| Nebraska (GOVERNOR PEARSON 1§ SURE ON THE J0B Gets His Photograph Taken Sitting in the Chair, and Otherwise Acts Like Real Executive HASN'T STARTED MUCH YET (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, June 14.—(Special.)—Act~ ing Governor James Pearson is mak- ing hay while the sun shines. He does not propose to let future pos- terity forget that for a short time greatest agricultural state in the Union, and this morning called a photographer to his office, closed the door and dared him to do this worst. What the result will be is not known just now. Whether the picture taken of the present executive was a flash- light showing him snugly filling the gubernatorial seat, or a motion pic- ture displaying him signing requisi- tions, extraditions, commissions and such, will remain a mystery until such time as the photographer’s work is given the spot light. Has the Habit. Be that as it may, Governor Pear- son has already got the governor habit. He reached the office about the regular governor time this morn- ing, received the anxiously waiting public in the usual governor way, and really appears to enjoy the novelty of governing the state, although he has had little to do so far but the routine work of the office. Yester- day he affixed his official signature to a permit for visitors to visit the penitentiary and this morning granted a requisition asked for by Governor Capper of Kansas for the return to that state of a supposed lawbreaker. Nobody F ired Yet. The members of the State Railway commission are doing business at the old stand, and have nto followed the orders given them yesterday to secure bonds or secure another job. Just what the members of the commission will do if Governor Pearson and At- torney General Reed declare them non compus mentis e pluribus unum or something like that, and they have to quit. Taylor sold his newspaper soon after assuming the office of commissioner, and therefore would be in hard luck. Hall has got entirely out of touch with the law business, although he has gained a great deal of experience in running an automo- bile and might get a job as chauffeur somewhere, while Clarke would have no visible means of support as he has been on the commission so long he would have to start all over new. Perhaps that is the reason that Governor Pearson is not pushing his proposition of the commissioners go- ing to the expense and trouble of securing bonds. Japs Are Leaving California in Hurry (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, June 14.—(Special.)—“The Japs are all leaving California,” said Hon. R. P. Stat of Loup City, who with his son was a guest at the Lindell hotel today, while talking with a representative of the Bee. “I do not know why,” said he, “but many of them are leaving and dropping every thing. Close to where my sister lives they have departed and have left their gardens to take care of them- selves. Many tracts set out to toma- toes have been abandoned. Just what it means I cannot discover.” Mr. Star has been visiting in Cali- fornia for some weeks and returned about a week ago. He says that out in California and along the road most of the people appeared to be for Roosevelt before the convention, and were equally strong against Wilson. “Those people out there have it in for the president strong,” said Mr. Star. “I do not know what their attitude will be now, as I left there before the resu't of the Chicago con- ventions was announced, but I am of the opinion that most of the coast states, if not all of them, can be safely counted for Mr. Hughes.” DRUGGISTS MARCH IN FLAG DAY PARADE AT HASTINGS Hastings, Neb., June 14.—(Special Telegram.)—The hundred visiting drugsists attending the state pharma- ceutical convention marched in a I Nebraska ‘ CLARENGE S. PAINE IS DEAD| Secretary of State Historical So- ciety Expires at Lincoln After a Short Illness. e | WELL KNOWN TO THE PIONEERS | (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, Neb., June 14—C. S. Paine, secretary and treasurer of the Mississippi Valley Historical associa- tion, secretary and registrar of the Sons of the American Revolution and secretary of the Nebraska State His- terical society, died here this morn- ing after an illness of five days. He was also secretary and treasurer of | the Nebraska Territorial Pioneers’ as- sociation. attending the Mississippi Valley His- toric..] association meetings at Nash- ville, Tenn., a month ago and is thought to never have completely re- covered. He was 48 years old. The announcement came as a shock to the people of Lincoln, many of whom did not know he was even ill, and at first it was supposed that a mistake had been made. Mr. Paine leaves a wife and four children, the oldest being Mrs. Edward Slater of Omaha. The other three, two sons and a daughter, residing a thome. One of the great ambitions of Mr. Paine’s life was to see Nebraska have | a historical building of its own and to this end he had worked unceas-| ingly. However, Nebraska legisla- tures had always been deaf to h entreaties, and while hundreds thousands of dollars of priceless relics | lay unprotected in different places, the members of the legislature could | not see it Mr. Paine's way, and he| has gone to his grave with his efforts in this line unrewarded, while the work of years is liable to be wasted | uness a future legislature is more generous than those of the past. No| arrangements have yet been made for his funeral. Complaint From Quarrymen. | Railway Commissioner Clarke and Rate Clerk Powell went to Meadow today to investigate a complaint made by owners of stone quarries that the Rock Island railroad was not giving them cars sufficient to ship their product. It has been un-| derstood that the sand and stone dealers were to be given an even chance on the cars, but the latter claim that they have not been given their share.
