Prohibition Flop.
Mr. HnweH'i opponent's pre-election
flop to the opposite aide of the
prohibition question five weeks In ad
vance of nn cliK-tlon In a dry state,
no far ns Inquiries have gone, hasn't
pullud the wool over the eyes of a
slnnle hater of the liquor traffic and
apparently has fooled no one except
tho senator himself.
MtruKKUng first ugalnst a campaign
of mlMHtatements and buncombe, Mr.
JMndall has turned the very factors
figured on to defeat him to his ad
vantage. As tho state campaign
stands at present, the democrats
must, either openly or by refusal to
deny, admit that Mr. Randall's oppo
nent and the statu central committee
havn lumped state, local, school nnd
county taxes and charged that tho
state was responsible for all, except
ing only IS per cent of the total.
Mr. Handnll's opponent must show
to a suspicious public, diHKUsted with
pre-election promises, where he will
make the 10 per cent cut In state
tuxes pledged by the "rain maker"
In public speeches.
Mr. Randall's opponent must out
line the system of slate government

Governor Denies
Campaign Story
McKelvie Returns From Trip
to Cherry County No Ques
tions Asked at Speech.
Lincoln, Oct. 7. (Special). Gov
ernor McKelvie returned Suturday
from Cherry county. He spent several
days at the Rachelor ranch and fuund
time to hunt ducks. He reports the
people generally not Interested In the
P tltal campaign, but said he had
km audience of 2,000 people at O'Neill
ami good crowds at Alnsworth and
Valentine.
The code bill is Just as I pre
dicted," said the governor. "It Is
no longer a political Issue. The voters
realize that its repeal will not bring
tax reduction as promised by the
democratic organization. The wiping
out of nil code salaries meuns a re
duction of only 33 one-thousondths of
per d-nt and the epeal o f all sttate
house salaries a reduction of only 1-7
of 1 per cent In taxes."
The governor said the published In
quiry made by an Irishman In his
O'Neill audience never occurred, no
questions being asked by any one at
thnt meeting. The story of the al
leged Incident Is attributed to City
Commissioner Hopkins of Omaha.
"C. W. llryan has never answered
my questions in regard to whether he
approves of the purposes for which
the Increased taxes on his farm were
levied," said the governor, "nnd I do
not expect him to answer."

he did not kidnap two girls, Jean Jen
kins and Katherlne McManaman on
May 27.
"I Intend to prove that Brown de
liberately kidnaped the two girls and
also dug a grave for H. K. Boyd who
attempted to rescue them," said
County Attorney A. V. Shotwell, who
will prosecute.
Brown's defense will be, he stated,
that the girls voluntarily took the
nuto ride with him that ultimately
resulted In hla taking them to his
shack in Benson.
Brown was captured nnd wounded
by n posse near Rawlins, Vyo.,
July 15.
Jim Marino, charged with first de
gree murder for the slaying of Sam
Nanflto September 20, will be tried be
fore a Jury to.be Impaneled In Dis
trict Judge Day's court tomorrow
morning.
Police say the sluying was the re
sult of a two years' feud.
Evidence nt the coroner's inquest
showed thnt Marino was standing nt
a window of his home over a pool
hall nt 1102 South Thirteenth street
when he fired seven shots from a shot
gun at Nanflto who was passing the
place.
Marino alleges that Nanflto was a
"blnckhnnder" nnd that he had
threatened his life.

Amsberry Files
hy Petition for
State Office
Question of Legality of New
Candidate for Secretary of
Slate Entering the
Race Arises.
Lincoln, Oct. 7. (Special Telegrarrj.)
Secretary of State D. M. Amsberry
has accepted a petition of nomination
for secretary of state nnd his name
will go upon the ballot along with
those ef Crawford Kennedy, republi
can nominee, nnd Charles iV. Poole,
democratic nominee. Mr. Amsberry
will not be permitted to use a politi
cal party name in connection with
his candidacy. He must be satisfied
with the words "by petition," follow
ing his name. This will give him no
votes cast In party circles.
Mr. Amsberry accepted nomination
thrust upon him by a little more than
1,300 voters In cities and towns. Tho
petition was presented by Rev. John
A. Murray of University Place, chair
man of the prohibition state commit
tee. The prohibition committee nomi
nation to fill a vacancy upon the pro
hibition ballot was signed but not
presented to Mr. Amsberry. One thous
and petitioners are required to nomi
nate for state office by petition.
The eligibility of Mr. Amsberry, be
cause of his defeat at the primary
election for the republican nomina
tion for congress in the Sixth district,
has been questioned. The law of 1915
states that a person defeated at the
primary cannot run by petition or
certificate of nomination for the same
office for which he was defeated. A
later statute, that of 1915, states that
"No candidate defeated at the pri
mary election shall be permlttel to
file by petition In the general election
next following."

Ships Feci
Effects of
Dry Ruling
Cutom Officials Sent All
Liquor Stocks of Incouiini;
Vessels Under Attorney
(rriieral's Decision.
Outgoing Steamers 4Vei
New York, Oct, 7 Hy A. P
There was the usual "mooning of tht
lair" upon Imeia putting out to si a
today, despite Attorney (ieneiul
Daugberty's ruling on high seaa
liquor and the announcement of
Chairman ISaker at Washington that
all shipping board craft had been or
dern to travel dry.
Incoming vexsels were first to fci 1
the effects of the attorney general's
ruling, on arriving in pott, each vis
sel, Irrespective of tho flag It fit v,
was boarded by customs officials, who
locked and sealed oil bars, liquor
stores ami even the private siippl.es
of ship's officers iitnl seamen.
Confrontrd by the por-sibllily of a
parched voyage across the Allant.c,
a score of passengers scheduled for
the shipping board craft Anuria,
threatened to leave the sh.p at the
last minute. Only when officers of
the I'nlted flutes lines, who manage
tho vessel, assured the thirsty ones
that "In tho absence of definite In
structions from Washington the burs
would be open as usual" was the ship
able to depart with Its full hulling
list.
Micptlcs lloliblfiil.
There were provisions, however,
which skeptics eyed with misgivings.
Orders might come, said the officials,
In time to be transmitted to the
America by wireless. In which case
the bars might be sealed in middle
ocean.
The Majestelc mastodan of the
seas, likewise sailed without Inter
ference from customs authorities. Its
Jio.000 supply of liquor ready for the
txnected onslaught beyond the three
mile limit, while Star line chiefs de
clined to discuss Mr. Daugherty's rul
ing, except to say "It apparently
won't hit the Majestic this time."
The nbsence of customs officials
also Icntf spirits to the departure of
the C.lullo Cesare, which sailed for
f'enna and Naples with well-stocked
lockers. It rot only carried a supply
for passengers but several hundred
gallons of wine for Its Italian cro-.v,
hired in Naples under the usual con
tract Hiyuitttlng wine with each meal.
Barkeeper Ousted.
Even the barkeeper was ousted from
his quarters, so thorough was the job
of the customs officials in sealing up
Its liquor supply when the Stockholm
docked. The private stocks of the cap
tain and the crew who came Into port
unwarned of the Daugherty rule, were
sealed tight.
But while they looked on in grieved
silence, there was one exultant pussen
gcr, Mrs. Lydia Johnson of PiCrre, S,
D., who cheered the officials In their
task. She is a prohibition worker.
Just returned from an unsuccessful
campaign to make Norway and Swe
den dry.
Orders to turn the spigots and heal
the casks were received by radio
aboard the German North-Lloyd liner
Hanover while It still was some dis
tance out, according to passengers.
Not understanding the o'rder, they
said, ship officials closed the bars
long before the three-mile limit was
reached.
Racked by Precedents.
The general opinion of local steam
ship men and experts In admiralty
law was that Attorney General
Dougherty's position Was backed by
numerous precedents, some dating
back more than 1U0 years, In some
quarters the belief was expressed that
by prohibiting all ships from bring.
Ing liquor into American ports, ship
ping board craft would be placed
upon a more even competitive basis
With foreign-owned vessels.
Transatlantic passengers will shun
dry voyages,, however, was the opin
ion of other shipping men and may
result In some of the big foreign com
panies docking nt Canadian ports In
stead of those of the t'nitiil States.
Still others declared It would lx lin
possible for large ships, such ns the
Majestic and Mauretania, tq tstablish
regular "booze lighters" outside the
three mile rone where they would
leave supplies on entering nnd pick
tin m up on stuling away.
It also was pointed out that Amer
ica would In no ra. be able to pre
vent ships bringing liquor from
L'uiop, as long ns supplies were dis
posed Of before they loin he,
