Centre Republican, will be a can
didate for the nomination on the
Republican ticket for the office Of
Commissioner Of Public Lands

the Judge were placed thereon the

details of the Nicaragua canal bill were
practically closed up at a meeting of

recommended a directorate Of eleven
members, eight government directors,
and one representative of the company,
one from Nicaragua and one from
Costa Rica. Three government engi-
neers will have charge of the work. 1t
will be provided that the dividends shall
not exceed 5 per cent, so that sinking
fund may be established The govern
ment dividends will be credited to the
sinking fund. Some of the members of
the committee think the debt can be
raised in 25 years on the lines laid
down. Bonds were practically decided
upon today for the whole amount, as
the proposition to coin silver involved
trouble and caused some complications
and opposition. However. that section
OF the bill is subject to change, 80 that
If any plan involving the use Of silver
seems practicable 1t can be adopted.
