’)A r p ¢ THE BEE Nebraska OMAHA MEN KNOCK OPTION Representative Shoemaker Sees Gov- \ ernor About the Situation, COMES 0UT WITH KNOWING LOOK | Nice Little Game of Polities— B4 P. Smith Visits Executive. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March 25.—(8peclal.)—Not- withstanding Governor Bhallenberger said he would stay in the race for governor even If the democratic party declared for county option, and he is personally op- posed to it because county option means prohibition, Judge W. 8. Shoemaker, a | member of the democratic leglslature from Douglas county, s still for Gov- ernor Shallenberger, After a conference with the governor this morning Judge Shoemaker sald: “Governor Shallenberger did say he would run on any platform the party adopted, but then you know how he might have had to say that” And then the Douglas vcounty statesman screwed up his eyes to indicate that he knows how things are done in politics. Continuing, | he sald: | “The governor was safe enough in say- | ing that he would run on a county option Platform if the party adopted that plat- form beeausc the party will not stand for county option. No, sir, not by a — sight Mr. Bryan will never be able to force the democratic party to endorse county op- tion. No, sir; by ——! No, sir. Not the democratic party. No, Smith Also Opposed. Ed P. Smith, who placed Governor Shall enberger in nomination in 1006, taking a | nomination from George W. Berge by the | constant repetition of the expression ‘A democrat for democrats,” was ;nulhorJ caller at the executive off! “County option will recelve very nmsl encouragement at the hands of the demo- | cratic party in Douglas county,” sald Mr. Bmith. “So far as Mr. Bryan Is concerned, 1 do not belleve that he wil) endeavor to force county option In the platform. If he | does he will get very little help from Oncaha.” Something like fear has been thrown into the hearts of the Shallenberger appointees ! by reason of the vote cast in Douglas | county for James E. Boyd when he ran for | governor. In that election Boyd recelved | 18,8 votes, Richard 6,45, Powers 1,173 and | Palne 222 Prohibition was an issue in that | eleation, and it 18 now, and the fear of the | governor's henchmen Is that Dahlman may duplicate that Boyd vote at the primary. Having. sald he would stand on & county | option platform if adopted by the demo- crafic party, -while Mayor Dahiman has | arnounced he is opposed to county option | Jregardless of party or anythiug else, the governor's supporters are beglnning to be- | lieve he has made a mistake in catering to | the Bryan Influence. Checking Up Automobil Foilowing the example of Douglas county, the assessor of Lancastcr county is now checking off the names of automobile own- ers from the registration list on file in the | office of the secretary of state. By using this list as a check the county assessor wili be able to locate every automoblle in his county for mesessment purposes. i Gllbert to Try Again, (! C. F.

The district court of Lanoaster county has just dismissed a suit in which the state outgrowth of the failure of the Capital¥a- tional bank. S. W. Burnham, then county treasurer, had on deposit of county funds some $35,000, of which $32,000 was eventually lost entirely. That was in 1893. Later it was alleged that $5,000 of that money had eon collected for the state. The treasurer ad pald over to the state the $5,000, so suit was brought to recover. Attorney General Thompson filed a demurrer to the sult, which whs sustained by the district court, but which decision was reversed by the su- preme court. The attorney general then filed an an- swer in which he alleged that the money had not been deposited as state taxes and that ‘the money belonged to the county. Had the county recovered with interest the state would have been.out in the nelgh- borhood of $16,000. The case was dismissed for want of prosecution, It Is sald the records of the bank, which were In the hands of a recelver, had been so0 badly eaten by mice that it is probable the county could get no evidence.
