Governor Declares.
Lincoln. Aug. 20. Placing the
state in active competition with ev-
slight variations due to different
freight rate all dealers should sell
first class soft coal this winter at a
price not to exceed ?8.25 per ton. He
asserted that he was on the verge of
settling a contract with a certain
Illinois mine owner who would fur
nish him coal at a price which would
make it possible for the governor to
6ell It to every municipality in Ne
braska, delivered to consumer, at
8.25 per ton.
Continuing, the governor pointed
out to what he considered the un
justifiable price announced by the
Lincoln municipal yard of $9.50 a
ton. The same price was charged
last winter by the municipal coal
yard.
"Despite the fact that coal is $1.25
a ton cheaper to the dealer than It
was last year the municipal yard at
Lincoln proposes to sell it at $9.50
a ton," the governor said.
"I can deliver coal to Lincoln f. o.
b. at $6.25 a ton and deliver it to
cnosumers with $2
overhead.

Krom Tuesday's Dally.
The sneak thief appears to be
abroad in the land, as it were, ac
cording to reports received at the
county attorney's office in this city
from the vicinity of Union. A few
nights ago the garage at the farm
home of WInfield Xvan, two miles
north of Union on the K. T. highway
was entered and th party making
the visit proceeded t get away with
a couple of tires from the Buick car
of Paul Swan and a number of ac
cessories which were in the gnrage.
The loss was discovered when Mr.
Swan visited the garage to use his
car and the loss later reported to the
authorities. .! (
The Swan home is located just a
short distance from the highway and
it is possible that some passing sneak
thief decided it would be a good
chance to get a good tire cheap and
was successful in the work of touch
