LINCOLN. Nov. 15. (Special.) Several
of tho fusion officeholders at tliu state
bouao have sufficiently recovered from tlio
bliock of tlio election to begin discussing
plans for tho future reorganization of tho
"reform" forces. One small clement of
disappointed Jiolttlcla na has already nom
inated V. J. Hrynn for governor two years
henco; another clement has decided that
ho shall remain out of actlvo politics In
Nebraska for ut IcaHt four or llvu years.
Humiliated dy tho recently published In
terview with Senator Allen tho populists
liavo declared that their party will eontlnuo
to bo tho ovcrstopplng fuetor of tho fusion
forces, but on this point tho democrats
dlsugreo with their reform brethren. On
two propositions, however, tho retiring
statesmen agree perfectly. Ono Is that
Chairman J. It. Edmlsteii of tho populist
slato central committee must bo thrown
over tho transom and tho other Is that
J. Sterling Morton must not bo nllowed to
Ret a foothold In tho democratic party.
They Insist thnt If thcro Is any reorganize
lng to be dono thu work must not bo trusted
to n man who has been fighting them.
Tho Rrlcvnnco ngnlnst Edmlstcn arose
when It was learned that ho had been deal
ing treacherously With one of their can
didates, tho only man to whom many ot
them looked for Influence to assist them
In retaining their positions. H has been
said hero that prominent democrats of
Otoo county have been notified not to send

A monthly report of tho sluto treasurer,

ugaln discloses tlio fact that tho state Is
receiving no benefit from an enormous
portion of tho educational trust funds,
whlrh tho treasurer bt required by law to
Invest for tho benefit of stalo educational
institutions. In the early days of tho cam
paign, when tho uninvested portion of theso
funds amounted to over $200,000, tho state
treasurer announced through tho fusion
newspapers thnt within four months he
would havo practically nil this money In
vested In thu natno of tho Btate. Tho
monthly balance Hhcets ahow that, not
withstanding the treasurer's declaration,
tho amount of school money "on hand"
did not decrease. Today's balance sheet
shows that ut tho four educational funds

It is expected that tho feeding of sheep

reason Is that tho prices paid are excep

SIOUX F.ALLS, S. D., Nov. 13. (Special.)
Aro thu Slsseton Indians full citizens
of tho United States becauso they have
taken allotments ot land nnd adopted tho
modo of living of their white neighbors
nnd thus not nmenablo to tho laws of tho
United States prohibiting tho balo of In-
oxltatlng liquor to Indiana or halfbreeds,
Is n question Just raised In tho United
States court hero nnd which will bo sent
to tho United States circuit court ot ap
peals for nn answer.
At tho last term of court Anthony Far-
rell, a resident of Veblen, was convicted
of selling liquor to n halfbrecd Slsseton
Indian named tllodu LaFranibolse. Ills
uttoruey, S. II. VnnUusklrk of Wotcrtown,
cx-nsslstant United States attorney for
South Dakota, moved for a new trial, rals
lng tho question ot tho court's Jurisdic
tion In such cases. Judgo Carland over
ruled tho motion nnd has Just sentenced
Farrcll to pay a fine of $100 nnd servo n
term of ono year nnd ono dny in tho Sioux
alls penitentiary. Judgo Cnrland held In
substnnco thnt tho Indian was undor tho
guordlanshlp of the United States und
therefore within tho statute prohibiting
tho salo of intoxicating liquor to Indians
r mixed bloods,
Hauls of I lie Appeal.
Tho caso will bo appealed to tho United
Stntes circuit court of nppcals, ou tho
round that tho United States court Is
without Jurisdiction; that LnFrambolso is
ot nn Indian or a member of nny tribe of
Indians, that tho stntuto under which It Is
sought to maintain tho action against Far
roll Is unconstitutional Insofar as It at
tempts to mako It r criminal offense to soil
Intoxicating liquor to a mixed-blood In
dian whoso paternal ancestors wcro whlto
men nnd who nmlntnlns no tribal relation,
but has accepted tho habits of civilized
ltfo and maintains tho samo nnd has been
madu n citizen of tho United Stntes and
subject to tho laws, civil and criminal, ot
tho stato of South Dakota.
Assistant United States Attorney Porter,
who Is handling the government's sldo of
tho case, contends that under tho Mclklo-
johti lnw of January 30, 1S97, federal
courts havo jurisdiction over Indians und
mixed-bloods who havo taken ullotmouts
of land under tho severalty act, but to
which allotments tho tltlo Is held In trust
by tho government for a period of twcnty-
flvo years. Whllo tho Slsseton Indiana
hnvo taken thulr allotments of land and
nro duly qualified voters of South Dakota,
tho tltlo to their lands Is held In trust
by tho government for tbo period stated.
Tho higher courts havo never passed
upon tho constitutionality of tho act ot
congress prohibiting tho salo of liquor to
Indians or mixed-bloods who havo taken
nllotmonts nnd providing penalties therefor
and Attorney VniiHusklrk believes that tho
circuit court of appeals will sustain his
contention und order tho rclenso of his
clleut, Furrell, from tho penitentiary.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Oil., Nov. ID.
Dr. Edwurd Ross, bead professor In tho
department of economics nnd sociology nt
Stanford university, baa resigned. Tho
resignation caused qulto n sensation lu
university circles, whero Dr, Ross wns ex
tremely popular. In his formal letter of
resignation Dr. Ross Intimated that ho was
being forced out of tho university by Mrs.
Stanford, who hnd taken exceptions to
statements mado by him In his public nd
dresscs on soclologlcul nnd economic ques
tions. Ho further snld that Mrs. Stan
ford was prompted by certain poworful
persons nnd commercial Interests In San
Francisco. Several of tho faculty havo
taken sides with Dr. Ross.
Dr. Jordan, president of the uulveralty,
said today: "In regard to tho resigna
tion of Dr. Ross, It Is right that 1 should
mako n further statement. Thero Is not
the slightest ovldcnco that ho Is a 'martyr
to freedom of speech.' Nor Is thero any
reason to bellovo that his withdrawal baa
been duo to tiny prcssuro of capital or any
other sinister Influence. I know that Mrs.
Stanford's decision wns reached only utter
long and earnest consideration, and thnt Its
motive was tho welfaro of tbo university
ami that alone.
"Tho sentence quoted In a San Francisco
morning paper to tho effect that men of
largo Interest, eastern linunclrrs us a rulo,
havo had a part In tho determining of tho
relations of Dr. Ross, Is ono which I can
not ticcopt ns having been uttered by me.
I no interests to which tho reporter meant
to refer wore Interests In economic science,
not In flnancu."
Upon being shown Dr. Jordan's statement,
Dr. Ross dictated tho following: "Dr.
Jordan knows vastly more than I do as to
Mrs. Stanford's motives. Whatever ho Hays
is roncluslvu ns far ns I nm concerned.
It Is absolutely certain, however, that tho
freedom of speech Is Involved, not my ap
pcaranco, personality or charucter, but
solely my nonpartisan scientific utterances
havo been tho root of Mrs. Stanford's dis
trust of me."
Supplementing his former utterances upon
tbo subject of Dr. Ross' dlsmlHsal, Dr.
Howard today addressed his class In his
tory upon tho matter and his address forms
tho most sonsationnl statement that has
yet bctn delivered In tho Ross controversy.
Tho entire hour of tho class was given
up to tho discussion of "Frco speech." Dr
Howard arraigned the Influences that
brought tho dismissal of tho professor.
Prof. Howard concluded hlB speech with
this scnsatlnnal utterance: "I do not bow
down to Saint Market street. I do not doff
my hat to the Six Companies, neither am
I nfrald of tho Standard Oil company."
