COUNTY ATTORNEY CALLED FOR OPINION
Fees of Clerk at tha District Coart
Oae of the Matters Which the
Board is I -able to Reach
Decision.
The Board of County Supervisors put In
a busy day yesterday, much of the time
being devoted to a discussion of the sal
aries of the several county officers for the
ensuing year. But little progress In this
direction, however, waa made and this mat
ter wilt be the first order of business when
the board reconvenes this morning.
Felix Bets, the new chairman of the
board, apparently is In favor of a retrench
ment policy, at least so far as the salaries
of the county officers Is concerned. Chair
man Sets questioned the right of the clerk
of the district court to receive In addition
to tne salary provided ry statute ssjo a
year out of the probate fees. County At
torney He was called Into conference,
but the question was not decided when
the board adjourned for the day. The
board, however, decided that the clerk's
two deputies In Council Bluffs and the one
In Avoca should each receive 11,000 a year
as before.
The board also decided that County Re
corder Lathrop should receive $900 a year
as before. No allowance, however, was
made Recorder Balrd for clerical hire, as
County Attorney Hess explained that the
law provided that the recorder could em
ploy such clerical hire as he deemed neces
sary and then present his bill to tha board,
which should allow reasonable compensa
tion. The salary of th cleric of the district
court la placed at $2,200 by statute and
last year he was allowed, as had been the
custom for many years, to retain $300 out
of the probate fees collected by him. He
waa also allowed $40 a month for extra
clerk hire.
The salary of the county superintendent
of schools was fixed at $1,600 a year, with
an allowance of $600 for clerk hire.
Pay of Assessors.
The compensation of assessors was fixed
as follows:

NEBRASKA SHERIFF GET" HIS MAX
Asks No Asslstaare aad Rashes
Prisoner Across River.
Without soliciting the assistance of any
member of the local police or sheriff's
forces Sheriff Sammon of Buffalo county,
Nebraska, arrested In. this city yesterday
morning a prisoner who had broken Jail at
Kearney several days ago. The man cap
tured was George Mathews, who was ar
rested two weeks sgo on the charge of
selling liquor without a license and had
been, lodged In Jail awaiting trial.
Mathews was walking along Broadway
shortly before 11 o'clock and had reached
the corner of Pearl street when the Ne
braska sheriff stepped up behind him. "Oh,
George, said Sheriff Sammon, and as
Mathews turned round to see who was ad
dressing him the sheriff continued: "I've
been looking for you for . quite a time,
George. Just step Into this cigar store
with me." Mathews, seeing that Sheriff
Sammon had drawn a revolver, raised no
objections and stepped Into the cigar store,
where the Nebraska officer quickly placed
a pair of handcuffs on him. Mathews, evi
dently realizing that the game was up, did
not . demur, and Sheriff Sammon and hjs
captive left the cigar store almost before
those who were In the place realised what
had happened. The officer and his prisoner
promptly boarded, a car for Omaha and
were across the river before the local au
thorities knew anything of the Incident.
The action of the Nebraska officer In
drawing his revolver on Mathews attracted
quite a crowd around the cigar store and
gave rise to the rumor that a holdup had
been perpetrated in broad daylight on
Broadway. The police did not learn the
true facts of the case until after Sheriff
Sammon had his man safely across the
border In Nebraska and locked up In the
city Jail In Omaha, awaiting a train to take
him back to Kearney.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Jan. 9-fSpeclal.)-New
members te the legislature are all talking
a short session and fast work. This Is snld
to be universally characteristic of new
members. The chances arc the session will
last the usual twelve or thirteen weeks.
There Is talk everywhere among the new
house members as they reach the Savery
lobby of railroad legislation. The 2-cent
fare proposition Is first. In their thoughts.
"I believe It Is all right for everyone to
pay fare, and If they all do the railroads
will make more money at 2 cents than
they do now at 8," said Representative
C. N. Flugum of Winnebago county, one
of the new members. - Anderson of Hamil
ton, Blnckmore of Worth and a score of
other new members from the northern part
of the state voiced .the same sentiment.
There is also talk of the reciprocal de
murrage bill.' Justin R. Doran, a house
member at the last session who was In
terested In the bill, said today that such
a bill would be Introduced. He was not
sure that It would be Introduced by him
self, but the chances are he will be the
author of the bill at this session. Powers
of Floyd, who Is not lrt this session, was
the author of the bill at the last session.
Doran also expresses himself In favor of
again Introducing the bill to manufacture
twine at 'he state penitentiary at Fort
Madison.
There is every reason to believe that the
first few Important committees of the
house will have the following chairmen:
Ways and means. Tetcr; Judiciary, Weeks;
appropriations, Jones of Montgomery; In
surance, Conn; railroads, Meredith or
Welden; elections, Meredith of Dafrah;
banks, Lowery; agriculture. Lister. It Is
understood that there Is objection on the
part of the railroads to Meredith of Cass
being chairman of the railroads' commit
tee as being too radical a man for that
committee. They wouU, like to have Weeks
of Guthrie head the committee. The work
of making up the comnlfttees Is under way
now, and though tke!('wlll not be given
out till Tuesday of. -jWednesday In the
house and Thursds.y4f -Friday lrt the sen
ate, next week, theyj. vl!l be practically

SIDNEY, Ia., Jan. 9. (Special.) There
were six changes in county officials this
week, the new officers being, George Cole
man, auditor; Dr. T. C. Harris, sheriff;
W. H. Norcutt, county attorney; Dr. E.
R Harris, coroner; Charles Forney, sur
veyor; B. A. Swisher, member of the board.
There was no change In the other offices.
The death of Sheriff Kent last Sunday,
made necessary the appointment of a
sheriff to fill the vacancy. Unusual Inter
est was manifested In the matter. Mr.
Kent had been elected by the democrats,
who claimed the office on that account, but
a majority of the board, which has the
appointive power, are republicans. Thert
were about forty candidates, equally di
vided between the two parties. The board
solved the problem by appointing Dr. T.
C. Harris, the democratic coroner, who,
under the Iowa law. In certain con
tingencies becomes the acting sheriff. Dr.
E. E. Harris, the defeated republican can
didate for coroner, was then appointed to
that office to fill the Vacancy there, caused
by the other Harris being made sheriff.
W. J. Yowrll was appointed mayor of Sid
ney, to fill tho vacancy caused by the
resignation of W. II. Norcutt, the new
county attorney.
Tentative Acreement for Vote oa SsiTioe
Measure Friday.
VOTE ON RAILWAY IMPL0YES' BILL TODAY
Mr. IjiKnllette Says Hallroaa Official
Are t rainer Mrs to Make Protests
Aaalast Any Actlea by
Congress.
WASHINGTON, Jan. . After a gen
eral discussion a tentative understanding
was reached In the senate today Justifying
the expectation that a vote on the general
service pension bill will be taken next
Friday. The measure received no vital
criticism, but many commendations. Sen
ator McCumber spoke, at length In sup
port of the measure.
The remainder of the day was devoted
to the discussion of a bill limiting the
hours of railway employes, which measure
Is to be voted on under agreement tomor
row. The Bnownsvllle matter was postponed
at the suggestion of Senator Foraker, who
gave as the reason that Senator Tillman,
who Is Indisposed, desired to address the
senate on the subject.
Vote on Railroad Bill Today.
In view of the fact that the senate has
agreed to vote at 3 o'clock tomorrow on
the bill limiting the hours of service of
railway employes, considerable time was
I devoted today to that measure. Senator
, LaFollette gave notice that he would
nvive to take up the bill Immediately
after routine business tomorrow.
The discussion was opened by Mr. La
Follette, who declared the measure had re
ceived the endorsement of the national
.organizations of all classes of railway em
ployes and that the opposition now being
manifested was from employes who had
been coerced by the railroads to present
protests.
The discussion was participated In by
Senators Bacon, Dplliver, Patterson, Hey
burn, Galllnger and Beverldge.
In support of his contention that the
railroads had been very busy since the
last session in developing opposition to the
bill, Mr. LaFpllette read a set of resolu
tions condemning tho bill, presented to a
lodge of railway employes, the name of
which ho withheld, by E. T. Lamb, di
vision superintendent of the Southern rail
way. The lodge applied for Information
on the subject to 11. R. Fulter, legislative
representative of the railway employes' na
tional organization, and had not endorsed
these resolutions.
A long record of accidents was read by
Mr. LaFollette, showing In all the train
men Involved had been on duty from sev
enteen to forty-three hours, continuously.
When the forty-three hour record was
given Senator Beverldge wanted to know
the road on which the accident had occur
red. He said he was shocked, as he be
lieved every other senator was, that any
road would keep a man on duty forty-three
hours.
Senator LaFollette said, for obvious rea
sons he would not give the name of the
road, and explained that It developed that
In many cases the men themselves were
responsible for the long hours.
Service Pension Bill Debated.
Receiving the right of way for his ser
vice pension bill In the senate today, Mr.
McCamber said that there were few per
sons who will not concede thut at some
period after the close of the civil war a
general servloe pension bill would be en
acted. The amoui of pensions being paid
to the young veterans of the Spanish war,
Mr. McCumber sold, waa entirely out of
proportion.
Mr. McCumber estimated that the added
cost because of the Increase In his bill
would not exceed $6,000,000 annually,' al
though he gave the estimate of the commis
sioner of pensions as $10,714,000.
Mr. McCumber secured unanimous con
sent to take the bill up Friday.
Senator Warren suggested some steps be
taken to get the present bill on its passage
"so that we can do something more than
make speeches."
Saying he was not at war with the pres
ent legislation, Senator Galllnger main
tained that we as a nation have been ex
tremely generous to the men who served
In the army. In all our wars, he said,
4,400,000 men had been enlisted, and of these
9 per cent had served In the civil war and
1 per cent In all other wars. A total of
t3.3W.SW.000 had been paid In pensions, of
which 95 per cent had gone to civil war
veterans. Mr. Galllnger advocated a flat
rate of $12 per month to all veterans of the
civil war.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9. By a vole of

mittee of the whole today having the army
appropriation bill under consideration re
fused to strike out an item of $1,000,000 for
the purpose of paying the expenses of
regiments, battalions, squadrons and bat
teries of the organized militia to participate
in such brigade or division encampments
as may be established for the Held instruc
tion of the troops of the regular army.
Representative Hay of Virginia said that
so far as the maneuvers held In Virginia
were concerned they were a farce. He con
tended that the encampment was of little
good to the National Guard.
Mr. Young of Michigan thought It was
the utmost folly to try to have an organ
ized militia and not give them the best
possible opportunity to learn the art of
war.
Representative Hull of Iowa, In charge
of the bill, said that the committee knew
that he did not arprove the large maneu
vers, because he did not believe 'the Na
tional Guard received any benefit.
