T.INroT.N. Ken. 25. (Special.) An ef
fort will be mndc when the Anti-Saloon
lemio board merts hero March 0 to do
pose State Superintendent Pmilnon. For
Homo weeks criticism hnn been made of
the mnnnor In which the state superin
tendent has been attending to his end of
,t' work and now It In said the ftglit Is
' i to Ret hl scalp.
It wa Klvon out this morning that Rev.
Mr. Toulson "would be at the aettlnR."
Thoae who are supporting hi rnsay he la
riot satisfactory to four people, all of
whom are looking for place and salary
-In the Anti-Saloon league movement. It
la given out that Prank Harrison oppose
Poulson hi'caine Harrlwon wants his paper
to be the state paper for. the league; that
Ho v. B. Z: lint ten Is opposed to Poulson
because lie wants to be the field director
of the work; that Thomas M. Wlmberly
Is opposed to him because he Is anxious
for the Job of attorney for the league, and
'sVlnat Jasper I.. Mcllrien Is opposed to him
because McBrlen desires the league's en
dmsement as a candidate for governor.
The opposition to Poulson Insist that he
has demonstrated that he Is not an or
ganiser and has not done what should
Imlri been done to put the temperance
fo",.s In shnpe for a fight during the
coming campaign.
In the first skirmish It looks as If the
opponents of Poulson havo secured the
. -first fall. When the temperance people
T began to talk of organizing Lincoln to
fight against the saloons It was an
nounced that Rev. Mr. Poulson Intended
to poll the city the first thing. Following
V tliat came an Interview with a member
).f the committee of thirty that If any
polling was done the committee would At
tend to It and Rev. Mr. Poulson would be
forced to keep his hands off.
Judge Frost's Position.
Will Judge Lincoln Frost resign from the
bench to make the race for the republican
nomination for congress In tha First dis
trict? That la the question being discussed
among the politicians and lawyers and the
general sentiment Is that if Judge Frost
does run for congress he will almost neces
sarily, upon making his announcement,
reslsi'al from the bench.
ShotM he resign at this time Governor
Hhallenbergcr would appoint a Judge to
fill the vacancy to serve only until the
November election.
Jt ! because of the fact that Judge Frost
will almost be forced to resign from the
bench that many believe he will not be a
candidate for congress, even though he Is
anxious to make the race and he Is now
dickering for a conference with Oeorpe
Tobey to get him out of the way.
Whon Judge Frost was endorsed by the
Par association of Lancaster county . a
couple of years ago the action was In
spired, so It was said at the meeting, by
a Aintnnd that the Judiciary be taken out
ot.tAlMosfa.ta 'ft was- muds plain thAtthe
candidate . who recelvod tbe endorsement
would not' use his office of 1udge as a
stepping stone to congn ss. . .
Many lawyers axe anxious that Judge
Frosi make up his mind soon whether he
intemff to run for congress, because when
he rrMpns from the bench there are
several who desire to make the race for
IiIm present place.

Road Valuation
is Good Picking
for Job Holders
Of Forty Thousand Dollars Appro
priated, There Remains Substan
tial Sum to Be Distributed.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LIISX'OLN, Neb., Feb. 25 .-(Special.)-The
appropriation made by the late democratic
legislature for the use of the Department
of the Physical Valuation of Railroads Is
going to be good picking during the com
ing months. In all J40.000 was appropriated
for this work of which to date ,4S0.12 has
been spent.
It Is no fault of the department, however,
that more money has not been expended
for as a matter of fact Mr. Hurd. the
chief engineer, was not employed until
some time In June, while tlw others who
are now up against the pay roll did not
get annexed for months later and probably
others will be put to work as the time
draws nearer for the appropriation to lapse.
For this J9.000, which has been spent In a
few months, the state has a collection of
blue prints furnished by the railroads,
showing the location of railroad lands In
towns and villages and cities and also a
report on the valuation of depots, tool
houses and other property lockted on the
right of way. In addition agents have been
sent out to secure the value of lands ad
jacent to the railroad right of way In
order to check the one with the ottver.
In the meantime the State Board of As
sessment will meet In May and within a
month or so from this, it will have placed
a valuation of the physical property of the
railroads of Nebraska and tax levies will
be made In accordance with this valuation
' added to the value of the franchise.
The railroads will have made tefore then,
a report of all their property to the state
board as they have done for years, bo In
bad weather the physical valuation experts
will thus be able to go to the office of
the state auditor and get Information they
desire.

SCOTT'S HIAFF. Neb., Feb. 25 (Spe
cial.) The completion of the great 'needle
dam" across the North Platte river, Just
below the hcadc'ite of the Farmers' Mu
tual rannl, nenr the Wyoming line, la an
nounced by tho engineers who have had
clnirgo of the work.
Tiio completion of this dam affects some
thing over 70,000 acres of land along the
north bank of the North Platte In Ne
braska, and aside from this the dam Itself
is an engineering feat worthy of note. The
dam, which was commenced something
over two years ago by the Trl-State Land
companw, In connection with the building
of lis canal, now taken over by the Farm
ers' Mutual Canal company, la over 900
feet In length, and completely abuts off
the flow of water In the main channel of
tho North Platte.
The base of the dam Is constructed of
heavy piling and reinforced concrete. Upon
this are fastened tho "needles" which are
made of wood, and hinged at the bottom.
During the seasons when the water In the
river is sufficient to fill the canal, the
"noodles" or superstructure Is let down In
a horizontal position, thus allowing the
water to flow down the river without In
terruption, but during the esason when the
water Is low the "needles" are raised, and
form a complete obsctruction, turning the
water Into the canal for Irrigation pur
poses. So far as Is known there Is but one other
structure of similar character In the United
Status and none of equal size and Impor
tance. Experts declare, however, that
there is no question as to the stability and
utility o fthe dam, and the great amount
of land affected makes It a work of im
mense Importance In the development of
the upper North Platte valley.
The ditch of the Farmers' Mutual Canal
company, when fully completed will be
over 100 miles in length and will be suffi
ciently largo to water at elast 90,000
acres of laiul. During the last year sev
eral oencerns have been exploiting land
under this and other canals In the upper
valley and this, In connection with the ex
tension of the government project In
Scott's Bluff county, has caused a steadily
Increasing Influx of settlers and Investors
Into this part of the state.
Land practically valueless before the con
struction of the Farmers' and government
canals or worth from 16 to 25 per acre has
Jumped In value to $70 and as high as J2W
per acre, as soon as the problem of get
ting water for Irrigation was solved. Con
tracts already let call for the completion of
the Farmers' canal as far as Bridgeport
by the beginning of the Irrigation season,
or about the last of June, 1910.

many pointers that will prove invaluable when the change to lighter

Owing to the advance in woolens 75 of the clothing manufacturers are
using 9V& to 10-oz. fabrics and few of the last mentioned weights instead of
putting the increased cost onto the price, they take it off the weight to make
up the difference and this spring every retailer, Omaha or elsewhere, who is
tied up to special makers will be loaded with clothes made of these light,
flimsy fabrics that can't possibly hold their shape. Buying fabrics and having
our tailoring done to order permits us to guarantee, not only that oar 1010 garments (except outing clothesO

WASHINGTON. Feb. 25.-An attack on
Supreme Court Justice Harlan for activi
ties before a house committee In behalf of
a bill to extend government assistance to
the Geor Wellington university was
made today by President James of the Uni

mittee on agriculture. It is understood that
Justice Marian had been on the payroll
of the university at a salary of from 12,000
to $3,000. Mr. James said:
"It seems to me It Is not quite proper for
a Justice of the supreme court to urge upon
congress among whose members are many
men who practice In his court and who
may be beholden to him for favors, that
thy should make appropriations for the
benefit of a private Institution on whose
payroll the Justice lias bton for the
