A Startling Discovery.

The Hastings Republican, which
carries a misnomer because Il is a
rank democratic paper, has discovered
the moving source from which the in
lection of the liquor question into cur
rent political strife emanates. "It is
al plain as the nose on a mans face"
declares the democratic Republican,
that the trusts, the corporations and
special interests are encouraging polit-
ical strife on the one issue of county
option for the purpose Of confusing
and binding the voters-to get them
to concentrate their attention more on
this one Issue and pay less attention
to those greater questions Of Canon
ism and the trusts" 1t tells us the
danger is that the people who want to
vote against 1.-THE trusts, corporation
greed, tariff robbery and special privi-
lege'~will be hoodwinked and
blinded" by the interests into forget
fulness "in a maddened contest over
county option" THIS reads pretty
well, and there may be more truth
than poetry in It. But, If so, what
about the proclaimed determination Of
Colonel Bryan to commit the demo-
Gratis Of Nebraska to county option?
Is Mr.. Bryan a spokesman of "the in
terests," or merely being used by them
to accomplish their nefarious purpose?
If that was their purpose, "the inter
ests' must have welcomed the advent
Of such an adept and experienced
"hoodwinker."

Using a hatpin for weapon with which she sought to prevent officers Wiley and Barry from placing her in cell at the city jail, Josephine Hill lis, a 16-year-old girl, last night brought to a continuation period of dissipation which came near costing her the valuable diamonds and jewell ry she possessed.
 The young woman is said to be from a prominent and wealthy family in Missouri, and her mother has been telegraphed for, and will probably ar rive this afternoon to take charge of the girl In the meanwhile she occu- pies a berth in the city jail, with strict orders that she not be released on bond, but held until the officers may turn her over to relatives. The girl is said to have come here several weeks ago. and under the per l sonal chaperonage of a woman pay sician was believed to have been get ting along nicely, but 1t is apparent she had been deludng her chaperone about her whereabouts when away from their hotel, and the police had one former experience with the girl which was saved from publicity by the intervention of local club at fache. who paid a cash guarantee to the city to get her out.
 In connection with the arrest of the girl two men were arrested also. One is registered as Monte Carlo and is said to he connected with some hotel, while the other is NJ. F. Fer guson. They were held on drunk and disorderly charges.
 The woman had a wealth of fine diamonds and jewelry and the ori- eers believe their prompt arrest of her caused much of this to have been saved, as she would have dissipated 1t had she gone further. The men were said to have engaged in fight over the woman, who, it appeared, preferred to divide her attentions, which, as usual, pleased neither suit or, and as they were drinking. precip- itated the row

GAME WAS FAST THROUGHOUT BUT AT LAST LITTLE ROCK

Play Was Clean and There Were But Seven Fouls in the Entire Game
 Score 3e to 13.

Thirtynine to 13 was the decisive score that the local high school de- feated the Little Rock College by last night in basket ball.
 The game was fast and interesting in the first half, and for the first eight minutes neither side scored, until Hot Springs committed a foul and Little Rock scored one point by pitching a basket The game looked bad for the locals for the next five minutes, until Sauls threw goal.
 After the first ten minutes of play the Little Rock players showed fa- tigue and time was called The Hot Springs boys reaped the harvest of the steady practice that they have kept up for the past two months and played as fresh at the end of the game as they did in the beginning Philip North, an untried player in the game, this being his first year at it, proved star by his quick. steady work and many points were gained by his good work.
 About the middle of the first half the localf orwards became unerrng In their aim and the locals score crept up until 1t had doubled the Little Rock figures, and at the close of the first half the score stood 19 to g.
 The other half was easy for the locals for the Little Rock team acted as though they were exhausted by the hard, fast playing that they were met with. The game was clean through out there being but seven fouls com. mitted by the two teams.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-Freieht
tariffs showing considerable increase
over the present rates from western
territory to the Atlantic seaboard will

Tor the transportation of wool from
Minneapolis and st. Paul to New York
present rate on wool from Minnea polls
to New York is SO cents per 100 pounds.
Under the provisions of the tariff the
rate will be 81 cents a hundred pounds.
an increase of nearly 20 per cent.
An increase also has been made in
the freight rate on live hogs between
the Twin Cities and Chicago of 2h
cents hundred pounds. This is an in
crease of about IL per cent over the
present rate.
While no tariff has been filed with
the commission increasing the rate on
wheat products from Chicago to eastern
territory. it seems likely the rate on
hog products from Chicago to eastern
points will be increased
The tariffs already filed with the
commission are for all the roads in
Western freight association territory
and the increase will become effective
simultaneously on all of them.

ton against him will be based on the

ling game. in Sausalito, as charged by
Abbott, he would thereby become a
principal with them in the commission
OF Whatever crimes they might have

inally liable for the robbery of young
Wood.
Abbott, while giving the full details
of the alleged connection of F1annery
with the bunko gang has consistently
refused to testify concerning the actual
operations of the gang in Sausafito
and has said nothing that could be
used against McSherry, with whom he
is still on the friendliest of terms
Abbott still credits his wife with hav-
ing induced him to make his confessions
concerning Flannery's alleged invita-
ton to the bunkomen to come to San
Francisco under the full protection of
the police department, and the subse-
quent dealings between Flannery and
himself and his companions. District
Attorney Boyd said yesterday that Alb
bolt had told him that prior to the time
he made the confession involving Elan
nery's name in the scandal, he could
have raised $4,000 for bail if neces-
sary, but that soon as F1annerys
name came out he was avoided like a
