METCALFE TO TAKE STUMP
Pledges His Efforts on Behalf of His
Late Opponent.
VILLI BOOST ON PLATFORM
Iryaa Men of Lincoln Take Steps
to Head Off Any Move Looking
to Rap at Grand Island
Convention.
(From a Start Correspondent)
LINCOLN, July lL-xSpectal.) Lieu
tenant J. H. Moorehead, democratic
landidate for governor, was In the city
yesterday and held a conference with
opponent, Richard L. Metcalfe, at the
primaries. Soon after the result of the
primaries was made known Mr. Metcalfe
hastened to write a letter to Mr. More-
head congratulating h'lm upon his noral
nation, and as one believing that the
"people should rule," he would accept
the will of the people and offered his
services to the successful candidate upon
the stump or in any ' other capacity he
migh ask.
While the two gentlemen had a very
pleasant seance together and tolked
over the general campaign, no definite
plans were made regarding the part Mr.
Metcalfe will take, except that it will
be a speech making campaign. They will
get together after the state convention
and perfect a plan which will be m
tually satisfactory.
Bryan Men OraranUe.
A meeting was called this noon at the
Lindell hotel which was participated in
by several democrats who resent any
kind of a move tending to result In "set
ting down on Bryan" at the Grand Island
convention. W. M. Morning was very
warm over the thought that any man for
even a moment would think of trying to
put the peerless leader to the bad when
he was the greatest democrat the country
, has today. It was understood that some
thing would be done at the meeting to
head off any plan that might come up
In the future detrimental to Mr. Bryan's
standing as the real factor of the party
in Nebraska, but the presence of several
who are known to have felt a little "sore"
at the stand taken by Mr. Bryan regard
ing Champ Clark prevented any definite
action being taken. It is probable that
another meeting will be called later and
care taken that no "forninsters" of Mr.
Bryan know about It until too late.
Filling a Vacancy.- , ,
Attorney General Martin has been called
upon to decide a case in Cedar county
wherein the county Judge of that county
died and the vacancy was filled by the
county , board County Attorney O'Oara
has asked th attorney general whether
the appointment holds for the full un
expired term or until the next general
election, and,, if the appointee holds over
only until the next general election, how
nominations are to be made for this po
sition. - The attorney general decides that
the appointment shall continue until the
next general election and at such time
as the person elected shall qualify. The
vacancy occurred after the primary elec
tlon, so no nomination could be made at
the primary. He also holds that the
party committee has the right to nomin
ate a candidate for office In a case of
this kind,: but that the nomination by a
convention would be preferable. ' '
WYMORE BUSINESS MEN TO
FIGHT 'PHONE RATE RAISE
WYMORE, Neb., July ll.-(Speclal.)-
The methods of the State Railway com
mission were severely criticised before
a mass meeting of citizens, assembled
last night to consider the local telephone
situation. The criticism is embodied In
a report brought In by a committee com
posed of Mayor J. A. Reullng, Dr. C. C.
Gafford, Judge E. B. Crawford, Super
visor M.' J. Moran and Sherman Taylor,
Following the reading of a newspaper
account that the commission had granted
the Lincoln Telephone and Telegraph
company - permission to operate 'In Wy
more under the Bell franchise and dis
continue the Independent service, which
means a toll rate to surrounding towns
and a raise In business telephone rates,
the report says.: "Wo who are parties
to this contract had no knowledge that
our rights In that contract were , on trial
before that body, we had no day In court
nor. any opportunity to present our side
of the case. We believe that It waa the
Intention of the act that created the
Nebraska State Board of Railway com'
missioners that It was their duty to
listen to the plea of the weak as well as
the strong. We ask the' people of the
state of Nebraska if they do not think
that the Nebraska State Board of Rail
way commissioners has not outlived the
purpose for which it was created. We
are all taxed to maintain this court and
before it we think that all. should have
equal rights to a hearing when their In
terests are at stake. We submit our
case."
The committee reported that a confer
ence . was held yesterday morning with
Lincoln company officials, and that they
would promise nothing In the way of
free service to neighboring towns, or to
maintain present New Home rates. A
motion carried that an Independent com.
pany be organized, plans to be left to a
committee of seven, headed by Dr. S. E.
Yoder. A resolution asking the mayor
and city council to vacate the Bell and
Gage County Independent franchises is
sued by the city and now owned by the
Lincoln Telephone and Telegraph com'
pany, and to order the Lincoln company
to remove all poles and lines of those
two companies from the streets and allies
of the city was adopted.

ALDRIGH BACK FROM TRIP
Finds Irrigated Begion of State One
of Utmost Promise.
SETTLERS ALIVE TO INTERESTS
Great Thins; Looked for from
Northwest Nebraska Dnrlaa- Next
Ten Years Railroad Slights
Commission.
(From a Staff Correspondent.) '
LINCOLN., July U.-(Special.)-Gov-
ernor Aldrich and his private secretary,
Mr. Fuller, returned this morning from
a trip by special train through the north
west and the Irrigation country. The
executive announced he would prepare a
written statement about his trtp tomor
row. He seemed much impressed with
the good the trip may have done in the
way of awakening the farmers through
out that section to a realization of their
responsibilities as far as their rights to
the use of water is concerned.
The governor said that crops looked
fine and that the country from North
Platte up was a beautiful Garden of
Eden. - He saw many fields of oats which
would go seventy bushels per acre and
other crops In comparison. "Sixteen years
ago," ' said the governor, "I waa up
through that country and It was nothing
but sage brush and sand; now it Is the
most beautiful portion of the state."
Edson Rich, who accompanied the gov
ernor on the trip, representing the Union
Paclfio railroad, made several addresses,
showing how important it was that the
country should be settled and how the
railway company would do its part along
that line. He said the revenue derived
from the shipments was not by any
means paying the expenses of keeping
up th service, but that they had confi
dence in the great future prosperity of
that portion of the state and with the
assistance of the people there the country
would develop rapidly.
"About the first thing those people do
up .there when they start to build a
town," said the governor, "is to build
a hall or an opera house in which public
meetings, can be held. In this matter
they have struck the right thing and are
far ahead of the older towns of the
ftate of the same size. . If I had the
time I could talk to you all day of the
great advantages of that irrigation coun
try and.'the great future it will have If
it , accepts and puts Into effect . those
things which it can have If it is a mind
to; I expect great things from up there
In the next ten years."
Two coaches were used on the special
and these were filled most of the time.
Among the number who spoke besides
the governor and Mr. Rich were Sena
tor Hoagland of North Platte and Judge
Grimes, side trips were made to differ
ent points which could not be reached
by rail. ,
Penny Is Improved.
- Assistant State Superintendent C. M.
Penney, who has been very ill for some
thing over a month, made his first ap
pearance at the state house yesterday.
Mr. Penny is still very weak and his
physician has recommended absolute
quiet until cooler , weather In the fall. It
Is probable that, he will go to some quiet
place in Minnesota and camp where the
air Is cool and where the. fishing is good.
No .Depot. Yet at Humphrey,
Attorney General Martin has been in
structed by the railway . commission to
ask the Northwestern Railroad company
why they have not followed the orders
of the .commission and built a nice new
depot at Humphrey as they were told
to do. Sometime In the far distant past
the commission notified the railway com
pany that they must build a new depot
at that town and have it completed be
fore the celebration of independence day,
hut as yet no action has been taken by
the company to erect the depot The
commission has put out the "get busy"
sign and if the railroad does not follow
directions there will be something doing
in Nebraska. -. ..
The hearing which was to have been
had before the State Board of Equaliza
tion in the Burlington, St. Joe & Grand
Island and the Minneapolis & Omaha
railroads will be postponed as Governor
Aldrich expects to be In Kansas on that
day. No date has beeK,set as yet as
to the exact date as the governor expects
to be gone several days.
The citizens of O'Dell have filed with
the railway commission a protest against
the consolidation of the two telephone
companies doing business In that town.
It Is understood that if the commission
upholds the consolidation that a new and
independent company will be organized.
Assistant Attorney - General Edgerton
has rendered an opinion that the practice
of chiropractic as well as Christian
science healing Is contrary to the medi
cal law of Nebraska unless the practi
tioners have a license from the State
Medical board. The opinion makes it
clear that it Is not because anyone prac
tices these particular schools of beating,
but that anyope practicing the art of
healing under any name whatever must
have a license from the state board.
The State Board of Irrigation, consist
ing of Governor Aldrich, Attorney Gen
eral Martin and Land Commissioner
Cowles will convene tomorrow to hear
the application of Charles T. Boggs for
water from the Loup river for the de
velopment of a power plant at Schuyler,
on the Platte river. . It is also probable
that the Babcock case may come up for
hearing if the parties are ready.

HOW ST. JOE HOLDS ITS
LEAD IN PENNANT RACE
There were two unusual happenings In
yesterday's game that puzzled some of
the fans and both came in the fifth In
ning. Crutcher had the bases full and
two down in the first half, with Middle
ton at bat and the call "three and two."
As he raised his arm the men on the
bases started to run. as they always do
In such cases, and Crutcher stepped from
the box, while the bewildered Jobbers
stood around and watched him walk over
to Craig, who was on second with dem
ons, and touch him out. Hughes claimed
a balk, but Umpire Flynn differed with
the fiery George. In reality it was a
trick of the old army game. It was all
set for Crutcher to make a bluff of start
ing to pitch. Reilly was to have covered
third, but did not do so, and Crutcher
did the rst best thing, touching Craig
out at second. The Jobbers simolv fall
for It. and although Manager Hughes pro
tested me game, u is aouotrui ll ne ever
hears a -word from O'Neill, as the ques
tion was on the umpire's decisions, which
are generally upheld by Prexy Tip.
Crutcher did not make a motion toward
the plate.
The other occurrence came In the last
half of the fifth. During the wrangle
which followed the trick pulled off on
Wichita, Pitcher Jackson was ordered
from the grounds. The Wichita players
held a consultation near their own bench
and Roxy Middleton and Tommy Mee
were the only members of the club on the
field when Umpire Flynn called nlav.
The Jobbers did not heed him and with
Watson standing ready to bat, and only
a third baseman and a centerflelder to
represent Wichita, Flynn called four balls
ana warned watson. Then the Jobbers
got next to themselves and scrambled to
their positions.

John Bull Wants to Suggest Changes
' in Canal Bill.
CONGRESS IS READY TO ACT
Provisions In Pending Meaanre that
Favor American Coastwise
ShippU Is Not Liked In
Germanyi
WASHINGTON. July U.-Oreat Brit
ain's request that the enactment of the
Panama canal admnlBtratlon bill be'held
in abeyance until Mr. Innes, the British
charge, can present a note In behalf of his
government confronts congress and the
State department . with an extraordinary
situation.
The request for delay has been com
municated to the senate lnteroceanlo can
als committee. It came from the summer
embassy at Kineo, Me., late yesterday
and was sent by Mitchell Innes, the
charge, acting for Ambassador Bryoe,
who is in New Zealand.
While the reasons for the request are
not stated, there is no doubt that the
British government is concerned In the
clause to grant free passage through the
canal to American vessels In coastwise
trade, and that' relating to those railroad
owned ships. Th Canadian railways are
deeply ooncerned in both and it Is thought
that some of the representations will be
made in their behalf.
Bill Now In Senate.
The canal bill Is now in the senate com
mittee, with prospect of being reported
and will then go to conference with the
house. Congressmen feel that If any leg
islation Is to be had it must be at this
session of congress. The exigencies which
havs arisen as the canal approaches com
pletion makes legislation necessary If a
permanent organisation Is to be set up
in the canal tone to the best advantage.
It was expected that members of both
houses were not agreeable to much delay
now.
Senator Brandgee has replied to the
State department that the legislation pro
posed is regarded . as extremely urgent
and the senate committee had planned to
report the canal bill to the full senate
some time next week. That reply has
been communclated by wire to Mr. Innes
and 'probabiy will have the effect to
hasten the delivery of the British note.
One of the provisions In the bill as It
FRECKLE-FACE
Hew Bemedy That Bemoves Preokles

Here's a chance. Miss Freckle-Face,
to try a new remedy for freckles with
the guarantee of a reliable dealer that
It will not cost you a penny unless it
removes the freckles, while if It does
give you a clear complexion the ex
pense is trifling.
Simply get an ounce of o thine double
strength, from Beaton Drug Company
and one night's treatment will show
how easy it is to rid yourself of the
homely freckles and get a beautiful
complexion.' Rarely Is more than one
ounce needed for the worst case.
Be sure to ask Beaton Drug Company
for the double strength, .ofhlne. as this
Is the only prescription sold under guar
antee of money back if It fails to re
move freckles.
Ask the man who owns one of these policies.

now stands' would make it Impossible for
Canadian railroad ship to pass through
the canal If engaged In coastwise trade.
Then the question of free tolls to cer
tain classes of American ships Involves
the old question of the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty. It is believed that the British
government will hold that ships of all
nations must be on an equal basis. The
opinion among many American states
men is that to grant free tolls to Ameri
can ships is not a violation of the terms
of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty.
