PETITION F0R6ERING FILED
Twenty-Seven Men Want Him to
Make Race as Republican.
IN THE FIRST FOR CONGRESS
Tom Smith of York Stronitlr Con
Iderlnir Filing for Governor in
Memorr of Ills Trouble vrllh
Governor Morehead.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, June 19. (Spccial.)-A peti
tion was received by the secretary of
state this morning signed by twenty
seven Plattsmouth cltl p ns, asking that
the name of Matthem Goring of that city
be placed upon the primary ballot as a
candidate for the republican nomination
for ocngress. Mr. Qerlns will have five
days In which to notify the secretary of
state that he will acce.t. Mr. Gerlng has
been a democrat most of his life, but It
Is claimed that In 1900 he refused to sup
port the democratic ticket. He was a can
didate for the. democratic nomination for
congress In this district at that time and
was defeated by James Manahan, now
representing Minnesota In the lower
house.
Movlnjr Gnnrd to lovru.
An Interesting rumor has It that Tom
Smith of York will enter the race for
the democratic nomination for governor.
Smith was talked of for governor two
years ago, but for some reason did not
enter. This will complicate more than
ever the democratic situation, as It Is
well known that Smith and Governor
Morehead are not the best of political
friends, owing to the turning down of the
former by the latter for the appointment
of oil Inspector a year ago. At that
time , Smith talked very loud and said
things which Indicated that there might
be a time coming when some things
would be remembered.
Colored Aneln t Ion Formed,
General Hall is busy these days figur
ing the cheapest and best way to get
the Nebraska guard to Fort Dodgo in
Iowa for the state encampment and bring
them home again. While the national
government pays about $10,(00 of the ex
pense, the state has to pay a certain
percentage and on account of the Inef
ficiency of the appropriation It takes
pretty close figuring to keep on the right
side of the ledger.

The Negro Women's Christian assocla
' tlon of Omaha has filed articles of In
corporation with the secretary of state.
The object of the association la to pro

DEADWOOD, B. D., June 19. (Special.)
Women swept th day In the most In
teresting school election held In Dead,
wood in years. Mrs. Itose Southmaydo,
the first woman who had attempted to
become a member of the school board,
was opposed by C. H. Henderson, a well
known business man, whose friends made
a vigorous campaign. This aroused tho
women voters of tho city and they
turned out In force, nearly three-fourths
as many women voting as men, and the
first time In Deadwood that any consid
erable number had gone to the polls.
Mrs. Southmayde was elected by a ma
jority of 345. All the principal cities In
the Black Hills now have women mem

AUTOMOBILE GAS IS SURE
DEATH TO PRAIRIE DOGS
HEMINGFORD, Neb., June 19. (Spe
cial.) Tho latest and It appears most ef
fective way to get rid of prairie dogs has
been discovered and applied by Joel Shel
don, living east of town. It Is to run
an automobile Into a field or pasture In
fested with pralrlo dogs and attach a
piece of hose to thexhaust pipe and
put tho hose In the hole, filling tho hole
with, dirt. Running the engine two min
utes to each hole kills all the dogs and
no second treatment is ever needed. It
Is said that a field treated In this way
smells of the poisonous gases for hours
after the treatment. It Is reasonably
cheap and save a great deal of valuable
pasture land for stock.
