Intend to advocate an Increase in the ex
penditure of funds for this particular pur
pose, but he wll' Insist on having all school
property under his supervision kept as neat
as the appropriations will allow. In his
tours over the state, Mr. Fowler has found
considerable school property In a badly
neglected state, due In nearly every Instance
to carelessness on the part of school officers
rather than to lack of funds.
"It Is my Intention to publish some time
during the winter a pamphlet on the rural

"The pamphlet will be well Illustrated. It ,
will contain Illustrations of tho best, the

of the state. I want also Interior views,

publication will bo a graphic exhibit of the
actual school conditions of tho state, de
signed to Inform tho public and show them

and school people labor In different parts
of the state. I have asked the various

to call a business meeting of county su

preceding tho session of tho Nebraska Stato

Invitation Is extended to outgoing olllclals.
Mr. Fowler says that matters pertaining to

foro the superintendents for consideration.
In a circular letter Issued from the de
partment of public Instruction today. Mr.
Fowler requests county superintendents to
be prepared to furnish statistical Informa

tory of the state. It Is said that this di

the preceding editions. Mr. Fowler also
requests each superintendent to furnish tho

Tho proposition of Joseph Hums to do the
pumping of rlty water for 10 cents a
thousand gallons was withdrawn from con
sideration before the council tonight.
Deputy Attorney Flaherty submitted an
opinion holding that tho council was with
out authority to make such a contract ex
cept upon the endorsement of the people at
a general election nnd It was upon the
strength of this opinion that tho proposition
was withdrawn. It is not likely that Mr.

when they are completed tho matter will
be given attention by Governor Savago nnd
Adjutant General Colby. When questioned
this afternoon Governor Savage- said that
hu would accept the recommendation of
General Colby relative to the location of
tho camp. It has been generally under
stood that tho State Military board would
mako the decision, but this Impression ts
erroneous, for the law expressly stipulates
that the governor has authority to desig

The report of the conference between
representatives on the boundaries of the
territorial acquisitions of the United States
has been published. The conference was
constituted of representatives of tho Do
partment of State, the coast and geodetic
survey, tho geological survey, tho census
ofnee and the library of congress, It was
appointed at the request of the census ofllco
and ns nn ndvlsory cominltteo to that ofllco
on certain controverted subjects.
Its members were: Andrew H. Allen,
representing tho Department of State; O. H.
Tlttmann, representing the coast ami geo
detlc survey; Harry Klnrr, from the general
landofllce; Henry Gannett, representing tn
geological survey; Walter F. Wlleox, rep
resenting the census ofllco, ana r. L,eo rnu
lips, chief of the division of maps nnd charts
in the library of congress,
Tho Louisiana purchase was first consid
ered and the situation was, briefly, that the
territory como into tho possession of tho
United States through the treaty of 1S03
with France, having the same extent as
when ceded by Franco to Spain in 1763, and
as when retroceded to Franco by Spain by
the treaty of San Ildcfonso, of October 1
1S00.
To ascertain the extent of this territory
e.istwnrd tho conference examined tho sev
oral well known authorities upon tho early
history of Louisiana Marbols. Lincoii,
Gayarre, Darby. Stoddard and others the
treaties Involved: letters ol .Monroo, jbi
ferson and Talleyrand, certain maps, the
text of the grant to Crozat by Louis XIV
in 1712. tho presentation of tho case u) tue
commissioner of tho general land olllce
in his volume entitled "Tho Louisiana i-ur-
rtc. This oxam nation fallen, now
ever, to ennble the conference to determlno
tho dispute about tho territory between tho
Mississippi and Pcrdldo rivers, claimed
nllko by Spain nnd France, and afterwards
i.v the United States nnd nnauy rcicaseu
by Spain In the treaty of 1819, In language
neslgnlng no limits to west i- lormn.
Knell to lie. Shown.
The conference concluded that tho
boundary line of this territory at tho Mis
sissippi river, as claimed by Spain, hould
be so defined by a legend on the map and
,,n, fhB honndarv lino at tho rerumo river,
as claimed by the United States, should be
similarly Indicated. This conclusion was
renrhnd with an understanding or ndmls-
slon of the following facts touching tho
territory between the two rivers cmimeu
by Spain as a part of West Florida; that tho
territory of Louisiana, as described by
Franco and granted to Crozat by Louis
XIV. extended on the east to the river
Mobile, which, with the port, was ceded
specifically by Franco to England by the
treaty of Paris In 1763. Spain at the samo
tlmo ceding the Floridas to Great Britain,
with St. Augustine and th bay of Pcnsa-
cola thus, lnferentlally as least, deter
mining the respective boundaries of Louis!
ana and West .Florida; that the first oc
cupatlon of tho lutcrlor of the territory
between the rivers Mississippi and Perdido
by the Spaniards was during the war of
tho American revolution, when it belonged
to Great Britain; that Great Britain retro-
ceded 4tho Floridas to Spain In 1783, at
which time tho Louisiana territory belonged
to Spain by the French cession in the pro
Umlnnrles of peace of 1762 (confirmed in
1763), whereby "all the country known un
der tho name of Louisiana" was trans
fcrrcd; that Spain In 1800 retroceded Ixiu
Isiana to France as It was received from
Franco In 1763; that Franco in 1S03 ceded
the territory of Louisiana to the United
States, as discovered and held by France,
ceded" to Spain, and retroceded to France;
and, Anally, that In 1819 Spain ceded to
tho United States nil the territory held or
claimed by his catholic majesty under the
names of East and West Florida.
Another ti roil nil for Dtmiiiite.
In addition to the grounds of dispute
between France nnd Spain and the United
States and Spain, here shown, there was a
conflicting claim concerning the extent of
West Florida, born of tho contention be
tween French nnd Spanish discoverers and
settlers In tho sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries; and thero was also tho claim of
the French, by right of La Salle's descent
of the Mississippi In 16S2. to "all the coun
try drained by that river."
With reference to the Louisiana bound
ary there remained but ono point of differ
enco between the maps under considera
tion. Article 11 of the definite treaty of
peace' of 1783, between the United States
and Great Britain, after defining tho north
ern boundary to the Lake of the Woods,
continues as follows: " Thence
through the said lake to the most north
western point thereof and from thence on
a due west courso to the river Mississippi."
Such a line as that described being obvl
ouBly Impossible, the Mississippi river being
south, no. west, of tho Lake of the Woods,
the line drawn by tho conference was n
lino from the most northwestern point of
that lake to the nearest point on tho Mis
sissippi. This lino the conference regarded
as justified by rules of International law
and practice respecting vaguely described
boundaries In such topographical circum
stances. The Orexou Territory.
The Oregon territory was the next sub
ject to receive tho attention of the con
ference. The report says: "There seemed
to be nothing In tho history of that part of
our possessions to warrant mention of tho
claim of Spain rather than that of Great
Britain, and the final settlement of tho
question of sovereignty and boundaries by
the treaty of 1SI6, fixing the forty-ninth
parallel, "by nn amicable compromise," as
the northern boundary west of the Roc'.ty
mountains, seemed to bo a recognition by
the United Statei of the Importance, of the
British pretensions sufllclent to warrant
mention on the map. The treaty of ISIS
(the Florida cesslonl hnd nlreadv served as
a conclusive relinquishment by Spain of
any claim in this quarter. Therefore the
conference, considering these facts to-
getner wun tne historical narrative of dis
coveries and occupations on the northwest
coast of America by both Spanish and
British explorers and adventurers, and the
part played by traders, explorers, and
settlers from the United States within tho
territory known under the name of Oreeon
In the eighteenth century, determined to
place as a legend on the face of the map,
to describe briefly and with historical ac
curacy the area In question, the following
words: Oregon territory discovered and
settled; British claim extinguished, 1S16."
