Call for Assessors' Meeting.
George D. Bennett, secretary of tl.e State
Board of Assessment, has sent out the fol
lowing letter to the various county assess
ors: For general Information snd Instruction
and for the protection of the taxpayers of
the state I snould like to suggest that the
various county assessors meet In this cLy
not later than March 10 at 1 o'clock p. m.
The State Board of Equalization aad
Assessment has no authority to call such a
meeting or to defray the expense, but it
will be of enough Importance to warrant
the expense of its assessor in order to pre
pare him for the work to be done ihls
year. Will you come?
Assessor Wants to Know.
The county assessor of Hall county has
put a number of questions to Secretary
Bennett of the State Board of Assessment
regarding the assessment of railroad prop
erty for city purposes. He wants to know
If he must assess the main line or Just the
branch lines; he asks what Is the value of
the road; the steel rails, cost of ballast a
mile, and what Is the annual per cent
of depreciation. Mr. Bennett simply called
the assessor's attention to the law and
then informed him that the Information he
wanted regarding valuation would be fur
nished In the report of the roallroada,
which, however, he Is not compelled to take
as conclusive.
Newspaper People Satisfied.
All of the editors and the editors' wives
and husbands of women eldtors managed
to get out of town on time today and tj
far as heard from every one waa satisfied
that he got his money's worth by attend
ing the meeting. Governor and Mrs. Shel
don, the Commercial club, Henry Rich
mond and Will Maupln and local newspaper
men were pretty generally complimented
for the success of the meeting, as were
those who appeared on the program. Col
onel John J. Ryder, deputy labor com
missioner. Is not sure Mr. Bryan waa cor
rect when he addressed the editors as Jour
nalists Ipstead of "newspaper men" In his
speech to the editors. In discussing the
speech Mr. Ryder said:
While listening to Mr. Bryan's talk to
the editors yesterday the thought occurred
to me that the Ideal he had In mind Is
largely realized In the newspapers of Ne
braska. For years 1 have been a great
newspaper reader and every week there are
several hundred local newspapers delivered
In this office which are gone through by
myself pretty thoroughly. In the list are
comprised dallies, semi-weeklies and week
lies, with a few monthly publications of
different crafts and callings. From a com
prehensive "examination, I can say that,
while Mr. Bryan's strictures may apply
with some force to eastern publications
which do not come under my observation,
our western newspapers are clean and con
scientious. Bowlbr Has a Solatloa.
J. C. Bowlby of Crete has proposed a
plan by which the democrats may get out
of their muddle without either smashing
the Bryan slate or leaving a lot of sore
head leaders at home. During the edi
torial meeting here Mr. Bowlby proposed
to a number of democrats that Nebraska
select eight delegates-at-large, to the na
tional convention and give each delegate
one-half a vote, and wherever there Is
a contest on In a district, the district Is
to select four delegates, each to have a
half a vote. Oklahoma has done this
rather than fight. It was told, and some of
the democrats here believe It would be a
good thing to work the same plan In Ne
braska. It Is possible, however, that even
eight delegates-at-large would not be suf
ficient to take care of all of Mr. Bryan's
leaders. Besides the slate agreed upon
and stamped approved by Mr. Bryan,
other names have been proposed as fol
lows: Mayor Dahlman of Omaha and a
member of the Jacksonlan club; A. C.
Shullenberger and Richard Metcalfe. The
name of Metcalfe, however, la used with
out the approval and over the protest of
the Commoner associate editor. A num
ber of leading democrats, however, be
lieve that Metcalfe Is more worthy of a
place on the delegation, regardless of his
own feelings, than any other democrat
in the state. If the men mentioned should
be put on the proposed slate, that would
still leave out W. D. Oldham, George W.
Berge. P. E. McKilllp. and a lot of others
who have political ambitions and who can
not be satisfied with a place as a district
delegate. Besides, the democrats do not
want to stand for three men from Omaha,
even If Dahlman is mayor. Bowlby, how
ever, it Is understood. Is going to throw
his plan upon the mercy of the party and
ask fur its adoption.
There Is no question now that It will be
Impossible for the democrats to keep Mayor
Brown out of the convention. Mr. Bryan
gave excellent reasons why he Is for the
mayor in a speech delivered at the banquet
riven to the editors here Tuesday night.
Mr. Bryan was telling the editors of the
r. any things he had to be thankful for. He
said when he begaji the study of law he
started out In the office of Mr. Brown In
Illinois, a lawyer of splendid mind and a
splendid citizen. When he reached Lincoln
Mr. Bryan said he lived across the street
from F. W. Brown, now the mayor, who
Is a brother of the man with whom Mr.
Bryan read law. He complimented Mayor
Brown and expressed his great gratification
In being classed among the lutter's friends.
Incidentally, the local papers failed to take
notice of these complimentary remarks of
the mayor of their city. It was announced
yesterday that Mr. Berge favored Mavor
Brown being a delegate-at-largo.
The county convention will be held her
next Saturday and It Is probable Mayor
Brown will have no opposition In getting
an endorsemert.

to his work in South Omaha, has become
one of the famous ones In Douglas county

plaintiff recovered H.&iO. Judge Kstt lie set
the verdict aside for a technicality and at
the fifth trial a disagreement resulted. At
the sixth hearing In October, VM, Boesen
