LINCOLN, x March 18. (Special.) A
Straggling few of the members of the dem
ocratic and populist state oeatral commit
tees arrived In Lincoln tonight and all pro
fess Ignorance as to the object of the fu
sion conference In thi city tomorrow.
From all Indication It 1 presumed the at
tendance will be light and thus far there
are no prospects of any sensational .pro
ceedings In either camp. Plan tor the
continuation of the fusion agreement will
be discussed 'and efforts will b mads by
the populists to have both committee agree
to have the nominating convention held
simultaneously in the same city, but there
will bo some opposition, from the demo
crat at least, to any attempt that may be
made to fix definitely the data for the meet
ings, unless the date so arranged tall later
than August 1.
None of the leaders who are In the city
tonight will vouchsafe any explanation of
tb action of the-chairman In calling their
committee to meet the day before the re
publicans. , They say. they were not con
sulted and Insist farther . that ( they know
nothing of tbe question to .be submitted

that he did not Intend to be In the confer
ence tomorrow.

The chairman of the committees may
have' a surprise to spring on us tomorrow,
but If so they certainly have given us no
Intimation of the fact," said a former of
Doer of the democratlo committee this aft
ernoon. "The first I knew of the meeting
was whsn I saw tb call In the newspapers.
I have no Inside Information, but 1 am
pretty confident that nothing will be don
further than to discuss the .fusion proposi
tion and perhaps reach aome kind of an
agreement a to where tb convention
hall be held. The democrat will not fa

It Is hardly likely that a data wlU he fixed

"I think the real object of the confer
ence Is to attempt to bring about an agree
ment that will result In a prolongation of
the fusion arrangement. There will un
doubtedly be soms friction when thi ques
tion 1 suggested and It may be that when
th committee get it settled they will not
car about tackling anything else."
W. J. Bryan returned this afternoon and
, will likely attend the democratlo meeting
tomorrow- Chairman Hall of the demo
cratic' committee and Do Franoe of the'
Bopullst committee were busy with th
early arrival .today aod both expressed
thelnselves to the reporter a being eon
fid ant that fusion would be continued. Mr.

mnhatlc. saying: "I regard fusion , as a
foregone ooaoluelon. Th fusion arrange

In which the receipt at the East Omaha

Dietrich Favor Partition Bill
Senator Dietrich, In discussing the bill to
divide Nebraska Into two Judicial districts
with the Platte river as the divisional line,
which Is now pending In the house, having
passed the senate, said
"The most potent argument favoring such
a division Is found In the figure taken from
the annual report of the United Bute at
torney general, wherein Is set forth the
comparative amount of business in the
United States court of Nebraska In contrast
with all other districts In the United States,
"This report shows that the district of
Nebraska .has almost twice as many cases
on ita docket as both district of Iowa; that
It ha more than all three district of Ala
bama; that it ha a much a the two dis
tricts of Arkansas; twice as much a both
district of Florida; twice a much a the
two district In Kentucky, In Louisiana, in
Missouri and in Virginia, respectively, and
more than all three districts of Tennessee.
Compared with Other Districts
Further, if the number of cases on the
docket In Nebraska, up to a recent date.
were divided In two, each district would
have more casee than the following dl
tricts: Alabama, middle; Alabama, south
ern; Alaska, Arizona, western Arkansas,
southern California, Georgia, Southern
Idaho, northern Iowa, southern Iowa, Kan
sas, eastern Kentucky, western Kentucky,
western Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, east
ern Missouri, western Missouri, Montana,
Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico,
North Carolina, South Dakota, eastern Ten
nessee, middle .Tennessee, western Tennes
see, Utah, Vermont, eastern Virginia' and
Wyoming.
Also the following districts exceed very
slightly the amount of one-half ot, the Ne
braska business: Southern Illinois, Indl
ana, Minnesota, southern Ohio, Oregon,
western Pennsylvania, northern Texas, east
ern Texas, western Texas, Washington and
eastern Wisconsin.'' In the face of these
figure, impartially computed, It would seem
no more than Just to divide Nebraska a
desired,
"The division a proposed in this bill ub
tantlally make the Platte river the.dl
viaing une. th railroad in Nebraska are
built across the state from east to west
practically on parallel line with aald river.
None of the railroad run north or south
except those along the eastern border ot
the state, where they run north and south
along the MJssourl river from Omaha, and
nortn ana sown Irom tne city of Lincoln.
There are no north and south line in any
other cltle In. the state,
Coaaldera' Division Eqaable,
"With the Platte river as the dividing
line, there will be In the South Platte
division in the neighborhood of 600,000 peo
pie and practically the same, or a few more
people In the North Platte dlvUlon. So
there can be no claim successfully estab
nsnea to tne eneci mat me aivislon as
proposed favors one district as against an
other
"Figures furnished by attorneys in both
districts unanimously agree that the amount
ot business required done by the present
court Is dally on the inrease. ', To quote
Mr. C. C. FlanBburg, a leading attorney
of Lincoln: 'Is not my client practically
denied the right to be heard In this court T
Judge Hunger (the present United Spates
district Judge) Is greatly overworked, and
th strenuous duties devolving on him are
too much for any on man. Pushed a he

"Some short time ago the circuit court
of appeal noting the glutted condition of
th Nebraska. United State docket, assigned
two Judges, Judge McPherson of. Iowa, and
Judge Carland of South Dakota, to aasls
Judge Munger as much as possible. And
then with all three Judges holding court
at one time, the docket was nowhere near
cleared. The law docket, of course, Is
given- more attention than the equity
docket, so that the latter 1 always sadly
tn arrears.
Matter t Transportation.
"Another strong point favoring this di
vision Is found in th matter of trannporta
tion witn regard to litigant. The state
of Nebraska la about 200 miles wide snd
400. miles long. At the present time per
sons with business In the United States
district court are obliged. If they live In
the extreme western part, to travel hun
dreds of miles In order to reach the tribunal
wherein they are to appear. Such travel
Involves heavy, and not to say, needless
expenses. With ths stste divided and with
places for - holding sessions of the two
courts properly distributed over the same
this question of expensive travel would
In a way be solved.
Waats Jaatlre Doae Lltlsjaata.
. .
-nnauy, it is tne object of all court
to determine controversies aa speedily as
possible and when they fall In this feature
a great injustice is done the litigants. Long
delays are a denial of Justice, and the
court that is obliged through lack of facll
Itlea to bs guilty of such delays. Is equally
guilty of g wrodg that sooner or later must
bring,' it Into contempt. ,
"Necessity demands that Nebraska be df-
rvided. This should be done in Justice to
the people ot that state and likewise In
accord with the letter and spirit ot the
federal constitution."

the governor to appoint fire and police com
missioners for Omaha will be heard by th
supreme court tomorrow morning. Th ease
was on call for thi afternoon, but because

Omaha Tax Mandamna.
John F. Mcintosh this afternoon filed a
motion for a modification of the original
writ of mandamus In the Omaha tax case, a
review of which has been printed in The
Bee. He would have the city council ot
Omaha. Instead of raising the values ot
corporation property to 40 per cent of their
rash value, do a set forth In the follow
ing:
That from the evidence before you you
determine the fair cash value as of the date
of such 1U02 assessment for taxation for the
city of Omaha of all the personal property
and franchises of each of said corporations
within said city or Omaha, and subject to

of valuation adopted and employed by the

board of review of said city In making the
apsestment or all taxable property within
said city for said 1SW2 taxes, and bring the
amount of the several assessments of the
personal property and franchisee of the
said several corporations within said city
and subject to taxation therein for said
19rd taxes to said standard, and certify
the respective amounts so ascertained to
the tax commissioner of said city as the
corrected ana equausea assessment.
Seeks to' Enforce Child Labor Law.
Deputy Labor Commissioner Watson Is
msklng persistent effort to enforce the
provisions of the child labor law. Today
he directed to each known employer of
child labor In the state a copy of th law
on the subject, together with a brief com
munication asking them not to shirk their
responsibility. The law require that' all
working children of or less than 14 yean
shall attend school at least twenty week
in each year. Mr. Watson says: "It 1
th duty of the state to provide education
for th humblest child within It territory
and I fervently hope that employers will
co-operate with the bureau to the end and
that the letter and the spirit of th law
may be duly respected."
Effort to Equalise Water Rates.
The Lincoln city council Is engaged In th
seemingly difficult task of equalizing water
rates. The. objection to the various propo
sition so far advanced is that they dls
criminate against the small consumer by
providing a lower rate for those who use
more than a tlpulated amount of water
each year. There is a general public de
mand for a fiat rate regardless of the
amount of water consumed and It Is likely
that an ordinance' making this kind of a
provision will soon be passed as a com
promise. The present rats-for city 1 20

There is no remedy in th world that
meets the conditions produced by la grippe
better than the remedy, Peruna. Peruna
strengthens as it renovates, soothes while
it stimulates, hesls as It expurgates. Pe
runa 1 ot a purgative or cathartic, or

mineral polBon. It reaches the source of
all diseases of the mucous membranes by
Its action on ' the vaso-motor system of

Every ' person' who hss had la grlpp

of Peruna. No one need expect perfect re

produced catarrhal inflammation ot the

is impossible until- these are restored to a
normal condition. Thi Peruna will do. A
great many remedies 'have been suggested
