OMAHA, Nov. 7.-The latest returns show a majority of five thousand against womans suffrage in spite of the belief of day or two ago that the people would vote in favor of it.

GERMANS EMPTY NORTH SEA

LONDON, Nov. 7-The recent raid made by the Ger man fleet to point on the English coast off Yarmouth IS now known not to have been by any means the total lot of the activities of the German ships in the North Sea- Indeed the people of England feel that the enemy has now some plan of most sinister kind to attack not only the British fleet but the British coast and this belief IS borne out bv the fact that mines have been strewn so pentu all over the North Sea that fishing boats pick some of them up in their nets So great the number ot the mines all over that sea that Dutch fishermen have aban

E. c. OWENS GROWS
LATEST BERRIES

With snow covering a portion of his
ranch, which lies beyond Bald Butte,
&C. Owens has been marketing straw
berries later than any other grower in
the valley. Because Of the high alti-
tude, perhaps higher than any other
berry patch in the state, his fruit has
ripened TO an enormous size and has
been sold for excellent prices by the
Apple Growers Association, through
which the fruit has been shipped. Most
of the 600 crates of fruit shipped by
the skyline rancher have reached the
3-3 and "A size.
The first crate Mr.. Owens picked sf-
ter July was sold for sll and the next
25 for S. apiece to Portland hotel.
All of the remainder Of the berries
have been sold through the Association.
Ii required Mr.. Owens an entire day
to make the round trip to his nearest
station, 0dell, when his crop first be-
gan to mature, but now that he has cut
a new road, he can make the round trip
in five hours. The variety of berries
grown is Clark Seeding.

PALMER INVENTS
sizing MACHINE

". G. Palmer, who had a practical
sizing machine on the market last
year, has invented a new machine, in
cooperating an idea not before used in
apple sizers. Two grades are provided
for, the apples being placed in a space
between canvas belts. The belts, run
ming on wooden stats that are inclined
and that gradually separate. size the
apples accurately. The new machine.
which is simple and comparatively in
expensive. may be operated with an
electric motor Of one-thirtieth Of a
horse power.
The boards on which the belts run
are adjustable and can be set to size
cherries or pumpkins.
Mr.. Palmer is demonstrating his new
machine in the Sproat building on Oak
street.

A number of the residents of the
city will no doubt recall the following
amusing episode of several years ago:
William CANCER, now located at Bull
Run. was night officer in the city. As
he was standing on Oak street talking
to friends "A man came up from the
old O. r. Il N. passenger station and
told him that a COW was mired in one
of the sloughs north of the city.
Better get several men and come
along so we can get the brute out, ."
said the informant, "she is bawling
something awful down there.
Mr.. Ganger got together posse to
20 and rescue the COW. Sure enough,
they could hear the animal moaning
and groaniug and mooing down in the
Iungles. Mr.. Ganger lead the way.
As they approached closer to the
scene. the noise suddenly stopped.
They could not even hear any struggles
Of the mired COW.
''She must be dead, " someone NUT
tered And then, as MIR. Ganger shined
his lantern around bush on the slough
side, big bull frog plunked from the
bank into the water and left rippes on
the water as he disappeared.
"Don I tell anybody" said MIR. Gan.
ger, "but there goes our cow"

While wandering on the beach at

a meal, cane strutting by, and spying
the crab stopped and proceeded to
make an investigation. After walking

cooked first on one side and then the
other-well, you know just how this
foxy bird does he walked up little
closer. reached over and grave the'crab
a little peck. Then he grew bolder,
jumped on the crab and gave harder
peck But that was too much for the
crab, who threw out his grabhoOks and
caught the crow by the leg, and the
fun was on. The crow squawked and
squaWked, and danced on one foot while
the crab held fast to the other. Then
he squawked some more, and tapped
his wings and squawked until he had
all the crows in the flock squawking,
and finally released himself, too badly
injured to fy.sand went hopping away
on one foot. The crab made fine
salad for the gentlemen's dinner.

Have you ever been out in the deep
and virgin woods on the head warters
of the Lake Branch and West Fork?
Have you ever heard the song of the
breeze as it rustles the evergreen
noughs? Have you ever stood on a
moss-covered boulder beside the cas-
cading waters of the mountain stream?
Have you ever participated in bit Of
earthly paradise? Then you will never
forget the days of those fishing trips,
when the trout bite readily and when
you have been so busy at noontime that
you fail to think Of lunch, even forget
to renew your quid of tobacco. And so
swiftly has the bright day passed that
the lengthening shadows recall you
from occupation. A comfortable sense
of WEAKNESS steals over you as you
trudge home through the rhododendron
brakes and thickets of DEVILS Walking
Sticks. You and your partner clean
the firm beauties that you have taken
from the cool pools. The slices of
bacon sputter over the hot Goals, and
the grease bubbles in the frying pan.
Your appetite was never better, A
sense of hunger, the possession Of
which is a luxury, gnaws away at you,
and oh. how good those crisp fish taste
And the cotfee-.no more delicious bev-
erage was ever bTeWed.
The meal over you stretch your heels
to the glowing fire; for it is always
cool in the evening. Pipes glow and
the aroma of the burning tobacco in
termingIes with the balsam smell of
the forest; and you and your compan-
ions lose the veneer that the every day
intercourse of a business world may
have thrown around you.
You look into the fire and off in the
darkness and see pictures that it was
never possible for you to behold before.
Your real self comes to the front. You
have returned to nature.

TO THE VOTERS OF PRoWERs
COUNTY,

AS you ore probably aware, l
am the Republican candidate for
Commissioner of the End district
of Prowers County.
On accepting this nomination
and asking you for your support,
| stand on my record as a busi-
ness man. In the last five years
/ have closed over 200 real estate
deals in Prowers County, and no
one can even intimate that l have
ever misrepresented a piece of
property.
The Burr T. Beachel Realty Co.
is incorporated under the laws of
the State of Colorado. The capt.
tai stock is paid in full and is in
vested in Prowers County land.
We are now interested in SUBJ
dividing the old Graham ranch
into small we'll irrigated tracts,
and if we are successful in this
undertaking. it will put Prowers
county on a new basis.
/ am a strong advocate of the
Homesteaders and believe dry
farming a success, when it is car
ried on in connection with dairy
farming, poultry and stock rails
ing.
While am not an old resident
of Prowers County, | will say
that q years of my life has been
spent in Wisconsin, the most pro-
gressive dairy state in the country
and as Prowers County's great
est resource is the dairy business,
feel that am qualified to help
promote this resource.
If Prowers County ever enjoys
the prosperity it should, it will
come through the legitimate
development of it's real estate.
| have had 18 years of experience
in this line of work.
l regard the office of County
Commissioner as being a very
important one and think anyone
elected to the office should be
qualified to help promote the re-
sources of the county.
If / am elected on November
3rd, / will encourage these four
things: Good business and legiti-
mate development; Good roads
and better Prowers County.
Sincerely yours,
Burr T. Beachel.
Republican candidate for county
commissioner End district Of
