SCHLUSSEL PUSHES THE BARROW Smlthberger Is to Wear a Silk Tile and Carry a Large American Flag , While Schlusscl Is to Warble as He Trudg es Along. The old tlmo election hot still lin ers In the land. Saturday , November 1C , at 3 p. in. Herman Schlussel of Stanton Is paying nn election bet on the streets of Stan- on. Louis Smlthberger of Stanton Is idlug down the avenue in a wheel barrow while Schlussel Is warbling to he assembled crowds. The Stanton Picket says : "A few days before election , Louis Smlth berger bet Herman Schlussel that for nounty treasurer , Fred Feyerherm would have a majority of 400 and more. The conditions of the wager wore thnt on the date nnd hour named , the loser should give the winner n wheel barrow ride , the start to bo from in front of the court and thence through the middle of the street to n point opposite the Masonic hall. Fey- erherm's majority was 573 and so Smlthberger gets the ride.

Sam Sims Pays $25 for Treating His Friends on Election Day. Albion News : Last Friday Fred Starkey filed complaint with the conn- y attorney charging Sam Sims with living away liquor on election day con- rary to the laws of the land. It was charged that Mr. Sims had bottles of whisky and beer around the premises where the election was being held at Loretto , and that he was giving inmerous ones a drink , telling them t was "good republican whisky. " The story was also being told that Van Morehead , chairman of the republican central committee , had furnished Sims .he liquor. A warrant was Issued for the arrest of Sims , and he was given a hearing before the county judge. The defen- lant pleaded guilty to the charge , say- ng that he had given the boys a drink , ; ) ut that it was his own liquor and was not furnished by anyone , neither was lie given any money by anyone to pur chase it. He afterwards made an affi davit exonerating Mr. Morehead of having furnished any liquor or money. Sims was fined $25 and costs , which 10 paid. It is the general opinion that Sims as no more guilty than many others , and that it was not a square deal to cinch him and allow others to go free. The county attorney stands ready to prosecute anyone guilty if someone ivill Just furnish the evidence. That .here was "good fusion whisky" as well as that of the republican brand s freely charged , but no one as yet seems willing to support their state ment with an affidavit. Mr. Morehead , chairman of the re publican central committee , denies that he or anyone else for the commit tee furnished one cent for buying 11- : ] iior of any kind. What may have been done by the "fool friends" of any of the candidates , the committee or the party Is In no way responsible. The News Is in favor of ferreting this matter to the very bottom , and let the odium and punishment fall on ivhoever is guilty , regardless of person or party. We know that the rank and file of all parties are opposed to this kind of politics , and the decent people of all parties are In favor of putting a stop to this practice In Boone cnuuty.

The recent financial flurry was not all a bad story , according to an Omaha report , which says that the temporary money famine In the east has safe guarded the country from the possibil ity of a coal famine. All danger of a coal famine any where has practically been entirely re moved , Omaha railroad officials are quoted as saying , through the Influ ence of the financial flurry and the drop In freight business. There are enough freight cars and to spare , to haul coal for heating every town in the country through the win ter. While coal cars are In great de mand , through the lessening of the de mand for other cars , the railroads are well supplied with rolling stock to take care of the coal business. The Union Pacific claims to be able to give delivery within three weeks to any place along its lino. The Milwau kee , the Burlington and other roads say that there will be no trouble ex perienced this fall in handling coal. The condition of the coal market is better than it was when the famine existed last year , as practically every mine In the country is turning out its reatest production. There are no coal mine strikes , such as existed last year in Wyoming and Arkansas. RAILROAD WINS OVER ROOSEVELT One C. W. Roosevelt , Trespasser , Los es Suit for $51,000.

He was thrown under the car and lost a foot for which he wanted $51,000. Judge Munger in the federal court room In structed a verdict in favor of the rail road company because Roosevelt had no business on the right of way. SPARK ARRESTORS WORRY. Burlington Employe Says Spark Arrestors - restors Are Not Successful. Lincoln Journal : An operating de partment employe of the Burlington from the Alliance division of the road , who was in Lincoln yesterday , de clares that the spark arresters placed on engines to prevent fires from being started by locomotives on that divi sion , are not an unqualified success. He says they are bolted in the smoke stacks , so far down that they cannot bo cleaned readily , and that frequently they clog with soot and interfere with the draft of the engines. It is declared that In some instances the Interfer ence has been so serious that the en- glnemon have been compelled to break out the spark arrester netting from the smokestacks with sledges. Then when the engine goes to the round house again It must be refitted with a spark arrester. This employe says that brakemoii traveling over the road have perilous times In fighting fires that start on the roofs of freight cars while trains are In motion. He says thnt from one to six fires are reported by almost every freight crow that comes in with a heavily loaded train. The railroad has suffered the loss of many depots along the northwest line since the road was built , due to sparks from passing engines. How to successfully burn the light lignite without burning up everything on the right of way nnd outsldo of the right of way has boon n problem the road has been grappling with since operation became heavy on that line. In the northwest part of the state there are some heavy grades , and pulling heavy trains over these grades with engines fired with lignite 'means ' that a stream of sparks and fire is loft behind. Great deposits of lignite coal are found in the northwest , and the Bur lington main line , nnd Its branch line Into the Big Horn basin tap those de posits. It is necessary for the road to use this coal for the operation of its engines. Northwestern Wreck Near Logan. The Northwestern had n bad wreck near Logan , Iowa , during the week. Sixteen freight cars went into the ditch and were badly piled up , delayIng - Ing passenger tnilllc for n few hours. Northwestern Carries War Supplies. Omaha , Neb. , Nov. 1C.

Omaha Bee : "The trains , Nos. 1 and 2 , which we put on In the spring ; between lx > ng Pine and Chadron , have done a fair business during the sum mer , but when we put them on we did not Intend to keep them on during the winter months , " said General Manager Walters of the Northwestern. "Tho trnlllc on these trains wns largely through and now that the liomcseek- ers' season Is practically over , wo have taken them off for the winter.
