(From a Staff Correspondent.)
, LINCOLN, Nov. J6. (Bpeclal.) State
Bank Examiner Fred Whltmore left last
night for O'Neill to make an examination
of the Elk horn Valley bank, that cloned
Its doors yesterday morning. Members of
the State Banking: board and Secretary
Royce wera greatly surprised at the re
ceipt of news of the failure, as the sworn
statement of the president of the bank,
Bernard McQreevey, filed last August,
no-wed the bank to be In good condition.
Tha statement conflicts with the state
ment Mr. McGreevey had published this
morning. In the published statement Mr.
McGreevey said he had given a note for
S.000 to tha bank In 1W2, while In his sworn
statement filed In August he said the bank
waa carrying only f$ tlx months past due,
and only IDSO worth of paper under six
months and over thirty days past due.
Tha stockholders, he swore In that state
ment, were liable for only H.000.
Tha bank waa examined by Fred Whlt
mora last December, and at that time there
seamed to be nothing wrong In Its condi
tion. It had not been examined Bin re be
cause it was not under suspicion, and tha
law does not require an examination oft
ener than once a year. It H not known for
how" much the bank has fulled nor will It
be known until Mr. Whitmcre makes his
report to the Stale Hanking board, which
will be several days yet. Neither Treas
urer Mortensen nor Secretary Royce
thought the failure would In any way
effect the state at large, though, naturally,
In the vicinity of O'Neill considerable ex
citement would result. The sworn state
ment signed by President MeUreevey filed
last August Is as follows:

Allen Comes Back at Conrt.
Former Senator Aln, attorn y for the
Krug Brewing company In a case In which
his briefs were stricken from the records !
and,h was roundly censured by the su
preme court at Its last sJitlng for the con-i
tents of the brief, today filed a motion to
have the case reinstated and the re.ords
expunged. In hia brief the ex-senator
brings to bear on the court all the sar
casm for which he is t.oted, and he explalna
In detail the origin and meaning of some
of the statements to which the court took
exception. In part he said:
Respecting the brief which was stricken
from the files, we have to say that we have
likewise reread It and In our Juugme.it Its
chief fault is In Its laudatory c.Riac.er,
dui we nave yet to tearn mat lauoa.ion is
disagreeable; but wtun the references are
understood we think the court will con- '
elude there is nothing offensive In th m.
That statement about S 1 mon Noble
. "dispensing with Justice" nt f era to an o d
"gentleman the writer knew when a toy, a
.. blacksmith, who occupied the offlce of Jus
. ties of the peace time out of ml. id. When
, ne convened crurt nts wue gave mm l
best room in the house, put on a hlKli crl
V. lar and an old-fashioned ' stock, and, Fit
ting down at the table, announced that
"The court is now In session to dlpeme
' with Justice," meaning, of couiae, to dl-
fenne or to administer Justice. It WaS an
rlh bull. " v
The reference to Lord Glonvlll's De Legl
bus, we think the court will find not of
fensive. De leglbus Is m rely a, compila
tion of some of the laws of early England.
Lord Olanvlll was not a great jurist In
the sense In whii h that express on It now
used,, and obtained his chiuf f me, as you
will recall, bv examining Micau ey's "His
tory of England." as the shire-reeve or
- chief officer of an Engl'sh shire or ca' n'y.
After explaining In detail to the court ho
origin of many of the quotations he used,
Senator Allen ha tils to say:
After carefully re-examining the brief
the only thing we find at wh ch the court
could take umbrage is on p. tee it, where.
In speaking of the cimml s onr Ign ulng
t lie rule In Pyle against Warren. 2 Neb.
201. we say: "But this wa befo e the
splendid Intellectual genius and profound
learning of the commissioner Illumined
with unusual br't'iancy the darkest re
. ceSfS and caverns of Jurlsprudeno ." It l
. mlte likely the s a einont ought not to
have been made. It Is certainly lauda'ory
. almost to the point of edulation. a d It
i- clt-arly protrays an overdrawn sluatl'n;
i nut it is uimcuu to aesi wirn it runner

trol of It, It Is withdrawn from the rec

I Offer the Utmost--
A Dollar's Worth Free
You deposit nothing. You risk uoth lug. You promise nothing. There is
nothing to pay cither now or later. I want everyone, everywhere, who bag
not used my remedy to inuke this test. ,
For nuue is no ordinary remedy. It represents thirty years of experiment
thirty years at bedsides in Inlioratorlos nt hospitals. Thirty years of the rich
cut experience a physician can have. I tell below wherein JJr. Snoop's Restora
tive differs, radically, from other medicines.
My offer is as broad as humanity Itself. For sickness knows.no distinc
tion in its ra vanes. And the restless patient on a downy couch is no more
welcome thau tho wasting sufferer who frets' through the lagging hours in a
dismal hovel. . '
I waut no reference no security. The poor have the same opportunity as
tho rich. To one and all I say "Merely write and aMk." Simply say that you
ha to noer tried my remedy for I must limit my offer to strangers those who
hare used Dr. Shoop's Uestoratlve need no additional evidence of its worth. I
will send you an order on your druggist He will give you free, the full dollar
package. ;
. - Inside Nerves!
Sickness loses half Its terrors when we
strip medicine of its MYSTERY? For most
all forms of sickness start In the same way.
The nervue are weak. Not the nerves that
govern your movements and your thoughts.
But the nerves that, ungulded and un
known, night and day, keep your heart In
motion control your digestive appmutJ
rgulte yourllver operate your kidneys.
These are the nerves that wear out and
brak, down.
Tt doe no good to treat the ailing; organ
the Irregular heart the disordered llvrr
the retx-ll.oua stomuch the deranged kid
neys. They are not to blame But go back
to the ntrvw that control them. There you
will rind' the seat of the trouble.
There is nothing new about this Aotbing
any iihysli-ian would dispute. Hut it le
inuliittii for Dr. Klioop to apply this knuwl
titf-o put it to practical uw, Dr. Snoop's
Rastomtlve la the rult of a quarter cen
tury of endeavor along this very line. It
docs not duMt theorgan or deadeu D o pain
-'jut It dot-e go at once to tha nerve the
inside nerve the power nerve and bulils
it up, and strengthens It and makes It well.
Dr. Shoop's
tensen said todnay that It waa useless
to make recommendations while tha con
stitution remained as It Is, cons-qently
he would not take the time to tell the
legislature or the governor what ought to
be done. Mr. Mortensen Is handling the
money that comes into his office aa though
one dollar was sa good as another, and
he has received more compliments on his
conduct of the office than any other treas
urer ever did. f

tax agent of the Burlington railroad, R. D.
Pollard, called upon County Treasurer
Dirks of this county one day this week
and tendered htm the sum of $7,916.16 In
payment of the railroad tax, which accord
ing to the tax books amounts to the sum
of $13,006.02. The tender was made uncon
ditional, and the agent only aeked for a
receipt for the amount offered on account
of the taxes. He Informed the county
treasurer that he would hold tha tender
good and pay the same any time he might
see fit to call for it. The matter has been
referred to the county attorney, and he will
give the treasurer a written opinion in a
few days.
HUMBOLDT. Neb., Nov. W.-(Speclal.)-
The tax agent of the Burlington railroad
made a visit to Richardson county this
week and in keeping with the policy inau
gurated by that corporation in other parts
of the state, tendered Treasurer Zook the
sura of $11, 800.31, which they claim is the
amount for which the read la liable. Inas
much, aa the books of the treasurer show
the amount of ,$17,68.70 levied against the
company, the treasurer refuaed the tender.
The tax agent has taken the assessed
valuation of last year and added thereto

son 4k Nebraska railroad waa assessed at
$3,700 per mile for Its forty-three miles of
road In this county, making a total of
$:SS,22. and upon this portion they express
a wllllngne to this year pay $.SI0 per

for taxation at $4,500 par mile on twelve
miles, the company extr"ses a wish to this
year pay bpon a valuation Of $3,400 per mile.
The matter will probably be carried to the
higher courts before the liability of the
road is fully determined.
ALLEGED FORGERS AT TECIMSEH
i
Ose Pleads Rallty and the Other Does
ot Deny the Charge.
TECUMSEH. Neb.. .Nov. . (Special.)
The young man who waa arrested here
Wednesday for vagrancy and who gave his
name as 8. Simmons, was given a hearing
In the county court today and sentenced
to ninety days in Jail. In the meantime
an Investigation of bis case will be made,
for the officers are of the opinion 81m
mons In a forger. He was going over
the county soliciting fund for art ailment
of the body he claimed he had, stating that
a surgical operation was necessary and
that he was not In condition to work for
the needed money. When apprehended
Simmons had misappropriated $2 at a farm
house where he had been given alms.
When searched at tha jail $40 was found
on his person. He also had what pur
ported .to be a written statement of his
physical condition from a physician, and
the same was over a sworn statement made
out over the name of a notary. Simmons
was confronted with the proposition that
the names had been forged, and he did
not deny It. He stated, however, that the
paper he had. been showing was a copy
of an original which had art one time been
In his possession. He also admitted that
the seal on the document was nothing more
nor less than the aenl from his mother's
wedding certificate. He seemed willing to
serve the term.
The young man, Joseph Geusel, who was
brought back from St. Louis to answer
the charge of forgery, says, he will plead
guilty. When asked by the sheriff If he
wanted an attorney he stated that he did
not He said It would be an unnecessary
expense.
"I am up against It," Oelssel went on,
"and I am sorry for it I deserve a term
and shall do nothing to keep from serving
It. If I had kept my head I would never
have committed the defd( but I allowed
myself to drink too much liquor and must
suffer the consequences."
Qerssel forged the name of Louis Schacht
of Cook to two check, one for $10 and one
for $15, and then skipped out for St. Louis,
where he waa apprehended. Ha Is a stran
ger here, having been engaged at farm
work In the Cook neighborhood.
CASS C'OVXTV ACCEPTS TAXES
County Attorney Tells Treasurer to
Take Partial Payment.
PLATTSMOUTH. Neb.. Nov. 26.-(Spe-clal.)
The citizens of Piattsmouth read
in The Omaha Bee this morning that "Ac
cording to the opinion- oj Attorney General
Prout those county treasorers who are ac
cepting a portion of the taxes assessed
against railroad companies, even under
protest, are violating the law. Mr. Prout
believes the county treasurer should col
lect all of the taxes at once or none."
Cass county's attorney, Jesse L. Root, in
a written opinion to County Treasurer W.
D. Wheeler, in answer to the same ques
tion, wrote: "You are advised to receive
said money and receipt as part payment
of their- taxes for this year. The tender
t not In payment of the tax, but on ac
count: the receipt by you will not preJudiAe
the rights of the authorities to collect the
remainder. On the other hand, a refusal to
accept will place the county where it will
be out of the use of the money offered un
til the end of the litigation with the rail
road company."
Complying with the above opinion,
County Treasurer Wheeler accepted from
R. W. Pollard, tax agent, the sum of $15,
571.63, leaving a balance due from the Bur
lington company of $3,67101, the amount
of taxes due for 1904. The supreme court
will probably decide whether or not the
railroad company must pay that amount.
The Missouri Pacific. Railroad company
has paid In full the sum of $17,888.09, being
the amount of personal taxes due Cass
county for this year. The Rock Island has
not pald( its Cass coufity personal taxes.

NOT FOR BEST FARM
In the state.
"I would not be afflicted as I was four
months ago for the beat farm In the slate
of Arkansas. I can give proof and reference
of the wonderful cure to all who are a tc
ted as I was. Pleaae publish my loiter that
I may advise the uOllcted." W. E. Wullis,
Plggot, Ark., Boa 26.
The experience of Mr. Wallla is that of
thousands, of others who suffer for years
with the most painful forms t f liemorrhods,
or piles, and after trying everything they
hear of, give up all hope of a cure and look
for temporary relief only. To all such a
little book published by Pyramid Trug Co.,
Marshall, Mich., brings glad tidings, as It
tells all about the cau&o und euro of plies,
and is sunt free fur the abklr.g.
"I saw so much in the papers about the
wonderful cures effected by Pyramid Pllo
Cure, I determined to give it a trial. I
bought from my druggist one fifty cent
box and used It as directed, and by the
time I had used the lat "pyramid'' I wus
entirely cured; in four days utter I began
to use the "pyramids'' all inflammation
was gone. I was j.erfwtly easy all thu
time, the excessive discharge stopped at
Ovioe, and stools became easy and gentle.
"I was unable to ge my own firewood for
four months, and half the time when I
reuld walk at all I had to walk half bent.
I used many pile lemedlcs, salves and oint
ments, all to no t-nject until I uaed one fifty (
cent box of Pyramid I'll Cuae tnd wtu
