WON'T ACCEPT
THE NOMINEE.
Thirteen Nebraska Republicans Arrayed
Against Thompson.
Mr.. Thompson Receives the Re-
publican Caucus Nomination
For the Short Term.

Lincoln, Neb.-(SpeciaL)- 1.-The legisla-
ture in joint session failed to ratify the
senatorial caucus made by republicans
last week. David E. Thompson, the
nominee for the short term, received
ffty-six votes, six more than he re-
ceived in the caucus. With 125 mem
bers present sixty-t three would have
elected. No one, however, seriously ex-
pected an election, and Mr.. Thompson's
friends are well satisfied with the show
ing.
The republican members who refused
to vote for him are the original nine
baIters from the first ADMINISTRATORS
Steele and Olson and Representatives
Whitmore, Mccarthy, Jouvenat, Bro
derrick, Mendenhan, Swanson and Ev-
ans-and in addition Senator CrOunse
and Representatives Cain and HathOrn.
Two republican members, Senator Mar
tin and Representative Marshall, were
absent on account of illness.
The plan of the anti-Thompson men
was disclosed in the voting, it being to
build up the strength Of any candidate
aside from Mr.. Thompson and Mr..
,Rosewater.
Friends of Mr.. Rosewater created a
sensation by declaring mat the caucus
action was not strictly binding on the
members, for the reason that under the
agreement two nominations must be
made before there is an election. This
Is regarded as a confirmation of the
combination between ROsewater and
Thompson. Friends of Mr.. Thompson
deny, however, that there was any such
agreement, and say the caucus is final
and binding. Mr.. Thompson made the
following statement:
Mr.. Rosewater has no such agree
nent made by myself or anyone for
me. You may say as emphatically as
you wish that no written agreement
Of any kind with Mr.. Rosewater or any
other candidate exists"
The Thompson men profess to be able
to elect their man whenever they wish,
but they will give the candidates for
the long term an opportunity to make
a nomination before pressing a vote. Mr..
Thompson's personal preference for a
colleague is said to be George D. Mel
klejohn, but as he is under obligations
to the Rosewater men he is obliged to
carry out that part of the contract.
The nine original caucus boilers de-
:lare they will never vote for Mr.
;or election is to induce enough fusion
SITS who are friendly to him to remain
away from the joint convention.

Mr.. FRICK BUYS A TOWN.

Henry C. Frick, formerly chairman of
the Carnegie Steel company, has bought
a town. The name Of it is Blair, and
it is in Pennsylvania, on the Monon-
gaheIa river, 20 miles from Pittsburg-
The site covers twenty acres of land.
This village is to be turned into a
field. Later its site will be covered
with industrial plants. Meanwhile
homesteads will be demolished, land
marks obIfterated, the life of settle
ment crushed out. All of which is, Of
course, not at all to the point Of Mr..
Tricks transaction.
But in case any murmur of protest
should be heard. there is wonderful con-
ISOLATION in another scheme which Mr..
Frick has in view
Destruction and reconstruction are,
he believes, twin principles, and, with
this in mind, he has planned to move
as many houses as possible to slopins
hillside not far away. where he hopes to
.ay out and push through new town,
he name of which has not been de-
.ided upon.
This he believes he can mails one of
The most fourishing Of Pennsylvania
r.anufactvrfng places.
This will leave open the entire river
,ront. and, while it is not Mr.. Tricks
dea to use it for his own purposes. he
intends to control the placing of indus
rial plants to such an extent that the
,ew growth shall be along the lines he

ISLAND FARMERS ARE IN NEED.

San Juan, Porto Special )-The
San Juan chamber of commerce has
called mass meeting for Sunday of the
principal planters, bankers, agricultur-
lists and merchants with view to
agreeing on some feasible plan for the
relief of financial depression.
The outcome of the meeting will prob
ably be petition to Governor Allen to
cali an extra session of the legislature
and to authorize loan of from s3.OO0.-
600 to $5.OOOOOO for the benefit of agri-
culture. The promoters Of the meeting
hope to impress the governor with the
expediency of such a measure.
In calling the meeting the chamber
cites particularly the situation of the
coffee planters, who are unable to OBJ
tain funds to husband their crops IN
til harvest time; funds are also neces-
sary for cleaning and fertilizing the
ground, but they are not available.
The loan bill of the house Of delegates
was killed by the executive council, but
it is now believed that when the facts
are properly presented the former OBJ
jections will be removed. Small re-
turns are made by large plantations
solely because of the lack of a little
capital 1t is critical time for the
planters. There is good authority for
the statement that if the necessary
funds were forthcoming they would
yield SO 1-3 per cent on the first in

NEBRASKA GAME LAW PASSED.

Lincoln. Neb.-(Special)-Th senate
1as passed house roll 1873, a bill for the
protection of game and fish, by vote
Of % to l. The bill has attracted con-
siderable attention throughout the
entire state 1t does away with market
hunting and places many other restric-
tions on the hunter.
The senate, by an almost unanimous
vote, recommended for passage senate
file 286. Senator Crounse's bill provid-
ing for the sale of the governors man
sion and the furniture therein. Speak
ing in behalf of the bill, Senator
Crounse said that the state had no
right whatever to maintain a govern
or's mansion. Our constitution strict
ly prohibits any such thing. 1t is true, -
said the governor, that other states
furnish their governors mansions, but
it is also true that their constitutions
are framed so that they can do so Ie-
gally. 1t is also suggested that our
governor is too poorly paid and that
he should be furnished his house rent,
but this is only an argument in favor
of the bill, for it is well known that a
governor would have to be a wealthy
man to maintain the mansion. Our
present governor does not care to IN
dertake the maintenance of it, and l
do not think the state should maintain
it any more than it should the home of
any other state officer. We never had
any legal right to purchase it, and we
should get rid of it as soon as possible"

NsTsTs on PIECE wORK.

Cedar Rapids, Ia.-(Special.)-At 4
conference between General Manager
Williams of the Burlington, Cedar Rap
ids & Northern and striking shopmen,
Mr. Williams offered the man many
things they had not asked for but in
sisted that they would inaugurate the
piece work system throughout. The
machinists, boilermakers and black
smiths will not work under this system,
although the men in other departments
do not object to it. There seems little
probability now of an early settlement

JUDGES TO MEET NEXT WEEK

Lincoln, Neb.-CSpecial)-Th judges
of the supreme court will probably meet
next week to determine on the appoint
ments for the court commission. The
bill creating the commission was sign
ed yesterday by the governor, but the
court today was unable to agree on
men for the nine positions, and when
an adjournment was taken it was with
the understanding that an informal
meeting be held next week to decide
the appointments and other matters ap-
pertaining to the commission.
