POWER COMPANY
WINS SUIT FOR;
FEE PAID STATE
Commonwealth Company Re
turned $2,435 Charged for"
;t , Filing on "Water
Claims.
Lincoln, April 18. (Special. On
March 17, 1919, the Nebraska house
of representatives gave the Com
monwealth Power company author
ity to sue the state for the sum of
$2,435 fees the company had paid
the state as fees on its application
for water power privileges on the
Loup river.
The company claimed that a form
er state engineer had officially made
a survey of the river and had rep
resented the volume of water sub
ject to appropriation sufficient to
warrant a tiling on the claim. Mow
ever,, later it was discovered that an
other company had a prior right and
the Commonwealth company asked
for the return of its fees which was
denied by the state. Claims were
made to one or two legislatures for
the fees, but in each case the claim
wag denied. The last session looked
with more favor on the proposition
and gave the company the right to
test its rights in the courts.
The court holds in iavor .of. the
company and says "Money paid t
the state under sections 2427-8 of
the revised statutes of 1913 on an
application for water appropriation,
where application is dismissed
through no fault of applicant, may
under the facts shown be recovered
from the state.

"The contest at the preferential
primary in Nebraska next Tuesday
will be between California's favorite
son, Hiiram Johnson, and Nebras
ka's favorite son, John J. Pershing,"
said George N. Mecham, former
chief yeoman in the United States
navy and now a practicing lawyer in
this city. "Can. there be any ques
tion as how a loyal Nebraska re
publican should vote in this con
test?" asked Mr. Mecham. "I say,
let us make it unanimous for Per
shing." V
Mr. Mecham visited most of the
Latin-American countries when he
was in the navy and became intense
ly interested in the development of
our trade' relations with those coun
tries. He is one of the organizers
and charter members of the Omaha
Spanish club and reads, speaks and
writes' Spanish fluently.
"General Pershing is thoroughly
familiar with conditions, in Latin
America," said Mr. Mecham, "and
if elected president would take a
keen interest the development of
our trade relation's with those coun
tries. "It is not only the privilege, but
it is also the duty of every loyal,
patriotic Nebraskan," he continued,
"to vote for General Pershing, Ne
braska's own and only republican"
candidate for ' the presidency.

Government to Stop
Buying Liberty Bonds
In Open Market July 1
Wahsifigton, April 18. Govern
ment purchases of Liberty bonds in
the open market, except through
operation of the sinking fund, will
stop July 1, Secretary Houston an
nounced. A "beneficial effect" on
the bond market was expected to
result, he said. .Other officials said
the market in government securities
had already begun to right itself
and that bond quotations hereafter
might be expected to trend upward,
Mr. Houston explained that in
continuing the purchase of bonds
under the 5 per cent bond purchase
fund the government was increasing
its floating debt, while decreasing
its funded debt. He said that cur
rent requirements of the govern
ment were such that, if tke purchase
of bonds were to continue, the
treasury would have to issue more
certificates of indebtedness with
which to buy them.

Leader of Ohio G. O P,
Favors Gen. Pershing
answers were receive'd before the
activities of the preliminary cam
paign had started. It would not be
truthful to say that all replies were
unqualified in their support of Gen
eral Pershing, because already there
were men, as for instance in the
state of Illinois, who looked favor
ably on Govenor Lowden and other
candidates in other states, but in
no single instance was a letter re
ceived in reply which did not ad
mit the great' availability of Gener
al Pershing as a candidate on the
republican ticket.
Pershing Assures Victory.
"So much impressed was I with
the character of the replies re
ceived that 1 was then convinced
and I am now more firmly of the
opinion than ever, that the surest
way to secure a complete republi
can victory in November next,
would be by nominating Pershing as
the republican candidate for presi
dent. '
"Now wjth me this is not a matter
of hero worship. I know personally
and well every candidate now in the
field, have no word of disparament
of any of them. The candidate, who
and sincere support, but I feel that
republican success is of greater con
cern and consequence to this coun
try this year than it ever has been
since the election of Abraham Lin
coln, and it is my judgment that
General Pershing on the republican
ticket will get every available vote
in the coming contest and we shall
need them all to win.
Sympathetic With All.
"The farmer and the toiler, as well
as every other element or factor in
our citizenry would find in General
Pershing a president sympathetic
with their aspirations and ideals.
Every public expression the general
has made on topics touching their
interests indicates a deep sympathy
and a purpose to aid to the fullest
of his opportunity in every legiti
mate and rational plan to further
their fortunes and their interests.
To my mind, however, the greatest
purpose Pershing's nomination and
election would secure would be the
return to constitutional government,
representative government, equal
rights and equal opportunity and all
those things which make for real
Americanism. ,
"In my' judgment when the con
vention jeaches the stage where it
no longer deals with the enthusiasm
of the personal following of candi
dates and the thought and the mind
of its delegates consider the wisdom '
cf selecting the most available candi
date who is most certain to secure
victory and give the country an
American administration, they will,
in my opinion, select General Per
shing as that most available man."

The Cold That
Hangs On
This is No. 5 of a series of advertisements, prepared by a
competent physician, explaining how certain diseases which
attack the air passages such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whoop
ing Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold often leave
these organs in an inflamed, congested state, thus affording a
favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Viclc's Vapo
Rub may be of value in this condition.
A cold is simply an inflamma
tion of some part of the air pas-sages-throat,
larynx or bronchial
tubes just like a sore is an in
flammation of the skin. A long
continued cold means constant
inflammation and this constant
inflammation frequently weakens
the air passages so that they
become an easy point of attack
for invading germs of more serious
diseases. A"'cold that hangs on,"
therefore, is simply nature's "red
flag" indicating that there is
"trouble below," and this warning
should never be neglected.
Nightly applicationsof Vick's
VapoRub will aid nature to clear
up that inflammation. Because
Vicks acts locally by stimulation
thru the skin to draw out the
inflammation, attract the blood
away from the congested spots

and relieve the cough. In addi
tion, the medicinal ingredients
of Vicks are vaporized by the
body heat. . These vapors are
breathed in all night long, thus
bringing the medication to bear
directly upon the inflamed areas.
Vicks should be rubbed in over
the throat and chest until the
skin is red then spread on
thickly and covered with hot
flannel cloths. Leave the cloth
ing loose around the neck and the
bed clothes arranged in the form
of a funnel so the vapors arising
may be freely inhaled. If the
cough is annoying, swallow a
small bit of Vicks the size of a pea
