G. Pearse of Omaha FElected a Member of Educational. Counc but on the Losing Side in m a 8taft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 3.—(Special Telegram.)— A partial victory over the so-called m chine elerent In the Nebraska State Teach- assoclation was won today by the ntl" forces when the assoclation, in gen- eral session, added a vice president to its that official a member of the executive committee. The reform movement was started Wednesday night, when an amendment to the constitution was offered providing for the election ef officers by direct vote of the members. This measure aroused vigorous opposition, and a compromise was cffected by which an amendment was to be intro- duced today to require the nominating committee to meet and make nominations $mmediately after Its election. This amend- | ment, when offered today, was declared out of order under the rules, because notice had not been given. \ It was in order, however, to create the office of vice president, and to add the in- cumbent to the exeeutive committee, and this was quickly done. It is claimed that the additional member will give the “antis” control of the executive committee, and that the executive committee has authority to require the nominating committee to trans- Act Its business Immediately after it 1s named, thus accomplishing what was in- tended by the amendment. The argument advanced 1s that under this order of busi- ness the politiclans will have no oppor- tunity for wire-pulling, because the nom- inations will be made by the committee as ®oon as it can get together. C. G. Pearse of Omaha was in the conventlon for the first time this morping and took an active part iIn the fight, but on the losing side. The act creating the office of vice pre: ident, baving uo emergency clause a tached, will not become effective untjl after officers are elected next year, hence no one ‘was elected tonight to fill the position. The convention came to an end tonight with & general session at the Auditorium. The address was by Chancellor Jesse of the Uni- versity of Missourl. Just before adjourn- ment Superintendent French of Hastinge the newly elected president, was introduced to the people assembled. The general session this morning was the best attended since the convention began. The Doane Euterpean Glee' club started the proceedings with a vocal selection, after Which the divine blessing was invoked by Dr. H. O. Rowlands of this city. President W. M. Beardshear of the:National Toeach- ers’ assoclation addressed the assemblage on “The New Spirit In Culture With Agri- culture.” Buperintendent Gregory of Crete and Superintendent McKinnon of Exeter spoke on “Tralni for Citizenship.” After four ballots had been taken the nominating! committee this morning agreed upon a list of officers and its recommend: tion was ratified by the assoclation in gen- eral session.

Osbori in a far-off land while exerclsing the dutles of consul general at Apia, Samon. He was identified with the administration of justice In this county for more than thirty years; he attained a posi- tion at this bar equalled by few And sur- passed by none; he was an_ able, learned and honorable member of the profession; his efforts were always to uphold its dignity and character, and no unworthy act could “ever be charged to him in his long professionul career of ever increas:ng honor and usefulness. His high place at the bar was obtained by the exhibition of the high- est qualities of the heart and mind. In ad- dition to his high legal attainments he was the polished, cultured gentleman. No man came in contact with him without respect- ing him. As a citizen he was generous and manly, imbued with a lofty sense of honor and great dignity of personal character. He was as gentie in manner as‘he was resolute in purpose; the delight of friends and a most welcome guest in every soclal gathering. His friendship was true and fasting and greatly valued by those who possessed it. “He had the confidence of the people to a degree seldom attained by any man, and he discharged the duties of the many public offices “which he held with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of all. Therefore be it Resolved, That we deplore his death and recognize in it a grievous loss to the pro- tession and the community, and we hereby express our profound respect and esteem for him as & man of noble mind and splen- did character. That the ,community has lost a wise, painstaking ‘and reliable counsellor, a man of excellent purpose and great energy: @ nrominent citlzen who was ever actl untiring in his efforts to promote the Yeat interests of soclety and the welfare of his clients, friends and nelghbors.

F. Bentley and Other Grand Ia- landers Denounce Savage's Action, GRAND {SLAND, Neb., Jan. 3.~(Special.) ~In order to ascertaln as fairly as possible the sentiment of the community upon the pardon of Embezzler Bartley by Governor Savage, thirty-one business men and cit- izens were interviewed as they were met, the result showing a general sontiment of disapproval of Governor Savage's action. Following is the gist of a series of inter- views, as printed In the Independent to- night: C. F. Bentley—The governor urges, in de- fense of his action in pardoning Bartley, that Bartley's sentence was much more severe than the average sentence imposed upon bank wreckers. In this connection the governor should have remembered that a crime against the state 1s a crime against that organization of soclety which alone makes It possible for us to enjoy life, lib- erty and the pursuit of happiness. The gravity of such a crime Is not to be meas- ured merely by the loss in dollars and cents, nor by the immediate suffering caused by 1t Still less can the crime be palllated by the fact that the proportionate amount ot damage to cach citizen is small. No estl- mate of the gravity of such a crime is cor- rect that leaves out of consideration the fact that it is_an assault upon our civil institutions which, if unpunished or con- doned, tends to corrupt the institutions upon the existence of which our present civilization depends. Aside from these con- siderations, his argument as to the relative degree of punishment Inflicted upon embez- zlers and defaulters 1s entitled to respectful hearing. But, In his attempt to justify him- self, the governor goes to the extent :of promulgating a doctrine that is not only indefensible, but positively viclous. Be- cause some of the money had been lost by depositing it in banks that failed and be- cause some of the falled banks had as- sisted people who were financially embar- rassed, and thereby possibly relleved them trom loss and distress, he says that ‘“the problem becomes one of the people’s money, preventing the ruin of the people's bus- iness.” His assumptions in this respect, It true, are true only to a very limited extent. But even It every dollar missing from the treasury bad been lost.in an attempt to save insolvent banks and business men from dis- aster the governor's statement contains a very dangerous fallacy. The funds in the state treasury are collected from the people of the state for specific purposes, and any attempt to excuse the misappropriation of such funds by reason of the fact that certain inhabitants of the state have been bene- fited or cven saved from failure thereby would open the way to endless embezzle- ments and defalcations. It is deeply to be regretted that the governor of the state of Nebraska should consider his position such a8 to need the support of such a fallacious defen: W. A. Prince—I don't think the pardon ought to haye been granted. The sentence might have been a little excessive, but, in view of the fact that Bartley never made any explanation as to what had become of the funds, he should mot have been par- doned so early. Bartley has not shown what fe held out as an extenuation of the pardon, that he tided over anything during the panic. Rev. W. W. Carr—I have not read the accounts and am not In position to give any opinion. Jack Gallagher—It nearly made me sick when I read of it. It's a shame. H. P. Tucker—I can’t see how It's a good thing. The pardoning of the big thieves is all wrong. There was no justification for it whatever. A. L. Barneby—Well, it T had been there he would not have been pardoned. W. H. Harrison—1 think it Is an outrage. There isn't any excuse for the liberation of Bartley. W. H. Platt—I approve of the pardon And 1 mean just what I eay. In fact, I don’t belleve it does any good to keep & man In prison cver two years. George Bartenbach—I think the man has suffered enougn. Whether it s right or not —well, that s another matter. John Wallichs—I don’t belleve it was right. A. W. Sterne—I baven't read the govern- or's reasons and do mot want to express an opinion. W. H. Thompson—Savage's act is simply an, abuse of the pardoning power granted by the constitution, and an ever-living in- ducement to the violation of public trust and dieregard of publie confidence. Dr. W. B. Hoge—It may be all right, but 1 don't think eo. George D. Hetzel—It certadnly is not right. It 1s a surprise to me. E. D. Hamilton—It I8 an outright shame. It 1s putting a premium on rascality and the action ip a serious mistake. H. L. Bode—An expression of opinion will not remedy the matter. J. A, Costello—If it s true that in the hard times Bartley loaned the money to prevent a panie, and if it is not true that he had any intention of benefiting himself, 1 do not think that he is as much a public criminal as he is a public benefactor. G. B. Bell—I think -the actlon the most outrageous ever perpetrated. C. G. Ryan—I don't think I would have let him loose until he had told where the money was A. C. Mayer—I haven't any opinion. T. 0. C. Harrison—The pardoning and commuting power i in the governor and he no doubt finds suficient reason for his ac- tion. F. W. Ashton—It {8 a surprise, coming at this time, though I expected it before. the Savage term expired. J. H. Woolley—The pardon will have a bad effect on the morals of the state, D. Ackerman—I give Governor Savage credit for the courage of his convictions. A. C. Lederman—I know one thing, the taxpayers foot the' bill. 0. A. Abbott, Sr.—[ am of the opinion that it was just ta Mr. Bartley and just to the state. " Fred Hedde--I am greatly opposed to this action of the governor. Governor Savage's attempted justification is only wild talk. A. W. Buchheit—I don't know but that it's all right under the circumstances. H. w. McLaughlin—You know how my vote at the convention (republican state). I haven't changed my mind a bit, The governor is off ‘his whirl Indignation at Winside, WINSIDE, Neb, Jan. 3.—(Speclal.)—An Inquiry among the business men of this community does not show a single man who fails to condemn the pardon of Joe Bartley. Great indignation Is also expressed claim of Bartley supporting the business interests of the state. In fact, the statements of Savage bave lost him what CATARRH ROBS WOMEN OF HEALTH AND BEAUTY Women All Over the United smu\ Praise Pe-ru-na for Diseases P culiar to Their Sex, Miss Mary Meehan, 54 Concord street, Lawrence, Mass., writes:* “It gives me great pleasure to tell you that today I am a mew woman. I was troubled with catarrh for twenty years, and | tried many kinda of medicine, but found no relief. Finally I wrled Peruna, and after tak- ing one bottle I felt better, and six bottles cured me entirely. Henceforth I shall never be without a bottle of Peruna." MISS MARY MEEHAN. Mrs. E. T. Gaddis, Marion, N. C., writes “Before 1 commenced to take Peruna I could ot do any hard work without suffer- ing great paln. I took Peruna and Manalin, and can say with pleasure that it has done more for me than any other medicine I have ever taken. Now I am as well as ever; I do all my own work and it never hurts me at all. I think Peruna is a great medicine for womankind.” MRS. E. T. GADDIS. Disgal d Catarrh There are a great many people who are actually invallds from 'chronic catarrh of some internal organ who have not the slightest suspicion that they are victims of this universal disease. This Is especlally true in cases of chronle catarrh of the organs In the lower part of the abdomen or pelvic organs. These organs are especially liable to catarrh, which gives rise to weakening discharges, painful irregularitles, backache, bearing-down pains, smarting and throbbing, with a host of other symptoms pecullar to weak per- sons of both sexes, but occurring much more frequently in women, when it is called female weakness. There are a multitude of women, espeol- ally housewives, and all other women obliged to be on their feet continually, who are wretched beyond description, simply because thelr strength and vitality ‘s sapped away by catarrhal discharges. Peruna 1s such a specific for such cases that when patients have once used it they can never be induced to quit it until they are permanently cured. It begins to relieve the disagreeable symptoms at once. The backache ceases, the trembling knees are strengthened, the appetite restored, diges- tion made perfect, the dull headache is stopped and the weakening drains arc gradually cured. These results certalnly follow a course of treatment with Preuna. Miss Louise Mahon, 3 Glen Bailie street, Toronto, Ont.,, Canada, Secretary of the King's Daughters and Secretary of Lady Maccabees, writes: “About a year ago 1 was so run down that I bad to take to my bed. A friend ad- visel me to try Peruna and In two weeks I was out of bed and in a month I perfectly well. I now find that my health {s much more robust than formerly, so that 1 take Peruna once or twice a month and keep well.” MISS LOUISE MAHON. Ask Your Druggist for a Free Peruna Almanac.
