enumerators and special agents of the
twelfth census has progressed with
reasonable celerity The law provides
that the four principal reports shall
bo placed in the hands of the public
by July 1 1902 and this requirement
has rendered it absolutely necessary
i to maintain a clerical force adequate
to complete the work within the pre
scribed period The statisticians made
estimates of the time needed to finish
the particular branch assigned to each
of them

MAY TEST LAWS LEGALITY
Right to Sell JJutterlno Questioned 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 Will Push
OMAHA Nov 18 On matters of na
tional legislation Senator Dietrich pro
poses to push a bill making the carna
tion the national flower The carna
tion is a mighty fine flower he said
vari 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 will also lend his aid
to the project of western irrigation un
der the direction of the federal gov
ernment I believe at this session
he said we can make at least a start
along the line of leasing government
lands and applying the proceeds to the
construction of irrigation reservoirs
OMAHA f EDERALBUiLDING

Construction
OMAHA Neb Nov 18 Superin

office and Senator Millard regarding

ployed in straightening up work which

must be done the completion of
which will not interfere with the con
struction of the western corridor upon
any plan which may be adopted

MAY RAISE PREMIUM RATE
Btuto OOlcluls Seek a Method to Invest
More School funds
LINCOLN Neb Nov 13 The
scarcity of securities of the kind avail
able under the law for tho invest
ment 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

where there has been a good demand
and the bidding has gone consider
ably higher than we expected The
farmers in the territory we have vis
ited are well satisfied with the pros
pects and are enlarging their farms
wherever they can find vacant land
conveniently situated The bonuses
offered vary in different sections but
are unusually high considering the lo
cal crop damage of the last summer
