Smyth VIII Ask Rehearing.

Lincoln, Nov. 23.-Attorney General
Smyth will file motion before the su-
preme court for Il rehearing in the
case decided Wednesday against the
state board of transportation. Many
lawyers are of the opinion that while
the decision of the court establishes
the fact that the board as at present
constituted Is without authority, 1t
does not necessarily abolish 1t. The
original act creating the board of
transportation was passed at the leg
islative session of 1885. At the SEES
sion two years later 1t was so amended
as to make it in many RESPECTS a new
law. 1t was on these amendments
that the question of consttutionality
was based. and the claim advanced is
that the original act of 1885 Is not
nullitied by the decision.

NATIONAL AID invoked.
Keynote Of Irrigation Congress
is Government Control.
FUTURE OF THE ARID WEST.

Gathering at Chicago Discussing Proper
Preservation Of water suppiy-Letter
From vice President Elect Roosevelt.
Views of General Miles.
Chicago, Nov. 23.-Vice President
elect Theodore Roosevelt, In letter
read last night before the national irri-
CATION congress, placed himself on rec
ord az heartily In sympathy with the
aims OF that organization.
His letter contained his practical
promise OF assistance In the effort
which will be made froiy now on for
government aid to irrigation and an
appeal to all "far-sightcd citizens" to
interest themselves I'm a movement
which will benefit the entire nation.
Governor Roosevelt's letter was di-
rcctly In line ns regards Its point Of
view with the feeling OF the congress
as developed in discussions which had
lasted all through the day. 1t was
the paper Oh the construction OF great
storage reservoirs by the government
for the general use OF entire districts
by farmers read by Captain Hiram
Chittcnden, engineer corps, u. =. a.,
which started the discussion, and per-
haps half of the delegates to the con
grcss found a chance to support the
project with strong words. A letter
from Lieutenant General Miles was
very enthusiastic toward the same
end
The congress believes that 1t is as
much the duty of the government to
take measures to prevent drought as
It is to prevent the filling up of hnrbors.
1t believes 1t Is just as real n duty for
the government to open up vast areas
of arid land as to provide new courses
for shipping. 1t believes further that
the time for action IL ripe. that the
ground has been well prepared, and
that all efforts should be concentrated
during the coming session of congress
to secure satisfactory legislation.
At the afternoon session Colonel II.
II. Maxson, secretary of the congress,
submitted his annual report. He stat
ed that the membership OF the associa
tion now comprises nearly 1000 Of the
leading mercantile and manufacturing
concerns of the United States and ex-
tends from California to Maine and
from Minnesota to Texas. Agricul-
tural, commercial, horticultural and
labor organizations from one end Of
the country to the other have strongly
mdorsed the movement by resolutions

The Norfolk weekly Ncws-Journai.
The NORFOLK WEEKLY News and
NORFOLK JOURNAL have been consoli.
dated and the paper appears today under
the name of THE NORFOLK WEEKLY
News JOURNAL. The publication of
the WEEKLY NEWS has been changed to
conform to that of the JOURNAL, which
is Friday.
BY the consolidation Of the News and
JOURNAL two of the oldest papers in the
county are merged into one. The
JOURNAL is the older, having been es.
tablished in 1877, while the publication
of the News was commenced in 1881.
There is but one paper in the county
that can boast of greater age, the
Madison Chronicle, which was started
in 1873.
The subscription list of the News.
JOURNAL will be combination of the
lists of both the WEEKLY News and the
JOURNAL, but where both papers were
going to the same party of course only
one copy will hereafter be sent. Those
who are paid in advance OH the JOURNAL,
if they are also subscribers of the News,
may have it continue to their address or
have il sent to some friend in the east
during the remainder of the time for
which they are paid. Credits on the
JOURNAL cannot be transferred to the
DAILY News account. Local advertise.
ments which were running in the
JOURNAL will appear in the NEWS
JOURNAL.
Foreign advertising in the JOURNAL
will be discontinued and new contracts
made where desired. This is done be-
cause in nearly every instance the for
eign adverti ;ements which were run.
ming in the JOURNAL are also under con.
tract with the NEWS, and the latter con.
tracts will be carried to completion in
the NEwS-JoURNAL.
The combination of two of the Oldest
weekly papers in the county gives the
News. JOURNAL circulation second to
no weekly paper in the state, outside
Omaha and Lincoln. Norfolk mer.
chants should make note Of this. as it
means that they can reach all the peo.
pie through the NEws.JoURNAL that
they ave heretofore been able to do by
paying for All advertisement in both
papers.

therein $4,000, which he desired to

was sent and hence must have been

blown to pieces and robbed of its con-
tents. The robbers are still at large.

Jailed on n Six Months' Term in
Maryland, for Assault.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. Dec. "a
William Warner, organizer OF the Uni
ted Mine Workers, and leader in the
recent miners strike In the Georges
Creek district entered the Maryland
house OF correction yesterday to serve
q term OF sig months imprisonment i'm
posed upon him by the courts of Alle-
gany county for participation in an
assault upon non-union men during
the strike. With him were five others
convicted and sentenced for the same
offense and six others are behind the
bars of the Allegany county jail for
shorter terms. Warner and his COM
panions were shaved. their hair was
clipped short and striped clothes were
put upon them, as ID the case with or
binary naale:actors. Strong efforts are
being made to induce Governor Smith
to pardon Warner, as it is generally
believed that his offense was moro
technical than actual. his contention
being that he was attempting to pre-
vent the trouble rather than melting
it, as was claimed by the prosecution at
the triaL
