York-Warm Contest in Colorado.
Uncertainty In Nebraska.

New York, Nov. affection day
finds the leaders of both the parties
ctill claiming large, and in many. in
stances increased, pluralities for their
respective candidates
Frank Campbell, chairman of the
Democratic state committee. had de-
-clared himself convinced that his es-
innate of $4,000 plurality in the state
for Coler for governor erred on the
side of modesty, and expresses CONN.,
dence that the candidate is sure OF
election by at least $4,000. Mr.. Camp
bell declared that his increased esti-
mate was based on late information,
which indicated a landslide for the
Democratic party. He thought it not
improbable that Coler's plurality
might run as high as $4,000 votes.
while Coler himself is more sanguinc,
being sure that the governorship will
be his by plurality of fully 10000
votes.
Colonel George w. Dunn, chairman
OF the Republican state committee, on
the other hand, stands fast to his orig
inal estimate of $4,000 plurality for
Odell, which is practically the same
as that of the candidate himself.
Leaders of both parties agree that
there is little likelihood of any radical
change in the complexion of the con
gressional delegation Of New York
county. the results in many districts
being foregone conclusions. Outside
OF the battle for the governorship. the
election in the metropolis Is exciting
unusually little interest.

The attempt was made on last Wed
nesday night to rob the store of D. w.
Alderman & Sons Co., at Alcolu.
The thieves broke into blacksmith
shop, procured tools and while attempt
ing to effect an entrance into the store
Messrs. Wilson Dickson and Gray,
clerks, sleeping in an adjoining room
were awakened by the noise, and Mr..
Dickson fired in the direction where
the burglars were supposed to be. The
firing of the gun frightened the scoun-
drels off, but trail of blood was left
behind showing that the shot took eff
feet. The next day Constable W. T.
Kelly, of Foreston, who by the way,
is terror to bad characters, was en-
trusted with warrant, and accompa-
MED by Magistrate Youmans, went to
Alcolu, and not long after their arrival,
the suspected party was pointed out on
account Of a strong smell of turpen-
tine. Mr.. Kelly told the fellow who
calls himself Preston Dray to take off
his shirt which be did, and felt quite
safe when there was no signs OF gun
shot upon his body. Kelly however,
was not so easily led Off the track, so
he requested that the pants be taken
off, to this Dray objected, but Kelly in
sisted and when it was done it was dis
covered that the fellow was well sprink-

relieved him of a number OF them.
Dray was brought to Manning and
lodged in jail, the other fellow has not

The County Commissioners propose
to spend about 81, 800 to make an addi-
ton to the court house which, in our
opinion, is net at all necessary. The
court house is plenty large for the bus
mess it does and the people who have
the taxes to pay are making no demand
to enlarge the building. a few years
ago 81, 500 was paid for vault, and now
add another 1900 will make our court
house an expensive affair without COM
mensurate benefits. If the county has
the funds, hire number of gangs OF
able-bodied men at fair wages, and
build up our highways. The roads and
bridges put in good condition will 40
the taxpayers more substantial good
than making more room in the court
house. When people are petitionlng
the commissioners to fix the roads and
bridges so that the tobacco growers
can bring their product to this market,
it is time to consider their convenience
and needs. We understand that there
is nearly $4,000 in the treasury: why
not spend part of that money in hir-
inc first class road building? If the
roads are put in first class condition the
taxpayers can haul heavier loads: our
towns and villages will be benefited:
church attendance will increase, and IN
fact everything which tends to the bet
terment of the people will take on new
life. but adding twenty or fifty or oOO
feet to the court house will not have
such a beneficial result.

The Manning cemetery is now in
need of work and Mr.. W. c. Chandler,
who has been taking great interest in
looking after the well-keeping of the
"City of the Dead" is willing to con-
tinue looking after it, but it takes
money to employ labor and those inter-
ested should hand in their contribu-
lions at once. The conditions are such
now that the work can be done at this
time for much less than it will take if
the matter is put off. 1t should not be
put off. 1t should not be necessary to
appeal to the citizens of Manning to
make contributions for the well-keep-
ing of this sacred spot, and the only
reason it is done is that the people
must know TO whom they might
give their mite. Mr.. W. G. Chandler
is ready to receive contributions and he
will give his personal attention to see
ing that the graves are cleaned. and
that the walks are put in proper con-
dition. To start the movement we here
with contribute s. and hope that Mr..
Chandler will not have TO 60 outside OF
his place Of business to receive other
contributions.
