Tii ttUir Tilnt fans launched the
name of Geo L Sheldon for Governor
of Nebraska. Sheldon was defeated
two f ARm mm ht the brewers and the
limior element of the state, who tinder
liunl11 formed no alliance with the
tAmnrrn(A element. A man whom
the brewers can't use is fc good enough
man for governor of Nebraska.
.Tiulirn Evans of Dakota City in an
interview with the Lincoln State Jour
rial last week made the concession
that lion James P Latta would be his
own succesor. For his reasons, he
stated that Mr Latta's record was
clean, and that the discord in the re
publican party would also be the
nieaus of throwing votes to Mr Tiatta .
Pender Times.
Mr Evans denies making the above
statemeut, or anything like it, further
than that Latta would not be an easy
man to beat, which fact ail who know
the size of his cheok book will acknowledge.

Duenslng Farm House Burns
The farm house of Fred Duensing,
a mile northeast of town, was destroy
ed by fire early Tuesday morning.
The place was occupied by Fred
Krumwiede and family. The tire was
discovered about 3 o'clock in the
mornipg by Mrs Krumwiede, who was
awakened by the smell of smoke. She
aroused her husband and when they
rushed out of doors the summer kitch
en and coal house adjoining it were
nearly consumed and the main part of
the house was just beginning to burn.
I hey worked with almost superhuman
effort to save the house but with no
one to help them the fire soon was be
yond their control and they turned
their efforts toward saving what they
could of their household goods from the
greedy flames. They rescued a few
things but most of their goods went
up in smoke as the house burned.
The house was insured in the Farmers
Mutual Insurance company of Lincoln,
for $1300, which partly covers Mr
Duensing's loss. Mr DuenBing will
rebuild the house immediately.
Mr Krumwiede carried about 9300
insurance in the same company on his
household goods, which will in a mens
ure repay him for his loss.
J W Trnmble, state adjuster for the
company, arrived here Thursday and
is today adjusting the loss. '

New Steel Coaches On the Omaha
Road
The Omaha Road bus added another
feature to its "Safety System" in pro
viding .all-steel coaches aud smoking
cars, for passenger trains. At present
these new cars are iu the service in the
Badger State Express between Minne
apolis, St Paul and Chicago, but all
through trains are being equipped with
all-steel coaches as rapidly as they
are received from the car b'ulders.
The cars throughout are constructed
of steel, and are made not only fire
proof but a huge beam runs from one
eud to the other nnder the car, so that
they are built in a large measure to
stand the strain of collisions without
telescoping. The iloor of the car is of
concrete and the sides, roof and ends
of steel, and even the framework of
the seats is made of steel, bo theie is
scarcely any wood in the entire car
The inauguration of steel coaches
again demonstrates the progressiveness
of the Omaha Road in the adoption of
the newest ideas for the safety and
comfort of its patrons.

Davidson Bros. Co. had the money
they could handle it when the price suited them, and
they bought the entire property at the low price of abont
50 cents on the dollar.
Monday morning, May 9th, Dow and
