Lawsuit in Norfolk.
ON BATTLE CREEK ELECTION.
Village Clerk Kllburn Refused to
Prepare for nn Election and a
Mandamus Was Secured Compel
ling the Holding of One Tomorrow.
rKiotn Momlny'H Dally.1
Perhaps In no town In tlio Htato
ilocs as peculiar n condition of af
fairs confront the voters at tlio olec-
tlon tomorrow as at llattlo Crock ,
twelve miles west of tlio city. There
will bo an election of village trustees
there tomorrow but It was only
brought by action of the district court
of Madison county in session in the
waiting room of t.ho Northwestern
depot at South Norfolk Saturday
noon and only blank ballots
M < iui > i.a will bo
used at the election.
The voters of the town have placed
but one ticket In the field , but the
village clerk , II. II. Kilburn , held
that their action was taken too late
and refused to take the preliminaries
toward the holding of an election
and no election would have been held
but'for the action of the citizens of
that town who communicated with
District .Tudgo J. P. Boyd of Noligh
and secured an extraordinary session
of the district court at the Junction
between trains , and summoned wit
nesses to appear at the hearing which
was for the purpose of securing a
mandamus , compelling the holding
of an election tomorrow as the law
provides. The court bold that an
election must take place , but decided
that the village clerk could not be
compelled to have the names of the
candidates placed In nomination
printed on the ticket , but If enough
of the voters will write In the names
of the men placed In nomination they
will be elected , and the old board
will not bold over as would have been (
the case If the village clerk had not j
been served with papers commanding
bis action In the matter.
Among those who cjune down from
Battle Creek to attend the sitting of
court were T. D. Preece , M. G. Doer-
ing , Dr. E. Tanner , Dr. I. .T. Daniel ,
Danford Taylor , W. E. Hoover , Frank
Flood , P. F. Zimmerman , Owen
O'Neill and P. E. Martin.
The citizens caucus placed In
nomination by petition the names of
M. G. Dooring , W. L. Hoyor and T.
D. Preece , but objection was made
by Fred Schereger and filed with Village - .
lage Clerk Kllburn last Monday , the
grounds for the objection being that
the petition was not signed by the
legal number of voters and that the
business address of each signer was
not given. The village clerk gave
the case a hearing Wednesday after
noon and after the examination of
witnesses the objections wore sus
tained. The petitioners were represented - .
sented by M. C. Hnzen of this cltv '
and after the decision of the village
clerk arrangements wore at once
made to bring the case before Judge
Boyd and the election ordered. It
now remains for the remonstrators
to work up support for the present
board , or the probability Is that the
Citizens' ticket will be elected.
Clerk Kilburn was represented by
Judge Powers of this city.'c '
Reasons for the objection were
given the Battle Creek Enterprise as' '
follows :
"I have no personal enmity toward
any of the candidates. A number of
residents In the south part of town ,
Including myself , had reached an
agreement with the present board of
trustees whereby ( he much needed
ditching on the road abutting on our
property might be done. Wo had sub
scribed money for this purpose and
have no assurance , In case of the
election of three new members , that
wo would got our just demands. " Mr.
Scheorger added , however , that ho
would withdraw all objections when
assured that these candidates would
carry out the plans of the old board
In regard to the ditch.
Chief Kern as a Sprinter.
Chief Kern of the Norfolk fire do-11
partment Is something on the get-11
nway himself , as was conclusively
proven last Saturday. New couplings
were being placed on the hose and
ho was superintending the work and
testing the hoso. On one test In par
ticular ho found a bad leak. He was
standing directly over It and when
tlio unseasonable fountain sprung
forth ho received the full bonetlt
for a second , and only a second the
next Instant ho was far from the
break and those who witnessed Uio
feat wore particularly struck with
Ills agility. It was a chilly day and
anyway the duties of the chief have
inoro to do with the opposite element ,
and oven If It was Saturday ho was
not to bo blamed for not \\antlng a
i bath with water at thatMeuiperaluro
and in that particular manner.
NEW MACHINERY WILL DE INSTALLED -
STALLED AT ONCE.
WILL DE LATEST AND BEST.
Sugar City Cereal Mills Expecting a
Complete New -Equipment at Any
Time to be Installed . Immediately.
Will be Closed Down.
The Sugar City Cereal Mills In
among tlio progressive enterprises of
Norfolk ( hat will undergo a further
development ( this season , which , following -
lowing the work that has been ac
complished there during the several
past seasons , will bring ( ho plant
Into a degree of perfection that will
IK unrivalled by any milling plant
In this section of the country.
|
. . It Is proposed to Install now ma
| chinery throughout. The machinery
at present in use is not worn out ,
but since It was placed a number of
years ago there have been muny im
provements ' made on milling ma
' chinery , and the Norfolk company
propose to have the best and latest.
The machinery has been ordered
from the Ellls-Challmcr company at
Milwaukee , WIs. , one of the largest
and best known makers of such ma
chinery In the world , and Is expected
to arrive at any time. After It Is re
ceived In Norfolk the mill will bo
closed down and a largo force of men
will be set to work Installing the new-
plant and making necessary repairs
about the building. The work of in
stalling the machinery will bo crowd
ed along as rapidly as possible so
that there will not need bo an un
usual delay In filling the many orders
that are on the books of the com
pany. With this equipment of now
machinery the mill will be In better
shape than ever before to handle the
largo and growing demand for its
products. .

GREATER WEALTH PRODUCER
THAN ANY OTHER ITEM.
Over $233,000 Was Required in Nor
folk Last Year to Handle the Egg
Crop of This One Firm Forty-one
Cars Were Shipped to the East.
Asks one wag : "Oh why did the
ihicken cross the road ? Too bard ?
Jnn't guess ? Don't know ? To got

Hut had the wag known th enor
mity of the chicken's importance in tlio

\merica and the world every year
hat goes by , ho would have chosen '
some other beast for his jest.
. The car loatl of eggs shipped by
ho S. 1C. Dexter cold storage com
pany from Norfolk to Lowell , Mass. ,
y esterday , made the ninth carload lot ,
illed. ' to the brim with little white

For the lumber alone that was used
In crating the products that went out
; if Norfolk , a bill of between $9,000
and $10,000 was run up.
Today the firm began to fill Its
Norfolk cold storage and not another
eggs will be exported to Lowell or
any other point until the Institution is
completely filled. Deadwood , Lead
City and other points are regular
customers who will have to wait.
Last year Mr. Dexter shipped forty
one cars of eggs from hero to Low
11 ell , to say nothing of the buttter , etc.
This year ho expects to do much more
from the fact that there arc more
hens In northern Nebraska and they
are working harder.
"You might bo surprised , " said Mr ,
Dexter today to The News , "to know
that the chicken product In this coun
try amounts to more money In a giver
time than any other product known
The chicken Is unrivalled by the
corn crop , the wheat crop , the gold
mine or the coal mine or any other
agricultural product In the world
That means the poultry , meat and
egga combined. The value annually
runs Into the millions and millions o
dollars and that IB why the farmers

Enthusiastic Fans Would Sup
port a Team.
SHOULD BE A GOOD SEASON.
Amusement that Would Draw Visi
tors to the City During the Sum
mer. Many Strangers .Will be
Here and It Is Presidential Year.
[ Fiom Mnmlny'H Dully 1
With the warming up of tin1 \\ea

Norfolk and it In
proposed by MUIII-
of ' the fans that the city shall Imvo

ritory of which Norfolk Is the logical
center. Negotiations are now In pro
gress and If reaaomiblo tmppoil IH
guaranteed It Is promised that Nor
folk will have a team that will lay
out anything traveling down I lie pIKc.
Norfolk has a good reputation of aup-
porllng winning teams and thin Is
what those who are Interested In
( he movement propose to fnrnlni. ]
The playing of ( he llrst game In
Omaha yesterday ban set the lulk
going strongly , and tlio prospccla of
many .strangers being In and vlalt-
Ing Norfolk during the summer aca-
HOII given them a basin for argument
toward the production of a line of
amusements that will hold and draw
the crowds.
\V. W. Hobcrtn and a number of
( ho former backers of Norfolk teams
are Interested , and with the return
of Leland Spauldlng to the city , ac
companied by C. C. Whiting , a swift
outfielder , a new impetus has been
given to the gossip. It IK thought
that Captain Fullmer of Sclmylor can
be Induced to head ( lie movement
and bis success at Schuyler and In
Iowa proves him the kind of ma
terial that would bo acceptable here.
It is thought that he will be glad
to come to Norfolk and undertake
the organization of a winning .
team and an honest one Hint will mil I
ake a back seat for any of them.
> ast season Fullmer was captain of
team at Ogden , Utah , where he
\on marked recognition from ( lie
ntlmsiasts ami lie closed the season
t Atlantic , Iowa , where he captured
he pennant for that town. He gave
good honest worl ; and strong games ,
ml bis mipport was strong and on-
husiastlc. Whiting was with tlio
earn throughout the season and Is
pen to an engagement , while with
Spaiilding and several other players
hero Is a nucleus hero right now for
i strong organization.
Tills is one of the yeara that Nor-
'oik can well afford a hearty support
> f a team. It will mix well with the
inlltlcal excitement of a presidential
ear and Norfolk will be expected
't o furnish some sort of entertainment
'or the Hiimmor season. It is pro-
> oscd to see what can bo done for
lie support of a team at an early
late and a hearty expression from
he enthusiasts and tho.su who ap > -
f' ' ireclate ' the advantages of a strong
earn Is desired.
