State Pool to place the name of L. B. Day upon the ballot as a can didate for congress in the second district. Mr. Day is at present judge of the district court of Omaha. He is now occupying a non-political of fice, but his democratic friends pro pose to drag him into the limelight of partisan politics. They plan to have him defeat Congressman Sears or W. F. Gurley of who ever hap pens to be the republican nominee. There are all kinds of democrats on the petition. There is Mayor Jim at the head and not far down the line is William R. Patrick who used to be a different kind of a democrat, but always a democrat. Lee Herd man, and brother, W. II. Herdman, John F. Moriarty, George A. Marg- ney, Sophus Neble, jr., Richard C Hunter, Richard S. Ilorton are among the petitioners. Judge Day has twenty-five days in which to make up his mind and file an acceptance in writing. Judge Day was unknown in Omaha politics until about the time Judge George A. Day of that city stopped running for district judge and became judge of the supreme court. L. B. Day then became a candidate for judge of the district court and the name of Day proved, to be a winner in the polls just as it had been in the days of another Day. The two judges in this instance are not related by either blood or politics. The Dahlman petition filed with the secretary of state is accompanied by a "receipt for the legal filing fee signed by County Treasurer Otto Bauman. It shows that the fee was received from L. B. Day. G. P. North, an attorney of Omaha, was nominated1 last week by peti tion of another group of Omaha democrats who desire him to run for congress. He has not filed an accept ance. Senator P. W. Scott of McCook has filed nomination papers as a candi date for renomination upon the re publican ticket in the 29th senator ial district. 2 .Redaction in Tax tit Mow echve We Will Absorb Immediately on All Ford Cars the 2 Reduction in Tax Which Normally Does Not Become Effective Until Midnight March 28 th.
