Nebraska farmers want harvest hands and want them badly. The extent of that desire may bo measured by the wage which they are willing to pay , $3 a day and board , which Just about reaches the maxi mum offered anywhere. Since corn Is Nebraska's staple pro duct , reaching many times over the annual harvest of wheat , oats and rye , the cry for harvest hands doesn't come with the same vehemence as from the great winter wheat region of Kansas or the spring wheat raisers of Minnesota and the Dakotas. The need for harvest hands , however , is none the less acute. "I could place 500 men In the har vest fields right now , " said W. M , Mnupln , state labor commissioner , who w s In the city yesterday. "I have stacks of letters from farmers on flic In my office asking for harvest hands. But I haven't the men to send them. "It Isn't harvest hands alone- that farmers of Nebraska are needing eith er. They want men for.regular , nil the year around work , and they are willing" to pay attractive wages. A good farm hand can get | 35 a month , a house to live In , a good sized garden plot , a cow and plenty of feed for It , by making Inquiry at almost any farmIng - Ing community In the ntnte , NO SMOKER ON MOTOR CAR.

The Northwestern runs n regular train be tween Lincoln and Fremont which Is equipped with a smoking compart ment. BOARD WARNS BANKS. Must * Not Advertise Yet That State Protects Funds. Lincoln , July 9. The state Imnklng board Is preparing a circular letter to send to all state banks warning them against making unwarranted statements In regard to the guaranty law In their advertisements. Ono Instance has como to the at tention of the board In which a bank advertises the guaranty law goes into effect July 2 and that all deposits are guaranteed by the state. The ad vertisement asserts a time certificate In the bank Is as good as a state bond. The banking board holds the adver tisement is unwarranted , inasmuch as the law has been enjoined In the state courts , and will try to stop advertise ments of this kind. SALOONS TURNED DOWN. Licenses Refused by Supervisors of Charles Mix. Geddes , S. D. , July-9. The saloons of Charles Mlv county received a se vere Jolt when the board of county commissioners in session at Wheeler , by a unanimous vote , turned down the npplfcatlons for saloon licenses at Platte and Geddes and voted to re ject the bonds of the applicants. As the other towns of the county are on the reservation , today there are no saloons running legally In Charles Mix county. Attorney C. W. Pratt appear ed before the board in the Interests of the saloons and Attorney J. W. Lindsay represented the anti-saloon people , and It was only after extended arguments by both attorneys that the county board reached the decision and voted as above recorded. The blow is more severe in that the saloons at Platte have been open and running since July 1 without license and the Geddes saloon men had a carload of beer on the track here which It was necessary to refuse.

FOR PUBLIC BATH TUB. Unique Idea Projected by Newspaper at Butte. Butte Register : With ail the buildIng - Ing and Improving and general go aheadness in Butte we still find time to think of other improvements that would be a benefit to the town and attract strangers to It. The latest thing In the way of a pro jected Improvement Is a public bath. The proposition is not a new one , for some of our people have been Interest ed In the matter and have been figur ing on it for nearly a year. This week the proposition has been taken up again and something a little more def inite In the way of figures and plans have been secured. The plan is to build a large public bath by public subscription and make It self supporting , which there is no doubt It would be. The waterworks system will soon be In operation and the water for the bath would be available. It Is proposed to build a bath house on the ground of E. E. Bushnell , Just , north of the mill , and use the overflow from his large engine to heat the water with. At present the engines at the mill use all the water from two large wells. This water goes through the engines , Is passed out through pipes and fil tered over a high tower in order ta cool It off. It then runs In a shallow ditch back to the largest well and Is used over again. There is an enor mous amount of this water used every minute and It comes from the engines almost boiling hot , so that , used in connection with the city water , It would be the easiest thing in the world to have a hot water bath of any size we felt like building by simply locat ing It where this water could be used. Mr. Bushnell , the' proprieto'r of the mill , is deeply Interested in the propo sition and will do anything his power to make It go. He has designat ed the grounds that can be used and has offered suggestions In regard to how the swimming .tank should bo built and the proper way to drain It. We have received figures from an expert cement man on the probable cost of a swimming tank 30x50 feet , and * it Is now estimated that the swim ming tank completed with substantial building over it and equipped with dressing rooms and other things nec essary to a first class plunge bath , would cost In the neighborhood of $500. More steps will be taken immediate ly to see that the proposition goes through , and It is more than likely that Butte will be advertising to the trav eling public one of the finest plunge baths this side of Omaha in the course of the summer. New Depot at Long Pine. Long Pine Journal : Three cars of material arrived this week to be used in building a new Northwestern depot. The building will be located Just east of the eating house * and will be a frame structure 28x70. The plan for this new building Is quite an artistic one and will perhaps bo a very nice little depot. Work will begin at once and the building completed ns soon as possible. A sewerage system will also be connected with the building. "Ev- erythlng comes to him who waits , " and we have surely done some waiting for this new improvement. Sues for $20,000. James Goff , who was Injured by be ing caught in an elevator at the Mor- ton-Gregson packing plant at Nebras ka City some six weeks ago and badly crushed about the head , has brought suit against the company for $20,000. Gregory Pulls Down $1,000 ? Butte Gazette : Gregory won $1,000 from Lamro in the big ball game that was pulled off at Gregory Sunday , the score being 3 to 2 In favor of Gregory.

" Phillips pleaded guilty before JusticeTI ] Elseley and was lined $7'at the - Ing session of court. . . Mrs. Mossorll complains that Philof lips ] has annoyed her for some time , Mrs. MesscrlPa husband Is a driver for a local meat market. Hadar Suspects MUst Come Back. The two Hadar bank lobber sus pects who have been fighting In Iowa courts against being brought back to Pierce county for tilol , will have to come to Nebraska to face a Pierce county jury. This Is the decision of the Iowa supreme court. County Attorney Stewart of Pierce lias Just received notice to this effect. District court in fierce county will not convene until September 29 and Sheriff Dwyer will bo In no hurry about bringing the prisoners ! to Pierce , as ho realizes that the moil are 'des perate and that a jail delivery might result , James Morrison and Harry Joyce are the men charged with robbing the * Hadar bank last January. The evi dence against them Is said by the au thorities to be very strong. The men have made a hard struggle In Iowa to keep out of the Nebraska law's hands but unless an appeal to , the United States supreme court Is taken , they will bo brought back for trial. Train Conductor Makes Arrest. Ono of the first , and probably the first , arrest to be nindn under the now state law authorizing train conductors to make arrests , was made at Norfolk Junction Friday morning by Conductor J. C. Aid , coming In from Long Pine. \ drunken Greek laborer , one who has been ) working on a gravel gang out of bore 1 , was arrested and brought to the city jail by Detective Stuart of the Northwestern.

Special to The News : Prolonged attempts to propagate a new species of corn hns resulted In the me/ntnl / derangement of J. B. Jonca , a pioneer resident of this part of the state.

He and his faintly departed for California some tltuo ago , but recently ones himself returned to South Da- tola for the purpose of continuing his orn experiments. I BRYAN ON THE WATER WAGON , Trying Out New Vehicle for a White House Run. Leslie's Weekly : Bryan now nn- nounces his Intention to make war on the llqux > r Interests In order to keep he democratic party from being cong rolled by them. This sudden change of attitude , novel for n northern dent0 ocrat , has not greatly surprised the \merlcan people. Reading the signs of the times , Mr. Brvin recognizes the "net that the great leaders of his pari .y , who hnve followed him thrice to do- 'ent , nre not eager to place their standard - dard in his hand again. Mr. Bryan , > eing nothing if not resourceful , his stnnd for virtual prohibition can hnve but one meaning. He realizes the ah- surdlty of announcing that he will take n nouilnntion from the democratic par ty for the fourth time and lead it once nore to disnster. But ns he feels thnt. : ie must hn-'e another trf for the presidency - idency , he is casting about to get the nomination from the rapidly growing prohibition party. Those who may doubt thnt Mr. Bryan is willing to tie up with the prohibitionists should re-1 member thnt It is not hope of the presIdency - Idency thnt attracts him nnd keeps him nctlv ° in political affairs so mucht' as the profltnble publicity which he' would enjoy from posing as a candi date. It was his remarkable gift for gaining publicity which lifted Mr. Bry an from poverty and obscurity Into national prominence nnd made him one of the wealthiest men In his state. His capacity for securing free adver tising drives the ablest press agent to despair. By means of it , Mr. Bryan is enabled to derive from his speeches , his lectures , and his contributions to the press an Income of about $100,000 per year much more than the salary of the president of the United States. When the want ad that will be worth more to you personally than any ever printed appears , don't overlook it. Make It a want ad task to rent that furnished room quickly. Make it a want ad task if its a quest of the least Importance. Notice. The State of Nebraska , Madison county. ss. To whom It may concern and more particularly to Henry C.
