' provides for a reduction on ail commodities
i of merchandise In the broadest sense, In
i eluding butter, egg?, cured and fresh meats,
j fruits, vegetables, commodities which Qojp
mieeloner Williams claimed were not cov
ered by the sot. Mr. Thompson nnds that
the act does rot provide for the reduction
of the mcney rate, as contended by Com
missioner Williams. Tlfe attcmey general
upholds the contention of Commissioner
Clarke as expressed In a warm dlecusslon
at a recent meeting of the commission.
Mr. Williams had asked the commission
to ask for a reduction on articles which he
said the Sibley act does not cover. Tk
matter was referred to the attorney gen-
j eral.
i The attorney general finds that the only
I of merchandise to which the S per
cent reduction in the Sibley law does not
; apply to la merchandise weighing one
j pound or less, where the rate of trans
' iteration are rajd in advance, and the
carriage of merchandise consisting of

carried for a srecial rate, where the con-
' tract was In force when the act In qjes

i Inspector Allen against the Burllng-ton

' pay a bill for Inspection of oil at its shops
; in Lincoln. Some time ago the star oil
' inspector sent a bill to the Burlington rail
i road for a considerable sum for Inspecting
! the oil used at the shops in Lincoln.
State Oil Inspector Allen received a letter:
j from General Manager G. W. Holdredge ,
i today In which Mr. Holdredge saia me
company refused to pay the bill, and did
i not believe that the law providing for the
i Inspection of oil intended that such oil
! as was shipped in for the use of a com-
pany or rporation. and not offered for
.ale. should be subject to any inspectlon.
j Mr. Holdredge suggested that If the oil
j Inspector desired to test the law on the
' point, he would be glad to have a friendly
' suit brought against the Burlington P.a'.l

The State Railway commission received a

nuui of Kearney telephoned to the com
missioners that he had written a letter pro

Telephewe Caapy Wlal,
The Judgment of the district court of
Cass county dismissing an application of
the city of Plattsmouth for an Injunction
restraining the Nebraska Telephone com
pany from the use of streets was sustained
today by the supreme court. The city of
Plattsmouth passed an erdlnance requiring
the telephone company to put Its w Ires
on Main street under grbund. The com
pany alleged that the street is not con
gested and the poles and wires not danger
ous to pedestrians. The court holds that a
city after having Invited investments by
the passage of an ordinance granting the
use of streets cannot arbitrarily Impose by
subsequent regulations, without necessity
or the demands of public convenience, ad
ditional burdens upon the company, which
are clearly beyond the reasonable exercise
of the police power.
City Esreedeal Its Fewer.
In the rase of Joshua M. Gray against
the city of Omaha, the Judgment of the
district court is affirmed, the supreme
court holding that an ordinance passed by
the Omaha dry council, making it unlawful
for any person to construct artificial stone
or asphalt walks without a license. Is un
reasonable and void. Where there Is no
express power granted to a city to license
the business of sidewalk building. It cannot
be tmplied from the grant of authority to
construct and repair walks In such manner
as the mayor and council may deem n ee

BOY GETS TRADE AT KEARNEY
Willie Doyle is Now Printer at the

After havlrg tried the Kearney Industrial
school for two years. Willie Doyle has
written a testimonial letter to his mother
In Omaha In which he declares he would
use no other. In fact Willie goes so far
as to say It is the only genuine, up-to-date
properly conducted school ef its kind, that
it is all wool and a ygrd wide, is "the
randy" and 'Vvery'-hlrg else that stands
for good.
Willie was a former Omaha newsboy and
boot black. An accident had deprived him
of a leg. But the other leg with the aid of
a hrrutch carried W1!U around as fast as
necessary and faster than most of the
other r.ewsboys and boot blacks with the
common alotraer.t of legs could run. When
a man stood on a corner of the street and
whistled to a crowd of newsies on the

It seems an opportune time to say that the mot nourishing
bread in existence is not in the shape of bread at all. but is com
posed of granules.
That's GRAPE-NUTS.
Xo bread in the world is so nutritious, for (irape-Nuts food
is made of entire wheat and barley and goes through various pro
cesses of baking, during which the starch part is turned into i
form of sugar to be seen glistening in minute particles on each
granule of Grape-Xuts. The food is the easiest to'digest in tht
entire list of all foods and it will pay to use it in place of white
bread and observe how well you feel.
The factories are the world's standard for eleanlir.e-s and
sanitary conditions.
Scores of visitors are escorted thru the factories each day and
see just how Grape-Xuts and Postum are made and how immacu
lately clean every nook and corner is. ' .
Come, you all are welcome.

It takes one all thru and the pictures show the interesting

Graie-Xuts food and Postum are never touched by human
hands in the process of makine.

opposite comer Willie could always bea.
the other boys to the customer.
All this would have been well and goo
but Willie was so assiduous at lils labor
that he frequently remained dows) tow
until tl.e street cars had stopped running
And then it was nearly time for the morn
lng papers to some out. So Willie wax
accustomed to go to a hotel for the night
He would find a snug corner m the corri
dor, lay fcls head on his boot box and
straightway forget the cares of hia busi
ness. But the flinty hearted hotel keepers didn t
tske kindly to Ms patronage. Moreover
Willie's mother did not approve of Ms re
maining down town all night, for Willie
never even telephoned home. But how
could he when the Doyles had no tele
phone? The end -of it all was that Willie eras
brought before the Juvenile court and the
Just judge sent him to Kearney.
In a l'-tter received a few days ago by
his mother Willie is loud in his praises of
the institution and of those who are in
charge of It. He reports proudly tha; he
has learned the printer's trade and does
considerable of the work on the paper is
sued by the school. In short Willie has
become a young cttixen with an object In
life and with a deep seif respect. He has
been safely sidetracked from the broad
road that was leading him down to hood,
lumdora.
Willie sen is love to the Jddre and Mrs.
Towle and says that he will soon be back.
