Not Organized Against Mickey.
Charles Benson. one Of the leaders In
the molding Of sentiment among the saloon
OF Lincoln, said today:
80 far as we are concerned, there has
been absolutely no organized movement or
action threatening the republican candidate
for governor. There are some men In Lin
coin who belong TO the retail liquor dealers
Of the state, but there Is no local organiIa-
tion and those who belong to the state
association do so simply for the protection
II affords them on their bonds The state
association was formed to fight suits
brought under the liquor law. and for that
purpose only. l used to belong to 1t, but
have not been a member lately. It's mem
bership is chiefly in the small towns. over
in Omaha, out Of over 200 saloon keepers,
less than twenty-five belong to the Retail
Liquor Dealers association. Most all Of
the saloon men OF Lincoln are republicans
and will support the republican candidate
for governor this year"
'If the saloons undertake to regulate the
politics Of the state said ex-speaker Paul
r. Clark, 1T would be a mighty easy
thing for the state to regulate the saloons
out Of existence by means OF the state dis
pensary system, or some other of that
character"
Dispute over Proceeds.
Saline county faanciers are we'll repre-
scented in Judge Frost's court today. Henry
Gund, president OF the Blu Valley bank
OF WILDER, which went into voluntary liqui-
dalton a year ago, is suing Byron @. Lane
and A. s. Sands to compel them to give
him his share Of the proceeds Of the liqui-
dated institution, nearly 1000.
MI IL VNN-- AAAN
Gund really ives the bank S6.57s, and ask
for the appointment of a receiver to make
all remaining collections and to compel
Gund to make good, or else. permit a credit
to the amount stated on his third share OF
the money awaiting division.
Gund was financial hacker for W. l..
Hayes & Bro. in the grain business for
years. As such he became indebted to
the bank in various sums, which notes
were renewed from time to time and In
creased steadily until they aggregated
36,57S. Gund says that the real amount
due on these notes was but $500, and
this sum was adjudlcated by the Thayer
county district court, where he paid 1t.
To this Lane and Sands retort that this
was a made-up suit, In which the bank
had made no defense to the claim OF
usurious interest, and that It was all the
result OF a conspiracy between Gund, the
president. and Judge Hastings, the attorney
Of the bank.
They claim further that they bought
stock in the institution on the faith and
credit Of the note being worth It's face
value, receiving such assurance from Gund
himself.
