ADOPT AMENDMENTS TO CONSTITUTION
Bryan Baao.net Will Be Occasion for
liver Mfi Taking- I sane wltb
Proposition.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Dec. 81.- (Special Telegram.)
The State Teachers' association tonight
elected these officers : E. J. Bodwell of
Omaha, president; Etta Brown of Cherry
county, vice president; A. O. Thomas of
Kearney, secretary; A. I Caviness of Lin
coln, trensurer; W. H. Gardner of Auburn,
member of executive committee; M. U.
Snodgrass of Wayne, member of reading
circle. The naming delegates, three from
each congressional district, were chosen
late this afternoon, and under the amended
constitution they at once met and selected
the ticket. There was no opposition In the
general session.
A harmonious session Is what the teachers
are having at their annual state meeting
and so pronounced Is this harmony that
the amendments proposed by the com
mittee laat night were adopted at the busi
ness meeting this morning with very little
discussion, the meeting lasting barely thirty
minutes. '
The amendment adoptes reduces the
executive committee to four members; re
duce the sections to six; cut out the educa
tional council; permit auxiliary sections to
be organised upon petition of not less than
twenty-five persons. These amendments. It
Is expected, will unify the work of the as
sociation and will considerably decrease the
administration expense. It was thought at
first that a hard fight would b made to
top any .effort Wat would tend to decrease
the number of sections, but the executive
committee and others got together last
night and affected a compromise which
went through without any trouble.
A matter that Is troubling the schools In
the smaller towns and upon which they are
thinking seriously of taking some ectlon Is
that many of their better teacher are
being drawn to Lincoln or Omaha to teach
In the school there. One interested party
from Gage county was here this morning
threatening to get out' an Injunction to
prevent teacher from . resigning to marry'
or go to other towns to teach after they j
had signed a contract to teach in one par- I
tlcular school. This man said: "Omaha. !
Lincoln and the young; men of Nebraska
are doing- more to tear down the country
school than any other force In the state."
This man wants the country towns to
organise to prevent Qmaha and 1-lncoln
and Cupid from getting1 the best teachers.
From ono town In the state It Is said ten
of the best teachers have been transferred
to Omaha, It Is Nebraska custom when
ever a country school board gets hold of
what they consider one of the best tench-
era In the land, the l.r..r i.n. . .
her or him by offering better opportunities
and better salary. '
Thl afternoon from 4 until s-sn nviv
a reception Was given in honor of Dr. Hale
at the residence of Prof p.rk m,.
Latin section and many other were callers,
Stephens' Doom for President.
Considerable talk ha been going the
round today that Superintendent Stephen
of this cltyxwlll be the next president of
the association. Not only Is he a formid
able candidate because of his ability, but
from the further fact that the, association
la full of the Idea of cutting down expense
and If Mr. Stephens Is the lucky man hi
hostelry expense will be saved.
Tomorrow Superintendent Fowler and his
office force. will be at home In hi office
to the teachers and all other who desire
to shake hands and be sociable. The rooms
are being- tastefully decorated. 'Tomorrow
afternoon a reception will be tendered
former Chancellor CanAeld and that even
ing he will lecture at St. Paul's, church.

Reeeptloa to Be Political,
While the members of the Jacksonlan
club In Omaha tomorrow night are having
their love feast, the free silver element.
admitting- Its mistake and taking unto Itself,
the gold element, down here In Lincoln an
other portion of the democratic party will
be perfecting arrangements for a banquet
and reception to offset the work of the
Jacksonians. This will be the reception to
be tendered William J. Bryan upon his re
turn from Europe, and It Is expected It will
occur on the r.lght of the ISth. The pub
lished statements that this reception would
he a nonpartisan affair Is erroneous. It
I will be a strictly partisan affair, and the
on'v Pttrty t0 lt w111 be tno Brvan Prty.
' Whether the committee has lt from Mr,
I Bryan or not Its member are not slow to
' ay tnat "t tnl reception he will have
something to say tnat win. iigurauveiy
speaking, take the hide off of the element
of the democratic party that after desert
ing In Its and 1900 Is trying to manipulate
its affairs now. He will say also, so lt Is
reported on good authority, something that
will either put a brace- In the backs of the
Jacksonians or alienate them forever.
There will be no compromise talk at this
reception. Its managers say it will be a
Bryan reception In every sense of the word
and it Is expected that the "peerless leader'
will state his stand In the coming campaign
and tell Just what he wants the party to
do. The speakers on this occasion will be
from out In the state only and there will
be no others called In' to testify. The prep
rations now in progress are for one of the
biggest receptions and political meetings
ever held In the state. One of its special
objects Is to put a damper on the Influence
the Jacksonlan banquet may have In,, state
and national affairs.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. Dec. 81. tSpeclal Tele
gram.) Representative Mondell appeared
this morning before the board appointed by
President Roosevelt to hear persons Inter
ested relative to the general land laws of
the Tnlted States, with a view of formu
lating a report as to whether such laws
should be chsnged. Mr. Mondell devoted
himself entirely to the fact that the Do
minion of Canada, through Its generous
land laws, Is drawing monthly large num
bers of most excellent settlers mm this
country across the line Into British Co
lumbia. ' The policy of the United SUUi."
said Congressman Mondell, "of recent
years has been to hamper homestead
makers lather than to assist them In seek
ing homes, and Canada, evidently profit'
Ing by our mistake. Is offering a most
generous proposition to secure sturdy set
tlers to fill up Its vast domain in British
Columbia. Over there a homesteader mav
take up a tract of 200 acres, and after be
ing upon the land two years may purchase
at the rate of $1 per acre, and In addition
may take adjacent land upon most reas
onable terms, and also may secure long
term leases to other adjacent lands. It
enables a sturdy young man with a few
hundred dollars most alluring opportunity
to obtain a homestesd of greater extent
than we offer for less money.
"The climate of British Columbia, the nor-
tlon now being settled by Americans Is
not more rigorous than that of Idaho, Wy
oming or Montana and In reality the lands
are somewhat better. In my own country
alone," said Mr. Mondell In conclusion, "at
least twenty-five families have given up
their homes within the past year and emi
grated to British Columbia. The states
of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Ne
braska have suffered to some extent. I
would advocate a more generous Inter
pretation of the existing homestead laws
or their modification along more liberal
lines In order to check this emigration of
our citisens to Canada."
Bailey to Speak la Lincoln.
Representative Burkett today received a
letter from Governor W. J. Bailey, of Kan
sas, formally accepting the Invitation ex
tended by the Toung Men's Republican
club of Lincoln to address them at their
annual banquet to be held February 12, In
commemoration of the birthday of Abra
ham Lincoln. Representative Burkett Is
enc.eavcri'ig to secure two well known
speakers, members of the house of repre
sentatives, to go over to Lincoln for this
occasion, but Is not yet prepared to an
nounce their names. It la safe to say,
however, that there will be material pres
ent from a national standpoint to make
the February dinner a most Interesting oc

ENDS BEET SUGAR CAMPAIGN
Factory at LeaTltt Flalahea Work for
Seasoa Trlth Record at W.SIO,
800 Pounds. '
FREMONT. Neb.. Dec. n.j-(8peclal.)-The
Standard Beet Sugarcompany's factory at
Loavltt has closed, down for the, season
after a very successful run." though' more
beets would have been gladly received. The
total amount of sugar refined this year was
8.S16.S00 pounds. Thirty-three thousand, four
hundred and forty-five tons of beets were
worked up, about 8,000 tons less than last
season. Their percentage of sugar was so
much higher that much more sugar was
made this year than last, the average
being 16 per cent against 12 per cent last
year. An average of 250 men wens em
ployed working In two shifts night and
day during the season.
In many respects this has been the most
successful campaign the company has had.
The beets from any particular field aver
aged about the same. Those from Irri
gated lands In the western part of the
state ran tha highest and as the west
ern farmers made good money from the
crop lt Is expected that the acreage out
there will be larger next season. . in this
vicinity the crop proved very unsatisfac
tory. The beets were of a good quality
but the tonnage waa too small to show a
good margin of profit and some of the
men who have stuck to beets are becoming
discouraged over the outcome. While the
factory has been closed down a few men
are still employed cleaning up and there
will be the uaual small repairs made be
fore the next season. Most of this year's
sugar will eventually reach the retailers In
eastern Nebraska and western Iowa.

Robbers Drop Mrro-Ulyccrlae.
WEST JXUNT, Neb.. Dec. 31-Speclal.V-The
coal, lumber and grain office of the
Nye-Schnelrler-Fowler company, In this
city, waa broken Into last night, but ho
robbery effected. Upon the manager going
to the office this morning he found a par
tially filled broken bottle of nltro-glycerlno
near the stove, together with fragments of
glass and a quantity of tha liquid running
over the floor. It waa evident that the
burglars had been attempting to warm or
thaw out the explosive and In doing so
had accidentally broken the bottle. About
a fourth of a teaeupful remained In the
bottom of tho bottle and was pronounced
by Chemist Kadlsh, who examined It, to
be the real article. It Is presumed that tha
bottle had been secreted nearby and be
coming frosen and not available for uko
the burglars had obtained an entrance to
the coal office for the purpose ef warming
It and In doing so had accidentally broken
the bottle. What their ulterior motive
waa is left to conjecture, as no other at
tempt was made during the night, nor did
any one notice anything unusual outside of
tho fact that a number of hard looking
strangers hsve been In town for a few days
past. Nothing was disturbed In ths office.
