Names of Candidates ON
Omcial Ballots.

LINCOLN. March 24-(special.)-A re-
vision Of several important features Of the
Nebraska banking law is recommended by
Secretary Ed Royse in his annual report to
the State Board Of Banking. He suggests
an increase in required legal reserve from
Is to Is per cent, the placing Of bank exam
liners upon a stipulated salary basis, the
printing Of numbered certificate of deposit
banks under the direction Of the Banking
board, and points out where Improvements
may be made In the provisions relating to
the election OF bank officers and the loan
ing OF money to bank ~oficisls and employees.
The report was sent to the printer today
but that portion OF II which contains the
suggestions and comments of the secretary
Of the board was given out for publication.
Some Of the suggestions are drawn from
the recent embezzlement in the Platte
Valley bank of Bellwood. The changes
recommended are intended for submission
to the legislature.
Mr.. Royse's report covers the period from
December 10, 1900, to December 10, 1901.
In this time three private banks became
incorporated institutions; forty-seven new
banks were chartered with an aggregate
capital stock OF $44S, 900; four state banks
were reincorporated under the national
banking law, and six went into voluntary
liquidation, paying depositors in full, while
two went into the hands of receivers.

two years shows increases In the following

Success.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 6.-(Corre-
spondence Of the Associated Press.)-An at
tempt will be made to reopen the st.
Petersburg university. and 1t is supposed
other institutions, on Monday, April Z. II
It proves a failure the authorities say no
further attempt will be made until autumn
or perhaps longer. The matter was dis
cussed between students, to whom special
invitations were sent, and representatives
Of the faculty yesterday. The students
desiring admittance were required to sign a
pledge that they would attend no illegal
meetings or participate in any disorders.
II is doubtful II the experiment will sue
coed. The students declared, concerning
the pledge, that they regarded it as a
promise made under constraint and that
they had DO intention Of keeping it.
The fermentation has reached the &C.
clesiastical seminaries, and 1t Is said that
nineteen of them have been closed. 1t is
understood that there is only a remote con-
nection between the trouble in these insti-
buttons and the secular schools. The COM
plants Of the future priests are purely
domestic.
Several incidents have latterly thrown
doubt upon the wisdom of the government
in sending it's politically untrustworthy'
elements TO the rural districts. 1t would
appear that the latter are making rapid
progress in assimilating the doctrines Of the
new residents. The following incident,
which occurred at Poltava, and which is
related on the basis of two separate private
letters, is perhaps characteristic:
DisanectiOn Spreads.
Some sixty st. Petersburg exiles are liv-
ing in Poltava, a town Of about $4,000 in
habitants, in the agricultural south. Pre-
vious to their arrival it was regarded as a
typically somnolent place, the population
being mainly distinguished for illiteracy.
During a representation in a local theater
a few days ago someone rose in the bal
cony and shouted Long live Count
Tolstoi, the accommodated" The cry
was taken up by the other persons in diff
ferent parts Of the house and the play
came to a standstill. The police finally
cleared the balcony and, the SAM evening,
arrested all the exiles in their homes and
lodged them in a frail jail with common
criminals. They demanded the reason OF
their arrest and an immediate hearing, but
received no satisfaction. They thereupon
determined to refuse food, in order TO force
concessions, but finding famine m~onotonous
after thirty-six hours, began a riot. How
the affair ended seems uncertain. One &C
count says all the common criminals who
Joined the political offenders escaped.

If there was ever a medicine that was

You know what happens to the deli

little dirt or some foreign substance
gets into it; that is just what happens
to you when something clogs your deli
cate organs. Just the moment the
stomach, liver or kidneys fail to do
their work in . way Nature intended,
the blood will become impure, and, con-
sequently, your entire system becomes
clogged up with all sorts of poisonous
refuse matter. 1t seems strange that
you feel we'll. 1t seems more strange
that you are able to crawl around at
all.
Here is where Smiths Green Noun
tain Renovation comes in. 1t is a purely
vegetable remedy made Of roots and

from that State will tell you that as far
back as he can remember the people of
that State have been made well and

Major James D. Patton, President Rich

Dear Sir,-I deem 1t proper to bring
to the attention of the Board OF Dtrec-
tors the question of the adv1sabflity OF
this company declining to furnish cleo
trio current toi buildings In which high
voltage electric current for light pur-
poses is being used.
My reasons for suggesting this action
are we'll known to you, and you will re-
call that for more than a year past
have repeatedly called your attention to
the danger, both to persons and
as a fire risk. Of high voltage electric
currents for lighting purposes within
buildings. I am aware that the sus-
gested withdraw wal will subject this COM
pany to considerable loss OF revenue.
and will entail the severance OF business
relations from some who for many year:
have been our patrons, but the time has
now arrived, In my opinion, for this COM

furnish service to buildings subject, as
believe, to 4 very great fire risk.
