1 DAlRYMtN ARE TROUBLED Canltst Hsadling of Cream Injures tb Qislitt of Nebraska Eutut MEANS AN IMMENSE SUM TO PRODUCERS 'A. r. F,s perse n of Clay lonlr Takes Oath as Ob of the (oamliiltifri f the iprfm Caart Met calfe Talks to llooalera. iFmm a Staff Correspondent. LINCOLN. Jan. ..-(Special. Nebraska dairymen are sidlv wrought up over what they term the careless handling of crwm by shippers and rramprlM alike, and at the romlng state convention this question la to tic taken up and debated. Tbe assertion Is made that the farmer do not take the rare of their separators that they should and that the creameries have Med and aletted In the wastefulness by fixing no standard for the product to which they insist upon adherence. The result haa been a general lowering of the grade of but ter. , Secretary Tiassett Is of the opinion that ten of thousands of dollar are annually Jit to dairymen by reason of these facts. Soma of the creameries hnve begun to grade cream, and this will prove a treat help In making; the farmer more careful. Their principal fault lie In their neglect to keep theflr separators free from bacteria and the result Is that the product deteriorates rapidly. "One of tbe burning questions In connec. tlon with the dairy Industry In Nebraska at this time," says Secretary passett. "Is tha securing of a better quality of band-aepnra tor cream. In the commercial market there ara three grades of butter, known as ejitraa,' firsts' and 'seconds.' 'When ex tra ara worth S cents, firsts sell at about SI oents and seconds at about 1? cents per pound. . "At tha present time tha creamery com panies la Nebraska are not able to make a pound ot butter grading as extras In the markets. It Is reported that of the output of our creameries about per cent will Trade firsts of a not very good quality, and the remaining AO per cent sells at tha price of seconds. The whole trouble lies In tha poor quality of hand separator cream furnished, and as a natural ennsequenon those who sell cream receive a much leas price than would be the ease if tha cream furnished was of good JtlalttT. "This question of securing a better qual ity f cream Is of Importance to tha people f tha stats generally. There are In use rn tha state 3CUW0 band separators, an aver age; of on on every four farms.

Members of the Insanity commission are engaged In a dispute with the county com missioners over the payment to them of fees for hearing dipsomaniac cases. Tbe county attorney ruled that the commis sioners had no warrant In law for allowing these fees, and tha claims, amounting to $100, were rejected. C. C. Marley, a member of the commis sion, today tiled sn appeal to the district court, where the question Is to bs settled. The commissioners say they cannot be re quired to act without tha payment of fees, and the chances are that If the county at torney Is upheld in his contention that the law la defective In not providing for wit nesses' and commissioners' fees, the law will simply be a dead letter, as the officer will not work for nothing-.

FREMONT, Nh Jan. &. i Special. Lte yesterday afternoon a grip was found on Brldgs Island not far from the alts of Calls-han's grading camp, which may throw some light on the Saunders county murder. It was covered with snow and had evidently been lying there for several days. It contained a quantity of under clothing and some shirts and collars, which evidently belonged to two parties. On the 1 collars were laundry marks and on soma the nsme of Much McDonald and on other that of A. F. Adams. There were also some handkerchiefs and a number of toilet articles, a B'ble that had been read, a numbi-r of letters and a diary. The entries In the diary begin last spring In New Tork City, where the two men evidently lived. From them It appears thst the two left New Tork at the same time and came west fngether, stopping occasionally to work a few weeks to get money to travel on and evidently paving their fare on trains. There are cards and addresses of a number of employment arencies from Buffalo to Omaha. The men had been working for Callaghan. Judging from the clothing both were laboring men and a pair of long stockings such as are worn by linemen Indicates that one of them may have worked at that trade. The New Tork City police were notified and an attempt will be made to find out something of McDonald and Adam at their former home. Callaghan's grading outfit broke camp Saturday afternoon and the men were paid off and left. Hundreds who viewed the remains of the murdered man at Bader's undertaking rooms and a good many people are positive that they saw him In town on different days last week in company with another party. Since the failure of Charles Pierce and wife to Iden tify the body as that of Thad Browning the grip appears to furnish the best clue that the officers have hd- Mrs. Pierce In forms Sheriff Bauman that she has received a telegram that Browning Is living and Is at Kansas City, Mo. Saunders county peo ple are taking an increasing Interest In trying to solve the mystery. KEW IDEA OF CITY EIXCTIOSS Hastings Man Raises Point Sot Before Considered. HASTINGS, Neb., Jan. o.-fSpecial.V-The municipal campaign has started off with a discussion as to whether or not an elec tion, can be legally held this year. The question la of more than local Importance for the reason that Its solution will prob ably have a bearing on city elections in several other towns. The charter under which the Hastings government Is operating applies alike to Grand Island, Fremont, Kearney, Nebraska City, Plattsmouth and one or two other towns. Under the nrocedure. which h been followed for many years, elections for cny omciais would be held next spring In Hastings, Nebraska City and Plattsmouth. The section of the charter which is now being subjected to scrutiny nrnvMeri e the election of a mayor, a clerk, a treasure and a police Judge at "the first annual election, ana biennially thereafter. Tha City did not hold a general election the year the law became effective, the person who were serving at that time h.i allowed to hold over. Only the police judge was elected. The practice ha been fol lowed ever since, bringing the election or administrative officers one year and the election of police Judge In another. The situation Is said to be the same In Platts mouth and Nebraska Cltv. while i the other towns which come under the charter, ine elections are held in strict accordance with the provision. . .v Attorneys who have Investlcateit the matter are of the opinion that the .Hni.i.. tratlve officers and the police Judge should oe eieciea at the same time and that a the term of the Judge does not nir n.n next year there can be no election next spring ror other officials. The police Judge Is a constitutional officer anri ii.. decisions of the supreme court the term cannot be changed. It Is argued that the only thing left to do la to ma It - the ....... - of the mayor and other administrative uiucers coniorm to that of the Judge. SAXDBCRR PRICK CA19ES DEATH Mra.
