IS MAYOR BEYOND THE LAW
Kellj'a Oonmel Brings This Claim to Be
cure Eiecutire'i EileMo.
IMPEACHMENT SAID TO BE ONLY REMEDY
Sonfh Omnlin Mayor Srcka Rsrnpc
from ChnrRCfi of Hrllierr Ilia
Ofllce in Ileyontl the
I'nle of Slntutea.
If Mayor Allen It. Kelly of Botith Omaha
can find an escape from a trial for bribery
through a loopholo in tho law tho criminal
suit brought by tho stnto nenlnst lilra
beforo Judgo Vlnaouhalor will not reach
hearing. When tho caao was called at yes
tcrday'a cession of court Kelly's attorneys
at onco entered a demurrer that la practi
cally a pica In abatement. They Informed
tho court they will ask for a dismissal on
tho ground that Kelly, In tho capacity of
mayor, cannot bo tried under the stato laws
on tho chargo of bribery.
Tho statutes wcro read to show that
only ministerial or judicial officials may bo
subjected to a trial for such offenses. Tho
contention was made that tho offlco of
mnyor Is oxocutlvc, decisions of tho United
dtatcs supremo court being quoted to estab
lish the distinction between tho terms "ex
ecutive" and "ministerial" or "Judicial."
Kelly holds an oxccutlvo office, tho at
torneys argued, nnd therefore ho Is not
under tho Jurisdiction of tho statutes. Ho
can bo Impeached and removed, If ho Is
proved guilty of charges on which tho
prosecution rests, but tho present com
plaint Is Hold to bo defective- for tho reasons
mentioned, and tho caso based on It ought
to bo dismissed. Tho stato's theory Is that
tho odlco of mayor properly comes under
tho head of ministerial and judicial both.
Tho chargo against Kelly Is that ho ro
eclved $2,C0O from eight browing associa
tions tho Omnha Iircwlng association, J.
fichlltr. Ilrowlng company, W. J. hemp
Drcwlng company, Krug Ilrowlng company,
Metz Ilrowlng company, South Omaha Ilrow
lng company, l'abst Ilrowlng company and
Anhcuser-Dusch Drawing company as n
feo for nssurlng tho prlvllego of selling
liquor during tho hours when salo Is for
bidden by tho statutes election day, Sun
day and between midnight nnd 5 o'clock in
tho morning.
Ao Loophole for Kelly.
At tho conclusion of a protracted argu
ment by tho attorneys Judgo Vlnsonhnlcr
overruled tho demurrer. Iu his opinion
tho tltlo of tho statuto Is broader than tho
rubjoct, or, In other words, cxecutlvo of
ficers nro Included under tho terms min
isterial and Judicial, and so this point of
law Is settled as far ns tho present cobo
is concerncu ana tho hear ne will co on

haler postponed tho hearing until December
Ji at iu o'clock.
Thoro Is a second caso against Mayor
Kelly on n similar charge. This was sot
for December 18. On that date Mr. Kelly
will bo called upon to nnswer to tho spo
clflo charge of having accepted cortaln
sums ot money from Thor Joreeson. Mvmn

asked permission to tako tho testimony of
(leorgo Krug, u witness who will bo nb
sent from tho city on tho dato of tho
hearing. Krug's testimony was a denial
in 1010 ot Knowledge rccardlnir thn nav.
ment tho browing company Is said to havo
mado to Kolly. Mr. Krug said that ho had
novcr paid any sum to Kelly, nor had ho
"er promiscu to pay him any sum. Ho

In tho suit of O. It. Sutherland against

Tho ovidenco In tho enso Bhowcd that ono
day last year 0. II. Sutherland, an agent of

TRAMP CLAIMS HIS RIGHTS
Aska DnnutKca (for Ejection from

man Fifty-Cent Fee.
In the United States circuit court
there Is being determined tho right of a
tramp on a freight train. In 1893 Angclo
Pctrctta, an Italian who needs nn Inter
preter to converse with Americans, found
himself nt North Plntto on tho Union Pa
cific railroad. Ho had no money to buy a
ticket, but paid a brakeman CO cents to bo
permitted to rldo to this city. He was In
structed by tho brakeman to get on top of
a box car which was attached to tho train,
and according to his story ho climbed up
nnd sat on tho brako wheel. After tho
train had started, ho testifies, tho conductor
or somo othor trainman camo along and
asked him for moro money, which ho ro-
fuscd to pay. With clubs tho trainmen
then drove him from tho top ot tho car
whllo tho train was running nt full speed.
Ho tell under tho car and lost an arm. Ho
cow asks J15.000 damages.
A Village lllacknmlth Saved Ilia Ht-

Mr. H. H. Dlack, tho well known village
blacksmith at Grahamsvlllo, Sullivan Co.,
N. Y says: "Our little son, fivo years
old, has always been subject to croup, nnd
so bad havo tho attacks been that wo have
feared many times that ho would die. Wo
havo had tho doctor and used many medi
cines, but Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is
now our sole reliance. It seems to dls
solvo the tough mucus and by giving fre
quent doses when tho croupy symptoms ap
pear we havo found that tho dreaded croup
Is cured boforo.lt gats settled." Thoro Is
no danger in giving this remedy, for It con
tains no opium or other Injurious drug and
may bo given as confidently to a babo as to
an adult.

FAIR PLAY FOR THE WIDOWS
Omnha Wotunn'a Club Will Endeavor
to Secure Uc-Knnctment of
Judge Ilaker'a Measure.
A committee of tho Woman's club has
been appointed to urgo tho Incoming lcg-
lsiaturo to pass a law that will give to
widows an absolute tltlo to real property
left by their husbands, Instead of only tho
lire interest thoy enjoy under tho statuto
now in force. In 1889, when Judgo Ben S.
Baker was a member of tho legislature, ho
Introduced nnd secured tho cassago of a
bill providing that ono-holf of tho real
estato of a man dying Intestate should pass
absolutely to hl3 widow, and ono-half to
his father nnd mother In cases whore thero
wero no children, and that ono-thlrd of tho
cstnto should pass absolutely to tho widow
in cases whero thcro woro children to be
cared for. Tho Baker law was doclarcd
unconstitutional on tho technical nround
that Its tltlo was Insufficient, bringing back
mio rorco tno old law providing that the
widow should havo only a life Interest in
the real property of which her husband
died solzcd.
Tho members of the Woman's club hn-
llove that a widow should receive an ab
solute tltlo to her Just sharo of the realty
ion Dy nor nuBLand and bo free to dispose
of It as she may dcslro. With this opinion
firmly planted thoy aro going after the
members of tho legislature to securo a
practical re-enactment of tho Baker law.
