IS
SESSION TO- OPEN PROMPTLY AT
- NOON MONDAY.
MESSAGE GOMES AT ONCE
No Well Defined Profram Arranged,
Members Desiring First to
Hear President's News.
Washington. At noon Monday the
first regular session of the Sixty-first
congress will be convened. Vice Pres
ident'' Sherman will preside in the
senate and Sneaker Cannon will wield
the gavel in the house.
The beginning of the session Is re
garded always with interest, but there
have been few sessions In recent years
for which there has been so little plan
ning among the members. Ordinarily
Speaker Cannon and Senator Aldrich
who speaks for the majority of the
-enate. have a program at the be?in
ning of a session, but this year they
have none; or, if they have one, they
are not talking about it They are
waiting upon, the president By com
mon consent, apparently, all are hold
ing back until the president recom
mendations can be received, as they
will be on Tuesday, in his first an
nual message. That his suggestions
will be acted upon is too much to say.
But there Is a disposition to accom
modate him as far as can be done,
and there is a determination to hear
his intimations before entering upon
any effort at legislation along the lines
upon which he has intimated a desire
.to be heard.
Even the "insurgents" generally ex
press a willingness to wait upon the
White House before attempting to for
mulate a plan of action. This is true
both In the senate and the house. They
manifested much interest in the forth
coming message, but that until it is
received they willjbe unable to form
any plans. They"proclaim no fight
against the president, but some at
least of them are avowedly irrecon
cilable in their attitude toward the
speaker and Senator Aldrich, whom
they hold responsible, the one for the
house rules and the other for the tar
iff law. Unquestionably they will be
heard from in some way before the
session grows very old, and it is not
hoped by the friends of the new tar
iff that they will escape criticism.
The principal interest in the outlook
centers in the possibility of railroad
legislation, and all hands are waiting
with keen expectancy to see what
recommendations, if any, Mr. Taft
may make on that subject.
Representative Mann has bills pre
pared on all these points and will pre
sent them as soon as the message Is
received. He is chairman of the com
mittee which will have the measures
in hand and will press them with
vigor.
Much interest is felt in the Nicarag
uan situation, but the general disposi
tion is to permit the executive branch
to deal with it without legislative in
terference at least in the present
stage. Congressmen generally express
no apprehension as to the outcome.
While t.e corporation tax provision
of the tariff bill was under considera
tion during the extra session, Senator
Aldrich expressed the opinion that it
might not be of long life, but he prob
ably will take no steps to abrogate it
until the full effect of the tariff as a
revenue producer can be ascertained.
ATI Land Men Included.
Omaha. There was some doubt as
to whether all the big land men
Richards, Comstock, Jameson, Triplet,
Huntington, Todd and Hoyt were in
cluded, or just Borne of them, in the
decision of the federal circuit court of
appeals affirming the ruling of the
federal district court fining and im
prisoning these men, but there is no
doubt now. They are all included.
Zelaya' Ready to Flee?
New Orleans, La. According to
private reports received here from
Managua President Zelaya has made
all arrangements to leave Nicaragua
on the first steamer sailing from Co
rinto. The report is not confirmed.
Bishop Goodsell Is Dead.
New York. Rev. Dr. Daniel Ayres
Goodsell, resident bishop of the Me
thodist Episcopal church, died Sun
day at his residence in this city. He
had been HI several weeks and death
followed an operation for a carbuncle.
PLEA FOR STATEHOOD.
New Mexico Wants to Come Into the
Union.
Washington. Recalling the fact
that the leading political parties dur
ing their last national conventions
pledged themselves to statehood bills,
George Curry, who recently resigned
the governorship of New Mexico, in
his annual report to Secretary Ballin
ger again urges his aid and influence
toward obtaining statehood for the
territory at the coming session of con
gress. Bishop Stringer is Missing.
Edmonton, Alberta. According to
advices brought down by northern In
dians, Bishop Stringer and his wife,
two sf the best known missionaries of
the north, have perished somewhere
between here and Dawson City, for
which place the couple st-ted over
land last June. Bishop and Mrs. Strin
ger expected to reach Dawson City in
October, 'but nothing has been heard
from them by trappers of voyagers for
the last two months. Bishop Strin
ger and his wife have worked among
the Indians for years.
HONOR OFFERED TO MANY.
President Has Difficulty in' Finding
Man for Place.
Washington The president has
been desirous of finding for the post
at Pekin some man combining both
business and diplomatic qualifications.
The place is regarded as one of the
most important in the entire United
States diplomatic service, and several
prominent citizens have been impor
tuned to undertake the work of ad
ministering it Many have thus far
been considered, but no one chosen. I

WORK OF EDUCATION
APPROVAL OF SCHOOLS
NORMAL TRAINING.
FOR
A LARGER NUMBER THIS YEAR
A Ruling Against the Bankers' Life
- Company Other Matters From
the State Capital.
State Superintendent Bishop has
made an announcement concerning
the approval of high schools for nor
mal training. The list includes a to
tal of 110 schools, of which 103 are
high schools and seven academies.
The normal training law was en
acted by the legislature of 1907. Dur
ing the school year 1907-8 sixty-eight
schools were approved for normal
training, with an enrollment of 1,200
pupils in the normal training classes.
During the year 1908-9 eighty-six high
schools and eight academies were ap
proved, representing a combined en
rollment of 1,600 pupils taking the
course. For this school year the 110
schools approved for the work have
enrolled in their normal training
classes a total of 1,850 pupils.
In May, 1909, there were graduated
from the normal training high schools
775 pupils, who had completed the
regular high school course of study
and the course in normal training.
Reports show that of this number
575 of them are teaching this fall.
County superintendents are enthusi
astic over the good work these young
teachers are doing in the school room.)
Insurance Agents Are Out.
The state insurance board handed
out a ruling revoking the licenses of
the ten agents of the Bankers' Life
Insurance company of Lincoln.
The following is the form of the
letter sent out fto the agents under
investigation by Auditor Barton, head
of the insurance board:
"By the authority vested in me by,
the laws of the state of Nebraska,
and as I fully believe that your con
duct aa an insurance agent and the
methods used by you in procuring
business is in violation of law and
contrary to the rulings of the insur
ance department and against public
policy,. I hereby revoke your license
No. as agent of the Bankers' Life
Insurance company of Lincoln, Neb.,
dated , 1909."
While the action taken is sweeping,
the twenty-eight affidavits introduced
in evidence before the board contained
many suggestions of irregularities
that the agents excluded under the
order for the most part did little to
refute.
Plans Issue of Stock.
The application of the Chicago &
Northwestern Railroad company for
authority to issue $30,502,800 worth of
common stock has been granted by
the Nebraska railway commission.
The stock will be issued in the form
of 305,028 shares of common stock of
the par value of $100 each. The stock
is to be issued for the purpose of
"constructing, improving and equip
ping its railway," otherwise the re
quest filed with the commission con
tains no hint of how, when or in what
one or more of the states the work
is to be done.
Historical Society Wants Money.
Notwithstanding the State Histor
ical society gets an appropriation of
$15,000 biennially, it has its solicitors
out asking for money. One was at
the state house asking financial aid
with which to print some report the
society is to make and for which the
solicitor said there was no money
available to pay the bill.

Kearney Normal school reported to
the normal board that Mr. D. Cupid
was playing havoc with his teaching
force and he wanted an injunction
issued or something done to head him
off. A number have been lost and
others have the fever.
Civil Service Examinations.

examinations to be held at Lincoln
and Omaha: January 25, stenograph
er and typewriter, all branches of the
service; January 25, stenographer,
departmental service; January 25,

An Unfounded Report
The story printed by an Omaha pa
per to the effect that W. J. Bryan
and his brother, C. W. Bryan, have
been asking Governor Shallenberger
to call an extra session of the legis
lature in order to secure the passage
of a resolution for the submission of
the initiative and referendum consti
tutional amendment is not warranted.
C. W. Bryan made a denial of the
story when questioned in regard to
the matter. "Neither W. J. Bryan nor
myself has asked the governor to call
a special session." he said.
Demurrer Overruled.
The state railway commission over
ruled the demurrer filed by John L.
Webster to the complaint of Lysle I
Abbott and others asking that the
commission value the property of the
Omaha &. Council Bluffs Street Rail
way company. The demurrer was
based on the contention of the street
railway company that the complaint
was not in proper form and that the
commission has no jurisdiction. It
I will now be necessary for the street
railway company to answer the com-
j plaint and set a date for the hearing.
They Didn't Have to Change
$ During the years ia which our pare
food laws have been put into effect
there has been a great hurrying and
currying en the part of the food man
ufacturers to change their methods to
make them conform to the law.
The Quaker OataCompany is a con
spicuous exception. It was admitted
that Quaker Oats was .as pure and
clean as possible and that It was an
ideal food.
It is so cheap that any one can af
ford it and so nourishing that every
one needa it The result of last year's
experiments at Yale and other points
where food values were tested is that
Quaker Oats has been adopted by
many persons as their food on which
they rely for adding vigor and endur
ance of muscle and brain.
The Quaker Oats Company meets
all demands in the way it packs
Quaker Oats; regular size packages
and the large size family package;
the. latter, both: with and without
china. 4

the secrets of safieriag, and they have beea coafided to Dr.

That lew of these women have been dJaappoiated ta their ex

efl women treated by Er. Pierce have beea absolutely aad
altogether cored. Such a record woold be reatarkable if the
cases treated were numbered by baodreds only. But when
