A. F. Heeler and E. J. Eames were
appointed receiver and register re
spectively of the North Platte land
office last Friday. They will assume
the positions as soon as their bonds are
approved and commissions arrive.
Those appointments were decided
upon months ago, but had been held
up because Bryan and Hltchhock could
not agree on one of the appointees
of the Broken Bow office.
Thei commissions of Register Evans
and Receiver Bare expired a year ago,
and'slnco that time had dally expected
their successors to bo named.
Messrs. Beeler and Eames are well
konwn In the county. The former has
been engaged In the mercantile busi
ness at Hershey for many years; while
the latter is editor of the Maxwell
Telepost, whlc'h he established sev
eral years ago.
DISCUSSING THE BE3I A XI).
Some trainmacn complain that- one
feature of tho concerted demand of
train and cngincmen for higher wages
is working to their disadvantage, In
that iwngo comparisons are mostly
made on what enginemen get, while
onglnoincn get imorc money than train
men. This, they say. gives the public
the impreslon that all the men who
are asking for an eight-hour day are
as well paid for what they da as the
enginemen. Enginemen complain that
the roads have picked out the best
runs for showing what enginemen get,
ignoring many cases where enginemen
work for a very little money. Any
way, they say, they are not asking for
more pay, but for shorter working
hours. Railroads have countered on
this by saying they will ho glad to
give an eight-hour day if that is made
to mean that every man will work
eight hours.

AX OUTSIDE VIEW '
Tho handiwork of the railroad com
pany can be seen at the recent munici
pal elections along the line of the Un
ion Pacific. The company Is opposed
to saloons, for the reason that they
tend to Impair the efficiency of em
ployes, ad as a result the influence
of the company was used last Tuesday
as ome may reasonably presume
to put the saloons out of business. At
Sidney and North Platte, both divi
sion towns, the dry people were vic
torious, and the two towns for tho first
time in tholr history of half a century,
are no'w on the water wagon Lexing
ton Pioneer.

(1ENERAI, MANAGER WARE OF l
V. IS FAVORITE WITH "BOYS."
Charley Lane, gonernl freight agent
of the Union Pacific, tells this one on
General Manngor Ware.
Two Irish section hands were visit
ing at the end of the day's work. Both
were loud In their praise of General
Manngcr Ware
"He's some mnnnger, that lnd," ex
claimed Pnt. "He went ever my sec
Hon In his private car the other day,
and when he went by he waved at me
and yelled 'Hello, Pnt!' That's some
kind of a mnnnger, believe me. Knows
all tho boys and spenks to 'cm I
"Huh!" snorted Mike. " I s'posc you
know Mlsther Ware mighty well, don't
you! Well, he pnssed over my section
yesterday on his observation cnr. and
when he sailed by he yelled 'Hello,
Mike,' ad throw me a good cigar
and it was lighted, too!" World-Hor
aid.
Apropos to the above, one of the Un
Ion Pacific locomotive engineers re
marked In a serious mood: "Hnvlng
served under Mr. Ware from Train
Dispatcher to General Manager, cov
erlng more than twenty-five years, I
can truthfully assert without any
equivocation thnt It Is not to be won
dered at that a person with Charles
Ware's disposition and common sense
should be tho most beloved general
manager the Union Pacific has yet had,
such a man could not help from being
a success from the start as he has un
doubtedly shown a genius for manage
ment
While a lover of peace, he Is tho
greatest fighter the road has produced,
as brave as a Hon, ho Is always kind
and considerate to those who serve un
der him. He counts his men ns his
partners and friends, weighs their in
terests with his own, anticipates tholr
rights and guards them, besides culti
vating their good will and their loyal
ty by his loyalty to them, which coos
to prove that a man can be eminently
successful in every sense of the word,
and still be absolutely free from per
sonal arrogance or a tendency to
thrust his authority In the face of oven
his humblest employe, but to hold it
in reserve to be used when a crisis
approaches. This is the one nnd only
way td maintain order In any organi
zation. It would be utterly impossible
for such an Individual to be uncivil
to any person and especially to one
he knciw had grown gray in the ser
vice. Not only has he the Instincts of
a true gentleman, but the courace of
a hern leader, and God knows It will
bo a sorry day for the owners as well
as the employes of the Union Pacific
when he steps down from the exalted
position he has filled so honorably and
creditably to himself as well ns all
concerned.

A sterling democrat, Nebraska born and bred, a brainv vounc
man of courage, education and ability; a citizen of exemplary char
acter, and a successful business man of proved experience
He is his own boss, running on his own platform, and a more
clean-cut statement was never given to the public by a candidate
Here are salient points: J nuiuaw..
"I am for President Wilson without apology or explanation; my
support of him is actual, not nominal." 1 y

and GnaCtment f impractica1' Omental
. .V1 h.ave. no hobbies, but I would have good roads; would aid ir
rigation legislation, and would establish a publicity bureau to herald
to the world Nebraska's wonderful resources "
Every voter should read Mr., Neville's platform.
Would Loan $10,000,000 on
Nebraska Farms
I believe that the permanent school fund of
$10,000,000,00 should be loaned on Nebraska farms on
long term and low rate of Interest. If elected
Commissioner of Public Lands and Buildings
I will work for a law that will make this possible.
