WANT TULLY TO FILE
Many Friends of Charles Tally, Pop
ular Ranchman, Want Ilim to
File for Committeeman
Charley Tully, the well known and
popular ranchman, who is a staunch
Democrat, is being urged by his
friends to file for the place of nation
al committeeman to the national
Democratic convention from the
Sixth district.
Mr. Tully is one of the most wide
ly known men in western Nebraska
and his election would undoubted!)
be a credit to this district. He baa
been urged to enter the race for
state senator from the 28th district
on the Democratic ticket. It seems
certain that he would receive the
nomination without opposition and
that he would carry the district at
the general election.

S Mil II DREW CROWDS
Alliance's Clever Boxer Showed Him
self a Chftmploii In Ten Hound
Rout Last Friday Night
Tommy Smith, the Alllanle boxer,
proved hhr.self worthy of the title or
a champion by his clever exhibition
In the ring at the Phelan opera
house Friday night In his ten-round
bout with Cuy Buckles of Omaha.
The entire entertainment for the
evening was well managed and s
credit to the men who put It on. Ath
letic entertainments of this nature
had In the pnst received a bad name
but m go- d sired crowd attended and
everyone seemed well satisfied.
The first preliminary was a wrest
ling match between Maunler and Tra
bert, two of the Alliance fire depart
ment's athletes. The boys were in
fine shape. Trahert won by a fajl in
nine minutes.
The second preliminary was a four
round boxing match between Bud
Dlneen and Kid Mahoney, two Alli
ance boys who are clever and fast.
Tho boys will make top notcbers If
(hey keep up the game.
One of the most interesting and
laughable incidents of the evening
was the three-round boxing match
between the two colored boys, Joe
Gans and Art Davis. Cans formerly
boxed with Jack Johnson and easily
put it over Davis. The crowd was
kept in a roar from start to finish.
The match between Smith and
Buckles was the main event and was
full of thrills throughout. William
King, the "old time referee", refer
eed the bout in masterful style.
Buckles la fast and knows the game
but he was unable to touch Tommy
In a vulnerable spot. Tommy brought
the Omaha boy to the ropes time af
ter time and could easily have land
ed a knockout blow after the fifth
round.
Smith took punishment without a
murmur and always came back smil
ing. He seemed as fresh at the end
of the tenth round as when he start
ed in, while Buckles set-uied to be In
a state of near exhaustion and had to
be assisted from the ring by his sec
onds. Both of the boys were celan
fighters and did nothing to discredit
the game in Alliance. Smith has
made good and "is there with the
goods".

J. W. Outhrie FlnlKhes Checking Csd
Cox's Records for the Period
of Six Years
J. W. Outhrie, who has been em
ployed by the county commissioners
to audit the books of the county of
ficials, has Just finished work on the
books of Sheriff Cal Cox, for a period
covering six years.
The report as completed showed a
net balance due the county of $173.-'
67 and the amount was immediately
paid by Mr. Cox to the county treas
urer. Of this amount $97.16 represented
fees charged to Mr. Cox on cases In
the Police Magistrate and Justice of
the Peace courts for subpoenas serv
ed by various deputies which Mr.
Cox probably never received any part
of.
$3.24 more Is accounted for In a
few Incidental items including a dif
ference In mileage charges on vari
ous work done and the balance of
$73.19 was due entirely to the new
state law passed by the last legisla
ture and effective last June, making
changes In fees and In the amounts
allowed for taking prisoners to the
penitentiary and asylum. These
changes in fees and allowances by
state law, it seems, were overlooked
by both the commissioners and the
sheriff, and bills for this service pre
sented by Mr. Cox had been allowed
by the commissioners. Mr. Outhrie
discovered this error in his work as
auditor.
In speaking of the work on Mr.
Cox's books, Mr. Guthrie said, "On
account of the way the records had
been kept In the different courts it
was extremely hard to get at the dif
ferent Items. Many cases had not
been docketed. When summons were
Issued the filing case was made and
put away and the case settled with
out coming to trial, the various court
officials during this period of time
deeming it unnecessary to enter
such cases on the docket.
"To show that Mr. Cox was honest
In his Intentions there were 146
cases of this kind In the different
courts, not entered on any docket,
that Mr. Cox collected, reported and
paid over his part of the fees to the
county treasurer and he had his re
ceipts to show for the amounts in
volved. Had Mr. Cox been dishonest
a great majority, perhaps all, of this
money would have been lost to the
county as it waB only through his fee
record and report to the county
treasurer that these cases could be
definitely traced."
