LEGISLATIVE NOTES.
The new committee on apportion
ment in the senate reported to the
general file with the recommendation
that it be passed, senate file 235, by
Snator Steele, providing for the di
vision of Nebraska into fifteen Judi
cial districts. The bill bears but lit
tle resemblance to the one originally
introduced by Senator Steele, it being
made up of bills introduced by both
Senators Steele and Olesou. The bill
makes Douglas county a omplete dis
trict and provides it with six judges.
With tlie adjournment of the legis
lature almost in sight the senate has
recently resolved itself into a hard
working body and is disposing of the
largh amount of work staring it in the
face in an unusually rapid manner.
An indication that the end of the pres
ent session is nearing is the action
take by the senate iu naming a com
mittee on final adjournment to confer
with a similar committee named by
the house.
The osteopaths of Nebraska hav«
renewed their efforts in behalf of the
passage of the hill prepared by them
early in the session, but which was
temporarily laid aside. The bill is on
the general file. The Christian Science
hill may also come up in the near fu
ture.
Governor Dietrich has lieeti appealed
to to send a special message to the
legislature asking them to pass an act
to enable the Otoe county commission
ers to refund the Missouri Pacific
bonds, which were voted some twelve
years ago by Nebraska City precinct
to induce that road to build its main
line through that city, and which the
supreme court of this state declared
illegal, but the United States supreme
coflrt declared legal, and now have to
be paid.
The senate, by the divisive vote of
17 to 13, indefinitely jsistponed the
hill appropriating $100,000 for two new
normal schools, one to be located in
the Fifth congressional district anl
one in the Sixth.

five years in the Sioux Falls peniten
tiary by Judge .'lunger for wrecking

officers. In compliance with the re
quest of their attorneys, the judge
suspended sentence for ten days to al

mers and that, in doing so he us.d th-1
assets and collateral in making ills
payments and that they knew this.

were discounted and rediscounted with
other banks for the purpose of taking
up personal obligations.

took charge of the affairs of the bank
he found a shortage of between $80,
000 and $40,000 and liabilities of $110.
