merchants, South Omaha, Neb.
South Omaha, Sept 5.-Under the
pressure of liberal receipts and the
break in Chicago Monday of ten to
twenty cents lower except on the
choice killers. We think stockers and
feeders can be bought at considerably
lower prices the latter part of this
week. We do not believe this heavy
run will keep up long.

House, last Thursday, in very plain
language, on his attitude on the state.
hood Fill. Regarding the manner in
which, Mr.. Brooks had gotten a bill
before the House, he said.
"The gentleman was not recognized
until he had first surrendered his con-
stitutional rights as a representative
of the people and crept into your pri-
vate room, Mr.. Speaker, there to sup
plicate you to extend to him your
grace.
"No member can submit any matter
to vote of the House until he shall
have first sought and found favor in
your sight. I he Constitution contem-
plates that the Speaker shall be the
servant Of the House. In defiance of
the Constitution you have made your
self its master. You have packed every
committee so that no bill can be re-
ported without your consent. Unless
you are willing, no member can move
to discharge committee from the con-
sideration of bill and take it up in
the House.
"You are an enthroned despot, sub
jecting the tights and destinies of this
great people to the dictates of your own
unabridged will.
"Who stands today between a pro-
gressive, enlightened people and the
Statehood to which they are entitled?
You sir Only you. You crack your
whip and a majority of this House
covers at your feet. You turn your
thumbs down, and the House deals a
death blow to plostrate, bleeding Ok
lahoma."
Here Mr.. Shackleford said he had
read in the morning papers that "Cn-

JOCKEY SHAW
IN D|SFAvOR

For the past few days a rumor has been
afoat in the rendezvous of turfmen that
Jockey willie" Shaw, who recently an
itounced his intention TO ride I'm Austria
next year. was no longer in favor here
with the turf authorities.
1t was for this reason, report said. that
he had determined upon change Of turf
base.
These stories help to clear up the Shaw
situation. llorsemen could never under
stand why the clever Jockey, one OF the
best In the East (and that means this
country. was willing TO give up a cer-
tainty here. where he was sure OF many
profitable engagements, for an uncertain
~ In a country where he Will be n stran-
ger.
It Is known mat tho Jockey club stew
ards have frowned for some time on the
connection in a business way. which ex-
listed this season between Shaw and sew
oral wealthy and reckless turf plungers.
While his riding. with but one excep-
ticn, has been of the gilt-edge Kind for
these men, the fact that his employers
bet so much money on his mounts caused
the stewards TO regard the jockey as any
thing but n valuable asset To racing. The
one exception to Shaws fine horseman-
ship of the year was his ride on Elcc-
tioneer In the Flatbush Stakes. This race
was so easily won by De Mund. a colt
regarded as being merely sprlntcr that
IL caused no end of scandalous talk.
Electioneer had lust won the Futurity
IN gallant style, but was beaten a city
block I'm the Flatbush. He was never a
factor i'm the struggle. Hts trainer, billy
Lakewood. never forgavc Shaw for the
defeat OF his horse and never agpin asked
him TO ride the colt.
