TAFT'S HIGH ESTIMATE OF HIGH COURT Speaks at Unveiling of Monument to Salmon P. Chase, Chief Jus tice After Civil War. Cincinnati. O., May 30. Attacks made by "radical republicans" on the jurisdiction of the supreme court in civil war and reconstruction days were reviewed by Chief Justice Taft here today with the comment that the verdict of the country in retro spect had been in favor of the posi tion maintained by the court and against the attitude assumed by its critics. Speaking at the unveiling of a monument to Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase, Justice Taft said that while the highest court undoubtedly had made mistakes in Chase's time, and at other times, the effect of its rec ord as a whole had been to reaffirm the sound foundations upon which it was built. C!i,r "that th iriinrantes of ner- sonal liberty were maintained by the rnnrt arrainst the nartiaan zeal of the then majority The chief justice made no direct reference to proposals recently made in congress to curb the power of the court, but he recalled that bills pro posing to abolish the court's right to declare the laws -of congress un constitutional were introduced just after the civil war and were de feated. "During the incumbency of Chief Justice Chase," said Justice Taft, popular feeling was strongly aroused against the court. From time to time, by reason of its jurisdiction and its proper exercise, the court cannot help becoming the stormy pefrel of politics. It is the head of the system of federal courts estab lished avowedly to -avoid the local prejudice which non-residents may encounter in state courts.

BUOYANT TOME SHOWS INCREASES IN BANK SAV INGS, BUILD IK G OPERA TIONS AND BUSINESS. ALSO LIVE STOCK MARKET Cattle and Sheep Have Increased in Number UnEmployment is a Thing of the Past. The regular monthly review of the federal reserve bank at Kansas City for April covering conditions in the Tenth Federal Reserve district, which includes Nebraska, paints an encouraging word picture of the fu ture of commercial, industrial, live stock and agricultural interests in the middle west. Cattle and sheep on the ranges have increased in number, hog pro duction has been stimulated, the wool crop has been contracted for at good prices and with the excep tion of winter wheat the outlook for all grain crops is good, the report states. Set New Record Building operations in all the cities of the district and setting a new record in value and extent, pub lic improvements are being carried on in large volume, and the problem of unemployment has solved itself, according to the report. The volume of wholesale and re- tail trade has increased, bank sav ! lags have grown, the volume of I banking business is larger, the amount involved in failures has de creased and everyone reports collec tions better than for some time. Leads in General Improvement The report shows Omaha and Ne braska keeping step with, if not lead ing, other cities and states in the Tenth Federal Reserve district In the general improvement. . z The high points in the bank report for the entire district, which in cludes Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Missouri and Wyoming, are as follows: Cattle on long grass pastures fully up to normal in number. Sheep on the range have greatly Increased. Lamb crop is exceptionally large. Wool crop has been sold at around 50 cents a pound.

Receipts of cattle at six large mar- !j.:ets WPre the largest April receipts since 1919 Grain Receipts Increase Receipts of grain at principal mar kets show large increase. Crop con- ' ditions in Nebraska are given as fa vorable in general except that rain has retarded the sprink work. . Pastures are in splendid condition, more cattle are being fed than for several years, the spring crop of pigs is larger than last year and the live stock industry is on a firmer basis than for the last two or three years. The Nebraska winter wheat crop us estimated at 33,071,000 bushels. as compared with 57,000,000 in 1922. Eastern Nebraska will have a good winter wheat crop. Western Nebraska will have little wheat.

Tool-sJauman Murdock, DEMPSEY IS IN THE PINK OF CON DITION RIGHT NOW Just Keeping in Shape and Could Step Into Ring Tomorrow, Say Reports from Camp. Great Falls, Mont., May 81. Jack Dempsey wants to be fine when he boxes the fast-moving Tommy Gib bons July 4th at Shelby. But -not too fine. The champ is taking. the last week of May off. He will head a fishing party to the lakes relax and rough it. , Jack finds he hasn't enough sur plus weight to train on. He made that mistake once be fore. When he fought Bill Brennan it took him 12 rounds to knock him out. He was too fine. Dempsey is in shape right now. He could fight tomorrow. People wonder why. the e'lamn isn't fat and all out of condition af ter being idle from the ring two years. The reason is this Dempsey trains instinctively all the time Strangely enough being entirely ignorant of the rules laid down for college athletes he hit upon prac tically the same system they use in his own natural way. We were sitting on the edge of the training camp ting on the banks of the muddy Missouri. "I begin my training with my teeth and keep my system clear down to. the tips of my toes. "The stomach is the key to per fect health. "My diet rules are simple and nat ural. "I eat lots of fruit and vegetables. "Once a day I like a well-done roast of beef or veal. Also I relish salads with plenty of olive oil. Olive oil is one of the best tonics for the stomach there is. "Boxers while working hard, are likely to be constipated. "When a man is in condition he has natural appetites. "When a man is out of condition he has unnatural appetites. That is why you have to watch yourself. "I never have been a heavy eater. One good meal a day and two or three light lunches are all I care for. "As to my drinks. I sometimes take coffee with my breakfast. Then I drink a lot of buttermilk. That's good stuff. "I have always followed the old time habit of drinking a little beer or ale. It is supposed to be strength ening. "I don't think a boxer should drink much of it, though, except when he feels he is getting stale or if he is rounding into shape too fast. "A bottle of beer will take the edge off of a fellow when he is too fine. "Another thing when you are shaping up too quickly it is best to Business is Good, Thank You!

FLOODS MENAGE BURLINGTON LINES Further Heavy Rains Fall in Beaver Valley Loss in Bridges is Heavy Over the Lines Lincoln, May 30. Further heavy rains last night and this morning along the Beaver valley, in south west Nebraska, have aggravated the flood situation which has prevailed there for nearly a week, according to advices reaching here. Burlington railroad reports said heavy rains fell at Trciiton, Benkclman and Culbert son Tuesday night. Water ran over the main line of the road near Tren ton. General Manager Flynn and Gen eral Superintendent Lyman of the Burlington went to the McCook di vision of the road Tuesday night to assist in keeping traffic moving over the flood menaced lines. Rains fol lowing the first flood iu the Beaver valley have made the rebuilding of the broken railroad along streams a difficult task. The St. Francis (Kan.) branch of the road is still out of com mission and it may be several days before traffic can be resumed, ofi cials said. Reports from valley counties along the Republican river say the loss from the flood in county bridges, county roads and farm property will be high. In Furnas county alone, it was said, the loss will br nearly a quarter of a million dollars. Frank lin county estimates the losa In bridges at 50,000. Bridge Loss $60,000 McCook. Neb., May 30.
