PIERCE. Neb., Jan. . (Special.) Not a
single republican of Pierce received an In
vitation to go down to Lincoln Thursday
and "Insurge." In fact, tittle. If any, stock
is taken In the so-called insurgents' sin
cerity by the members of the party here.
It does not taks much effort to harken
back to the presidential campaign of 1908,
when Lincoln and Lancascter county rolled
up a big majority for Bryan and assisted
Jn the defeat of Governor Sheldon, and
Judge Williams, for railway commissioner.

Pet Squirrel May
Have Caused Fire
This ii One Theory of Origin
of Blaze at Broken
Bow.
BROKEN BOW, Neb., Jan. JO (Special.)
Frank 8. Holmes, Omaha manager for the
TTeetern Adjustment and Inspection com
pany. Is In the city today adjusting the
losses on the burned court house. The
companies represented are: The Phoenix,
Hartford, London, Liverpool and Globe,
German-American, Home, Springfield,
North American and Fire Association of
Philadelphia. The insurance will probably
figure between $13,000 and $14,000. With the
exception of the ' register of deeds', the
vaults have all been opened and guards
placed over them until a temporary gen
eral vault can be constructed. Register of
Deeds Porter says he will ekep his vault
oloseil until that time.
The new offices In the Masonic Temple
are rapidly nearlng completion and wlU be
occupied some time this week.
Since the excitement of the fire has died
down all kinds of theories are now being
advanced" as to Its origin. Some think that
a pet squirrel carried matches between the
walls and Ignited them; others that a cigar
or match waa carelessly thrown Into some
waste In the south end of the building,
while one or two county officials and a
number of outsiders are working around
to thai opinion that it might have been
done on purpose. Revenge, on the part of
some old prisoner, may have been the cause,
but the general belief Is that If the fire
was of Incendiary origin the culprit resides
somewhere In the county. Sheriff Kennedy
has been compelled to take the county pris
oners to Grand Island for safe-keeping, as
the olty has no Jail of Its own.

RIVER THREATENS THE LAKE
Missouri la Fudging on the Shores
Up Florence Way.
UNCLE JOE REDMAN GIVES ALARM
Veteran Skipper Arouses Coaacllmea
to Action and Ther Think Onlr
Government Can Save
the Dir.
"We must hold back that river," sans
out Unole Jo Redman, the ancient skipper
of Carter lake, as he sailed into the office
of the city engineer. Uncle Joe was at the
city hall bright arid" early Wednesday
morning-, rounding up a rescue party.
When the. spirit moves this first arrival
among the Omaha old settlers can step
around as agile as the youngest man In the
north ward. It did not take him long to
corral Assistant City Engineer Campen
and Councilman Sheldon and Brucker. He
also wanted Councilman Davis, but since
the society editors announced his engage
ment and coming marriage Davis uses
only airships. Vehicles that travel oc the
earth do not look good to him.
Having got his rescue party onto the
fourth floor -oCtus city ball, but slightly
scattered, Unole Jo did not quit until he
had them all safely gathered Into the ele
vator, shot ddwnstalrs and piled Into a
wagon. . Then he had the driver head for
Florence lake, at the point where, the
treacherous old river Is burrowing through
the banks, quietly Ilk a rat, but dan
gerously like Its wont Is.
From long experience Skipper Redman
knows that It Is necessary to get up early
In the morning to defeat the tendency ot
the raging Missouri to "fudge" on th prop
erty along Its banks. "H it Is beginning
to break through', at that one spot thus
early In the season;" says Uncle Joe, "we
will see widespread destruction a little
later on."
May Destroy Carter Lake. '
After an Inspection of the spot where th
Missouri river Is threatening to make a
break through the bank, of Florence lake,
the city engineer's office Is fearful thst the
final outcome may be the practical de
struction of Carter lake. Councilman
Brucker, who was one of the Investigating
party on behalf of the city, believes the
only solution, to save Carter and Florence
lakes, Is for th government to change
the course of the river, from a point above
th pumping station at Florence.
"It Is a matter particularly for the con
sideration of, the Park board, the Illinois
Centrat'rallwsy, the county and the gov
ernmerjt, as I view It," said Mr. Brucker.
"The water company has, I understand,
already made preparations to meet this very
possible emergency by getting ready to ex
tend a pipe from the present Intake to
where the new channel of th river Is
likely to be after the expected raise in the
spring. If the thing evantuates according
to the-way It looks now, the Illinois Cen
tral railroad bridge may be left high and
dry, as well as the Florence pumping sta
tion. It appears to me the only real sal
vation for Carter lake and th territory
Immediately surrounding Is for th gov
ernment to take steps to change the chan
nel of the river. Otherwise we are bound
to see a break that will change th face
of the country out In that section. It Is
really a serious situation that confronts
us at that point." '

Dear Sir: . With refereifc to your adver

say that it comes within our classification
of political advertising, on which w re

of your copy, figures $M.
Anticipating your order, or Instructions

OMAHA, Jan. 1. 1910,-Edltor of Omaha
Bee, City. Dear Sir: As a mer matter of
Justice permit a statement of fact to ap
pear1 In your paper which concerns the ad
vertisement of the Anti-Saloon league per
taining to county option, refused for pub
lication by you.
On Thursday, January IS, at 11:45 a. m.,
I was In th office of th Omaha Bee to
make arrangements for the publication of
th county option advertisement. Thirty
minutes prior to that time I had called
th office by "phon and learned that the
charge for display advertisement was 98
cet.'s an Inch.
A Mr. Duncan, representing himself as
the display ad man, received my copy; and
of htm I inquired further concerning th
charge for samaI was told by him that
th price was M) cents per Inch. Further
hs assured m that th ad would appear
In th morning Issu ot Friday, January
Xt. "
During my absenc from the Anti-Saloon
league's office Thursday afternoon
Mr. Duncan tried, but fattad to get me by
telephone. Friday morning ' I called him
up and was told that the editorial action
on the advertisement was the rejection ot
the ad unless th words "the liquor trust"
were eliminated from th first line; and
that we pay foe. the ad In advance. I told
Mr. Duncan w would not eliminate th
words as demanded and that he need not
publish the advertisement.
On Saturday, January 16, I was In re
ceipt of a letter from Th Omaha Bee
saying that as the Anti-Saloon league's ad
Was political advertising, Th B charged
$1.40 an inch for such advertising In ad
vance. No answer was mad from this
offloe; th communication being sent to th
stat headquarters at Lincoln where the
advertisement originated.
"Honesty and candor at least dictate th
publication of this letter and you will con
firm my bellefia your possession of thes
traits by the appearano of th letter in the
columns of your paper. Sincerely yours,
J. M. LEIDT,

"H's no good. He gets drunk. I don't
want him any more. When 1 married him
he ws good, he didn't drink."
With this simple statement, Mrs. Marcus
Frame concluded her testimony against
her husband. He had been arrested for
drunkenness and abusing his family. -
"Sure you don't Want him anymore,"
asked Judge Crawford with his pen poised
over the docket. i
"No." , i '
"Well, It's thirty days for you, Mr.
Frame," answered the Judge, as he marked
down th sentence.
"In the meantime, If you want him
back you may call," said the judge to th
angryvwlfe.
John Wesley, full of elation and cocaine,
determined that he would not be arrested.
Officer Aughe took Wesley In after diffi
culties, In which th man of the hlstorla
nam tor away sundry portions of th
policeman's coat.
Wesley's rough behavior received th re
ward of thirty days In jail when Judg'
Crawford heard the facts. V
"What's your name?" demanded th
prosecutor.
"John Henry," replied th prisoner.
"John Henry what?"
"Just John Henry' insisted th fright
ened prisoner. . t
John Henry, It seems, had taken away a
coat which was th property of another

"John Henry, your nama Is Mud. Twenty-five

John Henry went to Jail. ,

H. C. by failed to explain satisfactorily
why he left the Her Grand hotel without

Mr. Dye's attempt to fade was thwarted
by th police. ...
Sixty days in the city jail will be his
penance. . . .
