very much out OF keeping with his we'll |

More Candidates File.
@. s. Kennedy filed yesterday as a re-
publican candidate for city clerk. He ls
the first one of the republicans to file for
that ONCE J. j. Gillin. democrat, fled
about week ago. They are the only can

| Information on Bonds wanted.
| A communication was received from Spit
ger Il CO. asking for additional 1nforma-
| ton with regard to the posting OF notices
| In so far this posting concerns the
transcript history of the city hall bonds
| in which the company Is interested. 1t Is
one of the minor points which it is thought
might affect the validity of the issue. Clerk
Giln telegraphed an assurance that the
proper notices had been published and
! posted, and followed the same with a writ
! ten testimonial covering all the points In
/ question. The Packers National bank drew
a draft for the first installment yesterday.
This was $4,000. and the balance will be
paid in similar installments at the end OF
each thirty days.
Republican Club Meeting.
There was a good crowd and plenty Of
enthusiasm at the meeting of the Good
Government Republican club last night.
BY s o'clock several had to sit in the win
dows The membership is getting in line
for some very good work during the bal
ance of rhe spring campaign Last night
the good-natured crowd was entertained by
several of the men prominent in local af-
fairs. but no candidates were selected for
support. II is not the object to put up
much OF a campaign before the primaries,
| as any fight within the ranks would make
the work at the close of the campaign SO
much the harder. The local candidates,
however, took some part in the questions
under discussion. Many were called out
by their friends.
Police on the Qui vive.
Pat Fitzgerald, Andrew Olaquist, Charles
Chandler and Charles Stickles were each
passed out fine of "a by Judge King yes
terday on charges varying from drunken
ness to vagrancy. They will all have to
put in time on the rock pile. except OLA
quist whose fine was RENTED. Aside from
the capture of Kerr early yesterday morn
ing and Miller at noon the police have
been very quiet That they are still little
strongly-keyed up is so noticeable in the
fact that every lonely hobo" who applied
for place to sleep was at once booked for
vagrancy. Chief Briggs is evidently on a
crusade against this class. The chief fur
Their was heard to remark that the police
were quiet on the matter of the closing
OF the saloons last Sunday but that they
would have working orders to. take a hand
in matters by next Sunday. Then the cases
OF infringement would be dealt with in a
severe manner.
1t is noised about that still another men,
Der OF the gang OF young robbers is wanted
by the police here. The chief got a long
=. distance call from Lincoln yesterday, where
the four members implicated are In keep
: ing and. though the chief did not state It,
|, there is reason to believe that the gang
has implicated another of the young men
of South Omaha. r
