board of the town of Staplehurst, on tho
Columbus branch of the Burlington,

mission today and made complaint
against the road for failure to supply
sufficient sidetrack facilities for the
handling of business in that ttnvn.
They complained that when tho road
moved tho depot some time ago It cut
down the amount of sidetrack so that
ther Is not room for the trade that
comes to the town which doslres to load

track be- extended and the stock yards
moved farther away.
They wero told by Chairman Clark ,
that If tho town board would declare the
stock yards a nuisance It would be easy
to have them moved from the present
site near tho main street to a place far
ther away.

tion was aimed directly at them and they

Congressman Stephens early declared
that ho would leave tho whole subject of
postmasters to postofflco primaries or to
duly constituted committees apolnted by
tl.o county or congressional committee of
tho Third district. As a result of these
broad nnd radical lines, Mr. Stephens has

Wo the undersigned, a committee of
three disinterested parties appointed by
Congressman Dan V. Stephens to recount
the ballots cast for postmaster In tho
primary election held at Norfolk 1-obru-ary
7, 1914, find that Andrew G. Nelson
received 3 votes and Carl Wilde re
ceived 418 volos. Wo found one voto for
Herman Winter In tho package of votes
that had been counted for Wilde, thus
reducing Wlldo's voto by ono and In
creasing Winter's voto by one. We also
found among the spoiled ballots ono bal
lot In which It was shown that the
voter clearly Intended to cast his ballot
for Nelson, ond two ballots that wore
clearly Intended for Fred W. Kocbcr.
Otherwise, the vote Is tho same as certi
