Nebraska Still Uncertain.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. lO.-The State
Journal has complete returns on presi-
dent from 70 of the 90 counties in the
state. Careful estimates on the re-
manning fourteen shows that Mckinley
has carried the state by 1885. The
journal has returns from fifty-nine
counties on governor. This makes
DIETRICH, Republican, COZ votes ahead
of Poynter, fusion. The remaining
counties should slightly increase his
lead, but as DIETRICH has run behind
Mckinley the result is doubtful. The
Populist state committee claims Poyn-
ter's election by 1900. So close is the
legislature that the official count on
the IL members from Douglas county
may be necessary to decide.

Lynn, Wis, Nov. l2.-While en-.
gagged in cutting down q maple tree
which grew in his pasture, Andrew
Olesen discovered q cavity near its
base, and on investigation found q
wooden box about two feet square
filed with plumber. Among its con-
tents were 100 silver dollars of both
American and Mexican mintage. The
dates were from 1916 to 1859 About
5000 in gold coin, consisting of eagles
and double eagles; several POUNDS OF
old gold and silver watch cases, can.
dlesticlks and q large quantity of solid
silver knives, forks and spoons. This
discovery recalls the fact that some 70
years ago a well-to-do farmer living
between here and Romadka, the next

been murdered and his home robbed
and then burned.

|GOV. STANLEYS MESSAGE,
He Gives Pointers on What he
will Recommend.
WOULD REDUCE OFFICIALS.

Topeka, Nov. 1O.--Governor Stanley
has given out his views concerning his
recommendation to the legislature. He
is thus quoted:
~ will recommend wholesale con-
solidation of boards The penitentiary
and Hutchinson reformatory should
! be governed by one board. They now
have two, The board of charities
should be cut down to three mem bers,
and | will urge the legislature to do it.
The live stock sanitary board will give
way to IL live stock commissioner, II
my recommendations are followed.
~ shall recommend that the contin-
gent funds of the various state officers
be consolidated into one fund, and
that no money be used from it except
upon the order of the executive coun-
ell. Considerable money can be saved
ed in that W y.
II shall call in the various boards in
short time and get estimates from
them as to what it will require to run
the various institutions. II we can
reach an agreement as to the am cunt
needed, then 1 will incorporate it in
my message. This will save the MEM
bers of the boards from hanging
around Topeka during the legislature
lobbying for appropriations.
II also propose to confer with as
many OF the representatives and sena-
tors as possible and see If we cannot
get together on railroad bill so that
it can be rushed through early. In a
general way we know that we want a
commissioner law. We can get to-
gether between this and January and
agree upon measure and then it can
be prepared ready for introduction at
che first at the session. Another
recommendation that | will make is
that position of Kansas pension COM
mi sioner be created. The duty of this
commissioner will be to go to WASH
ington and look after the pension
business of the Kansas soldiers. This
would save the congressman much
work and the pensioners would be
insured prompt service. OF course the
commissioner would work in harmony
with the congressman. The expenses
will be only tribe"
