Xm Etr Session Called. rul Thayer issued Ihe following call for a special session of the legislature: Section s. Article Y, constitution of Ne braska, read: "Tile governor may on ex iraordinaiy occasions convene the legisla ture by proclamation setting forth the por pone for whten convened, and the legislature anal enter upon no buaine- except for which they mere called together." Whereas, Matters of vitil Interest to the peoole of the slate greatly agitating the public mind constitute, in the Judgment of the eiwuUve, an extraordtnay occasion which JustiOV the assembling of the legis lature, therefore, I, John M. Thuyer, governor of Nebraska, by vlrtne of the authority in me vested by provision of the constitution, do hereby is sue this, my proclamation, requiring the members of the houses of the twenty n rst Joint assembly of Nebraska to convene In their respective halls in the cap'tol building on Tbursdry, June 5, 10, ut 10 o'clock a. m., for the purpose of considering and taking action upon the following named subjects, and tbese only; 1. For the purpose of enacting a law es tablishing maximum railway freight rates, and to repeal that section of the statute creating a state board of transportation. i. For the purpose of considering and amending our election laws by the adoption of what is known as the Australian ballot system. S. To consider and give expression in favor of an increase in the volume of cur rency and of the free coinage of silver. So other subjects will be proposed for the consideration of the legislature at this spe cial sessloa. John M. Thiteb. By the governor: BrsjAMis R. Cowdisjt, Secretary of State. Senator Manderson has been on the sick list for some days, suffering from a wound he received in the army. It is estimated that the special session of the legislature called to convene on next Thursday will cost the state about 50,000. Some good should result from the expenditure of that sum. A postal clerk by the name of Saml. Posner on tl Long Pine and Whitewood run was caught by an agent of the spec ial mail service in the act of opening a letter. It is not very safe business to monkey with the United States mail. In toe selection of world's fair com missioners at large , Hobt W. Furnas, of Nebraska, was named as alternate to Richard C. Kerins, of Missouri. The Nebraska delegation do not feel at all pleased, for they claim, and justly too, that Got. Furnas was entitled to better treatment ia the matter than be re eeived. :' The call for a special session of the legislature is calling out a diversity of opinions, the majority appear to be lieve that the step was uncalled for. tile result of the gathering will be watched with interest The governor has issued a supplementary proclama tion providing for the passage of an ap propriation bill to defray the expenses of the session. The proclamation of Gov. Thayer call ing a special session makes the election of Hon. A. Bartow as senator, and Bon. O. W. Simonson, as representative, for the northwest districts something more than empty honors.' These gentlemen will have an opportunity to show what kind of legislative material they are composed of, and we venture the predic tion that they will make a record of Which their constituents need not be ashamed. The Cbadron bottling works are re ported aa doing a large business in the line of original packages, the goods prob ably going across the state line into ; South Lakota. The original package '- matter bid fair to be settled in the near future by national legislation, aa it ap plies to oiemargarine as well as whiskey aad the great dairy interests are making a strong and united effort to protect their interests which are seriously af fected by the recent decision of the su- court. Tne law should be so I that when a town, county or refuses to grant a license the na- tioaal internal revenue department refuse to issue government , aad the federal authorities as sist in enforcing the combined local and fsdere lava. - Under the present system It la very much like a father forbidding a ' child to do a certain thing and the moth ' mt gring faejcea perform the forbidden ' at if a oaa do so without the father's txewWba.

Km. drutstt at (pmtk of the The fusion-ring-organ does not appear to take kindly to the position taken by THE Joi'HSal on the matter of candidates for congress. Tliat orjran takes special pains not to mention Judjre Kinkaid in congressional matters and also makes some remarks about the editor of this paper which are too ridiculous to be re peated. The Herald is displeased be cause any one should dare aspire to de feat Mr. Dorsey. The fact that Mr. Dor sey appointed the senior member of the H-nild firm to the post office at Harris n under the circumstances which existed at tliat time, certainly would demand thiit tliat paper should iiph-'M tlie pat rename dispenser of the big third. Tlie member of the Hra'd firm was probaf ly appointed as postmaster to reward him for withdrawing from the. race for coun ty attorney in 1SS in favor of a demo crat, and to show his appreciation of the patent vote of Running Water precinct in the fall of 18S3. the record of which shows that in that election W. 1L West over, the democratic nominee for the legislature, receiving CO votes, while L. W. Gilchrist, the republican candidate, received oDe vote, and at tlie same election tliat same precinct frave E. I). Satterlee. the democratic candidate for county attorney in whose favor the Her-aM-torsey postmaster withdrew- re coived CI votes while his opponent did not receive one. Tliat precinct, al though a number of new voters liave been added to its population, only 17 votes were cast at the election of 18S9. Then tlie unparallelled feat of fusing tlie existing republican and democratic com mittees in the fall of 13X9, and the call ing of a convention which produced a ticket on which a majority of the candi dates were democrats, and the selection of a central committee, partly composed of democrats, of which the junior mem ber of tlie Berald firm was made chair man, and the statement of the Herald Dorsey -fusion post master before the ex ecutive committee of the fitate centra committee that E. D. Satterlee was a re publican must certainly put the Jhrald-Corsey-fusion postmaster and the junior member of the Hra!d firm in a position to greatly help the chairman of the house committee on banking and curren cy in nis enorts to be returned lor a fourth term. The recent appointment of census enumerators would indicate that the congressman from the third dis trict does not possess the ability to up hold such a gang and they will find that the people of Sioux county know of the fact that Judge Kinkaid is in the field even if the Herald does not mention it, and that the people of the twelfth judi cial district will stand by him, and the sooner the gang and its organ takes a turn hie to themselves and read the hand' writing on the wall, the better it will be for them. In another column appears a procla mation issued by Gov. Thayer, calling the legislature to convene at the capital on June 5th, in special session. The matters to be considered is a maximum freight rate and the repeal of the statute creating a state board of transportation, tlie adoption of the Australian ballot system and to give expression in favor of an increase in the volume of the cur rency and of the free coinage of silver. It is only in extraordinary cases that a special session of the legislature is called. The adoption of the Australian ballot system is certainly to be desired, and do member of the legislature who has a desire for the purity of the ballot will oppose the passage of such a law. The consideration and favorable express ion for an increase in the volume of cur rency and the free coinage of silver will meet with the hearty approval of all, and especially of the settlers in the western part of the state. The fixing of a maximum freight rate is a question of vast importance to the people of the state and deserves the careful considera tion of the legislators. The repeal of the law creating a state board of transporta tion is all right, provided the proper steps follow. We believe the best way would be to pass a joint resolution submitting to the people an amendment to the constitution providing for the election of a state railroad commission directly by the people. The present law, putting the duties of a board of tran portation upon the officers of the state is not at all satisfactory. A man may be eminently fitted to fill any of the state offices, and still be objectionable for a railroad commissioner. The mat ters for which the session is called are certainly of grave import and should re ceive the most careful and earnest ef forts of the members of the legislature. la almost every neighborhood through out the west there are some one or more persons whose lives have been saved by Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and diar rhoea Remedy, or who have been cured at tihroou; diarrhoea by it.

For coilnty exhibits the management have placed fl.000 divided into seven prize ram-ing from $50 to 2-50. That is a very liberal offer. Now is the time for Sioux County to get a hustle on its- self and prepare to enter the race. Noth ing .ess than the highest prize will be good enot'gh for this county and there is no reason in the world why Sioux coun ty sliould not have it if the people will set themselves about preparing for it in earnest. No organizations in the United States liave multiplied more rapidly in the past ten years tkin tlie sick benefit, funeral aid, death benefit and other kindred so cieties. As they are generally confined to th .se who are in the humbler walks of life, tlie good they have done is incal culable, carrying substantial aid to thou sands of stricken families and inspiring those who are fortunate enough in being members with a courage which might not exist in their hearts without them The members of these organizations will 1 glad to learn that Hon. RoWt P. Porter, superintendent of tlie eleventh census, will endeavor to secure tlie sta tistics of the noble work these associa tions are doing, and it is safe to say that no other branch of the census will be more interesting. The business of gath ering the data lias been pla.ed in charge of (Thus. A. Jeuney, special agent of the insurance division, 59 William street, Jew Y'irk city, and all associations throughout the United States, whether incorporated or private, should assist by sending to him the address of their prin cipal officers. Bucket-shop speculation is rapidly dying out. It is stated that ten of the largest of these institutions have si pended within the last six weeks and mucn larger number or smaller ones liave closed their doors. To this extent the wisdom of the action of the Chicago board of trade in refusing to furnish quo tations to the bucket-shops is vindicated and if the result, as claimed, has been a much larger volume of trading on tlie regular exchange and a substantial ad vance in the prices of farm products, then the course of the board has been an inestimable benefit. It is quite proba ble, however, that prices would have improved with the bucket-shops inactive operation, notw ithstanding the generally bearish influences attributed to them Other well-known causes have contri buted to that "esult. S'UI it is alto gether well that the bucket-shops are going out of existence. They could not possibly serve any good purpose in the interest ol trade, and tney fostered a gambling disposition most demoralizing in its effect both upon individuals and upon the trade of the country. But speculation will not end with the de struction of the bucket-shops, and it is a question whether it will be much less dangerous. If congress responds to the demand of the farmers the millionaire gamblers of the exchanges will be de prived of the privilege they now enjoy of bulling and bearing the market pro ducts at will. Omaha Bee. The conference of republicans which was held at Lincoln on the 25th Inst, called by Messrs, Keckley, Kettleton and others was not as largely attended as was expected. Oniy seventy-live identified themselves with the move ment They passed some resolutions on freight rates and proxies which were all right and proper and also recommended tlie adoption of the ' Australian ballot system, which is highly desirable. A resolution was also passed urging the representatives of Nebraska to oppose the McKinley tariff bill as presented to congress. The most important measure adopted was the selection of a commit tee of five from each congressional dis trict to urge the holding of the republi can state nominating convention not later than July 10th, and empowering said committee, in case the republican central committee failed to do so, to call a state convention. Granting that those making such request did it in good faith, it certainly does not look as if they considered the matter in all ite bearings. The date suggested occurrs at a time when the farmers are very busy and if the promoters of this movement desire tlwt the farmers take an active part in political work this fall Uiey should, at least, have taken into consid eration that the farmers cannot be in duced to let their grain go to waste in the held while tbey are attending cau cuses and conventions. Then again the calling of a convention at so early a date makes it out of the question for any man who is not rich to aspire to a state office. A soon as nominations are nude the people all over the state ex pect the nominees to make an active canvass all ver the stale and to con duct a campaign for four months would make the saury of any state orfioer sink entirely out of sight. It would be far better lor candidates for the various offices be announced before hand and lot the people dir ;ius the merits and demer iu of each before baud and then eoa&i oate the beat of the tot, than to nonu nute the wee and Uwa cbacuas tbwrquaJ iucaUou for the poaitioaa.
