Candidates for various county offices
have put their petitions in circulation, and
things politically will undoubtedly begin to
boil within the next few weeks.
Ex-mayors H. A. Miller ard p. K. Kenney
and Attorney j. W. Loree are circulating
their petitions in different parts OF the
county as candidate for the newly created
office of County Judge Of the Common Pleas
Court.
Deputy Sheriff George Betz and Ex-Mar-
shall VIII Pumphrey have their petitions
in circulation as candidates for sheriff.
j. b. Hasltnger, OF Ooldwater, is ctrcula-
ting his petition as candidate for Clerk of
Courts. Ben has made the race twice before
for the clerks Job, and while 1t is rumored
that there are several Others aching to get
into the race, 1t is more than probable that
Mr.. Haslinger will get off this time without
any lighting opposition. He has lost
couple of hard fights, and close ones, too,
but has been too good Democrat to let out
yelp.
The primary election law makes 1t neces-
sary that candidates of all political parties
desiring places on the primary ballot must
file petition with the Deputy State Super
visors OF elections. containing signatures of
qualified electors to the number of two per
cent. of the vote cast for Governor at the
last preceding election.
The official vote for Governor last year, in
the Republicans 1884. These figures make It
necessary that Democrats must have at
least rs qualified electors sign their petit
tions, and the Republicans must secure 20
on their petitions.

jecting to the placing Of Omaha IN tne
Kansas City district of the reserve

CLEAN BILL FOR PACKERS.
Government Agents Find No Monopoly
in Aroentina Beef Imports.

Chicago. April 9.-Threatened fed
eral suits against the so-calied Amer
lean beef trust to curtail ita activities
in the importation OF Argentina beef
will not he filed unless the agents or
the department OF justice are able to,
uncover more evidence to support the
charges. Packers have been accused
Of making contracts which gave them
a monopoly OF the industry. but so TAR
the department has been unable to
verify the allegations.
Investigation OF the contracts which
American packers have for refrigerat-s
ing space on steamships plying be-s
tween Argentina and the United States,
1t was said Wednesday. however. failed
to show anything unusual or in con-
travention Of the antitrust act.
So far as the department agents dis
covered, the American packers exer-
cised only the ordinary business cau-
ton In making these contracts for
refrigerniiuH space on steamships, and
have not laid themselves liable TO PROS
ecuton. 1t was the first idea OF the
department that the American com.
panies had monopolized the steamship
refrigerating space and that an anti
trust suit could be hinged upon this.
II seemed unlikely that the depart
ment would find any ground for at
tacking the packers on tho score OF
their interest In Argentina. atho the
investigation is not complete. Recent
reports to tho department CT asricui-
ture showed that about 5000. 900
pounds Of beef are imported monthly

According to these reports there ara

adjustments In Argentina, Of which

the wife lived for about an hour. Under
the conditions Of the will and the SUR
rounding circumstances both estates
were concentrated in Mrs. Zwilling for
the hour which intervened between
their deaths. but there -.s no pro-
vision for what really did happen. the
sudden demise Of both. That the real
intent Of the will was to place the
estate in the hands OF the other with
a confident understanding that he or
she would make an equitable division
there was no doubt and 1t was with this
understanding that the Anal settle
ment was reached without going to law
about the matter.

Augusta, Maine, April 9.-An attack
on President Wilson's Mexican and
Panama canal tolls policy was made
by Congressman John A. Peters, OF
Maine. in his address as presiding Of
ficer of the republican state conven-
ton today.
Il have great admiration and respect
for President Wilson," said Mr.. Peters.
but no one but the blindest partisan
or one who has given the matter no
thought can have the slightest respect
for the foreign policy of his admins
tration. especially in Mexico. Indeed.
it can not be properly called policy
at all, because it is unintelligible and
aimless.'
Opportunity Thrown Away.
Mr.. Peters declared that by refusing
to recognize Huerta the president lost
his greatest opportunity to establish
some kind Of order in Mexico and save
thousands Of lives and countless
treasure" He added:
During this watchful, waiting pro-
cess Of the administration lives and
property of our own and other citizens
are being destroyed. England and
other countries have acted with
extraordinary forebearance. but the
limit must be reached some time. The
Mexican policy Of the administration
has excited the surprise and COM.
tempt of European countries.
'It looks in Washington as II Eng
land had our administration in a hole.
Apparently she has taken advantage of
the situation and said to the presi-
dent: Kindly have your congress re-
verse it's action in giving your coast
wise vessels a right to go thru the
Panama canal free and We will keep
out Of Mexico
ITO repeal the free tolls awsunder

We. had not the right to PASS It. It

pendous work. smasr1es the Monroe

Prohibition an Issue.
AS at the democratic and progressive
state conventions held last month, the
question Of prohibition appeared like
ly to occupy leading place in the
discussion at the republican state con-
vention today.
State officials are to be nominated at
the primaries in June. The principal
business was the adoption Of plat
form. Many Of the delegates favored
a plank urging national prohibition.
