BUTLER CUTS SHOW PRICE
City Clerk Withholds License Until the
Full Amount is Paid.
RESULT is ADMISSION FEE is CUT
zimman, Father of the Ordinance,
says ~ H. Defective and
should BE Corrected
at Once.

Another circus license circus took place
al the city hall Thursday morning over ex-
tending exhibition privileges to the Sells
Floto shows. Before the matter was settled
the midday parade had been held up In full
flight by orders from City Clerk Butler and
the price of admission cut from 50 to IS
cents. When application for license was
made It developed that Mayor Dahlman had
signed a preliminary" contract to give the
show the right to do business here at $l25.
The ordinances call for a $500 license for
5O-cent circuses, but II is understood the
mayor was not familiar with the niceties
OF a subject that has stirred up the city
hall magnihcently two or three times dur
ing the last few years.
Last year two or three shows evaded the
ordinance by cutting a cent under half
dollar or a quarter, and thus splitting the
license rate i'm two. City Clerk Butler,
however. announced bluntly that II would
be $500 cash or nothing X anything APP
proa ching 40 cents was charged. After
lot Of wrangllng, notices to the police de-
partment and the hold-up Of the parade. the
circus people declared they would cut the
price TO % cents and the clerk issued the
$50 license.
Ordinance f. Defective.
Councilman Zimman. who is the father
Of the ordinance operative, said:
1T is clear the ordinance is defective and
should be corrected. The wording should
be changed so the prices run in an ascend
ing scale. That is. If more than rs cents is
charged, $500 license and so on
This time the free pass proposition didn't
seem to enter into the deal. Last summer
and the year before this was supposed to
be the real oasus belli underlying srgu-
ments on constitutional law and jurisdiction
of various governmental branches.
But it is up to the people of Omaha to
thank City Clerk Butler for cutting the
circus price in two.

state. Did you notice the Hitchcock organ
is already showing it's teeth toward Dahl
man in it's cartoons? This has aroused
further resentment and the Dahlman peo-
PIE propose to win out at the July pri-
maries If organization and hard work
can do it."
The mayor himself remains mute, but
that Hitchcock is cultivating peace is
shown by the fact that he entertained
Dahlman as his guest at lunch today.
Real Cause of the Fight.
Some further light on the situation
may be gathered from this statement,
made by a prominent democrat:
| ''The fight between Mayor Dahlman and
Hitchcock over the appointment of Tom
Flynn to the ONCE of street COM
missioner has more behind it than the
personnel of the appointee. The fight
dates back TO the 1904 campaign, and GIL
bert NJ Hitchcock is mixed up in it.,
though this is not generally known.
Hitchcock has been hiding behind Herd
man because he is anxious to get further
| political favors. In the 1904 campaign
! Herdman and Hitchcock were for Parker
and wanted to defeat a Bryan delegation
| to the national convention. They called
| upon Tom Flynn to bring in the Second
ward against Bryan, but Flynn refused.
| lie not only refused, out ne maze a nBnt
for Bryan and beat out Herdman in his
| own ward. Ever since that time Herdman
has been camping on the trail of Flynn.
! He tried to defeat him for the nomina-
ton for sheriff, openly fought him at the
| election, while Hitchcock In the World
! Herald gave him no support. Flynn
! knows this and knows that Hitchcock and
Herdman helped defeat him solely be-
cause he had refused to fight Bryan and
help them get Parker delegation from
/, Nebraska.
Hitchcock has been right with Herd
man in this fight against the appoint
ment of Flynn. He even went so far as
to demand of the mayor that Flynn be
| turned down.
When Mr. Hitchcock tries TO run for
| congress or to be elected to the senate
he will hear from his fight on Bryan. II
he thinks the Bryan democrats of Ne
braska and of Douglas county don't know
he is behind Lee Herdman in his fight
against Flynn he is badly mistaken"
Lee Herdman Denies IL.
Lee Herdman declares he is taking and
has taken no part in the Hitchcock Dahl
man Flynn fight and asks that his posi-.
ton be so stated publicly.
Il am not in this thing have not been

Stevens Castle at Hoboken, New Jer.
sey, Is a veritable ancestral castle rls.
ing from a sea OF modern dwellings, a
landmark OF stability amid change.
The farms Of the old New York
families have been changed into city
blocks and their dwellings either torn
down or become tenement houses. But
through all the changes OF more than
century the "Stevenses of Castle
Point" have kept their ancestral
home and, to a large extent, their
wealth.
Hoboken was an Island lying under
the Jersey heights when Col John
Stevens bought II at the close OF the
Revolutionary war. II had formerly
belonged to the New York Bayards,
from whom Bayard street is named,
but the Bayards being Tories, their
estates were conhscated, and John
Stevens bought the Hoboken property
from the state. On the only hill on
his new possessions, the present
Castle Point, he built his house in
the form OF stone castle, construct
ed OF bluestone and plastered on the
outside. lie laid out large park
around II and lived In almost feudal
style, while the settlement which Is
now HOboken grew up below his
castle walls. The John Stevens OF
those days was relative Of the Bay
ards who had previously owned the
property, and he built his new castle
on the site OF one which the previous
owners had erected and which had
been burned down by party OF
