Judgo Qordon was happy' when ho heard
of tho supremo court's decision. He said
ho had never felt a jloubt that ho would
ultimately get, a favorable decision, but
ho had not expected tho court to reach
tho caso so soon, asit had been submitted
only two weeks ago. One causo for re-
gret on tho Judge's part was that tho su-
prcmo court did not pass upon the point
of suspended Bohtonces, which was tho
ono upon which tho district court removed
him from office
Tho Judgo nays ho still believes he was
right in suspending sentences whenever
and wherever ho thought best and that

"As I understand tho decision of tho
cdurt,' said Cjty Attorney Connell last
night, "it does pot tako Into consideration
tho evldrnco in tho caso tried in tho ills-
trlct court, but decided tho mattor In favor
of Judgo Oordon on tbo law cnactea oy
the legislature at tho last session, wherein
power is conicrreu upon ino niBirici couri
ln couutlcs containing a city of tho metro-
polltan dais to try such cases. Tho
court has held, as I learn, that this law is
unconstitutional for tho reason that it
grants to tho district courts In countlos
containing a metropolitan city a different
Jurisdiction and a greater power than that
possessed by similar courtB In counties
which contain no such cities. If I have
been correctly Informed tho decision of
tha court, if it is permitted to stand, will
havo a far-reaching effect, as many of
tho laws governing this city nro in tho
same condition. Tho decision will not only
affect tho officers of tho city nnd their ro-
moval, but It will affect property rights
and tho personal rights of tho private cit-
lzen. Such a decision will be disastrous
in its effect.
as soon as i. iiavo nau nn ojii.uiiu.my
to examlno tho opinion I will prepare a
motion ror a reneanng nnu u -km uo hi-
guou. ino court nan nein ihbl na juuh-

torty ciays to me my roowon auu umu umi

uot enter upon the discharge of the duties
of tho office.
Xo Way for itrinovnl.
"As wo stand at present there Is no way
by which an officer of tho city can bo re
movod for malfeasnnce. Under this de
cision each ono Is freo to do as ho pleases
without a fear of removal. If this is really
tho condition the law will have lo be
amended nnd between now and tho tlmo
tho supremo court acts upon tho motion
for a rehearing the legislature may pro
vide a new method for tho removal of of
ficers by nn amendment to the city charter.
"No, the Judgo canrtot go Into ofllco to
morrow nnd he will be in luck it ho over
docs. Of course, It tho decision stands tho
city will havo to pay him for tho time that
Judgo Learn has served, but not, at tho
rato of S2.S0O per annum. Ho will havo to

from tho tlmo that he began his second
terra. Hut I do not bellevo the opinion will
stand on a rehearing. "

The dlnpatch from Iloston lolling of the
chango In the head officers of the Hurling-
ton system came as a surprlsn to the of
ficers residing here and at first was dis
credited
"It is tho first I have heard of It." said
General imager Holdrege yesterday after
noon. "1 saw both President Perkins and
Vlre'resldent Harris Just a few days ago,
but nothing was said about Mr. Perkins re
signing nor tho elevation of Mr, Harris
to tho presidency. I don't see how it
could ba possible that tho news could bo
true, but still It may be. Ab I had not
heard of It and have not discussed It, I
cannot say anything about tho possibilities
which may result nor or the changes which
may follow." '
The action of tho Hurllngton Is in lino
with that of tho other largo roads. In the
other systems a decided chango has oc-

In the days when C. E. Perkins was
chosen proBldent of tho Uurllngton tho
president was tho man who stood at the
head of tho road1 and was tho most influen
tial figure. In recent years Mr. Porklns
has relinquished many of tho details of
tho management nnd has occupied n posl-
Hon closely related to that of chairman of
tho board in other systems.
The election of Vlco President Ocorgo II.

Dyspepsia Ooipo
Pcoplo used to think that, the only way to ovcrcomo Indi
gestion was to 6top eating, and many think so still. But the
only troublo In that kind of treatment Is tho fact that to stop
eating means to stop living, and wecan hardly call that a cure.
But since Kodol Dyspepsia Cuke has become known the wholo
method of treating Indigestion has been changed. It digests
what yon eat and permits you to cat all tho good food you need
nnd gives the stomach perfect rest; nnd its use constitutes a
plain common sense method of curing dyspepsia and Indigestion.

Tho flno distinction In law between own
ing goods and having 'possession of goods
saved Fred V. HerBgreu from crimlual
prosecution in tho couuty court yesterday.
Berggren was up on ft charge of bavins
obtained about $1,600 worth ot building
twino from tho Kingman Implement com
pany by falso pretenses. It was alleged
that lie represented to tho Jobbing houses
that his nssots wero considerably In excess
of his liabilities, whllo tho reverso was tho
truo condition of his financial ptandlng, and
by such fnlso rej rcscntatlon tecurcd goods
of the valus of nbout 11,600 from tha com
pany. Tho case appenred lo be a clear ono
against HergKrcn until tho contract ho
signed with the implement company before
tho goods weie dollvered to him appeared In
evidence.
This contract provided that title to the
goods sent to Ilorggren should remain In
tho Kingman Implement company until
the full nraount of tho bill for same should
bo paid.
Thero was an opportunity that tho coun
sel for the accused man did not overlook.
He moved for a dismissal of tbo complaint
on the ground that Hcrggren had, not ob
tained tho goods, but had merely obtained
possession of them. Tho title to tho goods,
nccordlnc to tho contract, remained in tho
Kingman company and had not passed to
Horggrcn. If Uerggren nt no tlmo owned
the goods how could ho bo guilty ot oh-

Graid Old Mcr
Some men seem to
defy old age. They
walk erect. Their
eyes are. bright. Their
laugh is hearty. They
are men of to-day
not men of yesterday.
They are also men
who hnvc kept
themselves in good
physical condition in
the past. As wc grow
older waste nutter
accumulates in the
svfitem. Th: bodv
cannot throw it off without assistance. So,
little by little the machinery of the body is
clogged, vitality is lowered, mid enjoyment
oflife ceases. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, cannot make old men young,
hut it does make them strong and healthy.
l)v removitiir the waste accumulations, by
increasing the blood supply, by strength
ening the stomach and organs of diges
tion and nutrition, and thus Increasing the
assimilative and nutritive powers, "Golden
Medical Discovery" makes grand old men.
"I tuffertd for tlx years with cotintipttion nnd
indlgeation, during which time I employed sev
eral phytlclaai, but they could tut teach my
case," writes Mr. G. I'opplewell. of Iviireku
nprings, rron to., atic. "i
felt that there was
no help for me, could not rrtaiu food 011 my
rtomach: had verthro ami would fall hdnteu to
the door. 1 commenced taking Or l'lerce's
Golden Medical DUcovcry and little I'ellcti.' I
am now in good health for one of my age o
years. I owe it all to fir. Pierce's medicines."
Dr. Pierce's Pellets greatly benefit old
.men by keeping the bowels in activity.
