that 'tis corporation of which he la the

BOWLER IS FOUND, GUILTY

Jade Berka Imposes Pl SO as
Thirty Dan la-Caaaty 4 ;'
Jail.
A. L. Bowler, colored, charged with dis
orderly oooduct by making tndeceaC remarks
to Miee Jean Kramer on the publlo atreet.
was convicted In police court yesterday aft
ernoon and lined 150 and cost and sentenced
to thirty dsys In Jail. The decision of Judge
Barka was received with applause. Attor
neys for the defence immediately Bled a
bond for an appeal to the district court
and a bill of exceptions "objecting to every
thing connected with the case."
Long before the case wsa called the court
room was packed to Ua utmost capacity
with a crowd of people repEeseatlag almost
every calling and every color, all eager to
hear every word of testimony. Mr. Kramer
waa accompanied' by her. mother, Clement
Chase, Miss Caroline Flblger and Hiss Min
nie Kaplan. The latter two declared that
Bowler had Insulted them a he had Mlas
Kramer.
When the ease wa called Prosecutor
Thomas requested that the court room be
cleared, owing to the nature of the testi
mony that would have to be given and to
save as much a possible the feelings of
Miss Kramer, Attorney Jefferts objected and
Judge Berka refused the request.
Mis Kramer was the first witness called.
Her testimony waa substantially the.- same
as published at the time of the arrest of
Bowler. With the eonaent of the court Mlas
Kramer whispered the words spoken to her
by the negro to the Judge and the lawyers.
Miss Kramer testified In a firm low voice
and with a dignity and composure that
carried conviction.
Officer Bloom who mad the arrest was
the next witness. He testified that he had
known Bowler for fifteen years, and gave
details of the arrest.
Bowler Is 17 years of age, coal black and
medium height and weight. He resides at
354 Burdette street and haa been bt Omaha
elaee ISM. He danlsd la lot th story told
by Miss Kramer, and gave a alronaatantlal
account of hi conduct on th . day of hi
arrest. 1 J f . 1 .
At. th conclusion' of his teatynacn Prose
cutor Thorns called for Mfss Minnie Kap
lan to be pat on the stand and explaining
that a Bowler had volunteered ,th Infor
mation that he had never aof eated a wofcaan.
he dealred to Impeach his testimony. Mr,
Jefferls objected and the objection wa
sustained. -.
Bowler waa th last witness and at the
eoncluaion -of hia testimony. . Mr, ,Jefferia
introduced a motion, attacking th constitu
tionality ' of section 16, chapter xxxvii, com'
piled ordinance, the ordinance under which
the complaint was filed. Th qnemiaa wa
dlacuased at length by the opposing attor
neys, after which Judge Berk -promptly
overruled the objection. .
Two new point cropped out in th tax
mandamua hearing yesterday morning. One
was an admission by the referee that he
had decided to overrule Mr. Council's mo
tion and hear evidence In the case. Th
other wa a direct charge by Attorney Mc
intosh of forgery In the preparation of the
record of the Board of Equalisation.
Ths charge made by Mr. Mcintosh was
evoked by the statement from Mr. Webster
that the record of the board showed that
th corporations had had a hearing.
Tea," said Mr. Mcintosh, "but that part
of the record I a forgery. When th record
is Introduced in evidence your honor will
be able to see that an erasure has been
made; something baa been rubbed out. and
these words have been substituted: In ac
cordance with the request of P. D. Weed
the hearing of all complaints against the
franchise corporations waa fixed for Friday,
January 17, at 2 p. m-. and he clerk wa
Instructed to so notify the corporations.
These words were added after the tajunc
tion had been granted by Judge Dickinson,
and when tt waa aeon that they were going
to be needed. This constitute a clear case
ef forgery, and when the time comes It can
be proved."
Mr. Webster denied this only In general
terms. -
. Jada Rraa Drops a Blat.
Th announcement by the referee that he
had decided to admit evidence waa made
Informally In the course of a private con
versation with the attorneys. Heretofore
he ha always employed th word "if"
while speaking of this phase ef the case.
but yesterday he dropped It and referred
to th admission of evidence aa a foregone
conclusion. "As I have aald before," he
resumed, "the trend of the Inquiry will be
very narrow and perhapa you will think
that soma of my rulings aa to th admls
slon and exclusion ef testimony will be
somewhat arbitrary, but by the time we
reach that part of the inquiry I shall have
made np my mind pretty thoroughly as to
what Una I wish to hear evidence on."
Mr. Webster manifested not a little ran
cor yesterday while discussing the case.
During the course of his argument. Mr.
Mcintosh wa constantly plying him with
questions, and then irritated - him. Sev
eral times h seemed goaded almost to th
point of personal vlolenea. During all
this ths referee appeared to somewhat
favor Mr. Webster. "Mr. Webster ha the
floor," and "We'll hear from Mr. Webster
now," were the remark he' used often by
way of gently calling Mr. Mcintosh to
order. '
W, hater Defeats IteeaedU.
'Counsel haa attacked th correctness of
the record made by the Board of Equal ixa
tion," aald Attorney Webster. "As a mat
ter of fact, your honor, that record waa
absolutely correct, absolutely formal and
regular in every way. and unless the coun
sel can break thla down la some way his
case must tall to the ground. Here ia
record made by a quasi-Judicial body
cioueu win judicial autnonty, and no
court will permit that record to be attacked
collaterally by laaulag a. writ of mandamoa.
AU thla court can do ks to Inquire, 'Was
thr
franchise, but aa easement. This 1 trv,
as regards th street railway company. Aa
easement or municipal franchise differs
from a corporate francblo la that tt lacks
the power of perpetuity and for that reason
can't be regarded as a distinct entity.
"The Omsha Street Railway company has
three of these easement, which are per
mit or privileges granted it by the city
to lay tracks and run cars over certain
specified streets, aod they cover various
periods of time. One of them. I remember.
Is very short-lived and expires. 1 think.
sixteen years. But the company Itself
may live fifty or even 100 year. New then,
it will be readily seen that the easement
can't, be considered as part of th com
pany, because they are not co-extenslvs la
point of duration. Te tax th easement
would be to tax a thing that dee not ex
ist.?
"It will be sixteen years yet before the
easement, a you call It. will pass out of
existence." aald Mr. Mcintosh. "Would It
be Improper to tax It In th meantime"
Mr. Webster answered that he wasn't
ready a yet to taka up that phase of th
case.
Mr. Mcintosh asked another question:
"Mr. Justic Brewer say that what prop
erty Is worth for Income and sale It Is
also worth for taxation. Do yon deny that
thla applies to the street railway company?"
Mr. Webster replied that he would re
serve the right to follow his own plan of
argument.
When he feels the thorn puncturing his
logic, your honor," said be, "hs tries to
draw me away by asking Incompetent ques
tions, hoping that both the court and I
will forget about it."
Remedy the Ballet.
Mr. Webster went on to say that the
people have a remedy against unequal taxa
tion, and that that remedy lies in the power
to elect officers who will obey the law by
assessing a uniform tax. In support of
this he cited a Missouri case. The Board
of Education of 8U Louis applied to the
state supreme court for a writ of man
damus to compel ths state assessing board
to assess property at its fair cash value
and the writ was denied. The reason for
the denial wa that th people had the
right to elect assessors wbo would obey
the lav; that the presumption wsa that
these assessors hsd obeyed the law, there
beinit no evidence to the contrary, and that
the court did not feel warranted la taking
evidence on that point.
"Now," he resumed, "I caa readily an
ticipate th poaiiion which th court will
take on this case. 'I should Ilk to know
why they didn't complain agalaat every
wholesale bouae In Omaha r it will say,
'as well aa against the corporations. They
fall as well within the scop, of their com
plaint, and since the complaint refers only
to the corporation it smacks of an ulterior
purpose, of prejudice, and a disposition to
be unfair. It is not honest; It is not up
right,, and w can grant no such writ.' "
The hearing adjourned at 4 o'clock and
will be taken up again at 10 o'clock Mon
day morning. It ia likely that Mr. Web
ster will have finished by Monday nooa,
when th admission of Uatlmony will begin.

At th city hall there Is being passed
about, with unconcealed aatlsfactloa, a
copy of the Northwestern Reporter for
March 15. containing the syllabus of a su
preme court ruling that Is expected to save
Omaha money from this time forward. In
effect it declare valid and constitutional
an ordinance making property owners lia
ble for damage when accident occur on
sidewalk abutting their property If they
have been notified that such sidewalks are
la bad repair
Th decision was made In the appealed
case of the city of Lincoln against Janesch,
and Is considered a strong and far-reaching
one. The attorneys for the city are Jubilant
and one of them said yesterday morning:
"We will have a lot of people on the
anxious seat It has been ths eustem of a
good many of them to laugh at us when
told of the bad condition of their sidewalks,
but now when they learn that they must
bear the burden if anything happens they
will cease to laugh and begin to mend. The
sidewalk Inspector is out now and it will
be the plan to have him go over the whole
city examining the walks. Then every
property owner who haa a defective one
will be served with a written notice and a
return stub will be filed with the Board of
Public Works. After that If an accident
oocur because of failure to do the repair
log the party notified will be dragged Into
the suit aa a defendant.

"This will catch a number of foreign
companies and wealthy Individual who own
about one-half of the bad sidewalks in
Omaha, and wa will be abls to get them to
do something in the way of Improvement.
"It haa been suggested that a sidewalk
Inspector be dispensed with and the police
men instructed to act in that capacity, but
thla would be folly, for not one-fourth of
the city la fully policed, while two-thirds
of the damage suits brought against the
city on account of bad sidewalks originate

"There will come a time, and it is not

chances of accident on cinders or cement
are very small except, of course, in win

How
It Looks
It is important that you should
know how Omega Oil looks, so
we print a picture of it here. The
printing on the package is all in
green ink. The trade mark is a
leaf, with the words, Omega Oil.
It's Green." Down near the bot
tom is the signature Higinio
Espinosa. Look for this name,
because it is a guarantee that you -are
getting the genuine Omega Oil,
that has cured so many cases of
Rheumatism, Sore Throat, Cold in
the Chest, Neuralgia. Stiff Joints,
Sprains, Weak Backs, Strains and
Bruises. There are a lot of othier
liniments that may be bought in
drug stores, and a few of them are
pretty good, too, but you of course
want the safest and surest remedy,
so you buy nothing but Omega Oil
when you have a pain or t ache in
flesh, muscles or joints. Never
mind where the pain is, for the Oil
cures in one part of the body, just
as well as in another. 50c. a bottle.
