tFrom a staff Correspondent J

Lincoln, Neb., July l4.-(Special
Telegram 1.-The progressive state
committee after a short executive ses-
sion last evening passed the follow.
ing resolution offered by M. F. STAN
ley Of Aurora, which was unanimously
adopted on roll call:
Resolved, that the state committee
of the progressive party in Nebraska
hereby approves and endorses the ac-
tion OF the national committee taken
at Chicago June 26, 1916, whereby it
endorsed the candidacy of the Hon.
Charles E. Hughes for president, and
we recommend to all progressives that
they give him their loyal and hearty
support in the coming campaign"
The meeting was we'll attended and
harmonious to the fullest extent on
the adoption of the resolution.
F. P. Corrick presided and N. T.
Thorson was secretary.
Candidates Endorsed.
By unanimous action the commit
tee endorsed the candidacy of A. l..
Sutton for governor, John L. Ken
nedy for the United States senate,
Addison Wait for secretary of state,
George w. Marsh for auditor and
w. A. Reynolds for state treasurer.
The progressive candidates for
these offices had rendered their regis
nations, but for the other offices no
designations had been received, and it
is probable that no acceptances have
been made. The executive committee
was empowered to act in the place
OF the regular committee.
WOLF Nominated.
For presidential electors the same
course was taken as on the other Of
ficials. In the Third district, H. Cor
don Cross had sent in his declination
to run and the committee nominated
George F. Wolz of Fremont, repub-
lican Ielector from that district.
The party organization will be
maintained during the campaign, and
Chairman Corrick was instructed to
call the state convention according
to law.

TRACK ELEVATION
PROVES PUZZLE
Number of Tracks to Be
Raised BotherS Board of
Works.

No decision was reached at the
meeting Of ;he board Of public
works with Mayor Fred W Keller
and City Atty. Eli seebirt at the
offices OF the mayor in the city hall
Thursday evening. at which the mat
ter Of regulating the number OF
tracks that the Lake Shore company
VIII be permitted 10 elevate came
up for discussion.
Before the ordinance demanding
the elevation OF the tracks can be
submitted 20 the common council
il is necessary 10 decide the exact
number of tracks that viii be
elevated. 80 agreement has as yet
been reached between the railway
company and the city and il was
the purpose Of this meeting to de-
eide how many tracks the city
would be willing 10 permit elevated.
Directly. according 20 state law,
the ci.y has no authority 20 dictate
the number Of tracks that the com
rany is 20 elevate as long as the
elevation is carried out on the right
Of way IL Is possible, however. 20
exercise some control owing 20 the
fact that the city must stand part
OF the expense of constructing the
bridges and abutments at the street
intersections. Inasfar as il can
he ascertained the expenses incident
10 the elevation of railway through
the city are divided among the in
terested parties in the following
manner.
How Costs Are Divided.
The railway company must pay
for the elevation Of the tracks with
this exception that the city must
stand good for % per cent of the
cost % constructing the bridges
across the streets. The city must
pay for any change that is 10 be
made in the surfacing of the street
though il is provided that if a street
car line is on the street il must pay
One-tenth OF the cost as long as it
is within a specified limit.
At Michigan street there are but
four tracks or perhaps three that
would need be elevated and at other
street intersections there as high as
eight. II Is a mooted question in
the minds OF the city officials wheth-
or the company should be permitted
10 elevate all these tracks or nor
on one hand the elevation OF all Of
the tracks might have much 10 do
with the facilitating Of transporta-
ton OF the city's products There
is the other argument that fewer
tracks will suffice and that the
larger number will only increase the
burden upon the city's treasury un-
necessarily. It is a question. too
whether or not additional tracks
could not he elevated as required
Can't Reach Decision.
II was not possible with the data
at hand at the meeting TO make a
decision i'm the matter. AS a conse-
quence after a session OF an hour
