Mutter for oii mill a 1'rotcnt Will llu I'llt-il. LINCOLN , Sept. 24.-Speclal.-The ( ) cer tificate of nomination of the candidates se lected by the sliver republicans was filed with the secretary of state today. It Is signed by A. J , Weaver , chairman , and P. II. Hlncs , secretary , and certifies that John J. Sullivan of Columbus was nominated for ono of the Judges of the supreme court nd George F. Kenowor "f Wlsncr and E. Von Forcll of Kearney an regents of the State university. The certificate , also states that the party adopted a party emblem , to-wlt : "The efllgy or likeness of the Lib erty Hell , with the word 'Liberty' appearing thereon. ' It Hays that the distinctive prin ciple nduptcd by said convention was and Is the free coinage of silver. " It U believed by prominent republicans that the title "Silver Hepubllcan" over the fusion ticket Is an encroachment on the real republican title , uuder the now ballot law , and that It Is alto calculated to de ceive the voters. The republican state com mittee ha made arrangement ! ) to Immedi ately flic a protest against the using of tlie deceptive title on Hie olllclal ballot. The result of this protest is problematical , as there Is seine division of opinion among the fitatu house people as to the Intent and scope of the ballot Inw relating to titles ot parties. There U an expressed IntvnUin on the part of some of the fuslonlsts to protest against the using of the title "National Democrat" on the ballot and they conccdo < hat the silver republicans and the national democrats are standing on the same ground DH to encroachment on party names. A. E. Sheldon , clerk of the State Printing board , and who stands very close 'to the board In maltern of this kind , bays there Is much doubt as to Umv the board will construe the law. As an Individual hu says It makes no dlfTcrcnco to him how many tickets there arc on thi : ballot or by what names they are called , yet he acknowledges that many voters might be confused by the titles and that u strict construction of the law might shut out both the sliver republicans and national democrats. Hcnton Maret , private secretary of the governor , said some days ago thai In his opinion thu uclng of illlToreiit names by the fusion clement was all foolishness. dlo believed that they all represented the same principle , were In effect one party and shuuld gut together under ono name. llu thought U must Inevitably como to this In the next year or two. | TOO MANY DITCHES DUO. Secretary Wilson of the State lloard of Irrlgatluti has Just returned from Dawes and Sioux cuunticH , where he has been Investi gating the condition of the Irrigation ditches and claims along While river and Hat creek. " \Vhero thn land han had water hu finds that the crops are flourishing , but In a general way the Irrigation of that part of the state is In a deplorable condition. He finds that claims have been filed and ditches dug to UKO tun times niqrc water than there In In the streams. In many 'cases men have loca ted ditches where they cannot possibly get a drop of water. This Is especially true of the country along White river In both Dawes and Sioux countlcn. The secretary and his assistants Inspected thu so-called river In many places bolo\\ Crawford and found It to tie a stream ot water varying from tbrec to ten feet In width. In that locality the strongest measurement only showed a flow of twelve cubic feet of water per second. On the estimate that It takes one cubic foot per second to water seventy acres thuro Is fiot enough water In the river at that point to Irrigate 1,000 acres. Yet 'ho people there ficcm to expect that ten t".c that much laud can be watqred und huve | leil | claims accordingly. In the lint Creek country the conditions are a llttlo better , as the filings ore mostly ot the heads of 'the streams where thcru are flowing springs. Secretary Wilson believes that a great many people In the northwest part of the state must give up the Idea of Irrigation and turn their attention wholly to stockralslns , If thuy expect to re main there. The hearing in the case brought by T. II. Tibbies against the railroad companies of iho state. In which the question of exorbl- tnat rates Is to bo examined Into , has been adjourned to October 12 , The Inuring was to have como oft on the 27th of this month , and U Is stated by the secretaries of thu JJoard ot Transportation that the delay IB mudo because aji opinion la expected from the federal court In the maximum rate case on the 10th of October. The Yelser telephone case Is sU to bo heard at Onmhu on the 4th of next month. STATE TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION.
