? jiveot.M , Nob. , Aug. 1. [ Special to Tun
'jBen. ' I--Tho state board of health mot at the
tate house today , nnd the secrotarlas organ-
Jied by electing Dr. .1. V. negtitol of Friend
prrsltlor.t , Dr. C. F. Stewart of Auburn vlco
president , Dr. F. D. Haldoman of Ord secre
tary nnd Dr. B. T. Allen of Omaha troasuror.
The board was assigned rooms on the third
floor of the building near the gallery of rop-
- ball. About hundred
J-osontatlvo two physi
cians called In person , snirfo with tholr dllpo-
tnat wrapped nround wooden rollers nnd
Others carrying bitr frames enclosing the
precious documents , Tha board has received
nbout llvo hundred applications for certifi
cates under the now lav/ ,
The day was consumed in registering these
applications and explaining the law to the
callers. The board estimates that there are
nbout two thousand physicians In the state ,
and the secretaries think It will bo two
tnantba before thny will bo nil properly regis
tered.
It Is the Intention of the board to moot
nbout every two weeks , and the next meet
ing Will bo held August l.'l. Some physicians
have misunderstood tha now law nnd sent
tholr certificates of registration under the
bid law. These are of no uso. The board
tnust have tbo diplomas , that they may bo
toxamlnod AS to their genuineness.
Of the 200 physicians In Omaha only nbout
twonty-llvo have applied for reg-
fstrutfon under the now law. Many
Of thorn probably have delayed this
notion In hones tnat the board would hold n
piootlng In Omaha , thus saving the trip to
Lincoln and the carriage of diplomas. The
lecrotanos j y It will bo Inexpedient to meet
'n Omaha. Under the interpretation of the
aw mudo by tbo attorney genoroal , diplomas
nuit bo deposited with the stale board and
oft In its possession for ten days before Issu
ing certificates thoreon. ! t a meeting of the
joard were to bo held In Omaha it wouId , bo
necessary to transport the diplomas to Lin
coln or else store thorn In Omaha. In the
alter case they would not bo easy of access
o the secretaries , who are supposed to oxum-
Jn- > the diplomas critically in order to detect
bogus documents.
The secretaries report n general disposition
nmonc physicians all ever the state to com
ply with the law , but It brings out a few
bueor cases. Ono practitioner has no di
ploma , and ho has had hU Molhodtst minis
ter wrlto a letter vouching for his character
'bnd ' ability. In another case the applicant
Wilts a certificate on the strength of havlnc
peen "a doctor In the army , " Others display
bn astonishing amount of illltoricy. The
board has appointed Alow & Ponfold of
pmuha general distributing agents for its
planks , which will bo sent free on applica
tion.

George II. Bush has sued the Lincoln
'utreot railway company for 81,000 damages
for being put off a street car. The city or-
idlnaucos require every street car company to
[ fell six chocks for 25 cents and to have thorn
'On sale In tholr cars. Since putting on eloc-
trlo cars the Lincoln street car comnany has
'Offered ' twonty-two tickets for $1 , to bo
bought at designated business places , but
has refused to sell them on the cars
or to sell six checks for 25 cents. A faw
tiays ago Bush got on a car to ride homo ,
pnd offered the conductor 2.5 cents for six
tickets. The conductor had none to sell and
Bush refused to pay faro. This occurred
feovoral times , thn conductor. , allowing him to
frldo , but on Wednesday tha car was stopped
nnd the patrol wagon called. Tha police de
cided that no ordinance or law had been
violated and refused to make nn arrust.
Last evening Bush tendered a quarter us
Usual , without getting the tickets he asked
tor , nnd the street car men , noting
tinder orders , forcibly put him off the car.
Banco the suit. The people of Lincoln are
Very much interested in the case , because
there has boon very general complaint at ttio
arbitrary ruling of the now street car com
pany. They have been In the habit of gettlnc
nix tickets for 25 cents. They protest that it Is
an unnecessary convenience to look up n
down town ofllco to buy street car checks ,
land they object to tha incrca.su In the price.

Governor Thayor. when nskod if ho hod
anything to say nbout the story In an Omaha
paper of Friday alleging that he was to re
sign soon , replied :
"J saw the statement but hardly thought I
would take the trouble to answer it. The
story is very Improbable , yes , utterly prepos
terous. I did not notice it as I do not like to
intcnoro with the business of that paper in
getting up fakes. I do not ilka to injure any
man's business. It states that Tom Majors
was In Omaha and was up all night , night
before last , and that that paper had a reporter -
porter on uis crack. The fact is. Governor
Majors loft Omaha night before last , Thurs
day , with mo , on tho" : 10 train , and came to
Lincoln where ho remained nil night. The
public can see how llttlo faith can bo placed
in the statements of the great 'fakir.1"
THINKS IT A SCHEME.
Governor Thayer , having dropped nn inti
mation that ho know of some of the inside
workings of the alleged combination between
John M. Thuraton , J. S. Clarkson and others
to defeat the ronomiuation of President Harrison
risen , was asked by a Bui : roprcsontativo to
unbosom himself. lie declined to reveal his
"pointers , " but cxptoased nlinsolf emphatic
ally In the following language.
"I have noticed that-thoro is such a plan
and that there has been for some timo. That
there Is such a scheme in cxlstonco I have
not a shadow of n doubt. John M. Thurs-
tou had ono of his regular interviews in a
Chicago paper nbout ten days ago. In that
interview ho holdup James ( J. Bluliio and
'Rot' Clarkson as the tlckot to bo nominated
by tha national republican convention In
1603. Both of these gentleman , Clark-
son nnd Thurston , wore disappointed
that they wcro not invltod to
take positions In Harrison's cabinet
two years ago lust March. ThniMton us secre
tary of the interior and Clarkson ns post
master general , and it scums they cannot
forgot that disappointment. No ono admires
Mr. Blauio moro than I do , but I nm thor
oughly convinced Hint under no circum
stances will ho permit his name to bo lined.
Ho is loyal to President Harrison , and tha
condition of his health J3 such that ha could
not stand the fatigues of a presidential cam
paign. HarrUon has given the pcoplo an
able and faithful administration , an adminis
tration that has boon devoted to tha Interests
of the whole country. Furthermore , Harri
son is growing hi popular esteem and favor ,
and I believe I speak the sentiments of the
republican population of Nobrasku In expressing -
pressing the conviction that when the time
comes tno delegation from Nebraska will tjlvo
him tholr support. "
