Notes Of tho LEGISLATURE.
Special Correspondence.

LINCOLN, NEB Jan 3 .-During the
past week a little strennosity was in
jected into the legislature by the pre-
M in the city of the bridge lobby.
These bridge contractors we're on
hand O see that no laws we're adopted
to interfere with the graft which they
so successfully work in all parts of
the stat They particularly want to
kill any bill which provides for T II
p 'blicity of plans and esti mates, and
for actual competitive bids on all
classes of bridges. It is noticeable
that some few county commissioners
are working with the bridge men a
combination which is calculated to
make taxpayers sit up and take notice.
Things are also getting very lively
in regard to the county option bill,
permitting all the people of a county
to vote on the establishment of saloons
in any part of the county The
church people have become very act We
VIII le the brewers from Omaha have
be n here in full force to kill the
measure. At this time it looks like

there will be a hard and bitter fight
over the matter.
Tle direct primary bill is still re
ceiving general attention, and it is
quite apparent that many influences
are at work to defeat IL The canvass
made by the State Journal among the
republican papers of the state has de.
voloped the fact that the sentiment is
practically unanimous for the direct
primary. Interviews Nth members
here fail to disclos. open opposition
among those who have votes in tho
legislature Yet it is quite certain
that # the people at home where the
reform is desired do not actively
assert themselves the bill will have a
hard time in getting through.
The House has recommended for
passage the bill prohibiting the sale Of
cigarettes or cigarette parer. One Of
the principal champions of this bill,
and who presented the most concln
sive argument, was Casebeer of Gage,
the only newspaper editor i'm the legis.
lature.
The bill providing for a landlords
lien on the crops of his tenant to Sc
cure the payment of rents was n of
the first bills to fail on third reading
A similar bill has been introduced in
every session fer the last twent years,
and it always is defeated A m jority
of the members in committee of the
whole. where no record is kept of the
individual votes, declare they want the
bill to pass, but when the time comes
to go on record, they vote the other
way.
The movement to establish "A binding
Irvine factory in the state penitentiary

is championed by Cady in the Senate
and Ernst i'm the House Committees
from both houses will go to the Kansas
penitentiary this week to examine the
factory there, and asceI tain how it is
managed. A letter to Cady from the
state Auditor of Kansas gives the in
formation that the factory last year sold
its product to the farmers at a lower
price than that charged by the trust,
and the state derived a net profit OF
Sci 900 from its operation during the
year
Many amendments to the revenue
law have been proposed but the indi
cat ons at this time are that none of
them will receive general support
except the M providing for a change

of the members express themselves as

thoroughly tried 'efore radical
changes are made F. A HARRISON

A WESTERN WORLDS FAIR


~ wv w "" s"s~
Work on the grounds and buildings
of the Lewis and Clark Exposition.
which will:be heli at Portland, Oregon,
this summer, opening June 1 and
closing October -, is progressing
rapidly. Eight exhibit building have
been completed and the installation of
exhibits begun, Will the remaining
structures are nearing the stage where
the finishing touches will he applied.
The mild Oregon winter has permitted
the work to progress without an in
terruption and when the President
presses the button on opening day
every thing will be ready and waiting,
something unusual in expositions.
Not only are the b ildings far ad-
vanced, but the landscape picture also.
The or SIS is green and the roses bloom
in the open air all the year round in
Portland. Thousands of rose bushes
have been set out on the lawns and
terraces and these, kept fresh by til"
winter rains Oregon knows no frost
bites nor sun strokes ARE awaiting
the spring sunshine to bring forth a
ri t of color.
The Lewis and Clark Exposition, al
tn ugh not so large as other eXposi-
tions, will be a worlds fair in every
sense, rejecting the progress of all
participating nations, and particular
ly of Western America 1t will be
quite unlike its predecessors in that
it will combine with it's broad scope
the idea of compactness without
crowding in the laying out of the
grounds nd the housing of the exhi.
bits. There will be no dreariness of
architecture to tire the eye, no miles
of aisles to weary the limbs All will
be perfection, or at least the nearest
approach thereto ever achieved by an
exposition.
The Centennial. which is the first
international exposition ever held
under the patronage of the United
DttttV SoNVt AuiChb "Vo Va u ispShy
Mountains, will celebrate the one
hundredth anniversary of the C
p~loration of the Oregon country by
an expedition commanded by Captains
Merlwether Lewis and william, Clark,
and planned by President Jefferson
The sentiment which inspires the
people of the Pacific Northwest in the
preparation of tn s expedition is one
in which every American must share
The result of this expedition, the
acquisitio of the great Oregon
country by right Of discovery, extend
ed our frontier to the Pacific Ocean
adding a vast and rich territory to
our domain 1t was one of the direct
causes of the acquisition of Ca lifornia
and the subsequent acquisitions OF
Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the Philip
pines are related to it.

D-,vevs. Fall to Death.

New York. Sept 1s.--A man supposed to be William S. Furisch, the driver of a newspaper delivery wagon, was thrown over the railing of the Will lIamsburg bridge. and dropped l5O feet to the stone sidewalk which borders the New York shore of the river be- meath the bridge approach. He died al- most instantly.
 The mans death came after wild runaway ride across a large part of the bridge. An automobile frightened the horse. Furisch made no attempt to jump, but leaned far forward and guided his horse past the other teams in the dangerous passageway. HIS seat was on a level with the outer guard rail of the bridge and when the wagon careened against this rail Furisch shot out of his seat with dive that carried him completely beyond the bridge par apet to the pavement below.

The soqial Democrats

Pena, Sept. is.--In the National So- ciaI Democratic Convention today the threatened parliamentary battle over various matters concerning the party newspaper organs was postponed and perhaps obviated through the adoption of a resolution referring all these mat ters to a committee of fifteen. There Is strong determination among the delegates to get rid of the systematic criminations and Pecriminations be- tween Socialist newspapers. The off, cial position of the Vorwaerts also seems doomed. Tn any case 1t Is ex- pected that a committee will thresh out all press matters behind closed doors and give to the convention the finished results of their investigation for rati- fication.
 Hermann Molkenbuhr, member of the Reichstas, made the business re- port of the National Committee. He admitted that a certain amount of las- situde had invaded the Socialist ranks and that some of the younger members of the party speak of split. Herr MoIkenbuhr said differences always ex- isted and that only their names were changed.

CROP REPORT.
Government Issues Weekly SuInmar'
 of Conditions.

ODEGEMHnEMt kbh1G0 "@G0hS
 of Conditions.
 Washington, Sept. 1s.-The weekly summary of crop conditions Issued by the weather Bureau Is as follows:
 The week has been decidedly warm over the greater part of the central valleys. gulf States and Eastern Rocky Mountain slope. A marked fea- tuFe of the week was the excessive precipitation accompanied in places by high winds in the lower Missouri Val ley, where much damage was done, es~ peciaIly in Central and Western Mis- souri and Eastern Kansas. Wet wealth CT also proved detrimental over a large part of the Middle Atlantic States and in portions of the South Atlantic and East Gulf districts, while dfouth continues over portions of Texas, Gen erally favorable weather prevailed in the Central Gulf States, Tennessee and most of the Ohio Valley and Middle At laptic States.
 While corn has experienced favorable conditions over a large part of the corn belt, late corn in the Upper Ohio and Missouri Valleys Is maturing slowly. The crop in the lower Ms souri Valley has suffered from exces- sive rains In Missouri q large part of the crop has been blown down or badly lodged, much is under water, and that Tn shock Is beginning 10 mOlu.
 Notwithstanding frequent showers in the spring wheat region. threshing of spring wheat has been general.
 While a slight improvement In the condition of cotton Is reported from Oklahoma and Indian Territory and portions of Louisiana and Northern Texas, the crop as whole over most of the belt has experienced little or no change. with tendency toward de- terioration.
 Premature opening Is extensively re- ported in the Eastern and Western dls- tricts, but only few complaints of this character are received from the cen- ing In Texas and are causing injury in is promised Picking is advancing rapidly and Is nearing completion in most fields In Southern Georgia
 Except in Kentucky. where about one-third of the crop remains to be se- cured, tobacco Is nearly all cut and housed. Moist atmosphere has not been favorable for curing in Kentucky and in New England, but in Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee the crop is cur ing nicely.
 Nearly all reports indicate a very light apple crop.
 Blight and rot in potatoes continue to be extensively reported in the prin- cipal producing States.
 Ploughing for fall seeding has been stopped by rains in the lower Missouri and Ohio Valleys and has been pre- vented by drouth in portions of the Southern States. Elsewhere this work is well advanced.
