Democrats in the Fifth district are becoming uneasy over the fight that is developing between Fred Ashton and R. D. Sutherland for the democratic nomination for congress and they are anxious to get a third man who might defeat them both. The man they have picked on to make the race is Colonel J. V. Furse, Secretary , to Governor Shullenberger. Several delega tions have been In to request the secre tary to permit the use of his name. In ad dition to this Mr. Furse has received let ters urging him to consent to be a candi date. So far Colonel Furse has Indicated a de sire to be left alone, right where he Is and his loyalty to the governor floes not permit him to enter tain seriously the Idea of run ning at this time, though the pressure is getting strong. Many democrats, how ever, from the Fifth district Insist that . It Is to the Interest of the party that ho an nounce his candidacy and thru his personal wishes In the matter should not stand In the way of doing a stunt for the party. Governors, nod Vice Presidents. Notwithstanding Congressman Latta has nominated him for ioe President and the governor enjoys Washington life, Governor Shallonberger this afternoon expressed himself as not In any sense being worried about having to remove from the state. Some of his callers this morning urged him emphatically to decline the nomination at the hands of the democratic national oonventloi, for they predict that In case he permits the miller, to iuu on, history may repeat Itself and he may find himself back on the farm. In tlve meartime if Mr. Bryan could be induced to sign a statement and give a bond that he would nut accept a nomina tion for the senate it Is a safe guess to say that tho governor would leave a clear field for Mayor Dahlman. Otherwise, his friends say the executive will try for his present Job. Railroad Hearing- at Hastings. Tho hearing of the complaint against the Burlington for not giving adequate train service between Red Cloud and Hastings will ba held at Hastings February 9.

Tha hearing on this application has been set for Febru ary 15 at Valley. In its petition tha company set out that it is trying to improve amd increase its service and that material costs much mora than it did when the company first began to operate. For that reason it ifnds that It is necessary if it keeps up a high cla service to increase the cost. I. amber Hearing: Postponed.

Democrats Can PersniyBe Tolpp. Senator Fred Volpp of TScrlbncr, who fought so manfully last winter to be known as the father of the banking bill, but who was pacified by having the committee agree to call it tha "Volpp-Wilson" bill, which agreement the committee failed to keep, is ready to be persuaded to be a candidate for the democratic nomination for state treasurer. To his friends here Mr. Volpp appeared as one very anxious to get Into the running, though for publication he felt certain that he was not now a candidate. Mr. Volpp was sure, however, that he Is for Mayor Dahlman for governor, notwith standing the office of the governor ap peared wU satisfied with what the senator said In there regarding his preference.

From the present outlook the people of Kearney will be treated with an excep tionally low price on Ice during the next summer. A local Ice company, dealing en tirely In natural ice, baa lowered the price to 25 cents per hundred pounds, and this has brought the artificial Ice plant's price down to 30 cents per hundred pounds. On account of the long cold season an Im mense harvest was gayiered off of Lake Kearney this winter. Two large ice houses on the lake were filled to the top, and whatever buildings that could be obtained were filled with natural Ice that rivals the artificial In clearness and quality, Whether the price will go lower when the dealers get to sparring for business remains to be seen, hut even at this rate the people will be paying IS cents per hundred pounds less than they have ever paid before.
