Assessment wai filed with the secretary of
the board today and ahowa the road did a
bualneaa amounting to only $37,561,664.46
during the year. Thla la an Increase of
something over $4,000,000 over the year be
fore. After deducting- all expense, which
ineludea the taxes paid in Nebraska, the
road cornea out with the email aum of (it,
(M.3M.S7 to ahow for Ita year's work. Thla
la an Increase of more than 12,000,000 over
, the year before.
The road aJeo filed a atatement to ahow
what It earned in Nebraska. The follow
ing explanation la attached to thla atate
ment: '' 1 The eamfnge here hown Include all earn
Inga on both local and Interstate traffic, the
grvaa earnings on local freight and passen
ger traffic are about 17.2 per cent of the
total groaa earnings on all auch traffic In,
through and over the atate. The net e am
ine ahown are found by deducting ex
, pensea of operation and taxes from axons

Politicians Are Satisfied.
While there la general satisfaction
throughout the state house over the work
of the state committee last night, there
la especial rejoicing In some quarters of
the city the hotel quarters. One Lincoln
paper last night aaid It would cost Lin
coln tHbusanda of dollars to lose the con
vention, and thla had a very depressing
effect on one hotel man who operatea
the hostelry In which the headquartera
la located. His rejoicing thla morning la
unbounded.
In the matter of the date of the con
vention, the endorsement of ft candidate
for the senate to be In the call and the
recommendation regarding the Instruc
tion of delegatea on the matter of the
railway commission amendment to the
constitution seems to have met with the
general approval of all the Lancaster pol
iticians. Borne of the one-time eo-called machine
men down here wanted the endorsement
' of a senatorial candidate left out of the
call, now that Lancaster has no candl
data for that place, but tbey expressed
themselves as being well aatlafled with
the call as adopted, and whatever griev
ance they may have will com out at the
atate convention.
Naturally moat of the state officers
wanted the convention held In Lincoln,
because they live here and will not 'have
to be away from home at convention time.
The date also aeema to aatlafy all the
candidates here, though state officers had
previously aald they would be aatlafled with
whatever the committee did.'
The official call may not be issued for
some time yet, as there la no great hurry
for this to be put out. All of the commit'
tee members left town during the early
hours of the day or just as quick as they
could get tralna back home. Faddy Miles
was her this morning and waa about
the last to leave, getting out In time to
avoid getting mixed up In the meeting of
Pollard's congressional committee tonight.
In the meantime there has been no new
candidates sprung for the senate or for
governor during Jhe last twenty-four
hours by the Lancaster statesmen. '
After the Automobile Men.
Secretary of State Galuaha la In receipt
of Information that the county attorneys
of Douglas and Iancaater countlea are per
mlttlng owners of automobllea to anort
around over the atreeta of Omaha and
Lincoln which have not been registered
under the, provisions of the automobile law
enacted by the last legislature. In Lincoln
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
Tried Different Physicians tnd
All Kinds of Ointments Could
Walk Onfy With Crutches-Ohio
Man Says i
"CUTICURA REMEDIES
THE BEST ON EARTH"
"In tba year 1809 tho side of mjf
tight foot waa cut off from tha little
. $ down to tha heel, and the physician
who had charge of ma
was trying to sew up
tha aide of my foot,
but with no success.
When ha found out
that wouldn't work,
ha began trying to
heal tha wound with
ail kinds of ointment.
. until at last my whole
foot and way up
above nir calf waa
nothing but proud
flesh. 1 suffered un
told agonies for four years, and tried
different physicians ana all kindaof oint
ments. I could walk only with crutches.
It is aixtam months ago since I began
using Cuticura Moap and Ointment for
my limb and foot. The first two
months tha Cutioura Remedies did not
seem to work, but 1 kept on using them
both- In two weeks afterwards f saw a
change in my limb. Then I began using
Cutioura Soap and Ointment often dur
ing tha day and kept it up for seven
months, when my limb was healed up
just tha same as if 1 never had trouble.
"It is eight months now since I
stopped using Cuticura Remedies, tha
best on God a earth. I am working
at tha present 1 day, after five years
of suffering. Tha cost of Cuticura
Ointment and Soap waa only 6;
but tba doctors' bills vera mora lika
$400. You ran publish my name and
refer any ona to write to ma about
Cuticura Remeaiea. I will answer all
letters if postage is enclosed. John M.
Lloyd, 718 S. Arch Ave., Alliance, Ohio,

COSVESTIO CALL IS DELAYED
First District Committee Unable to
Reach an Agreement.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April . (Special.) The con
gressional committee of the First district
met and adjourned tonight without call
ing a convention or a primary to meet
again at the call of the chairman. Friends
and opponents of Pollard waged ft fierce
fight all afternoon for and against the
primary with the result the committee was
unable to come to an agreement. In ex
ecutive session the matter was threshed
over, but no vote waa taken.
During the afternoon Pollard had about
concluded to accept a convention, but later
he became suspicious of the manifestations
of friendship on the part of the opponents
of the primary and his friends on the com
mittee held for a nomination by direct
vote.
It was reported that Judge Holmes would
withdraw If Pollard accepted the conven
tion, but the congressman had no assur
ances that other candidates will not come
out. Should he get a primary and have
no opposition he would have to pay the
total cost, so he Is in something of a
dilemma, hence the adjournment without
action. The Otoe county committee today
decided to leave the matter of a primary
to the next county convention.
CONTEST FOR CHIEF OF FIREMEN
Mark Mortensen Re-elected at Fre
mont on Third Ballot.
FREMONT, Neb., April , (Special.)
The annual meeting of the Fremont Fire
department waa held at the district court
room last evening. On account of there
being ft number of candidates for chief
there was a large attendance. Chief Mor
tensen reported only eighteen fires during
the year. Total loss, 18,213.06. Insurance
paid, $6,887.48; number of active firemen,
171 The election of officers resulted' as
follows: President, J. C. Cleland; vice
president, W. R. Wilson. There were four
active candidates for chief and Mark Mor
tensen waa re-elected on the third ballot.
The annual state firemen's tournament Is
to be held here this year and the matter
of fixing the date waa left with tha board
of control. Inasmuch as there Is consid
erable talk of an elaborate celebration of
tha semi-centennial of the founding of the
city, which will occur on September t,
next, it seemed tha sentiment of tha meet
ing that tha tournament be held at tha
same time. As tha first settlers located
here August' 23. though tha town was not
laid out until September t, the latter data
was looked upon with mora favor.
Parker Held to District Court.
HUMBOLDT, Neb., April .-(SpcciaL-Walter
Parker, tha Individual who at
tempted to clean out the city Wednesday
evening, waa arraigned In the court of
Justice John H. Smith this morning upon
four separata complaints drawn by County
Attorney James, and waived examination
on each count and waa committed to the
county jail by the magistrate upon con
fessing his Inability to give the 11,200 bond
required. The strongest case against
Parker will be tha one where he la
charged with biting and maiming Len
Manning, the latter Buffering a deep
wound on the cheek from Parker'a teeth,
while ona thumb waa almost severed
by the same means. For this offense the
county attorney Is confident he can have
Parker placed behind the bars of the
penitentiary. Manning, as well aa the
other victims of Parker's assaults, are re
covering from the effects of thefr expe
riences, although both the James boy and
Johnson were considered in aerloua condi
tion for a time. The latter'a Injury waa
about the eyea, and for a time It was
feared the eight of one might be lost.

Ask your doctor if when
he orders a patient to drink
lots of pure milk he advises
the addition of a large
quantity of whiskey. He'll
tell you "no" very emphati
cally. Yet there are people
who, when ordered to get
Scott's Emulsion, will accept
gome wine, cordial or extract
of cod liver oil and think it is
the same thing or better. If
you want and need cod liver
oil in its best, purest and
most easily digested form, get
Scott's Emulsion. If you
want whiskey, that's another
matter, but don't look for the
same results. ,
