Rushnell's Frien, A movement is being engineered by sev- eral business men of this city which has as {ts object the retention of H. M. Bush- nell as postmaster of Lincoln. Mr. Bush- nell's term will expire about February 15 and he s making an active fight for re- appointment. He does not hope for the recommendation of the Nebraska congres- sional delegation, as Mr. Sizer's;name bas already been presented to the president, but he insists that he is entitled to a second term if the congreseman from this district s entitled to a second and a third term. Mr. Burkett is pow serving his second term fn congress and it is understood that he intends to make a canvass for re- nomination. Mr. Bushnell will make all of his efforts directly with the president. Mr. Sizér confidently expects his appoint- ment by the president, but will not retire from the office of state oll inspector until it is determived whather he is to get the postmastership. Candidates for the posi- tion he now holds are springlog up every- where. Among them s one who was men- tioned for the appointment before Mr. Sizer wap named, and he is again in the field with a strong following. This is E. J. Hayes of this city, but formerly of Gage county.

According to the plans and specifications this will give 3,000 electrical horsepower. The total cost of construction and equipment will be approx- imately $185,000.
