Direct Primaries Without waiting for (ho legislature lo enact a direct primary ballot law tho citizen committee of Alliance who have called tho city primaries for next Thursday night have taken the initia tive and will nominate n ticket by direct primniy vote. A word about direct primaries might bo appropriate at this time. A direct primaty an pro vided for in the pall means that no verbal nomination for 'candidates for any office will be permitted. Instead tho primary will bo called promptly at 7 o'clock and a chairman and secretary elected. Also an election board of throe membtus who will act with tho chairman and sccretaiy rind voting will begin Every legal voter of whatever party may then prepare hiB ballot by writing on a slip of paper tho name or names of the person for each office who will in his judgement make the best officer. These will be handed to tho judge and the voter's name will be recorded by the cleik. When all have voted or at niuo o'clock the polls will close and tile vote bo counted. The party receiving the highest number of votes for any office will bo declared the nominee. This gives every man an equal chance to express his preference and every man tegardless of politics, ciccd or faction should come to the city hall on -Thursday night and express his choice by his ballot. The plan is so eminently fair that it meets the nppioval of all men who desiro a fair ballot and majoiity rule. If another platform than the one an nounced in the call is desired it is only neccssaiy (o elect a man who will out line his platform in opposition to the one suggested. Sewerage. 9 Our sistcr.town, Sheridan, is about to establish a sewer, system and have completed plans and specifications for seven and one half mile sewer system, tlio cost will not exceed $35000. If Sheridan can build seven and one half miles of sewer for $35000, Alliance can build five miles for $25000. ' Another thing, . Gillett division superintendent of tho Burlington at that place has se cured a halt freight rate on all pipe and tile to be used in tho system. Al liance can certainly do as well. Now if we can build five miles for S25000, let ns get at it at once. ' This is the time of year when the average man hates to go homo while his wife is awake for fear she will broach the subject of spring bonnets. Tup city council have so far failed to open a crossing across the tracks to south Alliance. The railroad right-of-wa is not in the city limit. If the raihead was in the corporation it might be different. This would be a good time to incorporate all of Alliance, it would be a good thing to include the railroad and all outlying suburbs into one greater Alliance. Colouado is still without a governor. And not satisfied with their own scan dals they try to saddle some of their mcan-ncss on Alliance. One member of the Colorado senate who had ac cepted a bribe of S750, claims to hail from Alliance. Yesterday Denver wired here to know about him and it was found that he was the fellow that organized a labor union here some years ago and then skipped. At the last meeting of the city coun cil attention was called to the fact that a bunch of boys are destroying the electric street light lamps, and orders were issued by the mayor to arrest and fine the boys who do it. Now boys there are other ways to amuse, your selves beside breaking street lights and if you are arrested on such a charge don't blame us. Better quit now. The receipts fro n water rents last mouth were less than two thirds of the expense of pumping the water, There is something radically wrong when such conditions exist. Who is to blame ? The meter rates are 8 cents per thousand gallons and the price paid for pumping is 7 cents. There is a big leak somewhere. The water com missioner should get busy and find the leak.

Washington, March 2; The Nebraska Stock-Growet& Association has remou strattd to the Bureau of Animal In dustry ngainst any order relating to the shipment of range cattle that would change the practice in vogue last year in western Nebraska. The secretary of that association in a recent letter to Senator Millatd states the livestock inspector having juiisdiction over the range of western Nebraska contem plates uiaking-a ruling to prohibit the shipping ot cattle for feeding unless each animal shall bo dipped, under a sttict construction of the regulations of the Animal Bureau. Tlio senator re ceived complaints lrom other big cattle growers of large herds. He presented these protests to the sccretaiy of Agri culture and also to the Chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry, urging that the contemplated action be not taken if it would cause financial loss to the cattlemen. Dr. Salmon, Chief of tho Bureau, replied that no inspector in tho field hedmuthority to make new rules; that tho report complained of lacked foundation: that it may have arisen fioin the letter of, February 10, written by' the Bureau to the State Board of Stock Inspection at Denver. Dr. Salmon said that the letter may have been misconstrued; that the de partment intends to bo reasonable and to do what properly can bo done to fa cilitate the shipment of cattle; that the position of the department is that it should either prevent tho shipment of infected cattle for feeding and grazing or else make no regulations whatever and leave the matter to bo controlled by the States; that such control was essential to the cattle industry, that mange last season spread rapidly; that feeders were losing heavily by buying cattle infected with mange but which did not show symptoms at the time of purchase; and that railroads were pros ecuted for- bringing infected animals into states not infected. In view of these facts tho department had required exposed cattle to be dip ped in a curative liquid before shipment. The department, however, fs always ready to review a specific case and if it appears that parties in any section have made proper elforts for the control of the disease and still are unable under the inspection rules to ship their cattle, tho department would "in a given case be willing to make reasSnabb modifi cation of existing regulations. Dr. Salmon wishes it understood, however, that It will not be easy to get cattle to market in the fall if there be iu any case ground for tho belief that the animals have been exposed to di sease. Senator Millard has given this mat ter his earnest personal attention in an effort to relieve the situation, and at the same time protect the states from the spread of cattle disease. The President's recent message to Congress bears directly upon the point of whether or not the government in spector shall be permitted to placard or condemn range cattle which may in his judgement have been exposed to dis ease. Bills arc pending to authorize such condemnation. Nebraska cattle men deny the power of the govern ment thus to condemn. Two cases in the Supreme Court are based upon their contention. Should the law pass, it would be necessary for the govern ment to appoint a large number of in spectors; otherwise the cattle industry would be greatly crippled. LAND ENTRIES.
