'Whether Mr. Hitchcock of Omaha hired Frank Harrison, one of tha Lincoln prohi bition leaders to help htm In hfs fight to remain congressman from the Second dla srlct Is still unsettled, though the circum stantial evidence" has been strengthened by the statement of the late La Follette manager that Hitchcock not only sent him word he wanTefl to see him, but actually went out to the Harrison home to do the aeelng. The pair had two conferences one at the Llndell hotel and one at the Harrison house. ' In a letter published In hla mouthpiece this morning the La Fol lette manager told that the Omaha editor had come to Lincoln to see him. The "cir cumstantial evidence" that the Omaha editor wanted to hire the Lincoln politi cian, former railroad lobbyist. Is further corroborated by the fact that not many years ago Mr. Hitchcock wanted to hire him to assist In landing a republican In a good Job, notwithstanding the fact the democrats had a candidate for the same Job. Bergo Loadlag TJa. George Washington Berge la fixing to cut loose. Not right now, but Just as soon as national polTTffs Is crowded off the front page. He was at the office of the stste auditor today looking Into the reports of the department and carting out Informa tion upon which to base that coming out speech announced some weeks ago. Mr. Berge thinks the republicans should have nominated Governor Cummins of Iowa for vice president though he expressed no Lincoln this morning with a reason for every one of the expenses he has Incurred as . such officer. The large telephone bill charged up to the secretary he explained by saying that whenever any of the mem bers of the board call htm Over the tele phone the calls are always reversed; that the large number of calls to Dr. Brash are due partly to calls Brash has had reversed. Dr. Brash, he says, can reach a number of physicians or members of the "board over the Independent telephone, and he In turn transmits the messages to Schward and the whole charge Is 'made agalnat him, as he Is the onlymember of the secretaries authorised to spend money. The call to a physician at Excelslon Springs, he said, wss a rrtatter of the utmost Importance, In which the honor of the state was at stake. A young man who had been granted a license by the State Board of Nebraska waa turned down by the Missouri state board, or was about to " be turned down. Dr. Schward said the matter was referred to him and he at once called up and served notice on the Missouri board that If a Nebraska license wss turned down, the reciprocal relations now existing between the two states would be severed.

Neb., June (Speclnl Tele gram.) Because forty-seven voters marked ballots for councilman with the words "V. 8. Rohrer for mayor." or in a manner 0 similar Import, at the municipal election last April. Judge Ragan. as acting countv judge, thia afternoon decided In favor of the contestant In the case of E. L. Gauv reau against C. L Van Patton, who has been serving aa councilman since election. By this decision the council Is changed from a tie to a majority in favor of high license. Owing to 'an amendment in the charter the election was called only for councllmen, the position being taken that according to the law as amended no election for mayor could be held this year. U. S. Rohrer Is president of the Civic federation and In this capacity he led the prohibition fight. On election day word was passed around among the faithful to write on the ballots a vote for Rohrer and this was on the theory that he could be sanated.' The elec tion of Van Patton was contested on the ground that the writing was a mark of Identification and' that the ballots were therefore void. The Civic federation attor neys, appearing for the - contaaiee, con tended that the statute- prohibiting the marking of ballots except as according to legal instructions was directory and not mandatory. Judge Ragan held the atatute mandatory and a writ of ouster against Van Patton waa issued. Mr. Gauvreau was then sworn in as councilman. It la expected that . applications for liquor licenses will be considered by the council at an early session.
