at Xromoiit FREMONT Neb Nov 18 An inter esting question has been raised by a Fremont groceryman in regard to the sale of butterine State Food sloner S C Bassett of Gibbon was in tho city and took the groceryman to task for disposing of that article with out a state license The latter Imme diately produced a Jcderal license and asserted that he was carrying on his business under that in a manner ac cording to law Food Commissioner Bassett told the dealer that ho would have to tako out a license undr the slate laws also or be amenable to the penalties The groceryman said that he would do so providing Armours and Cudahys packing plants a Omaha were also required to obey the law Tho chief difference between the fed eral and state pure food laws is that the former permits the sale of colored butterine when properly labeled -while the latter prohibits it altogether The local dealer denies that he has ever sold butterine instead of butter but de clares his business is entirely open and above board If people call for butter they get it while if they desire the butterine at the cheaper price he sells it to them AS TO NATIONAL LEGISLATION Measures that Senator Dietrich of Ne braska

colored and ornamental and a fa vorite in all sections To make it the national emblem will be a fitting trib ute to tho martyred piesident William McKinley whose favorite flower it was The senator

government lands and applying the proceeds to the construction of irrigation reservoirs OMAHA f EDERALBUiLDING Permision Asked to Proceed With Ita Construction OMAHA Neb Nov 18 Superin tendent of

of the permanent educational fiinds of the state has caused the State Board of Educational Lands and Funds to consider raising tho usual premium rate which has been paid by Treasurer Stuefer State warrants which draw interest at the rato of 5 per cent are being bought for the permanent fund at a premium of one half of 1 per cent and the premium usually paid for county bonds is of a size that will leave the state a rev enue of at least 3 per cent These rates are governed largely by competi tion There are innumerable bidders for both state warrants and county bonds and oftentimes the state loses a big bunch of securities through the higher bidding of outside persons Former Treasurer Meserve frequently paid as high as 1 per cent for state warrants and when the rate of in terest was 5 per cent the premium sometimes was 2 per cent THE LAND LEASING TOUR Everywhere There Is Good Demand nnd the Bidding Spirited LINCOLN Neb Nov 16 Land Commissioner Follmer and Deputy Eaton have returned
