Lincoln, March 10.T-(Spec!al.)
jTKat the recent republican stati com
mittee at its meeting , last TuesJay
made an "awful" mistake in not iol
lowing the wishes of Nebraska demo
crats in calling a convention to rec
ommend a candidate for the repub
lican : nomination 1 f or the ' ; United
States, is evidenced by repeated at
tacks uoon the action of the commit
tee by local democrats and the local
democratic organ. .
For' many weeks republicans riad
been advised by the democratic -ygan
and by letters, from the outside pub

republican candidates already, ia (he

must be put in in order to win the

.A A Matter of Orders. ; v" v".
According to one of the comm ttee
men at the , meeting, the democrats
cannot understand why the repub
licans will not take orders. He paid
that the democrats are so used to tak
ing orders from the Mullen-Hitchcock
bosses that they are at a loss to l.r,cw
why ' republicans , get along so well
without He was of the opinion that
they were trying to camouflage their
own critical condition in the senatorial
fight by endeavoring to create a simi
lar condition in the republican Sena
torial situation.' , :x
' That the democrats will fape. the
hardest situation they have ever dealt
with in Nebraska, when the time
comes to select a democratic candi
date for the United States senate is
becoming more apparent evfcry day.';
'.-'." . Breach Unhealed. j
First of all the breach between the
Hitchcock . faction under . the leader
ship of Arthur Mullen and ot the
Bryan faction under the guardianship
of Brother Charlie Bryan has not
healed in any degree, notwithstanding
repeated efforts of the Mullen-Iiiich-cock-Corey
triumvirate to bring about
some sort of a compromise. In 'set
the situation is becoming such that
nothing short of a special intervention
of providence can keep the old demo
cratic. ship from being tossed in .the
most turbulent waters it has ever
sailed.- ' - ' - . '
Lieutenant-Governor Howard will
be a candidates Although he has not
yet filed, he will 'do soall in good
time. He ' will receive the backing
ot the-Bryanforces. Attorney-Ocn-eral
Reed has filed and is safely In
the political pond. "
. . Mr. Reed expects io: draw his
strength from the people irrespective
or fractional 'alignment, 'Who believe
his records as attorney-general en
titles him to consideration. Should
former Governor Morehead enter the
race, and he probably ': will, he1 will
have a strong. following, from, .the
lank and, file of the party. So far he
has the opposition of the. Mullen-
Hitchcock-Corev triumvirate, whom
it is claimed have double-cros,seF .theJ
rails Qty statesman and are look
ing around for some man .who can
win against Reed and Howard, and
also Morehead if he enters the race.
, " Neville in Reserve. -
Just now it is the opinion of those
who are ' watching the situation that
the Omaha ' triumvirate" is planning
to . wait until the last, moment and
then rush Governor Neville into the
- political trenches. as a candidate for
the senate In hope .that in the ex
citement of the battle he will be able
to go"'over the top" and win hands
down. . . '':.'' . - ,':,. : . ',. ' v , . ." '
But trouble ldoms for them once
: more. It is now- generally under
stood that .William' B. Price, whose
home is in 'Lincoln, but who is in
Omaha most of the time, is seriously
- considering entering the "race for the
democratic nomination for , senator
'This will complicate the situation, in
that Price vis jeither. a - Bryan
, nor a Hitchcock man. He went to
the St.JLouis national democratic con-
vention and earned much glory and
- a front page picture by opposing Mj.
Bryan and posing as' the man who
defeated him for delegate to the con
vention. .He is, a,sort of free lance
and may cut into the strength of all
of the other candidates to a greater
or less degree, price is well ac-

Attorney General Reed Asked
to Bring Suit to Reimburse
Money Taken From Guar-.
anty Fund. ,".
' -. (From Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, March 10. (Special. Tbe
State Banking board has asked Attor
ney General Reed to begin suit
again si all stock holders of the First
State Savings bank "at Superior ind
the Farmers' State., bank at Decatur,
to compell them as individuals to re
imburse the state guaranty fund for
money taken from it to pay depoi?ors
in these banks at the time they failed.
'Assets cf the Superior bank did not
return more than 30 per cent of the
money taken from the guaranty while
it is probable about 50 per cent oi.ly
can be expected from the assets of
the Decatur institution.".
Under the law a stockholder may
be assessed for twice the amount of
the ! face value of his shares. The
state will ask the receiver of the
Decatur bank to turn Over what
money is in his hands with the ex
ception of a sum sufficient to pay
judgment, which may be levied on
litigations now in court. D. D. Whit
comb, receiver, has $43,338 on hand
and the banking board is of the opin
ion that at least ot this ccuiu
be tttrn over without jeopardizing
legitimate claims of litigants.
Frank lams, "whose claim for il2,-
000 against the Decatur bank, wis re
jected' by the supreme court, w in
tervened in the receivership proceed
ings and is attempting in that way to
get his money. He had that amount
on deposit at the time of the failure,
but because the bank was paying
him 6 per cent, which was 1 per tent
more than 'the guaranty law allows,
the court held this constituted a loan
and not a deposit and could not be
paid out of the guaranty "fund,: and
that tarns must take his chancej with
creditors '' ' : '' '
In the case of the Superior bank
the district court of Nuckolls county
will.be asked to order Receiver C. W.
Harvey to sell what assets remaining,
close' up the bank's affairs and pay
the entire proceeds to the state board
so the money may be divided among
the banks which f contributed to the
guaranty fund assessment. His last
report shows $13,000 on hand. At the
time of the assessment $54,000 was
takerV from the fund while at Decitur
the sum was $7o,000. - . 1

Lutheran Preacher Declares
World Conflict Answers Words
of Cain: "Am I My
Brother's Keeper?"
"Am I my brother's keeper was
the text of Rev. S. de Freese s ser
mon yesterday morning at St, Mrks
English Lutheran church.
"These were the words of Cain,
he said. "Cain was a murderer tor
he had killed his brother, Abel. And
m uttering these words he proved
himself also a hypocrite and a liar.
Moreover, they were impertinent
words uttered to the almighty God.
God nad asked Lam where his
brother. Abel, was. And Cain had
the unparalleled audacity to answer
God with impertinence as well as with
a lie. His answer implies that God's
question was unjust and unfair and
and his answer was made in a po?r at
tempt to cover up his own crime and
to shirk the responsibility. v '
AH down through the ages this
question has rung. . Am I my broth
er's, keener? Why should I look out
tor the weitare ot anyone out my
self and those nearest to me? ;
- Duty of Mankind.
"The only way the true Christian
answers this question is :n ths, af
firmative. 1 am my brother's keeper.
You are your brother's keeper If
you see hun straying frorn the path
of right and rectitude it is your -duty
to set him right.' When he is in trou
ble tt is your duty to comfort and
help him. The great sacrifics by
almighty God of 'His only Son is an
example of what lie expects oc us.

doing good to others. .; ' '
