KEARNEY, Neb.. Nov. 19.-(Special.)-
Adjutant General Hartigan was in the
city Wednesday and Thursday for the pur-
pose Of Strengthening out matters con-
nected with Company A, First regiment,
Nebraska National guard. For some time
pas There has been some pending action
connected with this company and the gen
eral has had his eyes on It in a rather
suspicious manner. Today he stated to a
correspondent that the affairs OF the COM
pany had been handled during the last
six months in a poor manner and that
the conditions were rotten Fiv thou
dollars worth OF equipment belong
ing to the state had been abused and
neglected until there will be a $500 loss
suffered. The discipline Of the men has
disappeared entirely and the company will
be mustered out Of service unless the bust
ness men OF the city take immediate
action.
Company A has not been living up to
its traditions for some time. At one time
this company was one Of the star COM
panies Of the regiment General Hartgan
attributes some OF the fault on the late
captain OF the company, who has held a
commission while absent from the state
for six and eight months at a time. He
also states that the majority OF the mem
bers were not acceptable should g new
company be organized.

Recount May De- Asked.

SEWARD. Neb., Nov. 1S.-(speciaI)-As
a result Of the narrow margin between
Charles f. Morefield, republican, and VIII
liam Grots. democratic candidate for
county treasurer, at the last election, the
democratic county central committee was
called 10 meet here yesterday with other
democrats to taiS OF a possible recount Of
votes. The unofficial returns gave MT.
Morefield a majority OF twenty-one. but
the official canvass reduced this 10 four
teen. To recount the ballots the pro-
ceedings must be started in the county
court, and the ballots would have to be
recounted in the presence OF the county
Judge, who would decide how each ballot
should be counted. This would be Just
as likely to increase MT Morefield's
majority as to wipe 1t out. The demo-
cratic county central committee decided
to permit Mr.. Grots. the democratic de-
feated candidate to decide whether a
recount would be asked for.

Elk Mayor Brown
of Lincoln May
Rival Dahlman
Friends of S~hallenberger Urging Him
to Be Candidate for Senator +
in Bryan's Place.
From a staff Correspondent


LINCOLN, Nov. 19.-(Speoial.)-Some
of these bright. beautiful mornings Mayor
Dahlman is going to wake up and find a
competitor in his race for the democratic
nomination for governor in the person of
former Mayor F. w. Brown of Lincoln. At
least that's the way It looks to those who
nave been watching the antics of the
former executive of the capital city.
And about the same time Judge Edgar
Howard is going to wake up and find his
pet senatorial candidate, w. H. Thomp-
son, has competition in Governor Ashton
c. S-hallenberger.
Mayor Brown will not come out for gov
ernor unless the governor announces for
senator, and that is what friends OF the
former mayor are trying to get Governor
Sh~allenberger TO do.
Governor Shallenberger has been told by
some of the biggest democrats in Ne
braska that he should run for the senat,
regardless of Mr.. Bryan's statement-with-
a~-string-to-it that he will not be a can
didate. Friends OF both the governor and
Mayor Brown are of the opinion that If
the name OF Bryan is filed as a candidate
at the last minute he Will be forced to
decline TO run or he will be defeated for
the nomination.
~ h61 bINA VI aROh
beI ger that he should at once announce his
candidacy. for the senate, prefacing the
announcement with the statement that he
would prefer to support Mr.. Bryan, but
that the latter must be taken at his word
and left out OF the race. Should the gov
ernor do this his friends insist Mr.. Bryan
could not, will very good grace, ever per
nit his friends to run him for the place.
As an argument to get the governor into
the senatorial race 1t has been put up to
him that II he is defeated for governor II
viii forever end him as a senatorial posi-
bility, so II he desires OF take a shot at
it now is the accepted time.
That Mayor Brown could easily be per
suaded to get into the race for governor
there is no doubt and that he and the
governor have discussed the possibilities
repeatedly there is every evidence to be-
lieve. There is no NOR frequnt visitor to
the office OF the governor than the former
mayor. In fact, he calls almost daily and
he and the governor spend much time in
cor ultation SO IL the governor announces
for senator the mayor will announce for
governor.
