eould not be a candidate for railway com
mlasloner. notwithstanding he had been
Importuned by politicians to do so. Mr.
Caldwell said he was under the Impression
that the secretary of state intended to
compel the republican candidate to-go on
the ballot by petition because nona of the
republican candidates had filed tt fill a
vacancy. In this case he said he probably
would make the race, but If the secretary '
put H. T. Clark's name on the ballot as
the nominee of the republican party that
would settle It so far as he was concerned.
Mr. Junkln will put tha name of Clarke
on the ballot as the nominee of .the re
publican party, as he received the nomina
tion at the hands of that party.
I a vest I sat I a Wreck.
Railway Commissioner Williams and
Rate Clerk Powell left this morning for
the scene of the wreck on the Missouri
Pacific near Weeping Water to make a
personal investigation of the cause o - It.
The commission understands this Is the
third wreck on this road within a very
short time, which In the opinion of the
commission is entirely too numerous. A
short time ago the commission ordered
the Missouri Pactflo to repair Ha track and
make It aafe for travel. This work has
been going on. according to rejiorts filed
with the commission, but recently several
officials of the road called upon the com
mission and asked for more time In which
to lay heavier rails. The numerous wrecks
probably will result In an order compelling
the road to get busier a little faster.

NORTH PLATTE At a meeting of the
city council held this week two mile of
new uldewelka were ordered constructed
by passage of an ordinance to that ef
fect. Notice of this Is being given by
publication for the first time today. The
sidewalk improvement during the 'est one
and a half years has been simply mar
velous. If the property owners do i ot
construct these walks within thirty days
the city will do- so and the expense taxed
asalnst the lots. The construction of
these walks, which, according to the
terms of the ordinance, must be of ce
ment stone or some other permanent ma
terial, is aimed to aid In securing illy
free delivery of mail in North Platte.
To thla end also the city council has
ordered the city engineer to prepare a
map of North Platte allowing Ihe loca
tion of each houae in the city, and this
work will be begun at once by the city
engineer and probably completed within
three weeks. North Platte does not pro
pose to be found anting when it comes
to securing the good things which make,
for the aelfare and prosperity of the
city.
