RAILROAD TIME TABLE CHANGES Hallway ('oninililiin Considers Com plaint Roads Do o Give ufflrlrnt otlrr llar(la-an Worried Ihfr nard Item. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN. Fr-b HI (Special. J Lieu tenant Governor Hopewell was In Lincoln to'tay on. hlii Imiiiip from iOxrelxlor Springs, where In- has been fur some days, though ha bb lil "not to et in running trim for governor." "I do not expect to be a candidate for governor," Bald Judge Hopewell. I have my private affairs to look after, and I have reached that sue In life where I woold not like to get out and make a fljrht for a nomination and then a campaign for election If nominated. "I appreciate the kind words that have been said to m about the matter, and I do not say that nmlT no circumstances would I be a candidate. But at this time 1 am not expecting- to be a candidate." Judge Hopewell believes the democrats will have considerable trouble over the liquor trouble brought about by the dec laration of Mr. Bryan for county option. "Ia seems to me." he said, "that Mr. Hi-yan cannot very well stop now that he has promulgated a platform, but that he must select a candidate to run on that platform. When he selects his candidate It appears that Muyor Pahlman will get the democratic nomination unless Mr. Hryan's candidate defeats both Oovornor Shallonberger and Mayor Dahlman. It Is difficult to forecast 'Just how such a three cornered flftht would come out. Mr. Bryan Is strong with the rank and file of the democratic party and It Is ,ery doubtful " If the leaders of the party co;M defeat In convention any proposition that he might propose." VUK to Soldiers' Home. Attorney General Thompson and Secre tary of State J 1 1 h k I il have returned from a visit to the Soldiers' home at Grand Island, where, according to Mr. Junkin, they found everything In very good shape. En route to the home they stopped at Central City and attended a banquet given by the Commercial club of that city. Time Table Changes. The railway commlHslon spent the after noon discussing informally the proposition of notification td the public of changes In time tables. All the railroads In the state were represented at the hearing. Tho railroad men said they desired to notify the public as soon as they them selves knew when chimges are to he madi-. but It sometimes happens that when a train in Iowa changes Its time that requires a change In the same system In Nebraska. It Is then usually too late to notify the people through the country press and the railroad docs tho best It can. It no tifies the agent ','at each station and he. In turn, posts Clio 'changes, not only . In the depot, but In the postofflce. In addi tion to that, the railroad men say thnt parties', who travel, usually call up the depot,- before starting, to get the exact time of the departure, of .trains. .It. was the oplrlui of tho railroad men that . very few people are complaining on Uls score. ffarLja'rlgiit of -the Northwestern k1 his road does not' publish Its time table In the country papers. Should a- change l9 ordered on Monday It frequently would he Impossible to get the changes to tho papers In time .-for their weekly publica tions and thus the public would be goinj by the old time table. Tho railroad men agreed that It was' to their Interest for the public to know when changes are made In the tima tables and they did all they could to keep the people posted, but they' could see no reason for an, order from the railway commission In the case. .

(From a Staff Corres(Kindfnt I LINCOLN. Feb. 21. J. W. Crabtree of the pern normal sehoM had a conference with Governor PhallenhcrK' r this after noon, am' at Its conclusion, when ask.'d for a statement referred questioners to the governor. Governor Shallenherjrer said Mr. Crab tree seemed willing to offer hi replrnatinn to the normal board, belnr satisfied with the expression of srntlment since his resig nation was demanded. , He said also: "Mr. Crabtree said he did not want o lie my hands if I desired to do anything In regard to the normal rorrd." When asked If the resignation of Mr Crnhtree would In any way efect his In tentions, If h" proposed to remove the board, the governor K.ild It would 'lope Crabtree to the school." The governor said, however, there is nothing before him at this time to bnse any action against the board and. therefore, he had nothing In contemplation now. Severs! of Mr. Crahtree's personal cham pions have propsed that he be a cnndldate for state superintendent, while others ace suggesting him for governor. That neither of these propositions will take root very seriously in the normal school principal. Is not believed, for . If he made the race for superintendent he would have to contest with Mr. Bishop, who stood by him on the board. If he ran for governor, he would have to fight Governor Phallenberger, who has nlrcndy lost sleep over his attempt to secure a democratic normal bofvrd, which would have taken care of Mr. Crab tree. Mr. Crabtree came to Lincoln especially to see the governor and left this after noon for Peru.
