on the slate were In the last acsslon of
the legislature, Mockett having- been a
member of thsej t!06 senate.
The Anti-saloon league has endorsed no
democratic slste, but Intenrls to make Ita
fight solely In the ranka of the republican
arty. Should It be successful at tbe pri
mary, then the .leaders of the league may
make overtures to the democratic candi
dates. The action of; the league In making
I's slste has mixed "up affairs here and
the outcome Is difficult predict. C. O.
WheJon, who Is a candidate, refused to
come out for cosily 'option and so waa left
off of the slate.
That the Antl-Raloon league Is playing
polities prejty strong Is evidenced by the
f act tiiat tbe prohibitionists have no ticket
in the field In this county. J. L. Claflln.

S. ,W. Btirnham, chairman of the rrpub
llran county committee, is a candidate for
senator, and he also Is .left off of the

but In the city, and the race for senator Is
expected to be, a hot one.

Colonel John M. Devine and Colonel John
G. Maher had a good sice bluff called at
the Llndell last night, to the amusement
of a good slied crowd. The two were en
lerlaining the audience with wild stories
about the big majority- Bryan Is to get

"Well, air," chimed in King, an Injur
rnce man. . who lives in Lexington and
travels over -the state, "I believe I can
name twenty democrats in Lexington who
are going -to vote for. Taft. I find Taft
rentiment strong In O.cad, In Sidney and
in other towns out In the western part of
the state."
"Will any of those men bet on Taft?'
interrupted Colonel Maher. "Give me their
names. I'll show you they art just bluf
fing."
"fljre they will bet," answered King.
Maher grabbed a pencil, jerked an en
rclope out of his pocket and got ready
M write down the names.
Hit action didn't fetus King. He began
o give names, snd In a short time Maher
iHd his envelope .full. Then another
raveling man jumped In when King
topped t get his breath.

LINCOLN. Aug. 26. (Bpeclal.)-The Btate
Board of Equalisation decided today to
leave the assessments of the Douglas
county banks just as they are fixed by the
county asseasor. It waa thought that be
cause of the practice of the banks In de
ducting I per cent from the value of their
loar-a for bad paper that the loana were
not given a sufficiently high valuation, but
It was finally derided that the Douglas
county banks are assessed upon a greater
per cant of their actual value than any
other banks In the state.
The banks of Dodge county were also
saved a higher assessment for similar rea
sons.

BENKET.MAN. Neb., Aug. 21-(Bpec(al)
A daring attempt to commit highway
roblery was perpetrated on the main streev
of Benkelman laat night, about t:X o'clock,
when an unknown person crept up behind
Jerry O'Brien and murderously assailed
him with a heavy stone, striking him on thu
back of the head. Th blow stunned
O Brien. and the miscreant followed th.
first attack with another In the face, whldi
knocked his victim senaeless. For soma
reason the footpad did not complete hlri
work of robbery, undoubtedly being fright
ened by approaching pedeatrtana, and left
his victim lying In the gutter.
The night 'was dark and stormy and
O'Brien was not seen lying .helpless by a
number of persons who passed by him
Finally he recovered consciousness and
sought aid, and a search was made for the
highwayman on an lndiatlnct description
given of his assailant. A tramp barber
who has been In the city for several day
was arrested on suspicion, but proved his
Innocence. The clew given by O'Brien waa
that the footpad waa a heavily built man
and wore a dark slouch hat, but he could
give no further Information. O'Brien was
known to have been In the habit of carry
ing a large pocket book a few minute be
fore the assault and at the time he waa
struck had only a few dollars on his person.
