(Speelal.)-Tlie merry fight ia now on. George W. Berge having today accepted the filing made for him yesterday a a candidate for the democratic nomination for governor. This is not the first time that Mr. Berge has tried to break Into the execu tive office. In 1904 he put up a fight for gubernatorial honors against John It Mickey, but 1st out. In 1908 he was again candidate, but the democratlo convention selected A. C. Shallenbergrr and was elected. In 1912 he again looked with, longing eyes toward the Job, but with a magnanimous spirit stepped aside In order to give Metcalfe a chance to beat Morehead, but Metcalfe failed to come up to the requirements. Another Instance. Iivl914, Mr. Berge cast his weather eye on the gubernatorial chair and tried con clusions with Governor Morehead, but his fellow democrats said him nay and he went down to defeat, polling only 11.301 votes, while the governor was chasing merrily along with 39, DM. Metcafe was runer up with 12,373. With both Berge and Bryan In the fight for the place, it will now be up for the fellows, who have been shying at the water wagon to find a candidate who wouldn't know a water wagon If he aw It. Applications for the job will be thankfully received, but the sooner they come In the better. Grace Ham for Senate.

Senator Grace has served two terms and was one of the fighting; mem bers of the last session. He was the senator who walked halt way across the chamber in a red hot discussion with Senator Howell of Doug las at the last session' and, shaking his fist at the Omaha member, told him he could not put anything over on the dear people as long as he could stick his 240 pounds In the way, and the senate didn't'.

Feb. 4.-(Speclal.)-Apple growers, apple sellers and retail mer chants had an Inning before the State Hallway commission today In an attempt to agree on some system or charge to be made for freight cars used by apple shippers in the distribution of fruit. It Is the old trouble of charges for cars used for peddling, and this hearing Is simply a continuation of other hear ings. Byron Clark, solicitor for the Burling ton, was the only representative of the railroads present. He was asked to speak first, but thought that the shippers ought to make some figures which they believed to be reasonable for the use of the cars. He said the Burlington was willing to make a test of the matter for a year on any reasonable demurrage charge and se how It would work out. He said the trouble was In fixing the j charges, for (he different classes of goods. t'sl Khwrtnue Plays Part. foul dealers and like shippers thought they should be exempt from the charge. Car shortage was spoken of by Mr Clark, who said that a very recent check ing showed the Burlington had about t,5 cars out of service by reason of being held, and this made the question a very UVe one for his company. He Insisted the shippers alfd retailers should make some rale which they though would be light, and the Burlington would endeavor to come to a fair consideration of the rate. One man asked Mr, Clark If the Bur lington cars were not being used to haul munitions of warfare, but was told that they were not, as there were no muni tions factories on the Burlington, and no cars were being' used that he knew of for that purpose. Instance Front lovrt. Chairman Clar.e of the commission said that the interstate commission had refused to suspend the order of the Iowa oommisfllon, wuteh practically covered the same point as that In controversy. They had a charge of SI per day for the first two days and 12 for each day thereafter. rrea Dlers of Madison, representing the . recall merchants' .association, did not see why such a practice as furnishing cars to peddlers should he in rffect. If H on. 1 1 wanted soino arrangement wlili h would treat all alike. "If we use lalliosd propeily, we oiilit to be will Ins to pay for l(," sHld Mr. llsinard. era 1 others spoke on the situation Idt rliig the session and there appeared to bo kciicisI feeling that some sort of chaige which would be fair to eer I bod) and whK h would be large enough J to (aiiKe holders of cars to make an pr iori to get inem unloaded as soon as possible, noi Id he the proper thing to put in forte. It never had been started he thought such a thing would be cnnstdi-rrri pie posteroiis If agitated now. Mr. Oustafson, representing tie Fann ers union, thought tho utcrrhanis of tho towns were trying to build a stonewall about their business, lie said I hey had been doing for years what the farmers wanted to do now. "We are with the merchants, and wot are with the railroads In an effort to I fix up this matter." he siiM. 'and if you Commissioners do not do something t ward fixing it up. you st.ind in the way of progress." lie said that hl organ- Isatlnn was for getting the cars unloudel j o they could be used again and was) ' more interested In that than iinythimr ' else. Prdiller'a Kaniilr. J. Frank Ran- of Omaha, of the Be- ! tall Merchant' association of the slate, said he was pleased with Mr. Gustaf- ' son's idea and the retail me chat It would ' be glad to pay the same ueteutlon ; charges on cars ns the transient was j charged, lie revh-wod toe action of the Itinerant peddler who came into n town' and sold an inferior grade of apples for , lesa than the merchant who had stocked ; iup with a car of first class fruit. He said that buyers of the interior fruit invariably discovered when too late that they had really paid much more for the fruit than If they had bought first class stuff, as sold by the telall merchants. He said that he recently look a trip out In the state and discovered In three small towns a total of eighteen cars of fruit on the tracks for sale, some of pears, some peaches and other fruit which would not keep, and more than possibly could be consumed by the communities) In which the cars were being held. A week later he returned through these THIRTY CASES ON JOHNSON COURT DOCKET TMCfMSKll. Neb., Feb.
