(From a Staff Correspondent. 1
LINCOLN, Nov. 24. (Bpeclal.)-The Ne
braska Rar association, after a lengthy
debate on the mode of procedure, recom
mended the following attorneys to Gov
ernor Sheldon as goad timber for supreme
Judges:
E. R. Duffle, Omaha.
Jacob Ksweett, Omaha.
C. E. Calkins, Kearney.
E. E. Good, Wahoo.
B. F. Good. Wahoo.
J. J. Sullivan, Cclumbus.
E. C. Epperson, Clay Center.
8. II. Sedgwick, Tork.
Jesse L. Root, Plattamouth.
H. M. Grimes. North riatte.
When that order of business was erached
the morning session f. A. Searles of
Omaha Introduced a' resolution providing
that no endorsements be made to Governor
Sheldon, but that he be left untrammelcd
the selection of the four Judges. Mr.
Searles' resolution, however, provided that
the bar should endorse a non-partisan
court. After speeches S gainst the amend
ment by Francis Brogan , of Omaha, who
said Governor Sheldon had requested the
bar to make endorsements, the Searles
resolution was lost by a vote of 47 to 39.
Then came the wrangle over the way
the endorsements should be made. Brogan
proposed that an Informal ballot be takn
and each person vote for ten lawyers a4
those voted for should be the nominees
from whom the ten to be reported to the
governor be chosen.
This opened the whole subject, and Lieu
tenant Governor Hopewell talked against
ny recommendations, as did Senator King
from Osceola. Paul Clark settled the matter
by suggesting that each man present .vote
for ten and keep up the voting until ten
rren had received majority of .the . votes
Cf.St.
Three ballots were necessary before the
ten men were selected. .The first ballot re
ulted in the selection of the ' following.
there being 99 votes cast: E. R. Duffle,
62; W. C. Calkins, 66; John J. Sullivan, 88;
E.
E. Good, 66; Jacob FaWCett, 60.
The second ballot resulted as follows:
i. F. Good. 58; K. C. Epperson, 69; S. 'H.
Sedgwick, 62; J. L. Root, 63. H. M. Grimes
received 49 on this ballot, which was one
less than enough to get him over the wire.
Judge Grimes was then selected by ac
clamation.
While the canvassing committee was out
In the morning H. H. Wilson delivered an

"The State Railway commission should
not be crippled by the incoming legisla
ture," said C. C. Wright, attorney for the
Northwestern railroad, who Is here attend
ing the state bar association.
Mr. Wright's statement was brought out
by a report In Lincoln that the next legis
lature intended to enact some specific legis
lation relating to common carriers and
would probably curtail the powers of some
of the appropriation for the maintenance
of the commission.'
"The railway commission should be given
full authority and should be encouraged
by the legislature." continued Mr. Wright,
and should be kept up to that dignity
which the work It Is doing entitle it In
my opinion it would bo- a grave mistake to
Interfere with the commission."
For soveral days' 'It has been reported
around : Lincoln that the democratic legis
lature had little sympathy for the it. II way
commission, and would, In all probability.
cripple Its usefulness by refusing to ap
propriate sufficient funds for it to con
tinue along the lines mapped out.
In the campaign two years ago. Governor'.
eit.t Bhallenberger made light of the com
mission and what It would accomplish and
this year George W. Bergs went after the
members, charging they had accomplished
nothing.

up Its classification of freight rates, though

Pierce Weal Be laaepeaaeat.
Insurance Deputy Price will recommend
to the auditor for his approval, that the
Insurance department be separated from
that of the auditor either by being plaoed
under an Insurance board composed of
state officers or by a constitutional amend
ment which will create a new office.
Mr. Pierce has discovered that It is not
a good thing for the Insurance department
to be the tag end of any one office. The
reason Is, because the state officer Is liable
to overrule anything and everything the
Insurance deputy does without having the
knowledge of the deputy. In the case of
a board of Insurance commissioners, Mr.
Pierce believes, all the board would da or
have to do would be to endorse whatever
the deputy does, as Is the case of the state
banking board. .

TORK COl'STY HAS BIG CORN SHOW

YORK, Neb., Nov. 24. (Special. Hun
dreds of farmers from long distances are
coming to York today to examine the
great exhibit of corn grown and needle
work done by school children of York.
The Judges from the experimental farm
at Lincoln and others who are attend
ing, claim that the corn show here is
one of the very best ever held, and the
Commercial club of York will send the
greater part of the exhibit to the na
tional corn show at Omaha. The display
of corn Is better than ever shown at
any of the York county farmer Institute
meetings, and tbe many uses that the
corn stock, the pitch, the leaves, shucks
and cobs can be used for, in manufacture
of novelties, necessities and household
uses. Is most surprising.
The show here is a great object les

Interest with the younger people, but the
parent, who for years has been raising
corn, selecting his seed in the same old
way as his father and grandfather did
in the years past He now realises that
scientlflo breeding of corn that hs the
strength and vitality to resist diseases
and mature early, making a greater
yield, does not take any richer soil nor
more acres than poor corn raised on the
same kind of soil. Edward Otte, a ten
ant farmer, plowed up a one and one-third
acrehog; lot last spring and -planted to
corn. The yield was so large that he
was asked to weigh every bushel, and
over the scales this plot of ground yielded
136 bushel. Charles Detloff planted Just
one bushel of a eed on six acres, and the
corn was shucked and weighed, yielding
ninety-one -bushels per acre, or 646 bush
els. At the corn show, nearly every ar
ticle of furniture has been . made from
corn stalks. Complete form buildings.
portlers and other novelties are made.
The awards will be made tomorrow.
