To.Editor of Tribune : I ask
space to give the facts concern
ing the false report that Norm
Brown , republican'candidate for
United States senator , was in
debted to the insolvent Kearney
National bank , at the time its
ffairs were scttlcdi on notes due
or money deposited therein by
ormcr State Treasurer Uartlcy ,
ml that the state lost its money
hrough Brown's repudiation of
is notes. Robert Payne , of Nc-
raska City , was receiver and
ettled the affairs of this bank.
Ic is a lifelong democrat , and
lis integrity is known through-
nit the state. To learn the
xact truth I wrote him as fol-
ows :
Lincoln , Neb. , Oct. 17 , 'Of. .
Mr. Rob't. Payne ,
Nebraska City , Neb.
Dear Sir : It has been reported
hat Norris Brown had certain
inpaid notes in your hands as re-
; eiver of the Kearney National
ank at the time of the bank's
ailure and your settlement of
ts affairs ; that he borrowed the
loney from state funds deposited
jy former btate Treasurer Bart-
cy ; that the state deposit was
56,000 which the state lost bc-
ausc Norris Brown did not pay
lis notes , one amounting to $35
and the other to $255. Will you
please give me the facts in regard
o this matter ? .
Very respectfully ,
W. B. Rosic ,
Chairman republican state ccn-
ral committee.
To this Mr. Payne replied :
Nebraska City , Neb. , Oct. 17.
Mr. W. B. Rose , chairman re
niblican state central committee.
Dear Sir : Among the assets
of the Kearney National bank ,
placed in my hands as receiver ,
were notes amounting to about
300 , signed by Norris Brown.
These notes had no connection
whatever with the deposit .of
$6,000 by Ex-State Treasurer
Bartley. As I reccollect the
acts , they are about as follows
Norris Brown owed the bank a ;
above stated. He claimed the
bank owed him an account for
attornc3''s fees , and wished to
offset his indebtedness to the
bank by the bank's indebtedness
to him. Equitably , it looked to
me as though such a compromise
would be just. These noteswith
other assets of the bank , were
duly advertised for sale in the
Kearney Hub , and sold with other
assets of the bank in March ,
1898. I do not recollect who
bought the notes or the amount
paid for them. A common-sense
interpretation of the transaction
would be that Brown receiver
from.the Kearney National bank
for services , as claimed by him ,
an amount equal to the difference
between the face value of his
notes and the amount paid for
the notes at public auction.
Yours very truly ,
ROIUCKT PAVNK.
That Norris Brown did not
owe the Kearney National bank ,
nor the state of Nebraska , any
sum whatever , at the time the
affairs of the bank were settled ,
was shown in a recently published
interview with N. P. McDonald ,
present county attorney of Buf
falo count } ' , who was familiar
with the facts. The truth was
also published by Robert Payne ,
receiver , in an interview given to
the Nebraska City Daily Tribune ,
Oct. fi , 1906.
Without making inquiry of
Mr. Payne to ascertain the facts ,
and disregarding the truth which
had been published , T. S. Allen ,
chairman of the democratic state
central committee , has been dili
gently publishing and circulating
throughout the state anonymus
handbills containing this false
report. I appeal to every fair-
minded man , regardless of party
affiliation , to resent the disreput
able methods employed by the
democratic state central commit
tee in their efforts to defeat
Norris Brown and prevent regu
lation of freight rates by the
election of a democratic legis
lature. W. B. ROSK ,
Chairman republican state cen
tral committee.
Mrs. Hill Dead.
The people of Dawson were
schocked on Wednesday by the
announcement that Mrs. E * C.
Hill , sr , , had died at her home in
Lincoln that morning. The im
mediate friends of the family
knew she had been ailing for a
ew days , but even by them her
ondition was not considered
larming , and Mr. Hill left Lin-
oln on Tuesday to look after
nisiness affairs in this section ,
le was at Stella when word
cached him of his wife's death
ind he took the first train for
vinooln. It is less than a month
igo that Mr. and Mrs. Hill cele
brated their golden wedding an-
liversary , and at that time she
ecmcd in the best of health.
She was seventy-seven years of
igc. The remains will be brought
o this city this ( Friday ) fore-
10011 and conyeyed to the Hill
lome north of town , where the
uneral services will be conducted
it two o'clock this afternoon ,
ntennent will be made in Pros-
> cct cemetery. The News Boy
lopes to be able next week to
give an appropriate obituary of
his worthy pioneer , and in the
neantime it extends sincere con
dolence to all the sorrowing rcla-
ives. 'Dawson News Boy.
Married.
On Saturday Oct. 13th , at the
lome of the Misses Rose and LIK-
dc Einebeck , in Lincoln , Ncbr. .
occurred the marriage of Mr. R.
. Attcrberry , of Crete , to Miss
A.tta Morrow , Rev. Maxwell Hall
officiating.
Mr. Atterberry is a typo in the
rcte Vidctte-IIerald office , a
young man well versed in the art
of printing , and is a thorough
gentleman in every respect.
Mrs. Atterberry is a daughter
of W. II. Morrow and wife , and
s well known to nearly everyone
lere , having spent the greater
part of her life in Shubert. She
is a lady of sterling qualities and
we congratulate Mr. Atterberry
upon his choice.
The Citizen joins with their
many friends here in wishing
thorn a long , happy and prosper
ous life. Shubert Citizen.
On the Quiet.
"Keep it out of the paper" is
the cry which the local news
paper publisher daily hears. To
oblige often costs considerable ,
though the party who makes the
request thinks the granting
scarcely worth saying "thank
you" for. A newspaper is a pe
culiar tiling in the public eye.
The news gatherer is stormed at
because he gets one item and
abused because he does not get
another. Young men , and often
young women , as well as older
persons , perform acts which be
come legitimate items for publi
cation and then rush to the news
paper office and beg the editor
not to notice their escapades
The next day they condemn the
same paper for not having pub
lished another party for doing
the same thing they were guilty
of , forgetting apparently their
last visit to the' ' printing office.
Tarkio Herald.
Sustains Broken Bone.
While Albert and George
Weaver were driving to Stella
last Saturday with a load of
apples , the team became unruly
and started down the steep
grade south of the Stella ceme
tery , at a swift pace. In turn
ing the corner at the foot of
this grade , the horses made the
turn too short and as a result
the wagon was upset. Albert
was thrown against a post and
sustained a broken collar bone ,
but his brother , having jumped
from the overturning wagon ,
was more fortunate , receiving
only a few bruises.
An Experiment.

covered that grains of corn from
the butt of the ear mature two
weeks earlier than grains from
the tip of the ear. Grains from
the tip of the car made long ears
and grains from the butt of the
ear made short ears. Brown

HEAR FOR THEIR TREASURE
How the Millions in Gold Stored in
Enpllsh IJnnks Arc
Guarded.
OllleltilH of the Bunk of England
lire said to bo worried for the
safety of the hoards of wealth
stored in ( heir strong boxes. The
ank station of the new under-
round railway in London is close
0 ( eh vaults of the world's grcal-
< sl institution of finance. At u
ecenl meeting of the bank diree-
's it was suggested ( hut some
brave but wicked person might
ict oil' a quantity of explosive in
the bank station , wrecking the
oundations of ( he stately build-
ngs above and sending tlu > bars
f bullion and streams of gold
eaking out to the station plat-
orm. The feasibility of this
scheme has been eoneeded by th"
bank governor. It is llgnred ,
lowevor , ( hut the "tube , " as the
uidergronnd raihvn.v is called , is
1 little too deep nt this point. To
each ( lie bullion vaults of the
mnk the conspirators would him
o drive a shaft nearly Kill feet ,
ind then they would face n muss
of concrete , thick innsoni niul
iteel. At one time the IS.uik o ! '
Sngland was the -object of con
piracy. Krom n ehureh lower
close by the bank was homlmided.
iVfterward ( he authorities had
he church and its tlireatening
ewer destroyed. Officials of the
Dank do not like the tunneling go
ng on in the clay heiientli their
'oundations. The constant pump
ng of water has affected even the
solidity of the olay , and from thin
cause one of ( he wells which is
ivithin ( he ( hree acres comprised
within the bank's precincts has
ilried up.
Those three acres are valued at
iboul $ (1,000,000 ( each , and the
rcasures within them are guard
ed in fitting fashion. On either
side of ( he main entrance to the
bank are two small glass houses.
In the one reposes a stately
Ijcadle. In the other are two wide
nwake detectives. Other detec
tives are in and out of the rooms ,
but always unobtrusively. At
light the police force is a heavy
one. Every evening a compact
bodof men , commanded by a lieu
tenant , and including two ser
goaiitu , two drummers , a bugler
and 30 privates , marches from
Wellington barrack to the bank.
They arc in full marching order ,
and before they enter ( lie tech
nical limits of "the city" exercise
( hat privilege of ( he guards of fix
ing bayonets. They are on duly
for 12 hours , and but for the recur
ring spells of sentry-go have an
easy time.
Officials of the hank provide
moderate refreshments for thes <
guards. In the guard room ,
which is of regulation pattern , arr
the usual shelf and blanket , suf
ficient accommodation for a sol
dier's intcrmillcntdo/Jngwlien on

There is hidden away in tliecentei
of the bank one of the most picas
ant gardens in London , where an
after-dinner cigar may be enjoyed
on a summer evening to the full ,
while the roar of the great metrop
olis around has died away to in
articulate murmurs.
A King's New Palace.
King Leopold of Belgium has
taken possession of the new Jap
anese palace in the Koyal park al
Laekc'n. It is divided into several
wings. Each of them contains
half a dozen of finely decorated
drawing-rooms. The furniture ,
the ornaments , the sculptures , the
paintings , the screens and thereof
roof were executed atTokio by the
best Japanese artists. More
than L',000 electric lights illumin
ate tbe palace , where the king in
tends giving some gorgeous recep
tions in honor of the shah of Per
sia next summer.
Blessings of Speech.
The victim of the automobile
accident was plainly dying. He
was just delivering a touching
speech about the "wife and chil
dren" when he caught sight of the
man who had run him down. A
volley of choice expressions arose
from the dying man's lips. This
apparently relieved him greatly ,
for he got up and walked home.

DOWN ON THE RIO QRANDE
Contractor Tolls of an Exciting Ex *
porlenco In Crossing Stream
in tlio West.
"To give you an idea of what
sort of a river the Ifio Grande i
I'll tell you an experience that I
had in getting across it with a
derrick , " said Haymond McDon-
gall , a mining man from New Mexico
ice , to a Milwaukee Free Press
man. "I was a contractor in rock
work in those days and was tak
ing my derrick from the east side
of the river to the .Magdalenas.
The derrick was on four wagon
wheels and four mules were haul
ing it. 1 had my two helpers along
and one of them drove the mules ,
lie was an old timer , which was
lucky , and if I had trusted to my
own judgment I might have made
a mistake ( hat would have cosr
me my mules and , derrick , if not
m.v life.
' \Ve readied ( lie Rio < ! ramie an
hour before sundown and I saw
u wide river bed , but no water
only dry sand from one bank to
( lie other. It was a new hind of
river ( o me , hut my driver said
that it was all right that it was a
way the Kin Cn-amle had. Tin *
water was ( here , only it was llow-
ng through the sands under the
hannel instead of in it. I be-
ng a tenderfoot was for camping
> n the nearer bank where the
; rass was good , but McCartney ,
he driver , said that would never
lo unless 1 was willing to take my
hances of staying there a week or
wo ; that water sometimes came
lown the channel , a good deal of
t , and that it would be well to get
icross while we were sure that
ve could.
"We were starting across over
he dry sands and I was thinking
ivhat an easy way it was of ford
ng a river when of a sudden the
two lead mules were floundering
n a quicksand and the whole out
fit came near being drawn in. We
got the two leaders clear of the
larness and ( he other two mules
drew them out , one at a time. We
litched them up a gain and by male-
inr a long circuit got past the
inicksand and to the other bank.
"By that time it was ten o'clock
ind the moon had risen. The
mules had just begun to climb the
bank when we heard a roaring
noise up the channel. It came
from a wall of water that
stretched from bank to bank and
was traveling toward us fast. It
looked in the moonlight to be four
feet high , and there was high wa
ter behind it sending it on. We
didn't need to holler to the mules.
They heard what Avas coming and
clawed up the bank like cats.
"We got out all right , derrick
ind all and there were not three
minutes to spare. Before we had
finished our supper the river bed
was full bank high , with a torrent
( hat eddied and roared as it
rushed past our camping place as
i ) ' it had been sorry to miss us and
would like to get tip where we
were. There was not a cloud in
( he sky or a sign of rain anywhere
and the Hood may have come from
a cloudburst in Colorado 200 miles
away But it came near get
ting us.
"I had learned one lesson , and
that was in traveling by wagou
always camp on tne farther side
of the stream. And I had learned
( o put no trust in the Rio Grande. "
Sixty-Ton Steel Hope.
The biggest rope ever used for
haulage purposes has just been
made for a district subway in
Glasgow. It is seven miles long ,
4 § inches in circumference , and
weighs nearly CO tons. It has been
made in one unjointed and un-
spliced length of patent crucible
steel. When iu place it will form
a complete circle around Glasgow ,
crossing the Clyde in its course ,
and will run at a speed of IS miles
an hour.
Size of Circus Kings.
Circus rings are always uniform
iiiflizeas circus horses arc trained
to perform in a standard ring 42
feet in diameter. In a larger or a
smaller ring their pace becomes
uneven , irregular and unreliable ,
and the riders in turning somer
saults are liable to miscalculate
the curve and miss their footing.
Argentina's New Industry.
During the last two years about
.1,000,000 mulberry trees have
been planted in Argentina , which
has now about 10,000,000 of such

will eventually become an impor
tant product of that couatrj.
