SHORT BALLOT IS APPROYED
No One Seems to Be Found to Up

COMPLAINT IS QUITE GENERAL
Msltlr-HrHr ef Candidates ns
Effert of Hilling- Off Jnst
What Was Hoped Primary
Woild Do.
'Prm a Staff Correspondent.)
UXfOLX, An. 30. (S)xTial.)-If there
is anyone in tills "nrck 'o won " who
is satisfied with tho workings of the
present primary law thry are not push
Ins forward. It seems to he the. poneral
opinion that the inoro the law is tried
out the weaker it is shown to be, and
the man who can discover a better
method of conducting a system for nom
inating state officials will be entitled
to a great deel of credit.
One of the weaknesses of the present
system which is rausins a sreat deal of
criticism is the chance for a larpe army
of candidates lo get on the bnllot, with
the result that It take so long to count
the ballots that people almost forget
that there has been a primary. Nearly
two weeks have elapsed, and yet the
people of the state do not know the
result, except In a general way. and In
one instance the vote Is so closa that
it will take the official count to de
termine. Multiplicity of candidates has had the
effect of killing: off just what it was
hoped the primary would do, brlns th
people- nearer to the nominees. Instead
of the people taking more interest In the
selection of candidates they have been
bothered so much with the army of of
fice seekers that they have become dis
gusted, and the result la that they are
farther than ever away from the very
proposition for which the primary was
expected to aolve.
Leas Interest Shown.
Candidate", coming to Lincoln during
the last campaign were unanimous in
their belief that the people were dls
Kusted and were taking less Interest in
the selection of candidates for office than
ever before. "You can't get them in
terested in any of the ofifecs with the
exception of governor," paid one candi
date. "They take some interest In the
head of the ticket, but even on that
they don't seem to care very much. The
warm local fights in the different com
munities has a tendency to bring out
the vote, but If It was left to just the
proposition of selecting state candidates
alone, at the present primary election. I
don't believe there would be one-tenth
of the entire vote out."
This all goes to show that the short
ballot, as urged by The Bee, to the real
solution of the nominating proposition.
Much favorable comment has been heard
since The Bee proposed the short ballot
as the solution of the difficulty which
confronts Nebraska. The testimony of
tho candidates mentioned above that the
people take little interest in any of the
slate candidates below governor indi
cates that the short ballot fits into
the solution of the problem.
General Dissatisfaction.
Without criticizing the candidates nom
inated on wither of the tickets, there
is a general dissatisfaction expressed
alike by republicans and democrats. It
is the expressed opinion of men of both
parties, and they are not backward In
laying It outside of party circles, that
in many instances the men defeated for
Koine of the offices were better qualified
for the positions than thope who won.
This all comes from the fact that few
people, when they marked their bal
lot, were in a position to know of the
qualifications of the candidate and the
very purposes of the primary has been
defeated.
Around the state house the short ballot
seems to meet with a great deal of ap
proval. However, there seems to be also
a sentiment that those officers who are
to be nominated should be named by a
state convention, composed of delegates
jhosen at a primary held in each county
U the same time the nominations are
made for the county officers.
However, according to the sentiment
as voiced, it does not much matter what
kind of a plan the legislature may evolve
and pass, it cannot very well be less
satisfactory.

NEW TORK, Aug. Ho. Colonel NUkolal
Golejewskl, the military attache at the
Russian embassy at Washington, made
publio here tonight cable messages from
the Russian foreign office in St. Peters
burg regarding Russian war operations.
The messages were as follows:
"The Russian troops are approaching
the fortresses of Koenlssburg, driving In
the advance posts of tho garrison. Re
ports have come Into headquarters that
the Russian troops have taken possession
of the bridges on tho River Allc.
"On the Galician border a battle near
Tomasheff and Monastyrskaia has been
successfully begun. Further to the east
ward our troops are energetically closing
in on Lwow (Lembcrg), of which town
our advance troops are already in reach.
Our cavalry is actively clearing up the
country- in front of the advance of our
columns.
Division Dispersed.
j "On August 25 our cavalry, having over
taken an Austrian cavalry division to the
west of Tlehertkoff, forced tho latter to
ftght, dispersed it and took a battery of
horse artillery.
"On the eastern Prussian front on Au
gust 25. 28 and 27 a battle was continued
j near Saldau - Allenstein - Hisehofsburg.
where the enemy has concentrated the
army corps which retreated from Gum
blnnen, reinforced by fresh troops.
"Allenstein Is probably taken by our
troops. Tho Germans suffered especially
heavy losses in Mjhlen, between Austrode
and Medenburg, where they are In full
retreat. Tn the vicinity of Petrokoff our
cavalry defeated three German squadrons
reinforced by a company of cyclists. Of
the latter. 127 were taken prisoners.
"In Galicla on August 35 a series of
separate engagements assumed the char
acter of a great battle which was de
veloping in the southern districts of th
province of Lubln and Holm and in
eastern Galicla.
Realnirnt Almost Wiped Ont.
"At first the battle had tho rharacter
of a bataille dii r'econtre, but later on
many parts of the Austrian lines were
forced to take a defensive position. One
of our infantry regiments, In a hand-to-hand
fight, took the colors of, and almost
completely annihilated, the Eleventh
Gonwed (Hungarian) regiment. An en
ergetic advance is being continued.
"During the night of August 2.1. the
light German cruiser Magdeburg ran
ashore near the entrance of the Bay of
Finland. On the morning of August 3t
the Russian cruisers Paladia and Bo
gatyr, with torpedo boats, drew near and
opened fire. An explosion followed on
the German cruiser, which tore amld
ship. The Russian warships took off the
captain, two officers and 154 sailors; the
rest of the crew apparently made their
escape during the night on the torpedo
boats which accompanied the cruiser."

their usual meeting here during the stnte
fair. This has been dropped, not so much
because of Inability of the congressmen
to attend, as because of a feeling that
nothing would be gained by starting cam
paign work Just now.
Ilennltlleans Gain by Kltnatlon.
The republicans figure that they gain
very much by the situation which puts j
off the campaign. The democrats must
rely wholly upon disaffected republican
votes to get them the votes needed to
make a fair showing in the election. In
order to oigaulr-e a bolt attention must
be called sharply to It ami the people
must be thoroughly aroused over sonic
thing or other. Now the people of Iowa
are serene as to their own affairs and j
very well content with national affairs
hi general. ThlB means that hiost of the
voters will vote Just about as they have
been voting In the past; and as Iowa Is
normally republican by a plurality of any
where from K.000 to oO.OflO It ought to be
easy for the republicans to win oil over
the state.
Will net Additional Money.
While no steps have as yet been taken
by the Iowa banks to get any of the
fiat emergency current y being Issued at
Washington, based on commercial credits,
the banks here have received an advance
of a part of tho money, which the Ad
ministration set aside ostensibly for
moving the crops, lnn.-muoh as the crop
movement Is entirely stopped by con
ditions as they are there will be no real
need of tho money for this purpose, but
the Iowa banks have secured the money
in order that their bank accounts and
showing may be kept in the best of con
dition. It is expected that after a short
time additional money will be called for.
Kome of the bankers insist that there Is
no real need for any additional caah In
Iowa because the stoppage of crop move
ment has made It almost Impossible to
use money in the ordinary grain buying
business.
t.oori Work on the HlKlmays.
The state treasurer has just completed
distribution of a million dollars this year
out of the state treasury for the benefits
of the highways of the state. This is
th. proceeds of the tax on automobiles.
It. goes to the various counties of the
stato In accordance with their size and It
must all be usrd on the roads. The re
ports indicate that this year far more
work has been done- on the roads than In
any vear in the history of the state,
that the work la being systematized and
simplified and that before a half dozen
years have passed the state will have
luid a large amount of permanent road
In the country. The state highway com
mission has been remarkably active at all
times ami Is continuing the work all
through the season.
Attack on Nebraska Freight Rates.
It is rumored here that some formal
action will be taken soon to bring to a
head the controversy between certain
cltlen of Iowa and Missouri and the No
brar.ka Railroad commission over local
rates in Nebraska, and that a conference
will be held here at an early date to con
sider whst can be done. The commercial
Interests in Council Rlurfs. SMoux City. St.
Joseph and Kansas City are complaining
that the reduction of local rats by tho
Nebraska commission gives to Omaha and
Lincoln a decided advantage over them
in handling business to Nebraska points.
The Interstate Commerce commission
made a reduction in Ititerstates rates
which it was supitosed pla ed the tines
along the Mirsour! river on an etjualitv
In the handling of western business. This
was the result of tne suit brought by the
Iowa commission affecting western rates,
and It was felt that a fcettlement had been
effected that would remain. But It seems
that by reason of a reduction Id Nebrsska
rates there Is discrimination against the
cities on the eastern 1ds of the river.
They are now demanding that an appeal
be made lo the Interstate Commerce com
mission for an order to prevent th
alleged discrimination.
