'I stnto (flfetcticfti eotuty lv:; . rvi SEfcrlljg fftrifomtv OTU- TWENTY-EIGHTH YEAR. NORTH PLATTE, NEB., SEPTEMBER 16, 1913. No. 68 f ' P w Jprift M44l''l''Mk Appoint Springer to Succeed Roberts Edward H. Springor, postmaster at Brady, was appointed county commis sioner yesterday afternoon to succeed Geo. W. Roberts, who resigned, but lator attempted to withdraw the resig nation. There were three applicants for the position, Mr. Springer, Mr. Roberta and George Schrecongoat. John Koliher, of Maxwell, had been a can didate for appointment, but when Mr. Roberts entered the race Mr. Keliher withdrew. But one ballot was taken, County Clerk Yost and Treasurer Durbin voting for Springer and County Judge Grant for Roberts. Mr. Springer was backed by a petition containing over two hundred names: Mr. Roborts had a putition with about two-thirds as many. The opposition filed charges of a serious nature against Mr. Springer, but tho man with whom the charges originated submitted an affidavit deny ing that he had made any such charge and furthor stated that he favored the appointment of Mr. Springer. Mr. Springer served as a commis sioner for several years and is credited by uninterested parties as having made as good commissioner as the county has ever had, and this writer, who watches county affairs pretty cloBely, is free to say that he never knew Mr. Springer to do an act that was not, in his judg ment, for the best good of the taxpayers.
