MNCOLI. Neb., July 6. (Special.)
William Rhea, alia Klein, condemned to
hAng on Friday next within the walls of
the Nebraska rcnltentlary south of this
city, must nieci the fate meted out to lilm
by a jury of his peers. . Rhea's last hope
of executive Interference has been dashed
to the ground, and he now knows the
truth. .
Yesterday Rhea received a visit from
Governor Mickey.- The chief executive
found It a duty most unpleai-ant, but he
did not shirk It. , Rheu-'s friends had
brought strong Influences to bear to per
suade ths executive thut the condemned
man was deserving of clemency, but these
pleas were of no avail the governor gave
notice months ago, when tile agitation was
Inaugurated that the Jury nnd the courts
had passed on Rhea's case according to
the law; that the law was supreme and
he dared not trifle with It; that It would
require testimony not adduced at the trial
In Dodge county tending to lend a measure
of extenuation, and if. no such evidence
was forthcoming there could be no Inter
lerence by himself with the mandate of
the law. This was the governor's decision,
and that be had adhered to It firmly was
evidenced by tin? mission which took him
to Rhea's prison.
Rhea received the governor graciously
and heard the final words from the lips
of tho executive which scaled his doom.
The governor told the unfortunate pris
oner that Interference with the Judgment
of the law was out of the question, and
he advised Rhea to make haste to prepare
for his fate. - Rhea listened with blanched
face, and although he had grown talkative
during the past few Tueeks. the decision
by the only man. to. whom he could look
for hope' left him suddenly speechless and
cowering in his cell. An hour later Rhea
State association, which nas been In prog
ress In Lincoln at the city park for the
past week, has adjourned in peace, despite
the civic strife that Its coming engendered.
When the campmeetlng first began ten
dnys sgo a few residents in the neighbor
hood of the park entered a protest, claiming
that the use of the prk .or campmeetlng
purposes meant that the grass would be
trampled and destroyed, the young itrees
broken down and the place seriously dam
aged. Councilman Rentier, as chairman
of the city park committee, had granted
the permit for the use of ne park by the
campmeetlng, and he refused to rescind his
sctlon. The objectors took their case be
fore the council a week ago, requesting the
adoption of a resolution rebuking the coun
cilman nnd ordering the association to va
cate. The day following Mr. Pentser and
the Free Methodists enlisted the sympa
thies of Mayor Adams, who Issued an order
upon the police department not to Interfere
with the campmeetlng until further orders.
The council thereupon found itself Impo
tent to enforce Its resolution, and the
campmeetlng folks remained In undisturbed
possession until their voluntary departure
today.
Conntr Clerks In Arrears.
The labor commissioner Is again experi
encing delays in the accomplishment of his
work by the failure of county clerks to
send In the data which they are required
by law to send. Among other things they
are required to forward to the labor com
missioner by July 1 complete reports of the
acreage of the various kinds of grain In
their respective counties, up to date only
about half have reported, and It has been
Impossible for the commissioner to make
tho usual compilation of Nebraska's acre
ago of grains.
There appears to be no penalty attaching
to the failure of county clerks to send In
these returns, but It Is within the power
of the commissioner to mandamus them and
thus Impose a penalty upon each In the
way of costs of suit, which tie may see fit
to do In case they neglect the plain duty
imposed much longer.

FIGHT AGAINST THE CANAL
Action is Likely to Be Long; Delayed,
by Debate In Colombian
Congress.
NEW YORK, July 6. In the Colombian
senate vigorous objections to the Hay-,
Herran canal treaty have been made be
cause it does not bear the signature of
President Marroquln, says a Herald dis
patch from Bogota under date of Friday.
There have been stormy discussion over
this point. Dr. Louis Carlos Rico, the
minister of foreign affairs, delivered a two
hours address during Which he declared
that the treaty should not bear the presi
dent's signature before final approval.
Former President Caro. In a speech, In
sisted that the government should defend
the treaty and not leave the responsibility
to the senate. At that Juncture the senate
adjourned. , The discussion Is being con
tinued. . , , .
The Caucan delegation 'In the house of
representatives moved that there be prelim
inary debates on. the treaty question,
The motion was defeated by a vote of 33
to 9 on the ground that no. debates were
possible until the senate had transmitted
the treaty to the house.
It Is said that four members of the house
canal committee are decidedly In favor of
the Hay-Herran treaty, wnlle three are
against the measure and two are doutful,
one of whom Is a government partisan.
The canal campaign Is now on In earnest

be protracted and definite action long

Sentiment against Executions
The sanction of Lincoln citizens to the
protest against the law Is Inspired by a
feeling of revulsion against making the
city notea as a penitentiary city, rather
than a state capital and a center of edu
cation. With each succeeding execution
the citys name is heralded all over the
country through the medium of the news
paper dispatches and the notoriety thus de
rived is a detriment. In the estimation of
many of its interested clUiens. Because
of this opposition and tha reasons for it
there la good Justification for the prediction
that an attempt will be made to repeal the
law at the next legislative aesslon. The
movement evidently will not lack for sup
porters the . legislators from other counties
favoring repeal because they think their
constituents and the courts competent to
administer Justice without inviting Inter
ference from a sentimental governor, while
Lincoln and Lancaster county may be ex
pected to line up on the same side of the
jontroversy because they don't want , the
executions.!

A monthly reception at the home of Its
president Mrs. George Law Smith, Is an In
novation in the California club, the largest
club of Ban Francisco, and one of the most
Induenltal clubs of California. It Is said
that this feature haa been introduced as a
medium of acquaintance, as It has been rec
ognised that sociability had been too largely !
eliminated from the organization. In Its '
effort for others. This Is but another Illus
tration of the necessity as well as the de
sirability of a social side of club work, and
many clubs all over the country that. In
their earnestness to accomplish much
needed reforms and like things, have
neglected the social features in their own
work are beginning to feel the consequence
in the lack of members and of the Interest
of many who serve the cause materially
with their dues, their social Influence and
their presence.
The annual meeting and election of offi
cers of the Ahamo auxiliary, I. T. U. No.
190, was held Monday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. J. E. Emblem, 11K North
Nineteenth street. The election was the
chief business, Mrs. Robert Gilder being
made president; Mrs. W. C. Turner, vice
president; Mrs. James Southard, secretary
Mrs. Laurie J. Quinby, treasurer; Mrs. I. j!
Copenharve, chaplain, and Mrs. A. E. Bull
ler guide. There was some discussion as
to whether or not the meetings should be
continued during the summer, and It was
decided that they should contlnuo as usual.
As a result of a recent card party given
by the auxiliary $17 was turned into the
treasury as net.
