Asylum CASE UNDER AMUSEMENT
CFrom a stan correspondent

(From a Stan Correspondent
LINCOLN July 2--(speciaL) -Governor
Mickey had Assistant Superintendent Mich
olson and Steward Peters Of the Norfolk
asylum before him this afternoon and,
with John M. Stewart as his legal adj
visor. he put them both through course
of questions, and then took the matter
Of the discharge Of the two men under
advisement. Superintendent Alden, who
has borne the brunt Of the governors dis
pleasure. failed to respond to the call of
the governor to appear. which is taken
to mean at the state house he expects to
hold onto his Job unless he is bodily dis
lodged.
What the governor said to Nicholson
and to Peters is matter mostly Of spec
ulation and what the answers Of the two
men were is also speculation, because the
meeting was executive and the press rep
resentatves were forbidden to pass the
portals into the chamber where the meet
ing was held.
At the conclusion Of the meeting DR..
Nicholson said he informed the governor
the testimony. so far as he Is concerned,
Is all in. and therefore he had no further
defense to make and no further statement
for the executive ears. That was all there
was to the meeting, he said except the
matter under Amusement.
Just previous to the meeting a telephone
message was received by the governor
from Norfolk asking II DR.. Nicholson had
resigned. To reporters Or. Nicholson said:
Il don't care anything about the place
at Norfolk. but do care something about
my reputation. and that is the reason
asked for an investigation. have dsugh-
ter who is Ill and ] have been trying to
get away to Minnesota with her to have
an opera ton performed, but did not want
TO leave until this case is settled. 1t is
probable someone thought in order to take
my daughter away I would resign rather
than be delayed longer"
During the talk DR.. Nicholson minated
II his reputation was cleared he might
resign later and not attempt to hold onto
the position.

BURLINGTON STRIKES BACK
Reduces Grain Rate and Disoontinues Ele-
walton Allowances After July s.
RETALIATEs FOR UNION PACIFlC's ACTION
Further Complications Threatened
Between Competing Lines which
May Bring About General
Rate War.

The Union Pacif1c's announcement Of the
payment of an elevation allowance to all
elevators performing the service which
would tend to return the Union Pacific cars
within forty-eight hours, is stirring the
other roads to action. The first road to
make a new move is the Burlington. c. E.
Spens. general freight agent says;
Effective July the rates for transport
Ing grain on the Burlington are reduced IA
cents per hundred from Missouri river
points to the Mississippi river and Chicago
and the payment of elevation allowances
will be discontinued from that date. The
action of the Union Pacific In allowing ele-
walton to foreign dealers as well as to local
dealers enables such dealers to pay IL
cents per hundred in excess of what dealers
on the Burlington located on common and
cross country points are able to pay, and
It is our intention to reduce our local rates
from Nebraska points to Omaha unless the
present rates on the Union Pacific are
adjusted that dealers on our lines can COM
pete with the elevator men hauling over
the Union Pacific on a parity"
Rate War Threatened.
A rate war on grain is promised by this
move OF the Burlington. Should the Union
Pacific not yield the Burlington will reduce
the rate from the points in the state and
the Union Pacific will have to meet the cut
This will continue until they are hauling
the grain for nothing and then the Bur-
lington will have the advantage of having
a Chicago line on which it can get revenue
| for the haul to Chicago.
| THE Union Pacific expects to grant this
allowance and always has expected to do
So" said Freight Manager Munroe of the
Union Pacific. Our position is unique in
! that our line ends at Omaha and we are
willing to pay that allowance to get the
quick return of our cars. We had strong
legal advice that our former position was
correct, as was decided by the Interstate
Commerce commission when all the rail-
roads fought us some time ago and our new
move is simply on legal grounds to
strengthen our position by removing the
only possible weak spot. The situation is
one to which careful consideration must be
given and an attempt made 10 solve It
equitably. The other roads are in a pc
euliar position, having decided to cancel
the allowance east Of the river they can't
consistently establish It to apply west of
the river"

office at the institution was doing splendid
work and at this time the boys were turn
ing out a seventy-two-page magazine each
month, besides a weekly paper, and doing
all the printing for the institution. Mr..

capacity to do considerable more printing,
but owing TO the prejudice against an in

printing he did not bid on any of the state

in a Bodie restaurant and then in Gold

prespector who went out with the re-

located claims which have since been
proved up and sold to an Eastern syn
dictate for $4,000. Miss Guerra g
share of the proceeds was 100000. The

The Democratic party in Nevada,
not many campaigns since, made the
following declaration in its platform:
"The so-called silver party of Ne
vada is especially detrimental to the
silver interests. It's state administra-
tion in the last few years has been re-
plete with scandals which are a dis
grace to the commonwealth. It's ~contin-
ued existence is an insult to the great
silver party of the nation, which, in
1896, pollod nearly six million votes
for the bimetallic cause, and it's death
would be mourned only by a few office
seekers who have maintained it in the
hope of being elected to positions which
they could not obtain from any Other
party in the state

this party, which it admits and says
has been a disgrace to the common
wealth. Our impression of the matter
is that things have gone from bad to
worse in the conduct of the state bus
mess, but, if there has been any i'm
provoment. we would be most happy
to have it called to our attention.
1t is somewhat gratifying to see
that our Democratic friends frankly
acknowledge, by their acts, that they
too are keeping the silver party in ex-
istence in order that "a few office
seekers" may have the "hope of being
elected to positions which they could
not obtain otherwise. How carefully
the Democrats have nnrsed this eds
