Baker & Nickels, the genial Mur

a genuine good business for the past
few weeks in almost every depart

stove business would naturally be
good at this season of the year, but
in addition to this thev have been en
joying a good business in the other
lines. This is simply due to the fact
that the boys always treat their pat
ions right at all times Their prices
are right and the goods arc right. If
all business men possessed these ex

business at most any old time of the

All sorts of political complications
will be encountered by the Nebra ka
voter when he goes to cast his vote
on November 3. He will find, in the
first place, that he .s expected to
mark four different ballots. He will
also note a change in the usual ar
rangement of parties on the regular
ballot.
Democratic - populist- candidates
come first on the ticket this year,
by virtue of the fact that Wood row
Wilson received the highest vote for
president in P'lJ. The progressive
nominees will get second place, based
on the Roosevelt vote of two years
ago, and the republicans will have to
content themselves with their posi
tion. Fourth place goes to the so
cialists, and fifth to the prohibition
ists. On the regulation ballot this year
the voter will find the usual party
circles, together with three constitu
tional amendments submitted by the
legislature, taxation reform, five
sixths jury verdicts and increased
salaries for state officers, and all the
candidates for state, congressional,
legislative, county anil local offices
from governor down.
Another ballot will contain the pro
posed constitutional amendment for
equal sulfrage and the referendum
propositions on the Nebraska Ciiyt
armory appropriation and the work
men's compensation.
A third will carry the single prop
osition of university campus extension
or removal.
The fourth will have the names of
judicial candidates without any par
tisan label.
AUTOMOBILE RUNS INTO A

Will Egenberger, Henry Eikenbary
and an insurance adjuster, were mo
toring from this city out to the farm
of Mr. Couehenour to adjust the loss
of a hay stack that hail been burned
a few days ago, they met with an ac
cident that resulted quite seriously
for Mr. Gouchenour. When only a
shoit distance from the city, near the
Btins farm, on the road running east,
the steering apparatus of the automo
bile became out of fix, and in spite
of all the driver, M' Gouchenour,
could do, ran into a bank at the road
side with great force, throwing John
out onto the road and resulted in a
sprained ankle as well as severe
bruises on the shoulders and face and
a large section of skin being torn
from his face near the light eye. The
other members of the party were bad
ly shaken up, but escaped without
serious injury. The injured man was
brought back to this city by J. E

and the injuries were dressed and the

Jack, who was gathered up by Chief
Rainey and taken ove- to the jail to

at the hands of Judge Archer. Jack
claims to have had a very exciting
career during his existence on earth,
having been a member of the regular

LAND OWNERS,
DO YO'l KNOW
WHAT iTMEANS?
Proposed Constitutional Amend
ment Relating to Taxation.
SAID TO BE A "JOKER" IN IT.
Intended to Open the Way For Increas
ing Taxes on the Lands of the State
and to Wipe Out Exemptions of
Church Property.
What does it mean what is the ob
ject of the proposed constitutional
amendment Number One? It relates
to taxation. Every bit of taxable
property in Nebraska is directly af
fected by it, and its adoption by the
pe.ople would work a great change in
the methods of taxation. It is pro
losed bv the ssinele tax contingent in
Nebraska. It opens the door for fur
ther exemptions of property from tax
levies. It is the opening wedge for
the introduction of the tingle tax the
ories as a untied to the taxation of
property in this state.
As everybody knows, the single tax
idea is to exempt all personal prop
erty from assessment. This includes
all buildings, merchandise stocks, ani
everything contained in buildings in
short, everything above ground. The
single taxers would place the whole
but den of taxation upon the lands
This would work an untold hardship
upon the farmers and other land own
eis of Nebraska. In the opinion of
the Lraeue of Omaha Taxpayers, the
proposed amendment is a dangerous
expedient.
i-'ection 1 of article IX of the consti
tution of Nebraska reads as follows:
The legislature shall provide
such revenue as may be needful,
by levying a tax by valuation, so
that every person and corporation
shall pay a tax in proportion to
the value of his, her or its prop
erty and franchises, the value to
be ascertained in such manner as
the legislature shall direct, and it
shall have power to tax peddlers,
etc., in such manner as
it shall direct by general law, uni
form as to the class upon which
it operates.
The nenilinsr amendment which Is
submitted to the voters at the election
November 3 reads as follows:
WORK OF CURBING AND
GUTTERING IS NOW BEING
PUSHED RIGHT ALONG
The active work on the new curbing
and guttering on South Sixth street
was commenced this morning when
the work of erecting the forms for
the concrete was started, and the
work will be pushed right along. The
work is to be carried out by the B. &
M. Concrete company, who had charge
of the work on the North Sixth street
and Third street districts, which have
proven so successful. The adoption
of this method of taking care of the
streets has certainly proven a suc
cess in the localities where it has
been tried and taken away a great
deal of the expense of the street work
which was before to be done over and
over again, but without any real good
ever being secured; but under the
curbing and guttering system, this
is overcome to a large extent and the
improvement made along these lines
is certainly one that will be appre
ciated in the long run by the tax-payers
of the city, although the first out
lay may seem quite large, but it shows
in the end that it is the cheapest af
ter all.

Murray, - - - Nebraska
This morning a young man, giving
the name of James Franklin Milligan,
and his residence as Tarkio, Mo., made
his appearance at the ofi'ice of County
Judge Beeson with a request that he
be given a marriage license. As the
bride to be was not in company with
the groom, and had failed to arrive
in the city, the judge decided to
await the coming of the future Mrs.
Milligan before issuing the license.
The lady, Miss Edna Cunningham,
who gave her home as Oklahoma City,
arrived on No. 4, and being met by
the groom at the train, at once pro
ceeded to the court house and secured
the necessary license, going from
there to the office of Justice M. Arch-
, .i -
er, wnere tne ceremony was per
formed. The contracting parties stat
ed that they desired to surprise their
friends at home over the event, and
for this reason came to Nebraska to
have the knot tied.
