lieves he will be nominated, will be on
the scene early, while Treasurer George
Secretary Of States Wait and Auditor
carton expect to get there In time for
the opening. Neither of these gentlemen
as yet has received tickets to the con-
vention, but somehow SCENE to feel that
they will be able to get in and occupy
at least a seat on the bleachers, II
nothing better.
Auditor Barton. who has been nomi-
mated In the Fifth district on the re-
publican ticket to fill Congressman
Norris shoes, says he is going down to
Chicago to shout for Roosevelt and the
manner in which he waved his arms
around when he said 1t indicated that he

Thompson Files Complaint.
f. $. Thompson. president of the AL
| bion Commercial club. has filed with the
railway commission a complaint against
the Union Pacific Railway company. He
complains that the railway service be-
tween the capital city of Boone county
and Columbus is poor and insufficient
He asks that the commission look into
the matter and see IL the present service
cannot be made better and motor car
put OH in addition. He also sets forth
that the depot at Albion is not up to date
and that something should be done to
give Albion a depot that will be a credit
to that city Albion very recently ap-
peared before the commission with a like
request regarding train service and in
adequate depot privileges on the North
western at that place. but as yet the old
service stands and the old depot declines
to give way 10 something more modern.
State Cash Coming In.
The condition OF the state finances have
picked up the past week and instead of
showing a deficiency of about $4,000, as
1t did June !, there is now something
over $4,000 to the good and more COM
ing. This condition of things was
brought about mostly by remittances
from Douglas county of $1,000; Otoe
county $4,000, and Platte county, $l3,4ss.
The remittances will probably continue
now in such amounts that all state war
rants presented can be paid. Only once
during the year has the treasurer been
compelled to refuse payment.
Bonds Registered.
A big bunch of bonds were registered
in the auditors office Saturday after
noon. They were the school district
bonds of the Lincoln High school and
amounted to $a5O.0Oo. They take the place
of the same amount Of bonds which were
received short time ago, but which
were declared Illegal on account of an
error in the printing.
