The only real, live, avowed candidate who
had loomed up against the horlson last
night was Al Lehocker of Oakland, who,
his friends claim, . has nailed down
good and strong the nomination for clerk
of the district court. Mr; Lenocker at

ing In the eastern part of the county where
he resides showed blm, It Is said, that he
would stand but little, If any, chance
against W. C. Cheyne, the republican can
didate for that office, owing to the fact
that Mr. Cheyne was formerly a resident
of the eastern part of the county .and has
a particularly strong following both among
the republican and democratic voter of
that section of Pottawattamie county.

MORS LAKE MANAWA LITIGATION
Company Made Defendant In Several
Damage Snlta. A -
The fencing in of certain streets, avenues
and alleys at Ma'nawa, .which It la claimed
the Board of County Supervisor vacated
In Its favor, has brought two or more dam
age suits on th motor company. In the
suits, original notices of which were filed
yesterday, the Cassell Realty company of
Omaha appears as plaintiff. The Cassell
Realty company represents the real estate
holding of the Krug Brewing company,
which a few year ago erected a two-atony
building known as "Th Country Cub
House," on Third street Just outside the
Lake Manawa resort proper. Following the
fencing in of Third street and the otter
thoroughfares by the motor company the
Krug building has been nailed up and with
out a tenant.
In one suit the Casaell Realty company,
on behalf of the Krug Brewing company.
asks for damages in the sum of $1,000 and
an Injunction restraining the motor Com
pany from further obstructing with Its
fences the following thoroughfares: Park
avenue, Portland avenue-the Boulevard,
South Third street. South Fourth atreeC
South Main street and , all'! intersecting
al'.eys. in the second suit the plaintiff
company seek to recover 13,000 damages
for loss of rentals and depreciation of its
property by reason of the closing of theae
atreeta by the motor company.
In the ault Drought by Chrlsman fk Ro
barda and others against the motor com.
pany, in which the ruling of the lower
court was recently sustained by the su
preme, court. Park avenue,., South Third
street and the Boulevard were ordered re
opened and the obstructing fences. taken
down. The supreme pourt held with the
lower court that the vacation ot the
streets In favor of the motor company was
Illegal and deprived property owner at
Lake Manawa of their Just right Insofar
as use of the public thoroughfares was
concerned.

sell Realty 6m pany, it ha been discovered

Main street was without. It I alleged, war

, mission Issued to Commissioner Ernest E.
Cook, then county surveyor of Pottawat
tamie county, by the Board of County Su
pervisors that, only a portion of the thor
oughfare known a the Boulevard Was
mentioned and - that In his report to the
board Cook only recommended the vaca
tion of this particular thoroughfare, no
mention being made at all of the other
avenue and streets! Examination, however,
of the records of the proceedings of the
Board of County Supervisors show that
the board. . "acting upon the report and
recommendation of Commissioner Cook"
ordered the vactlon of the other thorough
fares now in controversy.
Owing to the alleged defect In the com
mission Issued Commissioner Cook, the at
torney for the Cassell Realty company
contend that the vacation of all the other
street except that portion of the Boule
vard so named was entirely Illegal and
without warrant of law.
Several of the street (ought to he opened

th event of the court ordering them

so far a the motor- company Is concerned.
Rain on Carnival.
Despite the threatening appearance of the
weather there was a very fair crowd at
the Eagles' carnival last night, although
the wise one went home early and thus
avoided the drenching rain which camo
down shortly after 10 o'clock.
Tonight will be South Omaha and Omaha
night and large delegations of Eagles are
expected from both these cities. A number
of special feature .have been planned for
tonight and If the weather clerk will pro

CASE OF LESS TAXATION OR A FIGHT
Term of Parole Which Forfeit Coed
Time Allowance of 'Prisoner
Held by Court to Be .
Invalid.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DEB MOINES, la., July 11 (Special.)
The state executive council disposed of the
matter of the hearing of the " represent
atives of railroad companies In shorter
time this year than for a long time. Today
they took up other matter, and especially
express property, Interurbsn and freight
lines. They came plump against a new
proposition In regard to the assessment of
express property. The two big companies,
the American and United States, filed with
the council letter which Indicate that un
less the assessment I reduced there will
be a test of the matter In the courts and
the Iowa assessment or Iowa law may be
knocked out. In both case the companies
cite a decision by the United States su
preme court rendered last year in which
it wa held definitely that a stat canriot
tax interstate business and that Including
property values In other- stares In making
a prorate valuation on mileage In any
one state Is an- Indirect form- of taxing
values In snother state.'. Now the express
companies claim that when the Iowa as
sessors make a prorata valuation Including
property in other states, and especially real
estate not used In the business, In estimat
ing the per. mile values, it Is-contrary to
this decision of the United 8tates court.
While the companies da hot directly say so
there Is an intimation in the letters filed
today that there will be a lawsuit on hand
If the assessment Is not reduced.
Last year the assessment per mile on
these companies was Increased from MO to
$46 for taxation purposes, m from $160 to
$1 8 per mile. The American files now a
computation showing a total valuation of
the entire property to be 27. 540,000, and
after deductions there remains In the ex
press business property- valued at $7,106.96$.
A proportional valuation -would give $35.05
as actual value per mile In Iowa. But ex
cluding ocean mileage It Is figured out at
$53.47 per mile. The company- claims this
would be on property In Iowa valued at
actually less than 2 if he-United States
Express companv" mrtde a'' computation
showing actual v"';'e"..ot property per mile
Including ocean mileage to be $12.12, and
excluding this, " $93.61. But', .the company
would prefer computing ten mtlee of Ocean
mileage equal to one of land mileage and
this would give $55 a mile as actual value.
These computations show something of
what the- companies will claim If they go
Into court to have deteipnlned the question
of the Justice of the Iowa assessments.
Faroled Convict sv Winner.
The Supreme court of . Iowa today de
cided a case of the greatest .Importance to
all prisoner In the state penitentiaries of
Iowa. . The cpurt decided tn the case of
Frank Davis versus WardpvHunter, from
Jdnes county, tat th' Vgood time" earned
by a prisoner cannot .be revoked by the
governor," even ttiough thi convict has en
tered into a contractu Alie effect that It
ahall be revoked in casi'of violation of a
parole granted. DaVls'tnifl "teen sentenced
to a term of seventeen, years for murder
In the second degree.- He served nine years
and, - counting his "goodj'ime," had yet
to serve only sixty-three day of his time.
He was paroled by Governor Shaw, The
usual stipulation wap macje fhat in case' of
violation of his parole he would yield his
good time earned and serve out the full
term. He violated the .parole and was
arrested In Connecticut . and returned to
prison. On the expiration of the sixty
three days he was released on a writ of
habeas corpus from the, district .court of
Jones county; Today th supreme court
uphold this decision, stating that the "good
time" provided for is statutory and cannot
be effected by any contract made, by the
governor.' ' It has been customary for the
governors to revoke the good time as
well am the remainder" Wf' tfie unexpired
term when a parole Is Violated, but Gov
ernor Shaw issued an order under which
ho attempt was made to frevgke good time.
Governor Cummins rescinded the order,
hence the suit. It ,wllj affect every paroled
prisoner and probably result In the revision
of the entire law.. , v 4, . .

PAYNE WIRES TO DIETRICH
Postmaster General Tell Senator
Why Omaha Lost floral Mall
Service rieadqoarters. .
Senator Charles H. Dietrich has received
a frank statement from Postmaster Gen
eral Payne at Washington of the reason
for removing the rural free delivery serv
ice headquarters from Omaha. That state
ment was' transmitted to Senator Dietrich
at his home in Hastings In this telegram:
WASHINGTON, July 12. Hon C. H.
Dietrich, Hastings, Neb.: Congrecs re
duced the number of rural free delivery di
visions. We are, therefore, obliged to con
solidate certain districts. ' It was found
most feasible to consolidate one with head
quarter at Omaha. The department has
no discretion but to reduce the number of
districts as provided for by act of con-g-ess.
H. C. PAYNE,
Postmaster General.
Senator Dietrich had become deeply In
terested In the. matter and immediately
took It up directly with the postmaster
general when. It became known what the
department's Intentions were. He urged
the retention In Omaha .of the headquar
ters so long a there appeared any ground
for hope of success.
(From" a Staff Correspondent.)'' '
WASHINGTON, July 13.-(6peclal Tele
gram.) Omaha will be abandoned af head
quarters of' the rural free delivery service
for western division August 1 and Ne
braska will be attached to the middle divi
sion, with headquarters at St. Louis.
The states of Iowa, South Dakota, 'North
Dakota will be placed under' the control of
Postofflce Inspector M. C. Fosnes, with,
headquarters at St. Paul. I
This contemplated change was announced
several days ago and called forth, So far
as Omaha Is concerned, a vigorous protest
from the NebrasXa. senators and congress
men.'' General Brlstow, fourth -assistant
postmaster general,. In speaking .of the
contemplated change .today, saldfe--' ( . ..
"The department has received a letter
of protest from Senator -Millard' and a re
ply has been sent to him. The reasons for
chsnge of the headquarters from Omaha
are that the past session of congress re
duced the number of rurel free delivery'
divisions . from seven to six, and It was
therefore necessary to make an entire re
arrangement and consolidation or' certain
territory in the older divisions In order to
get the number-down to the required num
ber of six. 'The postmaster general and
myself canvassed the situation most thor
oughly and found that the most feasible
thing we could do was to merge a portion
of the western division with the middle
division and remove those now at head
quarters at Omaha to St. Louis. We have
regretted the. necessity for the' change, but
congress in Its wisdom has seen fit to
reduce the number of division 'and there
was no other course open to us."
