lage elections were held throughout Ne
braska today with the exception of
Omaha. The main issue in most of the
smaller places was license, and the re-
suits are mixed, the greater of towns ap-
parentIy being favorable to licensing the
traffic for another year. While party
politics cut little figure in the smaller
towns, vet Republican gains are noticed
all over the state, especially in the cities
several Democratic strongholds going Re
publican. South Omaha for the first time
in his history, elects a Republican mayor
A. r. Kelley being the successful candi-
date by 800 plurality. The Republicans
also elect treasurer, three councilmen and
two out of three members of the school
board. There We're three tickets in the
field. Last year Ensor Democrat, was
elected mayor by 1,200 majority. Lincoln
gives the largest Republican majority for
years and makes a clean sweep on the
local ticket. Crete, for years Democratic,
gives Republican majority. O'Netll and
Ashland are also Republican. Up to mid
night few OF the smaller places have re-
ported any Democratic or fusion gains

City Attorney j. c. Nethaway is In re-
ceipt of letter from Judge Williston, of
the district court, in which the latter says
that he did not decide the city's lien
rights in an action recently brought by
the city against County Auditor Browne
to prevent the forfeited land sale next
month. Judge Williston says that that
question did not enter the case The
city council is anxious to ascertain just
where the city stands in this matter
there being large number of unpaid as
sessments standing against some of the
property to be sold, and if absolute title
to the lands is given by the May sale the
council fears that the city will lose a
large sum of money. These assessments
form no part of the taxes for which the
lands are to be sold, and 1t is more than
likely that the question Will have to be
carried to the supreme court for rul-
ing. A ten days stay of proceedings has
been taken.

british PLUCK.
Beers Were DumbfOunded and Pro
fOundly Impressed.


BUSI1MAN'S EOP, April 2-Hearing
that the water works were deserted, the
correspondent OF the Reuters Telegram
agency rode forward today. Arriving at
the crest of hill a volley was fired
at him, and moment later a man ap,
pearod at the top of the crest. Calling
on him to stop firing, and saying he was
unarmed and desired to talk with him.
the correspondent discovered that this
man was an American, who declared that
he accompanied the Beers only as a sight
seer. He said that never during his whole
life had he witnessed such magnificent
pluck as that shown by the British
Saturday, and he asserted that not only
himself, but the whole Boer army we're
profoundly touched with admiration at
their gallant behavior.
1t appears that the Beers never doubted
their ability to capture the whole Brit
ish force, and Were dumbfounded at the
courage displayed, and the mastery way
in which the force was able to escape
from the death trap.
The correspondents informant refused
Boer forces, or their movements, but it
appeared the present force was detached
from Kroonstad, Joined the Ladybrand
force, and again divided north of Tina ba
NChu, one portion following the other
and meeting Col. Broadwood's retreating
force. Burghers engaged consisted of
Schocman's command, which was ac-
companied by many foreigners. Com
mandant John Y. Blake was present with
the Irish brigade and other foreigners.
