WIRE OUT TO GET JOHN LIN
(From a staff CorrespondentO )

LINCOLN, Jan. 2s-(Special.)- big
democratic pow-wow will be held about
February 20, il not on that date, and it will
be held in Lincoln.
Congressman Hitchcock having failed to
secure Governor Harmon as the attrac-
tion, the date was postponed from Feb
ruary s, which had been practically agreed
upon, and invitations have been sent TO
Joseph w. Folk former governor of Mis-
souri,, and John Lind, former governor and
congressman of Minnesota to be the
stellar speakers. Whatever date viii suit
them around February 20 win be the date
OF the gathering, as the Lincoln hotel has
said such a date would suit 1t.
Thomas s. Allen, brother.in-law to Mr..
Bryan, seems to have the affair in charge
and at the meeting he will endeavor to
bring together all factions Of the party
and map out the program for the campaign
and select a paramount issue. Whether
w. j. Taylor of Custer county, who has
announced his candidacy for congress in
the Sixth district when Mr. Allen was
laying the wires for Judge Dean to have
that honor, will be invited to speak, Will
be one Of the first questions to be decided
by those who have the matter in charge.
Should Senator Ransom and Mr. Taylor
be pitted for joint debate, the committee
realizes that it viii be easy to secure n
crowd even II the harmony will be little
shy.

BOOST for Thompson.

One OF the objects of the meeting will
be to boost along the candidacy Of w. H.
Thompson for United States senator. There
seems no doubt now that the Little
Giant" is the preferred candidate OF at
least portion Of the Bryan management,
and IL any Nebraskans get on the pro-
gram one of them Is liable to be the Grand
Island statesman Mr. Bryan. so some OF
his close associates say, feels that he is
under very lasting obligations to Mr..
Thompson and inasmuch as he failed To
land him as delegate to the Denver con-
vention the time is ripe to help him &C.
cure the nomination for senator So
Thompson stock probably will go up at
the coming meeting.
George w. Berge will take advantage
Of this opportunity to see what chances
he will stand as a candidate for the SEN
ate or for governor. Mr.. Berge has dis
eussed his proposed candidacy with several
parties and he has been advised to get
into the race for governor, The former
nominee has not yet decided what he
will do
Mr.. Bryan may send some word to the
meeting that he is not a candidate for
United States senator and he may not,
with the chances favorlng the not.

NEW YORK. Dec 23.-The records of
American life, and more especially of

many insane asylums of the country, is
the opinion of DR.. Allan Steven Starr
who addressed the Academy of Medi.

too intensely, that we feel too keenly.

The meeting was called 10 discuss the
prevention Of insanity, on the theory
result of comparatively trivial causes,
which. if their sequels had been wisely
foreseen, might have been checked be-
fore they became irremediable.
DR., Albert Warren Ferris president
OF the state lunacy commission, esti.
mated that almost half the cases OF in
sanity under observation in state hos
pitals, were the result of loose living
and nervous strain.
Homer Folks, secretary Of the State
Charities Aid association. emphasized
this relation between loose living and
insanity, a relation, he said, insuffi,
GENTLY understood, and one which it is
planned to make palmer to laymcn in
a s"ecial series of articles for general
distribution.
In The last ten years, said DR.. Ferris,
while the population of the state has
increased 47,6 per cent. the number of
insane has increased 1899 per cent,
making a total of 1869 mentally de
ranged persons now in The state. Nearly
half of these were of foreign birth,
Twenty eight per cent bad been driven
mad by alcohol and drugs. Discussing
a plan Of campaign, Secretary Folks
said that 1t would be much similar to
that employed in the fight against
tuberculosis.

The reduction is the same as that an
nounced by the Utah Fuel company
last Monday and simply means that
the Salt Lake City Commercial club
special committee has secured the re-
ductlon which it asked for nearly two
months ago. Quietly and without any
brass band or trumpet effects, this com.
mlttee went about securing a reduction
of the price of coal in this city. A
number Of meetings were held by the
committee with officials of the railroad
and coal companies. These meetings
were followed by conferences between
the railroad and coal companies of
6cials aud the higher officers of both,
with the result that last Monday n re

Fuel company which is now followed
by the official announcement of the
Union Pacific Coal company.

bonn bard the coal companies with false
figures, nor did they attempt to dis

evident that they succeeded, in show
ing to the coal companies that it would
be well to reduce the price Of coal,
They presented the cold facts of the
situation and the companies took the
matter under consideration and later
granted the reduction asked for. This
committee was composed of well known
business men who went at the matter
in business way Never claiming
credit for what did not belong to them,
and even now that the reduction has
been secured. this committee is not
posing before the public as great bene-

knowledge that they have accomplished

big noise as to what they have done.
Those, however, who know what has
