THREE TICKETS AT BROKEN BOW
Municipal Campaign Promises to b
Lively One.

MuntclpAl campaign promises TO he
a Lively One.
BROKEN BOW. Neb., March 12.-(spe-
cial.) Much interest is being taken in the
city election this year owing to the fact
of there being many important matters
to come before the new administration and
in all probability three tickets will be
placed in the field. Whether It will be a
party campaign, outside Of the socialist
ticket, will probably be settled at the COM
ing citizens caucus.
Several well known local men are being
put forward for the office Of mayor,
among the most prominent being j. C.
Bowen, a leading business man. Mr..
Bowen held this office several years ago
and the chances are his name will head
one of the tickets. Other names men
toned are those Of Councilman d. c.
Konksl and DIR. r. B. Mullins, although
Mr.. Konkel has already stated his prefer
ence through the columns Of local paper
for the aldermanio chair to that Of mayor
The present incumbent, Mayor Dan Rock
well, will probably not allow his name to
be used for denomination.
The socialists have already held their
caucus and nominated full city ticket as
follows e. Taylor, mayor; c. o. G. Boyce
city clerk; j. o. A. Thomas treasurer;
for. councilman, first ward, c. e, Shepard
second ward, J. G. Painter; third ward
Lee Adams; fourth ward, J. w. Lanter-
man and John Delane. The campaign will
be conducted along the line OF municipal
ownership on the Milwaukee plan. The
socialists are expressing great confidence
and claim they will elect their mayor and
three out Of the six councilmen.

SOUTHEASTERN HAS
 VERY GREAT RACE

Anniston, June 7.-lSpecial )-Without exception big lea rue scouts who have been lowering around the Southeastern circuit and baseball fans and bugs in general who have paid attention to the race that Gadsden, Decatur Rome, Selma and Huntsville concede that it is the prettiest exhibition that is being afforded of the national game now in the United States of America.
 No one has undertaken to set forth the assertion that the Southeastern league is the fastest company In the United States, although it is asserted that the league is equal to almost any Class B organization extant and 50 per cent stronger than it was last year; and that 1t is furnishing the most interesting games in any league now playing because of the comparative equality in strength of the several clubs composing the circuit and of the com parative size and proximity of the com ponent cities.
 While the league is now strong, not a club in the league is resting on its oars. On the contrary, every manager is on the tiptoe in the lookout for men to fill the few weak places that have survived the pruning season. In securing Red Tom Fisher, the Southern league veteran, Anniston took great forward stride, and ever since he has been at the head of this city it has lowered around the top rung of the percentage ladder An niston also got good man In Chic Hannon of Alabama fame. and in Eu- banks, the South Atlantic utility man. Davidson, the former Mercer star, and Booze Jones of Alabama are two college Gadsden manager, King Bailey, having also signed Milford, who managed Rome last year, and who has just been released by Charleston. Dorsey Is also starring for Bailey. It is said that Shortstop Reed and Pitcher Refs of Rome have been of fered berths with the St. Louis Nation als, who also have hooks out for Wasem of this place. Decatur and Huntsville have almost entirely new teams, while May and Howard of Selma are strength ening materially after their sensational toboggan slide, Vasterlitz. their new out fielder, giving great promise, in addition to Dr. Robinson, the ex-Southern league twfrer.
 In so far as known, all of the teams are in the salary limit, and upon this point depends the future of the league. Gam bling also is being tabooed by every town in the circuit and nothing but clean sport will be tolerated.

Chattanooga. June 7.--tSpecial) )-In a huge farcical travesty upon the na- tional pastime the Barons came out at the long end of swatfest at Andrews Field this afternoon. The final count was IS to 12.

 The Barons scored once in the first
  gle In the second came two more when Yantz singled and Elliott drove the first ball offered over the leftfield fence. The Lookouts garnered two in their half. Northern doubled and scored on Murch's triple and the latter tallied on Nills single.
 In the third the Barons began a earn age that was fearful to behold, totaling nine runs before they were finally re- tired. Molesworth first up lined to Sentell, but Phean singled to center. Mcbride singled and Phean took third, the former going to second on the peg to the three quarters sack. McGilvray grounded to Lister, but Phean beat the throw to the plate.

The two then started another double steal when Higgins threw wild to second McBrde scored and Johnston went to third Yantz walked. Elliott grounded to Lister and the latter threw wild to the plate. Johnston scoring, Yantz going to third and "Rowdy" to second. Trough singled and Yantz and Elliott scored. Marcan doubled to left, and Trough scored, Marcan going to third on the throwing.
