Tha action brought against the city of
South Omaha by tho Plattstnouth Tele
phone company hns taken another turn and
tho company Is now restrained from doing
Bny work or carrying on Its business Hi
South Omaha until It Is decided whether
the company can enter tho city without se
curing a franchlso from tho council.
J. H. Van Dusen appeared beforo Judge
Estello yesterday morning and secured a
restraining order, which requires the tele
phono company to dlscpntlnuo nil work un
til November 29, when Judgo Fawcett will
hear tho case.
The Plattsmoiith Telephone company at
tempted to enter South Omaha over lines
which wero alleged to havo been leased
from tho Postnl Telegraph-Cablo company.
City officials interfered with the work and
"nserted that no company had a right to
bring lines Into the city without consulting
the city electrician nnd gottlng n franchlso
from tho council,
Tho Plattsmoiith company made applica
tion to Judgo Haker for a temporary re
straining order, which was granted. This
order was rescinded lator by Judgo linker.
Thn compnny then secured an order from
the supreme court which virtually restored
tho restraining order anil mndo It Impossi
ble for South Omaha to lnterfcro with the
company's work until after the district
court renders n decision In tho case. That
no work may be carried on meantime the
South Omnha officials secured the order
from Judgn Kstclle.
Tolritrniili Compnny's Course,
South Omaha filed an answer to tho peti
tion of tho Plnttsmouth company nnd nlso
a cross-petition. In tho nnBwer It Is staled
that the city Ic Ignorant of the fact that the
Telegraph company rented tho lines It Is
nbout to use from the Postal Telegraph
Cablo company. Tho right, of tho telegraph
company to lease Its lines In tho streets of
South Omaha Is also dented.
It is alleged In the cross. petition thnt no
company can use tho streets of the city
without securing n franchise nnd tho city
attorney states thnt the Plnttsmouth com
pany made application, previous (o the
nttempt to forcibly enter the streets, for
an ordinance granting It permission to set
Its poles nnd string Its wires nlong the
public thoroughfnres of South Omaha. Ap
plication Is said to have been made since
the city Interfered.
Tho cross-putltlon states that the city
electrician must bo consulted by persons
desiring to place wires In the streets and
avers that tho Plattsmoiith company paid
no attention to the city ordlnanco making
this provls'lon. According to the terms of
tho or.dlnancc the petition states that all
wiring must be done under the personal
supervision of tho city electrician-' -and
failure to heed this provision renders tho
offender subject to- arrest and imprison
ment. Frnnrhloe Orillnniirr I'rnillnir.
According to the cross-petition the city
attoiney and council have prepared a fran
chise which they are willing to grant tho
Plattstnouth company upon application.,'
The franchise provides that the' monthly
charges for telephone service shall . vary
from $1.C0 to $2.26. At one time repre
sentatives of the Plattsmoiith company
stated tn members of the city council that
they would he willing to accept these rates
If allowed to carry on an exchange In South
Omaha. Since the franchise hns been
formally prepared tho Plattsmoiith com
pany has not stated whether It will ac
cept It.

"The board will continue In session till

council begins its flvo days' session as a

that our totals on the personal assessment

"You see this work wo are doing hero

Everyone Is at liberty to appear beforo this
board, and wo oven take an added precau
tion that those who might have objections
may havo every opportunity to get up here

"For this purpose wo have a printed
notification which we send out In cases
whero we happen to notice that tho assess

terially from tho taxpayer's Idea of what It
should be. It Is not necessary for us to do
this, nor does tho law require- It, but we
take tho extra troublo wherever we happen

SCH
Doctors Mystified.
A woman is eick ; some disease peculiar to her sex is
fast developing in her systom. She goes to her family
physician and tells him a story, but not tho whole story.
She holds something back, loses her head, becomes
agitated, forgets what she wants to say, and finally con
ceals what she ought to have told, and thus completely
mystifies tho doctor.
Is it any wonder, therefore, that the doctor fails to
cure the disease? Still, we cannot blame tho woman, for
it is very embarrassing to detail some of tho symptoms of
her suffering, even to her family physician. It was for
this reason that years ago Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass., determined to step iu and help her sex. Having had
considerable experience in treating female ills with her
Vegetable Compound, she encouraged the women of Amer
ica to write to her for advice in regard to their complaints,
and being a woman, it was easy for her ailing sisters to
pour into her ears every detail of their suffering.
In this way she was able to do for them what the phy
sicians wore unable to do, simply because she had the
proper information to work upon, and from tho little group
of women who sought her advice years ago, a great army
of her fellow-beings are to day constantly applying for
advico and relief, and the fact that more than ono hundred
thousand of thorn have been successfully treated by Mrs.
Pinkham during tho last year is indicative of tho grand
results which are produced by her unequaled experience
and training.
No physician in the world has had such a training, or
has such an amount of information at hand to assist in tho
treatment of all kinds of fomalo ills, from the simplest
local irritation to tho most complicated diseases of the
womb.
This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham, in
her laboratory at Lynn, Mass., is ablo to do more for the
ailing women of America than tho family physician. Any
woman, thoreforo, is responsible for her own suffering
who will not take the troublo to write to Mrs. Pinkham
for advico.
