BROKEN BOWS CANDIDATES.
Candy Wants Shallenber to Make Him
State Game Warden and Dean
is After Supreme Judgeship.

Broken Bow has developed two
candidates for appointments at
at the hands Of the state execu-
tive this week. Jesse Candy
has come out as a candidate for
Game Warden and Attorney j..
X. Dean would like to ba one OF
the new Supreme Judge appoint.
ed under the constitutional
amendments passed at the elec
tion. If Candy secures his Iap-
pointment it will come through
Governor-E lect Stallenberger,
while Dean must look to Cover
nor Sheldon for his appointment.
Both of these men were workers
in the interest OF the fusion cause
in the recent campaign. Dean
did not devote as much time and
money to pushing the Demo-
cratic interests TO the front as
Jess did.
While the appointment of the
supreme judges will be made by
Governor Sheldon it is expected
that he will not limit the APP
pointment to Democracts because
both parties endorsed the con-
stitutlonal amendments and as
sisted in passing them. Mr..
Deans application for the ap-
pointment is endorsed by four
teen Republican and eleven
Democratic members of the Gus
ter County Bar. This endorse
ment is an excellent testimonial
of Mr.. Deans standing among
the members of the local bar
association.
Jesse Candy has the endorse
ment of quite large number OF
Republicans as well as Democrats.
Jesse was the State Populist
committeeman and the congress.
sional Democratic committeeman
in the campaign just closed and
spent lots of time and money in
pushing forward the Democratic
cause. He was a candidate Tor
county assessor last fall and ran
900 votes ahead of the Demo
cratic candidate for supreme
Judge. He has been residen,
of this county for twenty-eight
years.

ship. The Railroad Track
Made the Dividing Line.

Persuant to adjournment OF
August Is, 1908, the County
Board of Supervisors met at the
court house at 9, a. m. Nov. 10.
All members were present. The
petition Of Allen ct al asking for
a new polling place in west Gus
ter precinct was referred to the
bridge committee. The commit
tee reported favorable and the
board adopted the report. The
John Maier school house, was Sc
lected as the new polling place
This will prove a great conven-
fence to the people of the SOUTH
western corner Of the township,
many of whom have have not
been going to election because
of the great distance they had to
travel.
The claim of Alb Butcher for
damages caused by his horse
breaking through the Gates
bridge was allowed.
Thc seceion line commencing
at the southeast corner of section
is, T. l9, r. lS, running thence
, one mile west was declared pub
lie highway.
The application of H. M. Sui
livan praying that Broken Bow
sownship be devided into two
road districts and suggesting the
B. & Nj. Railroad Company's
tracks as the devlding line, was
granted. All north of the center
of the railroad tract will here af-
ter be known as road district No
l and all south OF the track will
be be road district No. ? The
object of this change is to elimi-
nate tue confusion which results
from the lack of cooperation on
the part of the road overseers.
The matter OF the appointme mt
of the two road overseers was
not taken up by the board. II
has not been definitely decided
what will be aonc about the road
overseer quettion. The road
work may be managed by the
township board and no overseers
appointed or the township board
may appoint two mon to oversee
the work.

Clarence Mackey of Ansley
carried this county by consider
able larger vote than did w. B.
Eastman Of this city but the re-
turns for the whole state indi-
cate that on the whole Eastman
was the stronger of the two Cas-.
ter county candidates on the
Democratic state ticket, if we
judge their strength from the
standpoint of plurality against
them. On the other hand the
vote shows that Mackey secured
57S more votes than Eastham
did in spite of the fact that the
plurality against Mackey is 1886
greater than the plurality of
Cowles over Eastman.
The vote shows the result of
the special effort made by the
Democrats to defeat Governor
Sheldon and Railway Commis.
sioner Williams. 1t is on theee
two candidates that the Repnbl-
can managers claim that the
railroads and brewers united
efforts. The railroads desired to
punish Sheldon for his op
position to their dominating
state politics and the legislature
and Williams for work against
them on the railway commissions
and the brewers desired 10 de-
feat Sheldon because they
thought Shallenberger would bs
more favorable to the liquor
interests. This strong combi-
nation against Sheldon defeated
him by over $500 votes, while
Williams lost out by $50.
