NO FEAR FROM SIOUX CITY
Think Iowa Town Can InJure
Interests Here.

The Sioux City papers are agitating the
establishment of grain market at Sioux
City, pointing out the fact that the city
has more good grain territory at its very
door than has either Omaha or Kansas
City and declaring there is no reason why
1t should not become a greater market
than either of these. According to an
evening paper printed In that city, Com
missioner Beardsley of the Sioux City
Commercial club went to Chicago last week
and received much encouragement from
members of the Chicago Board OF Trade,
who thought Sioux City might become q
grain center. .4.
= A live grain exchange and the proper CO.
operation of the railroads. say the Sioux
City papers. would get for that town
practically all of the grain business OF
northeast Nebraska and Of South Dakota.
Omaha grain men say the talk grew out
of the announcement that the milwaukee,
and Northwestern are adjusting South Da-
bota rates for the benefit of Omaha, the
Sioux City people saying that neither
Omaha? -ChicaS 70 or Minneapolis has any
right to the grain from this section. The
local dealers say the Idea is entirely vision
airy and they do not fear the establish
ment OF any market across the river the
primal requisite for this being railroad
support, whereas none of the roads enter
ing Sioux City would have any interest in
the foundation of another market on the
Missouri river. Sioux City has no ele-
vators. except a small one for local storag
purposes.

IN JAIL TWICE IN ONE HOUR
Before the Peoples
Bar.

In the discharge and rearrest OF Ed
George within an hour on a charge OF be-
ing drunk the interesting question Of in
sursnce has been raised and the. people
bar will have to erapple with 1t. Police
Judge Crawford handed down an informal
opinion that he would not insure the police
that a discharged prisoner would refrain
from drinking for an hour, but as no
question is settled until It is settled right,
the officers who round VI the wicked be-
fore the peoples bar say the question is
still open for argument.
Mr.. George had been arrested for being
drunk. He was brought up before the
peoples bar and at once won the heart OF
the police Judge by his downcast and
honest face. He was discharged.
Less than an hour later Mr.. George was
again, riding through the streets Of Omaha
In the new patrol wagon. He was drunk.
He had headed west on Farnam street as
soon as striking that thoroughfare after
leaving the station and at every emporium
he rinsed little Jail dust out OF his
throat. At Thirtieth and Fsrnam he leaned
up against a low fence to rest. He fell
over It and was gathered in by the lynx
eyed policeman.
Judge, MIR. George is again downstairs
drunk" said Sergeant Whalen in what was
meant for a tone of chastisement
We'll, It isn't my fault l discharged
the man, but didn't insure prisoners
won't get drunk after they are discharged.
I'm running police court not an insurance
ONCE" retorted the Judge
I'VE will discuss that insurance ques-
ton" said all the police in chorus.

Another congressional convention with

what the republicans did for Congressman

difference In the situation. however chiefly
because Mr.. Kennedy was renominated as
a reward for two years Of faithful service.
while no one else In the democracy except
Mr. Hitchcock cares 90 acquire notoriety

Hitchcock thought he was a senatorial
candidate many growls were heard ahong
the rank and file who did not like the idea
of any man. even the editor OF the World
Herald, going out cunning for two last
hope political jobs at once. Since Mr..
Hitchcock got it in the thorax at Lincoln,
however. and w. II. Thompson was nomi-
mated for senator. his local enemies are
willing to yield him the empty honor of the
congressional nomination.
Place Not Decided on.
Mr.. Hitchcock has not decided where the
convention will be held, as Gubernatorial
Nominee Shallenberger wants to be present
and make a speech and It is desired to pro-
