FOR RURAL SCHOOLS
House Advances Measure to
Third Reading After Long
i Session.
SENSATION IN CHARGE
(Krom ii Staff Oorreai)ondnt. )
Lincoln, Feb. 23,-(Spccial Tele
gram.) Making a spectacular stand
for his bill to make a levy of one mill
throughout the state in order to as
sist rural school district, W. J. Tay
lor, member from Custer, took the
floor this afternoon and for an hour
gave the house an insight into what
the bill would do if it became -a law.
Every session Mr. Taylor has made
at least one speech along education
lines which has attracted wide atten
tion, but this time he ivon his ooint.
the bill being ordered to third read
ing by a vote of 64 to 19. Mr. Taylor
empnasizea nis speecn by use or the
blackboard.
Charges Are Numerous.
The occasion was filled with tense
situations. Charges were made that
attempts were being made to create
dissension and bad feeling between
the rural districts and the town anrl
when at the close of his speech Mr.
tayior cnargea tnat a man from
Omaha when claimed to represent the
Commercial club of that city had
made overtures to him to have the
bill amended, promising that lit
would see that the club saw to it
that the entire Douglas county dele
gation would support it, there was
agitation in that delegation.
"Who was taht man," shouted
Keegan. ,
"Jesse Palmer," replied Mr. Tay
lor. "I don't think it is fair to the Doug
las county delegation to assume that
this man spoke with authority," said
Mr. Hopkins with some warmth.
Club Never Indicated.
"I can say that the Commercial
club of Omaha has never indicated to
us what its wishes are regarding this
bill." ,
"1 want to say, Mr. Chairman,"
said Richmond, ' that the young man
mentioned by the gentleman from
Custer was a member of the last legis
lature and there was not on the floor
a brighter or more influential mem
ber. 1 have just talked with Mr. Pal

believe that the Omaha Commercial

do know that nothing has ever been

I regret that this personal element

Dean Cutter Appears
Before House Committee
(From a dtaff Correepondent. )
Lincoln, Feb. 23. ( Special Tele-
Igram.) Dean Cutter of the Univer
sity Medical college ot Omaha, with
others, appeared before the finance
ways and means committee of the
house this evening in behalf of an
appropriation of $240,000 needed to
equip" the college and the new hos
pital building connected with that in
stitution. Don't Experiment With
It Often Leads
You Will Never Be Cured by Local
Treatment With Sprays and
Douches.
Catarrh is a condition of the blood
and can not be cured by local appli
cations of sprays and douches; this
has been proven by the thousands
who have vainly resorted to this
method of treatment.
Catarrh should not be neglected or
experimented with. The wrong treat
ment is valuable time lost during
which the disease is getting a firmer
hold upon its victim, and making it
more difficult for even the proper
treatment to accomplish results.
Though Catarrh makes it first ap
pearance in the nostrils, throat and
air passages, the disease becomes

Grand Island Forfeits
Game to Peru Norjnal
Grand Island, Neb., Feb23. (Spe
cial Telegram.) Dean Sutherland of
the Grand Island college ruled too
late to advise Peru that the Grand
Island basket ball squad could not
play? owing to the low grades of a
few of the players, and the basket
ball gariie was forfeited to the Peru
team, the latter having appeared at
the appointed time.
jyer Team Wins Dog
Race and Makes Record
Nome, Alaska, Feb. 23. Fred
Aver was in possession today of the
Silver trophy cup presented by John
Borden, wealthy sportsman of Chi
cago, and $1,000 prize money, having
won yesterday the annual twenty-six
mile dog team race. The trail was
lightning fast and his time of 1:55:46
broke all records for the distance.
H. S. Kiley was second, eight seconds
behind the leader.
Catarrh;
to Dread Consumption
more and more aggravated and finally
reaches down into the lungs and
everyone recognizes the alarming con
dition that results when the lungs are
affected. Thus Catarrh may be the
forerunner of that most dreaded and
hopeless of all diseases, consumption.
No local treatment affords per
manent relief. Experience has taught
that S. S.'S. is the one remedy which
attacks the disease at its source, the
blood, and produces satisfactory re
sults in even the worst cases. Catarrh
sufferers are urged to give S. S. S. a
thorough trial. It is sold by all drug
gists. You are invited to write to the
medical department, for expert advice
as to how to treat your own case.
