lature) will not cost the stats very much
Money. A member of the board admitted
frankly this afternoon that hia colleagues
all rode on free transportation and be
stated also that there would hardly be
any claims for transportation filed under
the circumstances. When asked what the
expense bad been he stated that It would
be Tory small, since at most of the places
entertainment Is furnished free of chart;
There baa been some little Interest as to
the mode In which the expenses of the
trip should be paid, since the board la al
lowed only SAQ for expenses during the
blenorum. That amount Is Just sufficient
to pay the ordinary expenses of that body
and It la understood that Mr. Mortensea
baa Ye toed the scheme to pay tfie coat of
the trip out of the appropriation for the
Construction of the new school.

Fairfield. Hastings and Holdrege In their
endeavor to get the new echooL Fairfield
and Hastings gave the board receptions,
but, according to the statements of mem
bers of the board who returned to the
City this morning. Holdrege took the lead
for the alxe of the territory represented
at the meeting of the board and the cltl
"sena Lengthy petttlona were presented
containing the names of many cltlsena
from all parts of the Fifth congressional
district. Representatives and senators
from the entire southwest section of the
tat were present and partook of the
festivities and the speechmaklng. Fifteen
counties were represented and only three
f the counties of that congressional dis
trict wers without representation Hall,
Clay and Adams, two of which are rival
candidates.
The character of the meeting at the
Phelps county capital was such that the
Impression prevails among the members
of the board that not only Holdrege, but
the entire southwestern section of the
tat was represented. The unanimity that
prevails In that section of the state as to
the location of the school la said to have
convinced the members that the location of
the school to meet with the approval of
the southwest would bare to be at Hol
drege.

"The Hastings proposition Is a big propo
sition, and there Is no mistake about that,
aid Treasurer Mortensen. who Is a mem
ber of the Board of Education. "The people
of that city offer a very fine looking build
ing and there la no doubt that the offer
made the board la a magnificent one in
vary way. The park offered as a site for
the school is well located and If the mere
also of the bonus offered were to determine
the matter of the location, they would get
the school."
Mr. Mortensen is still an advocate of Ord,
however, and Is firmly opposed to the
location of the school in any city which
already has a state institution, wirklng
en the theory that the good things ought
to be passed around. Hs clings to the be-
. lief that the. Valley county town, will win
cut, because of the 12.000 bonus offered
and the location near the center of the
- state.

the Ryan Injunction case. This Is the suit
In which Robert Ryan was successful In
having the Lancaster county district court
declare the amendment of 1SST to the con
stitution, changing the pay of members of
the legislature from $3 to $5 a day. Invalid.
Members Make Aaswer.
The answer of the South Omaha Fire
and Police board to the petition In quo
warranto questioning their right to hold
office, was filed in supreme court this
morning. The answer sets out the passage
of the law, and the action of the governor
under law In making the appointments un
der it, and that he was acting within the
scope of his powers when he did so. The
defendants also claim that they took the
oath to administer the laws Impartially,
and to make their appointments to posi
tions in the fire and police departments
without prejudice. The members of the
board who are having their authority to
act questioned are Thomas J. Nolan, A. L.
Bergqulst, William B. Van Sant, Albert A.
Nixon and George W. Mason.
The application for a writ of quo war
ranto to oust them grew out of the con
test In the legislature over the passage
of the law providing for the Fire and Po
lice board, which was opposed by E. Rose
water and the democratic contingent of the
legislature on the ground that it would
place the control of the pork -par king town
in the handa of a rfng of politicians.
One of the principal objections which
will be raised at the hearing before the
supreme court, which has original Juris
diction In the case, !s that the section
giving the board the right to employ fire
men la directly contradictory to another
section of the statutes which gives the
same right to the city council. The con
flict. It la claimed, will make the law pro
viding for the Fire and Police board In
valid. The city organisation and the coun
cil la said to be back of the suit to test
the validity of the law. The case will be
argued at an early sitting of the supreme
court.

Peter Eveland of Murdock. Caas county,
who was at the state bouse today to file
articles f Incorporation for a co-operative
grain association, told an Odd story of a
boycott inaugurated against the Rock
Island. The men who are interested In the
company represent 1.000 acres of the moat
fertile land In Cass county and a capital of
ri.MO.0W. They have already been turned
down by the elevator company and are
now weighing tha chance or winning out in
a suit to make the railway grant a site
under the terms of tha Ramsey elevator
law. which passed the last legislature with
great eclat only to be totally Ignored by
the railways of the state.
About a month ago the officers of the
association, which was being organised.
filed a raqueat with the management of
the Rock Island Railway company for a
site. The company agreed, according to
the story told by Mr. Eveland. who ia the
vice president, to take the matter under
consideration. The railway officials were
assured that the grain company would
erect a 20,000-bushel elevator to cost at
least $5,000. A few days later the company,
after some urging, answered the applica
tion w.Uh the statement that the site could
not be granted sinoe the two old companies
had agreed to Increase their capacity to
, bushels. This made tha farmers who
were seeking to get their own elevator
angry and a meeting was held at which
an agreement was entered Into by nearly
all the farmers around Murdock not to
haul a wagonload of grain to Murdock, and
now the town Is threatened with great
loss, because the farmers will trade where
their grain la sold. Now they haul their
grain to South Bend on the Burlington, a
distance of six. and to Wabash on the
Missouri Pacific, only four mllea to the
south of Murdock.
The grass will grow on the approaches,
for we shall haul every bushel of grain
raised around Murdoch to the other towns
if we fall to get our own elevator, said
Mr. Eveland. "There are eighty of us, and
we control most of the land around tha
town."
