DALzELL WINS AND LOSES
Nominated for Congress, but Beaten
for Convention Delegate.
PENNSYLVANIA PRIMARY RESULTS
Only One Congressman Fails of RE-
nOminRtiOn-DemO Dele
cation VIII BE Unin-
structed.

PITTsBURG, Pa. April 1S.-while sew
eral days time will be necessary to obtain
official information and figures of Satur-
days primary election, conditions warrant
the following brief general summary:
Notwithstanding bitter factional fights
within the republican party a majority OF
the regular republican candidates were
noniinated; the leaders of both factions
were eliminated, and younger leaders are
now discussing harmony All but one OF
ten western Pennsylvania republican con-
grcssmen were renominated, Congressman
Achcson being defeated in the twenty
fourth district by John La Tener, grand
exalted ruler of the Elks. Senator Penrose
will be supported for reelection by prac-
tically all the assembly candidates.; dele
gates to the state convention will instruct
for Senator Knox for the presidency, while
the delegates to the democratic state con-
vention viii probably be successful in
sending uninstructed delegates to the Den
yer convention.
One of the surprises of the election is the
defeat of Congressman John Dalzell as a
delegate to the republican national con-
vention, notwithstanding the fact that he
ran ahead of his opponents in the congress
sional fight.

DEPARTMENTS CROWDED
Senator scott Crittcires Legislative
Economy that stints Money for
Actual Needs.

WASHINGTON. April 13.-The needs of
the government for more office room In
the District of Columbia was the subject
of a speech by Senator Scott of West Vir-
ginia, chairman of the committee on public
buildings and grounds, in the senate today
Mr.. Scott's remarks were addressed to the
bill authorizing the purchase of large
tract of land on the south side of Penn
sylvania from the capitol to the White
House for sites for public buildings
He severely arraigned the. legislative
economy which refused to make an appro-
priation for the needs of the government
and salved their counsclence by claiming
to be 'watchdogs of the treasury" and al
ways being on the alert to protect the in
terests OF the people.
Senator Scott showed that in the last
ten years the rent paid for buildings used
for government purposes in the District of
Columbia had increased nearly three times
from $176,OOO in 1897 to $4,000 in 1907. He
argued that $4,000 represented a 2 per
cent rate of interest on $2OO0OOO and that
this latter amount would build all the
departmental buildings needed by the gov
ernment.

opposite views and advised caution.
Despite.the suggestion OF several conserva-

TALK OF ILLEGAL ELECTION
South Omaha City Council Contem.
plates Contest Based on
Omclal BIunders.

In session TO canvas the vote of last
Tuesdays city election the city council of
South Omaha contemplates declaring the
election to he Illegal
The three reasons suggested by the demo-
cratic city council for declaring the cleo
tion illegal are all because of plumbers
made by democratic city officials, and
much amusement has already been caused
by the discussion of the remarkable care
lessness Here are the reasons:
!. Hours Of the primaries were not strictly
observed.
2. Election notices were not properly is
sued and advertised.
3. Property owners did not properly
qualify as voters by showing tax receipts
at the polls as required by law.
Just what viii be the outcome OF the
proposed contest is matter OF conjecture.
Thomas Hoctor democratic mayor holds
the office. and IL a successor has not been
elected Hoctor may still hold, but the opin-
ion prevails that Frank Koutsky, repub-
licen, will be entitled to take charge of the
office until the matter is settled by the

Little Probability New York Demo-

Gratis VIII Instruct.
NEW YORK. April 13.-That the demo-
cratic state convention, which will meet
here tomorrow. will vote to send an un-
instructed delegation to the national con-
venton at Denver in July is probable. The
followers OF William j. Bryan are planning
to upset the organization program IL pos
sible by the introduction of a resolution
endorsing Bryan, and while it is not ex-
pected that they will be successful their
action may precipitate a lively fight on
the floor of the convention. Chairman
William ]. Conners states that It is un-
likely the convention will adopt a platform,
leaving that to the national. state con-
vention without a platform would be a
unique departure from customary proceed
ure.
The state committee already has gone on
record as opposed to an instructed delega-
tion, and the organization is expected to
have its own way regardless of the Bryan
element in the convention. Among the
names mentioned as delegates-at-large were
Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany
Hall; Chairman Conners of the state COM
mttee, Lieutenant Governor Stuyvesant
Chanler. Alton b. Parker. John b. Stanch-
field and Mayor George b. Mcclellan.
Mayor Mcclellan, however, said today that
he had decided not to attend the national
convention. The mayor said it would re-
quire about two weeks to make the trip
ana that he is too busy to spare the time.
Thomas Carmody of Penn yam will be
selected as temporary chairman and will
address the convention tomorrow Com
mittees will be appointed at the opening
session and an adjournment will then be
taken, possibly until Wednesday. The re-
election of Chairman Corners by the new
state committee is predicted.
1t was reported today that Lieutenant
Governor Chanler will not be a candidate
for delegate-at-large to the national con-
venton.
