Briggs, first governor of the state of Iowa,
which has been burled for more thRn
twenty-eight years in Prospect Hill ceme
tery, dmaha, and removal to Andrew, which
town was the governor's home.
Through the efforta of Representative
Ellis and the Iowa Historical aodety-tha
general assembly at Its last session made
an appropriation of $1,000 for the removal
and reinterment of Governor Briggs body.
State Senator C. G. Saunders of this city
and Representative Henry C. Brandea of
Hancock will witness the disinterment of
the body as members of the atate legisla
ture. It had originally been planned to
disinter the body yesterday, but Represent
ative Ellis was unable to be here. If he

not be moved before Friday.
Ansel Brlggs, who waa a native of Ver
mont, was elected governor on Octobet 28,
1816. On December 28. 1846. Iowa waa ad
mitted as a atate. At the close of his term

DAIRYMEN GUTTING TOGETHER
Milk Vendors Seek to Perfect Orgaal
aatlon for Betterment.
Mayor Maloney waa present by Invitation
at a meeting laat night of the Council
Bluffa Dalrymen'a asaociation, now in proc
esa of organisation. The meeting waa held
at the Jorgensen milk depot on South Main
street and a number of the local purveyors
of milk were present. -
This move on the part of the dairymen
to organise waa brought about by the gen
eral demand for a strict Inspection of the
local dairies by some officer acting under
authority from the city. The dairymen, it
was stated, were opposed to municipal leg
islation providing for such Inspection, and
accordingly decided to organise so as to be
better prepared to resist any Intrusion on
their buainess. Mayor Maloney had a heart-to-heart
talk with the milk vendors and
suggested that as soon as they completed
their organization they appoint a commit-
tee to onfer with the city council. The
mayor assured the dairymen that tha city
council did not propose to paas any ordl
.. ,V. ,7 .,
nance or measure that would In any way
Injure the lawful selling of milk and cream.
There was a general demand, however, he
explained, for a more thorough Inspection
of the dairies and the dairy cows.

INTIMATIONS OF SCHEME AFLOAT
Appointment of t arator for Histor

Air and la Not Likely to
Bo Settled Soon.
(From a'siaff Correr',"l,ent
DES MOINES. May 3(l.-(Fpeclal.)-Gav-ernor
B. F. Carroll is expected next week
to name the seven members of the commis
sion for the conservation of natural re
sources In Iowa. Thi3 commlsilen, which
is to serve, without compensation, was pro
vided by1 the last legislature. Its duties
are to make Investigations, surveys, etc.,
of waterways and other natural resources
of the state nrd make a report, tt is
understood there are many applications be
fore the governor for positions on this
commission.
The membership of the commission will
be watched with considerable Interest. In
view of the recent article by Judson Welle-
ver, formerly of Iowa, in an eastern maga-
sine In which he declared the westing-
house people are trying to get control of
all the water power In the United States.
He claims that the transmission of power
is n w practically controlled by these peo
ple and that If they can get control of all
the water power In the country they will
have tha biggest trust America has ever
known. , .' -
It Is understood that other states aa well
as Iowa have commissions appointed to
Investigate the natural resources, and while
the legislatures may have been Innocent
enough and had the mont patriotic motives,
there are those who are asking the question,
if It Is not possible these commissions WBre
created through the influence of some great
water power organlaatlon feat wishes the
river surveys and reports made by nation
and state without expense to them.
It Is a well known fact that during the
recent legislature prominent men who do
not generally give up their time unless
It la for business enterprises, spent days
urging the members of the legislature to
pass a bill providing the creation of this
commission and also urging the governor
to recommend such. Whether theae same
people have been active In recommending
members of the commission Is unknown.
However, In view of the exposition made
by Mr. Wellever In his, article, the people
of Iowa will be Interested In seeing men
appointed on the commission whose motives
can be unquestioned and who would with
hold Ita information from private corpora
tion until made public through the proper
state source.
t'uratorshln I'p to Board.
Governor Carroll. It Is rumored, has re
linquished to the State Historical board
the right to aprolnt a curator of the his
torical department. The law gives him the
right t make the appointment of the head
of this department, which Is under the con
trol of the board as a whole. Other mem
bers felt the whole board should have the
selection. Governor Carroll learning the
attitude of the members readily yielded
his appointive power, It hi said, and haa
now conaented to name as curator whoever
the board select.
The matter, it Is expected, will now be
delayed to June 1. though meetings of the
board are being held -every- few days. The
members are not Inclined to rush the mat
ter of making an appointment. It has been
suggested that the State Historical society
at Iowa City should be combined with the
atate historical department in Dea Molnea,
and both put under one management. Un
der such a plan the state historical publi
cations would be Issued from this city.
Some of the board members are inclined to
think that In view of this fact a curator
should be selected with especial fitness to
conduct this publication feature as well as
the management of the historical depart
ment. There Is a difference of opinion and
as yet the decision has nut simmered down
to any particular candidates. There Is no
criticism of Mi. Harlan, who 14 the acting
curetor, and, Indeed, there are some of the
members who believe he will be the ulti
mate choice of the board. By combining
the two positions the salary might be
raised to a very good sum. The curator
now la provided a salary of but $1,600 per
year.
Pnarlllat Escapes Prison.
Thomaa Hatch, prizefighter, who three
yeara ago was sentenced from Polk county
to fifteen years in Fort Madison penlten
tiary on the charge of robbing Mabel
Woods' house. West Cherry street, escaped
yesterday from prison.
Hatch, In company with Dwyer, another
prisoner, gained access to the new .hospital
and after all the prisoners had been taken

later captured, but Hatch eluded tha

Looking both to the present and
to the future, how about Nebraska?
How. many readers of The Bee are
acquainted with the state? How
many realize that within its borders
are more than a thousand distinct
fertle valfeys? More than four thou
. sand miles of streams? More than
, one hundred good, undeveloped
water powers? Over two thousand
three hundred varieties of plants,
one hundred and fifty species of wild
grasses, and one-hundred and thirty
three species of song birds?
. The returns of yields of cereals,
vegetables and fruits from farms in
all sections of Nebraska almost chal
lenge belief.
There is no people on earth today
more prosperous and contented than
the Nebraska farmer.
In fact, Nebraska seems to be spe
cially adapted to supplying the wants
of modern civilization and keeping
step with the twentieth century prog
ress. The Sunday Bee will emphasize
many of these advantages.
