HOW TO SEGUHE HARMONY Senator Hitchcock and Democratic Congressmen of Nebraska Will Get Together for Consul tation. A Nebraska modification of what was once known as the “Iowa pt-er” in the handling of federal patronage matters has been suggested by Sena tor Hitchcock says the Omaha World : Herald. It has been agreed to by those who by virtue of their official positions will naturally have a voice in the handling'of Nebraska's share of the office that wili be at the dis posal of the incoming national admin | istration. These include, beside Sen ator Hitchcock, the three democratic congressmen, Representatives Ma guire. Lobeck and Stephens, Dr. P. L. Hall, the national committeeman, and Chairman W. H. Thompson of the democratic state committee. The es sence of the plan is consultation and agreement with a view to united and ' harmonious action that will result in a fair and equitable distribution of patronage. As originally proposed by Senator 1 Allison, and put into operation by the Iowa republican delegation a good many years ago. the plan worked very j successfully. Senator Hitchcock's mail has been very heavy since election with letters of applicants for federal appoint I meats, and a number of aspirants ; have personally called upon him. For the most part the applicants seek the position of postmaster in the various j towns. In most cases the terms of the present holders do not expire for : a year or more, but the anxious appli cants evidently take the ground that early action is both wise and neces sary. Senator Hitchcock has adopted the plan of merely acknowledging the ap plication with assurance that all i claims will be fairly considered by himself and by others naturally or of ficially entitled to a voice in passing upon applications. To bring about harmonious action he has proposed to the three democratic congressmen, to Dr. P. L. Hall, national committeeman, and to Hon. \V. H. Thompson, chair man of the state committee, a plan of i consultation and cooperation on pat ronage matters, in line with the “Iowa plan.” For the present, applications will be merely received and filed, and de cisions will not be reached until the time conies to fill vacancies. Then the aim will be to unite in making the proper recommendations to the presi dent. Under this plan the three demo cratic congressmen will naturally have the chief voice in settling post office questions, each in his own dis trict, while those in republican dis tricts will be decided on consultation. Requisition Honored. Governor Aldrich has honored a requisition from the governor of Iowa for the return of William C. Gott. alias William C. Gotz, to Council Bluffs, la., on the charge of bigamy. He is alleged to have married Loretta I Danahey at Council Bluffs, la., Sep ! tember 28, when he had a wife living from whom he had not been divorced. Mr. Ferguson's Vote. J. L.

Inspection of Prison Hcrses. Following a sanitary inspection of several penitentiaries and reforma tories of western and coast states, J. E.

Mr. Murray made the trip at his o.vn expense, but was ■•immis j s oned by Governor Aldrich to visit the institutions of the various states | lor the purpose of gaining points on ! sanitation problems. Mr. Murray says ; he found Nebraska far behind many I other states. Trainor Loses Out The supreme court of Nebraska overruled the motion for a rehearing j in the case of Trainor against Hoctor, a suit brought by the former mayor of South Omaha against Thomas Hoctor, the present democratic executive.

" ' ■ The Socialist Vote. Returns from twenty-one counties of the state will have to aggregate more than they ever have before, as far as the socialist vote is concerned, if the total state vote of that party exceeds Its vote of last year. The seventy one counties that have thus far re ported to the secretary of state show that there were 5,679 socialist votes cast this year. Last- year there were 10.003 cast on railway commissioner. Four years ago there were 3,534 votes cast for the socialist candidate for president. The Penitentiary Awaits Him. Sheriff Hyers has returned from ! Seattle, Wash., with Oliver M.

SCOFFERS Often Make the Staunchest Converts. The man who scoffs at an idea or doctrine which he does not fully un derstand has at least the courage to show where be stands. The gospel of Health has many con verts who formerly laughed at the Idea that coffee and tea, for example, ever hurt anyone. 1,'pon looking into the matter seriously, often at the sug gestion of a friend, such persons have found that Postum and a friend's advice have been their salvation. “My sister was employed in an east ern city where she had to do calculat ing,” writes an Okla. girl "She suf fered with headache until she was al most unfitted for duty. “Her landlady persuaded her to quit coffee and use Postum and la a few days she was entirely free from head ache." (Tea is just as injurious as coffee because it contains caffeine, the same drug found in coffee.) “She told her employer about it. and on trying It, he had the same experience. “My father and I have both suffered much from nervous headache since I can remember, but we scoffed at the idea advanced by my sister, that cof fee was the cause of our trouble. “However, we finally quit coffee and began using Postum. Father has had but one headache now in four years, due to a severe cold, and 1 have lost my headaches and sour stomach, which I am now convinced came from coffee. “A cup of good, hot Postum is sat isfying to me when I do not care to eat a meal. Circumstances caused me to locate in a new country and 1 feared I would not be able to get my favorite drink. Postum, but I was relieved to find that a full supply is kept here with a heavy demand for it.” Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.
