members adhere to the 'Reorganized"
wing of the church, and are commonly
termed the Josephites, as they claim
that Joseph Smith was the true prophet
and deny the spiritual leadership Of
Brigham Young. The Josephites broke
away from the followers Of Brigham
Young before the exodus to Utah, and
have persistently opposed polygamy.
The Reborts controversy has been
earnestly discussed by the Indepen-
dence MormOns, and the result of the
discussion was the adoption of the fol-
lowing resolutions by the elders today:
Resolved, That the Independence
(Mo.) branch of the Reorganized
Church of Latter-day Saints desire to
be placed on record as protesting
against the seating of 3. H. Roberts,
cOngressman-elect from the state of
Utah, it being a matter of public
knowledge that he is a polygamist in
belief and practice, contrary to the
laws of the land. He should not, there
fore, be permitted to represent his
state in the legislative halls of this
cOuntry.'

WASHINGTON HAS THE GRIP.
Ten Per Cent of the Capitals Popu-

Washington, Jan. 2-The grip and
the ailments attendant upon 1t that are
now included in its train of ills. have
prostrated an unusual number of resi-
dents of Washington. An observant
pharmacist estimates that 10 per cent
of the districts population is suffering
in one way or another from the new
generic grip.

treme cold weather, the ceremony was
witnessed by a great crowd gathered IN
the assembly hall of the capitol. Pre-
ceding the Inauguration there was a
parade of civic and military bodies.
Bishop Doane of the Protestant Epis-
copal diocese of Albany offered prayer;
and Secretary of State McDonough ad-
ministered the oath OF Office to the
gOvernor-elect, after which Governor F.
S. Black welcomed his successor. Gov
ernor Roosevelt said, in part:
"A heavy responsibility rests upon
the governor of New York state, a state
of 100000 of inhabitants, of great
wealth. of widely varied industries and
with a population singularly diversi-
fed, not merely in occupation, but in
race origin, in habits of life and in
ways of thought
1t is not an easy task so to frame
our laws that justice may be done to
all alike in such a population, so many
of whom have interests that seem en-
tirely antagonistic. But upon the great
and fundamental issues of good gov
ernment there must always be a unity
of interest among all persons who wish
well to the commonwealth.
There is less need of genius or Of
any special briliancy in the admins
Uration of our government than there
is need of such homely virtues and
qualities as common sense, honesty and
courage.
1T is absolutely impossible for a re-
public long TO endure If it becomes
either corrupt or coWardly; If it is,
public men, no less than it's private
men, lose the Indispensable virtue OF
honesty, if its leaders of thought be-
come visionary doctrinaires. or if it

TURPIE,s SUCCESSOR.
Indiana Goldbugs Engage In a Lively
Scramble


indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 1.-Two
thirds of the Republican members OF
the Indiana legislature are here, parti-
cipating in the fight for the election of
a. United States senator to succeed Da-
vid Turpie, Democrat. Senator Turpie
has served continuously for twelve
years and Will, from all indications, re-
ceive the unanimous complimentary
vote of the minority. There are five
active candidates for his place-Judge
r. S. Taylor of Fort Wayne; J. Frank
Hanly of La FayeIte, Major George w.
Steele of Marion, Frank 3. Posey of
Evansville. and Albert J. Beveridge of
indianapolis. The fight is peculiar be-
cause of the unusually large number
of candidates, who represent pretty
well all sections of the state.
The first senatorial caucus viii be
held Jan. 10 There are likely to be
several caucuses, as a choice at pres
enH seems to be far removed. Under
an act of congress governing the time
of electing senators, the first ballot
must be cast Jan. H.
Just at present there is no doubt that
Hanly, who is an eX-member OF con-
gress, is in the lead, with eight or ten
more votes at his command than any
other candidate. Judge Taylor stands
second in the race, and there Is
strong under-current in his favor. Po-
sey's location is counting in his inter
esf. as the southern half of Indiana has
not had a senator for nearly forty
years Major Steele's abilities as a
practical politician cause him to be
feared by the other candidates.
Predictions on the result are uncer-
tain. and a deadlock is predicted by

Wount General Lew Wallace, ex-Lieu-
tenant Governor Cumback and a. C.

HOT FIGHT IN NEBRASKA.
Eleven Republicans In the Field For
the Senatorship.


Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 2.-The twenty
sixth biennial session of the Nebraska
Legislature. convenes at noon tomorrow.
The Republicans haYe a majority of
nine on joint ballot. seven in the senate
and two in the house, assuring that
party, in all probability, a successor to
United States Senator Allen.
The most interesting struggle, /)r the
time being, is a contest for organization
OF the lower house, the canvass for
speaker being especially exciting. What
in the early stages of the struggle
looked like a Republican spit, and the
possibility Of a fusion speaker, has to-
night given way to d better feeling,
with a prospect of some sort OF an
agreement before the hour of conven-
ing. Late tonight caucus on the
speakeTship was begun, with prospects
of continuing until long after midnight.
The ballot for senator VIII occur two
weeks from tomorrow. and while the
fusion minority viii give their solid
support to Senator Allen, the Repub-
lican strength will be divided among
eleven active and passive aspirants.
The Republican list includes Judge NJ.
L. Hayward of Nebraska City; D. r.
Thomson. G. NJ Lambertson, Allen w.
Field and N. 3. Reese of Lincoln; John
L. Webster of Omaha, ex-COngressman

RIOTOUS STRIKERS.
Several Men Seriously Injured at
Ashland, Nebraska.

Omaha, Neb., Jan. "A Bee special
from Ashland, Neb., says; This morn
ing, when the day gang began work at
Armour & Co.'S ice house at Memphis,
sixty-eight laboreTs. mostly from Oma-
ha. who were employed on the night
force. asked for an increase in wages
of 21h cents an hour. Their demands
were refused and they went on strike.
At a meeting of the laborerS last night
the men on the night force agreed to
ask for an increase, but the day gang,
composed of men living in the vicinity
of Memphis, refused to join them. The
strikers this morning tried to persuade
the day force to help tie up the works.
Failing in this, they attempted to
blockade the works and prevent work,
when a fight ensued. Pike-poleS were
hurled at the strikers and several men
were severely wounded.
Several murders may result from the
fracas. as one of the men from Lincoln
had his head torn open and is reported
to be in q dying condition. The day
men drove the strikers away and they
came to this city, most of them taking
the return train for Omaha Warrants
are out for the arrest of the strikers.

chairman of the commission appointed
by the governor in response to a reso-
luton adopted by the last legislature,
requiring the members to secure in

graves of confederate soldiers who died
in northern military prisons, has sent
a cosy of their report to General Mar
Gus j. Wright, the agent of the war de-
partment, whose letter to the adjutant
general of Georgia has already been
made public. The report is by no means
complete, and it is lacking in essential
details, because the work of the COM
mission was hampered by the lack of
suitable appropriation of funds TO meet
necessary expenses but it shows that
nearly $4,000 confederate dead are bur
led in northern states.

RUSSIA HAS MONEY.
Abundance of Cash to Meet All De-
mands.

st. Petersburg Jan. 2--An imperial
decree, just issued, directs the payment
of Il. 5.OGO. 600 roubles. out of the free cash
reserves in the imperial treasury for
the redemption of a large portion of
the state debt to the imperial bank.
The issuance of the ukase is regarded
as disproving the reports spread abroad
of Russia's embarrassment and of her
efforts to recontract a loan.
1t is declared on trustworthy author
ity that the question of a loan in no
way engages the governments atten-
ton, as the suggestions to the contrary
emanate from representatives of the
financial world, who increasingly ad-
dress loan propositions to Russia
