Produce Resi'ltf HELP FOR TOE EX-CONVICTS asjaaajjasaaaasa, GoTtrnsr Dtoidu to Break Up f Tactic of Police of Arrestiie Them. PiCKED UP AS SOON AS OUT OF THE PEN Chief of Llnrola Police Insists He Will laminae rresent Custom .. Whether Governor I.Ikes it or ol. ,From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Oct. 20. (Special.) Governor Mickey Intends to Inaugurate a reform In the manner of the treatment of ex-convlets at the handj of the police, especially In Lincoln. It has been the custom when a prisoner gets out of the penitentiary for the police here to arrest him as soon as he Rets up In town and keep hint In Jail a clay or two and then release lilm when lie agrees to leave town. This mornlitK an ex-convlet named Alberts, who was re leased yesterday and who was urrested J when he stepped from the motor car and ! kept in Jail over night, called upon the governor for protection. " j 'l called up the chief of police," said the gpvernor, "and got very llttlo satis faction. He said the man had been ar rested with a convict named Hayes who was released at the same time and that he was released from Jail this morning while Hayes was kept in there. The police had no right to arrest this man. It was an outrage that he was arrested. The chief of police told me he was put In Jail to protect the citizen of Lincoln. When that prisoner was released from prison he had the right to protection under out laws and It Is the duty of the people, of every citizen, to help that convict to sonic thing better. Alberts told me the police said they would release hlni If he would go to Omaha. No one has a right to run ' thut man out of Lincoln as long as he doe ! not violate the law. He had settled his I Hrnr with the Hlnlp He hnri done Yvrona and paid the penalty. So far as the mute Is concerned his account Is balanced. NoWj If he Is made to go to Omaha the police there will arrest him. If he Is driven out of Omaha lie will bo arrested elsewhere. What chance has lie to become a law abiding cltlz'.-n? The Excise board of Lin coln should take some action In matters of' this kind and prevent the urrcst of these cx-convlcts on suspicion." Chief Cooper Is Tarl. Late this afternoon Governor Mickey and Dr. Martin called at the police statloa to express his opinion to Chief Cooper 01 the latter's'way of doing business for ar resting Alberts after he had left the state j house. The two men warmed up as the conversation progressed and the governor spoke his opinion of Cooper allowing the women to sell beer in the reservation dur ing the state fair. The chief retorted: "You'd better get after your own police board In Omaha and South Omaha. You made the rounds of those reservations and I haven't heard of anything dropping. You have authority over the police, of thosi cities, but you have none here. When you correct the evils of your own board It will be time enough to get busy here." The two convicts were later released upon their promising to leave town. Amendment to Revenue Law. Secretary Bennett of the Slate Board of Assessment is going to recommend to the state legislature a change In the secttoa of the revenue law providing the manner in which grain elevators arc assessed. Un der the terms of the section a system cf double taxation could be worked, provid ing the amount of grain on hand April 1 la taken as the amount of the assessment. Mr. Bennett has arbitrarily assessed grain men on tha average amount of capital Invested during the year and this has been upheld by the supreme court. Wit he Is ' not satisfied with- that arrangement and 1 will work nut s rww nljiii. Rv derillctinff the amount of grain on hand April 1, from the amount of capital Invested, he has fol lowed the spirit of the law, but before the legislature meets he expects to have i another pla.n worked out. ' Rock County to tirt Fine. ' C. M.

U has nil been arranged that he should plead guilty and contribute 1$S0, but at the last minute word came from Rock counSy that the violation had oc curred there and Mr. Crandall would be I expected to pay the money Into the Rock I county treasury whether he paid a fine SCALY ECZEMA ALL OVER BODY Eruptions Appeared on Chest, and Face and Neck Were All Broken Out Scales and Crusts Formed Iowa Lady Has Great Faith in Cuticura Remedies for Skin Diseases. ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE BY CUTICURA "I had an eruption appear on my cheat and body and extend upwards and downwards, bo that my neck and face were all broken out; also my anna and the lower limbe as far aa the knees. I at first thought it waa prickly heat. But soon scales or crusts formed where the breaking out was. Instead of going to a physician, 1 purchuoed a complete treatment of the Cuticura Remedies, in which I had great faith, and all waa satisfactory. A year or two later tha eruption appealed again, only a little lower; but bcforM it had time to spread I procured another supply of the Cuti euxa Remedies, and contmued their use until the cure was complete. It is now five years since the last attack, and have not seen any signs of a return. I have taken almut three bottles of the Cuticura, Resolvent, und do not know how much of the Sojp or Ointment , as 1 alwavs keep them with me; probably one half dozen of each. .

This man now lives In Dawson county, and h said in his letter: "I am ..king some Interest In the campaign. I j um supporting the democratic ticket, ex- cept Shallenhcrgcr. 1 want to sec Sheldon elected itovernur. I know Siialieuberaor well and have been acquainted with hlni in politics and in a business way for twenty-five years, and he is the biggest political fakir In Nebranka." Mr. Shallenberger's speech delivered at the Oliver theater last night has occa- j stoned considerable comment In Lincoln today and It Is the opinion of those who . , ., , . , ., . heard lilin. If he is delivering the same i speech all over the state, ho Is certainly conducting a campaign of misrepresenta tion. One who Is familiar with the sub Jects discussed by the demo-pop candidate said: "Mr. Shallenberger Is cither not familiar with the aubjeot he Is discussing or he Is deliberately misrepresenting th? facts. In quoting the I'nlted Slates supreme court opinion on- the maximum freight rate law he did not loll that the supremo court of the state had declared unconstitutional the a r-..i.-.l rr.. I .11 . . State Board of Transportation, which the ! United States supreme court hld was the I proper body to enforce that law. "He said the floating debt of the state Is Increasing, when he knows, or should know, it is being decreased, and Just re cently State Treasurer Mortensen issued an offlrial statement showing how much it had been decreased. He argued at length that the state needed no new laws, which is in direct conflict with the democratic plat form. He denounced the Btate Board of Assessment for the assessment of the property of the state, but he passed over the increase made by republican boards. In the assessment of railroad property. He told good stories and Ills speech was pleas ing, but there waa au absence of facts." Dipping; of Cattle.

Receptloa at Federal Dalldlnat. A public reception was held at the new federal building from 7.30 to 11 o'clock to night and thousands of Lincoln people and all the visitors In town attended.

Insurance Expert Townsend of Chicago addressed the Commercial club this after noon on insurance rates, after inspecting the municipal water plant. Mr. Townsend advisee the city to spend fMO.uuO In per fecting the fire department and Increasing the water pressure by buying steamers. He then made the startling statement that according to the losses compiled by the tire department the Insurance companies have lost In Lincoln 15 per cent per annum for the last four years. The total premiums paid during those years amounted to iot'iO.iUo. while the lire losses amounted to I10,2. This added to the 40 per cent to pay ex penses of doing the business occasioned the loss. Mayor Brown explained the loss by fire was occasioned mostly 'by four fires, at which, no matter how eBMcnt, the Are dipartmcnl could do nothing. Mayor Brown claimed a general Insurance ag w had told linn the premiums in four years here amounted to t40.00O. To this state ment O. W. Palm took exceptions by say ing under the law an agent had to swear Just how much his premiums amounted to and If the statement was true then con siderable money was hid from the asseascre.

The second part of his Reminiscences, beginning in Magazine for November deals with the epochal events in American history, culminating in that magnificent description of Lincoln which has not been equaled by any writer, not even John Hay. ' Schurz saw Lincoln as he was in his relation to the government, to the war and to his friends. He writes without fear or favor. He saw the Battle . of Gettysburg from a point of vantage and has con tributed the greatest description of this battle that has yet been written. This history, which is now being printed in McClure's Magazine, will be read in the school books of future generations. Begin your subscription to McClure's Magazine with this great November number, so as to learn the new light which Carl Schurz throws upon such names as Douglas, Lincoln, Seward, Grant, Stanton, Sherman. 10 cents or $1.00 a year All news-stands.
