Uaughter,) l said: That is exactly what
these people advise you to do When
Governor Thayer attempted to hold over
l said 1t was the sentiment Of
many prominent republicans in this
state that James E. Boyd should
take his seat, and not that the place
should be occupied by a man that had not
been voted for And SOM men OF consid-
cradle eminence have agreed with me. One
Of those was Benjamin Harrison. When
Harrison came to Omaha. as president, on
his way to the state OF California, he was
terribly embarrassed. Two men wanted to
sit with him in his carriage, one was James
E. Boyd n the other John NJ. Thayer.
Both claimed to be governor Of Nebraska,
so the president requested that neither
ride with him and rode with the mayor and
left the two governors to travel by them.
selves, but conidentially and privately he
expressed his adherence Of the whole busi-
ness, and said 1t was a great mistake. the
greatest mistake the republicans could
make, to undertake to take from James e.
Boyd the place that he had been elected
to by the people OF Nebraska, no matter
what the pretext. And the supreme court
Of the United States finally confirmed the
right Of Boyd and seated him.. The at
tempt OF w. j. Broatch to GUST Moores
from his office was utterly indefensible.

people should serve the people is sacred

What the Issue Is.
"Tba neraecution that foIIowad from that
day to this has been Of the same char
acter. AS l said before, l do not believe
that Mr.. Moores has any special right or
title to the office he holds. The people
OF Omaha have the right to choose whoever
they please and the republicans have the
right to nominate the best man they can
get, and when the man is presented who
possesses these qualities to a higher de-
gree, who can get more Of the common
people to rally around him and make sure
of his success, Moores will have to give
way. But until then II seems senseless
to Join in this hue and cry against him
and endeavor to make Moores alone the
issue of the campaign. In my
Judgment the paramount issue this spring
is the right of Omaha to govern itself.
Shall corporations rule Omaha or Omaha
rule the corporations, which? That is the
question that has got to be fought out In
the coming primaries.
Fellow citizens. 1 have given you some
glimpses Of the old machine and the new
machine. The old machine has ceased TO
exist. II has passed out, except as il stands
by the suffrage OF the people. Whatever
the republican majority in Oman wants
1t can have and 1t should have. 1t should
not allow itself to be dominated or dom-
ineered over by corporations. by police

POWER HOUSE EXPLOSION
Four Men Killed Outright and
 Fourteen Seriously Injured.
Seven Boilers Explode iU the st. Louis Transit Power Housei
 Fire Follows Explosion.

St. Louis. Dec. 22-Four men were killed and II are known to have been Injured fin an explosion which wrecked the Geyer avenue power house of the St. Louis Transit Co, Geyer and Nils souri avenues, at 5;i3 o'clock Monday afternoon. Some are missing and may be under the great pile of brick and twisted iron. Others ran from the scene of the explosion and went to their homes. In all probability there was not one of the thirty who were employed in and about the boiler room that was not injured in some way.
 The cause of the explosion Is not known. or, if known, those employed about the power house profess igno- rance. Seven of the IA massive boil CTS exploded so rapidly as to render the reports almost simultaneous. Brick and iron were scattered about for a radius of three squares. Adjoining houses rocked as if shaken by an earth quake.
 Immediately after the explosion a general alarm of fire was turned in. The department responded immediate ly, but there was little for the men to do beyond aiding in extricating the dead and injured from the debris. As quick ly as possible in the neighborhood of one hundred police were rushed to the scene to assist in the work of rescue. The news that there had been an ex- plosion spread rapidly. and the fam flies of the men employed at the power house hurried to the spot to learn the fate of their loved ones
 The crowd of anxious women grew momentarily larger, and it was with difficulty that the police could keep them from crowding too close to the shattered walls. As quickly as the in- jured were taken from the wreck they were placed in ambulanees and rushed off to the city hospital. Physicians had been hastily summoned, and did what they could to relieve the suffering They, as well as the firemen and police the explosion extinguished all the lights in the power house, and they were compelled to work for time in tota! darkness. being guided only by the cries of the unfortunates.
 The air was filled with shouts, and the occasional shrill and penetrating cry for aid served to nerve the rescuers to almost superhuman exertions.
 At two o'clock Tuesday morning a gang of 150 men were at work in the ruins. It was generally believed that the wreckage, and every effort was being made to find them.
