the citt aud citizens square deal.
i Mcbride Hands IL Back.
George Mcbride. chairman OF the re
publican city central committee, yester
day gave out the following interview rela
. tive to an absolute misstatement Of fac
that appeared in yesterdays World-Her
aid:
THE statement made in this morning
World-Herald that the protest agains
engrossing the names of the nominee:
of the citizens progressive party upoI
the official ballot was signed and FLEE
by republicans, was a misstS:ement o,
fact. ....
Il have looked into the matter care
| fully and have examined the registration
books which are in the care Of City Clerh
Frank Good. The following names were
signed to the petition: Henry Schmeling
registered democrat. stock yards employee
Charles Reemer. democrat. butcher; Mike
Harvath. democrat. porter in a saloon
F. ]. Vomacka, democrat, bartender ir
the same saloon; Rudolph Yechout. demo,
crat and member of the school board.
mr.. Goods disclaimer OF having any.
thing to do with the protest, in view OF
the fact that the attorneys who appeared
in support Of the motion to throw out
the names are the attorneys who do all
the Good-Glliin legal work, seems ridicu-
lous. 1t is just the old familiar tactics
but I think they will fail this time.
IF the republican ticket is elected the
city clerk will spend his time In his Of
flee and there will be no shaving of the
city employees pay warrants. II the re-
publican ticket is elected there will be
no men imported from Omaha to fill the
treasurers office, nor will that official
have time to plan peanut politics. There
will be no salary raises nor term ex-
tensions gotten through the legislature
to perpetuate a gang OF officeholders
upon long-suffering people"

For two hours in the forenoon yesterday
the high school students filled the audi
forum while erstwhile schoolmates, now

The speech of the occasion was that
delivered by Perry Med. Wheeler, former
principal Of the high school. Mr.. Wheeler,
who is a representative OF some Of the
big life insurance companies and candi-
date for city clerk, told OF the trials that
an insurance salesman meets. His re-
marks were frequently interrupted by ap-
plause from the present and former stu

Wheeler was a favorite.
