LINCOLN, Nov. 4. (Bperlnl.) The re
publicans of Lancaster county will wind
up the campaign with one of the biggest
meetinga yet held In the county Monday
night. Former Senator Thurston and
Elmer J. Burkett will be the speakers and
the Oliver theater has been engaged for
the occasion It Is provable that some of

present. This werk has been one of great
' activity all over the country and meetings
have been held In many of the smaller
towns every night, speakers having been
sent out from here. The truth about the
revenue law Is being told to the people and
the effects of the misrepresentations of
the workings of the law made by the fu
lontsts Is being shown up with the result
that the campaign of falsehood Indulged
In In thia county will react against the
f unionists.
The letters being sent out by the fusion
Ists making a comparison of the taxes
paid this year with the average taxes paid
during the last three years previous to
the enactment of the new law .are being
followed by statements sent out by the
county committee showing the truth as
shown by the records. The plea made by
William J. Ilryan for a repeal of the law
because It taxed his wife's rings, made In
a speech a couple of days ago, has cre
ated aome amusement and much disgust
here, that a man twice a candidate for
the presidency should want a law re
pealed because his wife's jewelry was as
sessed. Another statement that has caused much
amusement here and that shows the utter
lack of a knowledge of facts was made In
the World-Herald this morning editorially,
That demo-pop paper charged that the
fire at the Norfolk asylum and at the state
penitentiary was caused by the Incompe
tency of those In charge, under the Mickey
administration. Both fires occurred be
fore Governor Mickey was even a candl
date for the office which he now fills. The
republicans here look on that charge of
the World-Herald as being In keeping with
Its usual methods.
According to the records In the hands
of the county assessor the past year has
been a most prosperous one to Q. W.
Berge or the new revenue law has dug
up much property that he has, heretofore
kept burled. Last year . he returned his
personal property at 1150 of 'which 1100
was for household goods and $50 was for
library. This year his personal property
was returned as follows: Household goods,
$1,000; buggy, 25; horses, $200; safe, $25;
typewriter, M; accounts, $500; money,
$1,000; library, $1,500; watch, $10; making a
total of $4,310. He will be taxed on one-
fifth of that amount or, $865. It Is sup-
posed that the new revenue law has done
some digging up of smothered property In
this case.
City Campaign Starting.
A forerunner of the campaign to be made
In this city next spring for city offices
came this afternoon In the shape of com
plaints filed by Rev. Batten, pastor of the
First Baptist church, against the owners
of a number of houses of 111 repute. The
complaints were filed against Mrs. Sarah
O. Hart, for leasing a house of Josle
Washburne; Charles E. Selfert, a harness
maker, backed up the start made by the
minister by filing a complaint against Rose
Klrkwood for owning and running the same
kind of a house and against Matilda Pet
erson for leasing a building to Dollle Pal
mer for Immoral purposes. The penalty
for leasing a house for Immoral purposes
is a fine of $100 or six months In Jail, or
both fine and Imprisonment. .
The complaints have been expected for
some time and it Is the beginning of a
fight that will be kept up, it Is stated, until
after the spring election. Rev. Batten and
Other ministers. It Is claimed, are going
after the scalp of the present city ad
ministration, which the church elected, and
the fight promises to be one of the most
stirring that Lincoln has seen for some
time.. 80 far the names of a half-dozen
men have been mentioned for mayor, but
the work of the ministers has been done
rather on the quiet.
. . Prison School Is Assured.
The establishment of a school at the
state penitentiary seems now 'to be as
sured and before many months have passed
the convicts will have been enrolled as
students. Secretary John Davis' of the
State Board of Charities and Corrections,
who has been working up sentiment for the
school, stated this morning that a meet
ing of the interested parties would be held
November 22 and plans for the school
finally adopted. The cells will be lighted
with electric lights and the convicts will
be allowed to study at night. The con
victs who are capable of teaching will be
pressed Into service as Instructors. The
penltentlaary already has a llbraary of
1,300 volumes and the number will be In
creased along with the starting of the
school. '

at his rise In the political world. His first
great coup over the Harringtons and other
populists who got his scalp because he
was forninst Bryan and sixteen to one,
was when he got his picture taken with

for about half an hour on the Philippine

of republicans drove from eight to twelve

Attorney General Wells of Arizona haB
received a private letter from Phoenix
Btatlng that Governor Brodle has quietly
left there for Clifton and Morencl. under
orders from President Roosevelt, to gather
up the forty orphans recently taken away
from the Sisters of Mercy, and to prepare
at once to return thern to New York.
Since the sisters were forced a few weeks
ago to give up the children to Clifton
and Morenel white people they have taken
the matter before tho president. They
allege that a majority of the forty orphans
are now in the custody of disreputable peo
ple, some being keepers of grog shops and
bawdy houses. The letter received by At
torney Wells Is the first authentic Informa
tion bearlt g on the movements of Governor
Brodle, who left Phoenix without making
his purpose known.
Forty orphans were brought from New
York to be placed with Mexican families.
They were taken by force from the Mexi
cans by whites, the latter threatening to
lynch an agent of the sisters. The gov
ernor is nald to fear trouble when he tries
to take the children and has Instructed
Captain Rynnlng of the Arizona Rangers

disturbance that may arise.
