LINCOLN, Neb., April G.—Tile new supreme court commls-ion wil' prob ably be divided inti thtee distinct branches, each to consist of three members. Assignment of cases wil' le made by the court proper, which will remain in full possession of the present supreme couit rooms. The commission will oeu|ly a series of ante-rooms on the second door of th« ipuilding and some of the oral argu ments wil be heard in the senate chamber. It is presumed the three judges will devote their attention al most exclusively to arguments cn mo tions, leaving the preparation of opin ions to he coninu-sioners, subject, of course, to the court's approval. Governor Dietrich was interviewed by several persons intero.-ted in the rppointment of the Nebraska commis sioner to the Pan-American exposi tion. There are already five appli cants for the position and still othei names are frequently mentioned in connection with the appointment. Among them is Representative Hib l.ert, autlior of the Dill creating the office, who has s'rong endorsements end is making a vigorous fight for the plac“. Although the governor has given no intimations, it is under stood that he will sele t some one who has had experience in managing rxhihits, or who lias in same way been connected with an rxp.'si ion. Various ideas for the state's exhibit at tlie exposition have been advanced Some would have the state represent ed by a typical sad house and others believe a small but modern cottage, characteristic of Nebraska’s most up to-date architecture, would make a better showing. Whatever may be tlie nature of the building, one thing i« settled, and that is that no effort will be spared to show to as good ad ■ antage as possible the agricultural and educational resources of the state. The legislature enacted few laws which will in any way affect th • in surance interests of the state. The mo.-t important measure of this class is the act repealing the mutual hog insurance law. The effect of the pass age of this law will be to prevent fu ture organization of thes° companies, all those heretofore existing having failed or gone cut of business. An act to repeal the hail insurance law was introduced, hut because one or two of these companies are still do ing business it was soon defeated. of I.lve Stork.
