BOOTLEGGERS AND INDIANS RUN VILLAGE
Condition Become So Vile that Peo
ple Protest Against All Saloons
After City Marshal U
Disarmed.
HOMER, Neb., May 1. (Special) Tomor
row the village board of this place will be
called upqn to decide whether Homer shall
be a dry op wet town the coming year, as
on that time the question of granting sa
lon licenses for the coming- year will come
up for action. The applicants for licenses
are Harry Randall, Joe Muney and Joe
O'Dell. , Two ealoons have been run here
the last year, conducted by Harry Raw) all
find Bherra Ennls, both of whom have been
Indicted the last year in the United States
courts at Omaha for conspiracy in gelling
liquors to Indians. Since the order of Jus
tice Brswer some weeks ago the saloon of
Horry Randall has been thrown open to the
Indian trade, while Knnla has refrained
from aelling liquora to the Indians under
thrt decision, feeling 'bat It wis not a safe
proposition unU officially decieod by tne
courts. Since the Indians have hurt free ac
cess to si! the liquors wsnted matters have
lieen running at a lively pace here, even
outdoing the previous record during the
bootlegging days, when drunken Indians
and squaws could be seen by the dozens
lying around In a drunken stupor all over
town. Instead of getting their liquors
smuggled to fhem and going on in seclu
sion to drink the Indian now stands up at
the bar alongside, bis pole face brethren
And places his order and Is served with
the Are water out of the name bottle.
Hardly a day ha passed but from one to a
doien fights and drunken brawls have taken
place on the strwets, all caused from the
Indians be'ng drunk.
Cittern Would Close Saloons.
The climax seemed to have been reached
on last Friday, when, early In the after
nopn,flghtlng commenced near Rasdall's
saloon, "keeping "up "until late In the even
ing, with the result that the respectable
element of the. town'Mjecame so thoroughly
disgusted that an impromtu meeting of
buslnrM men was. held at the store of F. B.
Huckwalter to dhicuss the situation, with
the result that those present decided that It
was better for the, best interests of the
town, both morally and In a business sense,
tht no saloons be ' had In the town the
corning year, and.' those present,; pledged
themselves to exert their influence !n this
direction. Those present at the meeting
were: Thomas and John Ashford. mer
chants and bankers; C. J. and .-Harold
O'Connor, bankers and merchants; Dr. D.
B. Rtld worthy. F. B. Buckwalter, merchant;
James King, clerk; Martin 8. Mansfield, Jr.,
butcher; M- J- Hermann, merchant; Jud
O'Dell, butcher; Samuel Rymlll, farmer.
All present were of the opinion that the
disgraceful scenes which have been taking
plaee'on our streets for the last month
were a- pinnace to society, as well as the
business Interests of our village.
t' City Marshal Is Disarmed.
Tr.e " "raw which brone the camel's
back.' last Friday commenced about 3
o'clock In the afternoon, when A Ion so
Bhaw, alias "Feather Legs," who Just last
week was released from Jail in Omaha for
bootlegging, got Into a fight with Charley
Fisher, a Winnebago Indian, In which
rusdall later on took a hand. When Mar-
. l. ' '
shal Ogburn arrived on the scene he was
pou led upon, bis club taken from him and
thrown Into Omaha creek and he was
forced to retreat. This melee was followed by
another, which lasted away Into the night.
It was only a couple of weeks ago that the
marshal was pounded by L. Lambert, who
Is the same person who pounded Father
Schell at Dakota City a few days previous.
Drunken Indians have made it unsafe for
people traveling the public highway Into
Homer from the Winnebago agency, as
after the Indians are once filled with
"boose" and their money Is all gone, they
are loaded Into wagons and started for
their homes In a drunken condition, wltn
their horses going as they please, making
drivers of other vehicles seek places of
safety. It looks very much now. If the
business men of Homer stick to the agree
ment reached, that there will be no saloons
In Homer the coming year, and If there
should be any, they must be run according
to law.

ELECTION LAW TO BE TESTED
Attorney General to Bring Aotion in the
8npreme Court.
FIRST SESSION OF B0ARB OF EQUALIZATION
Nothing Done Beyond Allowlagr
Omaha Rrldre and Terminal
Company to Correct Its
Retara of Mileage.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, May 1. (Special Telegram.)
Oovernor Mickey announced today that a
suit would be Instituted this week to test
the constitutionality of the biennial elec- '
tlon law.
Acting on his suggestion, Attorney Gen
eral Norrla Brown has made arrangements
to have a cltisen offer a certificate of
nomination as regent of the university to
be filed with the secretary of state, who
will refuse to issue certificate, and then
be tnandamused In the supreme court.
The governor stated that while the law
might save expense, it Is clearly In viola
tion of the constitution, as Its object can
only be accomplished by an amendment.
The suit was foreshadowed by Attorney
General Brown several weeks ago.
The bin did not carry an emergency
clause and cannot become a law until July
1. but It Is stated on the authority of At
torney General Ttrewn that the court can
entertain the milt In order that If It should
be held invalid the proper arrangements
can be made for the fall election.
State Board of Equalisation.
The State Board of Equalisation met this
afternoon to begin the work of railway
assessment. The usual delegation of rail
way representatives was In attendance,
headed by R. J. Clancy, who announced
positively that the members who stood by
the railways In killing the commodity
freight rate bill would be flying with the
geese. Clancy, when asked what he was
going to ask for, hesitated a moment. and
then answered, "Justice."
Tom Benton did what little talking was
done, seeking to explain why the assessed
value of the Pullman Sleeping Car com
pany In the state had fallen from 894,000
for the report year of 1904 to $93,000 for
the current statement, notwithstanding the
heavy traffic to the St. Louis exposition.
He claimed that during the prior year
heavy east and west traffic, necessitating
long trains of Pullman cars, accounted for
the difference. He said that the exposi
tion traffic gave Nebraska a very short
Pullman haul.
The Omaha Bridge and Terminal com
pany asked and was given permission to
change Its mileage statement from 11.07
miles to 1.49. It was said that the man
who made out the statement filed with the
board was new at. the business and made
the mistake of Including sidetracks.
The board will resume Its session at 11
o'clock In the morning.
Ministers Consort with Laborers.
Uncoln preachers today agreed to meet
with the Central Labor union and elected
the following to serve as dele
gates: Rev. H. C. Swearingen of , the First
Presbyterian church. Rev. Samuel Zane
Batten of the First Baptist churoh and
Rev. Motler A. Bullock of the Vine Street
Congregational church. A resolution was
offered declaring the sympathy of the
ministers for the laboring men. Speeches
were made expressing the Joy of the cleri
cals that they would have an opportunity
to show their friendship for the tollers by
exchanging delegates.
Barns Insists on Story.
Representative Joe Burns sticks to his
story .' that .Waldemar Michaelsen, the
Omaha city electrician offered to pay $1,000
to secure the withdrawal of Howard Burns,
the representative's son, from the bidding
for equipment at the Hastings asylum In
order that the Western Electrical company,
the next lowest bidder, might secure the
work.
The Burns bid on engine, dynamo and
motors for the Hastings asylum was $4,650,
while the bid of the Western Electrical
company was $5,840, and that of Abadle &
Co. of St. Louis was $,913. It is the bid on
this Item that Burns now says he was
asked to secure a withdrawal.
He says that he replied to the offer by
saying that his aon would go ahead with
the work even if he lost $500. He said that
his son was at Norfolk and that he would
have to reach him by telephone If he de
sired to discuss the matter with him.
Burns made the charge after Michaelsen
had called attention to the fact that How
ard Burns had laid a statement before the
board to the effect tkat he had bid $32 too
low .on the work at Hastings through a
mistake, leaving It to the board to take
such action a It deemed proper. This the
Omaha man claimed was a part of the
Burns scheme to bid very low and then ask
the board, when the contract was secured,
to make a greater allowance.
In the course of a heated argument be
hind the closed doors of the private office
of the secretary of state, members of the
board charged that Michaelsen was the .real
party In Interest, despite the fact that the
Western Electrical company was repre
sented In the city by George E. Cornelius.
This statement Michaelsen vehemently
denied.
Cornelius chsrged that a false entry of
his company's bid on the boiler at Hastings
had been made by Galusha, the secretary
of state, showing a bid price $1,000 less than
the figures contained In the sealed pro
posal opened April 22. The board claimed
to have received a telegram from the com
pany asking that the bid b decreased from
$11,220 to $10,200. but it was not produced,
and Cornelius insists that It wss not re
ceived, but that the board was trying to
make his bid ridiculous In the Interest of
Burns.
Good Outlook for Junior Normals.
State Superintendent McBrlcn has re
ceived advices Indies ting that nearly 1.500
teachers have enrolled In the Junior nor
mal schools for ten Weeks' work during
the summer. At Holdrege 250 are enrolled,
but about 300 have registered at Alliance,
McCook, North Platte and Valentine.
The superintendent has named the prin
cipals of the high schools at the Junior
normal towns to take charge of these In
stitutions. At Alllenee W. H. Barti Is
named, O. II. Thomas at McCook, O. W.
Neale at North Platte. R. H. Watson at
Valentine, 8. H. Thompson at Holdrege.
The work In all of these schools will begin
June 5. The faculties are yet to be chosen.
Stays Sentence of Crltes. '
Chief Justice S. A. Holcomb has granted a
stay of execution to Judge A. W. Crltes of
Chadron, receiver of the United States land
office under Cleveland, who was sent to Jail
Friday by District Judge Harrington for
contempt of court. The bond was fixed at
$200.
Crltes, as counsel for Benjamin Pitman,
asked questions of him while on the wit
ness stand In defiance of the order of
Harrington, who fined him $10 for con
tempt and remanded him to Jail until the
refractory attorney would agree to pay.
Judge Holcomb telegraphed the stay to
Chadron, where Crltes was In Jail.
Reject Broom Compay's Bid.
The State Board of Public Lands and
Buildings has rejected the offer of the Lee
Broom and Duster company of 50 cents a
day for convict labor and ordered that the
secretary advertise for new bids. The
members of the board hope to secure com
petition with s resultant Increase In the
bid. During the pendency of the Ernst
twine plant bill before the legislature a
Minnesota trunk manufacturer mado in
quiries', but the prospect for the adoption
of the bill as a law seemed so imminent
that he failed to bid. It Is claimed that
the conditions under which the broom com
pany has had the convicts at 60 cents a
day make the net return to the state about
40 cents. The new offer Is about the same
as the old contract.
Reappoints Food Commissioner.
Governor Mickey has reappointed W. F.
Thompson of Hall county food commis
sioner. Two years ago he was appointed on
the recommendation of W. H. H. Harrison
of Grand Island. He remained a Harrison
adherent until the Grand Island man en
tered the race against Mickey v for the
gubernatorial chair, when he affirmed his
allegiance to his official chief. Recently
Thompson has beerf spending considerable
time on hut farm and a report was pub
lished Indicating that he had actively re
sumed farming. He now denies that he
has neglected the work of the office' during
the last three months. .

braska department of Charities and Cor
rections have Issued a call for the ninth

FREMONT, Neb., May 1 (Special. )
Right-of-Way Agent, Averlll of the Great

days looking up the title to real estate
along the proposed route of the Ashland
cut-off through the city. His Investigations
would Indicate that the company has sev
eral different routes In view, and as many
different depot sites, and consequently
property owners in the east, south and
west parts of the city are anxiously await
ing developments and wondering whether
their property Is likely to bo taken. The
purchase of the Missouri Valley Land com
pany's holdings by the Stock Yards Land
company was taken to indicate that their
terminals would be' in the southeastern
part of the cl(y, the road coming In from
the east side, but Mr. Averlll has spent
much time examining the records of prop
erty In the western part of the city, and
In the southwestern part north of the
Northwestern main line, whlcji would bring
them a block nearer the business part
of the city than the two other roads. The
Great Northern asks no bonus from Fre
mont, but only a square deal, and is will
ing to pay fair values but not fancy prices
for property taken or damaged. A branch
of the Burlington and Missouri from
Chalco to this city would give them a
shorter line than the Union Pacific and
enable them to compete for the Omaha
Fremont business.

The strongest testimony of the ex
cellence of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
rests In the fact that physicians have
freely prescribed it during the past
sixty years.
As you know, physicians are( never
prejudiced in favor of Proprietary
Medicines. To have them endorse a
remedy is the most positive kind of
proof that it must have unusual
virtues.
One reason why we have this favor
of the Medical Profession is because
there is no secret about Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral.
Time and time again we have pub
lished the formula in the principal
Medical Journals of this country and
Europe, and have mailed it to nearly
every practising physician in the
United States. So it follows that
when your physician orders Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral for your cough he
knows precisely what he is giving you.
To say that Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
will cure every disease of the throat,
bronchial tubes, and lungs, without a

single failure, would simply be stating
an untruth. Even the most skilful
physician would make no such claim.
We would that we could prepare an
Infallible remedy, one that . should
never fail under any circumstances.
But that is beyond-our art, and we
only promise to give the best that the
medical intelligence of our times can
devise and modern skill prepare.
Vividly alive to the responsibility of
making such a remedy we are deter
mined none shall be disappointed
through our neglect. We promise
you that every bottle of Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral shall be the very best that
can possibly be made.
Do not undervalue the services of
a skilful physician. No Proprietary
Medicine can take the place of the
family doctor. Therefore we say: Con
sult your physician freely about your
case and ask him what he thinks
about your taking Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral for your cough. If he says take
it, then take it. If he says do not take
it, then follow his advice. iitfm!&z
