Majority of Two Would
Be Wiped Out.

wYMoRE, Neb., April S.-Cspecial)-
At a special council meeting a strenuous
effort was made to have the votes or the
wet or dry question r~ecounted. Adam NC
Mullen appeared before the council and
gave his opinion TO the effect that the
council had a perfect right to recount the
vote in question. 4 resolution giving the
mayor power to get the ballots and have
them recountrd was passed. two council
men voting for 1t, two against 1t, and the
mayor for It. Mayor Rawlings instructed
the clerk TO get the ballots and bring
them to the council room, but Clerk Han
sen fatty refused to do so, and read a
letter he had received that day from the
city attorney, In which was the statement
hat the clerk will be liable to indict-
ment should he allow the ballots to be
tempered with. Thereupon Mayor Rawl-
ings took Night Watch Hatch and started
toSthe First National bank, where the bal
lots are stored In the vaults. He returned
inaa few minutes and stated that the bank
refused to turn the ballots over to him
he promised to have the ballots at coun-
cit meeting next Wednesday night and
have them recouuted then, and council
adjourned.

Money to Help

Law is Raised
Victor Wilson Sounds Call to Dem
ocrats Of State to Assist At
torney General,
lrrom a staff Correspondent.l.

LINCOLN, April W.-(Special.)-Victo
Wilson, several times spoken of as
democracy's next candidate for governor,
has broken into the limelight by issuing
a circular letter to the bankers of the
state asking them to contribute to a fund
to employ lawyers to assist the attorney
general in unfolding the legality OF the
banking law passed by the late legisla-
ture.
This is the first time any one ever
started a fund to employ counsel to help
Attorney General Thompson try any case,
though the legal department OF the state
OF Nebraska has won some of the most
notable victories OF any state in the union.
The action of Mr.. Wilson. calls atten-
ton to the fact that the legislature APP
propriated $500 to employ ian attorney TO
draft the banking law andohAd there been
foresight instead of hindsight In the mat
ter, the contract would rave contained a
clause for the attorney to follow up the
work by establishing the constitutionality
of the law in the courts.
Mr.. Wilson's action is due to. the state
ment that the executive committee OF the
bankers association has decided to fight
the law In the courts. In his appeal to
the bankers Mr.. Wilson says:
You have doubtless been made aware
of the fact through the press that the
executive committee OF our state bank
ers' association is fathering a gigantic
and bitterly hostile attack in the courts
upon the guaranty bank deposit law duly
enacted in pursuance Of the peoples YER
dict at the last election. l am not adverse
to, and on the contrary favor, the early
settlement OF the constitutionality of the
new legislation. but I believe the con-
testants of the measure unequivocally de-
manded by public opinion should conduct
themselves in a friendly rather than hos
tile spirit"
Mr., Wilson said the ablest counsel
money could employ would be hired to
fight the law. He issued his appeal, he
said, after a consultation with the COVER.
nor and the attorney general, both Of
whom endorsed his plan.
In the appeal is a copy OF a letter from
II. A, Olerich, vice president of the bank
of Boyd county. to Mr.. Wilson. This let.
ter asks Mr.. Wilson by what authorit,
the executive committee of the state bank
ers' association took its action and he en-
closed a draft for $40 to start a fund I,
employ counsel to help the attorney gen
eral.
