LINCOLN. F..b. I ( Special. ) Superin
tendent II. F. Lang ban ngaln been cclleil
en the carpet by the State Hoird of Pnbl-
Landk and Hulldlngs to explain some Irreg
ularities In bis method of conducting lh-
affairs of the Home for Feeblt Mimic 1 at
BeatriceHe was closeted with the bonrJ
eevcral hours and It Is understood that he
was Rcverely reprimanded for what Is ald
to have been a careless error.
Several weeks npo Superintendent Lan ;
was notified by a railroad station n rnt at
Deatrlco that a consignment of tno hellers
for the new beating plant had been receive 1
and would bi turned over to him upon the
payment of the transportation charges. \
personal claim for the amount of theje
charges was rcccnllv fllcj with the board
by Mr. Lang , and a few days laser ths
railroad company filed a claim tor a similar
amount.
The suspiclona of the members of th ?
Board of Public Lands and Buildings wcro
at once aroused and Mr. Lang was callcl
In to explain matters. When questioned
by the board Lang clalmej that tne
railroad company refused to deliver ihj
boilers before the transportation charges
were paid and that to jirevent any unnec
essary delay he vVrote out a personal chcl ,
for the amount required lly some error
both the railroad company and Mr. Ling
then applied to the Board of Public Land *
and Buildings for reimbursement.
Incident lleinlli.nollier. .
This Incident recalls another o-casion
when Superintendent Lang was summoned
to the state house to make an explanation
of his conduct. He had attempted to secure
the allowance1 of a claim for $7CO , wblh h
represented he had paid out of his o n
pocket for construction work on th new
hospital building al Beatrice. Land Com
missioner Wolfe refused to approve the claim
and It u.ts. returned to th : superintendent.
In a few days Lang again sent his claim tc
the state house , together with a number ol
vouchers and bills The vouchers showed
that Lang had expended certain sums for
wort on 'he building , while the bills were
elmply unreceipted claims. The latter were
placed carefully below the receipted vouchers
in buch a way that unless a person examined
nearly every one of the several hundred
papers separately the difference could not be
detected. The summary showed the total
amount of both the paid and unpaid bills.
The fact that some of the claims were not
receipted , or even approved , was discovered
before the warrant wab issued and Superin
tendent Lang was then called upon lo show
receipted vouchers for the full amount. He
finally succeeded In getting the necessary
papers and the claim was allowed after a
delay of several weeks.

LINCOLN , Feb 2 ( Special ( Acting
Chancellor Bc ey and members of the fac
ulty of the State university have for some
time been considering the Harvard system
of entrance requirements with a view to ito
adoption In the Nebraska institution. By the
Harvard method , instead of asking secon
dary schools to conform lo college entrance
requirements , the entrance requirements are
made to conform to what Is best to offer In
the hlsh schools. Speaking of the proposed
change. High School Inspector Crabtrec
said "The new plain Is a soltulon for a most
preplc-Klug problem , that of pleasing the
colleges and at the same time meeting the
just demands of the community. We were
led into the dilemma by our system starting
from two centers , the elementary school
and the college. The two met and we have
not been able to weld them together well In
the high school. The plan removes that
difficulty. H gives a oneness to our educa
tional system that will strengthen all Its
partP. the college as much as the elementary
and secondary schools.
"It is not much of a step for the State
university to go to the Harvard sjstcm.
She has been bending the old sjstem until
she Is almost Into the new without being
aware of It. When credit Is allowed for
such as physical geography , phjsiology and
'civics ' , subjects taught In all our leading
high schools , allowing also a reasonable
choice of alternate subjects , the university
will have the Harvard reform eystem. The
connection between the university and the
high schools Is so clcee and harmonious In
this state that not only school men , but
patrons also , want entrance credit for every
subject taken up In the high echool State
universities will be forced sooner or later by
public sentiment to adopt this plan.
"The new plan would not necessarily affect
the courses of study already prescribed In
high schools It would permit high schools
to make their courses somewhat more flex
ible. The high schools could have , as at
present , elective courses as are found In a
few schools , or ( Ued courses as are found
in most high schools. It would simply en
courage the adoption of courses that will
do the greatest good for the greatest num
ber. Entrance credit would not be allowed
on every branch that might be put Into M
course , but on only such as are of sufficient
importance as to force themselves Into
courses of study In the best high schools.
The standard of work would always be taken
Into account. "

Judge Hollcnbeck said to a Bee correspond

of the plan proposed by The Bee of having
the district court judges assist the supreme

"The supreme court should be relieved.
As now situated , the delay caused by an ap

practically amounts to a denial of justice. 1
have not examined the legal questions in

WASHINGTON , Feb. 2. At a fprciil
meeting of the wa > s and means crmmi' ee
today it was decided to report a bill cMab
llihfnt ; n tariff system for Porto Rlro era
a basis of 25 per cent of the rates In the
regular tariff law.
Reports also were received from the rub-
committee , which has considered to wha'
extent the term United States an used In
the constitution relates to the outUIng te--
ritory recently acquired by this country
majority of the subcommittee , comprlslnt
the republican members , reported In sub-
rtanco that congress has practlcallj unlim
ited power In dealing with these territories ,
Thn minority , comprlflng Rlchnrd on , dem
ocrat , and New lands , slhcr , hold In sub
stance that all constitutional restrictions ex
tend to the newly acquired territory and thai
the powers of congress are thereby limited
IlptrrmltirH Line of I'ollo.
The reports on the meaning of the term
United States , " as applicable to Porto Rico
the Philippines. Hawaii and other posses
sions , were received with great interest ami
were regarded aa determining a most Impor
tant line of policy by those In authority
The majority report , by Dalzell of Penn-
syhanla , Hopkins of Illinois and Orosvcnot
of OMo , Is as follows :
rirst-That the teun "United Stales. " Ir
that provision of the con" Itutlon whirl

United States" means > nd is confined It
the s tate th.T constitute thefcdcra
union and does not cover nKo tnc terrltor >

Second That the authorities treatins ol
this question and decisive of It are those
tint trc.it of and involve In their decl lot
thr duestlon whether the cons'itutlon. e >
proprlo rigorr , and Independent of treat }
stipulation or onurpsslonul legislation , ev
tends to territory veiled to and ncqulroi
I.- the United Sta cs.
Third That the weight of these nuthorl
ties .sustains the follow Ins propositions
\lz . ( a ) That the United States nriy ac >
quire .errltory either under the treaty-
making iind w.ir power of flic con tltutlor

Wlmt the Minority Tlilnkn.
The minority report by Richardson sajs-
The meaning of the term "United States'
has been defined by the supreme court o
the United State ? Thd question wa
passed upon by Chief Justice Marshall o
the btiprenie court and ho undertook t <
define what was meant by the term as I
was used in section S of article i of th
cons'itutlon. " "
Richardson then quotes from Justice Mar
sball's decision.
Richardson also refers to a similar rulin
by Chief Justice Taney in 19 Howard , 391
and says no other construction has eve
been given by the supreme court. Man
other cases are cited in general harmon
v.ith this view. Richardson savs
It follows , therefore , that the terr
"United States , ' as used In _ .e section rc
ferred to , means all the states and terrl
lories of the United States The construe
tlon of fhe term , asslven above , is in ; ier
feet harmony with the views of statesmci
and jurists and of the practice of our KOV
crnmcnt for more than 100 years , and un ;
other construction would work a revolutio
In our system of 'axation It will be cl )

committee submit no opinion or deU&lon a

The committee discussed the reports a
length and then , by a party vote of 8 to <
endorsed the majority report.
