He. said tonight that the success of the democratic party depends largely on what 1t does between the present time and the next election, but that the outlook for electing a candidate is exceptionally favorable.
 While he would not say that it would be advisable or proper for the mayor to leave the city and make a fight for the govern orship, he declared that he would make an excellent executive. He pointed out Mir Gaynor's excellent record on the bench and at the city hall as strong rec ommenda tions and qualifications for his candidacy for governor.

The EXPECTED HAPPENED
NO HITCH IN THE NAMING OF
MOIST TICKET"
A Cut Dried, Featureless At
fair that Smeiled Strongly
of Booze and Bossism.

Tuesday night the "wets" met to
nominate city ticket. There was a
good attendance, and considerable in
terest manifested. The proceedings
passed off without the slightest
hitch Evidently, all Immediately
concerned, were well instructed as to
their particular duties. The usual
formulas were carried out and the
expected happened. 1t was all very
nice, and no doubt quite satisfact-
ory TO the leaders.
Major Keeling was rather hastily
renominated to succeed himself, by
acclamation. 1t appears that there
was other mayoralty timber avail
able and these and their friends took
righteous, though passive exception,
to the manner in which the mayor
was nominated There are those who
think Mayor Keeling might be i'm
proved upon; his best friends wish
ed, however, to give him another
chance-he might do better. CD
Robert Neitzel was renominated for
city treasurer. Mr.. Neitzel appears
to us a clever, decent official; TOO
good for the company he keeps.
Judge Spragins was nominated for
police judge, presumably upon the
strength Of his past record-it will
save the inconvenience of making
and change.
T. II. Towlo was nominated for city
engineer. Mr.. Towle and his fore
bears have large holdings in Falls
City and of course are anxious to
have one of their number represent
them officially.
Fred DeWald received scant
majority in the race of the city clerk
ship.
A. J. Loucks and J. &. Tanner We're
unanimously nominated to fill
the vacancies on the school board
For councilmen, Henry Gerdes
was nominated from the first ward,
r. A. Dittmar from the second. and
Max Hartman from the third. We re-
frain from making comment as to
the strength of this selection.

HORSE THIEVES AT WORK.
George Mauer Loses a. Valuable
Horse And Buggy.

The horse stealing epidemic bobs
up in Falls City as regular as the
smallpox scare, the only difference
being that smallpox does no porman-
ent injury. while the owner of the
horse or horses suffers permanent
injury or loss, for the horses are
seldom recovered.
Last Thursday night the beautiful
bay driving horse belonging to Geo.
Mauer, together with his rubber tired
buggy were stolen from his barn.
There are reasons to believe the
theft was made about ten O'Clock
Thursday night, though 1t was not
known until seven n. IN. Friday Sher-
iff Fenton was Immediately called
and after almost an hours delay in
getting off, he. with his party, fol
lowed n fine trail almost into Hia
watha, but owing TO the constant
travel on the roads, n false trail was
followed into a mans barn yard
From lliawatha a trail was follow
ed 10 Willis, Kas., and also to Hor-
ton. but We're indstnct and not much
faith was attached To them. At
Hiawatha, the sheriff of Brown eoun-
ty, and his deputy, joined Sheriff Fen
tons party in their own automobile
and in every way assisted Mr. Fen
ton in the man chase
Telephone and telegraph messages,
with description cards had to be
resorted TO and though there was
no definite information secured, Sher-
if Fenton feels he has secured plen-
ty 10 work upon. He Is of the opin-
ion that this bunch of horse thieves
have confedorates in and around the
city The sheriff is very positive
in his statement that those in this
town are under surveillance and
will surely be landed in a short time.

A Pleasant Surprise.

pie unexpectedly invaded the par

surprise However, they meant well
and instead of sacking the place and
leaving it a waste spot as their for
eien tcrbears were wont to do in
GOOD cid times so often referred to,
they left trail of good things and
pleasant memories behind them.
There were good things galore. The
sturdy tables groaned and the
capacious closets bulged. The
high price of foodstuffs will not
disturb the quiet of Brother Nan
ningas slumbers for some time to
come Rev Nanninga has out
standing invitation for them to re-
turn. There are other doors NO
doubt whose latch string is also out.

COMMUNICATED.
DR.. Greene Presents a Few Words
of Explanation.

TO The Tribune:-I wish to call
the attention of the Falls City News
to the article published in their is
sue of March 3, in regard to the
fee charged by me in the Shaw
case which was settled in court last
month. The News stated that it was
the largest fee ever paid in the
county for an operation. But the
News neglected to state that it was
The largest operation ever perform
ed by local surgeon; also that
the $500 charged was not for the
operation alone, but for very small
part of it; the major part being
for care prior to the operation and
for five weeks after care, which
took the greater part of my time, as
the patient was in a very critical
condition, and also for the assisting
surgeon, for whose charges | stood
responsible.
At the request of Mrs Henry Shaw
| neglected some of my good patients
who live in the country, and who pay
their doctor bill. l was urged to give
my undivided attention to this case
The cost was not to be considered, if
only the life of their daughter-in-law
could be saved.
The News stated that if the full
amount of the judgment had been
allowed it would have been the
largest fec ever paid in the county.
Now as matter of fact it was not
one-half as much as fees that have
been paid, Talking with Mr. Thack-
er, who run the Muddy Greek mill
until recently, he told me that he
paid $400 to a Kansas City sur
geon for AN operation for appendi-
citis, and 500 to DR.. Miner for at
tending the patient and $50 to DR..
Fast for assisting in the operation,
and $35 to the nurse and had the
care of the patient at his own home;
besides, the patient only lived three
days after the operation. The en-
tire time the patient was being car
ed for was only ten days and his
total bill for the ten days was $5S5,
and the results fatal
The News also states that Mr.
Henry Shaw paid other bills which
would run the fun amount to about
$500 | wish to state here that Mr.
Shaw paid Miss Jessie Jones, the
nurse, $72; Mrs, Hattie Snidow $42;
Mert Mcclure $12 for transportation
from Salem to hospital in an auto
mobile; and about 81 for alcohol.
Does this figure any where near
$500?
wish also to state that Mr..
Thacker paid his bill like man
and did not make the attending
physician sue him. Neither did
he try to get out of paying it or
try to palm it off on some one from
whom he knew they could not col
lect it. j. NJ. GREENE, NJ. ID.

Ridinu For a Tumble. l..

City Friday, having an important
case in Judge Barton's court. Mr..
Reayis is quoted as saying he is glad
Bryan has come out for county op-
tion, as it is the right stand to take
for democrats as well as republicans
and everybody else The arrogance
of the whiskey interests is as certain
to prove their undoing in this state
as it has in others, and if not coun-
ty option this year, then prohibition
next or the year after 1t was the
bull-headedness of railroads in politics
that threw their men and threw them
hard in Nebraska, and the fellows
who are managing booze matters
without regard for any other rights
are riding for the same sort of an
unexpected tumble And that's what
they viii get sooner or later, prob
ably sooner.-Pawnee Republican.
