All the Judicial district nominations have been made and the only thing left now to do la to get out the vote and the shouting home. Tb fuvlonista have two head quarters with which to do thta and the republicans have one, but from the fre quent visits to the popullsta here by Char lea Scott, the Omaha head of the aggregation, It la evident that all la not harmony be tween the two heads. The feeling of dis trust that was worked up at Grand Island and at Columbus la still a mighty spectra and from appeaxancee la Just now working overtime. The result Is that the democrats are. afraid of the popullsta and the popu llsta are afraid of the democrats. At Co lumbus the democrats spent a whole even ing before the convention trying to figure that It would be better to have the popullsta nominate Judge Sullivan and then for the democrats to break loose and name Its own regents In tha hope that the populists would da the same thing and thus get up such a rivalry between the two parties that every one of them would come out and vote to'eee which waa really the stronger and Judge Sullivan would profit thereby. The popu llsta wouldn't stand It. however, and neither would Mr. Bryan and so the scheme fell through. It Is believed that this feeling of distrust, one for the other. Is what occas ioned the splltup In the headquarters. In the meantime the republican headquarters Is a busy place. At this time Chairman Undsey Is In Chicago attending a meeting of the National Republioan league, but the work he aet In motion Is still going on , Jjust the eame.

White today filed with Governor .', Mickey certlflcatea of satisfaction In the ,' nature of affidavits from the young boys. Inmates of the Tabltha home, who are now a work on the Wlsner farm, telling that they are well treated and satisfied with the management of the home. Rev. White made a personal Investigation of the condition of the boya at work on tha farm and he reported that Inasmuch as this part of the home had been In op eration only since last spring, he found everything aa well aa could be expected. The farm building in .which the boya live and the school Is taught, he aald, was OxZS feet, with six rooms and a pantry be low and three rooms above. In front of thla la s blacksmith shop, carpenter ahop ad a buggy and wood house. The atruc tura la three smaller buildings put to , getber. and In the renter one of these is a large room used aa a school room and dining . halL Sunday achool la held each Sunday morning and aa often aa a travel ing preacher comes along church services are held. Tha achool Is taught by Prof. Brich, a No Tax 'THERE'S A REASON-" Selected A 10 days trial works wonders. Look la each package for mtnia f iKa Omaha Mieh school arid ! the State unlvers'tr. and a greater portion I of the time of the pupils la devoted to elementary agriculture. .The smaller beys under It years of a a of whom there are six In the home, attend school In the dav- time and all of the Inmates attend at j night, except one, who, having attended j the Lincoln High school, la exrused from ' study. ' ' I have a son at the home." ;ald Rev. j White, "IS years of age. srd he told me h" waa perfectly satisfied. I ate with the boys snd found the fare as good aa or.e could expect, snd Just a little better that day. because the superintendent of the farm had killed some wild clucks and we ate them. There are two lakes on the farm full of good fish and the boys hve plenty of time to fish, and whenever they dcrtre It fish Is served. At present two boys are doing the cooking, but this Just began three weeks sgo, when the family whloh was living at the home left. The superintendent Is now looking fot a good family and before long the home will be prealded over by a woman, ss It has been. I secured affidavits from the boys that they were well treated and satisfied, and 1 fell sure thev are from a little incident that occurred while I waa there. I told the boys that T had come to take them back to Uncoln. and every one of them set up a cry that he wanted to star there, and one of the little fellows cried plteously. It Is the Intention of the superintendent to build a new chapel and sod the yard Just as soon as possible, and If this cry agalnat the home had not been started it would probably have been started by this tune." The delay of the state officers in not doing something or quitting Is certainly working a hardship on the home, whether deserved or not. Governor Mickey an nounced that h waa going to the home to make a personal Investigation, but so far he has not gone. Rev. Zimmerman, a collector for the home, was In to find out thla morning what the governor had dis covered on hia trip. Mr. Zimmerman stated that It waa Impossible for him to collect any money for the cause until after the governor made some kind of a report. "Everywhere I called." he said, "the people told me an Investigation was in rrnffr'8a and that they would not contribute until something definite was known of the con dition of the home." The governor, how ever, waa busy with the Bosrd of Purchase and Supplies and was not available. Prompt Payment of Taxes. The reports received at the office of the state treasurer from a majority of the county treasurers of the state are to the effect that fully 90 per rent of all taxes were paid by the 1st of June. This is due partially to tha prosperous condition of the people and partly to the fact that It Is cheaper to borrow money and pay the taxes than It la to pay the penalty. On real property the taxes delinquent draw Interest from May 1. and according to the reports received there will bo little Inter est paid In. The fact that 90 per cent of tha taxes have been paid Is a wonderful showing. Inasmuch as It Is not often that 99 per cent la ever collected In one year. Testerday the treasurer's office took in lil.OOO from various sources, the State uni versity paying In $16,000 from matriculation and other feea. This Is the highest amount of money ever paid In by the university at one time. Pnrehaslas; Soppllea. The Board of Purchase and Supplies waa at It again today buying supplies for state Institutions. The matter of the purchase by Items, aa suggested by Treasurer Mor tenaen. waa discussed, but whether It will be adopted la a question. It Is said Sec retary Marsh and Treasurer Mortchsen were In favor of It and the other members desired more time to think about It. Dodge Mortgage Record. FREMONT, Neb., Oct.

MAY ONLY SETTLE POINTS IN TREATY ollrltar General f Dointuloa Creates Considerable Surprise Wheal Ha iainonrri Hla Oplolan to the Members of Commlaslon. LONDON, Oct. 2. Sir Kdward Carbon, the solicitor general, consumed the morn ing session of the Alaskan Boundary com mission today In endeavoring to refute the arguments of David T. Watson and Hannls Tsylor of counsel for the I'nlted States, especially protesting against Mr. Taylor's contention that the trend of the const could only apply to the political coast line and not to the physical coast line. He also maintained that the principle of acquiescence was not applicable to the present dispute and somewhat surprised the nudience by declaring that under the powers of the treaty of IOCS the commis sioners had no authority to define quea- tlons submitted to them and that they could neither lay down the boundary nor decide what constituted the coast. All the commissioners could do was to answer questions submitted to them In the treaty either negatively or affirmatively. If they gave certain answers they might make matters more confused than ever and open up a new aerlea" of diplomatic tangles. The solicitor general concluded with sn eloquent reference to Great Britain's un willingness to give up any of Ita subjects Into the control of other nations. He de clared he thought the republic might think the commission was slow and that counsel were wasting time: but no time and no money would ever be wasted If the long- landing dispute between the two great and friendly nations could be solved by the tribunal. When Jacob M. Dickinson of counsel for the I'nlted States rose to conclude the arguments the room waa filled with specta torr. Ho commenced by belittling the minute examinations of maps and bicker ing over details, declaring that the cao could only be settled by grasping the cen tral Idea animating the original negotia tors. He proceeded to take up Attorney General Flnlay's points, dealing lucidly with the broad phase of the dlcpute and enlivening the proceedings with an occa sional story. He was still speaking when the commission adjourned until October 5. Mr. Dickinson does not expect to con clude until the evening of October t.
