Nebraska and Syracuse at Lincoln to
day attracted the attention of a large
number of the football fans of this
locality and cars were early in their
start for tbe capitol city, where the
contest was staged at the memorial
stadium of the university.
This game is one of the important
intersectional games of the season
and should be a- real battle as the
Syracuse team has a great record and
their passing and aerial work is con-
sidered among the best of any team
in the country, while Nebraska is
recognized by the football authori
ties as having one of the top-notch
football machines of the 1927 eeason,

New State Capitol
to be Mecca for the
Nation's Artists t
Paintings in the New Building to
Be Ready for Inspection by
Thanksgiving Week.
Lincoln, Nebr., Oct. 28. Nebras
ka's new state capitol will be the
Mecca fox Western artists during
Thanksgiving week, when the first
sectional convention of the Amer
ican Federation of Arts will be held
in Lincoln.
For many years the federation has
maintained a Western office at the
University of Nebraska, and when
this year an important step forward
was taken in planning western sec
tional conventions, Lincoln was hon
ored by having the first meeting:.
Some of the most important artists
and critics in the country, and par
ticularly those of the western terri
tory, will come to Lincoln for tbe
strsions on November 21, 22 and
22.
Nebraska's new capitol, which has
gained nation-wide prominence be
cause of its artistic qualities, will
be the chief interest of the visiting
artists. By Thanksgiving week the
paintings in the governor's rooms,
by Augustus Vincent Tack, will be
in place, and Mr. Tack has been in
vited to talk on the decorative work
he did for the new state house.
Indeed, one session of the artists'
convention will be held at the capitol,
given over entirely to study and dis
cussion of the building. There will
be a paper read concerning the or
iginal architects' competition, and
another on the general art of the
capitol.
But there will be other interests
for the visitors. Informal luncheons,
two banquets, a reception at the
Governor's Mansion, and other fes
tivities are planned. In addition to
this, some of the most important
travelling exhibition of the American
Federation will be shown at Morrill
hall, the new home of the museum
and School of Fine Arts made possible
by gifts to the University by the Hon.
Charles H. Morrill of Stomsburg.
Western art will be emphasized at
the convention. The most important
exhibit to be shown in Morrill hall
is a large display of western artists.
An attempt is being made to make a
demonstration of the Quality of the
western output.
"The eastern conventions have
bf-en very notable gatherings." rep
resentative of the wejstern office of
the Art Federation, "and they have
made it possible for artists, are pat
rons, and teachers of art to meet in
both formal and informal groups and
to stimulate each other to higher
activity. It is hoped to make this
kind of influence active in the west
ern territory."
RESOLUTIONS OF CONDOLENCE
Whereas, in the operation of Di
vine Providence it has been seen
fit 40 call from the scene of his earth
ly activity, Brther William Wynn

our order.
There fore. Plattsmouth Aerie No.
3C5 of the Fraternal Order of Eag
les, tenders to tbe bereaved family
its deepest sympathy in the loss of ?
kind and loving father and brother,
whose absence will be most keenly
felt. The loss of Brother Wynn is one
that brings sorrow to the members
of the Aerie and who share with the
members of the family the regret that
his passing occasioned.
Be It Resolved that a copy of the
these resolutions be spread upon the
minutes of the Aerie, a copy given
to the family of the deceased broth
er and published in the press of the
city, and that the charter of the
Aerie be draped in mourning in mem
ory of the deceased brother.

MEXICANS ARE DEPORTED
Houston. Tex.. Oct. 2S. The Hous
ton Post-Disnatch tomorrow will'
quote advices from Mission, Tex., de
claring numerous Mexicans, many
of whom have lived in the United
States for years, are being deported 1
to Mexico by immigration officers.
The advices said there were various J
reports that the Mexicans would be
impressed into the army or be sent
to colonize waste lands.
"According to a report in this sec
tion, members of the border patrol
were recently requested to ascertain
the number of aliens residing along
the border,"
the Post-Dispatch in-!
formant says. "This was miscon
strued or served to stimulate the ac
tivities of the immigration service in
ascertaining these facts rnd they
have been, according reports, mak
ing wholesale deportations of Mex
icans. Maes meetings have been held at
many points, the newspaper will say,
to quiet fears among thousands of
Mexicans living along the border.

Memphis Greets
Nebraska Champ
ion Boy Dairyman
J. Harlan Peterson, Guest of Cream-
ery Institute at Rational
aDrry Show.
Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 28. (Special
o the Evening Journal) Memphis,
'Down in Dixie" is being given the
"once oer" this week by J. Harlan
Peterson, of Valley, Nebraska's cham
pion dairy calf club member for
1927. Together with Btate dairy
champions from sixteen other states,
he is spending the week at the Na
tional Dairy Show and Tri-State Fair
as the guest of the Blue Valley
reamery Institute.
A big factor in winning the trip to
Memphis for young Peterson was the
record of his dairy calf club project
for this year which is said by the
state- club leaders to be the neatest
and most accurate ever placed on file
by a Nebraska dairy calf club mem
ber. Back of this record, too, is a
splendid piece of work as a dairy calf
club member and as a young citizen
in his community.
Harlan started in dairy calf club
work three years ago with a little
white Holstein heifer. At the state
fair this year she was the sensation
of the show. Last year he started
again with another purebred Kolstein
heifer. He has shown his stock at
the county fair every year and at the
state fair twice, nev$r winniny anw
thing sensational but always in the
money. Showing' cattle teaches
sportsmanship he has found, and es
pecially is this true when a lad has
to be content with seconds, thirds,
etc.
Harlan stands in high regard in
his community, and in his high
school, from which he graduated last
spring. Last year he won the Amer
ican Ltgion medal as the outstanding
high school boy at Valley. He in
tends to Ettc-iid the University of Ne
braska agricultural college, where he
expects to specialize in dairying.
Through club work and the help of
hir father, he is starting a purebred
herd on the farm and he wants all
the training he can get to make it
a success.
H0HE SEED WHEAT
TREATED THIS YEAR
A recent follow-up survey of re
r,u!ts of the Burlington Wheat Smut
special indicates that the practice of
treating seed wheat to stop smut loss
es has been greatly extended this
year.
This train which carried exhibits
demonstrating methods of treating
seed with copper carbonate dust for
prevention of smut was operated by
the Burlington and Colorado &
Southern railways in Colorado, Ne
braska and Kansas, in cooperation
with the agricultural colleges of
thene states and the Omaha Grain
Exchange.
F. L. Taylor of Denver, agricul
tural agent for these railroads, re
cently compiled information t from
registration cards which were given
out. to wheat farmers who visited
this train. On these cards 81.99 per
cent of the farmers who reported
stated definitely that they would
treat their seed to prevent smut this
year, while last year only 4C.C per
cent of these farmers treated their
seed.
Fifty-three and four-tenths per
cent reported that they did not treat
at all for smut last year, and Mr.
Taylor states that 3G.8 per cent of
those who did not treat reported that
they had losses in 1S26. All those
who reported that they had treated
last year stated that practically no
smut deeloped in their fields, fur
nishing good proof that cmut can be
eieminated by proper treatment of
seed.
"These figures wre secured from
icports f nearly 2.000 farmrrs scat
tered over a very wide are.?,," pdds
Mr. Taylor, "and, since almost 82
per cfnt of these wheat grews now
appreciate the value f treating seed,
we feel that the campaign was very
effective. This is further evidence,
too. of the progress) veness of these
farmers and of the business men in
tliete eornniunities who also cooper
ated with ' the Burlington in this
campaign to induce farmers to adopt
the practice of treating their seed to
prevent losses from smut."

Assume Control
Eeads Will Be Lopped Off by Poli
tical Ax When New Executive
Steps on Throne.
Indianapolis, Ind. With two more
or less complete staffs claiming con
trol, the official business of this city
nearly 400,000 inhabitants was at a
standstill Friday night.
Action in the Marion country su
preme court Saturday on an injunc
tion suit is expected to clear the way
either for Claude E. Negley or Ira H.
Holmes to become mayor.
Meanwhile, John L. Duvall, who
announced his formal resignation as
mayor Friday, spent his time raking
reaves in his yard after the city
council had pronounced the office
vacant because of Duvall's conviction
September 22, for violating the cor
rupt practices act. The council nam
ed Negley its president, as tempor
ary mayor pending selection of a
permanent mayor November 8.
Takes Office, Resigns.
When Duvall resigned his wife.
Mrs. Maude E. Duvall. claimed tbe
office by virtue of being city con
troller and next in line. Fifteen min
utes after taking oath of office she
reyierned in favor cf Holmes, who
had in the meantime been appointed ju
city controller. . ;
Negley got the jump on Holm'P:
Friday .by obtaining a temporary or
der restraining Ins opponent from at-jfj'
tempting the city's business. Holmes h
countered by sending iiis wife 6wn
to the city hail in the e:irly hours, f".
of the morning to hold down the of- j
ficial chair. ' i Pj
When Negley arrived he f ound ; f,
Mrs. Holmes in the executive ofiice. M
Nonpulsed, he stood around until
Holmes appeared. Mis. Holmes then
arose. The two claimants each drew
up chairs at the executive desk. The
doors opened and a crowd gathered
to watch the performance.
Joke Over Affair.
Negley and Holmes joked about
th& whole affair, addressing rich
other as "mayor" and otherwise f r
ing the situation funny. To many
city employes, however, it was a grim
event for, regardless of which man
finally wins, a few heads are due to
4be lopped off by the political ax.
Cotirty and fity Treasurer Edward
A Ramsey brought diet r to some rm
rdoyes when he announced he would
honor salary warrants issued under
the Negley "administration."
Wholesale firing and appointments
in various city department was the
order of the day for both Neeley and
Holmes. Each announced the make
up of a boavd of safety, board of
works and ctber departments.
Has No Plans,
Political observers saw in the back
ground of the whole situation a re
sumption of the fractional fight for
control of the republican party in
Marion county between the forces of
George V. Coffin an 3 O. D. Dodsm.
Leaving behind them all the tur
moil of which they were at one time
the principals, both Duvall and his
wife spent the day cuiftly. Mrs. Du

only a month, expressed delight at
getting back to her household duties.
