-, THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY [AY 20, 1902 BIC FUND FOR THE SCHOOLS May Apportionment from Temporary Fund Amounts to $1.10 Per Pupil, PREDICTS DEMOCRAT WILL LEAD TICKET fames Dalhman Confident Smyth Wil Be Nominated for Governor that the Populists' Wi Endorse Him, (From a 8taft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, May 19.—(Specfal.;—The semi- Annual apportionment of funds for the pub- lic schools of Nebraska will be divided among the various counties on a basis of $1.10 for each person of school age. The amount to be divided is approximately $417,~ 500, while the school population is 377,000, This apportionment s the largest, with one exception, ever made in this state. A week Ago the authorities estimated that the fund would be of sufficient size to give about $1 tor each person of school age, but late re- turns from the county treasurers exceeded the most sanguine expectations and brought the total up to over $40,000 greater than estimated The largest fund ever apportioned in May gave about $1.20 for each person of school age. That was in 1898, when the fusion reformers strained every effort to collect back interest and back taxes, but In the following year the apportionment fell off over $100,000, the total being only $332,- uL Dahiman Pleks Smyth as Winner. James C. Dahlman, democratic national committeeman tor . Nebraska, was in Lincoln today conferring with political brethren re- garding the prospects for the party at t forthcoming fusion conventions, which will be held in Grand Island on June 24. “I am confident that a democrat will be nominated for governor,” sald Mr. Dahl man. “The indications are that the offices will be divided between the two parties, 80 that If the democrats take the head ot the ticke: the remainder will go to the populists. I have traveled over a major portion of the state and have talked with many men of our party and feel safe in predicting the nomination of C. J. Smyth for the governorship.. Will the popullsts endorse him? I feel that they would be more inclined to endorse him than any ather democrat, I am confident Mr. Bryan would not accept the nomination were it tendered to him. > “It the democrats can't land the office 1 look for the nomination of efther R. D. Sutherland or W, L. Stark. Both are active In the campaign and the populists will un~ doubtedly rally to the support of one of them.” Watkine Eulogizes Morton, Albert Watkins addresded the students of the University of Nebraska this morning on the “Distingulshing Characteristics of J. Sterling Morton.” He referred to Mr. Morton as the Joel Chandler Harris of the northwest, knowing all the folklore of the reglon. The sallent feature of his life was the appreciating and holding out of ideale. “Frank R. Stockton, Sol Smith Russell, J. Sterling Morton, Amos J. Cummings, Potter Palmer, Archbishop Corrigan, Bret Harte and Admiral Sampson constitute n 1ist that the world cannot lose without painfully missing,” declared .Mr. Watkins. The source of Morton’s strength and in- fluence conéisted in all anfmating individ- uality, powerful egoism and his fighting powers for what he thought. was right."” Continuing Mr. Watkins said in part: “Morton was not a paragon and he would havegresented..an.imputatlon .of . saintship, He ’r‘n‘oi fhé earth, flrr.-lgu.l ‘very broadly human-tempted like as we are. This fs why he could be & mentor and a powerful exemplar for human people. It is a com- mon, but sballow, observation that he al- ‘ways advocated whatever he thought right. Thi misleading and confusin, for he was a successful man and the two propositions are contradictory. Success Aud particularly his considerable busines success, demanded a' degree of prudence. Prudence is the floor walker for expgdiency. It a.rests abstract justice and requires or accep.\ the surrender of ideals which a complex soclety agrees are impracticable. High Imaginings alone will not feed and clothe a concrete family, much less sur- round them with things of beauty, and Mr. Morton: did all this, but he was an uncompromising fighter for positions he sumed and for principles he espoused. As the world loyes a fighter, especlally 3 fighter of ‘skill and prowess, he gained great prestig his humor and more than his wit. & sad loss to Nebraska, in particular 1 in of great pre- #s and pure pleasure, of pencilled beauty where our duller sight sees naught but shapes uncouth, could have been preserved.” State Asks & Continuance. County Attorney Caldwell this morning fled his sbowing in the case of Charles E. Hayward, charged with the murder of John J. Gillllan, in opposition to the r quest of Hayward's attorney for a trial at this term of court. Mr. Caldwell wants to to go over until the next term of court. and In support of his desire makes this owing: he character of the crime charged is murder in the first degree; I further state that the crime was committed in the night time at & place where there were no wit- nesses prosent and that the murderers left no clue at the scene of the tragedy; that immediately after the tragedy the county attorney's office and the polfcd force of this ety were notified and had reason to be- ABSOLUTE Genuine Carter’s Little Liver Pills.

Mr. Caldwell adds that he cannot pos- sibly secure all the testimony at this time for reasons which he cannot more fully state, bub expects to be able to do so by the fore part of mext term. He therefors asks that the case be retained and be-set for hearing at an early date next term. Library Opening May 27.

This is the first call for over $50,000 made since last December. The receipts of the treasury have been heavy during the past two months, owing par- tlally to the fact that the county treas- throughout the state have returned sums of money derived from taxation and other sources. City Attorney Strode has filed a motion for a new trial of the case wherein Judge Kolmes held that the City Board of Equali- ization had not properly ssed the prop- erty of the Lincoln Gas and Electric Light company.

FUGITIVES BACK 1N JAIL Gaynor and Greene Remanded Indefinitely to Await Developments, HABEAS CORPUS FOR RETURN TO QUEBEC Exciting Scene is Enacted in Corridor of Hotel as Result of Scheme by Friends to Rescue the Pair, MONTREAL, May 19.—Judge La Fon- talne this afternoon granted an indefinite remand in the case of Gaynor and Greene and ordered them incarcerated in the Mon- treal jall in the meantime. It is now expected that efforts will be renewed to bave them returned to Quebec on new writs of habeas corpus. When Mesers. Gaynor and Greene were brought - before Judge La Fontaine today Lawyer Taschereau, representing Gaynor, complained of the manner In which the police were acting in refusing to admit thelr lawyers or anyone else to the rooms of the accused. He demanded that the men be taken to jail. Donald McMaster, king's counsel, strongly opposed such a change and openly accused Mr. Taschereau of making_this demand to hide a plot to take the prisoners from the Montreal authorities .and back to Quebec. He had been informed on reliable author- ity, he sald, that two new writs of habeas corpus had been asked for and were lssued in Quebec on Saturday. These were to.be served on the jailer of the Montreal prison as soon ae the prisoners were within the Jail walls and this would enable their friends to take them back to Quebec.

Ten of the stoutest officers of the Montreal police force stood guard over the prisoners, and when Attorney Taschereau, the prisoner’s coun- sel, tried to get turough their line he met with anything but polite treatment. The clash came about over a rumor that the prisoners' friends haa a plan to res- cue them. It was necessary to get the prisoners out of the hotel, and so Judge LaFountaine was sent for and told that an Important matter was to be argued. Fol- lowed by a dozen lawyers, the judge went to the corridor and withip fitty feet of the rooms occupled by the prisoners he opened court.

In the mouth, food is masticated and mixed with saliva containing a digestant called ptyalin. In the stomach, it is acted upon by gastric Juice contalning pepsin, which digests albuminous foods. In the intestines, pancreatin is added to digest fats and starches. Indigestion always indicates an insuficient amount of one or all of these digestants. At first thought 1t seems proper to abstaln from foods not easily digested; but reflection shows 4s that while this affords relief by giving the weakened organs less to do, it only makes them weaker by giving them less nourishment. If you suffer from indigestion, the only right thing to do 1s to ©at a generous variety of food and digest it by using sucha preparation as KoboL DyspepsiA CURE, which contains all the known digestants, and completely digests what you eat.
