IMPORTANT DECISION.
The Nebraska Middle Partly Cleared
by the Supreme Court.

u
by the Supreme Court.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 22.-The triangular
contest over the governorship of Nebraska
reached an interesting stage to-day. The
independents had been endeavoring for
two days to proceed with the Powers-Boyd
gubernatorial contest without recognizing
Boyd and without presenting the call for
the joint convention to him for signature.
Yesterday the whole matter was submitted
to the supreme court for settlement, and
to-day the court handed down a de-
cision declaring that under the con-
stitution of the state no joint con-
vention can be held unless it
has been ordered by regular resolution
which must pass both houses and receive
the approval of the governor. The decis-
ion has caused the greatest CONSERVATION
among the independents.
They must now pass another resolution,
which viii take six days to do and if the
governor refused to sign the resolution un.
der the supreme court decision no contest
can be held and Boyd will remain in the
| chair.

the fact that it was the determined policy

After debate the journal was approved.
Notices of amendments to the proposed
rule were given by Mr.. Stewart and Mr..
Gibson. Mr.. Stewards looks to allowing
other than pending amendments to q
measure to be offered and vote on and also
to allow motions to recommit and to lay

the demand for closure of debate to be
