He Stands for Strict Economy in Administra~

Where Do You Stand 2
Mr.. Shalenberger is successful business man,
stock grower and banker. He is in the prime of life
and combines energy and broad minded ability with
advanced and practical ideas of public affairs
thirty years Of his life have been spent in Ne
braska and his long residence has given him wide
knowledge Of people, their condition and needs
Though essentially worker and business man, he
is also recognized as one of the strongest public
speakers of the west
He represented the Fifth Nebraska District in
the 57th Congress with credit to himself and great
advantage to the state He took important part
in the enactment Of the national irrigation law,
which is doing SO much for western Nebraska.
In his campaign for the governorship two years
ago, he stood for definite and positive legislation
for the reduction of passenger freight and express
rates. The only relief the people have obtained
with respect to these matters mas been through the
two cent passenger rate law, the Aldrich maximum
freight rate law and the Sackett express rate law.
These laws result of his fight in that campaign
and the action of the fusion members Of the egisla
ture who forced them upon republican admins

None Of these measures were recommended by
Governor Sheldon, either in his campaign or his
message to the legislature. In fact Governor Shell
don opposed the two cent passenger rate law from
the time it suggested until after it was passed
and for while it was openly asserted that he
would refuse to sign it. But on the last day and
at the eleventh hour he gave it his approval not
however until the railroads had publicly announced
that they would accept the law.
Mr. Shallenberger favors law for the guaran-

oring that measure was prepared by himself and

American Miller. Anything passing
over the breast OF this dam will pass
OF smoothly and never come back
against H. There is no possible chance
for undermining from the pour OF the
water. The abutments at each end of
the dam are built OF stone and ce'
ment. and are high enough above the
crest to take the entire stream at the
time OF food. Filling with stone and
gravel under the sheathing and filling
with dirt on the upstream side puts
the weight well up stream and makes
IL perfectly secure.
The dam is built by sections, each
section completed and spiked together
and tapping the mud stills as done in
framing a barn. This dam is so tied
together that the entire structure would
have to all go at once to be washed
out
In building a dam the breast should
be set square with the stream, II pos

II will be seen from the sketch that
the drilling machine Is a very simple
AGAR. consisting essentially OF round
block OF wood about eight inches long
and eight inches in diameter. with an
iron band ring placed on the top and
bottom to prevent splitting. Through
its center and protruding about two
inches below Is smooth round
wooden shaft about one and one.fourth
inch I'm diameter and three feet in
length. Both ends OF this shaft are
protected from splitting by ring or
ferrule. The crossbar is a piece OF
wood about three inches wide. one
inch thick and three and one.half feet
long, having hole in the center large
enough to allow the bar to move cas-
lily up and down on the shaft and
shaped as shown. The ends Of the bar
may also be protected by ferrules. A
hole is bored in each end OF the bar
and also In the upper end Of the
shaft. Through these holes piece of
strong cord or rawhide is passed and
drawn tight. with bar standing
squared, about one inch above the
block. The cord is then secured from
slipping in the holes by means OF knot rs
and pegs driven in the holes. says toe
