Wm. .1, Hryan today that the name
of Uio Nobraskan Had not been

Wo talked things ovor generally.

Howovor. C. F. MoKnlght and

tho city council should romlt tho

because, tho oporn houso has been
furnished tho band and for other
public functions for tho moro cost
of opening it. Tho HconBO Is about
$100 a yenr.
Tho mnttcr will probably bo pre

do anything about It then.
Tho remission of tho llconso
might not mean n rhnngo In the
