TflH liEGISIiRTURE. i The house on Tuesday decided to invite Bryan to address the members on some date in the future. Hull of Harlan opposed the resolution at first, claiming that the important business of the mem bers should not be interrupted even bv W. J. Brvan. He finallv got an ml a mt W amendment attached to the resolu tion, inviting him to speak at an evening session. Senate file No. 119 providing for the display of the United States flag on every school building in Ne braska, has been indefinitely post poned. The motion to postpone was very warmly debated, and more or less personalities were indulged in. Ransom delared that the peo ple of this country were going "flag crazy", and pronounced the bill as buncombe. Caldwell roasted Ran som to a turn, saying that he was not suprised that a man who came from a state whose people had op posed the marches of the union armies would have the nightmare whenever the flag was mentioned. The house committee to which was refered the South Omaha stock vards bill have agreed to reduce the mi O rates for yarding and weighing cattle to 20 cents a head. The present rate is 25 cents and the raLi in the original bill is 10 cents. A reductin of 2 cents per head on hogs and I cent per head on sheep under the rates now charged for yarding and weighing was agreed on. The maiority report as ajrreed to Tuesday places the maximum - i r a. price on grain at cents a bushel and 50 cents a hundred for hay above the wholesale price on j both commodities. The republicans met in caacus Wednesday night at the Lindell hotel. One purpose of the confer ence was to consider the attitude of the minority on the exposition bill. At the meeting on Tuesday, the sentiment did not seem to be in favor of the S350,0(K appropriation asked and it is understood that the views were not much changed by the above meeting, though no definite action was taken. The re publicans say that they are not opposed to the bill, as a number of friends of the bill seem desirous ot believing, but say they are willing to do the fair thing- bv it. It is announced that the outlook for itate legislation favorable to the sugar beet growers is good. The committee appointed by Speaker Gafnn has decided to write to Prof. Nicholson of the Universitv of Ne braska. Hon. Robert W. Furnas and J. G. Hamilton, manager of the Norfolk sugar factory, and invite them to meet with the commiteeon Tuesday next. The object of this conference is to devise a plan for future legislation in behalf of the sujrar beet raiser. One of the plans suggested at the meeting of the committe was to divide the state into two districts, which dis tricts should be authorized to issue bonds to build new factories. The bonds would become a permanent investment, and profits accruing from the enterprise would be con verted back into a fund to take up the bonds at maturity. This plan seemed to be favorably received by the members of the committee, and it is considered highly probable that a bill drawn on these lines will be introduced at a near day in the house. The Nebraska legislature, al though containing many populists and tree silverites, has pat itself on record as opposing any radical leg islation hostile to corporations or securities. This had an excellent and reassuring effect in business and financial circles. Minneapolis Tribune MAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure. Celebrated for its great leavening strength and healtbfalness.

John Pauley, of Clay Center, was swindled out of $2,500 at Denver last week by a couple of clever free- silver men. They met him on the street and he was just the man they wanted to see. They were not long in buncoing him out ot his wad. The Colorado skin game is a smooth one, but it didn't go last fall. The C. B. Sz O. Railway company secured a temporary injunction last week at Adams, restraining the county treasury or any of his agents from levying on any of the stock of the company for taxes.

Speaking of the night flights of a flying machine west of Hastings the Grand Island Independent says: "There is no cause for any time being spent nights watching the phenomena. The light referred to is Rod Smith holding a tallow dip while Congressman Biilgreene re cites his essay preparatory to de parture for Washington. And the flights referred to are some of Bills' flights of oratory. The city council of Kearney is wrestling with the question of street lighting. The contract with the Kearney Electric company ex pired on the first of this month, and so far the officials have been unable to agree upon the terms of a new contract. The price paid prior to February 1st was 41 cents per per hour per light, and there were twenty-six arc lights used at that price. In addition there were nine lights which the city had the use of in consideration of having voted and donated to the Kearnev Canal and Water supply company $60,000 in bonds May 1, 1S94. The con tract for furnishing- the free iijr'ht was for a term of twenty years,and the city council is now inclined to get along with as few lights as pos sible. A meeting of the citizens was held to discuss the matter and it seemed to be the unanimous opinion that the council should only take the lights that the city was entitled to free, and if the electric company failed or refused to comply with this demand that steps shoeid be taken to force them to do so at once.
