JOSLYN Will REBUILD PLANT
President of Chemical Reduction
Company Discusses Fire.
CERTAIN IT WAS INCENDIARY
New Plant Will BE. Nearer In and
Larger Tban ola, which Was
Largest Lithia Factory In
World.

George A. Joslyn. president Of the West
ern Chemical Reduction company, whose
plant in East Omaha burned to the ground
Saturday morning. arrived in Omaha yes
terday from a short trip in the east. Mr.
Joslyn said that it was too early as yet to
say anything definite, but that 1t was
certain that the company would rebuild
and within a short time. The new plant
will not be located on the old site, but will
be nearer I'm to the city. It will be con-
siderably' larger than the old one.
II am at a loss to understand" said Mr..
Jaslyn, "how the fire broke out. 1t must
have been incendiary, as we had no com
bustibes or inflamable material in the
building, having closed down the plant for
repairs"
In the Western Chemical Reduction COM
pany Omaha can lay claim to the largest
lithia mandatory in the world. The com
pany has been producing over 1900 pounds
of lthia every year. which is about 80
per cent of the worlds consumption.
The company also manufactures lithia
carbonate and some by-products such as
sulphate of soda and supplies a large num-
ber of special plants with the compand
The ore reduced is shipped from the Black
Hills The company was established in
Omaha four years ago.

Ballinger Endorsed
in Wyoming
Text of Resolutions Adopted by the
State Convention Held at
Rawlins.

CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Sept. 1s-(Special.) y
One of the resolutions that met with most
popular favor at the recent republican state
convention at Rawlins, Wyo., was one en-
dorsing the administration of Hon. Richard
A. Ballinger, secretary OF the interior, The
resolution in full, which was adopted unani-
mously, as follows:
Believing that the secretary OF the interior
has been actuated by a desire to faithfully
serve the entire people of the United States;
that his administration has plainly evil
denced his recognition of the varied inter-
ests dependent upon the faithful and i'm
partial conduct of his office, and that his
department Is endeavorlng 10 observe close
ly the spirit and letter of the law, we de-
sire to express our entire confidence in has
integrity and ability, and deplore the un-
warranted and unjust attacks upon his
character and his public acts
Judging by what has already been said
by the democratic press of the state, the
democrats will make this resolution the OBJ
jects OF their attack, and will take sides
with Pinchot and Garfield, leaders Of the
attacks upon the secretary of the interior.

UuliSts Will

For Governor
Much Speculation in State Over
Action Of Party at Committee
Meeting Tuesday.
fFrom a staff Correspondentl


LINCOLN. Sept. 1s.-(Special. )-Consider-
able interest attaches to the coming meet
ing Of the populst state committee. which
Chairman Manuel has called for next Tues
day, at the Lincoln hotel.
Up to this time the names Of the com
mittee have not been published and very
few people know the personnel Of the com
mlttee. The list has not yet been given to
the newspapers and it is probable that
Chairman Manuel and Secretary Walrath
have the only authentic lists of names
Walrath kept the record Of the Grand
Island convention and that part of tho
proceedings in which the committee was
named was not given publicity insofar as
the state papers were concerned.
So, unless Manuel and walrath know. Il
is not likely that anyone knows just what
the committee will do in regard to selecting
a candidate for governor. Manuel Is
anxious to indorse c. II. Aldrich. the re-
publican nominee. as he Is committed tc
county option which was endorsed by the
populist convention Others on the com
mittee, 1t is reported, want TO indorse q
member of the populist party and T. II
Tibbles is being mentioned as a probable
candidate. Elmer T.. Thomas Of Omaha
has sent letters to members OF the com.
mittee or to popullsts asking them TO line
up for Aldrich.
II the populists do lndorse Aldrich Il
probably will help MIR, Bryan light with
out being so Irregular, as he has always af
filiated with the populists when can
didate.
In the meantime. a statement is due from
Mr.. Bryan within few days so it is saiC
on reliable authority.

MANY DISLIKE PRIMARY LAW
State Officers Free in Expressions
About the Act.
WHAT SOME OF THEM THINK
Attorney General Calls IL Mon
ssroaity, whtle Governor sha1Ien-
berger's views Are Not All
Given to the Public.
CFrom a staff Correspondent.)

LINCOLN, Sept. S.-(Special.) )-Nearly
everyone around the state house Is talking
about the state wide primary law under
which the present candidates for offices
were nominated and so far there is not a
state officer who has one word of COM
mendation for the present measure.
Attorney General Thompson referred to
IL yesterday as ''monstrosity," while Gov
ernor Shallenberger has repeatedly con-
demned il, saying on one occasion that he
should have recommended that it be re-
pealed by the late democratic legislature,
which was responsible for 1t In its present
form.
Other state officers, including those who
were nominated under it, have expresse
themselves as have the two officers mem
toned. Some insist that the law should be
repealed in it's entirety, while others be-
lieve that the return to the old convention
system should be by degrees and very grad
ual.
Secretary of State Junkin is OF the opinion
this legislature should amend the law so
that 1t does not apply to candidates for
state offices, but that delegates to a nomi-
mating convention may be selected at a
primary and that other than candidates for
state offices be nominated as at present. 1t
is his opinion that the Legislature will not
consent to repeal the law in its entirey, but
that 1t will take the first steps which are
to finally result in doing away with it
Omaha daily bee., 1910-09-19
some Want Change.

State officers realize that 1t will be
hard matter to repeal the law for the rea-
son that those who have been nominated
under its provisions and elected TO the legis-
lature have no very great protest TO make
at it's operation. But on the other hand
there will be many members Of the legisla-
! ture who spent sleepess nights worrying
over a nomination due to the wiping out Of
party lines in the late election, who other
wise would have had little cause to worry
These will insist on a change.
! In the First congressional district there
was never very much doubt in the minds OF
the friends of viii Hayward that he could
easily secure a nomination at the hands Of
/ the republican voters, but the fact that so
many of his friends were in favor OF the
nomination OF Mayor Dahlman or some
other democrat on the ticket, caused them
much worry and his fight was to keep the
! republicans in their own party at the prl-
mary.
| In other Instances men failed OF nomina-
ton by reason of republicans who opposed
the county option plank in the republican
! state platform and knew Of no other way tc
express their protest than In voting the
democratic ticket.
