LINCOLN, Jan. 22. (Special.) When the ftjRlonlcts had complete control of both branches of tho legislature six years ago they did some gerrymandering In the con gressional districts to strengthen their party. The republicans this winter miy glvo the fuslonlsts a doeo of their own medicine In the gerrymandering business. Thoy will at least undo tho gerrymander ing dono by the fuslonlsts six years ago. Of cotirfc, Just what will bp dono In regard to tho changing of congressional districts Is In tho air and will remain so until tho changes contemplated enn bo fixed up In a satisfactory manner, but It's not n wild guess to predict that many changes will bo made. The greatest trouble will be en countered In arranging the districts and the mombers of the senato and house who aspire to represent tholr constituents In congress at some future tlmo will vigorously opposo any measure which would place them In a hopelessly fusion district, thus sounding their political deathkncll, so far as going to congress Is concerned. This Is ono objec tion which wilt bo raised to a hill Introduced by Benator Von llosklrk of Alllanco this morning. Tho bill was drawn up by J. C. rottljohn of Valentine. It would glvo tho republicans four sure districts, another In which they would havo much the better of tho fuitlonlsia, whllo the Third would bo the only district from which the fuslonlsts would bo suro of electing a congressman, anil for this reason aspiring young republic una who nro left In this fusion stronghold am certain to object to any such arrange ment. From tho Third district It Is pro posed to tako Hurt, Thurston, Dakota, Dixon, Wayne, Cedar, Knox, I'lerce, Madi son and Antelope, with a total republican plurality of 373, and ndd to the district Val ley, Orecley, Howard and Sherman, which faro taken from tho Sixth and which last year gavo a fusion plurality of over S00. tho Idea being to mako thn Sixth a suro republican district by sacrificing tho Third, whlrh at tho present tlmo Is not consid ered hopelessly fusion. Will lllsplrnsp Jlnnr. Tbo bill proposes to leave Stanton, Cum ing and Howard In this strong fusion dis trict, and for this reason It is unto to pre dict that Buch stalwart and nsplrlng young republicans as Senators Young of Stanton and Oleson of Cuming, neither of whom would bo avcrso to going to congress, will opposo tho bill. Such nn arrangement Is not likely to please A. K. Cndy of Howard county, as well as n number of others who will not core to bo placed In tho Third dis trict ns proposed. Tho proposition, how ever, would bo looked upon with favor by the remainder of tho big Sixth district, not withstanding tho fact that tho claim Is innilo that tho Sixth will elect a repub lican two yearn henco without any change. In tho First district tho only chango sug gested Is to tako Seward county, which Is fusion by something more thnn 100, out of tho Fourth nnd pl.ico It In tho First, thus helping out tho Fourth, nt present u fusion district, without placing the First In any danger. In tho Sccoud district, now composed of Douglas, Karpy and Washington, It Is pro poeed to add Dodge, which Is fusion by only about 100, nud get rid of Sarpy,, which-rolls up a fusion plurality of nearly 300, by plac ing It In tho Third district, nnd by this chango n republlcun gain of 200 would bo made for the Second district. Aim nt Ntitrk'N Sculp. Tho Fourth district Is also to bo remod eled on n very broad scale, n plan which Is destined to cause Hon. Mr. Stark somo restless nights. Tho only counties out of tho cloven of which tho district Is now comprised which are to be retained nro Sa line, (Jage, Jefferson, Thayer, Flllmoro nnd York. Sownrd Is placed In the First, whllo Saunders, Duller, Folk and Hamilton are donated to thn Third, which Ir made a reg ular dumping gruuud for counties with pop ullstlc tendencies. In return for tho flvo counties thus taken from tho Fourth, tho counties of Clay, Nuckolls, Webiiter, Adams nud Franklin, all from tho Fifth district, uro given and by tbo change It Is said that the Fourth will bo permanently republican, br will every other district except tho Third. It Is very likely, however, that thn bill beforo It becomes a law, will bo burdened with many amendments, so many, In fact, that It will hardly bo recognized ob thn original mcusuro. nintrli'U Outlined In It 1 1 1 .

LINCOLN, Jnn. 22. (Special Telegram.) The senate committed on public lands an buildings, nccompauled by an architect and export electrician, paid a visit to tho peni tentiary tonignt for tho purpose of Invcstl gating tho needs of tho Institution as re ganls lighting and ventilating, and as n TO CUI112 Till dltll', Ad tier of it Fn mo un I'll; ale tun. First and foremost, HEST. Tako caro nf yourself. Your already weakened nerves want rest nnd must hav It. If tho attack Is severe, go to bed and remain there. More fatalities result from neglect of this precaution than from any other rause Rat sparingly. Your digestive organs are In no condition to tako care of largo quan titles of food. Drink plenty of pure, cold water. It al lays tho fever, stimulates thn kidneys to action and opens up the pores of the skin Keep tho bowels open with Dr. Miles' Nervo and Liver Pills. Take three doses of Dr. Miles' Nervlno per day, and If you cannot sleep tako an extra dose at bedtime. To further control tho fever and to overcome tho pculla aches and pains of grip, use Dr. Miles' Pal Pills. They act quickly and effectually and no bad effects result from their uie, These remedies havo been thoroughly tested more than a million times and their efll clone lo thoroughly established.

WILL OF THE PEOPLE (Continued from First Page.) reconcile, except upon tho theory that In tences are at work entirely nt variance with the party's Interests, which at this ritlcal tlmo demands the endorsement only of men who enjoy the popular confl- rr.co In tho highest degree becauso of cmonstrated capacity to grapple with na tional and International problems. Cntiptm (ioHnlp. Pressure for n caucus Is being renewed by the Thompson following, who assert that they havo more than forty-five names to their 67-48 caucus paper. A new sug gestion was Injected by a member of tho hlrd houso today who' unbosomed himself n this fashion: "Thompson says ho wants a caucus to proceed at onco to nominate one senator t a time. Ho nlso says he Is a candldato for tho short terra only and Infers that he short term senator would be made first. Now, If ho Is really In earuest for making one senator at a time and means what he saays about wanting tbo abort term, why can't bo agree to let them make the long erm senator first and hold his own can didacy aloof until tho North Platte man Is hoscn? If his proposition to elect himself first Is as fair as Thompson claims, then tho proposition to elect tho other fellow first Is certainly Just as fair. Why not try It?" Of course, Mr. Thompson has not yet seen fit to selzo upon the Idea. In tho meanwhile tho members who nro studying tho situation critically are seeing moro and moro that tho only caucus plan fair to nil Is that requiring simultaneous nomina tion. Another "Informnl" Conference1. A conference attended by about forty members who nro friendly to Thompson, Mclklejohn or Currlo was held tonight, at which conditions for n senatorial caucus wero discussed nt length. Nothing def inite was agreed upon, but It was Iho pre vailing sentiment that both nominations fhould bo mado simultaneously. Under tho call provlously circulated for this meeting, nnd which had nbout forty-live signers, the conforees wero to determine the conditions, but notwithstanding this messengers wero kept busy consulting with Mr. Thompson relative to propositions advancod, and theso messengers kept the conferees advised as to his wishes. Another meeting will bo held tomorrow cvonlng nnd In tho meantime efforts will bo mado to obtain additional signers to tho call, which simply provides for nn attend ance of slxtv-seven members, with forty- eight to nominate. Upwards of a scoro of members who are opposed to tho slnglo nomination plan nlso held a meeting tonight nnd discussed ways for obtaining a crucub on conditions nearly llko thoso named In tho other call, but with tho understanding that tho double ballot system U used In tho voting. Jnkrr In Clunrctte I'iii'Iiukc Tho passage by the houso of a bill Im posing n heavy special license, tax on ciga rette dealers yesterday precipitated a most ludicrous spectacle. Tho bill, so the story goes, was Introduced at the procurement of tho lobby, perhaps with or without tho knowledgo of the eminent legislator who fathered It, with no Intention whntevcr of having It enacted Into law. It went to tho Judiciary committee, which with unex pected hasto reported It buck favorably for passage beforo tho bill's real sponsors had tlmo to get their second breath. Hopro scntatlvo Murray, a fuulonlst from Thurs ton county, whoso name appears on tho mensuro ns It camo from tho printer, saw no other alternative but to get up nnd make a play for It In committee, of tho whole starting such n furore In Its behalf that It literally broko away from Its coupling and shot down tho track llko a wild cngtnn. Three or four friendly Indians tried to put on brakes, but the gearing was rusty and It never stopped till ordered to n third read lug on Its passage. Tho Cigarette trust will now hnve to supply tho shoo leather that will have to bo worn nut chasing It down to tho senate end of tho capltol structure, nnd tho lobbyists who did the work, or who, by the wny. aro said to be pretty closo to the top of tho fusion ma chine, will count ono more lesson taught In tho school of experience. Tho university regents hnvo had printed In pamphlet "form for legislative lnspcc Hon their regular report, together with n "gencrnl survey" of tho Institution designed to back up their estimates for approprla Hons for tho coming blennlum- Notwith standing tho fact that during the last two years the unlvsrslty hus had nearly $500,- 000, or almost $200,000 moro than for, the same period Just preceding, tho regents mako out tho same cuse of dlro need nnd Insufficient resources that has been pro sented to every succeeding legislature nnd couch their estimated demands in the mod est request for an appropriation of $615,500 or moro than twice what wns given when tho board was under republican control Tho I'ontlnunnco of tho special 1-mlll tax lnvy Is regarded as a matter of course nnd tho outlays In view aro carefully figured to tako up overy cent, not only of tho pro ceeds of this tnx, but also of tho returns from the unlvorslty fund endowment and dividends on tho federal distribution of agricultural collego aid. Tho regents add naively that "following tho policy outlined two years ago tho regents ank for no ap proprlattons outsldo of tho university funds as now created by general statutes, state and national," although they forgot to say that this Is an after thought reached after rescinding n request for still $75,000 more which they had decided to ask appropriated out of tho general fund and which wns dropped only on the firm protest of tho re publican members of tho board against the proposed extrnvagance.
