Prcmimibly It Is Intended that the unwarj
reader shall bellrvj tint the list of twenty-
oni- rises which Is given Is a statement , in
\vholo o" In part , of the rtcoid of Judge
I'Cht upon the bench The list begins with
volume J7 of Nebraska Ilepoils and termi
nal m with volume 3i ( Volume 27 Is devoted
to ilirlsionn rendoiecl In 18S'J , nt a time
when MOIIO of the present members of the

published is nothing ehort of a libel
The total number of cases , In which rail

Nebrnshi to the present time Is 159 The
period taken embraces the hervlcc of all the
mcmbeis of the eourt ab now * constituted and
In u\v \ of the eight years Judge Post has been
upon the bench A careful Investigation of
tl ese Iri9 cases made from the records of the
couit bliouH that the rillroad compinieti
geneinllj do not win It hhows that of those
cabcs Rovcnty-two , of all sorts , some In
which the tompiiiies were but nominally in
terested Included , were determined in f.uor
o ; Hui comp-inlcs , and that the remainder ,
namely eight-seven , were determined ad- I
voisely to the companies It shows that but
P.fU-tluee of the cases lu which the coiu-
pinlcflvcro Rueccssful were reversals of
Judgments rendered agilnst them In the dis
trict courts , or about 30 per cent of the Judg
ments appealed from wheieas the percentage
of leversale in all cases on the average is
about -10 per cent
SHOW S SULLIVAN'S STAND
It shows that of twentj-one cares which
were decided in favor of railroad companies
In the lower courts and appealed bj the
plaintiffs , eight , 01 about the ciormal 10 per
cent , were reversed so thit In the mittpr
of obtaining reversals of judgments , the
compan is have had ciccldodi ) the worst of
it It shows that of the seventj-two cases
In which railroad compinies were victorious ,
fourteen were cases In which the companies
had prevailed also In the lower eourt It
shows that of these eases In which the rail
road compinlih won lu both courts live were
tried before "reform1 Judges , two of them
having been decided Im favor of the rail
road companies In the district court by
Judge Sullivan , the "reform" candidate for
the supreme bench It shows that the total
amount of the Judgments against railroad
companies which were reversed or set aside
Is $ G7 S77 while the aggregate amount of
i the Judgments against railroad companies
1 rendered or alllrmed In the supreme couit
during the same period Is $7C7 328 II of
which $1.M SU 27. or substantially double

But the charge. IB midc that the court has
been unduly favorable to the Hurllngton
company , and that tin- latter has been uni
formly successful In Its litigation An ex
amination ot the records dcmointritrs that
during Iho period for which the foregoing
statement was made the Hurllngton company
and Its dependent corporations have taken
forty crses to the supreme court on appeal or
error of which seventeen have been reversed
anil twenty-three alTlrmod , that three Judg
incuts of the district courts In favor of Hur
llngton companies have been reversed and
eleven alllrmed , and that of two cases
hi ought originally In the supreme court , the
Hurllngton compinies prevailed In ono and
lost one The percentage of reversals ob
tained b > the company , 42 per cent Is sub-
stPtUinlly that which holds for all Clares
of litigation Nor bixve the causes In
which the Burlington companies been de
feated been mere trlllcs Judgments aggre
gating $20,510 83 hive been nlllrmed against
them , they have been defeated In four at
tempts to escape pasmcnt of taxes all ot
them Involving laigo oums of money , though
not In the form of direct Judgments , and
tlio > have been compelled to btillil and re
pair crossings and viaducts The latter have
cost the Hurllngton road far more and have
bee n of far greater moment to the public
than all the Judgments for Injuries to per-
hon or propertj that have been set aside
Not only Is the list of cases published
taken largely from n period prior to Judge
Post's term of olllce , and utterly Incomplete
and misleading for the period covered , hut It
Is In no degree representative even of the
volumes from which It Is taken Kiev en
volumes of reports are drawn on for material ,
and from these twentj-one cases againut the
Hurlington ami Its dependent or leased lines
are extracted and an- given ns a complete

be remembered tint ten and lltteen yearn

S1NCIJ POST CAMH IN
To lake up the list where It comes to at
end , almost at the threshold of Judge I'Cht'
term and give a partial list from succeed
ing volumes during his term of olllce , ther
IU.1 } bo cited Chicago Hurllngton S. Quinc
Hailioul cmnpaii } against Hlldcbrand , 1
Nebraska , 31 , In which a Judgment agains
11
Is to rely upon the countless sprays , washes , etc. , which form
the basis of the many "methods" now BO prevalent. Such
treatment might avail something if Catarrh \\aa only a local
irritation of the membranes. Hut the disease is not on the sur
face the discomforting irritation of the lining of the throat
is not the disease itself , but simply a manifestation of it.
Catarrh is a deep-seated , constitutional blood disease , and it is
ns easy to put out fire with a sheet of pnpor as to hope to euro
it with local applications. Don't mistake temporary relief for
benefit. Those who last ncason thought themselves benefited
by this treatment will bee , their mistake as soon as the first
chilling blast of winter is felt.
"Tho hprays nnd washes prescribed by
tlio doctors relieved mo only temporarily ,
nnd though 1 used them constantly for ten
yearn , the disease had u firmer hold than
ever. I was in n himentuhlo condition
when I decided to try S. B S 1 at once
began lo improve , mm after taking it for
three months I vvasenred eonipletel ) , the
dicadful diheac.0 was eradicated from my
system , and I h.tvo had no letnrn of it. "
Miss Josn : Ovvrs , Montpelier , Ohio.
Swift's Specific ( S. S. S. ) is the only cure for Catarrh , for it
gees direct to the cause of the trouble the blood forcing the
disease from the system. Those \yho have had Catanh for any
length of time know that each winter finds them moro firmly
in the grasp of the disease than before. Their experience
teaches them that local treatment can do them no good. A
trial of S. S. S. will convince them that it is the proper remedy.
If you are just feeling the first touch of this ofl'onsivo disease
you should begin treatment promptly , for its Hovority increases
each year ; but bo sure to begin right. If you treat only the sur
face , relying upon sprays , washes and inhalations , you may bo
Biiro that a mild case will bo n bad ono next year and a worbo
ono the year later. Begin proinptly to take S.S.S. and bo cured.

COMPILHH SUPPHiSSiS PACTS.
Not only did the compiler of the list pub-
Ishcd omit or suppress as many cases as he
ias cited In what purports to be a complete
1st , but In each of nliw out of the cloven
.olumcs from which cases are taken the
udgments rendered or alllrmed against cam-
unles In the Hurllngton sstem exceed from

iS stated ns the aggregate of such Judgments

aught but deliberate and designed Imposition
