Because the Legislature failed to be speci-
flc in regard to applying central or noun
tain time TO the s o'clock closing. North
Platte, McCook and Long Pine find them
selves up against a proposition, and at
North Platte the matter has become seri-
Gus to a certain extent. At these places
time changes and persons going through
the towns have to reset their watches to
keep up.
Recently at North Platte the city Off
cials issued q proclamation to adopt the
central time standard. Now a petition has
been circulated calling upon the officials
to designate mountain time. Mountain
time is an hour earlier than central time
and IL the former standard is adopted the
saloons may remain open an hour later
at night than under the present standard
Of time. No report has been received at
the state house regarding the matter at
