labor Commissioner Has Difficulty

Manufacturers.
FOOD COMMISSIONER IS BUST
(Prom a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, Aug. 7. (Special.)-Labor
Commissioner Coffey Is experiencing con
siderable difficulty in carrying out the
provisions of the law which requires col
lection of statistics regarding the manu
facturing interests of the state. Other
states appear to be able to put out relia
ble Information regarding the amount of
manufacturing done, but Nebraska is far
behind In the work. As a consequence,
the state suffers from comparisons.
Manufacturers refuse to send in reports
to the labor commissioner. Dlanks have
been forwarded them, but such a large
number neglect to make any report that
the statistics received are of the negative
Datura because when compiled as awhole
t he showing is far inferior to the true
condition of manufacturing in the state,
and when compared with other states
put Nebbraaka In an unenviable condi
tion. The eommlMloner In connection with'
the blanks sent out attached a letter
urging the eaaportanoa of filing out the
blanks, but little attention appears to
have been given it?

Wdgett Candidate
For Governor Upon
Prohibition Plan
HASTINGS, Neb.. Aug. 7.-(Speclal Tel
egram.) Mayor WSHlam Madgett has
written the secretary of state for papers
to file as candidate for the republican
nomination for. governor. It was an
nounced today. His platform will be
state-wide prohibition. He says prohibi
tion will be the main issue next year
and ha does not want to beat around the
bush as to hi own attitude on the ques
tion. Clarence X Miles, who announced his
candidacy for the republican nomination
some days sgo, has promised to give
business administration If elected, but
has not committed himself on specific
plans. As to the liquor question, he
stands squarely for high license, which
was the principal issue on which he was
elected five times as mayor of Hastings.
Judge O. W. Tlbbets, former state sen
ator from Adams county, said today he
might enter the race for the democratic
nomination for governor. He has the
matter under advisement and promised a
definite statement within a week'. Promi
nent democratic leaders tried to Induce
him to enter the race In 1912, but he de
clined at that time, giving as hia reason
that he cor Id not afford to leave his law
Jiractlce here.

STATE TREASURER IS OBDURATE
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Auir. f. (SDeclaU Al
though the food commissioner has paid
into the corrers of the stato treasury
rCT.OM more than the expenses of the
office, he is unable to get It out again
for expenses of the department, because
Plate Treasurer Hall has an opinion of
his own and has decred that when the
money drops through the slot It Is as If
It were a bov's bank, which has no
opening to get the pennies out without
using a hammer. ..
The departments are using the hammer
ji Hirht. but do not seem to be able to
make much of an impression on the bank.
Beginning with September L the rood de
partment will have used up all Its ap
nmnHiLtlnn and as the legislature did not
provide any way for the department to
use its own funds, it will oe op to me
commissioner to discharge his force of In
Twurlnra and do away with Che work of
the food commission. Tbla will mean
that all the work of the last three years
4it tuv availed little. Notwithstand
ing the food commission has turned Into
the state treasury thousands or aouars
more than Its expenses, it oannot run un
der the ruling of the state treasurer.

and higher than a horse's back. The over
flows have deposited six Inches to two
feet of mud in the meadow, depending
on the distance from the stream. Tho
grass being so tall, the mud waa net
noticed until she had driven so far into
it that she became confused and lost her
way, and when about a quarter of a mile
from the road her horse mired In two
feet of soft mud. Fearing to leave the
horse and buggy. Miss Bode stayed there
all night and in the morning renewed her
effort to ret help by making an outcry.
but no help came and she grew desperate
at. the thought of staying there another
night, and in the afternoon took oft her
shoes and stockings and waded through
the mud to the road and followed that to
the residence of John Holt, where fche
was riven assistance and her horse taken
out. but the buggy could not be extricated

. THE HAGUE; Aug. 8. "Seven cents for

threatening shortage of paper is not re

paper supply will not last another three
months; By October 1 there will be no
paper left for printing purposes. Even
how, most ot the newspapers restrict
their editions as much as possible to save
their store of white paper. The price has
already gone up from 6 to T cents per
pound. But after October 1 no money

The demand for river transportation on
this line lias increased so -thst ' it now
seems necessary to increase the service
ns soon as possible. Last Thursday Cap
tain Stevens accompanied a delegstlon of
retail men and bankers of Decatur to
Sioux City, where they inspected tw-
large gasoline boats on the Missouri river.
The two boats, with laden barges, are on
their way down stream from Wllltstni,
N. D., where they have been usel In rail
road construction work by a party of
contractors. - The boats, however, were
found impracticable for the river service
here because they draw upwards of three
feet of water.
Though the offer on these bouts was de
clined, the Decatur business men are
planning to form a stock company to
finance the proposition of acquiring more
boats for this transportation. They will
write and telegraph over the country for
offers on more boats. In the mcantlKie
the investigation of the possibility of em
ploying steel barges will be made, with a
lew of putting several of them Into serv
ice next spring.
