(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Jan. 31. (Bpoctal.) The Ne
braska Independent for thla week contains
a vigorous arraignment ot the former state
administration and accuses not only J. B.
Meserve, but other members of tbo fusion
Board ot Educational Lands and Funds, ot
appropriating state Interest money for
their own private use. The Independent Is
the recognized organ of the fusion forces
and heretoforo has strenuously defended
former Treasurer Mcscrvo, as well as othor
fusion officials who served with him, against
all attacks coming from partisan or other
sources. It now' says:
Ex-8tato Treasurer Meserve has been In
dicted for putting into his pocket J10,(M) or
ItS.UuO of interest on school money that
camo Into the stato treasury, We arc Bind
r muss has been kicked up on that ones
tlon. Tho state treasurer's ofilco haa been
a perpotual home for thieves for thirty
years. All the state officers have always
stood up and dofended everything done by
nil tho other state officers. We did have
one honest deputy for a while, but us soon
os lie began to criticise the dishonesty ot
the stato houie he was kicked out. It has
always looked as though the treasurer did
not want to Invest tho school money ac
cording to law, but loaned It out and nut
tho Interest money In his pocket. We hope
and expect Mr. Meserve will clear his
pocket. Tho balance of tho state board
teemed tn sanction tho course and undoubt
edly received a part of the Interest money.
Before- tho law was made requiring the
treasurer to put tho state money Into banks
with bonded security the treasurer never
had any money in tho fund on which any
warrant was presented. There was always
somoono there to cash the warrant at a
discount then after dark tho money would
come out of the treasury. The fuslonlsts
had an opportunity to correct those
wrongs, but they did not do It. They run
things too much the same old way. nail
road passes were Just as flush as ever.
They would ride on a pass and then charge
tho state 3 cents per mile for doing It,
under tho head of expenses. Men were In
stalled In office who gambled and drank
so much that they were disqualified for
tending a sawmill. There were many black
pots In tho fusion administration.

Deputy County Attorney I. J. Dunn of
Douglas county was at the state bouse this
afternoon examining the records of the pur
chase, of the Burt county bonds by Treas
urer Stueter. Incidentally he looked over
the books in tho treasurer's office with a
view to obtaining some light regarding
tho charges contained In tho Indictment ot
former' Treasurer J. B. Meserve.
"I cannot say whether or .not Mr. Shields
will Institute proceedings against Mr.
Ehitfer for alleged wrong-doing In the Burt
c'pubty deal," said Mr. Dunn. "About all
he! knows ot the case Is what he haa seen
In the newspapers, Tbero has been some
talk ot beginning proceedings, but Mr.
Shields has made no Investigation, and has
no official knowledge) of anything wrong
In the Burt county purchase. I examined
the registration of tho bonds In the auditor's
offlco this morning, and what Information
I obtained will bo reforred to him. I came
tovLtncoln partly on that matter and partly
on others."
"Will Mr. Shields prosecute former
Treasurer Meserve under tho Indictment?"
was asked.
"I canot say anything definite as to that,"
replied Mr. Dunn. "I presume, however,
that If any evidence can be found to sup
port the charges tho case will be prose
cuted. Our attention1 now Js directed to
other matters and wo havo not yet taken
up the Mcscrvo Indictment."

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Jan. 31. (Special.) Sanford
Parker of Spencer, Neb., and W. T. Wills
of Butte, Neb., appeared before tho Board
ot Educational Lands and Funds yes
terday and today in behalf of settlers In
Boyd county, whoso rights to certain lands
under the homestead laws of tho United
States for lands lying within tho boundary
ot the abandoned Fort Randall military
reservation are In conflict with tho rights
of tho stato under an act of congress al
lowing tho state to direct Indemnity se
lection of lands In the odd-numbered sec
tions of tho reservation In futl satisfac
tion ot all lands lost In places throughout
tbo state.
Whon questioned, Mr. Parker said: "I
know of no answer more applicable to
these vexed questions than that stated In
my argument to the board to thb effect
that It Involved tho question of homes or
no homes to nineteen se'ttlers on that
reservation."
As to tho statements of facts, he said
that in the year 1895, tho reservation being
no longer needed for military purposes, an
order ot abandonment was made and the
reservation turned over to tho secretary
of the Interior.
"These abandonments occurred several
years after Hoyd county was .organized.
Congress, In disposing of tho lands within
tho reservation provided that tho odd
numbered sections thoreln would bo dis
posed of to actual settlers only, and that
the state of Nebraska would bo allowed
to make Indemnity selection, for the pur
pose of purchasing lands to cover the
losses sustained by tho state from tho
odd-numbered sections.
Claim Prior Settlement.
"Prior to tho passage of the act of con
gress restoring tho landa In the reserva
tion to the public domain and prior to tho
extension of the public survey to Include
said lands these settlors settled upon and
.have Improved and occupied the land In
volved up to tho present time.
Owing to the lands being unsurveyed
at tho date of their rcspectlvo settlements
thereon, these settlers had" no way of
knowing whether they were upon surveyed
or unsurveyed lands. Following tho proc
lamation ot the president, opening said
lands to entry, In due time applications
were received at tho United States land
offlco at O'Neill, Neb., at which time theso
settlers upon the land now Involved mado
application, alleging the date ot their ac
tual settlement, which applications were
refused by the United States land offlco,
owing to the conflict with the rights of
the state of Nebraska, from which ruling
tho settlers appealed and carried their
case through the various departments, but
received adverse decision, owing to tne
preferred rights accorded the state within
which to make the Indemnity selection.
The "matter was brought before the last
legislature of the state, resulting In tho
passago ot a bill for tho relief of these
settlers, directing the governor to exe
cute a deed to relinquish said lands to en
able the sottlers to perfect thqlr entries
under tho homestead Jaw. The bill en
countered no objections, but the reason
for the delay In carrying out the pro
visions thereof Is due to a certain legal
proposition, which has been met, and mat
ters now Indicate an early adjustment, In
the Interest of the settlers."
Peralatent EJort to Adjnat.
8pcaklng further ot the matter. Mr.
Parker asserted that this much vexed ques
tion had been persistently followed for the
last six years through the various branches
of tho land service and the courts ot the
state, wherein certain ot the land claims
were tied up by Injunction proceedings.
AIbo the administrative officers of the stato
have been appealod to from time to time.
Continuing, ho said: "The principal ob
jection to an Immediate relinquishment of
tho lands by the state was due to tha stato
being restricted to the matter ot selection
of Indemnity to Fort Randall reservation.
Through the endeavor encountered by
Sonator Millard this obstacle has been over
come and the state Is now at liberty to
make Indemnity selection anywhere In the
state in llou of the lands sought to ba re
linquished to these settlers.
'There la also a prior statute ot this stato
authorizing a deed of relinquishment to
lands selected wherein there Is a priority
of right established by a homesteader.
"Tho government Is willing to do what
It can for tho relief ot these settlers. Tho
people of the state, through Its representa
tives In our last legislature, have expressed
their willingness. The present officers ot
tho state aro ready and willing to do their
utmost In the premises, knowing, as they'
do. tho trials and hardships that Jhese set
tlers endured In seeking homes where the
land lay. more especially to settlers In
volved who havo settled upon these land
In the utmost good faith, and now to be de
prlved of their homes and fruits of their
labors would be unjust. I might say In ad
dition, an Invitation was extended to the
board to visit these settlers with the view
of fully satisfying themselves as to the
bona fide of their respective cases."
Commissioner Follmer has signified his
willingness to do so and within a few days
will visit Boyd county.

KEARNEY, Neb., Jan. 81. (Special Tele
gram.) Tho second day's session ot the
Farmers' Institute began this morning. The
representatives ot the various cream sepa
rators, six In number, bad their Innings
right at tho start and gave demonstrations
of the points ot superiority ot their ma
chines. Among the Interesting exhibits
this morning was a collection ot over forty
varieties of farm and garden seeds grown
In Buffalo county last year by H. C. Green
of Kearney. S. A. D. Henlln also made an
exhibit of seeds and samples ot flavoring
extracts. The subject ot "Orcharding," by
J. L. Brown, was particularly Interesting,
principally for tho reason that he discarded
tho accepted theories and gavo his own
practical Ideas regarding tree planting and
fruit growing In central Nebraska, and par
ticularly In Buffnlo county. II. D. Watson
entertained tho large audlenco with a talk
on "Alfalfa and Forago Crops," and his
thirteen years of investigation, experiment
ing and practical experience have made
htm a standard on this subject.
Tho afternoon session was especially In
teresting to stock growers because of the
lecture of Dr." Peters of the university ex
periment station on "Tbo Prevention ot
Animal Diseases." The lecture was con
fined to four heads of the subject, suggested
by tho audience as follows: Cornstalk
diseases In horses and cattle; blackleg In
cattle; turberculosls or consumption, and
cholera, or swlno plague. Dr. Peters does
not advance any theories, but gives the facts
regarding these diseases as ho has found
them In his regular practice. "Tho Grow
ing of Pork for Market" was handled by O.
Hull of Alma, aud this was tho closo ot tho
afternoon program. The Kearney lnstltuto
s said by those who havo attended theso
meetings throughout tho stato to have been
ono ot the most successful and Interesting
of any held.

proper romody for ailment that
re duo directly to effects of tho
cllmnte. For 1 14 ycurs I have with
stood the changeable climate of tho
United States.
"I havo always been a very healthy man,
but of coursn subject to tho llttlo affections
which aro duo to sudden changes In tho
cllmnto and temperature. During my long
llfo I havo known n grent many rcmodloa
for coughs, colds and diarrhoea.
"I hod always supposed theso nffcctloas
to ho different diseases. For tho last ten
or fifteen years I havo been reading Dr.
Hartmnn's writings. I havo learned much
from his books, ono thing In particular:
that these affections nro tho samo and that
thoy aro properly called catnrrh.
"As for Dr. Hnrtmun'H remedy,
Fc.ru. na, I have found It to bo tha
best, if not the only, reliable remedy'
for these affections. It has been my
standby for many years, and I at
tribute my good health and extreme
old age to this remedy.
"It exactly mcota all my requirements.
It protects me from tho ovll effects of sud
den changes; It keeps mo tn good appetite;
It gives mo strength; It kcops my blood In
good circulation. I hnvo come to rely upon
It almost entirely for tho many llttlo things
for which I need medicine.
"I bollovo It to ho valtmblo to old peo
ple, although I hnvo no doubt It Is Just as
good for tho young. I should bo glad If
my slnccro testimony should become tho
means ot others using this remedy, becaueo
I bellevo It -to bo tho greatest remedy of
this nge for catarrhal diseases.
"When epidemics of ,1a grlppo first begnn
to make tholr appcoranco In this country
I wns a sufferer from this disease.
"I hud several long sieges with
the grip. At first I did not know
that I'crti-iia was a remedy for this
disease. When I heard that la
grippe was epidemic catarrh, I tried
Pc-ru-na for la grippe and found it
to be just the thing.
"It has saved mo sovcral times from a
siege of tho grip. I foci perfectly snfo from
this tcrrlblo malady bo long as I have Pc
rutia at hand. I hope that Dr. Hartmaa
may live to bo as old as I nm, to continue
tho good work ot teaching people tho value
of IiIb great remedy, Pcruna.
