wyoming Expects TO Send More
to Market Than Last


CASPER, wyo., Sept. s-(special.) )-Stock
shipments from central Wyoming to the
eastern markets have been heavy during
the last few weeks. more than 500 cars of
sheep and cattle having been shipped out
already and the season is hardly here for
the large shipments. The Northwestern rail-
way officials estimate that more than 1000
cars will be shipped during the fall. The
total number OF cars shipped last year was
about 1.5OO. The number of cars is about
equally divided between sheep and cattle.
Much live stock is now being shipped over
the Northwestern which formerly went to
the Burlington md Union Pacific, as the
line now penetrates territory which was
many miles from a railroad before last
year. Orders for $50 cars for the FIRST ten
days OF September have been received to
accommodate shippers west of Casper.
Stock shipments are handled without delay
and in a very satisfactory manner so far

RAIN AND HAIL ARE HEAVY
Torrents Send Mercury Down Nine
teen Degrees in Just One
H0ur

Omaha was visited suddenly and strenu-
ously by a rain Saturday evening and the
rain brought along its friend, hail, who
remained for quite a little visit also. The
rain began to fall at 5t25 and the first
shower ceased at $50. Those twenty-five
minutes brought a precipitation-in- the
downtown districts-of 0.56, of which 0.42
fell in ten minutes. Hail. stones of good
size came down. but they were thicker ap1
larger at Florence. There they caused
some alarm, but did no serious damage.
One of the remarkable features of the
rain was that In the western part of tho
city It was quite light. while down town
1t came In torrents. Another peculiar fea-
ture was that from to O'Clock the mer-
curry fell just 10 degrees 1t was 81 at
and s. at 6. At I It had climbed back to
73. The rain and decline in temperature
brought welcome relief from dust and
warmth.
The rain came suddenly that II caught
large crowds of persons returning from
their work to their homes. The day had
been bright, oclear and quite warm for a
September day and did not possess the
slightest indication of rain until dark
clouds gathered and burst almost before
they were observed. As a result OF con-
ditions people tore for shelter wherever
they could find it. They ran for cars. cor
ners or anything else that afforded pro-
lection. Many a belated straw hat was
hurried to it's winter resort At Sixteenth
and Farnam and Douglas the water washed
back against the pavement in deep pools
and down Farnam street It ran in rushing
streams.

.TELEeRAPHERs MEET TODAY
Local Union win elect Omcers for
Next Year-PresIdent Kirkland
on strike Situation.

President kirkland Of the local tel
egraphers' union says:
"Our men now on strike are securing
employment in other lines of business,
and few. IL any, Of them will ever return
to the telegraph companies. The men
are cheerful and as optimistic as at the
Inauguration Of the strike. Reports are
received daily from practically every
large city in the country giving the con-
ditions in those cities. and when these
reports are read at the daily meetings
they are invariably cheered by those pres
ent. A meeting will be held today at
Washington hall, at which officers will
be elected.
Should the strike be declared OF Mon
day there would be big shortage of
competent operators. II must'be borne
in mind that the really expert operators
are the ones who are out and when
normal conditions are resumed, especially
when the heavy overland circuits ore
opened UP to their full capacity, the COM
panies will be badly crippled for efficient
telegraphers to man these wires.
The local telegraphers are daily cheered
and enthused by reports received from
every city of any size in the United
States and Canada They serve as a
source or reliable information 1Or the
men on strike. From indications the men
are standing firm everywhere and are
as determined to win as on the first day
Of the strike. One source of Information
comes in the shape of a 'mailogram
which is printed in Chicago, and gives
the conditions in each city in the coun-
try. A daily paper has been started in
New York City called Fair Play, edited
by Daniel L. Russell, a prominent union
operator of that city. These papers give
accurate and reliable information and are
entirely different from the majority OF
newspaper reports.
"The statements OF the telegraph off,
cials that they expected number OF
their men to return to work the follow
ing day has invariably failed to material
iZe These statements, as the mer
well know, are given out with a view
of causing a stampede. They have had
absolutely no effect on our men, as they
are too familiar with these tactics to be
misled by them. TO every man the
companies have gained the strikers have
pulled two out, and the companies tUday

Judicial Nomination..

NORFOLK, Neb., Sept. S.-(Special }
Northern Nebraska judicial nominations
made at the primary election Tuesday
seem now to be fairly definitely settled.
Republican nominations appear to be: A. r.
Olson of Wisner. Eighth district; A. A.
Welch. Wayne. Ninth district; A. w.
scattergood, Ainsworth. and J. A. Douglas,
Bassett Fifteenth district.
Apparently these are the democratic or
fusion nominees: Guy Graves, Pender,
Eighth district; no nominee in the Ninth
j. J. Harrington, O'Neill and william II.
westover. Rushville. Fifteenth district.
In the Ninth district Judge A. A. Welch
had no contest in the primary and will
have none in the November election He
was nominated by republicans, both to fill
vacancies from election day until January
1, and to fill the regular term beginning
January l.
In the Eighth district A. r. Olson Of
wisner was pitted against Pearson of
Ponca in the primary for republican NOM
ination, and returns indicate that Olson
was nominated without a doubt On the
democratic side, Judge Graves was OPP
posed by Moody OF West Point and Whit
ney Of Randolph. but Judge Graves has
been renominated without a question.
In the Fifteenth two judges are to be
elected and consequently two nominations
were made by each party. On the repub-
lican side incomplete returns from Brown,
Rock and Boyd counties give these re-
suits: Scattergood. 332; Douglas, 3s4; AL
der. 267; Morgan. 226; Jenckes, 15s; Brown,

az him by william Jennings Bryan. He
spoke at Olympia and Tacoma TO two big

One thousand persons cheered him this

where he spoke in the open air. He said,
in part: Mr.. Bryan. in discussing some Of
my views on the tariff and other matters.

great postponer.'

revision of the tariff in the midst of pres

the republican party, as a party, will come
to a revision OF the tariff Immediately after
the next presidential election, and l am in
favor of practical results. not of theories
and platforms; Of doing things which
should be done. II It cannot be done this

He added: For two presidential campaigns
Mr.. Bryan urged the free coinage OF silver
at is to l, but now he is posponing the issue
until he can bring 1t forward again as a
panacea in times of financial disaster.
Secondly, Mr.. Bryan is now emphasizing
the subject of ant-imperialism and the op-
preston of the Filipinos, but he postponed
the issue of anti-imperialism until by his
effort the treaty of Paris was adopted and
the sovereignty of the Philippines was
transferred from Spain to the United States.
This is really the only piece of actual affirm
ative. constructive craftsmanship with
which Mr.. Bryan's name has been con-
nected. and he has now for eight years been

Commissioner Ryder Boost
Ing Nebraska.

LINCOLN, Sept. S-(Special )-Should
p. A. Caldwell lose out in ther ace for the
republican nomination for railway COM
missioner, he may run as the democratic
candidate. II has been reported in Lincoln
that he received a number of votes on the
democratic ballot and inasmuch as the
democrats had no candidate for this office,
he has therefore received a mtJority of the
democratic votes and is the democratic
nominee. Whether Caldwell as n republican
would remain on the democratic ticket of
course cannot be stated authoritatively.
but this much is cert ain, Caldwell would
like to be railway commissioner and he
is certain he can go on the ticket as the
democratic nominee, and he believes he can
be elected. In discussing the matter yester-
day he treated it as a joke, yet at the
same time he gave some evidence of being
serious in the matter. He has felt out a
number of republicans to see what they
think Of it. Naturally he has received little
encouragement here to make the race as a
democrat, but the idea mas at least been
entertained by him. In the meantime the
democrats may go to the courts TO set
aside the ruling OF the secretary OF state
and attempt to get a democrat on the
ticket this fall.
