bo Indefinitely postponed. ' The bill proposes
to extend the pro'vlflons of the valued policy
law to personal property , During the debate -
bate the remarks of several sanators took
on a personal aspect and no llttlo bitterness
of feeling was manifested on both sides.
The discussion commenced as s > eon as
the reading of the journal had commenced
The eommlUoo on Judiciary , 'through its
chairman , Mr. McGann , recommended the
Indefinite postponement of the Insurance bill
Mr. Murphy moved as n amendment thai

Knowledge will help to keep a family

sickness of their children. Some standard
medical book ought to be in every home
library. The most complete book of this
kind fs Dr. I'iercc's Common Sense Medical'
Adviser , It contains more exact informa
tion about the human body in health and
disease than any other book ever printed in (
the English language. More copies of it
have been sold than of any other medical
work. It is written in plain language , free
from technicalities , and in the work of a reg
ularly graduated , experienced physician. It
contains hundreds of useful receipts , n of
knowledge of which will prevent much sick

that the only purpose of the bill wna to
vxunri tbo provisions ot the volac-i policy
Jsr. to personal property. Ho said that tha
bill had been treated unfairly by the Judlc
lary committee. He had himself appeared
before that committee with an amendrocn
pxomptlng mercantile stocks from the opera
lions ot the proposed law. The Judlclarj
committee declined to consider his amend
nipnt and voted to summarily kill the bill
Ho declared , moreover , that the bill was In
line with the valued policy law and thai I
would put an end to one of the extortion
now practiced by the Insurance trust , Hi
contended that the man who paid premium
year after year for Insurance upon his per
sonsi property was entitled to the benefit
ot the valued policy law , Just as much as wa
tbo owner of a building.
Mr. Kantom said It was well enough t
rail against tho. Insurance trust , but the sen
ator who offered the bill under discussion wa
net noting In good faith. For two years hi
had been the county attorney of Gage county
During those two years a republican flllei
the office of attorney general. When dl"
tbo senator from Gage make any effort t
proceed against the Insurance or any othe
trust ? It was well enough for the senate
from Gage to Insinuate that ho had not re
ceived fair treatment at the hands of th
Judiciary committee , yet that commlttc
had rejected the bill by an almost unanl
mous vote.
vote.EXPLAINING
EXPLAINING HIMSELF.
"I didn't say I had not been fairly trcatc <
by the committee , " remarked Murphy.
"You did say so. " retorted Ilansom.
"I said my bill had not been treatci
fairly. The committee strangled the bll
without considering U. "
"Yes , wo did strangle It , and. the sonat
will justify our actions , " was Hansom'
reply.
"I want to ask you a question : Did
not offer to- Include the provisions of my
bill In an ehtlrcly new measure , so ns note
to anieuid' the present valued policy lav
In any manner ? "
"Well , you Just keep still awhile , " sal
Ransom. "I'll come to that question fur
ther on In my speech. "
Continuing his remarks Mr. Ilansom In
slstc-d that the bill under consideration hat
not been Introduced In good faith. It wa
introduced with the deliberate purpose o
destroying the valued policy law , at the be
hest of the Insurnnco trust.
Mr. Feltz opposed the bill under discussion
Insurance companies were a necessity to th
Elite , < ind the bill would have the tondcnc ;
to drlvo Insurance companies out of Nc
braska. Ho thought the bill clearly con
templated ovcrlnsuranco and thus offered a
Inccmtlvo to Incendiarism.
Mr. Howcll said the bill very forcibly re
called the recent campaign. The republican
In tholr platforms said they were opposct
to any amendment to the valued policy law
Yet this bill , Introduced by a rebublican
EeittsAor , did propose to amend the valuei
policy law. by o- bill which , If It should be
como a law , would deprive the law of It
effectiveness.
MURPHY DEFENDS HIS DILL.
Mr. Murphy spoke In defense of the bill
He said ho was not surprised to hear the
senator from Douglas ( Mr. Ransom ) appea'
to the prejudice of the senate and attcmp' '
to draw the party lines when any measim
affecting the Insurance trust was up fo :
consideration. Ho was not surprised tha
the senator from Douglas , In his zeal to
servo the Insurance trust , should charge
that the bill was not offered In good faith
As far as hU record as county attornej
was concerned , that record showed that he
had by his personal efforts' broken up thi
local Insurance board at Beatrice. Tht
emissaries of the Insurance trust used ever }
means at their disposal to re-establish the
board , but he had threatened to bring actloi
against them If they reorganized the board
because the local Insurance board , as I
exists In Nebraska , was conceived In the
womb of corruption and fraud.
Mr. Ransom resumed the discussion , bu
was Interrupted by a point of order fron
Mr. Murphy , who Insisted that the senator
from Douglas could not speak moro thai
t\Mlco on a pending motion. The point o
order was not sustained , and Mr. Ransom
then directed a few sarcastic remarks towari
that part of the ocnate chamber occupied
by thf- senator from Gage.
Mr. Calrtwell said there were some thlngr
In Jhc > discussion which he took exceptions
to. If a party platform means anything at
all. the republican party In the last cam
paign announced its opposition to any change
In the valued policy law. Ho admitted that
the republican party had been disgraced 1' }
many barnacles , but ho thanked God tha
some of them had boon scraped oft and ihai
the- time was soon coming when the rest of
them would bo swept away , .and the repub-
Ilian party purified.
The previous question was then or'tcre-i
and ilfbato closed. The report of the rom
mltteo was adopted and the bill Indefinite ! }
postponed. , ,
A lnrgo number of bills were reported
and placed on general file. *

MATERIALLY ALTERS THE MEASURE.
In explaining his vote Mr. Howcll stated
hat while ho favored the main provisions
the bill ho objected to the ninth section ,
but tba friends of the bill had given him
.liclr personal assurances that they would '
mvo this section amended In the house U
suit him , therefore ho would vote aye.
The amendment demanded by Senator How
to section 9 Is as follows :
Provided , that of such banks ns shall have
compiled with the provisions of this act (

bile money shall be required | provided
urtlier. that such national banks as In ad- n

lect the money on securities so deposited
with him , or * c > ll such securities and pay
the proceeds to such officer or officers ,
or such pnrt thc of , a may be necessary
to make good the iossca that they might
otherwise have sustained.
Senate fllo No. 191 , by Mr. Deal , was read
the third time and passed , It provides a
legal procedure by which two or more coun
ties may be consolidated Into one county ,
The bill Is for the benefit of such counties
as Grant , Hooker , McPhcrson and Logan.
The people of these sparsely settled counties
feel that their taxes may be lessened If
their county governments can bo conaoll
dated.
The following resolution was offered by
Mr. Mutz and agreed to :
Whereas , There nre now pending In the
legislature of Nebraska bills for the amend
ment of laws relating to the moving of
convicts to the penltcntlnry from the sev
eral countlca of Nebraska , therefore

iffs nnd assistants rinld by the state , to

Incurred In caring for and bringing all
convicts to the penitentiary nfler the sen
tence of the district court.
POSTPONE EXPOSITION ACTION.
Mr. Murphy then called up his resolution
of yesterday urging Immediate action by the
lower house on the TransmUslsslppl Exposi
tion bill. In speaking to the resolution ho
stated that ho offered It In no spirit of partisanship -
sanship , but only in the Interests of the ex
position. The present session was half over
and no progress had been made toward pass.
Ing the bill. It was on tlic general fllo In
the house , where It was likely to remain
until It could bo reached In Its turn , and
there was grave danger that final action
would be delayed until the closing hours of
the session. In the meantime the legisla
tures of other western states wcro nearly
ready to adjourn. IJIlls to aid the exposition
were pending In all the states , but all were
waiting to see what Nebraska would do
Delay might be fatal to the exposltlon'ltself.
Mr. llcol , populist of Custor , stated that
there were objectionable features to the
resolution , which ho would like to have
stricken out before a vote was taken. He
referred to the paragraph which crltlclsei :
the house for Its delay.
Common consent being given , Mr. Murphy
expunged the objectionable features com
plained of by Mr. Goal. The latter then
Et-itcd that he had other objections. Ho
therefore moved that the resolution be re
ferrcd to the committee on labor. .
Mr. Graham , populist of Frontier , move
that the rcsolutlcm bo laid on the table. This
resolution , was them referred to the committee
on labor by an almost strict party vote ,
Senator Ilcaly of Sherman being the enl }
populist to vote no ; but as he had previously
voted to lay the resolution on the table It
could hardly be said that he was friendly to
the subject matter.
The senate then wont Into committee of
the whole and unanimously ordered Mr.
Howell'a joint resolution requesting the gov
ernor to Issue a proclamation Inviting all
states of the union to participate In the
exposition , advanced ito a third reading.
Ths committee then rose and the senate ad
journed until Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.

W1NSIDE , Neb. , Feb. 12. ( Special. ) When

ho lived for some tlmo with a relative of
his , one "Parson" Halliday , who was a
prominent abolitionist , near Harper's Ferry ,
Va. The execution of John Brown at
Harper's Ferry was a subject of vital Inter
est to the people In that vicinity , Mr. Halllday
being among his most ardent sympathizers.
When the1 deed had been accomplished be-
yonit recall and the soul of John Brown had
begun "marching on" Mr. Chapln was cent
to the church near his uncle's homo to toll
the bell as a proof of the grief of John
Brown's friends , but , being a boy , and not
realizing the situation too rully , ho gleefully
rang the 'bell Instead of tolling It. Those
opposed to Mr. Halllday made much of the
fact at tlio time.
Mr. Chapln lived to bo a boy soldier and
fought for his country right valiantly , was In
Ford's theater when President Lincoln was
assassinated and joined In the general grief
over that sad event , but he has often been
reminded of Ills mistake In ringing the bell

FREMONT , Feb. 12. ( SptcIaU The ses
sions ot the Farmers' Institute last evening
and today have been well attended nnd the
papers nnd discussions of n high ordon At
the close ot the program conducted by the
women yesterday afternoon , 0 , C. Holmes
of the Nebraska Manufacturers' nnd Con
sumers' association briefly stated the ob
jects and work of the association nnd In
vited all present to Inspect their exhibits.
The extent ot the development of the manu
facturing Industries In Nebraska , ns shown
by the display of the association , was a sur
prise to many ,
F. H. Vaughn read n practical paper on
"Benefits to Uo Derived from Dairying , "
which was listened to with close attention.
Mr. Vaughn Is nn experienced dairyman
who has made n success of the "business , nnd
his paper was based largely on his personal
knowledge nnd experience.
At the evening eeaslon Prof. Card of the
state university read a paper on "Dlscnses
of Poultry. " Ills nddrcss wns highly enter
taining and the poultry men received n good
many useful Ideas from It. The Income de
rived from poultry raising , and the amount
of money Invested In the business wns n sur
prise to many who were present. A paper
by J. N. Newell , a sugar beet grower of
North Bend , on beet culture closed the
evening. Mr. Newell considered beet rais
ing no experiment , but to have secured
Itself n fixed placeIn agriculture and a
profitable one If rightly managed. The
normal quartet was present and rendered
two selections during the evening.
At the session this morning C. A. Whit-
ford of Arlington spoke on the subject of edu
cation. He argued for a moro practical nnd
less theoretical education for farmer * . In
the discussion which followed the value ol
farmers' clubs as educators was generally
discussed and Hon. J. R. Cantlln of Webster
spoke of the results accomplished last spring
by the organization of thu farmers of this
county In securing lower rates on stock nnd
the abolition of certain charges nt the South
Omaha stcck yards. The paper by H. W.
Marshall of Arlington on Commercial Fruit
Growing" explained all the details of orchard
growing and the care of fruit trees. He
stated that much larger profit could be ob
tained from commercial fruit raising tl'an
from any other branch ot farming In tl Is
vicinity. In the western fruit bslt of .south-
western Iowa , northwestern Missouri , north
eastern Kansas and eastern Nebraska , farm
land commands a higher 'Tlce , and there Is
leas Indebtedness than In other parts of the
same states. The commercial orchard
should ! have at least 90 per cent winter ap
ples. There are two generally ndopto.l
methods of orchard cultivation. In the
first , hardy , long-lived trees are planted
thirty feet apart. Half-way between theao
quicker bearing and short-lived varieties are
planted. In the other method , the trees
should be In rows about twenty-four feet
apart ; the space between the rows while the
trees t are reaching maturity should be planted
with raspbeirles or blackoerrlcs , which will
themselves t pay a good profit. An orchard
well cared for will bo self-sustaining In from
six to nlns years , and at from twelve to fif
teen years should pay a profit of $125 per
acre. Cherry trees and grapes paid well
and' should bo planted In all commercial
orcharcs.
Mr. Conklln of Maple Creek read a paper
on "Cultivation of Corn. " He advocated
deep plowing , followed by shallow cultivation
of the plants. The ground should bo plowed
doe-p , harrowed and disked In good shape
and after the corn Is up harrowed with a
light harrow. Corn roots 'aro ' Injured by
deep cultivation , while shallow cultivation
does not disturb them. A crust forming after
a rain Is an Injury to com for It draws up the
moisture- from the roots of the plants and
should bo broken , up. Corn , ho said , was a
grass and Its manner of growth was like
grasses. Its upper roots were as necessary
to sustain It as the lower ones. Experi
ments In the various government experi
mental stations have demonstrated tliat this
Is the best plan of raising corn.
This afternoon Mr. H. W. Campbell of
Sioux Ci'ty ' outlined his ithoory of soil cul
ture ' , which Is In substance- deep subsoil
plowing , followed by a subsollcr or machine
of some kind which pulverizes and cuts up
the lower soil , Ihon packing the soil hard and
surface cultivation. Care should bo taken
to thoroughly pulverize- and break up the
soil EO thct there are no clods or large masses
of earth In it. For this purpose a special
kind of harrow was best , one that cuts up
the soli underneath. The seed should bo
put In nt a mc/dlum depth and cultivated by
shallow . cultivation and the rows of corn or
potatoes should never bo ridged up. Mr.
Campbell's paper was one of deep Interest
to all present and many questions were
asked him In regard to the details of his
plan. Deep plowing , followed by shallow
cultivation , 'has ' been practiced by many
farmers In this county with very satisfac
tory results.

Rabbi Leo Fr.inkltn poke to a largo con *
gregatlon last evening At Temple Israel In
thla clly. His subject was "What Shnll I
Do to Bo Saved ? " In the course ot his re
marks he severely criticised the Christiana
of today for their narrowness nnd bigotry ,
and placed the Jew with the Unitarian ,
the agnostic and the ethical ctilturlst , Alt
of ( whom ho .maintained were In accord with
the growing liberal spirit of today.
Among other things ho said : "The Chris
tian's heaven and hell have been most dread
fully abused. In my opinion the extreme
ardor that has been exhibited In the dis
cussion cf those two localities lias done moro
to make Christianity distasteful to tha
cltljen of today than any other ono thing.
The most fdnatlc.il jews ! have been freely
expressed nnd circulated concerning thceo
places , and they Imvo done much to create *
a feeling hostile to Christianity ,
"Belief Is the Christian's test of salvation.
Therefore the Jew , Unitarian , the agnostic ,
the atheist and the ethical cultitrlst , no
matter how pure tholr lives may be. must
suffer In hell , while the murderer , with hla
fingers still red with the blood ot his vic
tim. Is baptized , and , because ot that , gnos
straightway to heaven. No wonder ortho
dox Christians are sending out missionaries
Into the world to save the poor Jew !
"Is It nny wonder -with such beliefs pre
vailing that reasonable men everywhere nro
today loosening themselves from the bomU
of such religious bigotry ? What Fays the
Jew of heaven and hell , In contrast with
such opinions ot the orthodox Christian ?
Ho eays , 'heaven Is the beautiful , heaven
Is the true , heaven Is love , heaven la llfo
unendcd. Hell la lazlnc3S , hell Is hatred ,
hell Is the ugly In thought. In dcel : and In
consciousness. ' Thq Jew believes that man
hood Is honorable , womanhood Is sacred , and
childhood Is divine. He believes that such
as so regard these estates may enjoy the
happiness of heaven. He bcllovea thnt thee
who believe that God Is love and love Is
love , those to whom duty Is A , pleasure
and pleasure Is a duty , tho.30 who find If
llfo a duty nnd a purpose , such will flirf
hraven.
"Who are those. In the Jew's opinion , who
will suffer the torments of hell ? Thcso In
whoso breast rage the flrea of discontent
In this life , those who llvo only to put bar
riers , between man and man and to make
others unhappy , those to whom nothing la
sacred , but their own desires and their own
means of gratifying them.
"Contrast the narrow-minded Christian ,
then ( , with the more liberal minded How.
What Is the belief of the latter , you nsk ?
To walk humbly with God , to believe that
love Is highest , that truth U divine , nnd that
moral righteousness Is the key to heaven
and to salvation. "
