LINCOLN, March 16. (Special. -George
L "Rouse, speaker of the house of represcn
tativea and candidate for the republican
nomination for governor, la doing Lincoln
today In the Interest of his candidacy. Mr.
Rnuse la making t systemntlc effort to se
cure aupport from every county In the state
nnd to take cure of, his- mall he has se
cured the services of a stenographer, whoso
duty It Is to keep track of the letters sent
out and the answers received. Bo far Mr.
Rouse said he felt much encouragement
and believed he would be able to Impress the
republicans of the state with the idea he I
Is the man to nominate.
"I have not outlined any platform upon
which to make my campaign," he Said, "but
I expect to stand upon the platform adopted
by the republican state convention, and If
elected I shall carry out that platform to
the letter. It has been charged that I
voted against the anti-pass bill In the house
.and I suppose before the campaign Is over
there will be a mighty effort mads to dis
credit me before the republicans of the
tate. I have served five terms In the house
and last year was speaker. Vpon my legls-
i.iv. !', n.rrntlv willing in
and be Judged.
"I did not vote against the anti-pass bill,
f)n the contrary It was killed In committee.
However, I believe the next legislature will
pass an anti-pass bill. This measure should
prohibit the use of free transportation for
any person, whether a state officer or not.
I believe the sentiment throughout the
state Is such that the legislature will give
to the people whatever relief they may de-
mand In the way of freight rato legislation,
and 1t would not surprise tne to see a law
enacted providing for a 2-cent passenger
rate.
"I am heartily In favor of a bill to re
Alstrlct the representative and senatorial
districts of the state. This was attempted
last year, but the measure met with de
feat.
"I believe these things will be set out In
the platform sdopted by the next republican
ptaie cunrenLifiii mi ii t mn flinimmiru nu
elected I shall certainly carry out that
platform to the letter.
"In our campaign ln Hall county In 19o4,
-hen I was elected to the legislature.
ncitner an ami-pass rneawurn nur a iipibui
rate measure entered into ine contest, ai
11. TJils year, however, the sentiment for
legislation along these lines Is. In my opin-
lon, general throughout the state, and la
lso deep seated. There Is no doubt ln my
mind that an anti-pass law will be enacted,
providing, of course. It Is not Introduced

Thmirh tie has been shown. Auditor I
- V j Bearle Is not yet satisfied. This morning he
received a wolf scalp attached to which was
card announcing that the scalp had been
taken from the head of a gray wolf killed
down ln Fillmore county. The man who
did the slaying wanted 15. which the last
legislature said should be paid a person I
for killing gray wolves. The scalp was
sent along with the voucher because the
auditor aome time ago went On record with
tha statement that no gray wolves were to
be found In the thickly populated districts
of tha state and the gray wolves which had
been killed were nothing mora nor less
than coyotes. Acting upon .his own Judg-
ment aa opposed, to the -vouchers filed he I
baa been cutting down the 5 claimed to I
i.25, which Is the fee paid for killing coy-
tea. Mr, Bearle after examining the gray
wolf scalp la convinced that It Is the scalp
Of a coy ota and therefore until, further in-
Vestlgatlon he will hold up the claim.
Recently a party from the eastern sec
tion of the' state sent In a voucher for a
gray wolf bounty and stated he had sent
tha hide with the head attached to a local
tannery for the purpose of having It made
Into a vug. . He asked the auditor to Visit
the tannery to verify the voucher. This
visit has not yet been made, but It will be
made shortly, at which time tha scalp re
ceived this morning will be compared with
the one to which the hide Is attached. In
tha meantime, however, neither of these
patties la entitled to one penny. of bounty
