That the cutter Bear came within

has Just become known. When she

Captain Kleinschmidt OF the p. j.

way to try to reach st. Petersburg
from Boring sea by way OF the water
around the north coast OF Siberia. The
story Of this attempt was published In
the Nugget before but the names of
the cutters are now given for the first
time and also the names Of the COM
manders who will receive n world wide
fame should they succeed. Captain

Of his trip since he left Nome:

Of the N. e. passage. Then we pro-
ceeded into the Arctic \and ut Cape

a good rudder helped US to get into

GOSSIP FROM STATE CAPITAL

Impeachment of Governor Sulzer by
che New York legislature recalls Ne.
braska's contribution to the record OF
other governors of American states
who have been impeached.
David Butler. first governor OF the
state, was impeached by the lower
house of the legislature, March l,
1871, found guilty by the senate June
/, and removed from Office. or the
seven impeached governors in 137
years history, he was one OF three
found guilty.
Curiously enough. Kansas and Ne.
braska were the only states north Of
the old Mason Dixon line, until the
present, which had impeached their
governors.
As in the case Of Governor Sulzer,
the troubles Of Governor Butler were
house impeached him on several
house impeached him n severali
counts. One charged msappropria.
tion OF $4,000 of state funds and on
this alone was he found guilty. Others.
upon which he was acquitted, charged
that he had arranged with purchasers
of state lands and with contractors on
state buildings. whereby he received
part of the amount involved In the
transaction. Several such incidents
centered about the construction Of the
old state university, the building
which Is still the main university hall.
The house preferred it's charges on
March 1, 1871. The senate convened
as a court OF Impeachment March 6
and cited Governor Butler to appear
March Z. Managers of the case for
ahe house were ]. c. Myers, ]. f.
Doom and DeForest Porter, with Ex-
perience Estabrook as counsel. Gov.
ernor Buffers counselors were Clin-
ton Briggs, John I. Redick md T. M.
Marquette. The president OF the sen.
ate could not be present and resigned.
whereupon Senator Isaac +. Hascall
of Omaha was elected president to
preside during the trial.
After six weeks dreary testimony,
the senate found Governor Butler
guilty Of misappropriatng the $4,000
of state funds. the vote being 3 to 8.
Ut was declared that he had taken
this amount out OF funds from the sale
of public lands and had used 1t In the
construction Of a $4,000 mansion in
