LINCOLN, March 8 —(Special)—State Auditor Barton is making an effort to pre- vent discrimiation in rates charged for fire insurance by companies in Nebraska. He has recefved evidence that many com- penfes charge less for & policy in some localities than in others on the same class of risks and even In the same localities he has evidence that there is discrimina- tion It has been reported to him that while there ia a rate war on at Hastings insur- #nce s belng written for 10 cents a hun- dred, while in Lincoln the rate on the same class is $1.20 & hundred Before moking any -order § taking any @rastic_means to bring abo¥. the reform destred he has sent to the various com- panies the following letter: 1t has been repeatediy brought to our uotice that there exists in this state con- ditions’ of flagrant discrimination in the matter of the rates being charged by fire Insurance companies. 1t Is well known that the prevalling rates { none community are extremely low, while in another community of the same class and having the same fire protection the rates are very mueh higher and probably much higher than n v, owing to the inadequacy of the rates in the places first referred to.

Poulson Whipe 'E The board of trustees of the Anti-Saloon league, which met this afternoon, was thoroughly spanked by the Rev. Poulson, who In turn voted an increase in sal- ary from his $1,80 & year | Thers was big talk this morning and | there has been big talk for several days that Thomas Wimberly, the Rev. Battan | |and the Rev. Fellman of Omaha were £0ing to put the rollers under the imported boss of the league, but when the time for | action came thers was nothing doing. Mr. Poulson held the whip hand and every- thing was a peaceful as it could be so far as the outside public knows. Mr. Poulson, Lysle Abbott and Chancellor Davidson of Wesleyan wero appointed a committee to tell the public what it wanted to know and to show there weer no hard feelings in the matter, Before the trustees got to the point of selecting a harmony committee to make a report it went through a big fight behind its closed doors. Treasurer Guile announced that he had | been treasurer only in name and therefore had mo report to make, as Mr. Poulson had handled the money. In this Mr. Gulle found he was mistaken, for he had |to read the report made by the imported boss. Rev. Mr. Fellman took exception to the report because It did not contaln provis- lon for the payment of some $00 which he said the league had promised to assume loon league when the state leagues allowed 1t President Warrick very hotly retorted that he himself had sent $100 to the Omaha promised at the time of the consolidation. This aroused W. R. Patrick, who, though not a trustoe, managed to get into the meeting. He told of the contract and it is the state league promised to assume that $900 obligation. Then Mr. Fellman got maa about that for quite a while, but there was no demonstration. Finally someone suggested that a com- mitteo had been appointed to look into that Omaha claim, so the matter was declared closed until that committee reports. About this juncture Mr. Poulson con- cluded it was time to get in his Meks for a raise in wages, and so it was proposed to pay him $2,500 a year. This was objected to, and finally he agreed to accept $2,000. Lysle Abbott objected to the Increase be- cause he thought the league was far enough behind. now financially, Then was apjpointed the committee with instructions to give out a statement that there had been no trouble of any.kind and everything was/harmontous. The commit- tes also included in its reports that all political parties must endorse county Sption in their platforms, Bitter Against Crabtree. The effort of democratic politiclans and newspapers to discredit the State Normal board for asking for the Tesignation of Principal Crabtree has had no effect on the decision of the board, and it is very probable that when the meeting is held in Lincoln Friday, Mr, Crabtree will be sum- marily dismissed. tI is known that at least threo members of the board will he for this program and it is not Impossible that the entire membership will be of the same mind when the board gets together. Treasurer Brian belleves the board owes {1t to the school at Peru to see that it is at once placed in charge of persons that are friendly to its Interest. He feels that Mr. Crabtree has demonstrated since his resignation was demanded that the board acted wisely. The fact that the Nebraska Teacher, a school journal publjshec here printed sev- eral pages of endorsements of Mr. Crab- |tree and the denunciation of the normal buord occasionéd little surprise where the facts are known. Just before taking charge of the Peru Normal school Mr. Crabtree owned stock in the Nebraska Teacher; the | time when he was accredited high school examiner and the paper conducted a teach- ers' employment bureau. There is no evi- dence at hand to show that since that time Mr. Crabtree has severed his connec- tion with the publication. These facts being known to the normal board it is very doubtful, so one member | said, that a flood of telegrams from the | Crabtree bureau will have any effect on the action of the board. | National Guard Property.

The Albion Telephone company has re- celved permission from the State Rallway commission to charge the following rates Individual business telephone, 2.2 per month; two-party line business telephone, 82; individual residence telephons, §1. two-party line residence telephone, §1.2; four-party line, §1 per month; farm lines, $1.25 per month. Town people who pay In advance by the 10th of each month are entitled to & 10 per, cent reduction, while the farmers may secure a 10 per cent re- @uction If they pay six mouths in advance. The company made applieation to charge $2.60 @ month for individual telephones, but the commisson thought it more equitable and fair to charge the rates above, Amends Cross-Petition. The application of the citizens of Have- lock for a 5-cent rate from Havelock to Lincoln via the traction line was discussed before the Railway commission this morn- ing, with Mayor Love of Lincoln present. The traction company was given ten days in which to amend its cross petition to include University Place and College View in the G-cent rate. The rate now charged to those places as well as in Lincoln is six tickets for 3 cents. The company insists that If Havelock gets & reduced rate it will bé necessary to increase rates in Lincoln or to cut out the § per cent oceupation tax lowiad Wy the altv. | better. | A. Thom: Nebraska SEED BAD, SAYS ROBINSON Waterloo Expert Deolares Agitation for Tests is Good Thing. COLD WEATHER KILLED GERM Twenty Below Zero Too Muwech for that Had Become rated with Molsture from Previous Snow. WATERLOO, Neb.,, March 9.—(Special.)— That the agitation in regard to poor seed corn is well founded s the opinion of J. C. Robinson of the Robinson Seed company. Mr. Robinson is also president of the Amer- fcan Seed Trade assolatin and his extenstve perations in the seed line makes a state- ment from him authoritative, “The condition of seed corn,” he declares, “has not been overrated. In fact, no such crists for the farmers has existed before In the twenty-two years I have been in- terested In seed corn. When our rains commenced on November 12 last corn was rather above an averasge condition, both as regards molsture and vitality. About three | weelts later, when the first snow came it had taken up or absorbed mueh molsture, but vitality still remained good. The first snow was followed by more until the first week in January, when the thermometer dropped to about 20 degrees below zero and this practically destroyed the germ in all corn containing over 16% per cent of mositure, although a few cribs containing 1 per cent more have shown good vitality, but these were cribs that had come protec- tion from the extreme weather. “We have found that an average of 2 per cent of the corn In eastern Nebraska stlll retains a vitality of % per cent or These crops that remain good are mostly the thin grained, earler varieties, with small cobs; the thick, heavy grained, late varieties, with large cobs are nearly all of low vitality. Corn that remained on the stalk all wnter is valueless for seed purposes. A series of tests made from corn from the flelds shows that éars, not touch- ing the ground byt burled under the snow; &ive a good growth, whilee ars only pro- tected from the weather by husks are low vitally, thus showing that corn above the normal in meisture can retain vitality it protected. “We have made thus far this season about 2,500 tests, and have found many surprses. ' Some farmers have figured on planting their own corn, with perfeot as- surance that it is good and can hardly belleve it will not grow even when con- fronted with actual results. An averages of 8 per cent vitality is good for the year, but many flelds will doubtless be planted With untested corn even after all the agi- tation on the subject.” SHOT BY Dorchester Man Instantly Kille: During Scuffle Over Gun, DORCHESTER, Neb., March 9.—Jacob Kohel, a farmer living near here, wi shot and instantly killed today by his son, John Kohel.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., March 9.—(Spe- clal.)—An explosion of a gallon of earbonic acid in the Baumann & Baumann drug store caused a loss of $3,000 to the stock of drugs and of $1,00 to the building, owned by Dr. Boyden, despite the fact that the fire department, with headqua: ters only a block away, was promptly at the scene and used only the chemical ap- pliance for the extinguishment of the fire. Immediately above the carbolie acld on shelves there were other high combusibles and a fierce fire was raging In a sccond. | Several cans of oll were added to flames and the smoke throughout the building was dense and black. After the fire was out and the room cleared of smoke it was found that the soldering on the tanks containing 200 gallons of ofl had the begun to meit and in a few moments more | a second explosion would have resulted.
