Not IS.vactly SatlHlled.
Hon. J. Sterling Morton of Nebraska City
tins resigned from his position on the state
beard of World's fair commissioners. In an
Interview with Mr. Morton ho is reported to
have said that because of the small appropri
ation to carry on the work of making a
Nnhrnilrn nvhthlt. thn rnmtnlsslnnnrs wnillfl
not bo able to accpmpllsh anything , and ho
did not want to aharo the public criticism
sure to follow. It was slated hero today ,
however , that Mr. Morton's reason for ro-
slenlng was duo to personal plquo growing
out of the fact that his recognized abilities
had not been considered in the appointment
of the executive board of the Nebraska com
mission. This mav or may not bo true , but
in any avcnt his friends uro criticising him
in somewhat sovuro terms because ho has
seen tit to decline a position In whicn ho
could bo of signal service to tbo state and in
which ho could honor himself.
It Is also said that Governor Thaycr will
appoint a successor to Mr. Morton within a
day or two. Ho 1s bolng urged by certain
politicians to make tlio appointment at onco.
Tholr reasons for giving this advice way
have some connection with the affairs u't
Washington , but there uro no good grounds
for stating this to bo a fact.
A reporter called on Governor Thaycr nnd
asked what ho proposed doing in reference
to the matter. Tbo governor rapllod that ho
know nothing of the resignation.
ItiiH.y Formulating Plans.
A urominont member of the Nebraska
World's fair commission was soon at his
hotel In this city today , nnd among otbor
things said : "Tho Nebraska commission bus
boon at work formulating plans , but there
are a few obstacles in the way which must
bo overcome. At a recent mcotinc with the
national board in Chicago the Nebraska com
mission was ndviso-J that Its exhibit in the
Nebraska building proper would bo per
mitted to ombruco every feature of Ne
braska's Industries , products aud resources.
Our aggressive commission wont to work on
this Idea , but n few weeks later was notified
by the Chicago people that tholr decision
with roforance to state exhibits had bcon
nomewnat mouilleu. it bad been uetorralnod
that all manufactured products of the
state would bo barred out of the Nebraska
building and taken over to the main or na
tional exhibit and there find tholr place
among the exhibits of the uiriouH states of
the union. This decision , in the opinion of
the Nabrasku commissioners , would reduce
the Nebraska exhibit proper to the impor
tance ot a pumpkin show , and there was con-
aldontblo cf u protest raised on account of it.
"Tho commissioners forthwith opened up a
correspondence with the commissioners of
Iowa , Kansas , South Dakota and ether west
ern states , the idea bolng to moot In Chicago
on DocomburU and make a formal proton
ugalnst the policy of the National board with
reference to state exhibits.
"This move mis proved to bo a very popu
lar ono and on the data mentioned no loss
than 100 Uolcgatos from territory west of the
Mississippi river will bo In Chicago with
tholr grievances.
"This , " said the gentleman , "Is ono of the
reasons tlio work In Nebraska has not pro
ceeded on n large scale , and nothing of very
grout importance can bo done until this quos
tlon la settled ono way or the othor. "
All Suronn in Otoa County.
AU danger of a conflict between tbo state
authorities and the Otoa county squatters
has passed away. Commissioner Humphrey
and State Draughtsman Alex. Sehlogel re
turned today from the scone of the disputed

the controversy. The squatters had boon Informed -
formed by an ox-couutv surveyor that the

from the Missouri river , were free to all
comers , and some seven or eight families at
once proceeded to exorcise the rights of
quuttor sovereignty. They madd improve
ments , and , by reason of the remarkable
fortuity of the soil , raised enormous crops of
corn this year , In some Instances the yield
averaging eighty bushels nor aero. A gen
eral conference was hold botwcen Mo.isrs.

land in question will be Immediately sur

which they are ready and anxious to do.

World's Fair Appropriation.
According to President Palmer of the

to the lo.m. Mr. Palmar , who has Just re

Intorostin the far | and was friendly to it in

dates , Palmer says : "Springer , Crist ) and
McMililn are oil with us. 1 understand , but
Mills refuses to commit himself. The con
gressmen wo saw wore all well disposed and
tboro seems to bo no doubt that the loan will
pass. President Harrison will make the
world's fair the subject of a special message
to congress , and that will secure ns fnvor-
able consideration as we could wish. "
"Something has boon said about asking for
an appropriation outright instead of u loan.
What do you think of the Ideal"
