A partial victory over tho no-called ma chine element In tho Nebraska Stato Teach ers association was won today by tho "antl" forces when tho association, In gen eral session, added a vlco president, to Its 'list of officers and made that ofllcla! n member of tho' executive committee.

"antls" control of tho executive committee, and that tho cxccutlvo commlttco has authority to rcqulro tho nominating commttteo to trans Act Its business Immediately after It Is named, thus accomplishing what was In tended by tho amendment.

V., nenlley anil Other Grand Is lander Denounce SnrnKe'a Action. GRAND fsLAND, Neb., Jan. 3. (Special.) In order to ascertain as fairly as possible the sentiment of the community upon tho pardon of Embezzler Bartloy by Governor Savage, thirty-one business men nnd cit izens wcro Interviewed ns they wcro mot, tho result showing a general sentiment of disapproval of Governor Savago's action. Following Is the gist of a series of Inter views, as printed In tho Independent to night: C. I- Bentley The governor urges, In de fense of his action In pardoning Bartloy, that Hartley's sentence was much ruoro sovoro than t4io avcrago sentence Imposed upon bank wreckers. In this connection the governor should have remembered that a crlmo against the state is n crlmo against that organization of society which alone makes It posslblo for us to enjoy life, lib erty nnd tbo pursuit of happiness. Tho gravity of such a crlmo Is not to bo meas ured merely by tho loss In dollars and cents, nor by tho Immediate suffering caused by It. Still less can tho crlmo bo palliated by the fact that tho proportionate amount ot damage to each citizen Is small. No cstl mnto of tho gravity of such a crlmo Is cor rect that leaves out of consideration tho fact that It lsan assault upon our civil Institutions which, if unpunished or con 'doncd, tonds to corrupt tho Institutions upon tho existence of which our present civilization depends. Asldo from theso con siderations, his argument as to tbo ,relatlvo degrco of punishment Indicted upon embez zlers nnd defaulters Is entitled to respectful hearing. But, In his attempt to Justify him self, tho governor goes to tho extent -of promulgating n doctrlno that Is not only IndcfonslUo, but positively vicious. Be cause somo ot tho money had been lost by depositing It In banks that' failed and bo cause some of tho failed banks had as sisted people who were financially embar rassed, and thereby possibly relieved them from loss and distress, ho says that "the problem becomes one of the peoplo's money, preventing the ruin of tho people's bus iness." His assumptions In this rcspoct, It true, aro true only to a very limited extent. But oven If every dollar missing from tho treasury had been lostiln an attempt to save Insolvent banks nnd business men from dis aster tho governor's statement contains a very dangerous fallacy. Tho funds In the state treasury aro collected from tbo peoplo of tho state for specific purposes, and any attempt to excuse tho misappropriation of such funds by reason of the fact that certain Inhabitants of tho state havo been bene fited or oven saved from failure thereby would open tho way to endless embezzle ments and defalcations. It Is deeply to bo regretted that the governor of tho state ot Nebraska should consider his position such as to need tho support of such a fallacious defense. r, W. A. Prince I don't think tho pardon ought to havo been granted. Tho sentence might have been a little excessive, but, In view ot the fact that Bartley nover made any explanation as to what had become ot the funds, he should not havo been par doned so early. Bartley has not shown what Is held out as an extenuation ot the pardon, that ho tided over anything during the panic. Rev. W. W. Carr I havo not read the accounts and am not In position to glvo any opinion. Jack Gallagher It nearly mado me sick when I read of It. It's a shame. II. P. Tucker I -can't sco how It's a good thing. The pardoning of tho big thieves Is nil wrong. t There was no Justlllcatton for It whatever. A. L. Barneby Well, If I had been thero he would not have been pardoned. W. H. Harrison I think It Is nn outrage. There Isn't any excuse for tho liberation ot Bartloy. W. H. Piatt I approvo of the pardon. And I mean Just what I eay. In fact, I don't bellove It does any good .to keep a man In prison ever two years. George Bartenbach I think the man has suffered enough. Whether It Is right or not well, that Is another matter. John Walllchs I don't believe It was right. A. W. Sterne I haven't read the govern or's reasons and do not want to express an opinion. W. H. Thompson Savage's act Is simply an( abuse of ,the pardoning power granted uy me constitution, ana an ever-living in ducement to tbo violation of public trust and disregard of publle confidence. Dr. W. B. Hoge It may be all right, but I don't think so. George D. Hetzcl It certainly Is not right. It Is a surprise to me. E. D. Hamilton It Is on outright shame. It is putting a premium on rascality and the action Is a serious mistake H. L. Bode An expression of oplnlou will not remedy the matter. J. A. Costollo If It Is truo that In the hard times Bartley loaned the money to prevent a panic, and If It Is not true that ho had any Intention of benefiting himself, I do not think that he Is as much a public criminal as ho Is a public benefactor. O. B. Bell I think. the nctlon the most outrageous ever perpetrated. C. G. Ryan I don't think I would havo let him loose until he had told where tbo money was. A. C. Mayor I haven't any opinion. T. O. C. Harrison Tho pardoning and commuting power la In the governor and ho no doubt finds sufficient reason for his ac tion. F. W. Ashton It Is a surprise, coming at this time, though I expected It beforo, tbo Savnge term expired. J. H. Woolley The pardon will have a bad effect on the morals of tho stato. D. Ackerman I glvo Governor Savago credit for the courage of his convictions. A. C. Lederman I know one thing, the taxpayers foot the' bill. O. A. Abbott, Sr. I am of the, opinion thnt It was Just tq Mr. Bartloy and Just to tho state. Fred Heddo I nm greatly opposed to this action of the governor. Governor Savage's attempted Justification is only wild talk. ' A. W. Buchhelt I don't know but that It's all right under tho circumstances. W. H. Mclaughlin You know how my vote was at the convention (republican state). I haven't changed my mind a bit. The governor Is off his whirl. IndlKiiutlon at Wlnahle. WINSIDB, Neb., Jan. 3. (Special,) An Inquiry among tho buslneos men of this community does not show n single man who falls to condemn tho pardon of Joe Bartley. Great Indignation Is also expressed at Savage's claim of Bartley supporting the bublnc-ss Interests of the state. In fact, the statement! of Savage have tost blm what JAiNUAKY 4, 19012.

Miss Mary Median, Et Concord street, Lawrence, Mass., writes:' "It gives mo great pleasure to tell you that today I am a new woman. I was troubled with catarrh for twenty years, and tried many kinds of medicine, but found no relief. Finally I tried Peruna, and after tak ing ono bottlo I felt better, and six bottles cured mo entirely. Henceforth I shall never bo without a bottle of Peruna." MISS MARY MEEHAN. Mrs. E. T.

Now I nm as well as over; I do all my own work and It never hurts mo at nil. I think Peruna Is a grcnt medictno for womankind." MRS. E. T. OADDIS. Dlaaulaed Calnrrli, Thero arc a great many pooplo who nro actually Invalids from'chronlc catarrh of some Internnl organ who have not tho slightest suspicion that they are victims of this universal disease. ' This Is especially true In cases of chronic catarrh of tho organs In tho lower part of the abdomen or pelvic organs. Theso organs arc especially liable to catarrh, which gives rise to weakening discharges, painful Irregularities, backache, bcarlng-down pains, smarting nnd throbbing, with a host of other symptoms peculiar to weak per sons of both sexes, but occurring much moro frequently In women, when It Is called femalo wenknoss. Thero nro a multltudo of women, especi ally housewives, and all other women obliged to bo on their foot continually, who aro wretched beyond description, simply becauso their strength nnd vitality .'s sapped away by catarrhal discharges. Porunn Is such a specific for such cases that when patients havo once used It they can never bo Induced to quit It until they aro permanently cured. It begins to relieve tho disagreeable Bymptoms at onco. The backacho ceases, the trombllng knees are strengthened, tho appetite restored, diges tion mado perfect, tho dull headacho Is stopped and the weakening drains aro gradually cured. Theso results certainly follow a course of treatment with Preunn. Mts.t .Louise Mahon, 3 Glen Bailie street, Toronto, Ont., Canada, Secretary of Uie King's Daughters and Secretary of Lady Maccabees, writes: "About a year ago I was so run down that I bad to take to ray bed. A friend ad vised mo to try Porunn and In two weeks I was out ot bed and In a month I was perfectly well. I uow find that my health Is much more robust than formerly, so that I take Peruna once or twlco a month and keep well." MISS LOUISE MAHON. Ask Your Druggist for a supporters he ever had here. Only two opinions seem to be entertained ono Is that Savago was piqued at the action of tho republican convention and wanted to show his band and strength. Tho other is not as complimentary.
