POPULISTS AS' DEBT-PAYERS
Officii of Stat Central Coamitte Make
Pinal Appeal.
SHOW UP THE SHYNESS OF CONSTITUENTS
Still .cnrly Fhe Thoasnnd Dollars
Hue nnd Each Coanlr Shows
Marked Disposition to
Shirk responsibility.
LINCOLN", April 1!. (Special.) The ofll
cers ot the populist state central committee
are making a desperate attempt to raise
enough money to pax ott the Indebtedness
Incurred by the committee during tbe last
campaign, but so far they have been able
to raise only 1904.61 on a trantlc demand
for 15 051. In tbe current edition of ibe
Nebraska Independent, one ot the organs
ot the party manngers, the committee sub
mitted a four-column appeal for financial as
sistance, parts of which were emphasized by
fiery red ink and startling headlines. It
Is directed to "all friends of reform," an.l
Is said to be the last appeal that will be
made. Attached to the letter Is a stat
tnent showing the amount of money each
county should raise and the amount ot
money euch county has already raised.
As to the Indebtedness ot the committee
the officers say:
"Occasionally tho action of the state com
mlttee Is criticised and doubt Is expressed
as to the wisdom of Its having contracted
certain of the Items. Such criticism Is
proper In Its place but should not be ussd
to nrevent navment of the claims, whctlur
any certain expenditure Is wise or foolish
Is wholly a matter of personal ludgmcnt-
aud it in difficult to find any considerable
number of persons who would agree on
everything. Certain It Is, that had our
campaign been successful there would not
now bo any questions raised as to whether
the expenditures were wise or otherwise.
It la sufficient to know that there aro
debts unpaid and owing by the state com
mittee: that these debts .were contracted
In good faith; nnd that, with possibly a
few minor exceptions, all the claims are
Just and ought to be paid. Now Is not
the time for postmortems; It Is a time for
action. Something must be done and done
quickly If we clear up the debts of the
last campaign before another is upon as,
Every cent of the debts could be paid oft
and a snug little sum placed In the com
mittee treasury for the coming campaign
If every man who voted for Governor Poyn'
ter last fall would "drop a nickel In the
slot." The same thing could bo accota
nllshed It one out of every five of those
voters gave a silver quarter. Or, 5,600 of
them giving $1 apiece, could swing it. Is
It possible that there are not 6,000 popu
lists In Nebraska who are able and willing
to give each a dollar to maintain the party
organization?
"I find by consulting my records that
since February 1. 1 have sent out nearly
11,000 letters and circular letters; and, 'n
cludlnc this week's paper, nearly 20.000
copies of The Independent all for the pur
the work being done by our committee. The
table shows that out of 7,466 letters sent
to Individuals, asking a personal contrlbu
tlon. S21 responses have been received up
to last week (or 8,5 up to Tuesday noon)
llccord f the Counties.

Mnn' New Tree at State House.
Arbor day was notable here for the
large number of trees planted on the state
house lawn and on tbe public school
grounds. Nearly every class In the grade
schools set out a tree of some kind this
afternoon and although the school children
were not given a holiday the usual dally
program of study and recitation was di
versified by special exercises, detlgned to
promote tbe annual planting ot trees. All
the banks In the city remained closed
throughout tbe day.
On tbe state house lawn tbo planting of
trees was on an extensive scale. Over 100
five-year-old elms and quite a number ot
otbe varieties were planted. The elm trees
were Imported from a nursery at Shenan
doah, la., and by oxperts were pronounced
to be in first-class condition, From the
ground they stand about twelve feet high.
Nell Griffin, who has charge of the grounds
about the state hoube, said tbe trees are
better than any that could have been pur
chased in Nebraska 'and that they coat' $50
less than the same number ot native trees
would have cost.
Tbe offices In tbe state house were closed
today, but several members ot the Doard
of Public I.ands and Buildings v.ere on the
grounds superintending the tree planting,
which, however, was under the Immediate
charge of Nell Orlffln.

St. PAUL, Minn., April 22. (Special
Telegram.) The United States circuit coutt
of appeals filed four decisions today, three
of them being on cases appealed from Ne
braska. In the case of the Metropolitan National
bank ot Chicago, plaintiff In error, against
Peter Jansen and John Jansen, defendants
In error, Judge Thayer writes the opinion
nd the Judgment of the lower court Is
affirmed. The main question was, Could
the maker nnd lndorser of a note appear

the consideration? The opinion finds the
parties could so appear and testify. The
action Involved a debt of $5,000 for options
on a wheat deal and this the court holds
Is collectible.
In the case of the city ot Beatrice, Neb.,
plaintiff In error, against Chester B. Mass
Itch defendant In error, the opinion Is
by Caldwell, and the decision of the lower
court Is affirmed. The suit was brought
on city bonds Issued for tbe purpose of
Improving the streets. The defense wes
the constitutionality of the Issue.
In the case of E. P. Reynolds St Co., ap
pellants against Manhattan Trust com
pany and others, appellees, the opinion ts
by Thayer, the motion to revoke a former
mandate and Issue, a new mandate Is de
nied because the appellants did not begin
their proceedings in" time under the rules.
This suit Involved a mechanics' lien of JOT,
400, on property sold In a railroad fore
closure suit. The master In chancery to
whom the question was referred decided
the .lien was valid for 113,600. Exceptions
were filed to the report and a decree ot
circuit court dismissed the lienor's' claim.
The appellate court reverses this decree,
sustains the master and orders the case re
manded to tho circuit court with directions
to sustain tbe master's ruling.

against the Bock Island railroad for J310.- '

Kodo
Dyspepsia Cur
Many digestive compounds and tablets aro recommended to
cure dyspepsia by digesting food with tbe pepi-ln they contain.
Most of these possess merit, but they all fall in many cases, bo
cause pepsin digests only albuminous foods, such as eggs anil
meat. But we must eat mora than eggs and meat; and some of
the worst cases of dyspepsia are caused by indigestion of fata and
6tarchcs and other foods which pepsin cannot digest.
There is one preparation that contains all the tllgcstants. It is
Kodol DvsricrsiA CcnE, which digests what you eat, and has
been used with remarkable success, not a single failure to euro
being reported from the many thousands who hare used it.
J. E. Pcabody, Fltcalrn, 2. Y., says: "The first dose of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure, relieved my son of stomach and heart trouble,
and four bottles of it cured him. I heartily recommend It."
