Passing of "Texas Jim" Dahlman

Mayor James c. Dahlman Of Omaha, has passed out
Of the picture. He had been chief executive Of the ag-
gressive and progressive Nebraska metropolis for 81
years. He recently had filed for reelection for his
eighth three-year term.
There was a time when he was Texas Jim" He
was a cowboy and rough rider of the cattle ranges
all the way from the Rio Grande river to the Mon
tana highlands.
He was feared and loved as one Of the best shots
and hardest riders on the western plains. He was 73
when death called him. he was the political idol Of
the people Of Omaha.
AS his body lay in state at Omaha city hall, thou
sands paid homage to the man whose name was q
household word in COW camps and western plains in
the long ago.
Texas jim" was a democrat. Fifty three years
ago, in a town in Lavaca county, "he got his man"
and those who knew him best said that he had
abundant proyocation.
He j~ourneyed from Texas to Arkansas, from Arkan-
sas to Wyoming. from Wyoming to Nebraska, then a
wilderness, and he found fortune as well as lame IN
the wild frontier commonwealth.
In 1906 he invaded the political arena. He was the
personal and political friend Of William Jennings
Bryan. He fought the battles with Bryan with
tongue and pen and would have used a gun in self de-
tense If it had been necessary.
Omaha was the city Of his adoption. He built an
organization. II was an aggressive organization and
It had a herman as its dictator and spokesman.
Texas Jim" was elected mayor. He was reelected
mayor.
He aspired to the governorship IN Nebraska. Dio
William Jennings Bryan lend aid and encouragement
or financial assistance or words of %eloquence in be-
half OF the candidacy Of his most loyal supporter?
He did not. He ditched Texas Jim" and Texas
Jim" lost the gubernatorial crown.
Then It was that the prince Of peace orators and
the daring rider Of the western plains parted COM
pany.
Texas jim had a flair for politics. He loved
Omaha and he loved its people. He fought the bat
ties Of the plain people OF Nebraska. He held the
reins Of municipal government q years. If he had
lived he would have continued to direct the affairs OF
the upper Missouri river city.
He attended all the national conventions begin
ming in 1896, he was a democrat Of the Jeffersonian
type. he was a regular and always bowed to the
mandate Of his party. He was a humanitarian OF
the 20 karat type, he never kicked the under dog IN
the teeth. he was the product of a civilization that
has passed away, and yet he was as modern in his
convictions and his politics as the fastest travellers on
the broad highway Of this new era Of mankind.
Some day the romance Of his early life may be
hammered into copy and then placed in cold type.
He had the material but he buried it. His secrets
were his own secrets and he lived his own life. He

tricia had to bow her head and ac-
quesce in silent misery and appre-
hension. Had she done something
she kept asking herself over and
over again, something she would re-
gret something for which she would
be blamed some day by Jimmy him
self?
No, she would then assure her
self, jimmy would never blame her.
He would know. would understand
why she had done IT. Anyhow, he
would never be the loser; she would
see 70 that. And besides. what else
could she have done under the cir
cumstanceS? She was beaten by
Maxwell-any further refusal on
her part to accept the man who had
been foisted upon her by a few
tricks OF fate and diabolical cunning
as Jimmy Blair would be utterly
useless. Such refusal would make
her look TO everybody save a few
friends who knew the truth. like a
stubborn. heartless fool. No, she
again told herself. she had been
given no alternative; she had done
the only thing left her 10 do.
And so it came TO pass that Pa
tricia Blair in coming into her own
was forced to countenance a deal
that robbed her brother.
