REPORT OF FORMER GOVERNMENTSERVANT II Bays Roosevelt Has Been Deceived Int Relieving the Reservation Contained Wooded Sections. A former attache of the government service who, for obvious reasons, requests thai his name be not published, recently returned from the North Platte forest re serve country In Thomas county, said Fri day morning at the federal building: . "I have traversed the entire length of the North Platte forest reserve, have crossed It at Intervals In the Interest of settlers, snd am In a position to say there Is no timber whatever on that reservation, the only exception being a few laolawd trees, ordinarily bo elder about water tanks, and one or two trees set out years ago about ranch houses. There is not any natural timber In the country. This tract of over 100,000 acres was declared a forest reserve by proclamation of the president dsted March 10. 190s, on the basis that the president had been Informed that' 'the reservation was covered In part with tim ber.' . "The settlers In that locslity were sur prised that such a statement had been mad to the president, when the reverse was true. My Impression Is that the vast area of land was badly wanted by the cattlemen In order that they might lease It for graslng purposes, and I understand that ntarly every acre of the reserve Is under lease. Representations have un doubtedly been made to the president that there waa abundant timber on these lands. In the meanwhile efforts sr being made by these same parties to "tiave parts of McPhereon, Grant and Hooker counties de clared forest reserves, when. In fact, there Is no timber on these lands, scarcely a plum thicket. The scheme appears to be to have these lands segregated from public entry In order that the cattlemen may lease them under the forest reservation laws and thus keep homesteaders out. Settlers are going Into the country now and are being told that these lands are about to be made forest reserves and can not be settled upon. Since the csttlemen have boen compelled to remove their fences they are now working the forest reserve lease schema. . "With the Dismal River forest reserve It la different, as there is considerable timber along the Dismal river, which would bring that section within the pale of the forest reservation laws." CUSTER COUNTY FOR CURRIE Will Stand by Its Favorite Son for Senator. Says James Whitehead. Captain James Whitehead, formerly reg ister of the land office at Broken Bow, Is a guest at the Arcade. "Everybody up our way Is for Currie for United Slates senator," said Mr. White head. "We will hold our county conven tion Saturday and probably will Instruct the delegation for him without serious opposi tion. Everbody up there, as far as I know. Is also in favor of the state convention nominating the senator, and Is opposed to Inviting any more deadlocks by re ferring the senatorial selection to the legislature." Judge. Burke of Imperial was an Omuha visitor Friday. "There Is a large Rosewater sentiment In Chase county, but I think we will e'ect a delegation for Miles for governor and try nof to Instruct for any one for United States senator." said the Judge. On conditions out west he said: "The crops of Chase county never looked bet- MALL GOES TO SEE RICHARDS Attorney for Indioted Cattleman Visits Germany on Legal Business. , . i CLIENT NOW SUBJECT OF KAISER'S NATION Will Make that His Future Home and Therefore Wishes to Con suit with Lawyer About Matters Here. R. S. Hall, attorney for Bartlett Rich ards and W. G. Comstock. whose de parture for Europe was announced a few days ago, is now said to have gone over the ocean not so much in search for health, with which he Is already richly blessed, as to consult with Mr. Richards, who, with Comstock, is under Indictment on the charge of conspiracy to defraud the United States out of titles to public lands. Mr. Richards Is in Germany, was thers when the last federal grand Jury indicted him, lias remained there since, so far as anyone hero pretends to Know, aim is ter than they do now.

It Is stated that a caucus of the Douglas county delegation to the democratic stat convention will be held next Friday to frame up the sentiment of the bunch re garding gubernatorial candidacies and other matters and to decide upon who shall bt backed as a local candidate for railroad commissioner. Two candidates already nave snown up, one being Benjamin H ards renounced his American citizenship and is now a subject of the emperor of Germany, which was made necessary through his marrying a German wile. It Is likely that a peculiar question will arise over the extradition of Mr. Richards, should he feel disposed to take advantagu of his German citizenship, as the often with which he la charged la not extradi table. It Is thought that Mr. Hall's visit to Europe may have something to do wltn the untangling of the dilemma. names to Conjure With. For years the names of Richards and Comstock have been conjured with In cattle matters In Nebraska and the west. They were once convicted In connection with Hayden, an Insurance man.

Their Instruction at the camp will begin with drlls by the Infantry and artillery, under the direction of the com manding officers of the regular service regiments of the various arms, to be fol lowed by lectures.

WATCHES Frenxer, lsth and Dodge 8ta With seven months of the year gone, only IU.000, or undor one-third ths whole amount set aside for the purpose, remains In the city street repairing department, the fund from which all betterments to unpaved streets must come. The expenditure of this fund la In the hands or the street commissioner, June 19, or about the time Commissioner Flytm took hold, a credit of $:n,26S remained In the fund out of ths total appropriation available of Hi, 000. August 3 only $11,005 was on hand, showing that Mr. Flynn has succeeded In disbursing about ll'i.O-O, or about one-third of the whole fund, in something like a month and a half. ITaturally, it was, expected democrats, so long kept from the pie counter, would Us ravenous, but expenditures at this rate were hardly thought of. It has been the talk for rime weks that the street com missioner had an abnormally large force at work, but there was no Idea that the revenues were being tapped to the extent revealed by Inspection of the comptroller's books. It has been the practice of the preced ing stieet commissioner, Joe Hummel, to hushand the yearly appropriation and try to n.ake it last throughout the year. Had he remained In office he planned this yea. to cut all the weed in the city and d'j all the grading and repairing necessary wlthcut applying to the cojncll for an other dollar. Commissioner Flr.r. already ha. put up a plea f -r several thcusind dollars to cut weeds, but the council could see no way to producn the money and turned down the rest. How the commis sioner proposes to worry through five months with only 111,000 Is a matter that the new council ncr anyone else clearly un derstands The ordinances require the street com missioner to make monthly reports to the city engineer showing the expenditures In his department for all purpoxes, number of men and teams employed and such other Information as required for the keeping of a complete record. Nothing of the kind has been done by Flynn, and the little matter of the report has been neglected In the scat of spending $10,000 in a month and a half. FOR I I' ii AVf; ! f ' f .
