Warden Fenton Dis
covers Dope in Sacks
of Tobacco.

Lincoln, July ID. - Especially -
Federal authorities are investigating
attempted smuggling of narcotics
into the state penitentiary here.
Warden w. T. Fenton returned to
Lincoln today after two days spent
at the federal building, Omaha, in
consultation with E. A. Carroll, fed
cral narcotic agent. The warden de-
clared that a member of well or
ganized gang Of dope peddlers oper-
ating out of Omaha was under arrest
there and that more arrests are look
cd for.
Prison authorities discovered the
plot last week when in examining
Bull Durham tobacco sent to prison.
ers they found that the picture of the
bull hsd been removed, dope placed
between the picture and the sack and
the picture repasted on the sack.
The warden made quiet investiga-
ton at the penitentiary, learned
some facts concerning the operations
of the gang in Omaha and went there
early this week with the information
"One of the men who is a mem
her of the gang has been indicted ii
Omaha for selling dope on th'
Streets" the warden said.
Dope caused the Shorty" Gray
outbreak 10 years ago and ever Sine

warden has been tjreless in stamping
out this old prison evil. This is tn
first time in months that Omah
gangsters have attempted to SNUG

BY PAUL GREER.

Beatrice, Neb.. July l4.-Thc pri,
mary campaign that closes next
Tuesday is giving the people a
chance to tell their troubles to the
candidates. Heart.to-hcart talks
have supplanted windy orations and
most of the politicians are listening
instead OF talking. These tours from
town -to-town, in which candidates
rub shoulders with all sorts and con-
dtions OF people, have been doubly
educational.
A day with Adam McMullen, who
is seeking the republican nomination
for governor OF Nebraska. illustrates
this fact. 1t is said that he goes
faster and sees more people IN
day than any other candidate. Leav-
ing town at 8 in the morning, he
spends the first hour or so visiting
with farmers over their fences. As
soon as business life awakens in the
towns he is there, shaking hands
with bankers. merchants, clerks,
wage earners and women shoppers.
A lifetime in Nebraska, capped
with previous edhPa!sn ~ s'"
office, has given him the advantage
of a wide reputation and acquaint-
ance. In .he last month he has Wis,
tied every corner OF the state and
always he finds some one with whom
he is familiar.

Once there was a young man

he heard something that sounded

I thank you"
Whatever else may be said, there

situation would not become so SEN
