No Disorder and No Indication

SembIy Election.

With the American Army of Oc-
cupation, Jan. 26.-Voting for dele
gates to the Prussian national as
sembly took place today in the re-
gion occupied by the Americans.
There was no disorder and no in
dication of bolshevik influence.
1t was just one week since the
election of delegates to the German
national assembly, and the results
were similar. The indications are
that the old centrist, or Christian
peoples party, is leading This is
easily accounted for by the strong
support of the church in the Rhine
land, although the social democratic
party also has polled heavily.
Reports from the interior con-
corning the entire Prussian vote in
dicates that there is possibility of
the majority socialists receiving a
majority in the Prussian assembly.
The Instructions to the American
troops today were identical to those
of last Sunday. They were ordered
to be merely onlookers and prevent
disorders.

Gamer Says Germany
Should Be Admitted
to League Of Nations

Urbana III, Jan. 26-Prof. James
w. Garner, head of the department
Of political science at the University
of Illinois, in an address here today,
expressed the opinion that Germany
should be admitted to the league of
nations.
IF Germany is left out there will
gather around her a group of friend
" states and she will become the
center of intrigue that will be a
constant source of danger" said Pro-
fessor Garner. "We win have the
world divided in two and as for
those who say that Germany's word
does not mean anything, we must
remember that the Germany of to-
day is not the Germany of 1914, CON
trolled by the kaiser and the crown
prince. There is every rehson to be-
lieve that democratic Germany may
be relied uuon TO keep her word"

Lessen the Danger of
Influenza

You can't tell when a cold win
turn into influenza. But all doctors
agree that colds are forerunner of
influenza and if the bowels are kept
open the danger is vastly less.
Here is the reason. If food-waste
is allowed to lie in the system, it
ferments and fills the blood with
dangerous poisons which the kid
neys, lungs and skin pores struggle
to throw off. If cold attacks then,
there is nothing to stop it. Even
medicines lose their full effective
ness because of the overwork, de-
handed.
Colds can Easily Turn Into Influ-
enza and Pneumonia.
The first question your doctor
will ask is, "How are your bowels"
He knows the vital Importance of
a thorough laxative, one that viii
completely clean the system.
Get a bottle of SALINoS from
your druggist. This is thoro lax
alive which win completely empty
the entire digestive tract, including
the lower bowels, where most pois-
ons are formed. SALINOS is really
pleasant to take, pleasant in taste
and in action.
SALINOS is not expensive, bot
tie for a Quarter at your druggists
larger sizes, Fifty cents and a
Dollarl.

deny it and would offer no explana-

pardons were issued. and gave it
as his opinion they SHOULD have

BILL FOR

Ex-Fire Commissioner RidgelI
Wants Money Back for
Lease Declared Invalid;
Others Put in Claims.
From a staff Correspondent.

Lincoln, Jan. 26.-(Speeial.) lex
Fire Commissioner w. S. Ridgell has
filed bill for $i,b65 with the house
committee on claims as a refund OF
the check given by him to the board
Of educational lands and funds in
the summer Of 1917, when his COM
pany bid $1,000 bonus for a lease
on certain potash lakes in Sheridan
county. The amount asked for in
cludes interest during the time in
tervening.
The lease was subsequently de-
clared invalid by the state supreme
court and at the special legislature
session last spring a new law was
enacted. Under the provisions of
this law the board undertook to ex-
ecute a second lease to Ridgell's
corporation but it was ehjoined from
so doing by T. L. Briggs, who is
now representing Sheridan and Box
Butte counties in the Legislature.
Claims for Legal Services.
Dexter T. Barrett and the law firm
of Thompson & Barrett have three
claims aggregating $l,700 for legal
services performed as special coun-
sci for Grant L. Shumway, former
state land commissioner, in litiga-
ton arising in connection with the
office.
The estate of the late Cap. E. j.
Murfm of Lincoln is asking 81, 500
in payment for legal services con-
nected with procuring title to the
national guard rife range at Ash
land.
All three members Of the state
board of control are asking the
claims committee to reimburse them
for funds which they spent to Sc
cure their official bonds. Commits
sioners Holcomb and Gerdes ask
500 each and Commissioner May
field requests $3.50. Two years
ago the legislature refused to APP
propriate for any official bonds ex-
cept that of the state treasurer and

ROOM SCHOOL IN
STATE IS TO co
Bill Is Up to Redistrict the
State and to Provide
Means of Trans
pOrtation.
From q sac CORRESPONDENT.

Lincoln, Jan. 26.-(Special.) - To
fedistrict the state Of Nebraska for
school purposes, enlarging the
school districts so as to provide two
or three rooms and as many teach
ers for each school is the plan which
will be proposed in a bill being
drawn by Representative Jacobs Of
Custer county and which will be in
troduced in the house in the next few
days.
I'VE want to get away from the
olIe-room country school and to
give the farmers children a better
chance" said Mr.. Jacobs. This can
be- done by throwing rs or so sec
tons Of land in one district, estab-
fishing a school with several teachers
and providing means to transport
the children to and from the school.
The size of the district of course
will vary according to local condi-
tons and the density of the popula-
ton"
Two years ago the Oils bill was
passed incorporating the same plan
but making it optional with the dis
tricts and as a result not single
one took advantage of it. Before the
law can be put into effect, the Oils
bill provided, IS per cent of the prop
erty owners had to approve it.
The Jacobs bill will make the re-
districting mandatory. County lines
will be disregarded in the formation
Of the larger districts where they
eanpot be conveniently followed.
The Custer county man is still
undecided as to whether the reds
tricting should be done by the local
people or bya representative of the
state superintendent's office.
