THE BEE: OMAHA, — @9 s v JANT PRII).\Y, TARY Nebraska DEMOS CASTING | ABOUT FOR TIMBER !lx Senator Allen Quoted as Saying Has Had Glory Enough for Him. i CROFTON MAN 1(0 WMENTIONED | (From a Staft Correspondent.) | } LINCOLN, Jan 27.—(Special.)—The name of Dr. Taleott of Crofton, who Is ,nm\ a member of the State Pardon 1Imnm is mentioned frequently for the | [demgqeratic nomination for gofernor l\r.l Talcot served with considerable glory in the 1913 session of the Nebraska house of | |lords and is considered an able man. I Allen Not Anxious, | Senator Allen of Madison looks good to | some, but the senator has been heard to | isay that as United States senator he ;nrm»od sufficient honors to last him for |{the rest of his life and being governor of | the state, while generally considered an | honor, would not add anything to the | glory of a United States senator, and, besides, it takes money to run for the nomination, more money to run for the ‘necunn it nominated and stll a great |feal more to serve after winning the Jelection, and as Senator Allen's wealth |will not quite measure up to that of or Carnegie, he does not know whether he wants to be governor or not. Running for the office is a small part of the game. It is said that the man | |who fill sthe office and lives in the big |mansion across the way fromthe state capitol spends more money than most men of moderate means can afford | Governor Sheldon was heard to say |after hie defeat that there was one satis \faction in defeat anyway, that he would e about $7,600 ahead by being deefated {R(wke(e"er Sheldon's Experience, Governor Morehead has refused to ac- |eept anything from the state for the ex- |penses incident to being governor, outside {of the salary of $2,500 per year. He has traveled a great deal at his own expense lmnd it is said that the office will have lcost him considerably more than the figures made by Governor Sheldon | Governor Aldrich says tha his family ried to be as economical as possible and | passed up many tohings which as gov- ernor of tne state he ought to have un- dertaken, and yet In the two years he ‘was governor he spent twice the amount ‘of the salary. | Salaries Too Low. Speaking further on the matter, he said |that the peole of Nebraska should awaken 1o the conditions which were growlong, \for it was beginning to be shown that none but a man well fixed financially may hope to aspire to any important of- fice in the state in the gift of the people These things, with the general feeling that there will be hard sledding for any democrat who aspires to be olected to state office this year, has a tendency to | make the nomination for governor at the | liands of the democratic party in Ne- braska anything but desired. | Territorial Pioneer Dies at Maynard i PLATTSMOUTH, Neb., Jan. nA—(spe- cial)—Benjamin Marler, aged 9 years, ‘dled Wednesday afternoon at his late /home near Mynard of pneumonia, after ian iliness extending over two weeks.
