Feb. i. t&pecial.j Between Jovernor Mirkty and Land Commissioner Katon there Is something doing. At an ex ecutive session of the Board of Educational Lands and Fundi thli morning the two be tune so eiclted over a proposition that Mr. La ton left the meeting In a huff, after hotly exclaiming to the governor: "Well, you had better come over and run mjr office yourself." The proposition was whether a record should be made when, the bosrd had de cided that person was entitled to a deed to school lands. Heretofore It has been customary for the land commissioner to make out the deed and take It to the gov ernor to sign. The latter has always signed without looking up the record, of course leaving that entirely In the bands of the land commissioner. This morning the governor suggested that It would be a good Idea for the board to meet and de cide who were entitled to deeds and make a record of the board's action. Then the deeds would be made out and properly signed. This, of course, would add much to the work In the land commissioner's office. which Is Just now being performed by a force not at all too large, and Eaton ob jected to the new duties. It was when the governor Insisted KB ton suggest ed that the governor had better run the land com inlssloner's office. The board probably will decide to have the record made of the purchaser's right to the deed, so In case a mistake should be made In the deed the board could fall back on Its record. Good Story, bat Tint Trie. An Investigation made by Secretary Piper of the State Board of Charities and Corree tions at Newman Grove has completely dis credited a yellow, though Interesting, story published here and sent east. The story was to the effect that Mrs. Nels Anderson, the wife of a convict In the state peniten tiary, was not permitted to secure a deed to the homestead upon which she had filed because the husband was a convict In the penitentiary- It went on to say that Mrs. Anderson had been thrown out In the cold. cold world, with ten children and no money with which to support them. A party In New York saw the article and sent it to Governor Mickey. The governor at onco appointed Mr. Piper to Investigate and re port to him the true facts In the case. Mr. Piper has Just returned and his report will shortly be filed with the governor. Mr. Piper found that Mrs. Anderson had filed on the homestead, but Instead of living on It she had resided on the homestead of a brother cf Anderson's, which adjoins the Anderson homestead. H. S. Clark filed contest against Mrs. Anderson, getting deed to the property, alleging that she had not resided on It. A day for the hearing was set and Mrs. Anderson was notified to be present. She did not attend the hearing and In view of the showing made by Clark the entry made by Mrs. Anderson was can celled. Mr. Piper located Mrs. Anderson at New. man Orore, where ' she Is living on sn eighty-acre farm with her parents, and he volunteered his assistance and the help of the governor to see that she get a square deal. Mrs. Anderson, so Mr. Piper said, told him that she could cot make a living on . the homestead and neither would she re. move to It as It would not raise a crop and was only fit for grazing. She was sat Isfied. Mr. Plner said, and Instead of being in straightened circumstances was doing very well and had a good home. The part of the story that a woman whose husband was a convict could not file nn a homestead was also false, said Mr. Piper, as the law allows a woman deserted by her husband or divorced or who Is d pendent noon herself to take up a home stead. Mrs. Andersop filed as a deserted wife. Anderson was sentenced to the penlten t'sry in 19fl8 for eighteen years. At thst time he was IT years old. Work for Prlaters. The State Printing board this mornin authorlred the secretary to advertise for bids for printing 1,000 copies each of vol WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU Few People Realize the Importance ol Good Dicvstion I ntil it is Lost. Many people suffer from dyspepsia and do not know it- They feel- mean, out of sons, peevish, do not Bleep well, do not have a good, keen appetite, do not hav the Inclination and energy for physical or mental work they once had. but at th same time do not feel any particular pain or distress In the stomach. Yet all this Is the result of poor digestion, au insidious form of Dyspepsia which can only be cured by a remedy socially intended to cure It and make the digestive organs act naturally and properly digest the food eaten. Bitters, after-dinner pills and nerve tonics will never help the trouble; they don't reach It. The new medical discovery dees. It Is called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets and Is a specific for dyspepsia and indigestion. It cures because It thoroughly digests all wholesome food taken Into the stomach, whether the stomach is In good working order or not. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, by digesting the food instead of making the wornout stomach do all the work, gives it a much needed rest, and a cure of dyspepsia Is the natural result. When you are nervous, run down and ekepless. don't make the common mistake of supposing your nervous system needs ireitment and fill your stomach with pow- rf il nerve tonics, which make you feel,r!uh: r'ss A H.ghfst scoring ten ears of farther than ever. between Patrick Burns and Frank Llphardt, 1 Your nerves are sll right, but they sre ' P-ire divided.

Aadltar Is Sasptrloas. It is evident that Douglas county farmers ais not In danger from gray wolves. it evident, also, that bougUs county is producing more gray wolves this year than ny other county in the state. This is shown by the number of affidavits Died with the state auditor showing that gray wolves had been killed In Douglas county and asking for the bounty. While Deputy Cook could not tell without looking up the records Just how many claims had bveu filed, be said It was more than any other county. Inasmuch as It Is generally sup posed that a gray wolf -will not stay around where there are people. Auditor Searie will ask the men claiming the bounty to here after bring the body of Hhe wolf to Lin coln. Bays Idaho Boads. The State Board of Educational Lands and Funds this morning authorized State Treasurer Mortensen to buy tlttO.ioO worth of Idaho state bonds. The bonds will run twenty years and will pay the state 34 per cent Interest for the first five years and afterwards 4 per cent. The board will meet February 13, at which time the bonds will be delivered and the matter will be passed en finally. The board has already bought Idaho bonds to the amount of $..'10.- 000 this year, and during the month the state treasurer will have 250,000 more money to Invest. This money will ac cumulate by reason of the payment of school land leases and taxes sent In by the county treasurers. Theater Merhaalea larorporate.

In a letter to Senator Mlilard, In tesponse to the latter'g request. Hon. John M. Rajran of this city, former commissioner of th supreme court, urges numerous and vigor ous objections to the Furkett bill for the creation of a "South Platte federal dis trict." Mr. Ragan, as president of the Adams County Bar association. Is taking a leading part In the opposition to the proposed division. It was at his suggestion the.t the movement was started for th ! public condemnation of the bill in this county at a mass meeting two weeks ago. Mr. Ragan a few days ago received a letter from Senator Millard asking him to outline the objections entertained by the lawyers here to the Furkett bill. "These objections are not confined to the lawyers." says Mr. Ragan in his reply, "but are the objections of the business men, professional men, bankers and voters west of a line drawn north and south through the state, along the west line of Clay county." After asserting that two districts are unnecessary' and vouchsafing the opinion that after the government land fencing cases are disposed of the present court would have no difficulty in transacting all of the business In Its Jurisdiction. Mr. Ragan continues: All for Lincoln's Beneflt. "We sre not such a lot of Reubens In this state, though living a hundred and fifty miles west of the Missouri river, but that we understand the purpose of Burk ett's bill, viz.: to give some one a life position as Judge, another a position as marshal, still another a position as clerk, and the Judge to be appointed from Lin coln and do all of the business of the southern district In Lincoln. This would be good for Lincoln's hotelkeepers. If this state Is divided now according to the Burkett bill it will require the western part of the state fifty years to change It, whereas If the district remains as It Is we people In the western part of the state may some dsy have a man In the United States senate who will pay some attention to our rights and conveniences and so ar range the federal districts that a litigant shall not have to travel 4"0 miles and back and spend $500 to obtain $150 worth of Justice." Mr. Ragan next declares that the griev ance bf litigants and witnesses In the western part of the stats will not be remedied by the passage of the measure, for the reason that under its terms they would have to travel practically as far with the court located in Lincoln as they do to the court In Omaha. He asserts that more than 60 per cent of the business In the Nebraska federal district originates west of the west line of Clay county. Continuing he says: Prejadlcc Agalast Federal Coarts. "There Is in this state a prejudice and a distrust against the federal courts and Judges, and while you and I know that these are unfounded and that the federal Judges are honest, able and upright men. and If there Is any place In the state where one can obtain exact Justice according to law it Is In the federal courts, yet the mass of the people do not understand this and the fact that all cases In the federal courts have to be tried either In Omaha or Lincoln, is responsible for much of this prejudice. A litigant has the right, and should have the opportunity of having his case tried in or somewhere near his domicile. It is mon strous In this age of the world that a man living in Trenton or Kimball and sued In the federal court should be compelled to travel to Omaha or Lincoln to make his de fense. To divide Nebraska Into two fed eral districts, with the Platte liver for the dividing line, is to make the two districts 400 miles in length and 100 mileswlde. What statesman can Justify such a pieoe of po-Utico-mandering ?" If a more equitable division for the west ern part of the state cannot be secured Mr. Ragan suggests, provided relief for the court Is necessary, that another Judge, marshal and clerk be appointed for the present district, leaving the opportunity open for the west to be heard on the sub ject in the future. "We are not enemies of Mr. Burkett nor Senator Millard." adds Mr. Ragan. "but we hate this Burkett bill as the devil hates holy water. We love Omaha very much, we love Lincoln some, and we have an abiding and enthusiastic loyalty and love for that part of Nebraska In which are to be found the golden corn and wheat fields, the al fulfa fields, the cattle ranches and sheep ranches, and In which will shortly be found, ,f not a lor- ! "d n- "',lc minority of the almighty voter. In thl matter Senator Burkett Is handicapped by the wishes of the locality where he re sides. But you. Senator Millard, are not ''-mpelled to a support of this Burkett measure by the wishes of your fellow citi zens of Omaiia. You are free to give this matter a calm, dispassionate and careful inquiry." Saea for Possession of Office. KEARNEY, Neb. Feb. 2. (Special Tele gram.) County Attorney Squires, prosecu ting In Lis own person and at the relation of Victor B. Wheelock, began quo war ranto proceedings In the district court to oust Thomas G. Spencer from the office of register of deeds. Notwithstanding the election of the relator to said office Spencer refused to surrender the office to the re lutor and still claims to be register of deeds. At the time Mr. Soencer's term of office expired It was announced that a motion for a rehearing had been fll.-d in the surreme court in the case wherein the court had declared unconstitutional the law passed by the last legislature whereby the terms of registers of deeds then In ! office were extended one year.

Mr. Taylor has not he-n able to fix his lof-s yet. The parkag'S of silks a ere taken to a back room, where the thieves had constructed a daik lantern from an empty pasteboard box. There they seem to have been carefully examined. All wrappers, pij rs or other marks were re moved and left behind. At least two fine overcoats were tck"n and probably other clothing. The two overcoats known to have been taken are the only articles likely to furnish a clu to the thieves. They are a peculiar make, known as "manu factured buffalo." It is believed they went toward Fairmont from this place, as a party who lives at the Intersection of Te cumseh Cvenue with the section line, or main road to Fairmont, was awakened be tween 4 and i o'clock by hearing a wagon, driven raridly from the east on the sec tion line road, snd at the same time two men came funning down Tecumseh avenue from toward town, met the wagon at the Intersection, climbed aboard and hurriedly drove west. tRGF.D BT FITRER TO TEL Toon a- filrl Charged with Many Thefts Arrested and Repents.
