Last Thursday night tho garage on
tli3 premises of Charles Vefnoa was
broken open and the Hupmobile driv

to the Grant McNeol ranch eleven
miles northwest, and leaving it in the
main road walked a half ml'.o north
to the McNeel building where tho lock

Tho muffler on tho car was open

tho noise awaktened Mr. McNeel, but
by tho time he got out of the houBe
tho car had reached tho main road

telephoned to Sheriff Salisbury who
hopped into his car and started out
to intercept tho thief. When ho reach

a car coming and laid in waiU Tho
stolon car was being driven rapidly
and as it" approached tho sheriff call

no attention, and swerving to ono side
ran into a post, Salisbury at tho samo
time shooting at tho tires. Hitting the
'post resulted in a slowing down of
tho stolon car, and seeing that arrdst
was possible tho men jumped from the
car and ran Into tho brush and made
their escape. Othor than a bent front
guard nnd tho breaking of a small rod
connecting tho frame, tho McNeel car
was not damngod, whllo tho Vernon
car Heft at tho McNeel ranch was not
damaged, though covered with mud.

Western Nebraska Stockmen Active.
Tho Association of Wostorn Ne
braska Stockmen which was organiz
ed last May is already making Its
influence felt In that portion of fche
stato.
Thnt it has struck a responsive
chord In the minds of stockmen is
evidenced by its growth from a mere
handful to a membership of over 250
in the two monlths of its existence.
This membership represents practic
ally every county in the stato west of
thci 100th raerfdian, and the associa
tion expects to have a ntetmbership of
one thousand by fall.
The secretary is now actively en
gaged In digging out tho llvo stock
men, listing and classifying thtem ac
cording to their interests, and pub
lishing this information in a two
hundred 'page directory, which will bo
sent free to members and otlielrs, sup
plying him with the" necessary infor
mation pertaining to their herds.
Besides tho directory, tho associa
tion has succeeded in getting tho
Duvoc members together in sufficient
numbers to hold a cooperntlvo boar
salo during the Lincoln county fair at
North Platte this fall.
The object of this association ls not
howevor,to sponsor any breed, but to
lend Its Influence to tho dovfeflopmont
of all. This is but a beginning. It will
bo particularly serviceable in dis
covering and bringing togetheir brced
eib of similar stock, and to work for
stockmen's interests in general. Such
an institution is like a tolephone,
valuable In proportion to the number
of people it reaches. It is therefore the
orncst- desire of this association to
reach every stockman in Western Ne
braska, worthy of the name.
Parties interested should address,

Telephone Rates Lower
in the United States
Than in Europe
Bates for telephone service should be based upon the
cost of materials and labor and the kind of service fur
nished. Wages paid telephone employees in this country aro
practically double thoso paid in Europe for tho same kind
of work.
Telephone materials also cost a great deal more in
America than abroad and tho grade of telephone service
furnished here is far superior' as everyone who has trav
eled in Europe knows.
Thus, the same ' materials could be purchased, tho
same amount, of labor employed and service, such as is
provided, could bo furnished for less money in Europe
than in America.
When the cost of operating is twice as much in Amer
ica as in Europe, telephone rates in Europe, to be pro
portionately equal, should be only a dollar for service
costing $2,00 in America, and a long distance call costing
$1.00 hero should only cost 50 cents in Europe.
