l,nuis Thomas, a Piattsmouth boy
who is a nu mber of Company C, Thir-tv-ninth

this city an intei eating loller. Among

ho will send a Manila paper contain

'"hikes", hat ties and skirmishes which
the Nebraska boys havo pirtieipttcd
in since reac'iing the Philippines.
Following aro a few extracts fiom his
letter:
"Ail the boys from Plaits-mouth are
well excetit Mo-t'ti and Searles. They
are both in the ho-pital Searles suf
fering from sore feet and Mosten is
perhaps ju-t a litt'e homesick. Mc

this lctt'-r there. Ho was in Manila
when I hea d of him last.
"I am gutting along line now, al
though a sho. t time ago I was so sick
as to b unable to talk. We have been
doing considerable "hiking" horo of
late, and hive :ost somewhat in

"Tho Nebraska boys arn't so slow,
after all. Frank l'olk, corporal of
company C, has been promoted to sec
ond lieutenant of the U.S. V.I. I
think ho will get in Company C, for
wo have only one oflieer CaDtain A.
F. W. McManamus. That is a pretty
good jump from corporal to lieutenant,
l'olk is from Lincoln, and is thirty
years of age. He is a good man, and I
was triad to see him get the position
as he could not fctmd much "hiking."
As an otlieer, he can now ride and
watch us travel afoot over the rough
roads.

HAS A DIFFICULT TASK.
Superintendent Lanr Refuse to Be Ousted
From Office.
Governor Poynter has a great deal
of trouble on his hands just now, all
because Dr. Lang, superintendent of
ine home for feeble-minded youtn at
Beatrice, refused to be ousted from of
fice. The : doctor Is determined to
keep the position, and has even gone
so far as to-apply to the ; district court
for a writ of injunction restraining the
rovernor and his new appointee. Dr.
W. H. Dearing, Irom interfering in
any way with him in his exercise of
duties as superintendent of the insti
tution. Speaking of the difficulty the
Lincoln News says:
The strangest part - of tho story ia
that the court granted the injunction,
and kept a deputy sheriff up until 12
o'clock at Beatrice l ist night watching
Infjfrr tr.a -governor
or Dr. Dearing, that he
the writ on them. Hut neither of the
victims of the court's restraing order
appeared. Dr. Dearing was not to be
seen tod iy, although this was the date
set for him to succeed Lang.
Governor Poynter said this morning
that he wasn't certain as to where Dr.
Dearing cou'.d ba fonnd, but that he
wa? of tho opinion that the doctor had
gone lo Towa in response to a message
announcing the serious illness of his
father. He was confident that the
doctor hadn't gone to Beatrice. In
quiries at the insane asylum south of
town proved futile, it being said there
that D". Dearing hadn't been seen
there since last night The attendant
had no idea where he could be found,
although he admitted that a delega
tion started for Beatrice this morning.
He said, however, that he did not
know ns to whether tho doctor was a
member of the delegation.
Gi vornor Poynter p'waks rather
con tern ptously of tho action of tho
court in attempting 1 1 enjoin him
from exercising tho duties of his oflico
as his judgment tells him is correct
and proper.
"I thall pa3 no attention to the in
junction," said Che governor this
morning. Of course, I havo not been
served with notice of its existence, but
if I 6hould-bo I would not heed it. The
judicial and the executive depart
ments of tho state are co-ordinate and
the former has no right, to curtail the
latter in its exercise of proper authori
ty. "I shall install Dr. Dearing despite
what the court says. He has the sher
iff and deputies back of him. I havo
the state militia back of me. Suppose
I should be imprisoned for contempt
of court, what then? Haven't I tho
power to pardon myself?
No one is more surprised than is
Governor Poynter at the belligerent
attitude assumed by the doctor. His
resignation was handed the governor
under date of March 27th. It was
written on a sheet of the governor's
othes paper. It was written before the
eves of Govornor Poynter, on his own
desk by the doctor himself.
It reads.
"F-xocutive Chamber, Lincoln, Neb
Hon. W. A. Poynter, Governor.
"I hereby tender my resignation as
suoerintendent of the Beatrice insti
tuto of the feeble minded vouth of
Nebraska to take effect May 1-5. 1900.
"Lincoln, Neb., March 27, 1900.
"Bex.i. F. Lash, M. D."
This resignation was accepted by
Governor Poynter, and a letter to that
effect was written Dr. Ling, under
date of May 12th. In this connection,
tho governor told the doctor to pre
pare to turn over the institution to his
I successor. Dr. Dearing, May 15.
Governor Poj-nter insists that Dr,
Dearing will be duly installed regard
less of what the district court may do

l ent lr. Lang. 11 the court Insists on

Washington, May 1G. Senator Clark
last night received the following tele
gram: -
"Helena, Mont., May 15. Senator
W. A. Clark, Washington: I have the
honor to inform you that I have this

"A. K. SPItlGGS,

Washington, May 10. The trust
question led to animated discussion in
the house committee on judiciary yes
terday, a constitutional amendment
finally being adopted by a party vote
giving congress power to define, regu
late, control, prohibit or dissolve trusts.
monopolies, or combinations, whether
in the form of a corporation or other
wise. Text of the Iropoed Amendment.
The constitutional amendment as
agreed to and reiorted to the house
proioses the following as article XVI
of the constitution:
"Section 1. All powers conferred by
this article shall exteud to the states,
the territories, the District of Colum
bia, and all territory under the sover
eignty and subject to the jurisdiction
of the United States.
"Section 2. Congress shall have pow
er to donne, regulate, control, prohibit
or dissolve trusts, monopolies, or com
binations, whether existing in the form
of a corporation or otherwise. The sev
eral states may continue to exercise
6ucu power in any manner not in con
flict with the laws of the United
States.
"Section 3. Congress shall have pow
er to enforce the provisions of this ar
ticle by appropriate legislation."
Points from the Majority Report.
The majority report favoring the
constitutional amendment says in part:
In our judgment it is the plain duty
of those intrusted with the law-making
power to propose and submit to the
people of the states such a remedy as
win enable congress to restrain, and
if need be repress absolutely, all illegal
and dangerous combinations which
restrain trade or destroy competition,
or which may unjustly harrass or op
press labor. Labor has its
best friend in aggregated capital, cor
porations and combinations when fair
lv and honestly formed and conducted,
It is not the existence, but the abuse
of corporate powers and combined
capital that merits condemnation and
denunciation and demands a remedy.
Such abuses exist. Hence the neces
sity for the existence of a competent
controlling and restraining power a
power of absolute suppression it may
bo in a given case.

RAILROAD NOTES AND PERSONALS
One of the objects of the present
meeting of the Western Passenger as
sociation in Chicago is to reach an
I agreement, if possible, that will pre
vent the slaughtering of rates for the
I transportation of government troops
returning from the Philippines, says
the Omaha Bee. The old pooling
agreement has gone to pieces, owing
to the refusal of the roida which car
ried the largest proportion of the busi
ness to turn over part of their earn
ings from that source to the other
lines. Most of the roads which car
ried the troops have already settled
with the government on the basis of
party rales, less the land grant. As
matters now 6tand, the government
can get much lower rates than it was
compelled to pay for the transporta
tion of troops during the Cuban war,
and it is to do away with this condi
tion 01 anairs inai ine passenger men
are now discussing tne proposition.

It is thought that the friends of
Henry W. Dewey, who was wanted for J
perjury by the officers, was given a tip I
and made his escape on Monday night
to Percival, la., where he boarded a I
train and made good his "get away."!
His mother left yesterday for her home I
at Piattsmouth. Dewey and his friends
have found out by this time that it is a
dangerous thing to tell anything but
the truth in the district court while I normal ia all parts of the state. Scat
Judge Jessen is on the bench. The of-1 tered showers occurred on the first
fleers have made up their minds to I
bring the young man back and give I
him the full benefit of the law and thus
turn from their erring ways before
they rail Into the clutches of the law.

Corn Planting Nearly all Uon and Much
' Has sprouted
University of Nehr ask a, Lincoln,
May 15. The past week has been
warm, with little rain. The daily
mean temperature has averaged 10 de-
gree above the normal in the eastern
and 11 degree in the western c tuntles.
The rainfall for the week was below
and last days of the week; in a few in-
stances more than h ilf an inch of wa-
nr ril. hut onellv th nmmmt was
less than a quarter of an inch, and al
many stations no rain fell during the
woek.
Ttie past week has been an excel
lent one for the advancement of work
in tho fields. In some places the
ground was rather wet during the first'
day or two, but generally a full week '
has Doen spent in the field. Corn
planting has made rapid progress. In
the southern counties the bulk of the
crop has been planted. Grass, wheat
and oats have grown rapidly, and con
tinue in excellent condition. Fruit is
sotting well, and was little damaged
by the frosts of last week. In a few
places plums and late apples were
damaged slightly.
A Follower of Measles. In many in
stances a persisfy t cough follows an
attack of measles. In speaking of this
Mr. Walter B. Beel, editor of the El
kin (N. C.) Times says: "Three weeks
ngo T had an attack of measles which
left me with a bad cough. I took
lev.'t al doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and the cough has entirely
disappeared. I consider Chamberlain's
medicines the best on the market."
For sale by all druggists.
The ancients believed that rhema-
tism was the work of a demon within
a man. Any one who has had an at
tack of sciatic or inflammatory rheuma
tism will agree that the infliction is
demoniac enouch to warrant the
belief. It has never been claimed that
Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast
out demons, but it will cure rheuma
tism and hundreds bear testimony t
the truth of this statement. One ap
plication relieves the pain, and thi
quick relief which it aff rds is alon
worth many times its cost. For sal
by all druggists.
