At the solicitation of friends I hereby announce mysolf a candidate for tho republican nomination for representa tive from Lincoln county, subject to the approval of the voters nt the pri mary election to be hold ApVil 19th, 1912. Harry P. Stevens, Maxwell, Neb. COUNTY ATTORNEY. I herewith announce my candidacy for the republican nomination for County Attorney. Wm. E. Shuman. Senator Hoagland. Senator W. V. Hoagland of Lincoln county at tho last session of tho legis lature had a considerable to do with irrigation lawB, was chairman of the committeo on irrigation, and succeeded in getting passed fifteen irrigation bills for his constituents. Tho work he did nnturally placed him in tho lime light as tho irrigation senator, and if ho is returned to tho sonato this fall ho will no doubt encounter plenty to contend with in tho matter of irriga tion laws. It is altogether likely that there will bo something of a conflict of , rights between Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado, as well as things looking toward tho bottormont of the water users along tho valley. Hoagland was ono of tho floor loaders in tho Ollia stockyards bill fight, tho bill placing tho regulation of stockyards charges in tho hands of the Btnto railway commission. The re apportionment bill was another of tho 'laws which he worked for, there n6w being six representatives whoro wo formerly had four, and for four sena tors whore wo had two before. Spna tor Hoagland somehow didn't acquire tho habit of sleoping on tho job whilo in tho legislature; and if ho is returned to the scnato it is likely that ho will bo in better position to do still more hust ling for his district. Suthorland Freo Lance. A Correction. A couplo of weeks ago Tho Tribune published a dispatch from Washington concerning tho proposed law changing tho rcsldonco time on homesteads, which Btated that Congressman Kin kaid at first opposed the bill and that ho offered an amendment increasing tho time of residence from eighteen months to twenty months. In a lettor to Tho Tribuno Congressman Kinknid says: "I beg to say theso statements nro incorrect. I novor opposed tho bill. Neither was I in any way responsible for tho making of tho amendment re ferred to? had nothing to do with that whatovor. Tho first I did concerning ; tho bill was to express my earnest and hearty support in behalf of its enact ment in u conference held by members , from tho publiq lands stntcB, and soon thereafter I secured tho Houbo com mittee to make an amendment to in cludo Nobrnska within its provisions, not gxprosslv but in legal offoct. How ever, it is true that at least ninoty-fivo per cent of thoso who havo written mo 4.helri views about tho bill havo ex , pressed themsolvos oamestly in behalf of its enactment, nnd that is my war rant for giving tho bill my earnest support." Mrs. "William Brown, formerly of this city, who has resided in Green River for two years past, returned here Saturday and will live with her daugh ter Mrs. Will Lanning.
