Because of various Irregularities In obtaining naturalization papers, sixteen Nebraska residents of different nationalities will probably have to go through the process of being, mnde cltisens a second time Papers have been completed In the office of United States Attorney A. W. Lane for filing In the federal court attacking the validity of their certificates. Most of those whose cltlsenshlp Is thua called Into ques tion live at Omaha and South Omaha, but others are scattered over the state. The list Includes Germans. Bohemians, Scandi navians. ItaJlana. an Irishman or two and others of miscellaneous nativity. The suits to have the decrees of itatur allxatlon set aside will be commenced In the districts where the persons respectively live. Only two of the number will be filed In the Lincoln division. In some cases It will be alleged that the Individual was naturalized Illegally before he had been In this country five years. Another ground will be that some of them were more than 18 years old on arriving In this country and did not make a formal declaration of their Intention to become citizens, which Is required of all except those coming here as minors. In one or two Instances the claim will be made that the certificate Is defective because witnesses for the person naturalized were not themselves citizens. Despondent Woman Hangs Self. Crazed by a lingering sickness, Mra Klaus Peterson, of College View, a pa tient at the Nebraska Sanitarium, com mitted suicide by hanging "herself to an apple tree some time last night. The woman was CI years old and had been ail ing for some time, so that It waa necessary for her to be almost constantly attended. Mrs. Peterson has had the attention of a trained nurse for some weeks and was also cared for by her daughters, Anna and Edith. Last night the woman got up, dur ing the absence of her attendants, and at 9 o'clock she was discovered to be missing. A search was made of the premises , and an alarm was sent forth to all of the build ings connected with the sanitarium, to be on the watch for Mrs. Peterson, who was thought to be wandering about ' the grounds. She waa stopping at one of the annex buildings of the Institution. After a earch which extended through out the entire night the woman was found dangling from an apple tree this morning. Coroner Matthews was notified of the death and after an Investigation he pro nounced the cause of the woman's death as suicide and did not order an Inqueat to be held. Dr. O. A. Rockwell, the attend ing physician, atated that the woman has been 111 for a long time and he said that the hanging waa the result of a weakened brain, caused by alckuess. Mra. Peterson formerly lived at Elm Creek. Y. M. C. A. Wants flOO.OOO.

Heretofore when farms In Merrick county became too expensive and too scarce for farmers desiring more land to Invest here they have been In .the habit of moving further west, but It has remained for Jesse Gregg of Mead township to invade the east and with the proceeds of his labor In Merrick county fields to purchase hlmBelf a home there cheaper than ha could secure good land here. Mr. Qregg has Just re turned from an extensive tour of the east, and brings the newa that he has bought himself a fine farm on the banks of his toric Lake Champlaln In Vermont. He says that he secured a good tract of thoroughly subdued farming land there and that the price waa $3,000 for seventy acres, which is cheaper than the poorest land in Merrick county has been selling for this year, while the higher priced land here l Koing at double and treble that price ien ft can be secured at all. Mr. Gregg will move his family to Vermont some time during the month of February next. AT THE PRINCESS CLOAK & SUIT CO.

Ber AecldeataJly shot. HUNTLEY, Neb.. Kept. . Special.) Eddie Webater, aged IS. of Alma, acctdently bet himself while bunting about one mile estry. and greatly regret that It waa not begun years before. "Congress has come fully to recognize, the necessity of pursuing forestry reform by making liberal appropriations for the pur pose. The forest lands of the United States ought to be surveyed and carefully pre served, and its Jurisdiction In respect to them clearly defined. "The regulation of foreats In private own ership within state ' boundaries Is not plainly within thejrange of federal Juris diction and It should be undertaken by the states. I don't think the states have taken up the matter with as much energy as they ought and have not improved the op portunity which was given them by way of example by the forestry bureau of the United States. Irrigation Projeets Need Fonda. "The plan of the government to reclaim the. arid and semi-arid lands, manifested In the reclamation act, has been carried out most rapidly by the bureau charged with its execution. I had the honor the other day. In Colorado, of opening the most ambitious of these projects at least the most difficult of them the Gunnison which Is to bring water Into a valley In Colorado, known as the Uncompahgre val ley, with some 150,000 acres, and to put It In a condition to grow fruit and cereala. "There are some thirty projects which have been entered upon by the reclamation bureau, and I believe that all of them are to be commended for their excellent adap tation for the purposes for which they were erected, and for the speed with which the work has been done. "It is believed, however, that in the plan ning of a number of these improvements, the enthusiasm of the projectors lias car ried them to a point where they begin to feel embarrassed in the matter of resources with which to complete the projects, and begin to show that the strict limitations of the reclamation act were not closely ob served by those engaged in executing them; that the projects were too many and more than could be completed in a reason able time after their beginning, because of a lack of funds. Ten Millions More. "The reclamation act .provides for the ex penditures of funds made up by t lie sale of public lands and reimbursed from titan to time by the installment to be paid by the settlers who take up the Irrigated land and also proviues that no part of a project Is to be contracted for and bngun until the money for the completion of that part of the project contracted for shall be in the reclamation fund. "Now, it appears that it will take $10,000. 0P0 or more, which is not available in tin? reclamation fund at present, fully to com plete the projects, and ii also appears that a great number of persons, by reason of the beginning of the projects, have been led into inuking settlements, the expendi tuie of time and labor, with the hope that such entei prise would be carried through !n a reasonable time. "1 think tin ie is no doubt that it w ill be the intention of congress that pro gress should not be multiplied in such a way that they could not be completed within a reasonable time with the reclam ation funds pro irtfd by the sale of public lands and it probably would have been wiser to adhere strictly to. the limitation thu construed, even though the language of the act, by dividing up the projects Into parts on terms, seemed to permit the be ginning of more projects than there was likely to be money enough to complete within a reasonable time. "The pressure was doubtless great and the reclamation service yielded to the pressure within the letter of the law and now find themselves In the situation de scribed. The work baa been well done and reflects credit upon the engineers who have charge of It. (taieatlon It to ('agreai. "But something must be done to relieve the present situation which is one of dis appointed hopes to many settlers tpoa the arid lands, who counted upon an eurly completion of the projects undertaken and invested their money and spent their time and aeemd to be no nearer the goal of sat isfactory Irrigation than they were when the projects were begun. I think It wise to apply to congress for relief by urging the passage of an enabling act which shall permit tho secretary of the Interior to Issue bonds in the sum of 110.000.000 or more to complete all the projects. These bonds should be redeemed from the money paid Into the reclamation funda after the com pletion of the projects. "From conversation with senators who have visited much of the reclamation work I Infer that such appeal seems to them to be the easiest way out of the difficulty and I shall take pleasure In recommending the passage of such a remedial measure by the next congress. "One subject that Is now being agitated In some quarters calls for notice. Payment for Irrigated lands is required In ten annual Installments. Suggestions are now being made that these should be lengthened In a longer term. I sincerely hope that con gress will not listen to such appeals. It may be well to make the first three or four installments nominal, but after that time the Installments should be large enough to pay the total amount due, upon which no Interest Is calculated, in ten years. An other course will encourage lack of thrift and industry and greatly embarrass the ex tension and continuance of Irrigation. "Never until now has adequate provi sion been made for a classification of lands to show distinctly what are mineral lands and what are agricultural lands. The truth Is that the needs of the country have developed some and the demand has also much Increased, that In order to se cure a sensible business like disposition of the lands remaining in the public domain, there must be authoritative classification of lands by the proper bureau. "With respect to forest lands owned by the public, they should be surveyed and held by the government under the regu lation of the forestry bureau, permitting a sale of such timber as shall be necessary in the proper forest preservation. As to Power Sites. "As to water power sites, there lias been such a change in conditions that a special provision should be made in the Interest of the public for their transfer to private control. "We have reached a time when the Im portance of these water power sites has greatly Increased and there would seem to be no reason why it would interfere with a speedy development of the country to impose restrictions upon the use of such water power sites equitable as between the public and the investor. "There is now no power vested In the secretary of the Interior to Impose the conditions suggested. The matter has be come so important that under the last administration large tracts of lands amounting to upward of 4.000,000 acres were temporarily withdrawn from settlement In order to prevent the acquisition of water power sites under the general land laws. This amount has ben reduced under the present administration to 460,000 acres. It should be understood that these with drawals are temporary and can be justi fied only as having been made in order to permit congress to legislate on the sub ject of water power sites. Legislation Suggested. "I shall therefore urge upon congress at its next session the passage of a law authorising the disposition of such water power sites, upon terms to be agreed upon by the secretary of the interior with the proposed purchaser. My impression is that the demand for water-power is going to be so great that these restrictions will not prevent the investment of capital, but will ultimately bring to the public coffers a revenue from an entirely proper source and will secure the development of power for manufacturing Industries that will prob ably In time exceed the utility and value of coal and become a substitute for It. Oil, Coal and Phosphate. "I now come to what should be the proper disposition of coal lands, oil lands , and phosphate lands. "It teems wise in the disposition of coal lands and, indeed, of all mineral lands hav ing agricultural value, to separate the sur face of the lands from its mineral contents, and then either to lease the right to take coal from the land at a Specified compen sation per ton that Is, to provide a sys tem of royalties or to sell the deposits ot the land outright to the coal miner. In every case restriction by way of forfeiture ought to be Included to prevent monopoly of ownership. This is the greatest object of a change in the method of their dispo sition. "The same provision should be made with reference to the disposition of the phos phate land In Wyoming and Idaho, which contains the wonderful fertiliser which It will soon be necessary to use on much of the land In tho United States. " "The oil lands of California, as well as the phorphate lands and practically all the coal lands, have been withdrawn from set tlement In order to await the action of congress, and I expect to recommend to congress legislation on the lines above In dicated. What, however, I wish to make as plain as possible. Is that these purposes cannot be accomplished unless congress shall act. The executive can act, but tho legislature must enact. Many Unfair Inferences. "There has been a good deal of dlitcus slon in the newspapers as to the attitude of the preaent administration toward the general policy of the conservation of re sources, and some very unfair and alto gether unfounded inferences have been drawn. The truth Is my administration Is pledged to follow out the, policies of Mr. Roosevelt In this regard and while that pledge does not Involve me In any obligation to carry them out unless I can get congress to give me full authority to do so, It does require that I take every step and exert every legitimate influence upon congress to en i legislation which shall best subserve the purposes Indicated. "I hope nothing will prevent our taking the further steps needed when congress meets. "Secretary Halllnger of the Interior de partment, upon whom will fall the duty of executing the new provisions of the law. In in entire accord with mo as to the necessity for promoting n every legiti mate way the conservation of the re sources which I have noted and he can be counted upon to use the great Influence which he must have as secretary of the Interior to this proper end. "Indeed, it will be found that in his reports as commissioner of the general land office he brought these matters 'to the attention of congress and urged the adoption of a federal policy along the lines I have indicated."
