SAYS STATE TO LOSE ALL OF OIL IN SPECTION FEES Standard Oil Objects to Paying In spection Costs Says Statute Held Unconstitutional. F oiii Saturday's Daily The Standard Oil company, one of t the several dealers in gasoline that successfully attacked the six cent a . barrel inspection fee collected for a 'number of years by the state, joins j with them in asking the supreme i court not to let the state have any of the impounded lees. When the oil companies began the action the fees provided by the law continued to be collected, but were 'paid into the hands of the clerk of the district courtof Omaha, where : the case was filed. The state won j below, but the supreme court said t he law authorizing the six cent lee 1 was unconstitutional hecause it pro- j vmed tor a lee greater man is tne !cost of inspection. ; Then began a fight for the posses sion of the fees, which run up into the thousands. The state says that the oil companies are not entitled to it because they had collected it from t their customers, the evidence- show- ! ing that it is (barged among the ! costs of doing business, and the oil confpanies retorted that the state was not entitled to it simply because it had been paid by residents of the' state. The district ourt said the oil ocmpanies should get it and the case is now in supreme court on the ap peal of the state, which says it ought at least to get the cost of inspection out of the fees. The Standard has just filed a brief in which it says that an unconstitu tional statute creias no new rights rind abrogates no old ones; that as I he "i:ly part of the law left that is valid requires the inspection of oil, tlie state not being authorized to col- jlect any fee for it, must do as it does in enfert inir other statutes, pay the expense itself. It authorized the in s e. lion and as it cannot recover the !c" charged it must meet the cost it self. Resides when the c-ie was ti'ed the state had notice that collection was iei:ig resisted, and as it went ahead -with inspection it cannot collect cost ironi con-: panics. RUTH IS SOMETHING OF A PITCHING STAR rremier Slucgcr Vlade Maik While Position Play This Year. Plavin Box ing Great New York, Oct. 1. George Her man Ruth, known to fans simply as "Rabe,'' tlie outstanding star ef the mafbr leagues this season, whose bat and all-round ability contributed largely to the winning of the third pen mint by the Yankees, played his lirst championship game with the Raltimore International league club April 22, 1914. Raltimore played Ruffalo that day Ruth pitched, allowing six hits, pass ing four men and striking out four. isn m more won. ti 10 o. liaitimore s second sacker was Neal Rail, the first major league player to make an un assisted triple play. Rail had made his triple killing live years before while playing with Cleveland against the Roston Red Sox. Ruthjnade his first appearance in the majors on July 11. 1914. with the Roston Red So., as a pitcher. He twirled seven innings against Cleve land, being taken out so that Duffy Lewis could pinch Lit for him. The Red Sox won 4 to Ruth getting credit for the victory. He struck out jone man and passed none. I The 1916 series between the Red Sox ami the Rrooklyn Superbas was Ruth's first championship experi ence. He defeated Rrooklyn. 2 to 1. j in fourteen Innings on October 9, I holding the I lodgers runless for the last thirteen innings. In the 191S series between the Red Sox and Chi c.iKo Cubs.

Ruth's all-round ability as pitcher, outfielder, first baseman and wallop er extraordinary had drawn him to the top of the star list, and in 1920 jle became a member of the New York American league club. In his last season with Roston lie had twenty nine home runs. In his first season in New York he swung his bat into fifty-four homers, a new all-lime mark, and in the following year in creased this record to fifty-nine. A WISE DECISION- From Sii t urh( y'x laily This morning County Judge Ree son heard the evidence in the case wherein complaint had been made against a young girl, Mary Clark, aged fourteen, whose home was at Nehawka and in which the father of the girl had complained of her and her conduct. The father had made the complaint to the edfice ttf the county attorney who in the line of his duty was compelled to file the in formation. The court hearing the evidence de cided that it was his judgment that the child should not be sent to the girls' industrial school but should in stead have a home selected for her in some other place as it was appar ently impassible for her to dwell in peace in her own home. The case was one that was really touching as the young girl had ap parently been guiltyof nothing seri ous beyond the desire of all young people to enjoy a Jittle of the life of the world and to muigle with others of lier mvn age in the activities of life and the conflict between the par ent had been apparently over the matter of her conduct. The girl evinced a desire to stay at home but the troubles that had occurred be tween her anil the father were such that the court thought best to try and secure her, a home elsewhere as the safest means of giving the girl an opportunity to better herself and this was also e-oincided in hy the county attorney.

Mr. Meisinger states that he is soon to move to Louisville to make his home having purchased a neat and attractive residence there and that with Airs. Meisinger he will en Joy a rest from the work of the farm. In speaking of the flood at Louisville Adam states that a large dam formed a mile south of Louisville was the cause of the great flood there Friday, a week ago. and this checked the wa ters of Mill creek for a long time un til they had reached flood time di mensions and then swept away the .lam and made way on into Louisville leaving death and "desolation in its wake. How Better Than Pills ? The question has 7een asked, "In what way are Chamberlain's Tablets superior to the ordinary cathartic and liver pills?" Our answer is, they are easier ana more pleasant to take and their effect is so gentle that one hardly realizes that it is produced by a medicine. Then, they not only move the bowels but improve the ap petite and strengthen the digestion. TRUCKING Anyone desiring trucking, grain or livestock a specialty, try us first. P.ecker Rros., phone 1214, Union, Neb. s 6-lino, w SOLD BY MARTIAL LAW IN COME DEAD LETTER Only a Handful of Troops Left in Either Oklahoma City or Tulsa as Walton Defeated. Oklahoma City, Okla.. Oct. 4. Tlie mad rush of the last few days iim- Imentarily stopped, Oklahoma tonight 'took stock of her position and con jectured as to the future. With the court battle between Governor Wal ton and members of the Oklahoma house of representatives halted until next Tuesday, those whose attention 'has been fastened on the spertacular 'contest between the legislative and ; executive branches of the state gov j eminent turned to matters"that had been forced into, the back ground and realized that martial law umh r which they had lived for nearly three weeks has become military rule virtually in name only. In Oklahoma City the military court that was convened to delve in to alleged lawlessness of the ku klnx klan not only has been disbanded, but the grip of the military has been removed from the city in every re spect. Military headquarters have been abandoned and persons appear ing on the streets after midnight no longer need parses. Likewise in Tulsa, the sede remain ing activity of the military is the court of inquiry. This is in session, hut guards nowhere else are to be seen. In authoritative quarters it was said that less than a dozen troopers now are on duty in Tulsa. Goveriier Walton Said that no cases of mob violence had been re ported for two weeks, indicating he believed, the situation well in hand. The court proceedings were post poned today on agreement of coun sel for members of the leidslattiro who seek an injunction to restrain the governor's agents from interfer ing -with an assembly of the legisla ture as an impeachment body.
