NOTHING MUCH
STIRRING IN A
POLITICAL WAY
BOX
BUTTE MEN SLOW TO SHY
HATS INTO THE RING.
rienfy of Candidates Su gees tod, But
Few of Them Ready to Take
the Fatal Plunge.
Somehow, Box Butte county citizens
are slow in getting into the political
game this year. The primaries are
only five months ahead, and not a
single candidate has become sufficient
ly active to file a nominating petition,
although in other counties of the state
the candidates for county offices are
as thick as bootleggers at a I. W. V
convention. Considerable activity in
Ftate politics is apparent, also, with
the new third party holding enthus
iastic gatherings with as many as half
a dozen men sitting in the same con
vention at the same time. Half a doz
en men have come out for governor
in both the leading parties, and each
day sees new filings for the other state
offices. Here in Box Butte, however,
while there is considerable discussion
nothing definite has happened. A few
men have announced that they will be
among the contenders, but they aren't
in any hurry to actually toss their
chapenux into the ring.
Judge W. H. Westover Hias an
nounced that he will be a candidate for
the state supreme court from the big
Sixth district, and while he is not
alone in aspiring to that honor, it is
conceded that he has a pretty good
chance to win.. The more candidates
appear, the better Judge Westover's
prospects. The principal opponent is
the incumbent, Judge James R. Dean
of Broken Bow. Judge Dean is an
able and affable jurist, but he is known
in onlv a comparatively small part of
the district, whereas Judge Westover's
acquaintance extends all over western
Nebraska, and he -will undoubtedly find
that his nearly thirty years of experi
nce on the district bench has won him
& big list of friends.
Talk of Alliance Man
Alliance is interested in Judge West
over's candidacy from another stand
point than friendship and respect It
Is understood that if the judge resigns
to enter the race for the supreme
judgeship, republicans of "Box Butte
county will get behind a certain prom
inent young Alliance attorney and use
their influence to have him appointee
to the district bench to fill the vacancy.
Judge Westover's term will not expire
for two years. The Alliance republican
contingent numbers some strong west
ern Nebraska leaders, and this pros
pective candidate for Judge West
over's shoes should make a strong
contender for the place, if his ability
sfnd backing have anything to do
vath it
For the other county offices, there
Is considerable good material in sight
in some cases enough material so
that the average voter will have some
difficulty in choosing between his
friends. Frank Irish, present county
treasurer, will be in the race for coun
ty clerk. Friends are grooming J.
Kridelbaugh, veteran Burlington em
ploye, for this job, and may succeed
in persuading him to ask the voters for
it Mr. Kridelbaugh has been a resi
dent of Box Butte for. some forty
years, and he knows practically every
one in the county, and in his various
capacities with the Burlington, has had
the opportunity to meet voters. He
should secure a strong railroad vote,
-which will be a good start if he de
cides to have a try for it
Two women have annouced that they
will have a trv for the county treas
urer's office Mrs. Nellie Wilson and
Mrs. Cora Lewis, the former the pres
ent deputy and the latter a former
It is probable that there will
be other entries, but to date none has
been suggested openly.
shriff Miller and Deputy Miskimer
Tiave both declared themselves out of
the running. This office, it is proo
i.i uriii lraw a number of candidates.
Chief of Police C. W. Jeffers and Lloyd
Thoma3 have both been suggested as
democratic nominees, but neither has
signified whether he cares to have a
try for the job.
Jack Hawes Friends Busy
Friends of Jack Hawes. veteran
traveling man out of Alliance, have
for the Dast week or two
to get him to enter the race for sher
iff hut so far without success. Mr.
itswoa ranks ace hisrh amonir the trav
iin! men of the city, and it's hard
to pry his thoughts loose from that
k Hi friends have hopes, how
ever, that he can be induced, to take
ih rhance. and they insist that it
won't much of a chance for Jack,
w hn hwn well-known and liked in
Alliance and the county for years, and
it is concealed by members 01 twin po
litical parties that he would be an.

Big Fight
The big fight Y
on me coun-
ty commissioners, hich are to
be elected this year. Su probable
that both C. L. Hashi ,nd George
Duncan will stand for. re-election if
they feel that there are any consider
able number of their friends who want
hem to. Mr. Hashman has said thnt
he didn't care to make the race if the
voters didn't want him, and it is prob
a )le that Mr. Duncan feels the same
way about it.
Unquestionably, there is a strong
sentiment among certain of the farm
ers for a complete change in the board
oi commissioners. At a meeting of
union men and farmers held at the
Baptist church on two occasions this
sentiment has been sounded clearly,
together with plenty of evidence that
these men mean just that However,
no man has yet been discovered who
is anxious to make the race. Friends
of several men have approached them.
and although it has been pointed out
!.o influential farmers and business
men thnt it is a patriotic duty to tak'
the job, so far no man has announced
his willingness to get into the game.
Ihe political game this year is
young yet, and the net few weeks
will undoubtedly see a good lineup of
sandidates. With the farmers, union
mn and business men agreed that they
will sunnort only the best timber avail
able, Box Butte county has no need
for worry.
LEGION POST
BOXING BOUT ,
ONMARCH 18
ALLIANCE EX-SOLDIERS TO
STAGE SERIES-OF MATCHES.
Harry Boyle of Syracuse, N. Y., and
Jack Gates of Omaha Will Put
on Ten-Round Go.
Arrangements have been completed
for the first of a series of boxing
matches, to be staged by Alliance post
of the American Legion. The bout
will be held at the Roof Garden on the
evening of Satruday, March 18. and
the ex-soldiers plan to revive interest
in boxing, which- ha3 been somewhat
overshadowed by the wrestling game
during the past few years. This wa
due, in great part, to legislation and a
sentiment against boxing matches, but
the war did away with most of it. The
state legion persuaded the legislature
to pass a boxing law providing lor a
boxing commission to lay down rules
and regulations designed to do away
with crooked promoters
The headhners for the first match in
Alliance will be Harry Boyle of Syra
cuse, N. Y., and Jack Gates of Omaha,
and the pair of them will go for ten
rounds. Frankie Woods of Omaha has
also been secured for the semi-windup.
n which he will tangle with Mel Wy-
'nd of Box Butte county. There wil;
also be a preliminary or two of Iocs
talent, including lightweight an'
paperweight talent
Dope on Scrappers Lacking
Jack Dailey of Alliance, who is reg
istered with the Htate boxing commis
sion as an official referee, made the
arrangements for the bout, in conjunc
1 ion with George C. Madsen, the post's
fight manager. The full dope on the
scrappers has not yet been forwarded,
but Dailey made a special trip to Urn
aha to look over the talent, and is
cr needed to know good scrappers
when he sees them. Besides, he
managed to talk it over with Douglas
countv leirion officials, who have be1-
in the boxing game for several months
past. Full details of the records of
the scrappers will be made public later.
Dailev was for some months an active
member in the Douglas post of the
Legion, and he is the man who put the
poVt on its feet and on the map, so far
as boxing is concerned. He's now an
Alliance resident, and his talents wil
be used here.
The Alliance post has had the box
ine club franchise for Alliance for sev'
eral months, and has been waiting un
til late winter to stage a series of
bouts. The boxing commission's reg
ulations are most strict, for osly cer
tain organizations are .permitted to
.permitted
hold boxing bouts, and not only the
club, but every official and principal in
a bout must have the O. K. of the state
officials. With such a lineup, there is
no stalling by the boxers, as that
would result in disbarment
l Alliance has a full corns of licensed
off icals, including the following, who
will serve for the bouts here: Manager,

ALLIANCE HIGH
AGAIN IN SIGHT
OF CHAMPIONSHIP
ONCE MORE IN LEAD FOR WEST
ERN NEBRASKA PENNANT.
Local Basket-tossers Defeated Sidne
and Scottsbluff Took Game from
Chappell Friday Evening.,
The local leather tossers are again
in first place in the western Nebraska
league as the result of their defeat of
Sidney 26 to 23, and ChappeH's defeat
by Scottsbluff Friday evening. Chap
pell was formerly in the lead in the
conference as they had played one
more game than Alliance and both had
lost one game, Alliance to Sidney and
Chappell to Alliance. Gering is third,
having lost three games, one each to
lliance. Scottsbluff and Chappell. As
the result of the shakeup the standing
is as follows, Alliance. Chappell, Ger
ing. Scottsbluff and Sidney.
Sidney started out at a fast pace but
was unable to keep going and while at
first among the leaders thev have now
dropped to fifth place. Gering has
done just the opposite for while they
got off with a poor start they have
gathered such speed that they now
have 'an excellent chance of finishinr
at least in second place. Chappell
reems to be sliding and Scottsbluff
Inking a spurt.
If Alliance succeeds in winning the
next two games, which will be no easy
task, as both the teams yet to be
played are fast, the boys will probably
be in class A at the state tournament.
he western Nebraska teams this year
should make a ' better showing as a
whole as there are a number of speedy
quintets in this end of the state.
Took Sidney's Meaure . !
Alliance defeated Sidney at Sidney
last Friday in a hard fought game
26-23. The locals were at one time in
the first half on the short end of a
13-9 score but soon staged a rally
hich again put them in the lead.
Lintz, Sidney's star forward, played
center, forward and guard in this
game, Leonard and Campbell twdi first
stringers when Sidney played at Alli
ance sitting on the bench. Sidney
seems to be full of basket ball players.
as they bad a mighty fast team be
fore and have a faster one now. Sid
ney used eight men in an Bttempt to
stop the locals, putting in Campbell,
Leonard and ' Tartan Clark. Lintz
easily led both teams in scoring with
1 points, with Null of Sidney and
Dailey, Fowler and Bicknell of Alli
ance all second with six points each.
Captain Fowler of the blue and white
was removed a minute after the start
of the second half because of an in

Attorney Prince
of Grand Island
Was Here Mondaj
Attorney W. A. Prince of Grand Is
land, who assisted Oonty Attorney
Iee Basye in prosecuting Mrs. Evelyn
Preiss McKIhaney for the murder of
Earl B. Anderson a little over a year
ago. was back in Alliance Monday and
luesday morning.
Mr. Prince s first cuestion to a Her
ald reporter was, "What's become of
'Gyp the Blood'?" This fanciful title
was the way he referred to Jom I.eav-
itt, one of the witnesses at the Mchl
haney trial, whom he advised the offi
cers to drive out of the city. 'Gyp'
remained only a short time after the
trial, when he left for parts unknown
"Mrs. McKIhaney didn t make much
of a flurry with her confession, Mr.
Prince observed, "although it was
sprung pretty well. There is no way
she could escape punishment, even n
her affidavit was admitted as evidence
I saw the confession before I left Al
liance after the trial. The whole ques
tion was whether her word was strong
enough to hold the man named as her
accomplice, and our decision was that
there was not sufficient evidence to
prosecute."
Mr. Prince was busy greeting
friends and admirers most of the time
when he was not actually trying hi
case. He returned to Grand Island

THIRD STREET
ROAD GRADEr
COMMITTEE TO URGE KEEPING
i OF COUNTY ROAD RECORD.
Annual Banquet and Election of Of
ficor Postponed to March 14
Good Words for the Band.
The members of the Alliance cham
ber of commerce, at . their Monday
luncheon, took up the matter of having
(he Third street road recognized and
graded as a county road, as it was
suggested that tourists entering the
town received a poor impression as
they were formed to cross a number of
nn I road tracks ami come through a
rather neglected part of town to enter.
This road would take all tourists past
Broncho lake and the Country club and
they would enter town on a much bet
ter looking street than by the present
route.
Al Hart, proprietor of Al's Auto
Service, spoke of the great advantage
-n having signs to direct tourists en
tering and leaving town and suggested
a system of signs that would lead all
tourists to the main part of town at
Third and Box Butte, where there
would also be signs directing them how
o leave town for different destina
:!ons. Mr. Hart then offered to paint
ml put up the signs of this sort all
hrough the town if the chamber would
pay for the material in the signs. Mr.
iart: as a return for this, would have
'Hout one-third of the .space on the
sign for his own advertising. H. i
Coursey then said that Coursey &
Miller wjuld be willing to pay the en
tire expense of these signs if allowed
to put them un. Both offers were re
ferred to the directors.
Want Record of County Roads
. In connection with the Third street
road,.H. E. Reddish told of the diffi
culty of finding the designation of a
road in the county books and suggested
that a resolution be adopted that the
county keep an up-to-date road book in
which all designated roads should be
listed. A committee of three, Mr.
Reddish, Floyd Lucas and W. R.
Harper, was appointed to draw up the
resolution. - -
The date of the annual banquet and
election of. officers was then changed
t Tuesday, March, 14, instead o
Monday, the 6th, as was planned here
tofore. This was done because of the
fact that many traveling men who
wished to attend the banquet can be
present on the 14th' but could not be
at the earlier date. It was al?o sug
gested that the program be arranged
o that the ticket sellers might know
t before they went out
Petition for County, A gent
H. P. Coursey reported on the mat
ter of a county agent, and said that a
number of farmers were circulating a
petition to be presented to the com
missioners. This petition will be com
leted and the required number of
names obtained, as soon as the roads
are in such shape that travel is at all
Dcssible.
President Glen Miller then brought
io the matter of the poor attendance
at the band concerts at the Imperial
theater every 'other Monday. Fhese
oncerU are for the purpose of raising
money to support a bank next summer,
which will be highly useiui at tne
stockmen 8 convention or at a race
meet, or a great many other civic
doings. Mr. Mann, the conductor of
the band, announced that at tne next
-.oncert the program would be some
what changed, for Instead of putting
-n the concert after the usual show.
the Dictures would be cut to short sub
jects only and the concert would begin
at eieht o'clock. It was then suggested
that the members might sen tickets
before each performance, but no
definite action was taken.

Judffc Westover '
Taken Suddenly
111 Last Evening
District court Is not in session today,
due to the sudden illness of Judge
Westover, who is under the care of a
physician at his hotel. It Is feared that
the illness is a return of an old attack
ago. The judge spent Monday night
in considerable pain, but was reported
to be resting somewhat more easily
mis morning.
Court is now on Its third week of
the session. The important cases of
the week were the divorce suit of Mrs.
Florence Atz vs. Julius Atz. The
counle lived for a number of years on
a 160-ncre farm a mile north of Alli
ance. About two years ago Mrs. Atz
brought an action for divorce, asking
several thousand dollars in alimony,
which, if paid, would have taken the
value of the farm to nay. The suit
was contested and at that time Judge
Westover refused to grant a divorce
and the alimony asked. Judge West
over pointed out that they had been
wedded for twenty-five years, had
children and grandchildren, and sought
to reconcile, them. Mrs. Atz, since the
former suit, has lived in Alliance. At
the henring Monday Judire Westover
granted the divorce and awarded Mrs.
Atz as alimony the west half of the
farm. The husband's half of the place
contains most of the improvements,
and he is required to pay costs of the
action.
The judge dismissed the apnlicatio-
of Albert A. Duncan for a modification
of the court order awarding Agnes El
mure I'uniun, now jrnes

the custody of their two children.
Costs were taxed to the plaintiff.
The infant child of Mr. and Mrs.
Lloyd 1 Myers died last week at

city. Mrs. J. V. Myers left rriday for

LAST OF SERIES
OF SERMONS ON
EVILS OF DANCE
REV. M. C. SMITH DISCUSSES THE
"DANCING CHRISTIAN"
Says Call of Christ Has Always Been
to the Heroic Rather Than to
Places of Entertainment.
Rev. M. C. Smith of the Methodist
church gave the last of Me series of
sermons against the dance Sunday
. . . I
evening. He spoke on "Dancing
Christians" and said, in part:
Before I begin to talk I want to say
a word in regard to the criticism of
these sermons which has appeared in
certain Alliance newspapers, no de
fense is necessary, except to tell you
that it reminds me of an argument I
heard one time. One man was arguing
a certain side of a question, giving hi
reasons and evidence to sustain them
when the other man. being unable tc
disprove any of the statements, flew
into a violent rage and said. "You re r
blankety blankety blank blank blank
blank." then turned and walked away
with a feeling of keen satisfaction to
think he had bested his opponent in
the "arcument
The sermon tonight deals with
"Dancing Christians." In this I have
"o reference to immoral people who
dance with evil motives; neither do I
refer to church members who are
morally corrupt and still profess to be
crood people. The Bible calls these
hypocrites." I also no not reier to
people whose Christianity is limited to
having their names on some chumh
book. 1 refer to Christian people wno
have not seen the harm in the dance,
who have no evil motive, and who are
conscientious in trying to live up to
the teachings of Jesus.
A half century ago, a series or ser-
mons airainst dancing in a Methodist
rhiirrh would not have been necessary.
A call to repentance would have
oiifTired. for no person would have
thought of professing religion without
renouncing tne tiance.
Churches Disapprove of Dancing
Christians should not dance because
the church of God forbids it The at
titude of the Methodist church on this
subject is well known. 1 was told the
other day that the Methodist church
"..
waa narrow, that other churches per-
mitted dancinc and we should also.

CITY MANAGER .
IS MAINTAINING
CITY'S CREDIT
INTEREST ON OBLIGATIONS ARB
PROMITLY MET WHEN DUE.
Letter From Bond House Shows Th
Alliance Stands Well Among
. the Municipalities
City Manager Kemmish has beQ
kept busy the past few months getting
the city's finances in shape to meet
the bonded obligations and the interest,
thereon, with all the success in th
world attending his efforts. In his
"City Manager's Corner" for this issue
Mr. Kemmish tells of some of the
things that have been accomplished,
and the standing which municipal
bonds of Alliance have as compered
with those of some other cities. Mr.
Kemmish says:
Last week we paid another $5,000 ea
Jhe 1910 water bond issue of $55,000
This bond issue was used in the origin
al purchase of the lighting plant
This mnkes $10,000 paid on this bond
issue so far this year, which, by th
way is the first that has been paid otk.
this bond Issue so far. This, with the
1.000 paid on the 1906 water bonds
makes a total of $11,000 we have paid
on these old water bonds. If we add
to this amount the $10,000 water ex-
tension bonds voted about a year ago
which we did not sell, but used to build
the water main extension and paid
cash for it, this would make a total
deduction of our water bonds of $21,
000 upon which we would save an an
nual interest charge of $1,090.
Now Paying the Fiddler
We have also paid $2,000 on the or
iginal sewer bonds. We hope soon to
be able to take up a few more of our
general obligation bonds. It is not as
spectacular' to pay these old bonds as
it is to pay out this amount of money
for new construction; there is an old
saying, however, that "Someone must
pay the fiddler." While it is not as
pleasant to do so we feel that it is the
business-like thing to do just now.
We must first pay our debts, there
by reducing our annual interest
charges, before we can expect to re
dpee our taxes. It is our policy to
that our obligations are promptly rae
when due. lhis will keep our city a
credit first class. '
Some timei ago we 'received several .
