JUST TWENTY-ONE YEABS, , AGO Weather Hgrrii Trrilli'li Fair and Rl.ln- Mercury for Wfdaedr After Wtrk of IMercl Da-Atmosphere. After a week of very cold weather, Tues day . brought a Material rise in tem perature for Omaha and It was the more remarkable because Tuesday was the twen ty-first anniversary of the biff blizsard that made itself historic In Nebraska, Iowa nnd the Dakota January 13. 1888. Tuesday rot only cume in mild, but brought the pre diction of rlBing temperature Wednesday also. The weather bureau record of January 1:', 1K8K, shows the ferocity as well as un equalled suddenness of a storm that reaped such a harvest of human life throughout these state. ' ,' The morning and early afternoon of that day were Ideal lit-' mild wintry weather. Tho wind during the forenoon and early afternoon was mild and from the southeast, nnd to the casual observer there was not up to, noon 'the slightest evldonco of a storm. At I2:1p tlc first premonition came wjth a warning to Hie weather bureau to hoist the cold wave flag, George M. Chap pel was then In charge of the weather bureau station In Omaha, lie Is now con nected with the, feather bureau service nt ' 'The" temperature' that day "fell rapidly until it reached 8 3-10 degiees below sero at 10 p.' m., or a fall of thirty-three and three-tenths degrees' within seven hours. The storm raged with increasing in tensity lale into' the night and had spent lis' force at midnight. Many acts of heroism Were performed by Citizens of all clauses and particularly by pollre officials. So severe was the storm that frantic parents could not face the Kale to hunt, for their children. Telephone and telegraph wires were put completely out of commission and parents and friends wero left In suspense until the follow ing day. when It was ascertained that there had been no loss of life from, the storm in Omaha. Throughout the state the suffering en tailed . by ' the storm . was widespread. It came up just as most of the district schools were; closing and many children over ihe state were, frozen to death. The pages of Nebraska history are illumined with no brighter deeds of heroism than tlv'se performed by the women srhool 'eachers of the country schools of Nebraska ii thvkr noble efforts to gather their. little school flocks in their care in the poorly tirUIPPfd school houses, haystacks and other, available refuges to save them from icrishing. Several -of these heroic vounn women lost their own lives in their ef- Invalids from frosen limbs in their endeav ors to save the children, and but for their s If-sacrlfice and nobility of courage and devotion the loss of life among the chil dren of the plains would have been appall ing.

DAVE O.BRIEN FOR MAYOR 'I'm in the Race to- Contest domi nation with Daiilraan," He Kay.. Dave O'Brien, member of tlio Omaha Water board and former member of the council, has announced his intention of con testing the democratic nomination for mayor with Mayor Dahlman. "I can't say that I have the mayoritls." said Mr. O'Brien, "but all the same I would like to be mayor of Omaha If I could get It, and If you Intend to pin ma right down fo an answer of 'Yes or 'No' I will tell you that I think I could be nominated and elected. However, If I go Into this fight It will be absolutely clean. I have nothing against Mayor Dahlman, he la a mighty good fellow, but party leaders seem to think that I would make a stronger run, and If victory would be more certain with Dave O'Brien at the top of the ticket than with Jim Dahlman there, why, Dave O'Brien will do what he can for the party. Mr. Dahlman has, however, been unwise In one or two particulars, and I have had to eat some things' I said three years ago. For instance, he has brought the liquor inter ests into too much publicity, and this is bad. He ought to have adopted policy like that of Mayor Brown of Lincoln, who is good frte.nds with the liquor interests and good friends with the churrh." , Mayor Dahlman asked Mr. O'Brien Mon day if there was any truth In the State ment that he was to be a candidate and tho latter told him that he waa-In the hands of his friends, the old stereotyped phrase of the politician.

Judiciary Bedford. Court House and Jail Tralnor. Detection School Xenaard. Charity Tralnor. County Hospital Bedford. Hoads Plokard. Bridges Plckard. Whole Kennard. Construction Bedford. Fred Brunlng, commissioner from the Second district, will serve as chairman of the Board .of County Commissioners for the next year and during that time, by the appointment of Brunlng, the two democratic members will have control of the four most important committees. In the reorganization of the board Tues day morning on ballot Brunlng received the votes of his four colleagues, himself voting blank, and in the afternoon the new chairman apportioned out the com-, mltteec, remembering his pledge to the democrats, ' ' ' .ttSfuntng..msde his committee appoint, ments at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, following a protracted meeting of the other four members, who vainly at tempted to agree upon the assignments. Following the failure of his colleagues, Brunlng made the appointments, llargely In line with that what he had decided upon when he first announced his can didacy for the chief position on the board. Democrats Get the Pick. The ten committees were divided, fairly equal In number between the two fac tions on the board, but the democrats were given the choice. .The committees on roads and bridges, classed as two of the most important, were given to Oscar J. Plckard, one of the new democratic members, and the other democrat' on the board, Jeff TV. Bedford, was given the committees on construction, county hos pital and judiciary, the first two being of considerable Importance. Of the other six committees, F. B. Kennard, the retir ing chairman, was given finance, deten tion school and the whole, and P. J. Trainor was given claims, court house and Jail and charity. Following his election,' Bruning addressed the commissioners briefly, closing his re marks with a statement that on account of the discussion regarding the committee chairmanship he had decided to leave tt with the other four commissioners to de termine how the committees should be de cided. Commissioners Kennard, Tralnor, Bedford and Plckard then retired to the committee room and for two hours dls cussed the division of the committees, but without result. "We agreed on some, but because we could not agree on all we decided to put It up to the chairman to appoint," said Jeff W. Bedford, one of the democrats, fol lowing the protracted discussion. "W. practically decided that Commissioner Plckard, as the one country member, should have the committee on roads and bridges, and we agreed that I should have the county poor farm matters. But the 'stickler' was the court house construction committee. Both sides wanted this and neither could agree, so we decided to throw up the whole proposition and let the chair man appoint." Bid. on Printing;. Bids were received for books, blanks and stationery from the Rees Printing company, K. A. Tyron. Burkley. Reed Printing com pany, Corey & McKenzle, John C. Tbomp son. Klopp A Bartlett company, Feetner Printing company, Omaha Printing com pany, Moyer Stationery company. Bids also were received from the Smith-Premier Typewriter company and the Remington Typewriter company. These matters were referred to the county commissioner lor tabulation.

Home and Jones to Omaha. J. Wilkfs Jones, general mangr of Ihe National Corn exposition, arrived In Omah:i from Idaho Monday night and Assistant General Manager W. O. Paisley loft Tues day for his home In Jasper, Mo. The ar rival of the one had nothing to do with the departure of the other, the sequence being entirely accidental. ( Jones stopped here for a dsy to look at his correspond ence, which has mounted up during his vacation In the weBt and Paisley has com pleted his work so far as the exposition of 1908 Is concerned. The last few weeks he has been busy sending out the mer chandise premiums which have a total value of S46.O0O. Vouchers, for the cash rremlums went out Tuesday, There are 800 of these dis tributed by states as follows: Wisconsin 3!

Iowa ran this state second, with Missouri third and Colorado fourth. The Colorado cash prizes were nearly all won in the dry farming section. Annual Meeting- Last Chapter, The sending out of these merchandise and cash premiums and the computation Of the financial status of the corn show will complete the work for the 1908 exposi tion. The last act In tho drama of corn will be the annual stockholder's meeting held the fourth Tuesday in January. A board of fifty directors will then be chosen who will, in turn, nominate the executive committee. Not untli this meeting is hold will there be any action on the invitation of the National Corn association to Omaha to hold future expositions here. Mr. Jones' present visit in the city will be a short one for he must leave nt once to lecture before short courses at the Uni versity of Minnesota and at Ames, thus paying back aid given the com show by agricultural professors In these Institutions. Jones returned to Omaha enthusiastic bout Idaho and tho orchard which he and Prof. Holden are Jointly founding in tho southern part of the state. "Idaho will bo great fruit country," he declared, "and in a few years there will be none better In the world." Inasmuch as Mr. Paisley's absence from the city will be for some time, he was given a warm Godspeed from many friends here whom he has made through bis faith ful and efficient service for the corn ex position. ' - Premium Winner a Philanthropist. Just before he left he received a letter from one Merchandise premium winner, W. F. Dodda of Columbus, Neb, 'Give my sweater to some poor Omaha man with a large family, who has to work out ''of doors '" -this cold winter," wrote Dodds. "''I don't need it myBelf."

The meeting of th. board was brought to a close shortly after i o'clock, after which time the chairman and the board met with showers of congratulations. The next meeting of the Board of County Comrr lbtloners was set for Friday morn lng at ! o'clock. Bigger, Better, Busier That's what ad vertising in The Bee does for your bust-nets. FORARER MARES MW CHARGE (Continued from First Page.) tingent fund of his department had been expended, giving the names of every per son to whom any portion of such fund has been paid. Report Disbursements. "This appropriation," he said, "being for the War department, the report should have been made by the secretary of war, and he Is not 'relieved of that duty by the fact that the money can be expended only with the approval of the president. The secretary of war evidently has entertained this view, but- so far as I can ascertain no detailed or Itemlied reports to congress of expenditures from this fund have been made, but only general reports, showing the aggregate sums expended for each year." The "contingency" under which this use of the war fund of 1S99 was used, Mr. For aker declared, was "the remote one that men should be required to prove their Inno cence of a crime before a judge who had already pronounced tnem guilty -under a bill then pending In the senate." "And all this," insisted .Mr. Foraker, "in the pres ence of the fact that there was the most bitter and determined opposition to the measure and that there was another meas ure pending which provided that all might be re-enlisted . who cared to re-enlist, but that ther right to. further prosecute before civil or military tribunals should be re served as to all against whom any evi dence might be secured in any manner at any time after such enactment. Private Detective. Barred. "But, waiving all technical or doubtful objections and assuming for the sake of argument that the constitutional provision quoted does not apply and that the ruling of the Treasury department that the ap propriation Is permanent Is correct, and that It continues to stand, and will stand. as an available appropriation for such pur poses as those for which It was Intended, until entirely exhausted, the question re' mains whether such payments as are now under consideration are legitimate and proper to be made from It. It would seem that granting all I have Indicated they are yet, nevertheless, clearly illegal and in flat violation of the following statutory provi sion: " " 'That no employe of the Pinkerton de tective agency or similar agency shall be employed in any government service or by any officer of the District of Columbia.' "This provisions was enacted in 1892 and lias been In force and effect ever since. But inasmuch as it was found In an ap propriation bill It was thought proper In ISM to re-enact It, amended so as to em ploy the word "hereafter" to the end that there might be no question whatever about Its being the continuing law of the land until repealed. Deri. re. Payment. Were Hire. I. "This re-enactment was In 1S93 and reads as follows: " That hereafter no employs of the Tln kerton Detective agency, or similar agency, shall be employed In any government serv ice or by any officer of the District of Columbia.' "This statute Is still In force and effect, unrepealed and unqualified. It was In full force and effect at the time when these contracts with Browne and Baldwin were made by the secretary of war. "In view of these statutes, all these pay ments are clearly illegal, not only without warrant or authority of law, but In plain Violation thereof." Speaking of the use of private detectives In Investigating the Brownsville affair, Mr. Foraker declared that "It Is Impossible to find language with which to fittingly char acterize sueti a procedure as this detective business has been from Its lnclptency down to the monstrous stages It hss reached. It la atrocious, revolting, shocking to every sense of fairness, justice and even common decency." Condemns Methods of President. Speaking of the reply of the president and of the secretary of war to a senate resolution calling for Information on the detectives' Investigations Into the Browns ville affair, Mr. Foraker said: 'This message of the president with Its exhibits and this report of the secretary of war present a new and most serious feature of this unhappy business. They not only disclose determined effort on the part of the president to again bolster up the case against these men which he has heretofore, on numerous occasions, both officially and unofficially characterized as 'conclusive' and 'overwhelming.' but that he has re sorted to a method In his effort to secure such testimony that can not be fittingly characterized without the use of language which, if employed might appear to be dis respectful to the chief executive. And worst of all, In this endeavor to secure such testimony the president has, himself, committed the serious offense condemned by every court that administers the com mon law, that hss ever had occasion to speak on the subject of holding out to those men an Inducement, or a reward, for giving such testimony, in the form of re enlistment, with full pay, and reinstate ment to all their rights as soldiers." Mr. Foraker presented letters from varl ous men concerned in the alleged confes slons on the shooting up of Brownsville denying In detail various statements made by the detectives. ItDlr by Mr. Lodge. Whrn at 2:40 o'clock Mr. Foraker con eluded Senator Lodge took the floor, say lng he had only one comment to make on Mr. Foraker's remarks, that being In rcla tlon to the legality of the employment of Browne and Baldwin "without reference to their methods or the merits of their work." He said expenditures had been made from this fund under President McKlnley, as well as President Roosevelt, and also by Mr. Root, President-Elect Taft and General Wright, each as secretary of war. No voice had ever before been raised against Its use. No constitutional provision, Mr, Lodge said, had been ' raised by these expenditures. The employment of Browne, he said, was clearly not illegal, because he was not, a deteqtlve by profession, and belonged tk ro agnncy. The clause' under which objec tion to the employment is made is that no employe of the Pinkerton or similar agency shall be employed in the govern ment service or by any officer of It or of the District of Columbia." Therefore. he said, the restriction should only apply to Baldwin, who was a professional detective. Going back to the "intent" of congress In legislating against the employment of Pinkerton detectives, Mr. Lodgo said. It grew out of the armed conflicts between hundreds of Pinkerton detectives and strikers at Homestead during the great strike there many years ago. The terms "detecUve" and "detective agency" were not used In the contracts made In connec tion with this Investigation. At the time this Investigation was made, he said, two bills were pending in congress either If passed would have given the president discretion" In the re-enlistment of the discharged soldiers, and It then seemed likely that one of them would pass. Foraker Resolution Passed.

TILI.M AV DEMANDS A ' HEARING Senator. Troubled as to Best Way to Dispose of Charge.. WASHINGTON. Jan. 12.-Much interest was manifested by senators today In the procedure that will be adopted to dispose of the charges made by the president against Senator Tillman in relation to his attempted purchase of timber lands In Ore gon. Mr. Tillman insists that he shall be "convicted" or cleared of the president's charge of wrongdoing. The Bpectal secret service investigating committee, consisting of Senators Gal linger, Hemenway and Clay, has not agreed to enter upon the additional task: of passing judgment upon Senator Tillman, and It may prove desirable to have a special committee for that purpose. Before the day Is over It is expected that some plan of procedure will be agreed upon. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. Answering a reference by Senator Tillman In his speech yesterday to en Incident of several years ago, when Mrs. Charles Minor Morris was ejected from the White House, Secretary Loeb today made publio letters from Mrs. Morris' son, L. T. Highleyman of St. Louts, and Francis J. A. Barr of Somerset, N. J., bearing on Mrs. Morris' actions. The letter from Darr, addressed to the president un der date of September 21, says: "I am writing you my amende honorable for a great mistake I made three years ago." This refers to Parr's belief expressed at that time that Mrs. Morris had suffered great wrong In her ejectment, The letter . .
