BIG VOTE LOOKED FOR TODAY Prohibition of All Saloons is the sue Agminst a Proposal to Close At Six Thirty Instea of Seven. From a Staff Correspondent LINCOLN, Neb, May 3.—Lass than a quorum of the state board of equalization and assessment met today and an adjourn- ment was taken without the transaction of this board to meet the first Monday in home from Norfolk to be present and Land Commissioner Cowles, who had been in vestigating state lands in the western par of the state, was also presant. Secretary Chris Schaviand had an arm full of books and records, but they were unopened be cause no other members were present | Becretary of State Junkin is on his farm in Gosper county, Btate Treasurer Brian | is visiting relatives In California and Aud ftor Barton is in Chloago on insurance busnless. Governor Shallenberger and Mr Cowles being new members of the board and less than a quorum being present de cided to adjourn, The board will meet from time to tim tllthe rallroad assessment and equaliza | tion of values between counties and classes | of property Is made. The fact that tie statute requires the board to meet the first Monday In May dld not deter the board from belng absent on that date one year ago. The governor was not present. Act ing Governor Charles L. Saunders called & meeting one year ago and had the pleasure of meeting all by himself. He ad- Journed after a brief perod of meditation and none of the rallroads questioned the subsequent work of tha board which it ac- complished later In the year. It fs not thought the faiiure of the board to have a Quorum present at the first meeting will glve any taxpayer a chance to set aside assessments, because the revenue law pro- vides that Irregularities in assessments shall not Invalidate taxes levied. Phobition is the Isane. Over 8000 votes are expected to be cast in Lincoln tomorrow, due very largely to the fact that prohblition is again an issue. At both headquarters Monday it wa |.~um| that the vote was sure to be a big one, because, In addition, there are warm contests in all of the wards over council men, and because every city officer who is on the elective list is to be selected this time. The pelice judge, it may be re- marked, does not belong in the strictly city list. At republican headquarters the feeling is strong that Love will carry the city by from 1,500 to 200 majority. At demcoatic headquarters they believe that Malone wiil pull through with a falr majority Last fall 9,621 votes were cast in the city Last sp-ing when prohibition was the Jssue, about 7,800 were polled. It will be seen, therefore, that with all the induce- ments to vote this spring, the estimate of 8,000 is not likely to be far off. Thres men, Adna Dobson for englnesr, H. 8. Wiggins for cemetery frustee and James A. Sheffleld for fax commissioner, have no opposition. For treasurer, George L. Dayton, republican, is opposed by Joseph W. Bryan, democrat. For olty clerk there Is a three-cornered contest be- tween Roscoe C. Ozman, regularly nomi- nated at the republican primary; J. R. Day, democrat, and Barr Parker. Parker was a former republican councilman from the Fifth ward. He ran two years ago against Prait for the republican nomina- tion. This vear he filed as a candidate without submitting his candidacy to the primary. Ozman and Day have both made active ‘campaigns, and Parker has been around some, t0o. Ozman 18 strong among the universify men, the old soldlers and the Spanlsh war veterans, and has the ad- vantage of a republican primary nomina- tion. John M.
