A force of men were put to work

In parts of the state flood cOndi-

DENVER, Aug. 20.--The Platte
river last night again overfowed its
banks in the lOWlands of West Den

causing great apprehension Of ans

However. the people living in the
bottom lands had plenty of warning
and succeeded in moving their be-
longings away from the path of the
flood.
The railroad situation south and
west of Denver shows distinct i'm

are subsiding rapidly and present in

covery of their schedule by all the

John Hancock.

A series of small forgeries, covering a
period of six months and involving many
grocery stores, saloons and other business
houses, is alleged against Jim Collins, the
man arrested Saturday by Patrolman Con-
nelly and Borto after Fred Amburst, a
grocer at Twenty-third and Vinton streets,
had cashed a check for him. The assistant
county. attorney has already found several
cases against the man and has drawn UP
complaints on them. He will probably file
them in police court Tuesday morning.

the police, while Collins secured the change
from a IS check at the Amburst grocery
Saturday after buying a pound of butter.
The other amounts were also small.

''The practicabllity of zionism lie not

a lecture Sunday evening to the zionists
of Omaha. "zionism has accomplished
more for the Jewish nation in the ten or
twelve years Of its modern existence than
any other movement of the past. It has
caused Jewry through the world to awaken
and see what is about 1t. II has been the
factor which has brought about unity in
a measure where none existed. ZIonism
has shown the world that Jew is not yet
dead, nor Is he ready TO die. That he Is
stilI alive and that the flag which has
been packed away for so many centuries
is not yet surrendered, but that II shall
wave once more undor the heavens OF a

been so mistreated throughout the cent

ON BALLOT BY PARTY
Candidates for Excise Board and City
Engineer Win Out.
JUDGE REDICK DECIDES CASE
C0urt Holds statute Involved Must
BE Construed Literally and In
tent of Legislature Must
he Considered.

The names of the men nominated by the
republican and democratic city committees
for the Board of Fire and Police Commits
sioners and city engineer will go upon the
ballot as party candidates.
Judge Redick granted Saturday morning
the mandamus against City Ciers Butler
prayed for by the candidates chosen by
the committees.
Judge Redick declared that the statute
involved must be construed literally and
that, first OF all, 1t must be held that 1t
was the plain intent or the legislature in
providing for primary elections not to de-
prive political parties OF the right to
nominate candidates. Vacancies in the Of
fees In question. occurred as soon as the
law was enacted making these offices cleo
tive. The law provides that vacancies in
a party ticket occurring after a primary
election shall be filled by the city or
county or state committed as the case
may be.
Now, the actual voting at the primary
occurred after the law making the offices
elective had been passed. The court held
that IL the failure TO nominate by either
party at the primary had been In default
or omission through negligence. then the
city committees would have no right to
act, for the law speaks only OF vacancies
after q primary.
How TO Construe the Law.
Since there IL a thirty-day provision with
regard to filing for primary nomination
and since this dates back of the day the
legislature enacted the law, Che primary,
said Judge Redick, must be understood to
have been begun thirty days previous u
the day voting was actually done. Inter
pretlng the law this way Il leaves vacancie
in party tickets not filled by the voting q
the primary. which vacancies the city com
mittees have the right to fiji.
When Judge Redick had ruled granting
the fnandamus which orders the city clerk
to place on the official ballot the names
OF the ten Candidates in question, the
point was raised as to whether the name,
so on the voting machine or on an add
tional printed ballot. The court did no
declare himself on Che question. 1t wal
not set forth in the petition for a man
damus.
City Attorney BurDam and Deputy Attor
ney Dunn have declared that the machine
will not Include the names OF all the forty
sight candidates for the Board of FIRE and
Police commissioners
In this they are mistaken as matter Of
fact. 1t Is not likely that the names OF
the party candidates will go on the ma
chine and the independents on the bal-
lot, and the city con mittees are insisteni
that those who wish 10 vote a straight
ticket, either on the machine or entirely

FOREIGN BUYING OF COTTON.
Surprise Expressed at Amount Going
To European Mills.

Boston, Oct. 16.-Considerable sur
prise is being evinced among Amer
lean cotton mill treasurers at the
present enormous volume of cotton
exports. which are going to the mills
OF Europe. and particularly to Eng
land. at time when the Americans
have not entered the market to any
extent for their new supplies of the
staple. Exports since September l
have been larger than in either Of the
last two years, total of $4,000 bales
this year comparing with $4,000
bales for the same period of last year
and 621. 900 bales for the same period
OF 1907.
Considering that foreign mills are
In a much worse position than those
in this country and have. in fact,
been curtailed to about 8 per cent Of
capacity for some weeks, II is a ques-
tion whether these exports represent
recent purchases Of cotton at prevail
ing high prices. IT is good opinion
that they rather represent deliveries
on contracts made earlier i'm the year,

Knew It's True Value.

Sylvester long, of Dayton, O., tells
this story Of some commercial friends
of his:
A customer who bought In a small
way from the wholesalers and whose
credit was not of the sort known as
gilt-edged, visited the city and pur-
chased a $2,SOO bill of goods, paying
$2,500 in cash and giving his note for
the remaining $500.
AFTER the transaction had been
closed and the paper and currency
had canged hands the customer said:
Now. after deal of that size it
is customary to give the purchaser a
present. Come across with it,"
We'll throw in a pair of suspend
ers," laughed the salesman, tempor-
izingly.
"A pair of suspenders, eh! Say
quit fooling. I really mean it. ex-
pect you to do something in acknowl-
edgment of my patronage"
The salesman went to the manager
with the problem and the manager
said:
well. If he feels that way about it
we might encourage him a bit. Well
do something that ought to please
him greatly. Give him back his 5000
note. Make him present of his pa
per. That will make him a cash GUS
toner. raise his credit and save him
money besides"
The salesman went back, pleased
to be the bearer of such joyful tidings
of liberality in busienss.
well. SIR" he said, we've arrang-
ed about that present, all right.

The customer did not seem enthu-

the note, he asked:

at lower prices, to mills which "hedg-
ed" at that time.
Notwithstanding this view. it Is no
secret that the present situation is
causing considerable disappointment
among American mills, which were
unquestionably depending on a small
foreign demand to make for some
what lower prices for the staple this
fall. Many mills in the South and
also in New England have already
come to the end OF their supplies of
the old crop. and are now buying
from hand to mouth for their current
needs. Few, if any mills, however,
are stocking up for next years busf-
