, . of 1,1 bo rill l
Mrs. Frances M. Kord , secretary of the
Woman's Hoard of Managers of the cxposl-
tldn , has returned from Nashville , where
she attended the meeting of the Congress
of Llherr.1 Hollglons and succeeded In hav
ing Omahu selected as the piece for the
meeting next year.
Mrs. Kord also attended the annual moot
ing of th3 National Council of Women , a
body composed of representatives of the
various national organizations of women In
the United States , ancl feels confident that
this organl/atlon will bo added to the list
of national bodies which will meet In
Omahu next year. She did not wait until
the question of location had been settled ,
but did considerable missionary work among
iho members of the body and secured prom
ises from such women as Susan I ) . Anthony ,
Anna Garland Spencer , May Wright Sewell
and Mrs. Kate II. Sherwood that they would
work for Omaha , The question of location
is usually left to a committee , and Mrt > .
Kord says she feels hopeful that her mis
sionary work will bear fruit.
Concerning the Congress of Liberal Ile-
llglons , Mrs , Kord said she was th only
attendant at the meeting from Omaha , but
she bore an Invitation from a committee ap
pointed to Invite the congress to Omaha
next year. This committee consisted of Kev.
T. J. Mnckay , llov. John McQuold , Ilev. New
ton M. Mann , Ilev. Mary Qlrard Androwii and
Thomas Kilpatrick , Mrs. Kord says that
when the Invitation was read the delegates
In the congress laid especial stress upon -tha
fact that the names oj two ministers of or
thodox churches , llcv. Mackay and Ilev.
McQuold , appeared on the Invitation. Com
ment was made that this indicated that the
ministers of Omaha were broad'inluded and
liberal in their religions views ,
CI.KIIOYMKN OK NASHVILLE ,
Mrs. Kord said she realized the cause ot
these exprtsilons when she learned that the
ministers of Nashville had hotly opposed the
coming of the congress to th.it city , contend-
In ) ; ( hat It was a scandalous nnd disgrace
ful thing and would forever disgrace Iho
churches of the city. Mrs , Kord says that
several pf the clergymen of Nashville
preached against the congress while it was
there and betrayed thu moat bigoted and
iiartow views regarding its purpose ,
In speaking of thu courbo of the Nashville
ministers , Mrs , Kord expressed surprise that
preachers who were so active In lighting
against advanced views in rellijlous matters
/
For Infants and Children.
should show such apathy and Indifference
regarding some of the shows in the Midway
of the Nashville exposition. Mrs. Kord said
come of the Nashville women had told her
about the horrible exhibitions allowed to
opeate on the Midway , some of which were
so Indecent as to be Indescribable. These
women said that no objection had been
raised to them by the ministers and the
women who protested had been helpless.
While In Nashville Mrs. Kord also at
tended a convocation of woman's clulw , con
sisting of a gathering of delegates from clubs
In the east and south , much In the nature
of the regular meetings of the Kederatl-ns
of Woman's Clubs. Mrs. Kord said a simi
lar meeting will bo held In Omaha next
year. In view of the failure to secure the
meeting of the federation , and she had been
promlted that the delegates from the east
a-d south will stop In Omaha en route to
attend the federation meeting In Denver.
Mrs. Kord was enthusiastic regarding the
reception which had 'been ' accorded the
women In Nashville by the women of that
city. She said that after keeping open house
for five months , the women of Nashville
retained their genial manner and accorded
all visitors a characteristic southern welcome
which put them at perfect cape.

Tax Commissioner Sackett has eniployc-d
several additional deputies 'In order to have
the 1897 assessment completed by November
15 , when the assessment roll must be turned
over to the Bo-nrd of Review. He promises
to have the assessment completed by that
date , but the complete tabulations will not be
available until u couple of weeks later. The
footings on real estate values will probably
bo made by November 15 , as the assessors
are now at work 011 the city lots , which will
complete the outsldo work. The assessoro
of personal property will not be able to gel
through until that date and the footings must
bo made afterward. The amount ot pertonal
property that Is being assessed this year and
that has never been on the books before 4s
evident from the fact that over 10,000 blankn
i have already been sent out , anJ it will require -
j quire from 3,000 to 4,000 more to complete
I t.io work. As the greatest number of assess
I ments made In any previous year Is 7,000 ,
j jutt about twice as many people will be as
sessed as have ever been called on to pay
personal taxes before.
There Is naturally some kicking on the
part of people who believe that the fact
that they have never paid taxes before Is
i a sufTicUint reason why they should continue
to bo exempted. Hut the tax commissioner
fays that as a rule he finds that the people
are willing to bo taxed when they under
stand that all are being treated alike. There
are hundreds of people whose names have not
appeared on the tax list , simply because
they did not understand that they were to
j J return the blanks left by the assessors and
the assessors neglected to call for them. The
first blanks are now being received from
the local merchants. The department has
' bean working with the merchants for two
1 weeks , and It Is now believed that there will
bo np dlfllculty In securing the figures based
on the full value of the stocks. The princi
pal mercantile establishments were willing
from the first to return their stocks at their
full Inventoried value provided that other
!
merchants did the same. They have been
consulting between themselves for the past
week or two. and It Is pretty well under
stood .that they will make the . .returnson
this haels.
There seems to bo a gratifying dlrposltlon
on the part of the smaller pr. ( icrty owners
to comply with the spirit of th iiew' ' system
I by returning their property at a , / airalua , -
j tlon. In a great many < asen they do not return -
' turn the blank at nil and declare themselves
' satisfied with the valuation returned by the I
| asievsor. Several Instances have occurred
In which the property owner returned his i
'
. b'lank with a valuation even higher than that
I returned on the assessor's stub. The. peonje
. seem to have reached the understanding that ;
higher valuation will bn offset by a smaller
levy and to perceive the advantage of that
system.

< State-
The Nebraska Telephone company must
bring its books Into court and explain Its
affairs In court in order to escape the alter
native of being compelled by writ of man
damus to reduce Its tolls for telephone serv
ice from $5 to $3 or less a month. So Judge
Scott declared yesterday.
The ruling was made on a demurrer filed
by the telephone company In the mandamus
proceedings recently brought by John 0.
Yolser to compel It to rpduco the tolls. The
telephone company demurred on the grounds
that sufficient facts to constitute a cause of
action had not been set up , and advanced
the argument that the case was beyond the
Jurisdiction of the district court and was
only triable , under the Ijiwa enacted by the
last legislature , before { he State Hoard of
Transpottatlon. Judge Scott overruled the
demurrer and Incidentally delivered hlnualf
of some emphatic opinions regarding the
populist transportation board and of the In
tegrity of the last populist legislature.
Judge Scott first took A ( all but of the- supreme
premo court on account' , of Us decisions In
mandamua proceedings , ilfp Bald the mem
bers had rcudo declslons'ltlut were In direct
conflict with each other ] ( Ho raid that ho
found consolation In 111 * fact that this
showed that the judges wore at least hunting
for the law and might ultimately find It , He
tald khat under the circumstances It would
be mere appropriate forthun to servo writs
of prohibition upon thfml Instead of they
servliiK the writs on hlnl'fJr improper Inter
pretation of the law , * ' J
Turning to the arguirfenti advanced by the
telephone company , thatftbe case was only
1 triable before the Stata-Board of Transporta-
tlon. Judge Scott stated/that It WJB plainly
evident that the board was'fworklng Itself to
death In protecting the people from corpora-
i tlonu. For that reason' * they , had appointed.
i three secretaries to do the additional work at
a salary of $2,000 a year each.
OPINIONS OF SI50UBTAHII3S.
"These secretaries live not been doing
fifteen minutes' work k week on railroad
cases , " declared Judge Bcott , "Jim Dahlman
keeps the door of the democratic camp open ,
Joe Kdgerton roundsj the democrats In.
Granny Laws show them in. For all of which
wo are paying $2,000 a year to each of them.
If Yelser went before 'that board for relief
. ho would never get it. The State Hoard of
I Transportation Is not there for that purpose.
' The members don't know the difference be-
twecn a railroad car and a" duck , They arc
there for political purposed and they are
earning the money which they arc paid. "
Judge Scott held that tbo bill passed by
the last legislature did not declare that the
case could only bo brought before the board ,
Ho Incidentally cliarced that there had -been

that the first boctlon was all right , as It

liavo authority onIy to regulate overcharges
In the transmission of messages and articles
from point to point. Relief could bo secured
from It If an overcharge of K cents was
made In the sending of a message , but the
board could not compel the telephone com
pany to reduce Its telephone tolls from $3
to ? 3 a month. ,
"I would like to know who drafted that
bill , " said Judge. Scott. "I think It must
have been the telephone company. "
From this consldeiatlon of the powers of
the board. Judge Scott concluded that the
only relief Yelser could secure was from a
j | court of emilty and'ho then passed on to the
points In the rase. He held that the allega
tion had been made than $3 was a reasonable
charge for the telephone. If that was true ,
$5 was unreasonable and the prlco would
have to be cut down. The only way the
matter could bo determined was from an In
vestigation of the booka and affairs of the
company.
Judge Scott consequently overruled the
demurrer. He gave > the telephone company
ten days In which to file an answer to tlio
writ , of mandamus. In the meanwhile the
temporary writ Is still in force.
A peculiar feature of the case Is that the
j j telctihciio company set up before the State
I Board of Transportation , when the matter ,
| was before that body , that the board had no !
, i Jurisdiction. In Judge Scott's court the' ] '
i argument was made that the court hod no
j Jurisdiction , hut that the case was triable I
before the board. I i

Thomas Hector , candidate for fchei-lff on

urxjn the records of the district court that
the statement published In The 'Bee ' Thurs
day was true , that the manner In which ho
secured the assignment to himself of the
Judgment In the Drlscoll damage claim
against the- city of South Omaha would not
bear Investigation.
No other conclusion can bo drawn from the
stipulation or agreement filed In the district
court , according to which Hector consents to
allow the assignment to be ECI aside. This ! s
more nor less than a confession that
the charge made In the suit brought by John
M. Shanrahun against him to set aside the
assignment on. the grounds that It was
fraudulent and obtained by deception Is
true. Not only Is this admission made In the
stipulation , but It was on the strength of.t
that Judge Keysor has entered a decree ,
setting aside the assignment.
The history of the case was published
Thursday and Is in brief as follows : After
Catherine 13. Drnscoll had filed a claim for
J3.000 against the city of Sout.i Omaha , al
leging personal injuries received by stepping
through a hole in a defective sidewalk , and
after It had not been allowed , she commenced
suit lii the dUtrlci court against the city for
the amount. The city confessed judgment 'In '
tlio sum of § 2,500. After the judgment lud
been granted nn assignment of it from Cath-
euno Driscoll to Mary Q. Madden , sister of
Thi'inas Hector , then city treasurer of South
Omaha , wan ( lied in the district court. Tne
co iilderatlon named was $100. Later Catherine
Uilscoll alleged tint her t > lgnaturn to the as-
flgmccii. had been teuured through fraud
and deception , and after her death John M.
Hharirahan. administrator of her estate , com-
menccd suit against Mrs. Madden to set abide
thu alignment on the grounds that it had
been fraudulently obtained , Mrs. Madden ,
an-weicd that ehu had arslgnid the claim to j
Ilo tor and later Hector intervened In the
cult as defendant.
Tha whole case win based absolutely and
solely on the allegation that fraud aad been ,
used In securing the signature of Catherine '
IJrV.coll. Hoctcr was prpnent when th.s signature - |
nature ) was secured and was ono of the wit- '
m&u's to it. Hector made no answer whatever - i
ever to this charge and set up no defense to j
the suit.
The stipulation now on file In the office of j
the clerk of the district court sets out that .
It has been agreed between the admlnis- i

"Wo could not say too much in favor of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. About three
years ago one of our children had an attack
of croup and we were afraid that wo would
lose him. Seeing Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy , advcitleed , wo decided to give It a
trial. U gave almost Instant relief and wo
believe It saved the child's life. Since then' '
wo nave never been without a bottle of this ,
remedy In the house and we recommend It
to every one as being an honest cough rem
