(From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, Jan. 15. (Special.) The self-
tyled progressive Insurgents of Lincoln
are liable to lone the meeting after all and
have It go down In hlftory under the title
of demo-pop convention. The democrats
of Lincoln are boosting the meeting Jml
as frantically In order to drum tip a crowd
as are Frank Ilarrlfwon and Paul Clark.
T. 3d Doyle and uth-prs are -advertising
the Insurgent movement for all that's out,
ind It will be no fault of thn democratic
leaders if that meeting Is not about equally
divided between Bryan sympathizers and
would-be republican officeholders.
In the evening papers here yesterday
Mr. Flansburg, who ailed to land the
Job of federal Judse, the place having been
given to Judge Munger, gave out for pub
lication some letters which he had re
ceived, showing how the mate had gone
clear -wild over the efforts of hla crowd
to save the country.
One of these letters was from Dr. Hal
lett of McCool Junction. The doctor was
very much Interested and wrote a letter
f encouragement to the bunch, insisting
that the meeting would be the very thing
' to save the government. The letter, of
course, was given out to tne public under
the guise of having been wrltttn by a re
publican.
Dr. Hallett for Bryan.
Those who know Dr. Hallett are not sur
prised that he endorsed the meeting. Dr.
Hallett has been for Bryan for president
so lung that his o!1et friends do not re
call when he was for anyone else. In fact,
the written documents show that awhile
back he predicted that a certain republican
would yet be "boosting for Bryan."
Another letter from. Mr. Barton of Uni
versity Place, whooping up the meeting
and urging all the people to Insurge, wag
also given publicity. Mr. Barton Is an old
time populist. He formerly lived at Cur
tis, and from out there oomee the Informa
tion that Mr. Barton can be counted on to
Insurge any old time the movement Is
against the republican party.'
aome republicans have really written to
the committee In charge of the meeting,
but bo far they have not been given pub
licity. The manager of the affair has now said
It Is possible that the meeting will not
endorse any candidate for the senate on
the. republican ticket, but wilt take It out
In Just insurglng. Whether this was
brought about by a split as to whether
to endorse . a democrat or a republican
cannot be learned at this time, though
the management Includes as many persons
who voted for Bryan for president as It
does those who voted against him.
' War Ahead of Boole Men.
I '.Many of those attending the meeting! of
' the ! county suportntendertta and - school
j prtnclpaJs went home with their feelings
, prety wen milieu uci um
i nocjatlon Is being managed and promise
of a rebellion in camp ,wos freely made.
1 Princlpal CUne,.;ln his -toast . at the an
' rjual banquet, deprecated the acts of the
j teacher who, holds his job by a resort to
' politics or political tactics.
Another complaint over the banquet was
the fact that It was managed entirely by
representatives of a book company and
the teachers had little to do with It. The
banquet developed that the book men were
of mpre- importance around the meeting
than the educators.
The upshot of the dissatisfaction will be
a big fight, so some of the teachers said,
at the meeting of the State Teachers' as
sociation. The fight will be against the
book men and the, ring which now con
trols that association.
The superintendents and principals elected
the following officers: Fred M. Hunter
of Norfolk, president; E. K. Hurst of Falls
City, vice preldent; W. II. Clemmons of
, Fremont, secretary, and A. H. Staley of
Superior, treasurer.
t Requisition for Bailer.
Governor Shallenberger has Issued a
requisition for the return to Cherry county
. of William Bailey, under arrest In New
Mexico. Bailey is wanted on a charge
of horse stealing.

ance, was built by the people of Broken

Ruins of Place Near

KEARNEY, Neb., Jan. 15. Special Tele
gram.) Henry Hlns, a young man 23 years
old, was burned to death at his home sev
enteen miles northeast of Kearney, Satur
day morning Hlns lived alone In a small
house, about half a mile from his nearest
neighbor. Fire broke out about 7 o'clock
and was first noticed by a neighbor, Sam
Buchman, who saddled a horse and hur
ried to the spot. In the ruins of the b'llld
lng were found the charred remains of the
young man. He had met death In his bed
room and seemed to have been unconscious,
laying In a sleeping position. Mystery sur

TWO MEDICAL STUDENTS
EXPELLED FOR CHEATING
HURRY BRIDGB TO BEAT ICE
Union Paelfle Trying- o Complete
Structure Before Floods Bevln..
COLUMBUS, Neb., Jan. 15. (Special.)
By working night and day on the concrete
foundations for the new double track bridge
west of this city the Union Pacific hopes
to have the structure completed before the
ice in the Loup river breaks up this spring.
About 150 men have been employed at the
bridge all winter, even in the coldest
weather, and there have been many minor
accidents resulting from slipping on Ice
coated wood and steel. This Is the largest
and longest bridge on the Union Pacific
main line in Nebraska and the structure
is being built In a very substantial manner.
At present there remains about a week's
work on the foundations and then it will
require about ten days to lay the stone
pier. All winter there has been a steel
gang at work taking the steel parts of the
bridge from the yards and putting them In
place. As each sixty-foot single track span
is replaced by the new double track struc
ture traffic Is delayed a little over an hour,
the new spans being slid Into place on
greased tracks. At present the company
has a telegraph operator at each end of
the bridge and when It Is completed this
expense will bo done away with. Another
reason for rush work Is that the ice In the
river Is exceptionally heavy this year and
the large amount of snow makes a big
flood quite prohablo and they want , all
the false work taken out so there will be
nothing to stop the Ice.
nlveralty of Nebraska Authorities
Take Rtrlna-pnt Action Against
Men for "Cribblna-."
LINCOLN. Jan. 15. (Speclal.)-Two med
leal students, a girl and a boy, were ex
pelled from the University of Nebraska
yesterday for "cribbing" In examinations
In a class under Dr. C. W. M. Poynter.
These students, with several others, had
been under-surveillance for several weeks,
' but the Instructors In the college of medi
cine had failed, until last week, to get
tangible evidence against them. Only
these two students were caught In the act
of cheating, but the professors In the col
lege are on guard for other "crlbbers'
and It Is likely that more suspensions will
be made before the close of the semester.
The young man who was dismissed from
the university this week is the son of
prominent ex-offlclal of this city.

Hay Fired by Incendiary.
BROKEN BOW. Neb., Jan. 15. (Special.)
Some time during last night a large quan
tlty of hay on the ranch of Nelse Lee, fif
teen miles southeast of here, was destroyed
by fire. Just what damage wis done Is yet
to be ascertained, as the condition of the
roads makes slow traveling and news is
meager, but owing to the present scarcity
of feed the loss must be considerable. The
fire Is supposed to have been caused by an
Incendiary, and acting on that theory Sher
iff Kennedy started for the scene this aft
ernoon, taking with him a couple of blood
hounds. The hounds are said to be well
trained and, If given a proper show, will
do the work. The farm has been rented
for some time, and It Is alleged that there
was bad blood between the tenant and some
outsider with whom he had business deal
ings. S. R. Lee, a son, accompanied the
sheriff and will assist In trying to capture
anyone who was criminally responsible for
the fire. Both Mr. Lee and son reside In
Broken Bow.
