House After Urging by Friends.

Randolph, Neb, Nov. 16-John
Kuhl. reelected to the house of repre-
sentatives of the state legislature for
the third successive term, has an.
nounced himself candidate for speak.
er of that body during the coming
session. The announcement of his
candidacy comes in response to the
urgent petition of friends, not only in
Cedar county, but all over Nebraska.
The boom Tor Representative Kuhl
was started as soon as it was known
that he had filed for reelection. Hav-
ing ascertaine1 that the next house
Is surely democratic he made an
nouncement OF his candidacy yester
day.
He was a member of both the 1907
sessions of the legislature, represent
ing the Nineteenth district consisting
of Cedar and Pierce counties. His
record has been so satisfactory to his
constituency in this district that each
time his reelection has been by an in
creased majority. This year it was
SIG. Local democrats are rejoicing to
learn of his candidacy and will make
a strong effort in his behalf to land
him in the speakers chair.
Mr.. Kuhl attained considerable
prominence by his hard work during
the session of 1907 when a republi
can majority controlled the house. AS
chairman of the committee on privi-
leges and elections and member of
several other important committees
during the last session he was re-
garded as one of the leaders of that
session of the legislature.
He was strongly urged two years

speakership, but refused at that time,
declaring that he preferred to gather
more experience through work on the

Winnetoon's Fire House.

Winnetoon Pioneer: The Winnie.
toon fire department, who were intend
ing to build hose house over the
pump station on the hill near the
standpipe, decided it would be more
convenient and much better for the
property interests to have it located
nearer the business section and the
bell tower. Last week a number of
the fire laddies pulled off their coats
and secured their hammers and saws
and proceeded to get busy. Contract
or Paulson engineered the work, and
the way the building went up would
be credit to most any bunch Of wood
butchers" The hose house was built
around the bottom of the tower. Di-
rectly north of the hose house fifty
foot incline about four feet wide was
built for drying the hose after being
used Yes. Winnetoon has fire de-
partment, waterworks, and well that
supplies all the water needed.

it was not set up right originally. The
automatic stoker is the part that has
been causing all the trouble, and this

taken down and reset several inches
lower than it now stands. When this
is done the expert announces, there

Chicago Garment Makers Strike Now
Seems Far From Settlement.

Chicago, Nov. 16.--Hopes of peace
in the garment workers strike faded
when the most of the large firms re-
fused to hear of any proposition that
in any way resembles a union. They
asserted they would not sign any con.
tract that recognizes the principle of
collective bargaining,
C0mmissary stores, each with pro-
visions for 800 Families, will be opened
in the localities where most of the
strikers live. The goods will be sort.
ed in parcels, each containing provi-
sions to last an average family three
days.
An effort is being made to have the
American Federation of Labor, now in
session in St. Louis, levy an assess
meht of two cents per capita on all
affiliated unions,
This would net the strikers about
$4,000.
