REED SMOoT CASE GOES OVER
Senators Pass Matter to Friday, but
May Not Vote This
Session.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-No vote was
had today In the senate committee on priv
ileges and elections on the right of Senator
Smoot Of Utah to retain his seat in the SEN
ate, chiefly because 1t developed that in the
numerous changes of dates for the meeting
Senators Hopkins and Dolliver failed to re-
ceive their notices that action was to be
taken today. Both of these senators, as
well as Senators Depew, Bailey and Frazier.
were absent. The three last named, how
ever, had left proxies. The committee will
adjourn until Friday next.
Objection to voting at the present session
was voiced by three or four senators. who
said that the railroad bill here had taken
so much of their time that they had not
had an opportunity to read the authorities
quoted by the attorneys on both sides of
the case in making their final arguments.
On this account they complained that they
were not in position to vote intelligently
Chairman Burrows and the democratic
senator's present objected to permitting the
case to go over until next session, arguing
that the senators could read the authorities
in the next week. Notices of the meeting
to be held on Friday have been ordered
mailed on Monday in order that there may
be no misunderstanding concerning it.
be present, and II all the others are in at
tendance the vote may result in tie. Sem
ator Depew has sent his proxy to the chair
man, but the committee has not consented
to accept 1t. II 1t is voted the decision will
be against Smoot. 1t Is concluded the re-
suit depends upon Senator Dolliver, who
has not made his position known.
After the committee had discussed for
some time the proposition TO defer action
on the Smoot case the Hale resolution. in
structing the committee TO inquire into the
status Of proceedings against Senator Bur
ton, was referred 10. Senator Dubois OBJ
jected strenuously to having the smoot
| case sldetracked. saying:
'If the members OF the committee think
the country is more interested in turning
out poor Burton than IN acting upon
charges against an apostle Of poiygamy,
| they are greatly mistaken"
He predicted that the committee would
hear from the country before next Friday
as the result Of the delay.

GREENE OUT OF THE RACE
Well Known Omaha Lawyer win Not Fight
for Senatorial Nomination.
CONDITIONS UNFAVoRABlE TO CANDIDACY
Admits Edward ROsewater is Logical
Candidate for Those with ROOse-
veltian Ideas-siEnincancei in
Local situation.

The senatorial situation has taken an
other step toward simplihcation by the
statement of Charles J. Greene of this
city, who had previously announced his
intention to be an avowed candidate for
the republican endorsement. that he will
not ask for a delegation. In ali the pre-
liminary estimates Mr.. Greene was fig
ured as a factor and was urged as a
possible candidate upon whom the oppo-
sition to Edward Rosewater might CEN
ter Following closely upon the announce
ment by G. w. wattles that he would
not enter the senatorial race, the with
drawal Of Mr.. Greene has added signih-
canoe. Mr.. Greene was interviewed in his
law Offices in tho New York Life building
and answering direct question said:
II shall not undertake to put up a dele
cation or go to any fight for the nomina-
ton. 1t is too expensive a luxury.
Mr.. ROsewuter the Logical Candidate.
I'm coming TO this decision / do not ig-
more the fact that Edward Rosewater is
the logical candidate for the senate. He
has advocated for a generation the pol
icies and principles that are now
being invoked by President Roosevelt
in the battle with corporate in
fiuences. In this respect he has been con-
sistent in all these years, and while he
has brought about and to him many per
sonal animosities through his antagonisms
ehere is a conviction that ne has been
| consistent. 1t must also be recognized that
there is feeling Of complacency in Doug
las county and Omaha and this being 50
here it may be assumed to be so out ir
the state. l do not regard Mr.. RosewateI
as belonging to the radical school of La
Toilette and Cummins, but from his care
ful study of corporate questions and dis
cussion of them in his busy lifetime he
more nearly approaches the Rooseveltiar
/ idea. He is a man of wider influence thar
| the state and ought to take his place II
the event Of his nomination and election
to the senate as leader and advocate
OF the rights OF the common people.
I'm saying these things OF Mr.. Rose
water should also say that DO not en-
dorse his views on many questions, bu
am more in accord with the more con
seryative elements Of the republican party
1 think these problems in the future car
be settled along conservative lines rathe
than in the wholesale assault on business
institutions. do not like the spirit tina
arraigns a man of his party because of hi

TO BE TRIED AGAIN.

In message received early last week
by Geo. Hart, court reporter, Judge
Chester A. Fowler, of Portage, stated
that he had upheld the petition of those
in favor of the establishment of the
Dancy drainage district. After the petit
TONERS had been given unfavorable de-
cisions in the circuit and supreme
courts they changed their plains The
directors claimed that in carrying out
the original plans Rice lake would be
drained and the Eau Pleine river rem
oered useless in a commercial way.
The petitioners then amended their
plans so as to provide dams, which they
think will preserve Rice lake and allow
the Eau Pleine TO be used for driving
logs, etc. As Judge Silverthorn pre-
sided when the case was heard before,
he this time called in Judge Fowler,
and the case was presented to him two
weeks ago. The directors claimed that
as an adverse decision had already been
rendered, both in circuit and the
supreme court, the petitioners had no
right to make any changes and bring
the case into court again and that the
case can not'be -sried Judge Fowler
holds that it can be heard again, as
amended, and will be here on the bench
some time next month, when testimony
will be taken.

WILL COMPLETE WORK SOON.

1t is expected that by the end of the
week or early next week all of the thirty
wells will have been driven at the
pumping station. About two-thirds of
the entire number have been fully COM
pleted, screens attached and tested
All which have so far been tested prove
satisfactory. The work has been re-
tarded some of late owing to the soil
condition not being favorable. A crew
is employed steadily in digging trenches
in which TO lay the connecting pipes,
but the work is not moving along as
fast as desired owing to the fact that a
sufficient force cannot be engaged, even
at better wages than is prevailing in
other lines of labor. Owing to the con-
dition of the water in the mains being
rather cloudy at present a great many
people visit the wells daily, while they
are being tested and get supply of
water from the new source, which they
take home for drinking purposes. 1t
