"THI KOMI Or QUALITY CXOTKSI"
(From a Staff Cot-respondent)
LINCOLN. Nov. I.-Ppecel Members
of the State Normal Board have returned
after their Inspection of the Wayne Stata
Normal school, and while no meeting' we
held and the question of buying It ha not
been gone Into, the board was rery fav
orably Impressed with the school building"
and camput and their condition. The old
building needs some repair, but the new
administration building. Dr. Ludden said.
Is In first clans condition, aa la the heating
plant and the cooling plant.
No one present of the local committee
knew bow many students there were In
the school, or how much personal property
such as chairs, desks and tables belonged
to the school, and. In fact, no one knew
Just how many rooms there are In the
large bufidlngs. This Information will be
compiled by those In charge of the school
and It will be submitted to the board at Its
meeting December J.
Now that the old norma board has been
declared constitutional and the new one
out of existence Interest in the location of
the new normal school has Increased. As
a matter of fact Alliance Is the only city
In the state that has complied with the
letter of the law In the matter of filing a
proposition for. the school, but th board
likely will stretch the law to the limit In
erder to give all the towns In the west end
- f the state a chance to get In on the
lidding, aa the suit In court naturally con
fused many of the towns. Representative
Harrington of Brown county met the board
as it returned from Wayne, and put in a
' big talk for Alnsworth. He is anxious for
the school to be located there. But until
the board hears from the attorney general
It is likely will tak no steps to locate th
school.
' Th Rock Island railroad has done a vary
healthy business In Nebraska during the

th two years is aa follows:

Unless a big bunch of corporations get
'busy and send In their occupation tax.
'together with the penalty for not paying
up before, they will be read out of ex
lsteoce after o'clock on the afternoon of
' November 30. The records of Walker
Smith, corporation clerk, show that be
tween 150 end 200 corporations have not
con piled " with the law. Unless they do
o by the date named above their fraa
chutes will be forfeited . and they -will- net
be permitted to do business In Nebraska.
It will then be necessary for them to file
thtlr articles of Incorporation anew and
pay,' the regular filing fee. Some of the
bieKest corporations In the state have not
complied with the law.
Copies of the statutes will not be sent
to members of ' the late legislature unless
they are ordered. This change In the usual
program by the secretary of state Is due
to the fact that he has not a sufficient
number of copies to supply the stats offi
cers, libraries of other slates and members
of the legislature. Members who do not
want tho statutes are requested by th
secretary not to ask for them.

The science of clothes making has advanced to the point
where you can find a "pretty good" Suit or Overcoat almost any
where. Men have been educating themselves in clothes values, too,
and "pretty good" garments will no longer do although, as much
as we regret to say it, lots of men buy "pretty good' garments under
the impression that ,they are getting "perfect" Suits and Overcoats
and the worst of it is they don't realize their mistake until it is too

SEWARD. Neb., Nov. 1. (Special.) As
a result of the narrow margin between
Charles E. Morefleld, republican, and Wil
liam Grots. democratic candidate for
county treasurer, at the last election, the
democratia county central committee was
called to meet here yesterday with other
democrats to tal of a possible recount of
votes. The unofflcclal returns gave Mr.
Morefleld a majority of twenty-one. but
tbe official canvass reduced this to four
teen. To recount the ballots the pro
ceedings must be started In the county
court, and the ballots would have to be
recounted In the presence of the county
Judge, who would decide how each ballot
should be counted. This would be Just
as likely to Increase Mr. Morefleld's
majority as to wipe It out. The demo
cratic county central committee decided
to permit Mr. Urots. the democrstio de
feated candidate to decide whether a
recount would be asked for.
Ex-Mayor Brown
of Lincoln May
Rival Dahlman
Friends of Shallenbereer Urging Him
to Be Candidate for Senator
. . in Bryan's Place.
' (From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN. Nov. -19. (Special.) Some
ot these bright, beautiful mornings Mayor
Dahlman Is going to wake up and find a
competitor In his race for the democratic
nomination for governor in the person of
former Mayor T. W- Brown of Lincoln. At
least that's the way it looks to those who
have been watching the antics of the
former executive of the capital city.
And about tha same time Judge Edgar
Howard Is going to wake up and find hi
pet senatorial candidate, W. H. Thomp
son, has competition In Governor Ash ton
C. Shallenberger.
Mayor Brown will not come out for gov
ernor unless the governor announces for
senator, and that Is what friends of the
former mayor are trying to get Qovernoi
Shallenberger to do.
Governor Shallenberger has been told by
soms of the biggest democrats In Ne
braska that he should run for the senati
regardless of Mr. Bryan's statements lth-a-string-to-lt
that he will not be a can
didate. Friends of both the governor and
Mayor Brown are of the opinion that if
the name of Bryan is filed as a candidate
at the last minute he will be forced to
decline to run or he will be defeated for
the nomination.
It has been urged upon Governor Shallen
beiger that hj should at once announce hit
candidacy, for the senate, prefacing the
announcement with the statement that he
would prefer to support Mr. Bryan, hut
that the latter must be taken at his word
and left out of the race. Should the gov
ernor do this his friends Insist Mr. Bryan
could not, with very good grace, ever per
mit his friends to run blm for the place.
As an argument to get the governor Into
the senatorial race It has been put up to
blm that if he Is defeated for governor it
will forever end him as a senatorial possi
bility, so If he desire ot take a shot at
It now Is the accepted time.
That Mayor Brown eould easily be per
suaded to get Into the race for governor
there la no doubt and that he and the
governor have discussed the posslbllltls
repeatedly there Is every evidence to be
lieve. There Is no mor frequnt visitor to
the office of the governor than the former
mayor. In fact, he calls almost dally and
he and the governor spend much time In
consultation. So If the governor announces
for senator the mayor will announce for
governor.
of fltl. 10 and expenses. In all 1181.70, said
to be due him for services as county com
missioner. The law allows a county com
missioner $3 per diem and mileage, and
the total amount must not exceed 1500 per
year.' The court found that Mr. Brown had
been paid his full allowance by law and
accordingly the case was dismissed at tha
cost of plaintiff.
