TAX CASE IN SUPREME COURT-
Jud Munger Grants Certificate for Ap
peal from His Injunction.
WHAT RESTRAINING ORDER RESTS ON
Comities Not Involved In Salt Are
Named br Court and the
Record la Made Vp
for the Appeal.
Judge Munger has certified certain fea
tures of the railway tax Injunction cases
to the supreme court of the United States.
These are In such counties as where the
,amount In controversy is less than $2,000.
The general injunction applies to the
great majority of counties in the state
where the amount of taxes in question
exceeds $2,000. and will remain in force
until It Is decided on its merils. Attorney
General Norris Brown, on behalf of the
counties of the state, demurred to the In
junction. The demurrer was sustained and
the bill of the complainants dismissed as
to the counties where the amount in con
troversy was less than $2,C00.
Luton Faciflc Certificate.
The certlncate of Judge Munuer applies
to both the I'nlon Pacific and Chicago,
Burlington & Qulnc.y railroads. The cer
tificate recites at length the Issues in
volved In the entire case, but the essential
feature is embodied In the following order
by Judge Munger:
Now threfore.lt is certified (In the Unt on
Pacific case) that the question of Jurisdic
tion of this court upon the grounds here
tofore states to-wlt: Whether the amount
in controversy between the complainant
and defendants was sufficient to give the
court Jurisdiction over them was the iseue
in which the case was decided, I have
found as to the defendants, A. R. Morrison,
treasurer of Sarpy county; Jud Holoomb of
Polk county, Chr. Schavlland of Madison
county; C. T. Weekes of Greeley county;
W. L. McNutt of Valley county, and W. A.
George of Custer county, that the amount
in controversy between the complainant
and each of them, as determined by the
amount of taxes sought to be enjoined
against him was less than $2,000. exclusive
of interest and costs. It was the duty of
the court to sustain their demurrer and
dismiss the bill as to them, which was
accordingly done. I further certified that
as to the above named defendants, except
A. R. Morrison, treasurer of Sarpy county,
the total tax In each of said cases of which
the defendants are respectively treasurers
of the counties named, exceeds the sum of
$2,000, but that before filing the bill the
complainant tendered the defendants a
portion of the tax, leaving a balance of
less than $2.uu0 In each of said counties.
That as to the other defendant. A. R. Mor
rison, treasurer' of Sarpy county, dismissed
out of. the bill, the tax levied In Sarpy
county exceeded the sum ot $2.0n0, and that
before riling the bill of complaint complain
ant had tendered the defendant a portion
of the tax, which tender was refused, and
that the amount tendered was less than
$2,000, and for these reasons I held that
the court had no Jurisdiction over either
of the said defendants dismissed out of the
case.
1 further certify that It la the only ques
tion of law upon the pleading and processes
for the decision of the supreme court of
the I'nited States, that this certificate Is
granted at this term, In which the Judg
ment In the case was entered.
In the Burlington Cases.
In the Burlington cases the general word
ing of the- certificate Is similar to that ot
the Union Pacific, except as regards the
various counties involved. In this instance
In the Burlington cases Judge Munger
says:
I having found as to defendants, M.J.
Hlgglns, C. J. Malmsten, treasurer of Daw
son county; W. C. Johns of Garfield county,
R. E. Counce of Hayes county, t. A.
Uecher of Platte county, Jud Hulcomb of
Polk county, and Peret Dahlsten of
Wheeler county, the bill shows that the
total tax levied In the several counties was
In each county less than $2,000; that as to
defendants, A. F. Carlson, treasurer of
Blaine county; H. M. Flory of Chnso
county, Robert O. Fink of Douglas county,
W. H. Nlckles of Grant county, and b. K.
Sprague of Merrick county, the bill shows
that the total tax In each county exceeds
the sum of $2,000, but before tiling the bill
of complaint the complainants tendered
th defendants accepted a por-
- . .
of the taxes, leuving a uai-
nf less than $2,000 In eacn
tion of
ace
of said counes; that as to eacn of toe
others dismissed out of the bill, the tax
levied in the counties of which they were
the respective treasurers exceeded the sum
of $2,000, but the umount which the com
plainant asked to have enjoined In enh
county was less than $2,000, and for these
reasons I held that the court had no juris
diction over either ot said defendants. I
further certify that It is the only ques
tion of law upon the pleading and
Drocesses for the decision of the supreme
court of the United States that this cer
tificate Is granted at the term In which
the Judgment in the case was entered.

BIRTHDAY FOR MAJOR WILCOX
Sixtieth Anniversary of His Advent
Made the Occasion ol a
Fleasant Surprise.
Major R. B. Wilcox was 60 years old
Thursday .rld the occasion was taken ad
vantage of by the employes of Browning,
King & Co.'s establishment, of which the
major Is the manager, to give an expres
sion of their good will. The store force,
with a number of Major Wilcox s mends.
assembled during the early evening at me
home of Ed Wilcox, 'on Binney street, near
to the mfejor's home, In order that they
might make a descent upon the major In
proper form. In the meanwhile Major Wil
cox had to attend a Grand Army meeting
downtown, but he was only permitted to
go under the assurance that he would re
turn before I o'clock. It was about 9:16
when the major put In his appearance, and
as he entered the darkened room the lights
were suddenly turned up and a houseful
of people were there to greet him. The
major recovered sufficiently to realize the
ittuatlon and the evening was enjoyably
passed In cards, refreshments and social
diversions. An Incident of the event was
the presentation to the major of a hand
some g stand lamp by his friends and
associates In the store. Major Wilcox ex
pressed' his appreciation of the gift most
feelingly. The pleasant affair continued
until a late hour, and the opinion was ex
pressed that hs Is not yet a subject for the
chloroform experiment, although he has
reached the age of three score.

TROUP DENIES LANGUAGE
Alleged Decision in World-Herald is
Deliberate Misquotation.
ANIMUS BACK OF PAPER EASILY EXPLAINED
It la Because that Paper Has
Been Exposed in Its Own
Game of Sharp
Practice.
When Judge Troup was asked concerning
the report In the World-Herald purporting
to be "the decision of the court" in the
suit in which he had denied the Injunction
sought by that paper in the matter ot
advertising the scavenger tax Hat, he said
he did not care to enter Into a newspaper
discussion touching the question beyond
saying that he was grossly misquoted.
Asked directly If the language used and
quoted as his was so In fact, Judge Troup
said:
"It was not. You and other men were
here and heard what I said. I did not
use the word lawless of any person or any
body of men who have public duties to
perform under the law, as I have."
The Judg; declined to be quoted at any
greater length In the matter for the rea
son, he snld, that he considered It beneath
the dignity of a court to enter Into outside
discussions of language used In making
oral decisions.
The animus of the World-Herald In put
ting Into Judge Troup's mouth Imputations
on the republican county treasurer and
county board Is understood by every one
In the court house. County Treasurer Fink
tripped the World-Herald up In the sharp
practice It was pursuing to gt county ad
vertising and It has been trying to block
wash Mr. Fink ever since.
"That kind of mistreatment Is all I have
to expect of the World-Herald," said Mr.
Fink. "When I had my attention called
to this alleged report I immedltely went
to Judge Troup and he Indignantly denied
ever having uttered the language quoted.
Others who were present say the same
thing. The only point at Issue In the
case was whether the World-Herald was
entitled to an Injunction that would com
pel me to advertise the scavenger list In
that paper.. The court said It was not
entitled to It and that Is all there is to it."

BREEN FIRM IN HIS BELIEF
City Attorney Says the Treasury
Me rarer Will Come Off on
Scheduled Time.
The city legal department stands Arm on
Its attitude regarding the merger of the
county and city treasury and tax' depart
ments. City Attorney Breen and Assistant
City Attorney Herdman say the Intentions
of the charter will be fully carried out and
the city treasurer and tax commissioner
cut off at the end of their terms next M;iy.
"The Clement, or Plattsmouth case, has
no more application to the abolition of the
city treasurer's office and the shifting of
the duties to the county treasurer, than a
decision In a horse ca.se," says Mr. Breen.
"The- cases are not similar. Principles
enunciated In the syllabus of the opinion
are a great deal broader and stronger than
the opinion itself. We are all right on botli
the mergers and they will go through with
out a hitch. The amount to be saved will
not be anything like what It should be.
The corporations butted In and caused this.
But if I am alive and well at the next ses
sion of the legislature this will all be
changed If anything I can do will accom
plish It."
"The change regarding the munner of
making the aasesament and levy and abol
ishing the city tax commisHioner Is per
fectly safe," says Assistant City Attorney
Herdman. "There Is no use getting alarmed.
We had this supreme court decision before
us when we decided that separate laws
were not necessary to make the mergers.
The separate bill regarding the tax com
missioner's office Is riot constitutional. It
would have been better If It had been
vetoed along with the county treasurer
amendment. All It does, In reality, is to
odd to the county assessor the title of city
tax commissioner ex-ofneio.
"The assessment for the city and school
board taxes for 1906 Is being made now by
the county assessor. He Is making the
usual county assessment. That Is sufficient.
The county commissioners can make as
many levies on It as they are authorised
to do by law. The city will certify Its
levy in July for 1906 taxes and the school
district should do the same thing."
Arrested Wrong Man.
J. H. Hunter waa arrested Thursday even
ing at South Omaha on a warrant charging
him with being implicated In a fraudulent
scheme to obtain money from certain em
ployes of the Armour Packing eninpaiiy,
under the promise of securing them em
ployment as laborers on the Panama canal
work. When confronted by the complain
ing witnesses In Judge Anderson s court It
was discovered that he was the wrong man
entirely, the w'tnexses fulling to Identify
him as the man wanted. Hunter was there
upon Immediately discharged from arrest.

OMAHA FOURTH IN THE LIST
Gate City Holds High Place in the Building
Record of Country.
CONSTRUCTION S.H0WS GREAT ACTIVITY
March Experience Indicates that an
Euoruious Amount of Build
ing; Will Be Done in
United States.
According to statistic compiled by the
American Contractor showing building ope
rations in the principal cities of the coun
try, Omaah stands fourth in the list In
gain during Murch over the same period
of the previous year. Toledo leads with a
percentage gain of 1,252, Kochester Is sec
ond with ti-W, Davenport third with 360 and
Omaha fourth with 270. Tlio Contractor
will say: "The gains in the largo centers
of population, New York, Chicago and
Philadelphia, were expected as a natural
result of national prosperity. Omaha, Ues
Moires, Harrisliurg, Pittsburg, Nashville
und Milwaukee, solid and conservative
cities, nut given to spurts In building opera
tions, show an exceptional increase. Taken
Into consideration that the last year was
considered remarkably active In building
operations, the further increase this year
clearly Indicates that an enormous volume
of building construction will be undertaken
In every section of the United States."
Kedlck Will llull.l Ayuyi.
John I. Redlck is to put up a $10,000 store

out Argument.
