' Most ot the rwiroada are short df cart at prerent, although train has not started to move, but the situation Is not aerlous and tho railroads arc able to till most orders. Many complaint are heard from the scarcity of cars. An Interesting case came to notice from Harrison, Nob., ono of the most western towns In the etuto, on the Northwestern road. A petition was prepared and sent to Governor Mickey, signed by the resi dents of Harrison, saying the railroad re fused to furnlah cars for coal for the town. Tho railroads took exception to the state ' monts In tho petition and after sifting the mutter down, found there had been, for a long time, plenty of cars in that section of tho country and further Investigation from tho records of tho superintendent and the mines, which are on the line wort. ahowed no order had heen placed by the uValer for coal, the only ordur which was received being from a private individual and that was filled lmmedlutoly. The dealer has txiou deceiving tho wholo town Oil tho pretext That he could not get tho card. Conitldorahle coal has been found along the Northwestern lines In Wyoming and while no great mine has been developed whluli would pay to run railroad tracks to, ooal has been taken out In abundance. Many of the ranchers get all the coal they want by simply going Into their fields and loading It into their wagons. Considerable coal is being hauled to the railroad by means of. traction engines, which haul sev eral large wagons filled with coal. No Oplom ta Chamberlain's Coach Remedy. There Is not a particle of opium or other narcotic In Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and never has been since It was first offered to the public. It Is as safe a medicine for a child as for an adult. This remedy Is fa mous for its cures of colds and croup, and can always be depended upon. Better be careful than sorry. Consult Copley, Jeweler, 35 8. 16th. Get his prices. The condition of C. E. liodon of Sterling, a federal court Juror, was much Improved Frldny morning and the trial of the catile men gives promise of proceeding without Interruption. There exists, however, a teil ous question ns to the effect Juror BooVn's Illness. nilRht hnvc In the event he might later prove unable to continue with the trlnl. Well Informed lawyers on constitu tional law hold that a trial cannot proceed In a federal court without twelve Jurors, even though counsel might iagree to pro eeo,J with eleven Jurors. The proceeding of Friday morning were of the usual formal character, with J. C. Pettyjohn still on the atand. and Mated exclusively to tho Identification of tiling papers and the record of them on the Val entine lHnd offlee books. The examination of Mr. l'ettyjahn was eonrluded st noon and covered an Inquiry Irto thirty-eight entries, with thctr accompanying paners. This makes thus far. Including the nine books of the Valentino land offlee, 133 ex hibits numbered from 1 to 153 consecutively, us merely a stnrter for the trial. Mr. Tettyjohn will not be recalled by the government unless to Identify filing papers that may have been overlooked by the I government's attorneys. The cross-examination of Mr. Pettyjohn began at 1:43. p. m. Friday. Doable Dismissal Recalled. Tho appearance of J. C. Pettyjohn, for mer register at the Valentine land office, recalls the fact that he and Receiver A. 1j. Towlo were relieved from their posi tions because of the ugltatlan of the land luestlon in 1905 in the Valentine district. Tho offico -was closed upon the acceptance of the resignations of Pettyjohn and Towle and1 remained closed for three months, when Luke M. Bates was ap pointed registrar early In tho present year. Practically all of the alleged Illegal and fraudulent filings embraced In the thirty- eight entries thus far examined wrt mado during the administration of Pettyjohn and Towlc. and while these officers are not charged with complicity or collusion In any , of the fradudulent transactions, the fact that tho alleged fraudulent filings had been made under their administration of the office was deemed sufficient reason to demand their resignations. T. L. Heath, United States commissioner, took tho witness stand Friday afternoon, to be followed by A. L. Towle. To Avoid Ware Case Trap. It Is the apparent purpose of the govern- I mcnt to avoid tho narrow margin of falling j lpto a trap, as during the Ware trial, to have all of these filings come within the statute of limitations, so that the question of statu tory limit may not be Included In the ob jections should (he case go against the defendants. Regardlofs of the merits of the case pro or con, the fact Is apparent that the government has Its case well In hand, and has left nothing undone in the matter of technical and general evidence to suppoit Its contention. ; On the other hand the defense, as has been shown, has been equally diligent In procuring refuting testimony and In the preparation of its case. Possibly no case has . been brought to trial In the federal courts anywhere with more accurate pre liminary preparation. It Is a battle royal In fact and Is attracting the attention of eminent lawyers not alone from Nebraska but throughout tho entire cattle country. Scarcely any decision In land matters that la on record exists but what has been brought in reference and the fight will be point by point . and the trial will ge on record as a precedent for all future land trials. . :.
