.Outlawry. .
Democratic harmony reached ths burst

forco the .democratic pity, committee to
t!sue a call for a convention to nominate
flv democratic, candidates for the 8chool
fjoard and One democratic candidate for tha

' What the Petition Contains.
The petition sets forth that under the
law a convention should be called either to
nomnate ' Ave candldatea for the school
"board and the water board candidate or to
sleet delegates for a' convention to be called
to nominate these candidates. The peti
tion further sets forth that the members
of the city committee which acted In 190S,
"6r some "b't them' desire to control fhe
'selection of the candidate for the water
eommlssionerthip and are afraid to trust
the voles of the democratlo voters. Further,
that some of the committeemen chosen in
'l903'-who no presume to act are dead,
''Others hive ceased to' affiliate with . the
; democratic party; ' others have removed
Xrom'he wards in".wHl'ch they were elected
or have removed from the city. The petl-
rtlon, for. these and, other reasons, asks a

fr,v Connolly, "and. myself, aa Interested

Jhe water board. - For this reason we feel
that 7.000 or 8,000 democratlo -voters of this
city should have a chance 'to say whom
they wish for the place."
Rank Political Outlawry.
''This move by the' Jacksonlans Is the
nkest piece of political outlawry I ever
eard of," said a prominent and thoroughly
rate county democracy man. "Ih the flrat
.jlace, there Is no precedent for It, and then
it la wholly without reason. Why should
the democrats be asked or forced to recall
a' repudiated convention, a, convention
whose nominee for mayor ran third in the
race with the republican party split? That
is what Howell, the product of this Howell
convention-, did. He being renounced by
his party, at- the polls' meant nothing but
that the convention which foisted him on
tho party wan rebuked. Then why should
his convention 'again be called back from
pxt grave and permitted to sway again Its
gHastly -sceptre over the party T Might as
well go back four years or six years and
dig up i convention! - There Is no limit if
this thing Is allowed to go unrestricted.
"The Herdman-Howell lingsters must not

All of which goes to show once more the
beautiful, peaceful, spell of up-to-date har.
mpny that prevails In the camp of the
democrats on the eve of election.

"Go back boys." said Edgehlll, kindly, "go

boys went bark.
When the patrol wagon arrived with ex
tra officers the two submitted to arret
without the least show' of resistance. Both
acutely feit their shame and stood In the
middle of the room with their heads down.
Lynch backed away when - the handcuffs
were about to be placed on him, but that
was the only move either made.
Lynch works in the Union Pacific freight
yards and Miller' had been doing the same
sort of work but of late ha been out of a
job. Both are from respectable families
and no reason can be aaslgned for them
doing such foolhardy work. Mr. Ewoldt,
one of the proprietors of the saloon, who
h,as known the boys since they , were mere
children and who baa befriended them
again and again, was very much, affected
when he discovered who the burglars were.
"Why did you do It boys," he said with
a catch in his voice, "why did you do it?
t would have given you the money rather
than have this."
The money in the till, amounting to
$23.26, was found on the stairs leading to
the cellar where it had been dropped when
the young men found themselves trapped.

Ins; Day.
The public schools showed a gain In at
tendance of 200 on the second day, reducing
the disparity with last year's figures to
only 228. The biggest defection Is from
the Lake and Lothrop schools, both situated
In the district of the new Sacred Heart pa
rochial schools. The latter are accredited
with drawing away the attendance of about
178 pupils.
"The schools now are thoroughly organ
ized and on a working basis," said Superin
tendent Davidson. "There are no cases of
overcrowding and conditions generally are
satisfactory."

rounds of all kinds of business Institutions

If It la Imperative that the child should
work he is compelled to go to night school.

Insists upon the proper attendance during

year, but their cases have not yet been

BEATRICE SETTLES SUIT
Satisfies Old Judgments aa Outgrowths
.- of Bonded Indebtedness Created
for Paving Improvements.
The Judgments recently Issued out of the
United States circuit court against the
city of Beatrice and- its officials have been
satisfied and paid; the necessary evidence
to this effect having just been filed 4n the
United States circuit court.'
The case were those of the United States
on the relation of Chester B. Masslich,
against James P. Saunders as treasurer of
the city of Beatrice; The Bangor, Me.,
Savings Bank against The City of Beatrice;
The Tompkins County, New York. National
Bank ncalnst The City of Beatrice and
Chester B. Masslich against The City of
Beatrice.
These suits, representing approximately
$15,000, were the outgrowth of a bonded
Indebtedness .created by the city of Be
atrice for paving improvements during the
boom period of fifteen or sixteen years
ago. In the period of hard times fol
lowing the city was unable to pay the
Interest and bonds as .they matured and
consequently an effort was made a few
years ago to compromise with the creditors
by the Issue of refunding bonds at a lower
rate of Interest. A large majority of the
creditors of the city agreed to the proposi
tion, but C. B. Masslich, as attorney for
the Bangor Savings bank and the Tomp-J
kins county National bank, would not
agree. to tha proposed compromise. v
Several other cases were pending In this
court on the same Issue against the city
of Beatrice, but these are practically dis
posed of now, the satisfaction of the sev
eral judgments being a praotlcal dis
missal of the cases.

GUARDIAN NOT SATISFACTORY
Administrator of Estate aad Cnstodlan
of Children Object of Neigh,
bore Wrath.
A citation was issued this afternoon from
the office of the clerk of the county court
to James W. Kranda of 1818 William street
to appear Saturday morning and show
cause why he should not be removed as ad
ministrator of the estate and guardian of
the children of the late James Kranda.
This action la taken as a result of the
decided displeasure expressed by the neigh
bors of the manner in which Kranda has
performed the duties of his office. Wednes
day night a neighborhood row resulted
from a family affair In the Kranda home,
and the police were Invited to disperse al
most a hundred of the people living in that
part of town who had gathered and were
taking a more or less active part In a dis
turbance of - the peace. -
At the time of his death the elder Kranda
was a widower with several small children.
He left real estate consisting of two houses
and a life Insurance policy. The younger
mart, shortly after his appointment as ad
ministrator and guardian, was married.
There is said to have been much friction
since that time, ending in the outbreak ot
Wednesday night.
