Chairman Tsejrarden of the congressional
wminltte reached Lincoln this afternoon
and other delegates are expected In t anight.
So far there Is only one announced candi
dal 'for delegate. Judge J. B. St rods of
Lancaster county, who Is Instructed fjr
'President Roosevelt .Chairman Hayward.
of Oto county, lias been mentioned as
stood timber for a delegate, but today he
aid ho was not a candidate. He will not
attend th convention. One or two ether
HUM have been mentioned, but with the
exception of Judge Strode, no one Is try
ing to rat a place. Lancaster and Cass
counties, should they vote as a unit can
control the convention and name the dele
grates. ' It is considered doubtful, howover.
that Laaoastsr and Cass will make a com
bination unless Some of the other counties
tart some thing- distasteful to Cass county.
Congressman Pollard may come to the con
vention, but Chairman Teegarden said ha
hardly expected that he would be a')le to
Cot away from Washington
Melkel of Rsaitaatlag Elector.
A first district politician who Is her to
attend tb congressional convention to
morrow said In his opinion the manner of
ejecting presidential electors under the
primary law la not generally understood.
It ha been understood, he said, that the
eight electors, to which Nebraska is en-
ntlod, are nominated at large by each of
j tb political parties. Paragraph S of sec-
Uon S of the primary law says specifically
' that onlr two electors are chosen at turn
and that each of the congressional districts
must nominate one. The paragraph is as
follows:
At the tvptember primary In IP", and
every four years thereafter, there shall be
nominated by each poll Ural party one can
didate for presidential elector in each of
th onturmsslonal districts within the state,
and two candidate for presidential electors
at large. Candidates for presidential
electors shall file nomination pipers as
required of candidates for nomination for
state offices.
This politician said It should be urged on
the various district conventions to recom
mend to the voters a. candidal for elect-ir.
This would ensile the district to select
a strong mar. capable of getting tb party
vote, while If left to the primary the mul
tiplicity of candidate might result In bad
elections, owing to the activity "of rival
political part lea Should tho various con
ventions make recommendations it would
not prevent others from filing and sub
mitting their name aa candidates for pres
idential electors, but the recommendation
of a candidate St '.is thought, would be
eqalvolent almost t a selection.

SEVERE ECZEMA
the claims rerertly held np tempormrfty
by the state auditor, has risle Its report
and Included therein their reconmendatlons
trr the future business methods to be
e,"r''d by the resents In the conduct of
the unim-jlty. Tlie committee wss com
fS"l of r.'gents Cotipland, Anderson and
Abbott snd their recommendations will
revolutionise the system hi-rtnfore em
ployed In the financial affairs of the Insti
tution. The claims which were Investigated
wire the fallowing: "The famous Laun
dry bill; the bill for wire and electric
motors and expense accounts of two pro
fessors who went to Colorado to discover a
location for the study of forestry." The
committee found the claims proper, as has
already be-n published. The commltte
made the following recommendations for
the future conduct of the business of the
Institution:
It Is to be expected that the growth of
the university, entailing an Increasing vol
ume of business, must be met by constant
improvement in business methods, better
service, greater publicity of university
transactions, so aa to safeguard the great
Interests Involved. Acting upon this pro
gressive policy, we find that the Board
of Ilerents last year created the office of
purchasing agent snd helaed It about with
strtet rties for the express purpose of
systematlslng the business of the uni
versity ami of effecting the sxestest poss
hle economy. These new methods should
be perfected and other changes made as
th requirements demand.
We find the general methods as to ac
counting and auditing are the very best,
and at any time the exact conditions of
the different funds can be asrertnined.
To supplement the methods that have
heretofore prevailed, we recommend that
this board adopt the policy of requiring the
purchasing agent of the university In the
purchase of all supplies which are not of
an emers-ency character, after he has ob
tained bids or prices for the same, he
shall submit them to either the finance,
property or Industrial committees for their
arprovul, before making the purchase or
entering Into a contract for the purchase
of such mippllew. Further, that all vouch
ers for such bills shsll be approved also
h" the committee authorizing the pur
chase or contract.
All vourhrrs for small Items bought bv
J!? purchasing acent should be marked
'HmersT-ncy" or current expenses on the
voucher to be approved by the chancellor
or head of th department requisitioning
the supplies.
We briieve that It should be the policy
of the board and its employes to so con
duct ttwlr business as to court puMtc con
fidence, which Is so essential t othe best
success of the university, and we feo the
great responsibility for the most careful
and economic expenditure of funds placed
at the disposal of this hoard for the main
tenance and extension of university work.

City, and from present prospects the con
test will be one cf the closest and most
hotly contested In the history of the town.
The matter Is settled here by popular vote,
as the city operates under the provisions
of the initiative and referendum law. The
town Is at present without saloons, but a
petition has been circulated asking that
the question be submitted at the annual
election in April, and as the petition has
more than tho required number of legal
signers the proposition will go on the bal
lot. An Anti-Saloon leaffue has been or
ganised with a big membership and Its
workers are already busy, although the
election is still a month distant. A con
siderable sum of money has been raised
by the league to prosecute the fight against
saloons, and ths adherents of license are
equally active and determined.

Into th farthermost comer, took the paper
out of his pocket and In a very subdued

Copies of th map will be furnished to
the city office and th fire hall. The
water hydrant will all be located and
th complete sewer system in Ink will be
delineated. The work has required nearly
two years' time of th mechanical, drafts
man, working at odd times. The greatest
valua will be to th engineering depart
ment, for the work 1 so accurate that a
scale taken from the map will be as good
as a survey of the ground in most cases.
It will be especially valuable In locating
new hydrants, sewer and sidewalks.
