PLUMBING INSPECTION BOARD EXPENSIVE
Iamf aster Coaaty Delegation Comes
la for CrUlelam for raising a
Law to Increase Local
(From Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April 17. (Special.) Tba
Lancaster delegation ia being censured to
a considerable extent by many cltitens of
Lincoln because It secured the passage of
a bill through the late legislature empower
ing the mayor to appoint a plumbing in
pectlon board, the members of which are
to be paid by the taxpayers of the city.
Those who are objecting to the board say
that Lincoln Is not yet ready to aupport
such a body and that the town does not
Justify lta appointment. It was talked on
the streets yesterday that Mayor Adams
would refuse to appoint the board. The
mayor may refuse and he may not refuse.
Teaterday he said that ha had given the
matter no thought and In fact he had not
Ten read the bill through.
A member of the Lancaster county dele
gation, who doea not live In Lincoln, waa
taken to taak this morning by a cltlien for
allowing the bill to become a law. He ex
plained that the Lincoln member of the
delegation said the town wanted It and
therefore, as no one had objected, he had
supported the bill. If the mayor doea ap
point the board the council can prevent It
working by refusing to appropriate the
Salaries of the members, and aome of the
eltlaens at least will use their Influence
with the council to get It to refuse the
appropriation.
The bill waa Introduced In the legisla
ture at the request of members of the
plumbers' union. It Is said to be the same
law that applies to the city of Omaha. It
provides for the appointment of ths health
officer, the plumbing Inspector, a Journey
man plumber and a master plumber as the
Inspection board. The board 4s required to
examine plumbers and grant them licenses
nd Inspect plumbing. The beard la au
fchorlied to appoint aa many asalstants as
. Cay be required to Inspect the plumbing
of the city. The salary of the health officer
Is increased under the bill from $840 to
L,600; the inspector receives $1,600, -each
assistant appointed $1,200 and each mem
ber of the board receives $5 per day for
each day the board ia in session, not to ex
ceed $200..

Mr. A. C. Holmes, of Oneonta, N. T.,
an employe of the railroad ahops at that
place. Is well known In labor circles and
his own experience, recently related, de
serves the attention of every working
man who has lost time and money on ac
count of sickness. Mr. Holmes said:
"Two years ago I had a aevere attack of
grip which left me in a bad condition. I
was ao weak that I frequently had to lay
ff for two or three days at a time during
a period of four or five montha. I could
not very well afford to do thla but there
waa no help for It I simply was not able
to work. I lost flesh, got nervous, had
wful headaches and felt worn out all the
time.

made by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale

to try them. A few boxes helped me and
I think I took ten altogether. They drove

tem and made me feel like a different man.

about Dr. William' Pink Pills and what
they did for me."
After an attack of the grip there la al
ways left behind some troublesome effects.
Often these are worse than the disease
itself and seem to baffle all efforts of phy
sicians. Health la shattered the blood be
comes poor, the flesh falls away, the suf
ferer grow nervous and irritable, and even
light exertion causes shortness of breath.
These are dangeroua symptoms and Indi

sumption. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills tor
Pale People, however, will not only quick
ly restore the health after an attack of
the grip, and expel the lingering germs
but, working upon the blood, will render
the system proof against the disease. In
hundreds of cases Just as remarkable as
that of Mr. Holmes, It haa been shown that
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have aurely ac
complished this result.
At all drug stores or sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, 60 cents a box; six boxes

was In Lincoln today and la very anxious
that tho normal school board grant hia cl'tr
the new achool. He waa gratified to learn
that the $10,000 provision had been atrlcken
from the bill. This will be the mean of
putting many of the smaller towns in the
race for the achool. In the meantime It
will be July 9 before the law becomea
effective and then the fact that the achool
la to be erected will be advertised for
twenty day before the lite 1 chosen.
Probably It will be the latter part of July
or the flrat of August before the school 1

In the meantime State Superintendent

Relief Maaey for Swedes,
Chancey Warner, a member of the late
legislature from Lancaster county, was at
the capital today from the rural regions
aroqnd Waverly to look after that $2,000
appropriation made for the starving people
of Sweden, Norway and Finland. Warner
introduced the bill. He waa met here by
Hon. B. M. Stenberg of Omaha, tha vice
conaul for Norway and Sweden, and to

Coavlct Labor Debate.
The question of convict labor waa too
much for the Board of Public Lands and
Buildings todsy, and after hearing more
arguments on both sides, and after consid
ering the evidence t3 aome extent, the
board adjourned, to meet again tomorrow
afternoon to make a final settlement
From the action of the board today it
begins to look aa though Warden Davis
will lose out on his contract and the Lee
Broom and Duster company will get all the
convlcta it can use for the broom snd
duster business, though tomorrow a differ
ent front may be taken by some members
of the board. Member Mortensen moved
that Warden Beemer be instructed to al
low Mr. Davia a sufficient number of con
vlcts to conduct his button business. But
there waa no second to the motion. Mr.
Mortensen explained that Mr. Davis would
only require about ten or twelve men, but
the board preferred to wait until tomorrow
and then make a final report of the matter.
Mortensen feels sure that Mr. Davis will
be granted at least a few of the convicts.
He Is opposed to granting a monopoly of
the convict labor to any one firm or com
pany and he believes that ths board will
think the same way by tomorrow.

pany have such a person In view who may
not only be secured to take charge of the
manufacture, but will also Interest himself
In tba enterprise. Although the affaire of
the company have been operated by Mr.
Houts. who baa had no practical expert

will take advantage of the period of idle
ness to make come minor Improvement In

About 160 plates were laid In tbe largest
hall In the town, and there were but few
absentees. State Superintendent Fowler
and County Superintendents Smith of Daw
son, Dobson of Frontier and Nell of Lin
coln were Invited guests.
A program was arranged consisting of
toasts and music The latter was rendered
by local talent and would not have been
unacceptable to the dainty, listening ears
of a city audience. The toasts were: "The
Publlo Schools of Farnam," which was
ably responded to by J. B. Kitchen, presi
dent of the school board, who, after warmly
weloomlng the guests of the evening, gave
a brief history of the school from its in
ception In 1886 and showing Its progress
up to date; "Dawson County In 1903" was
responded to by Superintendent Claude
Smith, who gave the details and dimen
sions of the first school district In 1873
and the unique manner in which the first
teacher was secured, up to the present
time, with Its ninety districts, 138 teachers,
at an annual expenditure of $58,000.
"Where Does Nebraska Stand?" was Su
perintendent Fowler's toast, and he re
sponded by saying, with some pride, that It
stands at the top, with 99 3-8 per cent of
literate children between the ages of 10
and 14. He continued his address for an
hour on tbe subject of education, abound
ing In statistical facts, profound advice
sometimes humorous, always Instructive
and deeply entertaining, closing with well
timed advice tor the consolidation of the
smaller adjacent districts In order to se
cure the greatest profit tor the least ex
penditure.
Owing to the absence of County Super
intendents Dobson and Nell the fourth and
fifth toasts were omitted, and the sixth
and last, "The Parent and the School,"
was eloquently responded to by Dr. Reeves,
a resident physician. Then followed the
banquet, as dainty and choice as the woman
patronesses of the school who prepared 1L
