COMMISSIONS SENATOR Governor Sa Says He Will Re- move No OMeeholders Except for Caune~Clerienl Force Continunes, LIICOLN, May 1.-(8pecial.)—The cere- mony by which Ezra P. Savage was inaug- urated governor of Nebraska today was simple to an extreme. The incoming and outgolug kovernors met in the executiv office about 10 o’clock this morning. Im- mediately, and without any formality ernor Dietrich signed his name to the res- fgnation prepared in his office yesterday. This document was then taken across the hall to the secretary of state and was ac- copted by that official. Mr. Savage was then told of the acceptance. He walked into the private office of the governor's de- partment and entered into the discharge of bis dutles as chief executive of the state. Governor Savage's first official act was the signing of the senatorial commission for Senator Dietrich. This was done with the pen used by the former governor In writing bis veto messages and the pen was formally presented to Senator Dietrich after the commission had been signed. Senator Dietrich will remain in the city until the latter end of the week, when he will g0 to Hastings. About June 1 he will k0 to Washington and will probably make his headquarters there during the summer. Nemovals Ouly for Cause. “I will remove no officeholder, man, wo- men or child, except for cause,” said Gov- ernor Suvage this afterncon when ques- tioned concerning the policy he would gur- wue. All appointees of my predecessor will be allowed to hold their offices so long as they do their duty. But T intend to watch all of them and in any case of misconduct 1 will fire them on sight. As long as every- one satistactorily fills his place there will be no trouble.” The present ernor's office clerieal force in the gov- will continue to serve under Governor Savage. Mr. H. C.

DES MOINES, May 1.—(Special)—The | people of lowa never before prepared such | United States minister to China, Hon. Ed- win H. Conger. There are features about this incident which make it unique and in- teresting beyond all others, In the eyes of many lowa people Mr. Conger is comin home something of a hero and almost a martyr. He will be welcomed because of his worth as 4 man and because of his conspicuous services as the representative of his country at a trylng time, but also be- cause circumstances for which Mr. Conger 1s in no way responsible have caused thou- sands to look to bim as a political leader in the state campaign of this year. Edwin H. Conger has been minister to China for a little more than three years. He was transferred from Brazil and re- luctantly went to the more responsible, and s It has proved, more dangerous post at Pekin, He took his family with him—a cultured and sensible wife, a daughter and Miss Plerce. For the first year Mr. Conger confined himself to making a study of the great Oriental problem. Two years ago the Chinese empire visiting the American consulates and other places, durlng which time his family returned to lowa for a visit After his return to Pekin Mr. Conger fre- quently gave expression in letters to his friends of a fear that there was trouble ahead for the Americans In China. It was a year ago that the situation became criti- cal and the danger real On May 19, 1900, an event occurred which startled the world. This was the attack by Chinese people on the Christian village of Lai Sun, situated about seventy miles from Pekin. There were seventy-three na- tive Christians massacred M sters Prompt to 3 The ministers of the forelgn powers in | Pekin promptly addressed a note to the | tsung 1i yamen demanding suppression of the rioters. Minister Conger immediately reported to Washington that the situation was dangerous and the administration or- dered Rear Admiral Kempft with his flag- ship Newark to proceed to Taku. The Amer- icans landed a small force under Captain McCalla and joined the international col- umn for the relief of Pekin, which ecity had been besieged by the Boxers. The force was permitted to enter Pekin and for a short time quiet was restored, but in June rioting broke out afresh. June 10 Admiral Seymour, with 2,000 troops, started to repair the railroad to Pekin and were soon cut off. On June 17 the forts at Taku opened a bombardment of the fleets | @ hearty welcome as that for the returning | Minister Conger took a long journey through | Kinley. They were old friends in congress and have the utmost confidence in each other In the meantime some republicans of lowa seem to be planning to make Mr, Conger goversor of the state. The movement is a pecullar one. On the surface it appears to be largely a movement to escape from the dilemma of being forced to choose be- tween a large field of candidates, no one of whom seems to possess the undivided con- fidence of the people of the state. Before it became known that Minister Conger was coming home on a visit he was asked by cable it he would accept a nomination for governor. He replied that he would, but would not make a fight for it It was understood that he would prefer to return to the state to live, provided he could secure the nomination for governor. Later two or three candidates for governor were announced, and some of them were tm personal friends of Conger. He was again cabled as to his position and notified that several candldates were in the field He replied that he was not a candidate for governor. Since his return to San Fran- clsco he has repeatedly reiterated his posi- tion—not a candidate, but willing to accept it nominated. The first candidate to come out for gov- ernor was George D. Perkins of Sioux City. This was followed by the announcement of A. B. Cummins, Sidney A. Foster, W. F. Harriman, J. H. Trewin and John Herrlott Mr. Cummins has long been a close friend of Conger and Mr, Herriott has always been very friendly with the minister. In fact all of the candidates are men who have supported Conger and admired him. Conger would have been cheerfully supported by any or all of them if he had announced himself a candidate. But despite that each and every one of the six candidates has been working hard to secure supoort for the nomination, the movement to make Conger the nominee over all of them has been stead- fly gaining ground. Ready t» Tarn te Co mer. There is no misunderstanding the situa tion. In almost every county of the state there are men ready to turn to Con- ger for governor. Mr. Perkins has already withdrawn in favor of Conger and declares his bellef that Conger will be the right man to nominate. It is believed that all the other candidates will do the same, un- less, possibly, it is Cummins and Herriott. It the Conger movement should develop | great strength at once it is more than probable that he would be nominated by acclamation. It is planned that on Friday of this week a reception will be given Mr. Conger here in his home city by his closest friends, at which there will be speaking, and Minister Conger 1s expected to glve his friends some- thing more definite as to his plans for the future. It he signifies a desire that his friends shall work for his nomination for governor be may be nominated. The reception at the state capitol on Friday evening will be unique, in that it will be the first time in the history of the state that the state capltol will be used for am unofcial reception.

They were not allowed to participate In any of the ralding and looting which char- acterized the conduct of soldiers from some of the Eurpean powers. Minister Conger did_everything in his power for peace and to keep the United States from appearing to be even the allles of the other powers, except for the purpose of restoring order and for protection of American Interests in China. Never for once did he permit his country to be placed In the attitude of seeking the destruction of China. There has been a good deal of contro- versy over the question whether Conger and the War and State departments were in entire harmony during the trying times which followed the relief of the lega- tloners.
