LINCOLN, May 2--(SpeciaI. 1.-The city
campaign in lincoln reached the acute
stage last night when at a meeting Of
the Bryan forces at the city auditorium.
one OF the speakers George A. Adams,
publicly accused City Commissioner King,
who is not a candidate for reelection, as
having sold out to the burlington"
The charge was made in connection
with the appointment of present Chief Of
Police James Malone by Mr. King, who
Is in charge OF the public safety depart
ment- and 1t was charged by the speaker
that King had sold the appointment OF
chief Of police in return for certain con-
tracts with the Burlington.
Commissioner King, who has been in

speaker. shouted as he shook his cane

Mrs. King came TO her husband and
persuaded him to leave the hall, but the

the general opinion that mistake was
made in bringing him into the matter.
Speakers at the meeting besides Adams

ing to Deputy Attorney General Barrett.
but all officers must be elected by the
company affected or by the regimental
officers when it is a regimental office to
be filled.
The opinion comes because Of a letter
put up to the attorney generals office by
Adjutant General Hail. who would like
to promote members OF the guard and
especially officers who have shown their
adaptation to the work and would
strengthen the guard il they should be
placed where they could do the most
efficient service.
However. the statutes provide that COM
pany officers must be elected by the
members OF the company and regimental
officers by the commissioned officers OF
the companies composing that regiment.

ideas OF General Hall can be put In

courtesy, asked him the customary dues-
lions, and passed him on 70 the medical
inspector. the socialist was found sound
and healthy and was drafted without de

LINCOLN. May 2-(Special)-lt is the
