Mr., Kahn refused to make any statement
on the insurgency question after the next
election, but denied that he was making a
trip OF the west to find how the people Of
this part OF the country stood on that
question. The party has been on the road
one month, and in that time has covered
10000 miles OF territory over the Canadian
Pacific Great Northern and Hartman

MANYLEARN TO SPLIT TICKET
Instructors Are Kept Busy Teaching
the Trick.
MACHINES ARE BEING DELIVERED
Say They VIII he Ready
I'm Time for the Election Next
Tuesdny-Thres Are Used
for Practice.

Voting machine students clustered around
instruction machines in the county building
basement and the main corridor OF the city
hall Friday indicated that split" OF
scratched ballots Will be freely cast al
the election next Tuesday II the voters
succeed in mastering the intrtcacies OF the
machines. Similar indications were seen
in South Omaha, where 8 third instruction
machine has been set up.
1t Is estimated that 500 voters studied the
machines Friday. Many more hundreds
are expected to secure instruction Saturday
ana Monday. While the voters around the
machines Friday were not extraordinarily
numerous at any one time, they came
steadily, and there was hardly a portion OF
the day that eight or more voters were
not learning how TO vote" Few OF the
seekers Of instruction svinced intention Of
voting straight tickets Voting a straight
ticket on the machine is a simple matter
The voter simply enters the machine pulls
the party lever at the left and then throws
the overhead lever that records the vote,
Most Of the inquirers wanted 20 know how
tickets can be split on legislative, sena-
torial and congressional candidates,

More than a few voters spent as much

be mastered easily. Attempting TO vote
suppOsitional split tickets voters would be-
come confused and would appeal TO the in
structOrs two, three and even four times
for assistance. Some went away, saying
chat they would return for further insTuc-
zion before election Gay.
The machines used for instruction were
labeled with printed labels, just as they
viii be used next Tuesday. The machines
/ appeared 20 be mechanically perfect and II
/ appeared that n a voter 10 thoroughly
versed in the working OF the machine he
will have no difficulty in registering his

T.. F. r. Ridgway. custodian OF the voting

should secure instruction. He said unless
there is much instruction before election
day the business OF voting Will proceed
slowly.

IMPRESSED WITH THE WEST
Think, However, that More Roads
Are Needed and that the West
Must Provide the Money

Nine milnonaires and directors Of the
Union Pacific railroad passed a short visit
IN Omaha Friday while their special car
was being switched for the journey east
ward The capitalists were returning from
a lengthy trip over the Union Pacific lines
IN the west and were on their way to
Chicago.
Following were those who composed the
party; Otto H. Kahn, member OF the
Kuhn-Loeb company; l. F. Loree, presl-
dent Of the Delaware a Hudson railroad;
Alvin w. Peck, president OF the Mercan-
tile Trust company; Frank B. Kseoh, Eu-
gene Kahn. Martin Erdmsn, William
Whitehouse, Henry r. winthrop and Dr..
Joseph Frankel
IF what Is called the insurgent or prog
ressive spirit continues in the United states
At will undoubtedly retard the growth OF
this country and especially OF the west"
stated Otto Kahn, director OF the Union
Pacific railroad and several Hartman
lines and member OF Kuhn. Loeb & Co.,
the New York brokers.
This will affect the railroads and their
growth mostly, but the growth OF the rail-
roads Is essential TO the development OF
the west. The danger comes IN the clint
mating OF the small investor in money cir
eles. He 10 the man who builds railroads
