LINCOLN, Sept. 23. (Special Telegram.)
Governor Savage was notified at 5:30 this
morning of the destruction ot tho Hospital
for tho Insnnu nt Norfolk. At 9 o'clock
all members of tho Board ot l'ubllo Lnnds
nnd Buildings then in tho city woru sum
moned together to nrrnngo for nccommo
datlng tho 300 homeless patients. It wns
docided to bring 200 ot them to
tho stnto hospltnl near this city
nnd tn send tho others to tho hospltnl
for lncurnblo Insano at Hastings. Dr. Tenl,
superintendent of tho hospital nt Norfolk.
Is oxpected horo tomorrow, nnd tho making
of further plans will be delayed until he
arrives. Land Commissioner Polluter and
Secrctnry of Stnto Marsh, nccompnnlcd by
Chief Clork Clancy of tho governor's offlco,
went to Norfolk this nttcrnoon nnd will ro
turn tomorrow on a special train with Lin
coln's quota of tho rintlents.
The construction of a now hospltnl build
Ing nt tho Lincoln nsylum mnkes It pos
slble to core for tho Increased number
without great Inconventonco. Dr. Tenl and
tho major portion ot his assistants will
probably Join tho force of tho Lincoln
asylum and remain In chargo of the pa
tients from Norfolk. From tho Indefinite
nnd unofficial Information received hero it
Is estimated that the actunl dnmngo can
not be moro than $100,000. Tho main
building nnd Its three wings wero con
structed at' a total cost of $149,000. Tho
first and central portion ot it was built
In 1SS5.
It Is reported that the building nnd tho
threo wings nro completely destroyed, but
so fnr ns known nono of tho othor buildings
wero Injured. Tho Board of Public Lands
and Buildings hnd recently contracted for
tho erection ot a stnndplpo at tho Norfolk
hospital for flro protection, and It was
learned this morning that tho foundation
for tho pipe had Just been completed.
Tho destruction of tho nsylum has cnusod
many to wonder whether a special session
of tho legislature will bo called or not
Many think tho legislature Bhould bo con
vened to repair tho dnmngo by tho logts
latlon method. Governor Savngo thinks
differently and nt noon today Issued the
following statemont:
"I consider an extra session of the leg
Islnturo n useless expetiB.i to tho taxpayer.
A short tlmo ago It was urged that n spe
cial meeting of tho lawmakers must bo
called ln order to redlstrlct tho state. Such
a proceeding had my disapproval from tho
start. Then I received lotters urging mo
to have apecln'. legislation enncted agnlnst
anarchists. This In turn Is foolish be
causo congress will soon pass somo genornl
measure taking caro of the lawless classes
of people. In tho present emergency I do
not bellevo that tho situation calls for any
thing llko a special Fcsslon. The patients
are all cared tor nnd tha lawmakers could
afford no Immediate relief. I deem an ex
tra meeting Inadvisable."
It Is now certain that Lincoln business
men will endeavor to havo tho asylum ro-
built at this place. Thoy will work to havo
tno Lincoln Institution enlargod. To this
plan Govornor Savngo Is Inclined to look
with favor. 1U said: "In regard to tho
nsylum matter it seems to mo that tho
building could bo erected nt less expenso
It tho Lincoln asylum was enlarged. Ono
superintendent could overseo everything
Thero would simply havo to bo an Increaso
In tho '.lumber ot attendants nnd there
would bo a great saving tn tho purchasing
of supplies."
Dr, J, L. Greene, superintendent of tho
Lincoln insane hospital, this afternoon left
for Norfolk to nsalst In tho caro ot tho
patients. Superintendent Kcarn ot tho
Hastings asylum will meet the party in
chargo of the patients at Fremont tomorrow
nnd will take 100 of them to the Hastings
hospital.

excitement among thu devout church people
of Lincoln. Ho maintains that while prayers
may have an Inspiration to keep men work
Inir. mtiv l!ir.pi,H. ihrt lntnlnif find the nnwer
and tho earnestness of human work, thoy
cannot quicken nor Increase thn power or
earnestness of God, nor of nature s forces.
Rev. Mr. Mnrsh Is one ot tho foremost
ministers ot Lincoln and his sermons re
cently havo attracted widespread attention.
Tho clorgymnn first referred to the
prayers for rain, snylng: "I havo little
faith In the scientific theories of our towns
man who thinks ho ran produce rain by
bombarding thn licnvenn with gunpowder,
but I bellev' he Is mori ln line with tho
cause nnd conditions ot rain-producing thnn
they who wmi,d bombard the heavens with
prayers, hoping to bring moisture to the
ground Experimenting with tho physical
forces Of thn enrth Is more llkelv to reneh
the result than experimenting with the
spiritual mysteries of tho human soul nnd
its psyenic environment.
Attention wns next called to tho players
offered for tho recovery of tho president,
from which the preacher drew the follow
ing thOUuhtB: "Illlt tll()lli:h at flrnt. these
prayers seemed to bo nnswered In the hope
ful symptoms of the tmtlcnt. the luiiin una
maidenly turned Into doubt nnd Hnnlly Into
mourning ut the fatal result which the
prayers of a nntlon could not seem to turn.
To say that tho prayerB nro answered in
nnotner way and that the outcome will be
bett'r than It would havo been had thn
president lived Is to Imply that If we had
not prayed tho president would havo lived."
Continuing, He v. Mr. Marsh ald: "Then
thole Is the prayer wo mako so often for
others. The calling on God to help othero,
as If wo could Induce Him to be moro
kind nnd good and abundant ln Ills love
toward this, thnt or the other person. What
Is the USO of all this nrnvlllir whnn wn Um.u-
that tho Infinite wisdom nnd love
do not need any Information or beseeching
trom us? if ii could bo changed by our
beseeching Ho would not be worthv nf nor

Treating tho subject ln n coner.il -n.
tho minister ndmltted thnt nrnver ns the

county court ln tho days when George
Shields was Judgo and who was later a
democratic member of tho city council, but
who for ten yenrs hns been one nf the lend
ing populist workers of Omaha, has written
the following letter to Chairman Ostrom
of the republican county committee ural
consents to its publication:
OMAHA, Neb.. Sept. 2-J, IPnl - Henry Os
trom, fcisq., Chairman Republican i.ounty
Central Committee. My Dear Sir: As the
populist party, the party Hint I have af
filiated with for the past ten years, has
been swallowed up by the democratic pnrty,
I feel like it man without :i party. As you
will remember, I lolt the democratic party
ten years ngr, nnd since which time 1 have
been engaged In building up the populist
party. I was at its baptismal fount. 1
walked nt lt hearse. May Its ashes rent In
slumber. When Its epitaph Is written it
will read: "Populist party, born July 4,
1VM, nt Omaha, Neb., died nt Lllioilii, Neb.,
September 17, 1901, ngeil II years and H
months. Clause of death, overdose of de
mocracy." My party, therefore, being something of
the past and not deslrlnt; to return to my
first love (the democratic part)), I must
cast my lot with one of the parties ot na
tional repute I therefore elect to cast my
lot with the republican party.
1 do this without the aid or consent of
tiny other parly on enrth nnd without ex
pectation of reward. 1 tint, therefore, nt
your command in render any service In
an honorable capacity that will redound tn
tho si.cce.ss of the republican part, county,
state nnd national. Yours respectfully.

knowledgo of tho upscssior. The suppres
sion or concealment ot personal property
Is tho mas glaring Injustice of our system
of taxation. Thero Is something wrong
about the morals of conic of our people lu
this particular which ought to he righted,
t firmly bellevo that there sho.ild be ,i
provision In the law which would furnish
n motive to tell the truth to the iiHfeixii .
If the law provided that upon the subse
quent discovery of property that had not
been listed for taxation Hie owner should
torielt n considerable part of It to Ha
state, with u proper allowance to the pet
son through whose diligence the illnco.-rv
is made, I think It would have a ir
inendotiH Inllueuce upon the cnnselctires
of men whoso property has hitherto been
Invisible There may bo better plans and
the best one must be adopted, but thai
some modification, Home change. Is r -quired
In order to do Justice to the man
whose wealth Is lu real estate 1 have m.
doubt whatsoever.
There hns been much dlscuslnii with
regaid to the taxation of railtoad prop
erty, lor reasons which me altou-i Ih.-i
clear to any observing person the value of
rallrond property Is ascertained by the
executive loiinelf Instead of by the town,
ship osessors That railroad property
shuuld be iiHKessed upon the same bn'.ls
that Is adopted for other property Is
obvious that It caini'jt be disputed, ami so
far ns I know it never hns been disputed
I know of no other species of property o
!lt for comparison In determining tho as
sessed value of tho railroads aa the real
propel ty of the state that Is in Ha, tho
fn.rms Hf. the country and the lots of the
cities. The tnllroad companies cannot com
plain If they are compelled to pay taxes
upon n valuation .vhlch puts them upon nn
equpllty with the owners of lands and lots
i1 a.c'"'dldate for governor and If
elected will be n member of tho execut've
council. If yon believe that I have In
telligence enoiiKli to nscennln what the
valuo of railroad property Is. and courage
ono sh to declare it. I m entitled to .ot.r
co il detico and your support, but If yo.i
think that I am lacking In Intelligence,
integrity or courage I am unwortliv to
