of his stand during the republican state

maligned htm because ho had not Jumped

A prominent republican of the Fifth ron
grcerional district has been making In
quiries regarding Rinegde William, the
treacherous republican candidate for rail
way commissioner, and tlie attitude of re
publicans toward him. From a number of
republican to whom he talked he learned
that Williams will be scratched vigorously,
and no man's republicanism will be ques
tioned who vote for Oeorge Horst Instead
of the. sell-out candidate. This man not
only stopped in Lincoln, but he visited
Omaha and talked with people who knew
Williams personally, and from them be
learned that he was not to be trusted,
and wilt report accordingly to the repub
licans of his district. Williams Is proving
a very serious handicap to the state com
mittee officials, and If the committee is
making any speaking dates for him the
matter 1 being kept rather quiet. Williams
tags other candidates In some Instances,
but reports indicate that Williams hurts
the other candidate with whom he ap
pears. (lianre to Be r Ileleaate.

stance it Is a fsrmer who wants someone
to help him husk his corn. Rivers was
pent tip for three years for ' breaking into
a neighbor's house and stealing a pair of
overalls and Hs told the governor bo
doubted very much If the colored man U
guilty. His time would have expired next
March. Sass said Rivers had been a faith
ful helper for a number of years and In
the evenings be had taught his children
their lessons and the whole Bass family
thought much of him. Not only because ,
Rivers In a good man, Pass said, but lie- j
cause he needs someone to help blin husk
corn, he wanted to get him paroled.
' Applications have been pouring Into the
labor bureau for farm hands to help get
in the corn crop, hut so far the labor
bureau has not been able to even begin to
supply the demand. At this tlni there la
not a single pplicatlnn on file In this de
partment for a place, while the applications
for farm helpers are almost countless. Mr.
Bush said he had looked all around Omaha
and failed to get the men needed and
other states adjoining are in the same fix
as Nebraska. At this time the department
Is hearing from the county assessors re
garding the yield of the corn crop and,
while not enough reports have been re
ceived to make an estimate. th Indica
tions are the yield per acre will be larger
than a year ago.

The International Improvement company
will not be allowed to do business In Ne
braska under Its present articles of Incor
poration. Ktate Treasurer Mortenen, who
is a member of the State Banking hoard,
which passes on these matters, requested
Secretary Royce today to notify the offi
cial of the company they could do no bus
iness under the Nebraska law. This com
pany agrees to build houses and homes for
people who want them and are willing to
conform to Its rules and regulations. By
paying the company $1 on the hundred per
month the home builder is eligible to bor
row enough money to build a home and
then he pays the debt at the sime rate,
completing the Job at the end of 1j0
months.
Furniture for Asylum.
Kudge A Gueniel, which dim has sold
the state about tlio.oriO worth of supplies,
such as furniture and dry goods, during
the last two years, captured the contract
to outfit the new wing at the Norfolk asy
lum yesterday. With the exception of Nor
rls Brown, all the members of the Board
of Purchase and Supplies and Superin
tendent Young visited the various Lincoln
furniture stores and secured prices. The
above firm offered the goods at the lowest
ftgares, the total bill amounting to some
ll.pte. No bids were advertised for, as It
Is said by the board members to be almost
Impossible to get bids on furniture through
advertising. Whether any of the Norfolk
firms were called upon to make prices,
and thus save freight from Lincoln, Is not
of record and neither Is It of record that
any except Lincoln stores were visited.
Both Governor Mickey and Treasurer Mor
tensen are of the opinion the state got a
good bargain and that the. goods were
bought at extremely low figures.
