LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 9. (Special.)
Briefs on behalf of tlie mayor and flro and
p.illce commission of Omaha, In the case In
stituted by the la'to chief of the Omaha fire
department, John Hedoll, were filed la the
offlco of the supreme court today. The
action comes to the supreme court on on
nppcal from a decree of tho district court
of Douglas county enjoining the mayor and
tho fire and police commission from trying
charges of misconduct that were preferred
against Ucdcll on May 27, by John W.
llrudcr. The argument Is by V. J. Conncll,
who asserts that the matter to bo deter
mined by the court Is the jurisdiction of tho
Hoard of Fire and Police Commissioners.
The complaint filed against llcdell con
tained three general charges. The first nc
cused Mm of brutal and tyrannical treat
ment of the officers and men of the fire de
partment uhllo In tho performance of their
duties. It vn alleged that to the great
delrlnent of the service he abused his sub
ordinates with obscene, profane and threat
rnlng language, as well as actual personal
violence to the extent of Incapltatlng them
for service. The charge was followed by
Mx specific assertions, detailing acts and
specifying names and dates. The second
charge accused the chief of using Insubordi
nate, doflnnt and Insulting language con
cerning his superiors. Tho third charge ac
cused Hedcll of Insulting the wives and
daughters of members of his department.
The board of commissioners assigned the
case for hearing on June 7, but on June 3
Itcdell filed a petition In equity In tho
district court praying for an Injunction
forbidding tho board from hearing and de
termining the charges.
ArxtiFK llonril'a Jurisdiction.
In defense of tho contention that tho
board has Jurisdiction to proceed with tha
hearing. Mr. Contiel) says:
"What Is tho net here Involved? Thcro
Is btlt ono legislative act In thl controversy
nnd that Is the charter act of cities of the
metropolitan clars. It Is not contended that
the whole charter Is void because of tho
unconstitutionality of section 166. The ques
tion accurately stntcd Is, then, not whether
tho act Is void, but whether such other sec
tions as relate to the samo subject matter
are void. I am not nwarc of any case In
which a court has taken upon Itself to pick
out parts of an act and say tbata their pass
age was Induced by tho deslro to enact a
certain Invalid section or clause, and that
those special parts aro void on account of
such relationship. So far ns I know tho
Instances In which this rule has been en
forced show that tho bill was held vitiated
as an entirety. It Is evident that a court
should not undertake to rummage nt will
among the numorrus provisions of a long
nnd complicated act nnd nullify this and
that rcctlon on the ground that Its passage,
In the opinion of the court, was Induced by
Its connection with an Independent and In
valid clause
"I submit that -the charter legislation re
garding tho Board of Fire and Police Com
missioners stands as It was enacted, save
only" as Uo the' power of -the governor to
appoint fhe members of that board. That
beltig so, section 1C9 operated to confer
upon tho existing board full jurisdiction to
hoar and determine the charges against
the appellee filed with them. That being
so, tho claim of the nppclleo that the board
derives Its existence and power solely
from ordlnanco No. 4348 cannot be' sus
tained, "It will be remembered that tho appellee
In his petition sot up as ono reason why
the bonrd should bn enjoined from pro
ceeding wtyh his trial tho statement that
the otfenscH chnrged wero with ono ex
ception more than thirty days old and,
therefore, under n certain rulo of the board
outlawed. According to his own showing
there was at least one charge not affected
by the rulo Invoked. Thot was enough to
Justify tho board proceeding with the trial
had It possessed tho rcquislto jurisdic
tional powers. As to tho rule Itself there
can bo no question that the board might
lawfully change it or cancel it at nny time
nnd tho accused have no right to object.
The ruin was not mndo for his benefit and
It conferred upon htm no vested right,
nut It In useless to discuss that matter
here. Tho tola question here touches the
Jurisdiction of the board. If It lb deter
mined that the board has the Jurisdiction
the court will assume that It will exercise
such Jurisdiction lawfully. If thcro nru
somu of tho charges which tho beard Is In
any way precluded from hearing this court
will presuroo that whero tho trial raises
that question the board will so rule. Tho
Bppolleo has had his opportunity to present
evidence, If any ho has, tending to show
that tha board will not glvo htm a fair nnd
Impartial trial. As the record stands It
would be clearly error to enjoin the board
from proceeding with the trial on tho
ground that tho trial will not be conducted
In a layful manner In every respect."

A new plan for utilizing the water of
C'cdar river for power purposes at Kullerton,
In Nanc county, has been submitted to
Secretary Dobson of the Stnte Board of Ir
rigation by I. I. Bennett, who has already
organized tho Fullcrton Electric Light and
Power company, for tha promotion and op
eration of his scheme. Mr. Bennett pro
poses to construct a canal 229 feet in length
and a power plant with a capacity of 1 200
elcctrlct lights or 120 horse-power. The
total cost of building tho plant and tbo
canal Is estimated at 13,900.
Tho peculiar elevation of the land and
tho wide deviation of the river will make
it possible, it Is claimed, to obtain a fall
of fifteen feet with tho 229 feet of canal.
Mr. Bennett does not contemplate building
a reservoir. Ha simply propose to prac
tically ellmlnato a curve of two miles in
the natural course of tha stream by the
substitution of tho short canal.
Secretary Dobson haw taken Mr. Bennett's
application for water right under advise
ment and it is likely that a hearing will
bo held, as another claim for tho water of
the same river, and for the same purpose,
wns recently filed In his office.
