Strange Doing In Nebraska.

For man who undertook to give
candidates and princiles to his party.
it must be said that Mr. Bryan comes
out of the Nebraska primaries de-
cidedly the worst for wear. He de-
manded the nomination of his broth
er for Governor. He insisted that
the democratic organization should
indorse prohibition. He asked that
Senator Hitchcock be refused a re-
nomination. He wanted Mr. Dahl
man made National Committeeman.
He was a candidate himself for
delegate at large to the National
Convention.
While the ex-Secretary may have
been elected by a narrow margin,
all his other plans have been defeat
ed. If he depended upon the peace
at-any-price vote, the explanation is
that it evidently went to Henry
Ford. who was running for the
Presidential nomination on the Re-
publican ticket. If he hoped for
great things from the German vote,
his disappointment must be attrib-
uted to the fact that there never is
any German vote except when Sun
day beer is in question, and he could
not fire the German heart with cold
water. York World.

They Had a Lucky Escape

John Kerley, wife and daugh-
ter arrived in the city Wednesday
evening from Eugene, Ore, and
are spending a few days visiting
at the J. V. Baker home, Mrs.
Kerley and Mr.. Baker being

sengers beneath the car. Fortu-
nately another car had stopped

slightest from the accident and
word was soon sent to town from
the Mcpherson home and Mr..
Baker went out with his car and
brought them to his home. The
car was brought in yesterday and
will soon be put in shape for the
road.
