Nebraska ; CARRIERS GET AXE | T0 SAVE EXPENSEE Four Lincoln Men Relieved of Work and Thrown Out of Jobs They Expected to Keep. ARE TOLD THEY MUST RESIGN (From a Btaff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Sept. 23.—{Special )—Efforts of the democratic administration at Washington to stave off the inevitable deficlency are again being shown in the postoffice department here in Lincoln, and efficlency is said to be suffering be- cause of outting off carriers in order to save the money. During the present month four carriers bave been dismissed from the postoffice force who were under civil service rules. All were substitute carriers and two of them have been in the service four years, L. F. Grandy, whose story is simllar to the rest, but more noticeable because he quit a good job at school teaching nine months in the year t6 take on the carrier job, where he could work the: year around, was dismissed without & hearing as the civil service rules require. When called on the carpet he says that he and the rest were given the cholce of having their heads lopped off by a request to resign or signing a prepared resignation which would allow them to work a month longer. The took the lat- ter way because each of them needed the work. Grandy, who has a wife and two ohil- dren, Is now at work on a farm outside of town. All of them worked long enough #o that they were in line of promotion to a regular carrier job. The only reason given for the action of the department was that they were too old. The rules of the department are that & man must be under 4 when he enters the service. Grandy was 40 when he went to work four years ago. It is charged that if the department had no idea of allowing these men to come in because of the age limit, it had no right to take them on as subcarriers knowing that they expected promotion. PROHIBITION WORKERS ARE HAVING MERRY WAR (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Sept. 23.—(Special.)—What the governor of Norig Carolina sald to the governor of South Carolina, accord- ing to rumor, several years ago Wwhen the two met on a warm day in the gentle summer time, may have been interesting to them from a prohibition standpoint, byt-A. G. Wolfenbarger, chief attorney for the prohibition forces in Nebrasks, is saying about Frank Harrison, also a proinent worker along making Ne- braska dry lines, is important at this time in that it shows that the dry forces are mot golng to be found working in harmony in the coming campalgn. Mr., Harrison is not backward in ac- cusing the forces under General Wolfen- barger, who have for many years fought for prohibition as a party issue, of col- lecting funds under a false representa- tion. Wolfenbarger comes back at Har- rison and knocks the chip off of the waliant leader of the dry forces outside i of the prohibition party and the two are heving a busy time accusing each other of wanting to make Nebraska dry in his own perticular way. OCONTO MAN HELD ON CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT BROKEN BOW, Neb., Sept. 23.—(Spe- clal.)—Saeriff Wilson has returned from Kearney with John A. Schelllng of Oconto, this county, who is charged with embezzling from the Stickel Lumber company of that place the sum of $320.27. The complaint was filed by Countty Attorney Kelly at the instance of W, L. Stickel, a member of the firm. Schelling was manager of the Oconto branch of the Btickel Lumber company from 1911 to sometime in 1915, but was working at the Stickel yard at Kearney when the warrant was served upon him. He has always been popular as a bust- ness man and has many friends in the neighborhood of Oconto. The shortage is alleged to have been discovered when Schelling’s accounts were audited, Schelling is now in the custody of the #heriff pending the return of County Judge Ford from Omaha, when prelimi- nary hearing will be had.
