"Stamp all interchangeable , 'not
good locally In Nebraska. ' " This is
the form of a telegram which passen
ger agents of Nebraska railroads re
ceived yesterday , regarding inter
changeable mileage books which are
being used by commercial travelers.
The mileage has been sold for 2 %
cents , or $50 for 2,000 miles. Under
the now law traveling men can secure
tickets for two cents per mile. But
there are other complications that may
follow. With a ruling that the mile
age IB not good locally In Nebraska ,
it is feared those now holding these
books may bo at a loss , because It Is
said that there Is no law requiring
that these mileage books bo redeemed
The two cent faro will mark the end
of the Interchangeable mileage book
In this state.

Paving Resolution Adopted.
At a late hour the Noifolk avenue
paving matter was loached. C. E
Huinham addionscd the council bilof-
ly. Mr. Burnlmm levlowod the move
ment and said that In ouler to simpli
fy the situation It had been decided
to have only the oilginal petitions
hi ought befoie the council at this
time These petitions vveie signed
by a majoilty of the losldent proirerty
owners holding lots adjoining Norfolk
avenue between First and Sixth
stieets . Mr Buiiihain declared It to
be his hello ! that this paving move
ment would start Noifolk on the up
ward grade , taking Vis out of the rut
of the country town and placing us In
the class of cities He recounted what
might be expected In Noifolk from
the experience of Fremont since pave
ment was Introduced theio with its
tendency to encomago other Imptovc-
ments
A paving resolution , prepated In nc
coi dance with the petitions by the city
attotney , was adopted bj the unanl
mous vote of the councilmen piesont.
The rcbolutlon ptovldes for the pav
ing of Noifolk avenue , includingsttcot
inteisections , fiom the east side of
Flist stt cot to the west side of Sixth
btreet. The details of the resolution
were left blank to be filled in later.
The action taken by the council opens
the way for the oiganbatlon of the
paving district and practically Insuies
the paving of the street during the
coming summer. Details of the paving
are to come up later but it is under
stood that the property owners favor
a brick pavement. This resolution
was Introduced under the paving ordi
nance enacted some time ago.
.Need City Physician.
A communication iccelved from Dr
A. Bear suggesting the appointment of
a city physician was left over to be
consldeied at a later meeting.
Mrs. Margaret Boas piesented a
claim to the council asking for $90
damages as the result of falling on a
defective walk on Second street on
June 25 , 1900. The claim , which was
Itemized , was referred to the city at
torney.
Mayor Friday at the request of the
council announced the appointment of
a committee consisting of Councilmen
Craven , Mathewson and Kiesau to pre
pare resolutions bearing on the death
of former Mayor Dan Koenlgsteln.
Toward midnight the councilmen
left the city hall , adjourning until 9:30 :
o'clock Friday morning.
MAYOR FRIDAYJJOES NOT SEEK IT
City's Present Head More Than WillIng -
Ing to Pass Office to Another.
"The News can deny that I am seek-
hit ; a renomlnatlon , " said Mayor John
Friday yesterday afteinoon , speaking
In reference to statements made by
some of his suppoiters that the mayor
would bo a candidate before the dem
ocratic convention this spilng.
"I am not a candidate , " the mayor
said. "I would be more than willing
to pass the ofllco on to someone else.
In addition to the trouble which the
ofllco bilngs to the holder , It Is mak
ing an Increasing demand on my time.
A few years ago the city's business
was rather simple. During the two
years that I have been In ofllco the
business to bo transacted by the mayor
has Increased greatly The sewer sys
tem , the paving proposition , the mat
ter of floating bonds , these and simi
lar things increase the burden of the
ofllce. I have had the ofllco two terms.
Let some other man head the city
ticket. "
Mr. Friday did not any that ho would
not accept a ronomlnatlon , but was
very emphatic in declaring that ho was
not an active candidate.

"We have recently constructed ce

NEW COMPLICATIONS INJECTED
Supreme Court Street Closing Deci
sion May Affect Politics.
The 'itipiomo com ! di clHlon on the
Philip avenue mallei HOOIIIH to have
added liesh complications lo the cit }
political situation With the lopub
llcan waid meetings tonight and
the tepuhllcan cltv convention of
Wednosdaj calling for quick action ,
Noifolk lopuhllcans are still at son In
legaid lo theii candidates. The Honll
mont today favors the "diaftliig" of
some icsponslblo buslnoss man for the
nomination for ma > ot.
In icgard to the democratic side of
the election a man very close to the
democratic administration predicted
this moinlng that the entile retiring
lint of democi.itlc ofllco holders would
bo renoinlnated at the democratic con
vention. Ho thought that , including
Major Friday and Councilmen Crotty
and Stafford , none of the men would
refuse a renomlnatlon
The latest political IIOWH of the day
Is the flat refusal of Councilmen Kle-
sail of the Second ward and Mathow-
son of the First ward to accept a re-
nomination this } ear Both councilmen -
men aie republicans and both have
lendctcd valuable service on the coun
cil. Norfolk votcis are likely to In
sist on them changing their decisions.
In the matter of school boaid material
the republican part } Is much more for
tunate The three retiring members
of the board , Dr. Cole , C J Hlbben
and M. C. Ha/en are republicans.
These men have evinced considerable
interest in school affairs , are among
the most efficient members of the
hoard and can probably bo persuaded
to retain their place in the school gov
ernment.
Another Important feature in the
latest political gossip Is the enthusi
astic mention by a number of repub
licans of B.C Gentle for the city clerk
ship Mr. Gentle Is a vonng mart led
man in Noifolk of excellent habits and
aldlitj and many believe ho would1
make a flist quality city clerk , and
that , the position having gone by default
fault to the democrats last .vear , the
ofllce should be passed around.
Do Not Crowd the Season.
The first warm davs of spilng bring
with them n desire to got out and enJoy -
Joy the exhilarating air and sunshine
Children that have been housed up nil
winter are brought out and you won
der whore they all came from. The
heavy winter clothing Is thrown aside
and many shed their flannels. Then
a cold wave comes and people say
that grip is epidemic. Colds at this
season are even moro dangerous than
In mld-wlntor , as there Is much more
danger of pneumonia. Take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy , however , and
you will have nothing to fear. It al
ways cures and wo have never known
a cold to result In pneumonia when It
was ust'd It Is pleasant and safe to
