ELECTION OF SENATORS.
The telegraph Thursday brought to
every city and town of Nebraska the
welcome news to republicans that an
election of senators had taken place, the
choice being of Gov. Dietrich of Hast
ings, and J. H. Millard of Omaha. Thus
was illustrated the general principle
that when the full time had come, per
sonal ambitions of candidates were laid
aside and two men named who will
doubtless give good satisfaction to the
people of the state at the nation's cap
itol. The Crounse boom in the caucus, at
one time, says the Lincoln Journal,
promised to place him in one of the sen
atorial seats, but Rosewater and one or
two other candidates would not assist
Amidst the booming of cannon and
the crush of a great crowd the nominees
were elected in the joint convention, the
republican members voting solidly for
the caucus nominees.
The selections advance Lieutenant
Governor Ezra P. Savage to be governor,
and Senator C. F. Steele, president pro
tem of the senate, to the office of lieu
tenant governor.
Joseph H. Millard was born in Canada
in 1836. Since 1856 he has been a resi
dent of Omaha, having been in the
banking business most of the time. He
served one term as mayor of Omaha,
and was for six years one of the govern
ment directors of the Union Pacific
railroad.
Mr. Dietrich's biography was so much
in evidence last fall that it is familiar to
Jodrnatj readers.
Naturally, the great body of republi
cans in the state are rejoicing that two
members of the party have been selected.
Edward Rosewater, the editor of the
Omaha Bee, and, incidentally, one of the
late aspirants for a senatorship, in his
speech after the election, frankly con
fessed : "I realize that I am perhaps not
a proper person to be a candidate -for
this high office because I am unfortu
nately engaged in a business in which I
frequently have to tread on too many
corns, but I feel grateful that I am not
a statesman out of a job. I will continue
at the old stand, battling for the best
interests of the republican party and will
be heard from again fighting with the
pen for republican principles. I thank
all those who have so generously accord
ed me their support in this long-drawn
but now happily-ended contest." The
Jodrnai. admires his pluck, his compre
hension of the situation, and his indom
itable will and industry, but these latter
will now be of vital use to him, because
his functions as editor of one of the
many great newspapers of the country
give to him daily a larger audience and
one more attentive than the few score of
listeners in the United States senate
chamber.
Two thousand prominent Chinese res
idents of Pekin have sent a petition to
the military authorities asking the Amer
icans to retain administration of that
section of the Tartar city which has been
under American supervision. The peti
tioners protested against turning over to
the Germans that part of Pekin in which
they are particularly interested, and de
clared that under the American occupa
tion order had been preserved and the
Chinese had been treated with justice
and fairness. Chicago Inter Ocean.
"The Indian Territory, Its Status,
Development, and Future," is the subject
of an instructive article in the April
Review of Reviews, contributed by Col.
Richard J. Hinton. The work of the
Dawes Commission, for the allotment of
lands to the Indians in severalty, is fully
described, and the results analyzed and
tabulated. Colonel Hinton has made an
exhaustive inquiry into the resources
actual and potential of the several
tribes and "nations."
Frank McCleart,wLo had been help
ing to dig a well in South Omaha, seized
with a sudden faintness, fell down into
the well twenty-four feet, and on some
cross-braces, which kept him from drop
ping the full fifty feet depth of the well.
A man was let down from the top, who
fixed a loop over his shoulders and both
were drawn to the surface. His right
shoulder was dislocated and three ribs
broken, but it is believed his condition
is not serious.
Monday, Governor Dietrich appointed
Colonel William Hayward of Nebraska
City to succeed J. N. Kilian as adjutant
general of the Nebraska National guard.
He is the youngest son of the late Sena
tor Hayward. Besides his military
record as captain, major and colonel, he
is a gaadnate of the law department of
the University of Nebraska.
DOES HE MEAN 3IORAN?
A pop who was here on the make
By methods essentially lake
Was held up to the jeers
Of the prophets ana seers.
And he very soon saw his mistake.

He declared the assaults
Of Jim A were false

(Special Correspondence.)
Lincoln, April 1, 1901.
The sensational fight has ended in
such a manner that it nuts an end to
the war between the factions in the re
publican party, which is a most happy
outcome. The long and determined
fight has demonstrated one thing that
the people of the state will not tamely
submit to having an objectionable can
didacy rammed down their throats.
It is to the glory of the state that a
dozen members held out to the last,
that they were supported by popular
sentiment, and that victory finally
crowned their efforts.
Following are some of the more inter
esting bills passed by the legislature:
& F. 133. To provide for the ap
pointment of nine supreme court com
missioners at $2,500 per year, and nine
pasturage for
to be the best
ammj
XXXSSOCSOOQQQCX
stenographers at $1,000.
8. F. 115. Requiring peddlers to pay
a license of $25 to $100 per yaar.
H. R. 133. For the protection of
game, and to provide for the appoint
ment of a game and fish commission.
An entirely new game law.
H. & 20. Creating a library commis
sion and establishing traveling libraries.
S. F. 72. Amending the law so as to
permit the admission of Spanish war
soldiers in soldiers homes.
8. F. 61. To prevent the spread of
contagious diseases among domestic an
imals, and providing for a state veteri
narian. S. F. 40. Repealing the state barber
board.
S. F. 32. Providing a penalty for the
crime of kidnapping.
H. R 46. Providing that all execu
tions shall take place at the penitentiary,
and making the warden public execu
tioner. S. F. 116. To prevent the spread of
contagious diseases by authorizing
county boards to enforce quarantine
regulations.
H. R. 56. Provides for the payment of
road tax in cash in counties under town
ship organization.
H. R 230. Extending to one year the
time within which cases on error may be
taken to the supreme court.
H. R 189. Makes knowledge of his
tory requisite for third grade certificates,
and inserts a knowledge of elements of
agriculture after 1903 among branches
required for certificates.
a F. 256. Providing that contracts
with teachers must be signed by two
members of the board not related to the
teacher.
It is reported that Dietrich will not
resign from the governorship until fall,
because he desires to carry out some
plans already mapped out in state affairs.
When he presents his certificate of elec
tion to the next congress his term and
salary will date back to the day of his
election as senator. Millard's term and
pay will date back to the 4th of March.

C. B. Lee, a former well known resi
dent of this place, son-in-law of C. R
Clarke, and at present living in Oakland,
California, was badly injured February
26 last. He was in a lumber yard with
a dray wagon, and in some manner had
his head crushed between heavy timbers.
He was alive at last accounts, but his
condition was considered to be very
serious. Silver Creek Times.
Every once in a while The Journal
receives a visit fiom its old-time friend
Frank Simms, and nearly every time,
there will be pleasing reminiscences to
relate and to hear, while the types go
clicking into the sticks. It is wonderful
how the scenes of other years come up
to view when Frank was among the faith
ful helpers at Turner & Hnlst's lumber
yard across the way from the pioneer
JocRNAfc of the early TO's, and took a
lively interest in the welfare of the
village.
Leopold Jaeggi, who is secretary and
treasurer of the Mutual Aid Society of
the General Lutheran Synod of Ne
braska, has been for some time at work
planning record books for the associa
tion, and as printed and bound they
make a very complete set Everything
in the way of the money transactions,
whether in particular or in general, can
be ascertained at a glance, by reference
to the proper book. The complete set
certainly show the comprehensive inge
nuity of their author.
"Half the world never knows how
the other half lives," is tru3 in more
senses than one. There are some few,
instance, that rise at five in the morning
and go about their work. These are
scarce a small percentage of the body
of mankind. There are quite a number
who stir about at six, so as to get break
fast and be at their regular daily task by
seven; then, there are the school chil
dren, who think they do exceeding well
if they rouse themselves in a hurry, eat
and dress in like manner, and hurry to
school by nine o'clock.
John Wagner, well known to many
older readers of The Journal, died at
his home in Creston, March 20, about
10:30 p. ul, aged G9 years, 2 months and
5 days, having been born in Germany,
January 15, 1832. He came to America
when 22 years old, locating in Wiscon
sin, where he married Miss Mary Wools
tenholma In 1881 they came to Platte
county. He leaves wife, daughter and
six sons. Funeral services were held in
the Methodist church Creston, Rev. R
N. Throckmorton, preaching the sermon.
Comrades of the G. A. R conducted the
burial services, so we learn from the
Creston Statesman.
Hon. James E. North, referring to
the statement of E. E. Blackman in The
Conservative of a recent date, says that
the ruins of Indian lodges near Fullerton
in Nebraska are the hut visible remnants
of a village which was there in 1832 and
occupied by the Pawnees down into the
forties, while Mr. Allis was government
interpreter for that tribe. During the
same occupancy L. W. Platte and wife
were government teachers to the Paw
nees at that village. Mrs. Platte is still
living. Her residence is at Oberlin,
Ohio. The editor of The Conservative
was personally well acquainted with all
the persons named by Mr. North and is
now in direct correspondence with a son
of Interpreter Allis who resides on a
farm near Council Bluffs, Iowa. It k
hoped that valuable manuscript and
data relating to the Pawnees may soon
be made available to the readers of this
1
journal The Conservative.
Last Wednesday evening at the
North Nebraska High School oratorical
contest at Norfolk, John Neumarker of
this city won the first prise, a gold
medal, in 'the dramatic class. There
were seven in the class. The Columbus
people present were duly jubilant over
the performance, and one lady spectator
was overheard to remark that she "didn't
think Columbus ought to have, been
given the prize, because that fellow acted
just exactly as though he had the deli
rium tremens." The judges probably
thought so, too. Anyway, John holds
his honors with a level head, and this is
all the more pleasing to his friends.
The Madison Chronicle gives a num
ber of interesting particulars from Oliie
Trine who lives in the Klondike on a
claim some little distance from Dawson
City. His log cabin is chinked with
moss, and is banked to the eaves with
snow, makes a very comfortable abode.
It is so warm that a ventilator has to be
kept open nearly all the time, but if a
change of about one hundred and forty
degrees in the temperature is desired it
is only necessary to btep to the door.
Shafts have been sunk over a hundred

The April number of Table Talk has
much in it that relates to Easter and its
customs. Its illustrated dishes are
timely, tempting and practical, with full
instructions about their preparation.
Table Talk is the exponent of good. liv
ing and it is a valuable assistant to the
housewife in that it helps her to solve
the perplexing problems of housekeeping.
Its House-keepers' Inquiry Department
is always filled with recipes and informa
tion asked for by its readers. "The
Much Misunderstood Biscnit of the
South," is a valuable contribution by
Leonora Beck Ellis, an able southern
writer. It will interest housekeepers of
the north and south. "Concerning the
Delicatessen," "A Little Chapter on
Mushrooms," and "For the Gardens" are
but brief mention of the several practical
articles in this number. Our readers
can obtain a recent number free, or the
