Mayme Cleaver Position of Grand the Chiet of Hemor of Order. | (From a Staff Correspondent.) | LINCOLN, April (8pecial.)~The city campalgn is warming up the point where the advocates of no license are hold- ing nightly meetings upon th streets while the advocates of the 63 o'clock closing law appear to be conducting a quiet campalgn, with the evident hope thal the State Journal will the town from prohibition. The Journal blows hot prohibition when there is no campaign on in Lincoln and looks through different glasses when there s, and when it car rles three columns of notices of appiica tions for liquor licenses, as it doing now. Previous to the opening of the campalign the Journal, with a great flourish of trum- pets, announced that longer would it permit its columns to be polluted with an advertisement from a liquor dealer. Then its adherents in various churches met and passed resolutions endorsing the high and | noble stand taken by the paper.

Latky and Mayme Cleaver over the position of grand chief of honor of the Nebraska De- gree of Honpr, Anclent Order of United Workmen, appears to have been settled in favor of Mrs. Cleaver by the dismisspl | Mrs. Latky's suit in district court. When Mrs. Latky moved for the dismissal of the sult Thursday morning, which she insti- | tuted to oust Mrs. Cleaver and have her- self declared grand chief of horor, her ac- tion was generally construed as a throwing up of the sponge on her part. Mrs. Latky held the position of grand chlef for many vears and was leader of the faction that controlled the affairs of | the Nebraska grand lodge during that time. i_u the annual meeting of the lodge last | spring the contest between the two factions | was 80 close that it was only after sev- | eral ballots that Mrs. Cleaver was declared | elected by a majority of ome vote. The | election was contested by Mrs. Latky on | the ground that the vote cast by Dr. J. C | Mosshart, former grand medical examiner, was unlawful. She claimed that Dr. Moss- save is seem to as the Malone the 6:30 legislation | hart had no right to vote and that without | | that vote Mrs. Cleaver was not elected and | the plaintiff as incumbent was entitled to | hold over.

LINCOLN, Neb., April 29.—(Special.)— County Assessor Shriver of Douglas county, accompanied by County Commis- sioner Fred Bruning, came to Lincoln this morning and delivered to the State Board of Assessment the valuation of the terminal properties of the varlous railroads in Douglas county.

Mr. Bryan's advocacy of a general law to prevent the issuance of a government license in dry territory has created some talk around here regarding the effect on Mr. Bryan as a member of the democratic party, Some are of the opinion that it will mean an intense rivalry between Mr Bryan and Richard L. Metcalfe, notwith- standing Mr. Metcalfe Is the associate ed- ftor of Mr. Bryan's Commoner. It has even been suggested that Mr. Bryan has laid the groundwork for his senatorial cam- palgn by his statement, even though he would have to put the “sting of ingrati- tude” into Metcalfe now to become a can- didate. During the legislature Mr. Bryan was called upon, not once but numerous times, to help out the advocates of a eounty op- | tion law and to assist in the enactment of other temperance measures. But to all | appeals for_help he turned a deaf ear. His answer to Mrs. Heald, head of the Wom- | en's Christlan Temperance union lobby, | when she asked him to sign a petition | asking for a submission of a proposed pro- hibitory amendment, was: “Wait for the initiative and referendum.” Then, though Mrs. Heald waited, Mr. Bryan failed to pass the law. Since ohtes fateful days Governor Shal- | lenberger has signed the § o'clock closing | law, contrary to his campalgn talks, and Metcalfe has come out in favor of county option and against prohibition, wtih Shal- lenberger a senatorial candidate on the § o'clock platform: Metcalfe a senatorial pos- sibility on the county option platform, there was little left for Mr. Bryan to do in order to save himself with the temperance ele- ment of his party than to get in the game in a way that would not make the liquor element very wrathy, so he did. What Metcalfe's friends will say to Mr Bryan stealing Metcalfe's thunder is yet to be made public, but talk that It ti comes to a showdown be- tween the two men the democratic party in Nebraska would support eMtcaife instead of Bryan, In the Co.—South campaign last year Mr. Bryan the state, ontwithstanding appearances In v his numerous fous churches and his “Prince of Peace” lecture. But the fact that the liquor interests of the state as- sisted in the election of Governor Shallen berger and were a big factor in carrying the state for Bryan, both men have changed front, at least for the time being, and all kinds of speculation s being in- | dulged in as to how it will all end. | One of the most conservative politiclans in the state this morning predicted Bryan would again be a candidate for president on the democratic ticket and In his cam. | paign he would advocate national prohl- bition No Monmey for Friendiess. The late democratic legislature failed to make an appropriation ofr the maintenance of the Home for the Friendless or for the pay of officers and employes of that in stitution, thought it did create & pudlic | school for indigent children in the Home of the Friendless. 80 the Home for the Wriead- less will not be open for the frieadless for \ the next two years, unless some onc agre:s { to run the institution for nothing or there is created a deficlency The school for friendless children to be | opened in the Home for the Friendless | does not begin until July 1, when the law takes effect, 3o there is not even any ap- propriation to maintain this institution until that time.

The matter has been turned over to the attorney geenral wtih the request that he find some way out of the hole. In reply to an inquiry from the Btale Raflway commission regarding the pay- ment of demurruge charges, the attorney general has held that demurrage charges on an interstate shipment comes under the jurisdiction of the Interstats Commerce commission. The commission has a case wherein the charges were paid on an Inter- state shipment, but the shipper had not pald the demurrage charges. hTe commis- sion desired to know If the demurrige charges came under its jurisdiction.
