QUIET AFTER CONVENTION
NORTH NEBRASKA DELEGATES
HAVE RETURNED HOME.
RosEwATER NOW is FOR BROWN

Editor Of the Bee, Who Made Such a
Hard Fight for the Senatorial Nomi.
nation, Goes Home and Supports the
Man Who Was Chosen.
Northern Nebraska delegates who
attended the Lincoln republican state
convention, have practically all
reached their homes, tired out with
the heat of the convention hall and
fatigued with the long strain of the
convention battle.
In the final ticket north Nebraska
drew several places, among which
were nominations for treasurer which
went to Brian of Albion railroad com.

Boyd county's candidate, Robert Lynn
was defeated.
Edward Rosewater, editor of the
Omaha Bee, has resumed his news
paper work in Omaha after a hard
political campaign. Mr.. Rosewater
in his issue of Friday morning, dis
cussing the Lincoln convention in
which Norris Brown was nominated
over him, gives his support to Brown
declares himself more firmly than ever
for self government and gives a hint
that Senator Burkett may expect 9
battle four years hence. Editorially
the Bee says:
1t was n foregone conclusion that
one of the two leading candidates foi
United States senator would be in
dorsed by the convention The choice
fell to Attorney General Norris Brown
whose persistent campaign was ably
managed to benefit by the resentment
of the great mass of taxpayers agains
the railroad tar shippers, and the in
cidental popular feeling against trusts
in general and the grain trust in par
ticular. Though entirely new to the
| field of national politics, Mr.. Brown
will measure up well with the mel
who have recently represented Ne

INTERESTING LAW POINT
CAN SIDEWALK BE TORN UP WITH.
OUT CONDEMNATION NOTICE?
3. HIGHT is THE PLAINTIFF
oscar Richey, Street Commissioner, Is
Made Defendant in Case-Tore up
Walk on Order of Mayor, Who Says
II Was Dangerous at the Time.

Is the city street commissioner Grim
inally liable for tearing up a sidewalk
on authority of the mayor before
property owner? This is the legal
point which was settled yesterday af-
ternoon in jury trial held in Justice
Eiseley's court B. Hight is the plain
tiff and City Street Commissioner Os-
car Richey the defendant.
1t is alleged by the complainant that
the sidewalk along his lots on North
Ninth street, between Norfolk avenue
and Koenigstein avenue, was torn up
by the street commissioner before
proper notice had been given to Hight
that the walk was condemned. He
| therefore swore out complaint
against Richey on the charge of will
| fully destroying property.
The defendant claims that he acted
under instructions of Mayor Friday in
tearing up the walk; that the walk
had been condemned and was danger
Gus; and that it was condemned three
years ago by the city council.
| The walk was torn up soon after
two persons in Norfolk had fallen on
defective walks and been so badly in.
jured that two good sized damage suits
were brought against the city.
1t is alleged by the defendant that
the walk was dangerous, that side
walks belong to the city, and that he
had given personal notice to the lot
owner to remove the walk
The plaintiff claims that the walk
is personal property and that the law
requires he shall be given thirty days
official notice after the walk is con-
moved by the city.
The jury in the case is as follows:
f. B. Kaufman, August Brummund
and DR.. c. f. w. Marquardt. City At
torney Weatherby appeared for the
defendant and County Attorney Koen-
igstein for the plaintiff.
Mr.. Hight says the walk was in fair
condition, had recently been repaired
and that he wanted to wait until he
built a house before making a new
walk. He believes the walk was torn
up through spite work and swore that
he never had received any notice that
the walk had ever been condemned
Mayor Friday swore the walk had
had a right, when a walk was danger
Gus, to order it out.
The case was won by Richey.

Gompers is Preparing to List Them
According to Their Labor Attitude.
Washington, Aug. 25.-In the next
issue of the American Federationist,
President Gompers, of the American
Federation of Labor, will publish a
list of western congressman whom he
will put either on an ''honor rolf or
on a blacklist" according to their
attitude on certain questions in which
organized labor is interested.
Recently President Gompers sent
out a circular letter to all senators and
members demanding to know their at,
titude on the questions discussed in
President Roosevelt at the last ses
sion of congress.
Replies are being received from
senators and congressman, and Com
pers is marking them as either for OF
against the interest of organized la
| Dor.
The publication of the list is to be
an important step in connection witt
the entry of labor into politics. The
September issue of the Federationis
will contain 1913 of the replies received
by President Gompers from senators
and congressman. This will be fol
lowed up by another batch in October
All members who fail to reply vii

lamont N|LLgASE SETTLED
BOTH SONS SHARE IN ESTATE OF
THEIR FATHER.
PROPERTY ALL wILLEo TO ONE
Estate includes Four Hundred Acres
Of Land Ad dioinns and a Part of the
Town of Niobrara-SettIed Out of
Court on Saturday.

Niobrara, Neb., Aug. 27.-Special to
The News: The Lamont will case,
which was to have been held at Cen
ter next Wednesday before the county
judge, was settled out of court here
Saturday. 1t involved about 400 acres
of land adjoining and part of the town
between the artesion we'll race and
the Northwestern depot. 1t is claimed
that William Lamont made his will
only twelve days before his death, in
which he left all his estate to his eld-
est son, Frank, and ignoring the young
er son, Scott. He had seen neither of
the boys since the early '60's, when
their mother left and took them with
her to her old Pennsylvania home
where they were educated and gwen
| trades. On his deathbed Lamont sent
for the oldest son, who was with him
at the time of his death and settled
the estate for himself. Scott came or
early in the summer to investigate
matters and engaged counsel to breal
the will. Negotiations recently fol
lowed, and Saturdays meeting of coun
sci for both sides gave Scott his equa
share in the estate save some persona
property allowed the elder brother t
retain.

One of the remarkable things about

Other improvements necessary are

The soil is rich alluvial, or made. II
