LINCOLN" , Jan. 15. ( Special Tclcgrnm. )
HMplto the frantic arsortloiw of n few
opponents of the proposal to appropriate n
sufllctcnt sum of mon. y from the state
treasury to enable the state of Nobrtska to
mnkd a creditable allowing at thefrans -
mlwlsolppt Exposition , the fact yet rem-ilns
that the preposition la growing In favoi
among the mrmbera of the legislature. Tin.
bill Introduced by Representative Diulle )
Smith of Omt.ha , although not yet out of
the printer's hands , Is alreaily the topic cf
conservation in legislative circles In Lincoln.
It U duveloplng some warm frictuU among
the populist iiicmborj , alti.orgn nil do not
agree with all t o expressed tcrmi of the
bill. Many amendments will UoublUas bo
offered , and already some practical suggfa-
tlona ure talked of.
Ex-Sctiator II. 0. Stewart of Dawes county ,
one of the best known mlddle-of-lhc-road
populists of the state , for two terms a
senator from his district and assistant ucc-
retary of the senate at the present w.cjslou ,
aald thU ir.urn.lng that , generally speaklnR.
ho wit ? In favor of the appropriation , lie
believed ( fiat the provision making the
iwelvo state'directors members of the regular
Hoard of Directors af tha Trnnsmisslaslppl
and International Exposition company was
u very wise one , and that It would enable
the state to cccure better returns fur the
money Invented than If a commission xveix-
appolnted to act Independent of thu Hxpail-
tlon company. Under the plan adopted in
nuking tli. ; appropriation for the Nebraska
exhibit at the World's fair , said Senator
Stewart , .1 large proportion of the money \vsa
dissipated in the payment of the salaries and
expenses of a great many olflcIaU. Senator
Stewart Is of the opinion , however , that the
Rtato should secure aomo tangible return for
the money voted to the exposition. He
sui ; jk-d that a provision be Inserted In thi
bill requiring the Kxpcnltlon company to
donate to the stale at the close of the fall-
some of the larger buildings , to be
wed for the benefit of the people
of the state. In ordir to give his Idea
pr.ir.tlca ! form ho suggested that It might
be a wise move to either locate the big
fair on the State fair grounds or remove
tli'o fair grounds permanently to a point
nearer the city of Omaha , and by locating
the Exposition buildings upon the new
slto give to the state of Nebraska some
permanent buildings for State fair pur
poses thati would mike the State fair the
superior of'any , hrld In the United States.
He also suggested that at least one of the
'
buildings , , lt'constructed of structural iron ,
bo removed to the city of Lincoln to be
used as n part of the equipment of the
University , of 'Nebraska. One of the Expo
sition bulldlnss , ho thought , could be de
signed lu such a manner that all of the
permanent structural portion could be ad
mirably pscdfor one of the large buildings
at the university.
Anothc suggestion made by Senator
Stewart , wns fhat the bill should contain a
provision requiring the Exposition manage
ment to , dqvoe | a portion of tne money ap-
proprlatcJ to a model Irrigation farm of
at leant forty acres. Upon this farm should
be planted-various crops , nil to heplaced In
the bends of practical Irrigation men who
\voud ! show - -immense advantages , of
Irrigation through the entire season.
Senator Stewart Is one of the leaders of
the populist pjirty and comes , from , a section
of the , .atdte'ivhcrc-thu prevailing buslpess
dcprc loV Pinches , the hardest. He Is ,
nevertheless , favorable' ' to an appropriation
commcnsur'&lc with the" Importance and
dignity ot the state , Uuu , he'saysi 'that , ns
far as hla people are concerned , they feel
that the state should have asms tangible
return for the money the state proposes to
Invest. *

CHICAGO , Jan. 15. ( Special Telegram. )
Senator Crawford yeateriay Introduced Into
.ho aenata at Springfield a bill providing
for the participation of the state of Illinois
In tha Transmlrslcalppl and International Ex-
pcsl.lon , > and for th3 appropriation of $100-
OCO for ( hit purpose. The bill contemplates
Jis appc'Intmcnt by tha govsrnor of three
commissioners , who are to receive not to
exceed $ J,099 each for their expenses , and for
.ho appolntmsnt of a salaried secretary. U
also provides for the erection of the proper
state buildings.
Senator Crawford Is one of the oldest Chicago
cage membera of the upper houaj and U
usually a number of the steering committee
which practically contro s the right-of-way
of all bills on the calendar. As yet nc
committees have been appointed 'in either
branch of the legislature , It being the un
derstanding that tha complete organization
will be deferred until the senatorial fight
Is out of the way. This bill has been very
fortunate In being Introduced at this time ,
and In fact. It 'is tha only bill of general
Interest ao far Introduced In either In * .2
The representative of the expedition having
the matier In chars ? has enjoyed the friend
ship of a'lactlcns and uvoi-led Identifica
tion whh any particular candlJsey.
BeforSenatpr Crawford would consent to
introduce and champion the bill It was nec
essary to show him that Influential commer
cial and railroad Interests In Illinois were
favorable thereto. The senator himself Is
strongly In favor of the bill and will guard
Its Interests at ovary stage. It Is under-
otood that already the knowledge of this
contemplated action on the part of Illinois
has started a movement St. Louis looking
to similar action en ths part of the Missouri
legislature , as St Louis has trade Interests
that cnnnot afford to stay out with Chicago
ThU action In Illinois should stir .up all
the wes'ern ' ulates , and surely Nebraska
must. In comparison with this amount , gran ;
all that Is being aalceJ in the way of an
appropriation at this session In Lincoln.

The crime wUi which the two men are

Just before midnight Monday he was
awakone-d by blows on his dcor. When he

wlthoiu any preliminary words. They beat
him with their fists nnd with plccen of furni
ture , and kicked him severely. I'falcon
finally became unconscious and then the two
mi'ii desisted.
The two toughs left the house at once.

house , which U t'ltuated r.car Elkhorn. was
