MEETING HELD TO PERFECT THE
CONSTITUTION.
ALL TOWNS MUST BE ORGANIZED
Nine Horses Have Dccn Stolen In Thlo
Section Within the Past Few Wcckc.
Must Organize to the Rosebud Only
Members to be Protected.
About twenty-five farmers attended
Hie mooting of tlio North Nebraska
Live Stock Owners' Protective asso
ciation bold In tlio city hall at Nor
folk Saturday afternoon for tlio pur
pose of amending the constitution so
thai subordinate associations may bo
provided with a treasurer and keep
their own funds. The nmttur was dis
cussed at some length and tlio asso
ciation finally referred the nuesUim tea
a connnlttco and adjourned to meet
next Saturday.
The meeting came about because
other towns In this territory have been
organizing mid have raised tlio point
thai they ought to have their own
treasury and keep their own funds.
Some of the members put forth the
idea thai there ought to bo one cen
tral organization to receive all funds
ind take care of the business. Others ,
however , were strongly In favor ol
-.illowlng the local organizations In va
rious places to maintain their own of-
V ficers and to transact their own Indi
vidual business but , in case they were
the victims of a horsothief'a work
they would call on the central associa
tloa anil every association would im
mediately bo notified and would start
to hunting down the thief.
It was thought that the committee
would probably arrange for the local
association control of funds , etc.
Must Organize Clear to Rosebud.
"In order to capture these horse
thieves who have been working in
northern Nebraska , we must have an
-tl-horscthlof assoclallons ns far north
west as the Rosebud reservation , and
they must all be alive to the work , "
Bald George W. Losey , formerly slier
iff of Mndlson county , who attended
the meeting Saturday and took an ac
tlve part In favor of giving all author
ity to local associations.
"Unless wo do that , " ho said , "we
will fall to get the thieves. If we do
that , we will capture them. The
liorsethievcs from this section Invar !
ably work to the northwest. Most of
the horsethieves that I trailed when
I was sheriff , went to the northwest
Horses are becoming more and more
Tahmble each year , and the result Is
Jhat the thieves are growing bolder.
Begin Hunting Forty Miles Away.
If we are to succeed , we must begin
-to hunt for the thieves forty mile
from the point where the horse Is
stolen. These thieves will drive a
team or ride a horse from forty to
sixty miles tlio first night , so that wo
must begin looking In a circle forly
miles out , and from there on further
away. "
During Mr. Losey's term of office
& thief one night stole a horse from
Battle Creek and rode to St. Edward
The thermometer was twenty-seven be
low zero. The next night the llilcl
rode to Central City , where he was
caught. Another thief was caught ii
Iowa by nn accident. lie stole ahorse
3n Norfolk. On the train Losey men
ttoned to a friend that he was looking
lor a horsethlef. Another passenger
overheard the remark and declare
that he saw the horse In question soli
to a sheriff near Essex , Iowa. Losey
trailed the man , got his thief and
forced the sheriff to give up the hqrse
though the sheriff had bought the an
imal after receiving a letter telling of
the theft.
A team of horses stolen at Madison
last year , with three blind eyes In the
two horses , was driven forty miles to
Neligh and sold at an aucllon sale
Thai team was captured through the
jicws announcement In The News.
Only Members Protected.
Farmers of Norfolk and the north
era part of the state want to distinctly
understand that only members of the
association in good standing will be
protected. No effort will be made b >
the association to capture thieves who
molest any but members. This Is onlj
fair to those who are In , because otherwise
orwise Iho association would nol sue
ceed.
Al leasl nine horses have been stolen
on within the past few weeks : Two
from Norfolk , five from render , two
from "Wayne and one from Verdigre.
Wakofleld farmers are organizing
the Logan Valley protective associa
tion. Hosldns farmers are enthusiast

he Interstate Commerce comnils
slon has handed down n decision that
lie railroads can no longer extend the
Imit of tickets because of sickness.
The practice of the railroads has been
o oxlond the limit of a ticket provided
the purchaser made sufficient showing
that he was unable to continue his
travels within the required time , but
this hns been changed. The commts
slon held that perhaps this should be
done in cases of emergency , but that
00 per cent , of the cases were notbona
lido and were simply a subterfuge to
get an extension on a cheap rate tick
et when the purchaser was not entitled
to It. The interstate commerce com
mission has ruled that the railroads
may continue to make excursion ratop
on the certificate plan for designated
societies. Another ruling Is given that
party rates , heretofore made by the
railroads for organized parties one
way , such as theatrical parties an <
such organizations , must now apply
to the public alike. The supreme
court , under the old law , decldci"
against this stand but what it will do
under the new law will have to bo do
tormined.
