(From a Staff Correspondent )
LINCOLN. May 11. (Bpeclal.) The Re-
publican state committee has been called
i . h. i inj.n . . - tl . '
to meet at the Llndell hotel In Lincoln
on Tuesday, May 28, 19(4, at 8 o'clock p. m ,
for the purpose of fixing the time and place
of holding the next state convention, ap
portioning delegates and transacting gen
eral business. The state convention will
nominate a candidate for supreme judge
and two candidates for regents of tba state
university.
W'lnes Pile t'p.
R. H. Cone, who represents an eastern
coffee concern. In an attempt to show the
people of Lincoln that his coffee was the
best on the market has subjected himself
to fines sggregatlng 190,000. To do all this
Mr. Cons got up bright and earlM on sev
eral mornings and plastered most of the
poles around town with his advertisements.
The City Improvement society swooped
down on Mr. Cone and dragged hlrrt Into
court, where the police judge informed him
that by his own confession he was subject
to fines In the amount stated. Inasmuch
ss Mr. Cone agreed to hustle these signs
down about as faat as he hustled them up
and promised never to do It sgaln, he was
given until Wednesday to do It: If It Isn't
dons then Mr. Cone will either have to pay
up or sleep It out If the society elects to
fores the prosecution.
Police Board Nest.
The man who la to take the place of C. C.
Wright, shortly to resign from member
ship on the Omaha police board. Is 'not
worrying the governor very much at this
time. But as soon as the laor question is
off his hands this will come up and the
man will be named. Another question, that
probably would have received aentlon at
. . t,J- n ........ .... i. V, . . - ,
... .- .
members of the Omaha police ooard
in
using the members of. the police depart
ment during the recent Omaha municipal
election. . Before the strike the governor
wss milch concerned in the matter and In
a conversation he showed plainly that he
was much Interested in the reports of ths
actions of members of the board. It would
not bs surprising to many If, after ths
labor strike is settled, Governor Mickey
takes a band In the Omaha police board
affairs with a-view to making the police
department what It was intended to be In
stead of a political club.
Wants Bill Itemised.
Becausa hs failed to itemize his bill of
1300 for the execution of Gottlieb Nelgen
find. Warden Beemer has been requested
to do so by the Board of Public Lands and
Buildings, and the bill Is held up in the
meantime. The statement turned into ths
t. ikrd by Mr. Beemer is for $300 and It is
Itemised this way: .

This leaves of ths. total bill $196.20 and
nothing to indicate what It was used for,
who got it or anything about It. , Ths claim
was before, the board at .the. last masting
and it was sent back that ths amount could
be itemised. ""
Statistics of Schools.
Ths discussion of the erection of a new
normal school and the efforts being made
Vy various towns throughout the western
portion of ths stats to secure Its location,
recalls the fact that .Nebraska stands at
the head of the states in educational mat
ters In that it has ths lowest per cent of
illiteracy. These excerpts from the report
of the state superintendent may show a
reason for this. Ths 'report shows that
Nebraska had at ths end of the scholastic
year, July 12. 1902, 1.813 schools. Of thess
. 6,900 were frame; brick, 327; stons, 26; log,
121; sod, 436, and iron, 8. In 1901 there were
464 sod school houses In the state out of a
total of 6.773. Many of these houses were
well finished, nearly all floored and plas
tered and many finished around ths doors
nnd windows on the Inside. Ths iron school
ithnuse Is In Johnson county, about five
,nlles from Tecumseh, and it Is said to be
one of the best country school houses in
ths stats.
Male teachers last year were paid $636.
S29 94 and the females drew in salary $2,207.
301.83, which is not considered so bad. There
were employed 1,862 male teachers and 7.767
females. The pupils between 5 and 21 years
or, sgs numbered 375,340. The money avail
.! for school purposes was $6,320,227.56,
I nnd of this sum there remains on hand

Plenty of Water for Irrigation.
Secretary Dobson of the State Board of
Irrigation has Just returned from a trip to
ine irrigated portions of the state snd
brings with him the report that the pros
pect for irrigation this year is brighter
than sver before. He reports that con
slderabls new land has been placed In cul
tivation and the crops In good condition.
"The Irrigated country I passed through
seemed to be In the bsst of condition."
ssld Mr. Dobson this morning. "Ths flow
In ths 'streams is even above the normal
and the ditches are all carrying a good
supply or water. In fact I think that In
some leases too much water is allowed to
flow through the ditches. I saw alfalfa
fields that seemed to be. suffering from too
much water In spots
'This difficulty will be overcome when
the- measuring boxes provided for In a re
cent law are Installed In the ditches, since
this will enable the under secretaries in the
f.eld to determine just how much water
each person Is entitled to.
'There will be a good many applications
for permits for irrigation, works this yeir,"
continued Mr. Dobson. "Most of them,
however, will be for the construction ol
embankments across dry runs and canyons
in order to store flood water. Ths normal
flow of the streams has been fully appro
priated as a general rule and this ten-

deney to construct stirs r reservoirs I re
gard a bne of the mont hopeful develop
ments for the. welfare of the Irrigated sec
tion of the country, since It Is In that di
rection that we must expect added facilities
for the Irrigation of western land.
"Many of these runs In which water Is to
be Impounded are almost dry throughout
the year, but. dining the wet season they
run 'full. A large part of this water can
be saved and turned Into domestic uses. It
costs but little to construct a dam across
a canyon, a mere earihen embankment
serving the purpose, while In all section.'
of the Irrigated region available canyon:1
and runs may be found. All that Is nec
essary to make a satisfactory reservoir Is
the construction of an embankment higher
than the possible rise of the water and t
" " . ' " w" ,. L
the surface water to escape when It reache.t
the maximum height."
This Is ths plan that the United States
government Is carrying out on a large teals
in the North Platte -valley, and the same
method employed on a grand seals by the
English government In Egypt to bring
largo, areas under cultivation.
Memorial Day la Lincoln.
Memorial day will be appropriately ob
served in Lincoln by the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic and many
of the old soldiers will talk to ths pupils
of the schools on that day. Prom Farra

Less Llaht In May,
According to the reports of the state oil
Inspectors tiled during the last few years
less oil is used during the month of May
than any other month In ths year. This is
due to the fact that the days are longer,
the farmers are busier and the young man
and the young woman turn to moonlight
walks and shaddy nooks. Last year ths
receipts for May were not sufficient to pay
the expenses of the office.
Decrease In Appeals.
A very small number of cases were filed
in the supreme court during the month of
April, the number being 40 per cent lees
than for April of last year. Clerk Herd'
man surmises that this Is due to the fact
that district courts are in session about
this time and most of the lawyers are
busy In thess courts. Another reason ad
vanced Is that the new law requiring the
filing of papers within six months of the
time of appeal Instead of In one year as
neretoiore, has discouraged appeals for
delay. The cost of appeal would be too
great lor the small time gained.
