The state accountant says in his report
that the number of employes does not seem
to tie tfto large, as the patients in the

saya the permit purchases can be reduced
by closer estimating. During the last
three months goods were bought on per
mits to the amount, of 12.800. When per
mits are Issued to the commandant to buy
goods, no bids are received and there la
no competition between the merchants.
He , suggested to the Board of Purchase
and Supplies that more care be used in
checking over vouchers, and that permits
be secured before entailing noncontract In

Internal revenue collector has evidently
caused some uneasiness among those coa
ffresamen who voted for him, as letters
are now being receive", in the South Platte
country explaining the vote. Several let
ters have been exhibited in Lincoln sent
out to people of his district by Congress
man Hlnshaw. In one of these letters Mr.
Hlnshaw said he voted for Mr. Hammond
believing that Mr. Rose would be given
another posltlen. It waa his hope, he said.

the same time recognising that Rose was

Democratle. Fight On.
The- announcement of A. C. Shallemberger
a candidate for governor on the demo
cratic ticket fell with a dull thud In Lin
coln. George W. Bergn and a number of
other democrats were discussing It last
niaht at the Llndell hotol.
"That announcement coming at this time
means the fight Is qn right now," remarked
one In the crowd.
"You are right," chimed In a Serge man.
Beige said nothing, but nodded his head.
Just when Berge will make his announce
ment la not known to the public yet. but
some of his friends are urging him to say
he would be a candidate right off. Berge
will take issue with Shallenberger about
abolishing the railway commission, though
he will usk that the law be chartged.
The announcement of Bhallenberger la
taken here to mean that he will give W. H,
Thompson his support for delegate-at-laxge
to V.in national convention and in return
Thompaoo will support 81iallenbergef for
governor. Friends of Berge would like to
break' up the Bryan slate, but" are afraid
to make such a move, though they may
ask hira to change it so that Berge call
get some glory out of it to help him in the
campaign.
Mayor Brown and Dr. Hall appeared
shocked when they read that a dumocrat
had said they were at outa. Mayor Brown
aald there waa nothing to the story and
ho quoted Dr. Hall saying thJ same thing.
The mayor said aome time ago aonve one
ran to Dr. Hall with a story that he waa
opposed to the doctor, but both were good
friends now. The fusa waa straightened
out by the mayor enlisting for Hall for
national committeeman and Hall enlisting
for Brown for delegate-at-Iarge. It may
be possible that progressive democrats who
axe opposed to' both will not accept tha
deal as made and' will Insist in the demo
cratic convention In naming the national
committeeman without allowing tha dea) Jo
be made up in LJnooln. if friends of Berge
control the convention it is possible Mr
Bryan may be forced .to change his slats
to suit.

that the auditor's office merely becomes
machine to write warrants, though the
constitution provides the auditor shall In
vestigate all claims against the state treas
ury. The law enacted last winter making
the state treasurer ex officio treasurer of
the state university. Mr. Cook fears, takes
away from his office any authority it might
have had to look into university claims. He
may conclude, however, to refuse to Issue
warrants for claims not looked into by the
auditor and1 thus force the regents to ap
peal to the courts for a mandamus to com
pel him to act.
