part in the liberation not only of Peru

1t was on the 2Sth of July, 1921, that
General San Martin, father of his ma
tive country and of Chile, declared the
independence of Peru from Spanish
rule and sovereignty. Since the begin
ming of the 18th century, the ideas Of
liberty grown out of the American
revolution had resulted in the indie
pendence Of Venezuela, Argentina and
Chile from the Spanish rule, and in
unsuccessful movements in Peru. The
former countries obtained their indie
pendence, but Peru remained subject
to Spanish domination.

On the 9th of December, 1924, in the
battle of Ayacucho, the Peruvians de-

Spanish king and gained for Peru the

ToReduce State

Politicians Oppose Reduction
While. Southern States Get
Representatives for
- Non.Voters.

Lincoln, Jan 2o.-(Special. "A
bill to reapportior Nebraska con-
gressional districts, as made neces-
sary by federal action which pro-
vides for FIVE instead OF six Nebras-
ka congressman. will be introduced
in the state legislature Monday.
Under present plans it will not be
rushed through legislative channels.
1t will be held in obeyance until
there is no doubt but that Nebraska
will really lose one congressman.
Politicians Show Teeth.
Nebraska politicians are beginning
to show their teeth at Washington
over the attempt 10 reduce congress
men, in. ratio 10 the federal census.
State officers here this week de-
clared such procedure was absolutely
unfair, as southern states, with less
voters than Nebraska, are getting
many more representatives. While
the population of the southern states
is greater, in many instances, their
voting population is less, and, it is
argued, that by the widest flight OF
imagination southern representatives
do not attempt to represent the large
negro population which is respon-
sible for the large number of repre-
sentativeS from those states.
Vote in 1916.
In the 1916 presidential lection
there were 289,9l2 votes cast in
North Carolina against 286,l77 in
Nebraska. North Carolina with its
negro population, which is denied
suffrage, has 10 congre ssr1lan against
six for Nebraska, with threat
hanging over Nebraska's head that
there may be one less before this
session is over.
The voting population of other
southern states and the number Of
congressman representing these
states follow: &

Mystery Surrounds
Delay In Examination Of
Dead Mans Stomach

Norfolk. Neb. Jan. 29.-(Special
Telegram m.)-Authorities here were
notified late Saturday that the ex-
animation into the stomach of Gus
Bathke, Norfolk man who is be-
lleved to have died from poisonous
whisky, has been made almost i'm
possible due to the fact that the
stomach which was sent TO the
University hospital at Omaha, was
msteriously delayed in transit.
The stomach was sent from Norfolk
Sunday night and did not arrive in
the Omaha hospital until late Thurs
day afternoon. Decomposition. il is
feared, may make positive examina-
ton difficult.
News of the delay has caused
some Consideration here due to the
great local interest attached to the
case. Bathke was buried Thursday
afternoon. He died Sunday from
what was reported to have been the
result of drinking moonshine whisky
last Saturday night.
