BERGE FIRES A BROADSIDE Effeet of Ills Latest Manifests Prnaanly Will Nat Re (or the Geoa ( Kannony Among the Democrats. (From a eXaf f Correspondent LINCOLN. Neb.. Aug. 16.-(Speclal.)-Most everybody who has been maintain ing political headquarters In IJncoln dur ing the primary campaign has closed the same or has practically done so. Sen ator Kemp, republican candidate for the nomination for governor, who has been having headquarters at the Llndell ho tel, has concluded the work of the cam paign, but will keep quarters open in charge of his atenoamrher until the close of the primary Tuesday. The sen ator expects to continue his w.-rg Mon day, though In what locality he has not yet derided, and will return to his home In Fullertoa Tuesday morning. The work carried on by Governor Morehead has practically ceased and Ms headquarters were closed Friday night Qeorge W. Berge will hold open quar ters, ss his campaign has been mostly carried on from his law offices here. Other candidates have not mads Lincoln their headquarters. Ararannltlon for Repanllraa. Just what effect the latest manifesto which Mr. Berge has fired at Governor Morehead will have on, the outcome of the primary la not known, but tt Is ths general opinion that he has furnished republicans with some pretty strong ammunition to fire at Morehead If he Is nominated and at the ssme time Mr. Berge has put himself In a position where he cannot consistently expect much help from the governor and his friends should the Unooin attorney get the nomination. But such la democratic harmony and It Is possible that the black eyes and bruised political bodies of the contestants may heal sufficiently before the election so, that the bruises may not be discernible to the naked eye. Hearing for 'Wilson. C. J. Wilson, the penitentiary guard who asserts he lost his Job because he refused to donate to the governor's cam paign fund, but according to Warden Fenton was discharged for selling shoes to a convict, contrary to prison rules, will have a hearing before the board of con trol. In a letter to Wilson the board Intimates that the whole deal was pulled off for political effect and It refuses to be a party to any such scheme. No date has been set for the hearing. Barker Very 111. H. J. Burkey, state house carpenter, an old veteran, well known all over the state, is very 111 at a hospital in Lincoln. Just what Is the cause of his illness la not known, but he has not been well for some time and a breakdown had been predicted by his close friends If he did not give up his work. He has continued to attend to his duties and only gave up when he was compelled to by hit physical condition. Officers Object to Jarlsalet Un.

Neb., Aug. 1 .-(Special 1 "A pretty smooth trlrk. If It works," was the announcement made by a Lincoln man this morning when he read in the papers of the arrest of It. B. Howell In Omaha yesterday for speaking on the street. "The democrats have been loath to admit that Senator Kemp would get the nomination as the republican candi date for governor, knowing, yes, and ad mitting among themselves, that he will be practically unbeatable, no matter who la nominated by them. They know that Howell with all his troubles will be easy for Morehead, and so In order to get sen timent for Howell they pull off the stunt of having him arrested In hopes that It will draw him enough sympathetic vote to defeat Kemp. "You may be right," replied another, "and your opinion strikes me as a good one, but I had It slsed up along another line. "I know Howell pretty well, and you have got to give It to him as a re sourceful anl tricky politician. I have seen him In trouble before and the way I hnve It sled up Howell had the stunt pulled off himself for no other reason than that It would holster up a losing fight In Douglas county and make hire some sympathy out In the state." These two opinions seem to prevail In Lincoln, although of course among How ell's friends they Insist that there was no frameup In the matter, but was sim ply an attempt to get Howell and pre vent his speaking. Whichever way It may be It has not caused much of a flurry in tho capital city and It will cut little figure In the voting here. Survivor of "Death Ride of Marslatour" Grand Island Man GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Aug. l.-(Ppo- clal.) There are many veterans of the war of 1S70 in Nebraska members of the Landwehr Vereln. who fought on the German side and are especially Interested In ths present war and familiar with the European national contentions. But there are said to be very few. If more than one, survivor of the "Death Rids of Marslatour."

It was forty-tour years ago to day that tns order was given to surround Metx. Baaolne tried to break through the German corps (Hanover and Brand enburg), which had orders at all haiards to keep possession of th highway In or der that the French could not get through.

The German Cavalry was ordered to charge and did so 1,2(10 men on regiment of uhlans and one of curasslers. This be came known as the Death Ride of Mars latour. Only about two-fifths of tlio 1,200 survived, but held the road. KILLED BY ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE OF SHOTGUN SYRACUSE. Neb., Aug. 16. (Special.)

Nebraska HOAGLAND EXPECTS RELIEF North Platte Man of Opinion the Government Will Release Water. OVER GROUND WITH EXPERT Project Knalaeer Vein Maya One Hundred Twenty Thnnannd lore Feet Woold Keep the Itltrr Killed. NORTH FUVTTK. Neb . Aug in -(Special.) Senator W. V. lloaRlnnd re turned today from Kearney, win re he and W. J. Scout of the Kearney ditch were In consultation with govnimcnl officials of the reclnmivtlon service. "We met for the purooso of seeln what could be done for the Irrigators of this section In the' way of obtaining Im mediate temporary relief," said Setintor lloagland. "We showed beyond a doubt that the government reclamation service had Impounded water In June from tho regular flow of the river which caused the river to become dry at Kearney In July. "The only defense made to this by the officers of the reclamation service was that the Irrigators who were payliiK the government Jn Scotts Bluffs county would object to the government turning the wa ter down and saving the people's crops enst of Bridgeport without paylnk' the government. Jn answer we replied that If the government persisted, that the con tracts were Illegal and would he can celled In the courts. "As to the equity of the question, we said, 'We think that to reply upon such a question In times of so urgent need for the excess water to which this project ra,n have no rlalm except for some bene ficial use, and there Is no beneficial uxe to which It can be applied by the gov ernment In so fsr ss the quantity stored is now concerned Is puerile and unsound. "Tha quantity stored in excess of any possible demand during the remaining part of this aeason can be determined by the project engineer in an hour' time. and such quantity should then be released In amount to meet the demands of the valley and distributed pro rata in accord ance with established priorities by the state engineer. "ProJect"Englneer Weiss, admitted that l.-O.OOO-aore feet of additional water to that now flowing In tho river would fur nish an ample flow to keep water In th, river and all of the ditches going for a period of two months. "This would leave in the reservoir at the end of this nvuson for next year more than i0,x acre-feet of water collected from last year's surplus. "I. D. O'Donne'l, supervisor of the reclamation service, refused to state postlvely what his report would be but when Senator Hoagland asked him if hs had anything to say as to his report that might influence our attitude towards pro curing relief, he answered that he would wire the department that night and that we would probably have relief before any thing could be done. We have been practically assured that our ditches will not be closed during the balance of this season. "The reclamation officials have prom ised to try and work out a plan during the coming winter which will furnish a permanent solution of the water problem on the Platte river and furnish plenty of water to all of the fanners of the valley. We believe that the visit of Mr. O'Donnell to the valley will result In Immediate temporary relief and In a jermanent solution of our water difficul ties."

His record speaks for itself. He has been absolutely fearless In the discharge of his duties, and has carefully guarded the people's interest. Only a few weeks ago on of my friends whom I urged to vote for him, expressed his satisfaction In the fact that as Auditor the affairs of the office had been so well admin istered. W. U. is now candidate or Congress, or rather, In the first Instance, for the nomination. If he gets the nomination, ha will make a strong canvas for votes. Well known, reliable and popular, I feel that as a vote getter he has few equals. If elected, I am sure he will give tha same time and thought to national matters as he has given to the affairs of our own state, and I am morally certain that no one will ever regret casting hta vote for him. I hope to see him nominated and elected. Respectfully, Robert CowelL We, the undersigned, heartily endorse tbe above: SOKl MIlLSa Waf. A. CTHBLISnlAX. B. ft. WIT.
