The insistence , he said , seemed - ed to become more persistent with his expressions of disinclination and before leaving Nebraska he stated that he would make no further' opposition , but would remain passive.

As the time approaches when the new district irrigation law becomes effective - fective by the organization of districts and the voting on this proposition a number of questions of general interest - est to people contemplating such action - tion arc being submitted to the state officers One of these is in relation to who are eligible voters One such inquirer - quirer wants to know if one living on a homestead which he has filed uponbut on which lie has not made final proof , is a voter. The language of the act itself on the subject of the eligibility of voters says : 'No person shall be entitled - titled to vote at any election held under - der the provisions of this act unless he shall be a qualified elector- and the owner of real estate in such district. " There seems to have been the question tion raised of whether the land can be taxed before the government has parted - ed with the title and the tax levied = de a lien on the land , I f the hgider l of iius hind of an hii npleted right of a ownership cannot be held fqx hip part of the expenses the fat'ifl owners who have deeds to their lands say it would be an injustice to others to let them participate in the voting and govern. ment of the district Three Irrigation Decisions. Lincoln dispatch : The State board of Irrigation filed three opinions today. It found in favor of Andrew Carson , who appealed as contestant against the McCoolt Irrigating and Water company of Red Willow county. The latter company , comprising a large number of people , intervened in the case before - fore the board and claimed under riparian commonlawprocedure , butthe board decided against it , and dismissed the intervention as immaterial to the case. The claim of R P. James of Chase county was dismissed. Tie had sought to make appropriation of water from Frenchman river for mill purposes - poses , but the board found his application - tion deficient in detail. The claim of the Republican River Irrigation company - pany as against J. 'R. Phelan , E. F. Highland , A. P. Benne and It. Williams was also dismissed on the ground that the contestant had not complied with the law of 1589. This was a case from Dundy county and involved rights to water from the Republican river. How to Get Sugar Factories. As the beet-raising and sugar-making has proven a success throughout the state of Nebraska , writes a correspondent - ent to the State Journal , and most ' everybody seems to feel that a lasting success will be made of it , especially since that new process came in by which they claim the cost of making u sugar is greatly reduced , and if the plan is carried out to build factories in different parts of the state , allow mete to propose a plan by which all those arc made safe who might interest themselves in this industry , and this is as follows : Suppose it takes $25,000 to I erect such a factory as they say , it will cover the cost ready to make sugar. Now then , if it take that amount , or whatever it may take , let twenty- five men each investing $1,000 , or i whatever sum it may take , so that no Luau shall have a greater share than the other , which will bring everystoek- t older on an even footing with the other , and no one has more power than the other , car in other words , freeze the j smaller stockholders out , which is generally - erally the case where one or more have the controlling power. It will also be seen by this that in this way , such establishments - t tablishments can be run and ought to b e run independently from any monopoly - ely or trust As there is no danger of over-stocking the market with this product - duct , any man who has any money to ; pare is willing to invest in a safe busi- ness running under such management t where everyone is equal with the other. would like to have some opinion on a : his subject from others Nebraska Men Pleased. Washington dispatch : The Nebraska men feel very well satisfied with the : ill in relation to suits to vacate patents - ents upon public lands as it passed the s house today.

AN OLU LACY FINDS THE i. ' . e .OURCE OF V1TALlTY. I A Reporter's Interesting Intorvrnw With ' a Lady of Seventy-tWO YCarer ' I 'Who Tells a Marvelous Story. I from the union Port Jervis , N : f But a short time ago , In a distant part of the country , we heard of n cure by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink l Pills , which seemed almost inarvelouv , ; and more recently another substantial { ' . i evidence of their value reached our , - ears. Being of an inquiring turn of jttst how a i { ! mind , and tvlshln to know t much there was In the story , a repor ter t I was sent to interview the person paid to be thus benefited. If the narrattVC it had reached our cars was true , ; it was only simple justice to I't it be I known-If it proved untrue , it : would be l well to know it. ' r t The nerson alluded to above as having been thus greatly- benefited by the use c ' - of Pink Pills is Mrs. Jane } Iotalen , of 1Iainesvllle , N. J. , a pleasant hamlet in - Sussex County , about fifteen miles from ) j ( t had no (11111- this ofllce. The reporter d softy in finding Dirs. Hotalen. after a F few preliminary remarks in explatuttoo : ! e i of the call , she was asked if she had 1 any objection to giving Us the details of the cage atnd } tow she catn : to tr , this now famous retiredY. - I "Not at all. said she. "If my exile- , rience can be of any good to others , I am sure they are welcome to it-it can ! do me no harm. " 1 "When were you taken sick anti what. . I was the nature of the malady ? " was , asked. , "lt ryas about two years ago. The trouble was rheumatc ( in character- sciatica , they called it-and it was very . n ainful Indeed. The difficultY began in nmy hip and extended the whole length of the lhnb , crippling me completely. , d ; I suffered IntenselY from ft , and tte or- Binary treatment gave me not the slightest alleviation. I was under treatment - - ment about a month as stated , but grew- , worse instead of better , and was fast becoming - coming discouraged. " "what brought Pink Pills to your notice ? " "My son called my attention to an t article in a paper , in which It was stated F that a Dir. Struble , of Branchville , a village in this county , had been greatly . benefited by their use , and suggested that it would be a good plan to tr } ' ' them. But I was skeptleal 1P regard to their value-in fact , I had ao fop = fdence in their eilcacy , and rather laughed at the suggestion. But the trouble increased and I was badly crip- pled. A few days later my sun way r about to visit a neighboring tovn and suggested again that it might be rveli rte r to try this much-talked-of remety , and 1. I then consented. He bought m ' a box of them , and 1 began taking them at ' once. At the end of a week i noted a marked Improvement , and by the tiiue I had taken the first bas I was able to walk without a cane. I continued their . 1 use , taking several boxes , and am. as you see , in a very comfortable state of health : ' r "Have you had any return of tla. tr nble ? " " ( , : of as yet , thought at my time of , ! life , seventy-two , it would not be star- prising if 1 should havt . If it sung. s I should at once begin the use of the pills. I suppose I inherit a tendency to troubles of this kind-my moth"r r11"d from them. "Did you ever note any-111 cffe : ts from t I' the use of Pink Pills ? " I / "None whatever. They never dls- t turbed my stomach in any way ur caused me any annoyance.
