(Special Telegram.) -Secretary Royse of tba Stat Banking board today began the distribution of the Sloth annual report of the building and loan association of Nebraska. The fig ure and recommendation are practically a forecasted In jTh Be several' months go. A summary shows that while the number of associations In existence baa de creased gradually since 1892, the number of barea In force aad the total assets have Increased to a marked extent. : In lf.2 there were eerenty-one associations, with 46,011 share In force and assets amount log to $3,0.,667.7. In 1901 thera were fifty-nine associations, with 119,185 shares tn fore and aeseta amounting to $4,814. 144. A comparison of tba condition of all as aoclatlona on Jnna 30 with tba condition a year previous shows tha following: ' De crease In assets, $617,388; increase in loans, 1508,091.76; decrease In real estate, $10. 151.09; increase In- cash, I88.37S.0S; In crease In other assets, 1 57,494 .60; Increasn In number of share In force, 14,360; de crease In shares apon which dues are de linquent. 1,805. . Mr. Roys says: "Considering that build ing and. loan associations are essentially koine-building an home-purchasing Insti tutions aad that practically all of the year's' tncreaaa In business went Into mortgage loans. It would -reasonably Indicate that . about 700 members bare begun paymenta en homes of their own during the year. The number of shares In force has In creased during the year from 105,636 to 113,985, and the number of shares on which due are delinquent ha decreased from 1.178 to 1.87S. "The Increaaed membership and tba gen eral growth of the entire business of the association are equally . gratifying and 8rov beyond question their popularity and value In furnishing a medium through Irblch the wage-earners and -those with Moderate mean may become owner of tome." i . , Bryan Wss't Disease Candidate.

SOUTH SIOUX CITY. Neb., Feb. 4. To the Editor of The Bee: I delight to read your article against the bill before con gress which has for Ita object the teasing of the unoccupied publlo landa to the great cattle corporation of the west. I am de cidedly opposed to that bill. I have spent a few year on the plains of Wyoming and Nebraska and during my sojourn In th semi-arid districts my observations gave me these conclusions: That the deadly conflict, which Is always visible between th rancher who owns- few cattle and a quarter section of land. and th large rancher who owna number less csttl and thousands of acre of land. la. caused by the greed of these corpora tlona on the western range. It also led me to become a firm believer tn Irrigation, because the largs rancher have all the lend with water rights taken up and they now think they can compel congress to deed them the rest. Now, why not Irrigate thla unoccupied land, and by ao doing bring happiness to countless num bers of human beings? It la an old aaylng that governments are Instituted among men to bring happiness to the greatest number. If this saying Is correct. Is It not right and proper that thla government should put a damper on these cattle corporation. who hay no aoulT Again, the corporation are only asking this government to gtv them a title to land which they have already seised. It I a notorious fact that there are cattle corporation In th semi-arid west which have thousands of acres of government land fenced, and If an Innocent settler attempt to settle on th land, which the lawa allow him to do, he Is met by an agent of these heartless corporattona and told to move on. It Is a moral duty of every nation to de- rend the weak against the strong and greedy. Will thla nation do ttaisT If so. It will kill this monstrous bill the minute it 1 brought before the house, Now, you may say I am opposed to cor porations, but this I all bosh, because I believe in protecting capital In all legiti mate waya, but I am opposed to the tactics they have employed'in th unoccupied land- gran bill.
