discontinued altogether If they cannot be
pulled off in secret session in the future.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Aug. l.-(8pedal Politic
seem to be raising hob with the meetings
of the State Board of Assessment, which
was supposed to have been In evasion dur
ing the last week.
First the delay in getting out the levy
waa caused by the failure of certain
counties to get in their valuation reporta
Now that these are In the board Is un
able to meet because all member are hot
present
Last Saturday, a week ago representa
tive of the railroad were her to meet
with' the hoard and cover the ground
necesnary In making up the ratlrcad
assessments, but Governor Morehead was
absent, fines that time demand have
been coming In to the board from the
counties asking why the board does not
meet and make the levies so that the
counties can make their estimate and
startouton the new levy. Many of them
are behind in the payment of vouchers
and cannot do business until the state
board make the levy and certifies the
same to the different counties.
Another meeting has been colled for
Monday, but .there Is no telling whether
the full board will be present and It will
take two week of hard work by tWb
board to get things in shape to make the
levies. Auditor Howard has been making
ncampalgn for the Second district nomi
nation, but ha been on hand to meet
with the board whenever a meeting has
been called. Whether the board will be
able to get together at that time la not
known a the governor haa aires d ad
vertised a speaking tour for that date,
but may conclude to cancel it In order
to meet with the board.
State Auditor Howard haa been very
anxious to get the board together for his
home county of Douglas haa exhausted
Its 1913 levy and cannot pay a warrant
until the atate board meets and certifies
the state levy for Douglas county, and
today tried to reach the governor with a
telegraph mesnage calling his attention to
the meeting Monday, but by the middle
of the afternoon had received no answer.

Internal Revenue

The production, and presumably the

creased thl year, according to tlprures
given out at the office of E. W. North,
acting collector of internal revenue.
The demon rum 1 on the run in the
CornTrusker state.
Some t,892H barrel less were brewed in
the state of Nebraska during July of 1914
than the corresponding month last year,
and as a result It 1 presumed that the
consumption of beer In the state and it
tributary territory have likely diminished
in the same degree.
A a result the collection at the office
of the oollcctor of Internal revenue for
the state have diminished 83,392. 60, In spite
of the fact that the Income tax and the
corporation tax have been Increased by

boes," blew Into Omaha Saturday after
noon at 3 o'clock, nnd after applying a
raiior and a lr of snap to certa'n prts
of his epidermis, blew out at 8 o'clock
bound for Chicago, where he well ureslde
at the hobo convention from Augunt 3 to
10 In the Windy City . Duvls couldn't lln
ger In Omaha, as he will be needed In
Chicago Monday morning brhrht and enrly
and, as he never carries railroad trans
portation, he has to ride the night train?
on his Journeys.
Davis la the international president of
the hobe and the hlnh mogul of the
Hoboes of America, an order of some 400,
000 'bo. Pav's, bo It understood. H a
hobo, not a tramp nor a bum. According
to Davis, a hobo la willing to work, a
tramp won't work and a bum couldn't
work If he wanted to.
Davis came Into Omaha from Denver,
where he has been attending the miners'
cmventlon. While there he secured sev
eral -square mealn, nnd when he arrived
in Omaha he couldn't be detected from an
ordinary law-abiding clllsen. ll Is com

arrived In Ienver after a couple of
months In Mexico, where he visited Vera

turbulent points.

Javls Is a Cincinnati boy and he make
visits to his old home frequently. He
speak largely in Ihe vernacular of the
hobo, but he also possesses an extensive
vocabulary of excellent diction Hnd l.e has
acquired a worldly knowledge of practical
affairs ttiat would do Justice to a banker
or a statesman.
Davis is very much Interested In his or
der of hoboes. There are now forty-four
locals In the hobo union. They work only
for the good of the country and they
never encourage anyone to become a
member of their order. In fact they dl
courage It. In the last three yesra the
union haa secured the liberty of 8,000 per
sons from Jails in this country, incar
cerated on vagrancy charges. In the last
year 3,000 of this number secured their
liberty through the union. Kunnway
boys who drift out on the road are as
slnted to return to their homes nnd the
union Is always ready to do a Rood deed
for the country.
Against Vaaraney Laws,
At the convention in Chicago Davis will
use his influence to pass resolutions
against the vagrancy jws of this coun
try. Davis holds these laws are arbitrary
and that a telegram at the expense of
the city to the home of the alleged vug
would be cheaper In the long run than
expense of sixty or ninety days In Jail.
He will also urge that hoboes be allowed,
to vote at national elections. There in
no desire to vote at local elections, but
Davis holds It proper that knights of the
road be permitted to vote for the presl
dencv.
To Ilestrlct Immlaratloa.
In addition resolutions will be passed
advocating the restriction of immigra
tion for at least a period of five yearn.
Davis declares that because railroad and
all big corporations employ foreign Im
migrant at low wage scales it is diffi
cult for good Americans to secure jobs.
That is why, he says, there are 2,000,000
hoboes In the United States. Davit) de

SIMPLE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLACKHEADS
There is one simple, safe and sure
way that never fail to get rid of black
heads and that Is to dissolve them.
To do this get. about two ounces of
plain powdered neroxln from any drug
store sprinkle a little on a hot, wet
uponge rub over the blackheads briskly
wiLh the parts and you will be ui
prlned how the blackheads have disap
peared Big blackheaOH. little bloca
heads. no matter where they are. simply
dissolve and disappear. leaving the parts
without any murk whatever. Blackheads
are simply a mixture of dust and dirt
and secretions from tho body that form
in the pores of the skin. Pinching and
squeezing only cause Irritation, makJT
large pores and do not get them out
after they become hard. The powdered
neroxln and the water simply dissolve
the blackhead so thsy wash right out,
leaving the porea free and clean and in
their natural condition. Anyone trou
bled with theae unalghtly blemlshert
should rertainlv try this simple method.

ORCHARD & WILHELM CO.
Large Lump, Medium Lump
or Mo,1 Nut at, per ton, $6.50
$G.50 that's the present summer price on "Zeig
ler" coal and it buys the Large Lump, Medium
Lump, or No. 1 Nut, the sizes most users demand.
A price concession on a coal like "Zeigler" is a
worth while concession, too, for you get at one and
the same time, a coal that is sootlcss, clinkerlcss, and
almost smokeless. As far as heat units are con
cerned you won't find a hotter coal on earth than
this same "Zeigler." It's wann weather now, 'tis
true, but the memory of cold days is still fresh. Buy
coal NOW and save.
We will also quote you tummer price
on Scranton Anthracite, Petroleum
Coke and Capitol Semi-Anthracite.
