BEDE AN APOSTLE OF PEACE
J. Adam by Mere I iterance Arbl
trated Bitter War Anoai
Fellawv Editors.
J. Adum Bede, representative In congress
from the Eighth Minnesota district, who
addressed the Men's Modern Movemt
cluh at First Methodist church Sunday
night aud spoke at the Missouri river
transportation banquet last night. Is an
apostle of peace whose record might turn
green with envy the eminent men who
meet periodically at The Hague. For Mr.
Hede has brought result out of his
preaching.
"Jadam" Hede, as he- is called In Minne
sota by his fellow editors, used to edit the
Pine Unot at his home In Pine City on the
way from St. Paul to Duluth. One time
several of the big and little papers of the
state became Involved In one of the most
bitter of newspaper controversies. Finally
the war simmered down between two papers
in tho same city and' for a while life In
that lew n was a burden to the people.
These editors did all but kill each other;
they exhausted the English vocabulary In
their. attempts to apply the vilest of print
able pithets. Or: day. Just as the war
was at Its worst, the Pine Knot came off
the press. "Jadam" Bede had written a
column editorial for the special benelit of
these two belligerents; It bristled with
humor and concluded with this simple In
junction, "Brethren, let us love one an
other." From that day to this every newspaper
controversy in the North Star state brings
nto prii.t that shibboleth of peace, once
-pokon by the humorlst-editor-politiclan.
REFERENDUM ON SCHOOLS
Soeh Poller Considered by Hoard
Owing; to Preent Condition of
Money Market.
The Board of Education, which met in
special senBlon last night to canvass the
vote at the recent election, has a problem
before It which may result In a referendum
being submitted to the peorle next fall. If
not sooner. The Question relate in ii.
! manner of the expenditure of the proceeds
j of tho bonds. A majority of the members
aesire to delay the sale of the bonds until
such time as the condition of the money
market is easier than tit present, and this
course probably will be adopted, but on the
other phaso of the question the board la
not a unit.
This question Is as to the location of
new school houses, more particularly addi
tional high school room. Some of the mem
bers think Omaha is scattered over too
large territory to maintain one central
high school and these members hope to In
troduce the idea of high schools In. three
or more psrts of town. Other members,
who hold to the Idea of a central high
school for the entlro city, have suggested
that nothing be done In the rnatfer until
the people have had an opportunity to
pass upon the question.
Borne of the champions of the separate
high school system have gone so fur aa to
Indicate where, In their opinion, ti e addi
tional schools should be built, one in tho
northwestern and another in the south
western part of town.

(From A Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Nov. 11. -(Special Telegram.)
Patrons of the toll lines of the Nebraska
Telephone company use the lines so often
at night to secure the advantage of the
j cheaper rates that the company has ap-
plied to the railroad commission for per
mission to shorten the night hours and
: give the day staff something to do. The
condition was set forth to the board to
; day by Vice-President Vance Lane and
Attorney W. W. Morsman for the com
pany. They said that so many business
men waited with their long distance calls
until night that the work of tha night
. force was rapidly Increasing and business
I was becoming so congested that It was
j impossible to handle it to the best advan-
tage. The proposition was made to reduce
' K - , M 1 I . , ...
wu uuiuucr ui nuurB wnen niaui isiei tic
in effect
At present reduced charges are made on
telephone connections between the hours
of 6 p. m. and t a. m. In Nebraska. There
j are no night rates for points In Iowa, Mis
souri and Kansas.
Tha Railroad commission has received a
complaint from a number of business firms
that the telephone company Is making an
unreasonable charge for locating their
traveling representatives on the road. This
matter was taken up with the officials of
the company today. They explain that It
was not uncommon for a wholesale firm
to submit a list of ten or a dozen or even
as many as thirty towns to the telephone
company at which its representatives might
be ound. The operators would then be
obliged to call up the different places in
turn until yie person was located. It Is
frequently necessary to use a messenger
i and tho custom has prevailed of charging
19 cents for each town called whether any
one Is found there or not. The commission
discussed the service with the telephone
officials, and while not making any ruling,
was Inclined to believe the charge Just.
Official figures are now obtainable In the
Sixth and Ninth Judicial districts, as fol-.

Sixth District G. H. Thomas (fus.). 6.418;

term Judge Welch received 8,260 votes, hav

Brief la Oil Rata Case.
Railroads of the state today filed a brief
with the State Railway commission in
reply to the application for a reduction in
011 rates made by the Marshall Oil com
pany, the National Petroleum association
and the National Refining company. By
way of argument. It Is claimed that If the
oil rates were cut down In Nebraska tho
result would be to discriminate aga'nst
other commodities on which Yates will re
main the same. Then tho brief asserts that
the effect of the reduction asked, or any
reduction, would not be for the benefit of
consumers, but only for "the benefit of
particular shippers.
One of the complaints of the oil com
panies is that under the present rates they
cannot compete with the Standard Oil corn-pan;-.

I'tlca Man Throws Llsrhted Match
Into Powder Can.
UTICA, Ne.b., Nov. 11. (Special Tele
gram.) Jerry Barber, who lives in the
south part of town, tried to see how quick
a can of powder would explode. He
lighted a match and threw it Into the can,
which contains about six tableapoonsful
of powder. The can was thrown Into the
air and struck him In the face, badly
burning It and very nearly putting out both
of his eyes. He was taken to a doctor, who
dressed his wounds, but who could do
nothing for his eyes. He was taken to
Seward to an oculist, who will look after
his eyes. It Js very doubtful whether they
can be saved.

Rare Suicide A Kansas City newspaper
bemoans evidences' of race suicide in the
Missouri executive mansion, where the
show-me theory does not appear to have
become popular. Governor Folk has no
children and several of his predecessors
were minus such Incumbrances. Here In
Nebraska It Is different. Governor Sheldon
has four little ones to put their feet under
or upon his tabid nnd Governor Mickey,
Just ahead of him, had seven. There have
been occasional unproductive spots in Ne
braska gubernatorial history, but never
anything alarming nor worthy of com

Mell's Chicken Industry Meil Schmeld,
who on most occasions can handle trouble
with as little worry as ony one of them,
has branched Into a new Industry, 1. e.,
raising chickens. If our experience is any
criterion to Judge from, he is now up
against a proposition wherein the shortest
way out of the trouble is via the frying
fan route. There are several hundred
different kinds of feed and people enough
to advocate the use of every one of them,
certain ways to build your roosts, nests,
how to prevent and cure diseases, and
ways without number to make them lay.
Mell says the one advantage he had fore
most In mind when he bought said chick
ens was that when a customer came In
and demanded fresh eggs he could take
them to the front door and let them listen
to his hens cackle, thus driving away all
doubt as to the freshness of the eggs.

to jump. Others turned their heads to be

NO TIME TO FIND INNOCENCE
Jury ia Prof, (teamen Case Retards
Verdict on the First
Drllot.
"The Jury did not wait twelve hours to
hand In a verdict because It required
that length of time for deliberation, hut
only because of a question of legality ss
to returning the verdict on Sunday," said
Frof. A. H. Waterhouse, principal of ihe
Omaha high school, mho atended vhe
trial pf Prof. J.' W. Searson of the Peru
Normal school at Auburn. 'The fact
Is, as was generally understood, the
jury lost no time In arriving at
a verdict; it found Mr. Searson
not guilty on the first ballot. It
was Sunday morning, however, . when,
through the usual routine process, the
verdict was reached, and as there was a
question In the minds of some about re
turning the verdict en Sunday it was
finally decided after this question had
been settled, as it was late not to repo.-t
the finding until during the day. The
jurors retired and gave In their verdict
about 11 o'clock Sunday morning. I
think it Is only fair to Mr. Searson to
briVig out clearly this fact, that the jury
did not spend time In deliberating on tha
evidence which to It and to any other
fair-minded man or men proved conclu
sively the utter lack of foundation for the
malicious charge.
