(From a Ftaff Correspondent.)
XJNCOL.N, Neb.. Oct. 9.-3peclal.) Ac
cording to a conclusion readied by Chan
cellor Avery of the state university with
regard to the operations of the Eastman
Agricultural school act. It 'will, for the
purpose el" this act, at lrnst, be consid
ered a division of the university.
The reKents' approval of all vouchers
for expenses Incurred by the state board
Is required by the Kastman law. and
nothing can be done toward the fulfill
ment of that act until the board has
consented to the payment of such claims
as come up in connection with the new
Curtis school. Chancellor Avery today
signed the first voucher for the first
money to be spent by the state board
for the new school, a $10 payment on
land bought for the Institution which, is
to be erected at Curtis.
Views of Chancellor.
"It was suggested to me that I could
rot approve the board's expense vouchers
as long as I knew nothing personally of
where the money was used," said Chan
cellor Avery. "That Is frequently , the
case in all of the university departments,
however. There are so many Items pre
sented that it Is impossible to keep track
of them all and there is no other way
than to take the word of the heads of the
departments. I shall do exactly the same
way with the vouchers presented by Land
Commissioner Cowles and the board. The
University regents will, of course, visit
the new school from time to time to see
that the work is going on as It - should.
The school after Its completion is to be
given over to the university as one of Its
adjuncts."
Division of Authority.
The division of authority relative to the
paying out of money by the Board of
"Public Lands and Buildings and subse
quent control of the school by the Board
of Regents of the state unlvorslty was
thought by opponents of the bill and
those who opposed its location at Curtis
to be its weak point, and it was thought
that an attack on this line, would be
made before the first voucher making the
law effective bad beon signed.
The attempt, however, which was made
by several North Flatte men to interest
Holdrege, MoCook, Alma and other disap
pointed towns in fighting the bill, proved
to be unsuccessful, and the matter was
dropped at the Instigation of business men
of towns which had been in the race for
the school.
BURGLAR SALE SUGGESTION
OF STOREKEEPER OF AUBURN
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 9. (Special.)
"People were anxious to buy goods which
the burglar had stolen and which had
been recovered. One woman In parti
cular asked me for the first bracelet
which had been, taken from the robber.
If I had been a Yankee storekeeper I
might have used the burglary as a busi
ness asset and. had a 'robber1 sale simi
lar to 'fire' sales which are widely held.
In this country."
Such was the assertion of James Cur
son an Auburn storekeeper who appeared
before the state board of pardons today
for the purpose of objecting to the parole
of Walter Stratton, the youth who
robbed his store in September, 1910, and
who Is now serving a three years' term
In the penitentiary for the crime.
The hearing was held today before EJ,
G. Maggl and the evidence submitted
thereat will be reviewed by the entire
advisory board of pardons within the
next two weeks.
The history of the crime shows that
young Stratton stole In the neighborhood
of 1700 worth of watch cases, fobs, brace
lets, rings, lockets, gold crosses and
other Jewelry. He tried to make hls-
escape in a car of ' lumber, but was
apprehended before he could get away.
The prisoner gave intoxication as an
excuse for the crime but the evldenoe
tended to show that he was perfectly
sober at the time he was captured, only
av few hours after the deed.

Jim Elliott's Record
in State Campaign
VVES POINT, Neb., Oct. . (Special.)
The attack upon James C. Elliot, repub
lican nominee for congress from the Third
Nebraska district, published In the Sioux
City Tribune and purporting to emanate
from IJncoln, has caused amusement in
both democratic and republican circles
at West Point. The screed Is a labored
attempt to show that the so-called "pro
gressive" element of the republican party
resents Mr. Elliott's nomination, and on
Its face betrays the ear-marks of the
democratic machine, although disguised
in "progressive" clothing,
When the article was shown to Mr.
Elliott he said:
"I assert, most emphatically, that at
no time did I oppose the nomination or
election of Governor Aldrtch. Respecting
my advocacy and support of the direct
primary law I may state that I was In
favor of its enactment as desired by the
people and the same Is true of other
projected reforms, in the advocacy of
which my sole aim was to strengthen
the hands of, the people. The same is
likewise true of my attitude on county
option and I challenge anyone to pro
duce proof to the contrary."
BANKERS MAKE REQUEST FOR
DEDUCTI0NSFR0M LISTS
(From a Staff Corespondent.)
LINCOLN. Oct. 9. (Special Telegram.)
Through M. I. Aitken, a local banker,
the State Board of Assessment has been
asked, on behalf of the State Bankers'
association, to permit the use of blanks
by assessors so that provision for the
additions and deductions from the assess
able property of the banks of the state
may be made.
The request, which was put to the
assessment board late today, was listened
to by Governor AJdrlch, Land Commis
sioner Cowles and Secretary of State
Walt. Pending a full attendance of the
board no action will be taken.
In 1909 the state board used a blank
which permitted banks to add to tholr
assessable property accrued interest on
bills receivable not Included in undivided
profits. Further, the deduction of accrued
and unpaid interest on certificates of
deposit were also provided for, as were
the unearned pro rata portions of dis
counts on notes or bills receivable. This
method of bank property listing resulted
in a decrease of $619,540 actual bank prop
erty value In Douglas county alone.
In 1910 these Items were eliminated from
the blanks, but for some reason were
used in Douglas county, the state board
later requiring the Items to be stricken
out. It was disclosed during the adjust
ment of the bank assessment rolls later
that the county assessor had arbitrarily
allowed a 3 per cent reduction on account
of bad notes held' by Omaha bankers.
This deduction was also refused by the
state board. Subsequent hearings held at
that time were attended by many Omaha
bankers, who contended that they were
unjustly assessed. Their arguments, in
substance, were renewed today by .Mr.
Aitken on behalf of the State Bankers'
association.
