Company Is Knocked Out and the Agent May Eject Tenants of the Land If lie So Pleases Other Items of Interest Capt Beck Upheld Judge Shiras in the United States Cir cuit Court at Lincoln handed down de cisions in the Winnebago Indian cases in which Agent Capt Beck is sustained and the Flournoy Land Company is knocked out on about every point presented There were two cases one commenced by the Flournoy sublessees and in which an injunction was obtained from the state court District Judge Norns restraining Capt Beck from using his Indian police to evict settlers The case was removed to the lederal court by the counsel for the Government Judge Shiras dissolves this injunction The other case was an action brought on behalf of the Government in which it asked that an order be issued to restrain the Flournoy Company and its 250 sub lessees from leasing lands belonging to the Winnebago Reservation and compel them to yield possession of these lands This was decided in favor of the Govern ment and the opinion recites that an order of ejectment may be issued if demanded The effect of the two decisions is to de clare that those claiming under the Feb ruary leases or similar title have no right to the lands and Capt Beck is left free to maintain the supremacy and control of she government on the reservation The opinions at great length recite the ireaty stipulation and acts of congress in relation to the allotment of lands in sev sralty to the Indians of the reservation and especially the stipulation that the Indians were not to have power to alien ate the lands until after they had been held in severalty for twuty five years 1 he order of injunctional ejectment probably not be asked for at once th the court holds that the Governmei entitled to it Under the decisions Flournoy Company its sublessees and claiming by similar title are declare jave no rights on the reservation and p onstrued to follow that Capt Beck nstructed by thn department may sum marily evict them as tresspassers the right of the Government to full controiof the reservation being declared as neces sarily following its obligations as trustee of the Indians OMAHA EDITORS AT WAR Rosewater Saed for 850000 Damages by the World Heralds Proprietor Editors Hitchcock and Rosewater of Omaha have again entered the district courts of Douglas County to engage in the conduct of a libel suit The World Herald Publishing Company started a damage suit against the Bee Publishing Company to recover the sum of 50000 The suit comes about on account of a story published in the Bee October 3 in which it is related that newspaper changes are impending and that tho World Herald is to be ab sorbed by the Council Bluffs Nonpareil together with reflections on the financial condition of the World Herald The arti 5le went into the particulars purporting to give the inside history of numerous news paper and political deals not on the string together with a resume of the financial standing of the Bees rival The day fol lowing the publication the World Herald came out with a strenuous editorial on the subject This has been followed up by the institution of the suit in question The claim for damages is based on the allega tion that as the paper depends largely on its advertisements and the circulation of such reports would have a tendency to de stroy this business and its credit that therefore it is entitled to the damages asked It is alleged that the World-Herald has a larger circulation than the Bee but both cover about the same territory Nebraska Appointments The following are the
