Adams, Cass, Otoe and Knllne counties
liave ll the beat of It. In the apportion
ment of state senators of Nebraska, on the
fluies of population recently made pub
lic by the government. Adams has one
senator for 20.D00, Cas Vian one senator for
21, a)), Utoe haa one senator for 19.I3, and
Pallne haa one senator for VM. Since
the apportionment was made In 1M7, Adam
KaJncd only approximately 2,000 In popu
lation. Cai has gatmd less than 2,000,
Otoe lias lost nearly 2,000, and Saline has
lost 30.
Douglas county has three senators, each
representing approximately 66,000 of popu
lation. Lancaster has two senators, each
representing less than 37. OK) people.
The eig hthydistrlct, comprising five coun
ties, haa a senator for 40,ou0, and the new
census shows a decrease of population In
this district of about 1G,W0. The Fourteentn
district has a senator for Its seven coun
ties, with a population of 7.0W. The
Twenty-ninth district, comprising eight
counties, has a senator for over 62.00U o.
population.
As was naturally to have been expected,
the main growth of population in the last
ten years has been in the western coun
ties of the state, and In the cities of Omaha
and Lincoln. In Douglas county. Includ
ing Omaha, the growth has been 28.0JJ,
which is close to the average figure of the
majority of senatorial districts as now es
tablished. Vtratern JVcbraska Haa Claims.
It would appear, from the figures given,
that a Just and equitable reapportionment,
as called for by both parties In their plat
forms, would mean at least one additional
senator for Douglas and several additional
senators for western Nebraska. This
would mean, evidently, that the very small
districts mentioned should be switched Into
new combinations that would cut down the
preponderance of power they now have.
Otoe and Cass together, and Adams and
Valine together, would have as near the
Average population of the present sena
torial districts as could be handily figured.
In the matter of representation In the
house, too, the western part of the state
la not adequately treated under the present
apportionment. While some of the coun
ties In the eastern half of Nebraska havw
suffered a loss In population. It will be no
ticed In the tables that, with rare excep
tions, the western counties have gained In
substantial measure.
For purpose of comparison, the census
figures of 1900 and 1M0 have been taken,
since the population In the first named
year was practically the same as when the
present apportionment of representation
waa made. The returns of the state census
of 1886 was never printed, but laid In the
basement of the state capltol until two
years ago, when the whole thing was con
signed to the furnace.
ropalation. Gala and Loss.
Following are the figures of population
by senatorial districts, according to the
census returns for the decades ending iwo
and 1810. The first total In each Instance
Is for 1900. the second for 1910:
Bartlett Richard
Walks Into Jail .
and Then Out Again
Prepares to Go to Hastings to Join
the Other Land Barons Serv
ing Sentence.
rtartlftt Richards, millionaire land fencer,
strolled Into the PouRlas county Jail with
I'nlted States Marshal Warner Saturday
morning; then they turned around and
walked right out again.
Py this highly 11, but perfunctory
process the prisoner was committed to the
Jail to which he was sentenced on convic
tion and then re-delivered to the United
Plates marshal .'or transfer to the Ilaatlngs
Jail In execution of an order from the at
torney general.
By the unfurling of this roll of red tape
Mr. Richards was enabled to Join his as
sociates, Comstock, Jameson and Trlplett
In the "millionaire flats" of the Hastings
Jail, with all the comforts of home and
a Japanese chef.
It was the expectation of the trio that
the telephone In the luxurious If restricted
quarters at Hastings and other conveni
ences ordered would be In place in time
for the welcoming of Mf. Richards. How
ever, owing to the generul Interest taken
by the public In the neat and well appointed
arrangements of the land baron's establish
ment, they decided to delay the completion
of the fittings.
Marshal Warner had no more than re
turned from his trip to Leavenworth for
the delivery of F. L. Markham and Paul
Brady, counterfeiters, when he had to pre
pare for his start to Hastings.

Motion for continuance and demurrer to
the Information In the Frank Erdman dy
namiting case both were overruled by
Judge Lee S. Estelle in the criminal di
vision of the district court Saturday morn
ing and JCrd man's trial will be commenced
at 9:30 Monday morning.
John O. Telser, Erdman'a attorney, and
County Attorney English battled fiercely
over the two propositions. Mr. Telser de-
dared that Emma Workman, who would
testify to seeing other men than Erdman
carrying a suitcase In the vicinity of the
Tom Dennlson home on the day the dyna
mite suitcase was placed on the Dennlson
porch, haa been induced to leave the eity;
that Augusta Tuse, a girl with whom Erd
man had made a dinner appointment, for
the time when he Is said to have placed the
suitcase on the porch, haa left town and
cannot be located; that a waitress at the
Calumet restaurant, who would testify
that she served Erdman at the time he is
said to have placed the suitcase on the
porch. Is In a delicate condition and could
not well come to the courtroom to testify.
County Attorney English said all these
witnesses testified at the preliminary hear
ing and the state will agree that the tran
scripts of their testimony may be Intro
duced at the trial. He said the contin
uance motion did not show due diligence
on the part of the defense.
The motion for a continuance was over
ruled with the proviso that the testimony
of witnesses not present who testified at
the preliminary hearing might be intro
duced by the defense, Mr. Yelser argued
his demurrer on the ground that the In
formation .dJd .not state specifically that
the dynamite In the suitcase was sufficient
to cause death. Ha said the Information
says, "sufficient to blow the house to
pieces," when it should state the quantity,
one stick, one pound, or whatever It is
supposed to have been. This also was
overruled after a short argument by Mr.
English.

Dozens upon dozens have already
made use of the 075 "Concession
Checks"; ocores upon scores, most
likely hundreds WILL U3e tluse coupons as
$73 payments before Januiry 1,1011, when
the "concession privilege" expires. The
075 cat, mlii you, C3iri33 oil REGULAR
Kimball pr.ces, a strictly honest dljcount.
NjEVER before have you had such an
IDEAL Christmas opportunity
fill
FOR years you've put off purchasing a piano;
perhaps you thought your "old timer" good
enough; perhaps you claimed yoi couldn't
afford a new one. But there Is NO excuse NOW.
Your OLD piano is down and out; your children
are ashamed to perform tipon it; while you, think
of it, have an opportunity to purchase the world's
most POPULAR piano with 76 of its price chopped
off the moment you BUY It. Don't say: "I'll think
over it," for, if you delay it beyond January 1,
1911, you will NOT get the $75 CONCESSION,
and one MORE Christmas will have passed with
out a new piano.
TO assure the habitual doubter; to set back the
professional "wise one," we will say that the
Kimball' pianos and player pianos upon our
floors now, are marked at only the LEGITIMATE
prices they have brought for YEARS. The 7
"concession" is offered you by 4he V. W. Kimball
Co., of Chicago, at an experiment in advertising.
The Kimball Co., is endeavoring to cut out high
priced magazine advertising and aims to reach the
buyer DIRECT. WE are out nothing because the
checks are sent in by us as CASH to the Chicago
offloea and our account &re credited lust that
much.
