I shall expect opposition from certain quarters, but be lieve the great majority of the legislature la friendly to this proposition. Since the Introduction of my bill yesterday prominent men outside of the legislature have come to me and promised their support." Party on Trial. "Putting the matter down upon the some what lower plane of party politics, this or some similar bill should be passed. The republicans of Nebraska are on trial this year. We have absolute control. If we are to acquit ourselves as the peopld who placed us in power want and .have a right to expect we must ahow that we mean what we say on this paramount issue of trusts." The Junkln bill has been referred to the committee on manufacture and commerce, composed of these members: Chairman, Ollem of Red Willow, merchant; Hogrefo of Richardson, merchant; Ferrar of Hall, superintendent of the Oxnard beet sugar factory; Dodga of Douglas, attorney and real estate man; Fitle of Douglas, Smith of Burt, merchant; Jones of Polk, farmer (fug.). It Is believed the majority of this com mittee Is friendly toward anti-trust legis lation. In the house .and. senate there are fifty-seven farmers, counting live stock men as such, and many 'merchants. Mr. Junkln counts on support from both these classes. The railroad lobby, which Is here with its usual quota, If not as demonstrative as in some other sessions, will be Joined and strengthened soon by special lobbyists-for the packers, Whose Interests In their rela tion to this sort of legislation will be iden tical with those of the railroads, and the talk Is that the combined forces will put up a hard fight to defeat the Junkln bill or any other of a similar character. Mr. Junkln and his friends, however, are look ing for this sort of thing. ROUTIXB PROCEEDINGS OF HOI SE Morning salon Completes All Busi ness Ready. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. Jjp.

LINCOLN, Jan. 20. (Special.) The senate resolved Itself Into a committee of the whole three times in less than twice as many minutes this morning In order to rec ommend the house expense and salary ap propriation bills for passage. When the senate first went Into committee of the whole to consider bills on general file It found only one bill ready for discussion. This was quickly disposed of and then Oood of Nemaha moved a dlseuspron of the sal ary apportionment bill. This the commit tee refused to do after some discussion started by Olffen of Dawson because the bill had not been printed. The committee dissolved and Just then the printed bills were brought In. Oood again moved the senate resolve Itself into a committee of the whole to discuss this bin and the perform ance was repeated with each of the other two house bills, the printed copies being received Just as the committee dissolved. Some discussion resulted when Senate File No. S, a bill providing that a trans cript of all the records should be made In an appeal to the supreme court only In certain instances, came up for passage. The bill will materially reduce the fees of dlRtrlct clerks.

"I see by an editorial In The Bee the in sinuation is made that, although I am fathering the charter revision bill, It is really the work of ex-Mayor Broatch," said Representative Andersen this morn ing. "I wish to say that I never have con sulted with Mr. Broatch regarding my charter amendments nor has he directly or Indirectly dictated a single word of my bill. I nave spent considerable ttmo upon this measure and made the changes after consulting citizens ot Omaha who had made'a special study of the charter and were qualified to suggest proper rem edies. "It is a little difficult to ascertain Just what some of our constituents want," added Mr. Andersen, after he had read the criticisms of certain men who didn't like It because he Introduced his charter revi sion bill without, as he said, first advising with them. "Last week two members of the Douglas delegation said through The Bee that they wire waiting for instructions from their constituents before taking ac tion toward terminal taxation legislation, charter revision and other local matters. Immediately these men, Senator Saunders and Representative Clarke, were taken to task by certain persons in Omaha, who said these legislators wire elected upon specific platforms and had no business waiting to hear from their constituency before proceeding with these matters. Now I have taken the initiative as these men In Omaha advocuted and what is the result? Some of those engaged in con sidering the subject of charter revision have criticised me for acting too hastily, saying I should first have consulted with them betore submitting my bill. "Now, tiio fact Is I did not act hastily or preclpituteiy. Nor did I proceed without consulting OiiiuIih men w ho hud made char ter revision ii subject of lung study. I think it was pretty generally known that I was intending to introduce u charter revision bill and it la u great surprise to mo to hear that my action in submitting the bill at this time lias astonished any of my constituents." Other members of the Douglas county delegation sympathize with Mr. Andersen in tills loaticr, taking the same view which he has' expressed. They nra ngrecd that It would have been an unwiso thing to have delayed tl.e introduction of a charter re vision bill, hut that the time to put it in was at Ihe earliest )WMblo moment, so that everybody Interested in this proposed legis lation might have ample time to present their views and that the delegation might secure for the bill a thorough consideration at Ihe hands of the legislature. Experience has tuught In matters of legislation that it is never possible to get Just exactly th right measure at f!r or one that will satisfy everybody, end especially has this been the case with reference to Omaha matters. Nor is it generally possible to get people outside the legislature who are Interested to come in and offi r suggestions and freely discuss topics of this character until they are reduced to a bill and that bill Is thrown Into the current of ordinary lcg:sliitive affairs. For these reasons the Douglas county members decided th'it the Interests of all concerned cculd be best subserved by getting the subject of charter revlblou before the legislature at ones. They are anxious that their friends snd constituents come down and take an active hunt In the further torrnn!ln of such a measure us will meet with general ap proval. The DoukIu county I. glkl.itoi s haa ex pressed the Oilniou that the people at Omaha who have espoused the caue of legislation are extremely deliberate in tak ing action and that If the pace set by them Is to be followed by their representa tives they would never be able to pass the necessary laws at the present session, which prr.ml.-es to be a short one under the business-like leadership of the speaker. DOING OF THE LEGISLATOR Number of Rills of General Import ance Introduced. tFrom a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 2". (Special. )-S. F. TS. Introduced by Thome of Douglas county this morning, applying to notes end negotiable Instruments. Is the same Mil, changed In two Instances, as that Intro duced by Nelson of Dong!n two years ago. It was defeated of passage at that time. The bill as It now stands has been in dorsed by the American Bar association and the Stat? Bar "association. It Is in ef fect In twenty-one tatcs und the object of the Mil. as explained by Its Introducer. Is to got Nebraska In line with these other stt"s on n uniform law. There were two strong objections to the bill prepared by Nelson two years ski which have been eliminated. The first mas that It provided that attorney fprs could he tacked on n j rorr.lssot y rote. The second objection was to section S7. which provided that where the maker of a note specified that It l c raid at a bank it should b" nld by the rlsnk when due, providing the maker had sufficient money on deposit to pay It. Tliis the bill provided the bank had the right to do without notice to the maker of the note. The banks objected seriously to this arrangement snd that was one reason the bill failed of Vassage two years ago. The bill codifies the law on bills and notes as determined by adjudication by all the courts In the land and definitely settles questions over which' there has been much litigation. The bill Is Indorsed by the law yers, who will work for lis passage. The people of Elmwood, on the Missouri Pacific railroad, want the depot at that place kept open at night and their griev ance will be taken before the legislature. A petition signed by fifty or more citizens of the village, addressed to the State Board of Transportation, brought to Lincoln this morning, contains' the dates and the num ber of passengers "who had to stand out In the cold on many occasions because the depot was not open' after night. Inasmuoh as the State Board of Transportation has long since been defunct the matter will be presented to the legislature. . Senator Wall of Sherman county has In preparation a bill that will. If It becomes a law, be welcomed by many farmers of the state as well as others Interested In the opening up of new roads. The proposed bill grants the right to appeal to the dis trict court from the decision of a county board in the establishment, vacating or al tering of any road, to any petitioner or elector living within five miles of the road. At present the law does not grant the right of appeal, leaving the persons affected no redress from the decision of a county board except that he may recover damages. It Is understood there Is quite a demand for the enactment of such a law, especially In the rough counties of the state. At pres ent a county board, should It be so dis posed, has the right to shut a farmer out from all publlo roads. Senator Thomas of Douglas county Intro duced his voting machine bill this morning and the Douglas delegation, It is under stood, will urge its passage. The bill among other things provides for a "voting machine commission," to be composed of the governor, the secretary of state and the state auditor, who shall have charge of the matter. These have the right to employ or appoint three deputies to have supervision of the machine. Unless the house takes advnntar nt it. constitutional right and Introduces more appropriation bills the senate will take unto itself rhur' eThr " -thi. i T ... --.. v. uiui miis ijuTeriy of Saunders county introduced a bill ap propriating .saimj to construct additional fish ponds, constructing a fish car house and making general Imnrovem.nt. nn k grounds and buildings at the fisheries.

A number of the old soldiers who have heard of the move have regis tered objections to placing a minister at the head of such an institution and likely a merry war will yet follow before the commandant Is finally named. The committee on public lands and build ings of the house spent yesterday after noon inspecting the state penitentiary.

"In the years Postum Food Coffee has been on the market it has made many thousands ot staunch friends but appar ently none better than the Clerk of Courts at Toledo, British Honduras, who has sent a list of names of people in Central and South America ''who now use Postum in place of coffee, explaining In detail their cases. Ha says: "Have much pleasure In writing you this letter for the good Postum has Uune myself and friends in this District. Tnt attached list of persons to, whom I huto recommended Postum will, 1 venture to say, give you great satisfaction. I have given the names and addresses so anyone can verify my statement by writing to them" (full particulars with names and addresses will bo sent by mail to anyone.) "On the list the persons marked from 1 to 11 were confirmed t.a drinkers und when 1 spoke to them about drinking Postum they laughed at 'the Idea of giving up tea. But 1 insisted on their giving Post um a trial before condemning it and went so far as to give some of them a parkagt. They all use Pustum now and nothing else. "From No. 12 to VJ were coffee liends, my wife Included, and they all also thought It absurd to try to replace coffee by uny other drink but after some per suasion 1 got them to try it and now thty ail use Postum. "No. 14, 15 iiid 18 suffered from nervous prostration and sleeplessness when they drank coffee.

Some of these people did not like Tostum at first because they did not know how to make it, but I Invited them to my house nnd gave them Postum, making it sccordlng to directions on the package, and they all found It delicious. "Now, I will tell you how I came In con tact with Poatuiu. Mr. Wells, living ut Toledo District, mentioned Postum and gave me a package for trial.

V., President West Side ' Study Club, writes: "I want to give credit where It is due. I was a great sufferer from catarrh of the nose and although I tried many remedies, the only one that gave me more thna tem porary relief was Peruna. "I was very miserable, my nostrils were obstructed, my sense of smell affected, in y. breath very offensive, and the dropping from the hark ol my nose often caused Hansen. I took Pernna for four months and the dis ease was completely effaced. "My physician tells me that there Is no doubt that I am permanently cured. I con cur with him In the matter, for It Is over a year since I quit taking Peruna and 1 have not had a single symptom of the recurrence of the disease." No woman suffering from catarrh can be beautiful. The effect of this ravaging disease pro duces red, watery eyes, swollen and twisted noses, dry, cracked lips, and a host of ananusBussasa. other deformities.

R. 17, appropriating $300,000 from the national government to the university fund contains a provision which, in the Judg ment of some members, is not altogether right. For Instance, it provides that the money It appropriates shall be used by the university to pay salaries and? meet ex penses of a dozen different kinds, enumer ated In the bill, whereas Davis of Buffalo, ono of the financiers of the house and a member of the finance, ways and means committee of this session and the last one, thinks It ought to specify the exact propor tion to be usod for salaries. "I am heartily In favor of paying our university Instructors adequate salaries, for In no other way can we expect to keep the right kind of Instructors," said Mr. Davis, "and I also favor giving the regents sufficient lattttude to advance salaries, but It strikes me this bill goes a little too far by placing no limit upon tho proportion of this $300,000 that may be used for salaries. They might use $190,000 that way so far as the bill Is concerned." Mr. Davis pointed out that the biennial report from the university estimates that for the ensuing blennlum Just $&0,0.) will be required for salaries, Now, he asks, what amount of this $200,000 Is going to be used In that direction? Mr. Davis, when the bill was before the committee of the whole, moved to have it reported to the finance, ways and means committee In order that it might be considered In con nection with ihe appropriation bills, bit the committee on university and normal schools, to which It had been referred, re ported It back favorably without a single change, and the house In committee of the whole recommended It for passage. Mr. Davis did not get a rcond to his motion and therefore had no opportunity of. ex plaining himself on the floor of the house. He was not opposed to the appropriation, as he feared many thought, for he was aware that this money was for the uni versity and could be used for no other pur pose, but his Idea was simply to have It provided Just what part of the money should go for salaries and what part for other purposes. Speaker Rouse referred the bill to the committee on university and normal schools because he considered it merely u clerical matter and not one of finances, which the iiuui.ee, ways and mean committee should tuiibidur. "We will have a sixty-duy session," said Speaker House toUuy when someone tusked him how long or how tshort tne. term would be. The speaker Is responsible for the houc conducting its business with order and dispatch and ho propobes that when the session coiuta to the time for adjournment everything In tho house shall be up and done, und that without tho aid of the tra ditional alltlne committee.

Mrs. Cora Whitney, 100 S. Division St., Buffalo, N.

My eyes were red, the lids nrre thick, my vision wns blurred nt times, and my eyes watered. They felt ns though there were sand In them nil the time, and the suffering; greatly Inconvenienced me. "Upon the recommendation of a friend who had been greatly benefited by Teruna I gave the medicine a thorough trial, with the result that I was perfectly cured and my eyes are now as strong as ever." Dr. Hartman's widely known remedy, Peruna, Is the most efficient specific for catarrh ever produced by the medical pro fession. There is probably not a man or woman, boy or girl In the United States who has not heard of Peruna. The great majority of them have used Peruna at some time or other.

Colonel Kerens told me It hud been his ambition for twenty years to go to the I'nlted States senate. I replied that I had nothing to do with his ambition. That the question waa now be vond me and was one for the considera tion and determination of the republican party. I feel today that I am virtually United States senator from Missouri. I was nomi nated by tho republican caucus and the nomination was made unanimous. The ac tion was ratified by the two branches of the general assembly In separate session and In lolnt session lacking but two votes. I consider that further action of the gen eral assembly is mere formality. Asked If he had anything to say, R. C.

Mrs. Kntherlne Mnnr, K!5 California St., Lob Angeles, Cal., writes: "About three months ago I contracted a severe cold while away on a visit, t did not pay much attention to it until It had gone through my entire system. I coughed every few minutes nnd would have several severe spells of coughing at night until I was completely exhausted. "I used piasters, took Turkish lint lis, nnd tried ronh remedies until I sickened of It all. l'rrnna proved my one relief. An occasional dose Intrti when the eonahlns; spell ram on afforded Immediate relief and within elitht dnya I wns well. "I shall not be without Peruna In my home, for I tlnd It a valuable household remedy." Peruna produces clean mucous mem branes, the basis of facial symmetry und a clear, healthy complexion. Tho women have not been slow to dis cover the fact that a course of reruna does more toward preserving and restoring youthful beauty thun all other devices known to science. While It is true that Peruna cures catarrh of a chronic nature, yet It is advisable to tako Peruna as a preventive and not wait until It has fastened Itself in somo part of the system. Peruna acts quickly and beneficially upon all the Influmed mucous membranes lining the various organs of tho body. Thus It cures catarrh wherever located. AMUSEMENT.
