McCurdy, custodian of the stat house,
who la hearing the charges of Incompetency
against Night Watchman Thomas Graham
based nn the allegation that he is too fat
for duty, today desired to curtail the wit

there must be a limit to the number of
witnesses Introduced. The attorneys for
Graham Informed lilm that whether he ad
journed the hearings or not they would
remain and take testimony, so McCurdy
decided to go ahead. The whole hearing
has been a matter of levity largely.
Graham has arranged to appeal to the dis
trict court and will remain In his position
till the higher courts have decided the mat
ter. An interesting phase of the matter
Is presented In the threats to defeat the
confirmation of the reappointment of Mc
Curdy as custodian In the senate this win

spectacle is presented of McCurdy being
forced to retain Graham .as night watch

ELECTION DAY IN THE STATE
Heavier Vote Is Being Polled Than
Was Expected by Campaign
Committee.
LINCOLN, Nov. 7. Good election weather
prevails over nearly all Nebraska, condi
tions being especially fine In the eastern
part of the' state. Less than an average
vote Is expected, but the balloting will bo
heavier than was looked for a week ago.
Election returns from voting precincts in
Nebraska show that the early voting was
heavier than campaign managers had ex
pected, owing to the bright skies and the
Inability of farmers to work In their muddy
cornfields. The republicans claim that more
straight republican ballots are being cast
than usual and that their plurality will be
larger proportionately than it was last year.
