PENDER SOMEWHAT EXCITED
Before Smallpox Scare Is Over Court
May Get rasa.
PENDER, Neb., May (Special.) The
smallpox scare In Pender is creating no
little comment and strife among those
affected. The Board of Health and village
board are held down under a threat of the
State Board of Health. Many are not
quarantined who hare the same affliction
as those few who are quarantined. There
Is not a case in town where people have
been confined to beds longer than twenty
four hours. Elderly people, like the chil
dren, are not Inconvenienced by the disease
and are going about their work dally.
State Inspector Spalding was called here
the second time and visited nearly every
case In town. Out of ten or twelve cases
he pronounced smallpox in three families,
others he stated was chicken pox and In
some cases would say only that he thought
there was no danger.
A threatening letter by Dr. Sward to
Dr. Reichenberg, physician of the Board
of Health, was received yesterday, wherein
he threatened prosecution unless the stte
board's Instructions were carried out.
There Is good reasons for contention over
this scare, as It ts now generally -believed
there la not a case of smallpox In Pender.
Further Investigation wfll be had.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, May 1 (Special.) Information
that may be reliable has reached tha Btate
Railway commission that the Burlington
and Northwestern railroads Intend to fix
their Interstate rates to conform to the
Nebraska t-cent rates Insofar as Interstste
business relates to Nebraska. Should the
report be true It Is the belief of tha com
mission that tha Union Pacific will follow
suit and Nebraska people will be able to
go over these roads to any place at not
more than 1 cents a mile.
H. Vance Lane of the Nebraska Tele
phone company was down from Omaha this
afternoon to see the members of the com
mission about what his company was ex
pected to do under the new law and to let
the commlMilon know he was resdy to con
form to any rules the commission may pre
scribe under the law. Tha telephone com
pany will have to cut off Its free subscrip
tions to all except charitable Institutions
and to state, county and city governments.
It was reported some time ago that the
commission would have the telephone com
panies cut out tha charitable Institutions,
but tha commission will do nothing of the
kind. All charitable institutions may get
their telephones free If they can.
The commission has sent out blanks to
station agents all over the state upon which
monthly reports are to be made.
Lean Gets tha Job.
George E. Lean of St. Paul was appointed
bank examiner today. The appointment is
from July 1 to January 1 only, for the
board Is not quite sure a fifth examiner Is
needed and that Is why the appointment Is
for the short time. So far only 177 banks
have been examined and the first quarter
of the year Is gone, and there will be at
least 700 examinations to be made during
the twelve months.
Health Records at Capital.
The records of the State Board of
Health relating to vital statistics are to
be kept at the state house In tha future,
and the removal from Beatrice will take
place Just as soon as a room can be set
apart for the use of the board. Tha state
health Inspector Is to have charge of the
office, and under a ruling of the board
he will be compelled to remain In Lin
coln. At this time Dr. Spalding of Omaha
holds the Inspector Job, but he Is to lose
out, as the board of secretaries has rec
ommended three other" parties, from whom
the board proper is to select tha one it
wants. Those recommended are: Dr. Wil
son, a senator from Pawnee county; Dr.
Wllmeth of Lincoln and Dr. Towne . of
Omaha. The last named formerly held the
Job at the same time his brother-in-law,
Dr. Somers. was a member of the board of
secretaries, and Mrl. Towne was a mem
ber of the visiting board, appointed by the
governor. The position pays $1,800 a year,
and during the last year frequently tha
inspector was not called out of town for a
month at a time. The board this morning
allowed some routine bills.
Secretary's Fees Pile I'p.
April was a good month for tha secre
tary of state In the way of finances, he
having been paid $4,616.86 for corporation
filings and other fees. A year ago tha
fees received during April amounted to
$960. Tha largest tee paid was by the In
dependent Telephone company of Omaha,
which contributed $2,009 for filing its art!

Jones Gets Federal Job.
Will O. Jones, tha editor of tha State
Journal, who said he was In the reform
business for reform only, ts to be a federal
office holder, and very shortly Senator Bur
kett will have paid another political debt.
Mr. Burkett has sent to the president the
name of the editor to be appointed
an examiner to tha naval academy at An
napolis, and inasmuch as the president
asked tha senior senator to recommend a
Nebraskan for tha Job, Mr. Jones will get
It. The position pays 16 cents a mile for
miles traveled In attending to business con
nected with the Job and $6 a day for time
actually employed. Four other examiners
are to bo appointed from different parts of
tha country. The honor which Mr. Jones
has snatched for himself may create a
vacancy on the editorial stool at tha Jour
nal office because, during tha campaign
his paper printed and reprinted that
none of Its employes could hold a Job on
the sheet and hold a political Job or be au
aspirant for a political Job at one and tha
same time. With Mr. Jones taken care of
Senator Burkett has looked after all of his
reform campaign boosters, with tha excep
tion of Ross Hammond and ha has pros
pects. Capital City Briefs.
Election la coming on very quietly so
far, even though the republicans have had
Senator Burkett make a talk for the ticket,
and the democrats are talking of getting
Bryan back to say something. The news
papers are calling the opposition candi
dates bad names, the News and Journal
charging Mayor Brown with being In favor
of the saloons, and the Star changing tha
same thing against the republican candi
date, Hutton. Registration is next Satur
day. The fact that tha grand Jury is
still in session may account for the ab
sence of much enthusiasm, as some of
tha hard workers are taking vacations, so
t Is said.
Attorney General Thompson is busy work
ing up a brief in the lumber suit to be
filed with tha supreme court. The attorney
general Is objecting to the recommenda
tion of 'Referee Post. The ease has been
set for hearing at the last session In
