CFrom a staff Correspondentl

LINCOLN, Neb., June 20-(Spccial)-
Though spending a couple Of days in the
city, Mathew Gering Of Plattsmouth,
whose name was filed with the secretary
of state day or so ago for the repub-
lican nomination for congress, has not ac-
cepted the filing, but has made n state
ment which indicates that he will enter
the race.
In speaking. OF his candidacy Mr.. Ger
ing said: Since the fall of 1900 when at
Washington hall in Omaha, in a public
speech 1 renounced by devotion to the
democratic party and its leaders, who
believed were disrupting IT and uttering
a requiem on its sad and untimely de-
mise, I have in large degree refrained
from active participation In politics. But
when the delightful suggestion was whis-
pered in my ear that | enter the race for
the republican nomination for congress,
1 listened with delightful eagerness"
This would indicate that Mr.. Gering
will get into the race with all the force
at his command and will make every ef-
fort to make the delightful suggestion"
a reality.
Missouri Pacific Change.
The State Railway commission has is
sued an order regarding the running Of
trains on the Lincoln branch of the Mis-
souri, Pacific which nullifies the trial or
der made some time ago which allowed
the Lincoln train to leave Lincoln at 6:45
in the morning instead of fifteen minutes
later so that connection might be made
with the train from Weeping Water to
Louisville, which could thus connect with
Burlington No. "a at the latter point to
enable Cass county people to get service
to Plattsmouth without being compelled
to spend two days for the trip. The rail-
way company made showing that the
new arrangement only accommodated on
an average OF a little over two passen-
gers a day and that by reason of the
early leaving of the train from Lincoln
street car connection could not be made
to the Missouri Pacific depot and the
company had lost considerable in passen-
ger traffic.
