LINCOLN, April .-(fpecial.)-Treaaurer
Morteneen and Superintendent McBrlen left
tonight for Peru to attend the matting of
the State Normal board tomorrow. Mem
bers Orrgg and Tawney were here last
night and held a short Informal meeting
with the two Lincoln members of the board,
but no program waa arranged for the meet
ing tomorrow.
It la probable that the board will not
take up the matter of selecting a superin
tendent for the Kearney Normal because
Rev. L. p. Ludden, a member of the board,
I abaent In New York, .and for the flint
time will necessarily be abeent from the
hoard meeting. The way the board la lined
tip now should an attempt be made to se
lect a principal the vote. In all probability,
would result In a tie. It la considered
robable that the board, when It does se
lect the principal, will chooae x-8uperin-tendent
Fowler, notwithstanding Ma an
nouncement that he was not a candidate
for the place and would not accept It.
Should Delsell content to vote for Fowler
tomorrow the former auperintendent will
receive four Vote and be elected.
Incidentally, the board might consider at
thla meeting, or come future meeting, the
Tirlncipnlahlp of the Peru Normal, now
held by Superintendent Crabtree. Mr.
Crabtree is n protege of Tom Majors, and
was elected auperintendent of the school
soon after the exposure of his connection
with a teachers' employment bureau at the
same time he was accredited high school
inspector. He displaced Superintendent
Clark. Clark Incurred the enmity of Ma
jors and the latter harassed him continu
ally until he Anally secured his scalp.
At the. time of the election of Crabtree,
Majors, In the presence of Clark, made
this remsrk to the board:
"This board can now congratulate Itself
nu having a man for principal who 1 ur
1-lnrl."
Lincoln members of the board feel that
in letting out Clark at the demand of Ma
jors they lost a splendid educator for the
state, and are now seriously considering
getting him back In some kind of a posi
tion. The feeling of the majority of the
board now la so Intense against the mi
nority that It would take very little urging
to have them put Clark back In his old
place and let out Crabtree, whom Majors
snys Is his kind".
Mr. Clark Is now selling life Insurance In
South Dakota and has made application
for a chair In the Kearney Normal school.
He will In aU probability secure this posi
tion, if nothing better.
McGllton Acting; Governor.
It Is Acting Governor McGllton now In
stead of Lieutenant Governor McGllton,

and grace, filling every nook and .corner
of the chair made vacant by the absence
of Governor Mickey, who is In Texas for

ernor McGllton will listen to protests
against issuing a requisition for the re
turn to Falls City fof Perry Meyera. who

utory assault. The complaining witness Is

HOLDREGE, Neb.. April 30 (Special.!
The bankers of group nine met here
yesterday. It was the largest meeting the
group ever held, over forty bankers be
ing present. The puld'shed program waa
carried out In full. The election of officers
resulted as follows: C. Ifllldreth, Frank
lin, president; C. C. Vernon, Stratton, vice
president; R. V. McGrew, Naponee, sec
retary; W. F. Dobbin, Bertrand. treasurer.
The following resolutions were adopted,
and will probably give rise to considerable
discussion among the bankers of the
state:
We, the members of group nine of the
Nebraska State Bankers' association, in
convention assembled, do herebv express
our disapproval of the branch banking svs
tem In any and all of Its various phases.
We consider It dangerous to public and pri
vate Interests.
We consider all attempted legislation bv
congress with the Intent to give banks
authority to Issue assets currency as III
advised and Inconsistent with sound bnnk
Inc. We do not favor public ownership of the
means of producing trsde or transporta
tion by either the state or national gov
ernment. We believe the interests of the
people. Individually and collectively, can
he subserved best by leaving all occupa
tions open to private or corporate enter
prise, but when any occupation partakes
of the nature of a monopoly or by any
means becomes monopolised, we favor
stringent control over the affair of the
individual or corporation engaged In such
occupation by either the state or national
government, or both.
We regard with concern the growth of
trusts or combinations which aim at the
restriction or monopoly of production or
distribution of any article of commerce,
and we consider such trust or combina
tion a menace to the financial or social
welfare of the public. We heartily com
mend all railroad legislation, both state
and national, which is now or shall be
enacted for the purpose of suppressing
such trust or combination.
We endorse the efforts of President
Roosevelt giving additional power to the
Interstate Commerce commission.
"arveyors at Dakota
DAKOTA CITY, Neb., April 20 -(apt -
clal.) The surveying party which arrived
In this place on Monday morning has been
busily at work since that time between
this place and Homer. From their move
ments there is no question but the party
was sent out by the Great Northern rail
way. The line surveyed by them started
from the bluff just east of Homer and
terminated by making a Junction with the
Short Ine railroad about a mile north of
this place, where the road makes a turn
westward towards Jackson. The Survey Is
an air line from this Junction point to
Homer. There seems to be no question but
that the survey relates to the building of
the Ashland-Sioux City connection of the
Burlington & Missouri and Great Northern
railways. Twice before have surveys been
made for this link through this county In
close proximity to where the present sur
vey has been made. The present survey
went through this place three blocks west
of the court house. ', The opinion In this
locality is that the line will be built In
time to transport this season's crop.

The annual continental congress of the
Daughters of the American Revolution, in
session at Washington this week, Is a
serious affair. Considering the alms of
the society, Its much needed work and Its
possibilities, It seems a pity that the most
conspicuous activity of the convention
should be Its election of officers. Organised
to perpetuate the spirit of the men and
women who achieved American independ
ence and to educate American youth and
adopted ritlsens In the principles upon
which the government Is founded, the con
test of various factions of the society to
elect favorite candidates to Its presidency
that has been In progress these past few
months and hss given the society so muoh
questionable notoriety, not only robs It
of some of Its strongest possibilities for
good, but reflects upon the seriousness and
dignity of all organised womanhood.

MOTORS FOR LIGHT SERVICE
Union Facifio Determines to Install t
Number of the Car.
REVOLUTION IN BRANCH LINE TRAFFIC
New Machine Will Admit of Maay
Departures from Present Prae
tlca and Provide Better
Accommodations.
It has been officially announced that lh
Union Pacific will Immediately begin the
construction of a number of motor cars
similar In design to motor car No. 1.
which left Omaha last Sunday morning
for a week's service tests between Grand
Island and 8t. Paul on the Ord branch.
"The company will Immediately begin
the construction of additional motor cars,
much larger than the car Just completed
and which is being successfully operated,"
said Vice President and General Manager
Mohler of the Vnlon Pacific. "There Is
little doubt that, when this service Is fully
established on branch lines, pi'ople can be
accommodated at Intermediate points
rather than entirely at stations by taking
them on or letting them off cars. There
is no question but what this method of
transportation will revolutionize the, work
on branch lines, and to some extent on
main lines. It will also permit the con
struction by older lines of branches of a
less expensive character than at present,
enabling them to very materially Improve
the service and facilities for the benefit
of the people tributary to their present and
projected lines."
Vnlon Pacific officials sre receiving all
manner of communications relative to
motor car No. 1, people nil over the coun
try being eager for detailed Information
as to what manner of car It Is.
