(From a Statf Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 2S.-(8pec!aU-The
war between the Statt Board of Public
Lands and Funds and the war depart
ment of Nebraska has finally been Fet
tled without referring the matter to tho
National Peace congress and the janitors'
of the state house will not have to step
over the dead body of Major Hayscl In
moving out tho furniture.
When tho edict of the board first went
out that the adjutant general should
move to the fourth floor there was much
ado. General Hall did tho weeping, Ma
jor Blrkner the watllnff and Major Hay
Bel the gnashing; ot teeth, but Governor
Morehead Is the real power behind the
"thrown." and when he said that the
National Guard believed In obeying or
ders and should therefore set a good ex
ample by obeying the orders of the board,
the war was over and tho dove of peace
z fluttered back through the window.
As soon as the Board of Control, which
Is responsible for the change, can pur
chase carpets and other equipment for
th new quarters of the adjutant gen
eral the "tramp, tramp, tramp" will be
heard along the corridors of the state
house. The new quarters of the guard
will be In tho northwest rooms ot tho
newly finished fourth floor.

Barton Says Expects
to Make Race Again
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Nov. 2S.(Speclal.)-Con-gressman
Silas R. Barton ot tho Fifth
Nebraska district spent Thanksgiving
with relatives In the city. Mr. Barton
denies that ho Is a candidate for gov
ernor, as shown by press dispatches this
morning, but on the other hand expect
to succeed himself as representative In
ccngress.
He Is ot the opinion that the currency
bill will bo badly butchered by the time
It passes congress and will not be any
thing like Its original self.
lie Is bitterly opposed to any bill which
will In any way be a foot ball for policies
and will oppose It In every form tend
ing to make It so.
He thinks that there Is a great deal
of Inconsistency among the peoplo of tho
United States. "What they cussed Joe
Cannon for doing, they nre applauding
President Wilson tor," said the congress
man. "Cannon bossed the house of rep
resentatives and was fiercely censured
for It. President Wilson Is preparing
bills and ordering congress to pass them
and the people applaud his action."
Mr. Barton will leave tonight for
Omaha, and from there will go tomorrow
to Washington.
