lodge departed for the east over the Union
Pacific Friday noon after having thor
oughly inspected the sites offered by the
local lodge for the Odd Fellows and Re-

formal meeting was held in the lodge room,
the principal address being by George L.
Loomis Of the visiting committee.
Mr.. LOOMS stated that a tract of 100
acres would be required, and thu the
lodge demanded this much land because
it was anxious to plan for an establish
ment which would be serviceable for all
time, and with land enough for adding
whatever buildings should be required in
future years. The land must be suitable
for gardening and small farming. and only
the best sites would be considered. He said
that the lodge intended putting up at first
about one building capable of housing fifty
people comfortably. and that when the de-
mand had %outgrown that, then another
building would be put up as demanded.
He said an fund for the home
had been accommodating for about twelve
years past, and that 1t now amounted to
over $25,oOo. and that there wal more than
$4,000 in the building fund.

press It is quite evident that the recent
action of the California and Nevada lesls-
latures has created a feeling among COM
mercial men and even in the official ele-
ment which is calculated to damage the
position of the United States with Japan,
which formerly was becoming steadily
stronger. Reports emsnating from CORE
spondents of Japanese newspapers, with
the exception of the .Ichi, Dempo and Jill,
have created a deep effect upon the masses
of the japanese. The newspaper bulletin
boards are continually surrounded by read
ers of the lower classes, whose serious
faces and comment show the effect of
the news contained in the dispatches from
the United States. Even among the bet
ter classes, tho japanese find 1t impossi-
bic to conceal their chagrin at the re-
sponses of the United States to Japan's
hospitality to the officers and men OF the
battleship fleet and other visitors from
America.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-President Roose-

reservations to them that the situation
would, become critical IL their states In
sisted on legislation that would be insult
ing to the Japanese, who he referred to as
acting with dignity under the strain. The
two senator's agreed to continue their ef-
forts to influence the legislatures of their
states against action OF any sort, and went
away from the White House and sent. tel
egrams to the leaders of those bodies urg-
ing postponement for the present of any
legislation.
II feel that we ought not to try to re-
sist the strong appeal Of the chief execu-
tive said Senator Flint. "I agree with
him that the time is Hinopportune for legis-
lation and am going to do what I can to
help him in his efforts. We should indefi-

blow for LINCOLN Resorts.

The supreme court today dealt a telling
blow to Ninth street resorts in Lincoln.
against which property owners have been
woging a fight for years. In a decision
handed down this n orning 1t sustained the
district court in closing by injunction the
resort OF Rose Lirkwood. located on the
borders OF the prescribed district.
The injunction was secured by a property
owner across the street from the place on
the ground II was a nuisance. The district
court sustained the injunction and an appeal
was taken to the supreme court. The court
upholds the lower court.
In the opinion the supreme court says
the place is a nuisance and It does not mat
ter whether 1t was there before the COM
planning property owner located in the
neighborhood or not. The fact that the po-
lice have allowed il 20 run and that It is
located in the designated district does not
save It, according to the court.
