Annexation
Club Formed
Enthusiastic Organization Completed
! Having for Aim Union Of City
with Omaha.

The first real. enthusiastic club having
for its object the consolidation OF Omaha
and South Omaha was permanently organ
lied last night at South Omaha, with
membership Of over thirty men. Officers
were elected as follows President, e.
Erwin: vice president, c. F. Leppert; secre-
tary Elof Nilsson treasurer, William Nc
Guigan Much enthusiasm for immediate
consolidation was developed by speeches by
P. ]. Barrett, David Anderson and Jacob
Levy. The latter men were among the
most vigorous opponents Of annexation at
the last election. David Anderson said he
had opposed the movement to consolidate
both as to theory and practice but had
been convinced that II was a good thing.
He made the startling statement that al
though the returns showed a vote OF nearly
two to one against annexation, he. being
then in a position 10 know, was convinced
that the actual vote would show less than
100 majority against the movement He
said the election had been manipulated
grossly and in a way he never did or could
countenanoe
A case is on record and the statement Is
witnessed by a number Of men, showing
that on that day one man voted four times
against annexation and openly boosted
of 1t.
A press committee was appointed, Of
which Bruce McCulloch was made chair
man, and his assistants are one man from
each ward.
A committee was apposated to meet in
conjunction with a like committee from the
South Omaha Commercial club, which will
meet with like committee of the Omaha
Commercial club and representatives of the
Omaha Real Estate exchange.
The object is to agree upon a practical
plan of consolidation which will conserve
the rights Of each community. Each Of the
two meetings already held has shown a
growing enthusiasm. Another meeting is
called for Wednesday night at the same
hall, which is at Az North Twenty-fifth
street, South Omaha At this meeting Sc
| lection of a permanent hall will be dis

which will soon pass into possession Of
white settlers. To ascertain how this work
is progressing is the chief object of Com
missioner Valentines visit. He will also
look into various other matters of interest
TO the Indians upon the Grow creek, Chey-
enne Yankton, Standing Rock and Lower
Brule reservations before returning to
Washington. Mr.. Valentine will be in the
state OF South Dakota about two weeks
looking into affairs of Indians who are
still under the direct supervision Of the
United States government.
