The number and influence of these educational institutions have greatly in- ercased. The desirabliity of promoting them, the importance of extending the usefulness of our traveling lMbraries and the work of the Library commission, and the need ot our state and hissorical libraries at the capital have lead me to enlarge the com- mitteo or library. In a rearrangement as urged this committee should be advanced to the group comprising the state institutions. “The committes on rules has been in- creased from fivo to uine in number; the committee on fish and game from three to five. “A new committee has been created to consider matters connected with telegraph and telephone companies. The incrensed use of telephones in our towns and cities and of late among our farmers has pro- ducad a host of problems. The granting of frauchises, the rights of such companies in our streets and highways, the location of joles and wircs and the general regulation of such service are matters that require particular legislative consideration. Reform of Revenue Lawa. “Mindtul of the fact that you come to this chamber as representatives of the people Who SUpOFt our state government by con- tribution of taxes levied on their property, the majority of the members of the two ranking committees in particular have been pelocted with a view to reformative changes in our revenue laws which the people have indicated they desire.

Mr. Sibley of Pennsylvania opposed the ovarnment entering at . this time on 1 heme for the irrigation of the arid lands n the west. He belleved the whole ques- tlon was for another generation. Mr. Newlands of Nevada, an earncst.ad- ocate of the irrigation of arld lands, re- lied to Mr. Sibley. He explained the pro fslons of the bill which it was proposed to resent to the house, to show that it would ot create a charge on the public treasury. Mr. Mondell of Wyoming also defended recently formulated frrigation bill. Mr. Robinson of Indiana submitted some emarks in advocacy of the abolition of the hirty-day sick leave granted to clerks in he executive departments in Washington.

The at an early date. He explained with some minuteness the necessity for the leg tslation embodied in the bill, and concluded with an appeal to the senate and to con the Philippines. His discussion of the general Philippine question covered much of the ground that has been gone over dur- ing t past two years. Throughout he was accorded careful attention. As a conclusion of the debate for the day Mr. Bacon of Georgla sharply criti- cised the secretary of war for an alleged United States and the Philippines. A number of private pension bills were passed, also the following: Extend Work on Omaha Rridge, Extending the time for the construction of a rallway, wagon and pedestrian bridga over the Missouri river near Council Bluffs, . and Omaba, Neb., and authorizing the construction of the following bridges: Ovor the Missouri river at St. Joseph, | Mo., over the Arkansas river In Arkansas, | by the Memphis Helena & Louisiana Rail- way company, over the White river in Ar- kansas by the same company; granting (o the White River Rallroad company the Tight to construct a single railway track across United States lands in Independence county, Arkansas; extending the time for the construction of a bridge across Bayou Bartholomew In Arkansas by the Missls- sipp!

Va. Lodge Calls Up His Bill At 2 o'clogk, the end of the morning hour, Mr. Lodge, chairman of the commit- tee on Philippines, called up the Philippine tariff bill and the senate proceeded to its consideration. The effect of Mr. Lodge's motion was to make the measure the un finished business of the senate Mr. Lodge said that to discriminate fn favor of the United States on products go- ing to the Philippines would diminish the revenues and would break down the policy of the “open door.” The Unitgd States had, by its firmness and excellent diplo- macy, accomplished the establishment of that policy fn China, and China would be for years the most important market for products of the United States He excused the senate committee's re- Quction of Dingley tariff rate 25 per cent by saying the committeo had not felt it wise to make a further reduction.

METCALFE PLEADS HIS CASE Kansas Colonel Denfes the Charge of Ktlling Two Filipino P oners. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—The sub-com- mittes of the senate committee on pensions which was appointed last week to investi- gate the charges made against Colonel W. S. Metealfo, who has been appointed pension agent at Topeka, Kan., today heard Colonel Metcalfe 1 his own behalf and also received afdavits from soldlers who were members of Metcalfe's command at the time the occurrence with the responsibllity for which he Is charged, took place. The charge is that at the lattle of Caloo- can, in the Philippine island , Metcalfe de- liberately killed two Fili; no prisoners. Heo was today shown the &' lavite making this charge, but dented it " hationlly.. Ha. sald that he had at the . e of the bat- tle been a major of the Twentleth Kansas volunteers, that he remembered the sur- render of two Filipino prisoners, that he was engaged in bringing up the regiment and that he turned them over to some men in his command, with instructions to take them to the rear; that he knew of his own knowledge nothing more of the pris- oners, but that he had heard they were killed by the soldlers who had them in charge. Two or three afidavits from members of the Twentieth Kansas regiment were filed in corroboration of this statement. In one of these afdavits it was stated that the prisoners were killed by the soldlers be- cause they refused to go to the rear and were making trouble at a very critical time. Records of the War department also wera produced to show that after two investiga- tions of this charge Metcalfe had been ex- onerated. The sub-committee did mot pass upon the charges at the meeting today. POSTMASTERS IN NEBRASKA Senate Confirms Another Long List of President Roosevelt's Appotntments.

Passnge of Terminal at Home (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—(Special Tele- | gram.)—District Attorney Summers today {had an interview with Senator Teller in regard to his bill for the redistricting of the judiclal districts of the United States Summers was accompanied by Senator Mil- lard, who participated in the conference with the Colorado senator. Mr. Summers, |on behalf of the bar of Nebraska, asked that South Dakota be included in the Sev- enth circult, which would place lowa, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Miseour! In that circuit and make Omaha the principal «eat in which to hold court. The Eighth circuit would then be composed of Wyom ing, Colorado, Idaho, Utah and Montana, fixing the principal court at Denver. Under bill the principal courts in the Seventh and Eighth circuits would be held at Kansas T, but South Dakota to the Seventh cireuit Nebraska and South Dakota would con trol and the principal court would be held at Omaha, which has exceptional facilities for taking care of the circult court of the United States. nator Teller sald he was not opposed to (he idea of attaching South Dakota to the Seventh circuit, but would take some time to think over the proposi- tion. The ecnator expects to address the judiciary committee soon in behalt of his measure. Towa, Nebraskans and Irrigation BiIL Opinlon Is divided among the Nebraska delegation over the merits of the irrigation blll introduced today by Senator Hans- brough and Representative Newlands. Congressman Stark insists that as Ne- braska is @ riparian state the decision in the case of Crawford, now pending in the supreme court, will largely influence the eftectiveness of the bill. Burkett and Mercer will support the bill, as well as the whole Nebraska delegation, for that matter, when it comes to a final vote, but some of the members will endeavor to se- cure amendments that will benefit their particular sections. Congressman Shallenberger fs receiving a number of protests from merchants in his district asking him to vote against the parcels post bill on the ground that the catalogue houses of Chicago and St. Louls would more serfously than ever interfere with their local trade. Senator Millard's F rat BiN Senator Millard passed his first bill today. “And I wasn't & bit nervous,” he sald, when he came out of the senate chamber. The bill was the one authorizing the Omaha Bridge and Terminal company to.change its preseafistructure across the Missouri river to provide for the passage of rallway trains and to substitute iron for its present wooden portion, to meet the growing demands of the company. Amend- ments to the bill as reported by the com- mittee were agreed upon, one of which provides that the drawspans shall be pro- vided with an efficient mechanical motor for the rapid operation of the bridge for the passage of boats of rafts upon reas- onable eignal. Senator Gamble's bill for establishing a soldiers’ home at Hot Springs, S. D, passed the senate today without opposition. National ardsmen in Session. Adjutant General L. W.

I this con- nectlon, it may be stated, that price of corn rendere the aggregate corn crop of 1901 of more value really than perhaps ever before. “Small grain crops for the year, more eepecially fall wheat, was seldom better. The fall wheat crop was never better, both as to yleld and quality. Spring wheat suf- tered. Prices of all crops were good.
