It has been the custom in Elmwood
to park the autoes in the center of
Main street but this has been chang
ed and all cars are parked on the
sides. It is thought that this is -the
best plan as it will give more room
for parking and better opportunity
to get around. There were 150 cars
parked on Main Street Saturday ev

so this will indicate that a good

PRISON OVERFLOW
616 COSf TO STATE
Nebraska Will Have to Pay From
. $125,000 to $150,000 Would .
' Parol a More Men.:
. Lincoln. Neb . June 10. -rThe state
at .Nebraska' will have to pay $125,
000 to $160,008 during the next year
and a Ijalf to pay the board (bills ot
prisoners In countyjails, who cannot
be . received at : the .penitentiary be
cause of the overcrowded condition
at Lancaster. .
" This estimate of additional expense
to the state by riason of the large
increase in population at. the peni
tentiary was arrived at Friday morn
ing at a conference between the
board of control. Warden Fenton a'nd
Assistant Attorney General Mason
Wheeler.
No money has been appropriated
to meet these claims, and they will
have to be taken care of by the next
legislature as a deficiency.
Warden Fenton suggested that the
only way of saving the state ' this
money is for the state board of pa
roles and pardons to parole more
convicts serving (or lesser crimes and
thus make room for the new ones as
they come. Fenton told the con
ferees that there are more than 100
men already boarding at state ex
pense in county Jails.
The penitentiary population at
present is 641. Counting those who
are held in jails following convic
tion, the number is not less than 750
now, and by fall it may be 1,000,
the warden calculates.
The new reformatory for first of
fenders will take care of at least 200
of the. prison's surplus population.
and perhaps 400. It will be some
time before the reformatory can be
opened and in, -the- meantime the
state .will be liable to sheriffs for
the feeding of prisoners at 75 cents
per day each in all counties except
Douglas, where the rate is 50 cents
per day.
Chairman Oberlies said the board
was squarely behind Warden Fenton
in his refusal to admit more pris
oners. In making its budget estimate for
the new biennium the board of con
trol counted on a penitentiary pop
ulation of 500 and thus fell far short
of maintenance requirements for the
641 now enrolled.
The institute for feeble minded at
Beatrice' Is another institution that
has been filling up rapidly. It looks
now as - though the number of In
mates would run as high as 1,000 by
the time the next legislature meets.
Accidents will happen, but the best
regulated families keep Dr, Thomas'
Edectril Oil for such emergencies.

CONFIRM ALLEN FOR
REVENUE COLLECTOR
- Take your poultry, eggs and cream
to the Mbye Produce Co., Platts
mouth, for the highest market price.
Rohrer, as Prohibition Director, and
Kinsler, Attorney, to Be Act
ed Upon Soon.
Washington. D. C. June 10. Nom
ination of Arthur B. Allen of Tecum
seh to be internal revenue collector
for Nebraska was confirmed today
by the senate.
His recommendation was sent in
by Senator Norris coincident with
those of U. S. Rohrer of Hastings to
be prohibition director, and J. C
Kinsler of Omaha to be district at
torney for Nebraswa. Rohrer's nonv
ination, like that of Kinsler, is be
ing held Up.
Governor McKelvie this mornins
in 'person lodged with Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty this long expected
protest against the appointment of
Kinsler. He alleges that the Oma
ha man is anti-prohibition in his
sympathies.
Memibers of the Nebraska delega
tion, not all of whom were for Kins
ler originally, are standing by their
unanimous choice agreement, how
ever, and the governor's action is
looked upon as the -mere breaking
of a lance for political purposes. It
is believed certain that Kinslor's
nomination will go to the senate
within a day or two. and perhaps
even before the end of the week.
Representative Reavfc: returned to
day from Nebraska, but is silent on
the possibility of his getting into
the race for the senate. R. B. How
ell, national committeeeman, who is
already in the race for the republican
nomination, called on the First dis
trict representative today but the
senatorship was not broached, it was
said.

FATHER SHINE BETTER
From Saturday's Daily.
This morning reports from the St.
Catherine hospital in Omaha state
that Father M. A. Shine is now ral
lying nicely and as it is the third
day following his operation the at
tending physicians and surgeons are
hopeful that he may be soon on the
highway to recovery as he is appar
ently gaining in strength and vital
ity and showing the most favorable
signs.
This will be very pleasing news
to the many friends of this distin
guished clergyman in this city and all
over the state.
Mrs. l")uke Frans, formerly a well
known resident ot near Union, but
who is now living at Auburn, was
the victim on last Wednesday of an
attack by a drove ( f sows which the
family were raising and as the result
of the encounter sustained severe
wounds and lacerations on the body
that has caused her to be confined to
her home since that time.
It seems that Mrs. Frans had gone
to the hog lot to feed the animals
and while she was in the lot the
drove of sows suddenly showed the
most warlike disposition and started
toward Mrs. Frans and with their
pushing and shoving she was knock
ed down and that she escaped death
at the hands of the hogs seems little
short of a miracle. Her body was
badly cut and bruised from the effects
ot the lacerations and blows given
her by the hogs. While the animals
were in their attack on the lady
they were diverted for a moment
and during this time Mrs. Frans was
able to make her escape and had al
most reached the fence and reached
safety when another hog sprang at
her and bore her to the ground, snap
ping at the face of Mrs. Frans and
fortunately the hog failed to reach
the face of the woman and instead
grabbed the glasses that Mrs. Frans
was 'wearing and to this fact is
probably due the fact that Mrs. Frans
is alive today as the animals were
in an infuriated humor and ready to
destroy her in their madness.

Stories Being Circulated are
but Mere Guesses.
'SOME" GLADNESS!
"I am so glad," said a Nebraska
City mother in the hearing of a re
porter a few days ago, "that my
daughter has a heau who owns an
automobile. It means that she can
get out in the air." If daughter's

forgetting her expressions of satis
faction, puts the blame on the com
munity, the police, the newspapers
or the president of the United States,
instead of placing the responsibility
squarely where it belongs. Mothers

less with respect to their daugh
ter's male companions than they are
in choosing a can of baked beans at
the grocer's ought to apply for mem
bership in the well known Bedslat
Club. Nebraska City Press.
Officials of the nonpartisan league
say that the stories that have been in
circulation that t he organization in
tends entering the republican pri
mary in 1922 and s.'-ek to nominate
Wray for governor and Howell for
senator are mere guesses at what
may be done.
They say that naturally they keep
an eye on the political situation at
all times, and being a nonuartisau
organization they will at all times
feel free to enter whatever primary
appears to offer the best opportunity
for gaining what they desire to ac
complish. The league now has :'.2.000 or
more members in the state, ami if it
could bunch these votes behind Wray
and Howell in a field of four or five
candidates, it would be sufficient to
put each of them across.
F. L. IJollen, editor of the Leader,
in the last issue, says he was at the
Beatrice meeting where Mr. l'.owen
was said to have made the statement
as to wrav and liowen. lie anus.
"If Mr. Bowen made such a state
ment it was not made publicly. Mr.
Townley did not affirm ,the state
ment in the debate hut did say that
the league in Nebraska will be what
the farmers themselves make it.
"If Mr. Bowen made the statement
attributed to him, he was speaking
without authority. No one person
has the authority to speak for the
non-partisan league in Nebraska on
this question. The only person au
thorized to speak on this question is
the duly called state delegate con
vention of the Nonpartisan league.
This convention will determine
whether Arthur G. Wray will be its
candidate and it will also determine
whether the league will throw its
support to R. B. Howell for United
States senator. Judge Wray may be
,the candidate for governor, and 11.
B. Howell may be the candidate for
United States senator, but until the
convention has spoken statements of
the above character should be con
sidered personal views only."

among those going to Omaha this af
