(From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Frank Atwood of Butte, Boyd county, has called upon Senator Millard to Intercede with the secretary of the fh- térior in behalf of the interest which he | hes In Jands in Nebraska, upon which he has pald $700 and where he has broken 100 acres. These lands are known a sthool indemnity lands, about which so much has been sald recently. At the last sesslon of the Nebraska legislature a law was passed providing that in lleu of thesc s¢hool indemnity lands holders of them might take other lands Instead. = With this act of the leglslature before him and a statement of the case, the secretary of the Interior made a ruling to the effect that the department would acquiesce In the terms of the Nebraska state law and would relegate the question to the State Board of Educational Lands and Funds for such redress as the board might -decide was just. It is understood here that the board met Tuesday and took action fa- vorabie to the settlers. This case has aroused considerable In- terest In the state, In view of the seem- ing confiict of authority between the state and general government over the lands in question, and about twenty cases have grown out of the dual sale of land, tying matters up considerably. This action on the part of the secre- tary of the Interior, however, clears the way for settlers who innocently went for- ward with their improvements under the homestead provisions of the gemeral law, 50 that instead of having to apply to w.-n- ington for redress, all Nebraskans tected may apply directly to the board Lincoln for satisfaction.

He was fol- lowed by Congressman Burke along similar lines. While no action was taken, in the absence of Chairman Hull, it is under- stood the bill will be favorably reported out of the committee as soon as the chair- man returns. It is belloved the bill will pass the house without any serious oppo- sition. Frank H. Young of Broken Bow, celver of the land office, was in Washington today on his wey home from New York.

Explanation by Physician. The high grade physiclan always stands ready to gulde one’s habits and prevent disease, even if by that means, he loses many a fee. Food and drink are important factors relating to health. Dr. Wm. R, Blackwood, 82 N, 234 St., Philadelphia, Pa., writes on the subject and remarks about the need. of some warm drink for breakfast, but deprecates the use of coffee because of its effect on the health. He refers to the fact that: the heat of a warm breakfast beverage i important in causing the necessary alvine evacuation which should lavariably follow breakfast. “Personally, 1 had been quite nervous from overwork for a time and neither coffee nor tea seemed to agree with me, consequently I looked around for some other pieasant breakfast beverage, for # long time without success, until I got hold ot the article under consideration (Postum). This proved pleasing to the taste and was also very strengthehing. Its flavor is 80 nearly that of a really good coffee as to completely take its place after begin- ning its habitual u: I attach much im- portance to that word ‘habitual,’ for if you desire to have all of the benefits cen- tered in this article you must stick to' it right along. 1 have proved to my own satisfaction that Postum is all right persevered in.

The Doctor concludes his letter with this statement, “Belleving that a letter from a physician, who has studied dietetics many years in different climates and among dif- ferent races, would be of some value, I write to do what I can to further the use of this efMclent product, which surely must be of great advantage to lnvalids as well as to the gemeral community,” f effect.

Many of these changes were pending, only two out of the seven- teen submitted having been disposed of yet. The delegates were tardy in assembling and it was long after the session had been called to order before the auditorium and galleries were even comfortably filled. The opening prayer was delivered by Mrs. William A. Smoot of Virginia. The con- vention sang ‘“‘America,” and after the reading of yesterday’s session the proposed amendments were taken up.

DOUBTS RICHT OF CONGRESS Wallingten Questions Validity of the Pond- ing Philippine Bill. SENATOR STEWART DEFENDS THE MEASURE Maryland Statesma Reached the Parting of Ways and Takes In with His Party. Says He Has the WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.—It was agreed by the senate today that a final vote on the Philippine tariff bill and the pending endments should be taken next Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock, The only stipulation made by the minority was that the last day's debate should be devoted to speeches not exceeding fifteen minutes in duration. Senator Wellington ot Maryland spoke to- day in opposition to the pending bill and Senator Stewart of Nevada in support of the measure, Mr. Wellington's address covered the Philippine question generally. He set forth his well known views forcefully. He always bad been a republican, he sald, a believer in protection, a supporter of the gold stand- ard currency, but he had come to the part- Ing of the ways with his party in 1888, when it ““developed its imperialistic tendencies.” Questions Right of Congress. He opposed the pending tarift bill because he did not think congress had the right to enact legislation by which people were taxed without representation and governed without their consent. Mr. Steward made a brief legislative argument in support of the authority of congress to hold the Phil- ippines and provide a proper.government for their inhabitants. From the beginning of the war in the Philipplues, Mr. Wellington insisted, it was evident that it would continue until the bitter end—that is, until the Filiptnos be subjugated or absolutely exterminated. Passing incidentally from the Philippines to Cuba, Mr. Wellington referred to the battle of Santlage, where the Amerlcan squadron was under the command of Rear Admiral Sampson, but was ‘“led by the Maryland hero, Admiral Schley. (Applause in one of the galleries. “From that moment, end was won. Admiral Schley commanded the vessels of the American squadron in that engagement. He stood in the midst of that battle, and won out as no hLattle was ever won before, but the administration has been as unjust to him as it has been to the Cubans and Filipinos. He hae not re- celved that meed of prajse and credit that belongs to him, but an effort, has been made to besmirch him and to detract from his character and from his truth and bravery.' Refeis to Talk with McKinley, Mr. Wellington referred incidentally ' to hig conferences with the lato President Mc- Kinley concerning the ratification of the treaty of Paris. He went over the whole situation with the president and made piain to him that ‘he (Wellington) would never vote for any propoeition which contemplated the perma- nent occupation of the Philippine islands by the United States. He maintained that our victories in the Spanish war had in- duced a reversal of the poliey of more than a hundred years. He charged that Aguinaldo had been captured by methods unworthy of the American army, and “‘com- pelled under duress” to lesue a proclam: tion advising his countrymen to surrender. In discussing the oriental situation, Mr. ‘Wellligton ‘indicated a’belief that a' great war was imminent, probably\between Rus- 6la and Japan, and due, ‘very likely, to the breaking up of China Mr. Stewart of Nevada addressed the senate in advocacy of the administration's Philippine policy. Hé declared it was un- true, absolutely, that there was any inten- tion on the part of this government to insti- tute a colonial government in the Philip- pines, or to “enslave the natives.” he continued, “the Budget of Bills. At the conclusion of Mr. Stewart's spoech the tariff measure was laid aside for the day and the following bills were passed: Appgopriating $200.000 for a public build- ing at Deadwood, 8. D.; appropriating §5, 800 for the improvement of-the legation bullding owned by the United States at Tokio, Japan; to authorize Lieutenant Commander A. C. Baker, U. 8. N.; Frank W.

Partridge of Kenesaw Commits Buicide. SHORTAGE RECKONED FIFTEEN HUNDRED When Postofoe Inspector Deteots Em- berzlement, Culprit Sends But- let Throwsh His HASTINGS, Neb; Feb. 18,—(Special Tele- gram.)—Postmaster Louls B Pastridge of Kenesaw committed suielde at 13:30 o'clock this afternoon by shooting himself in the head. He dled almost instantly.. The cause of Partridge's taking his own life tributed to the government's claim that he was nearly $1,500.short in his accounts. When Mr. Partridge went to the post- office this morning he seemed cheerful, but when a postoffice Inspector took charge of his books he showed.gonsiderable agitation and his nervousness . increased as the in- pection continued. He went home at noon and, going direct to his bedroom, he placed a 82-caliber revolver directly behind bis right ear and pulled the trigger, He dled a few minutes later. Tt is regarded as strange {hat so large a, shortage could exist for any length of time in so small an;pffice. As Mr. Partridge was not a drinking man, nor one who was known to speculate, it {s > myatery to his most intimate friends what he did with the money. At the coroner’s inquest this afternoon a verdict was remdered stating that L. B. Partridge met death by his own hand. The deceased had been postmaster at -Kenesaw six years and at,one time was county clerk of Adams county. He leaves a wite and one son. — Holllday Rengminated fo?
