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.
Steve Maloney, Henry Dunn and John
Duhn, Omaha police officers, who were
sued by Mrs. Sadie Walker of this city
for damages in connection with alleged
false Imprisonment of the latter In Omaha
some time ago In connection with tha fa
mous McVey resort murder case, filed a
special appearance In the case In tha Lan
caster county district court yesterday, ob
jecting to the Jurisdiction of tho court be
cause of their residence in Douglas county.
Tha suit brought by Mrs. Walker against
the officers Is for 825,000 damages.

Howell Has Self
Pinched for the
Political Effect
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. 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."
But Melnhard Mcnssen, residing In
Merrick county, still tall, erect and of
specially strong physique, has that dis
tinction. 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.
Ths French wanted to keep It clear and
had range on it 'with artillery. The
Germans wanted to keep It blocked. They
already had undergone severs losses. 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.

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." POLITICAL, ADVERTISING.

BUSINESS MEN WHO ENDORSE
W. B. HOWARD
Republican Candidal for Concrasa Saoond District
To the Voters: Omaha, Neb.,1 June 27, 1914.'
I have known W. n. Howard for man years. When he was a candi
date for State Auditor, I asked my friends to vote for him, because I felt
sura that he would Rive the same painstaking thought and care to tbe ser
vice of the public which he applied to his own business. 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
