Fairfield, thrre to begin the arduous work
of aolectlnA ft site tor tne- new normal

the new school' by the Fairfield people and
Inspect the bid, collage building tendered j
to the board. i
When the board retches Hastings on
Thursday It will meet with a warm recep
tion. If the premonitory signs can ba taken
Into account. The latest lasses of the Hast
ings papers received at the state house In
dicate that tha paopIO' of the town are or
ganized Into cnmmltttoa as though they
were to entertain' the" president Instead of
the humM citizen who make up the per
sonnel of the board. .There are three sites
to be inspected at this place and some time
will undoubtedly ho taken. although a stop
of but one day la scheduled. Holdrege will
be the next town to be visited. At this
place the main thing Is the size of the
bonus. The offer made the board last Tues
day when the bids' ware opened was IS,
000 In cash. ' ;
Saturday morning, the rd will return
to the 'city and on the following Monday
will start on a tour of the towns on the

the same day. On Tuesday Cothenburg and
Lexington will be looked aver, and Wednes
day the people of North Platte will have
the pleasant, duty of showing the mem
bers of the board around. The Itinerary
after this Is still the Indeterminate question
which will probably be discussed while the
tour Is being made.
Mar Go After Auditors.
One feature of the Ryan case Is forcing
Itself Just now upon the attention of the
legal department of the state. If the su
preme court should uphold the decision of
Judge Holme of the.- Lancaster district
court .that the constitutional amendment
Increasing the length of term and Increas
ing the pay of legislators was never legally
adopted, It will be a bad thing for the men
who, as auditors of state, allowed the legis
lators to draw more pax than they were en
titled to lawfully.
A statistically Inclined state officer figures
out that $310,000 has been paid out by Audi
tors Babooc'kv Benton, 'Moore, Cornell and
Weston to legislators in excess of the forty
days at H a day' of the old constitution.
' Should the amendment under which these
payments have been made prove to be
Invalid these auditors may have to face a
ult to recover the money because paid out
' without any warrant, of law.
A state officer said today that he did not
how a suit to. recover this money could
b avoided should the court rule against the
stand ' taken by tha state's legal depart
ment. The statute of limitations might run
against moat of these claims, but the law
yers say that It does not operate against the
stats. . .

: years- ago McCormttk killed a woman In a
fit of drunken Jealousy. He was convicted
and sentenced to- twenty years In prison.
Because of an informality that occurred
during the trial, the fact that he was not
In court when the Jury returned Its verdict,
the supreme court reversed the case and
ordered him re-sentenced. Judge Jessen
made It nineteen years this time, taking
Into account the year be had served.
Now comes McCormick and makes the
plea that having served a part of the first
sentence the Imposition of the second one
forces him to serve a second sentence for
the one crime and that this sentence Is
therefore Invalid. It Is urged In the writ
of error filed In the supreme court this
morning that the state can have but one
satisfaction for a crime committed against
Its laws,, that he has rendered such satis

Attorneys for Sid Anderson and 81 John

Chief Donahue. The case was one that
grew out of the strike which paralysed

pressible John Yelser, attorney for the
men, also contended that the Injunction
violated the rights of freedom of the press

state and federal constitutions. It was
urged that the men had a right to say or
distribute any publication, subject to their
liability, both criminal and civil. Imposed
by the laws of the state for anything that
they might have done in violation of pub
Mo or private rights.
The attorneys for Donahue took the po

based on the ordinances of the city of
Omaha forbidding persons to distribute cir
culars and dodgers pn the streets. . The
supreme court held that It was a valid po
lice regulation, since It Interfered only In
cidentally with the rights guaranteed by
the constitution.
ares Stranded Flan.
Superintendent W. J. O'Brien of the
state hatcheries at South Bend has been
busily engaged during the last few days
with his force of men searching the over
flow lakes along the Platte and Missouri
rivers for fish that have been left there by
the receding waters of the rivers. Along
the Missouri he secured 1.600 pike from
three to six inches In length, a lot of 18-months-old
crapplea, some wall-eyed pike
and a very large number of bullhead. The
pike and crapples were taken to Newell
and El wood lakes near Cedar creek. He
found another carload, which will be taken
to McPherson's lake near Schuyler.
This work of the superintendent Is the
first work of the kind that has ever been
done In the state. The national govern
ment regards this work as one of the Im
portant fields for the efforts of the fish
eries department and a force of men is
constantly engaged during the overflow
season in hunting stranded fish and plant
ing them In line .Stream. .The last state
legislature made a small appropriation for
additional labor, which will enable Super
intendent O'Brien to attend to a part of
the work of this character which ought to
be done. Fish left in these overflow ponds
'usually die after the waters have receded
to a certain stage. -
While engaged In this work Mr. O'Brien
found a flfty-flve-pound White catfish. The
fish was taken safely to the hatcheries
and will form a part of the- fisheries ex
hibit at the state fair.

users of waters for Irrigation purposes and
such has been his success that he states
that nearly one-half of the water that
formerly went to waste is saved. He has
visited most of the land owners In the
Irrlratlon district for the purpose of se
curing a proper apportionment of, the
water.
He stated today that one of the
causes of trouble In the past has been the
disposition cf ditch owners to Insist on get
ting all the water called for in their licenses
regardless of the use which they might
make of It. In some cases he found that
the owners of water rights were using the
water on their fields only a part of the
time. When the fields had enough water
the water would be switched oft into the
waste places, to the detriment of appro
prlators lower down on the stream, who
were thus led to complain of the shortage
of water.
Mr. Smith has Induced many of the water
right owners to enter Into an agreement
whereby one would use the water from a
ditch part of the time and the other p
propriator would use it when the other
was done, with the result that better sat
isfaction Is Insured and a higher duty Is
exacted from the water of a given ditch.
This work of systematizing the use of
water for Irrigation purposes Is expected
to add greatly to the resources of the semi
arid region, r.lnce the service secured from
a unit of water Is greatly Increased.

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Bond Inns to Profids Fundi for the
Apparent Deficiency.
STREET LIGHTS AT RAILROAD CROSSINGS
Effort to Compel Companies to Pay
Bills IVow Being Footed hy the
City Haa Been Ret Pa
Foot.
By giving preliminary passage to an or
dinance authorising the Issuance of I?00.0n0
funding bonds, and directing the city
treasurer to enter Into a contract for their
sale, the council last night took the first
steps towards easing the flnanclnl embar
rassment of the municipal government.
The ordinance provides for thirty-year
bonds, to be dated August 1, bearing In
terest at 4'4 per cent. They will be pur
chased by Spltxer Co., of Toledo, rnd
the ready cash will be In the hands of the
city by September 1. Inasmuch as the
amounts In most of the Important city
funds are exhausted nt the present time,
this arrangement will be one of great con
venience, and will remove the possible
contingency of a crippled administration
due to lack of money.
City Electrician Patton's report on the
situation regarding electric lighting of rail
way crossings shows that fourteen lamps at
grade crossings are muintnlned by the city
and seventeen by the railroads, while on
the viaducts three lumps are paid for by
the transportation companies and five by
the city. Attention to this status was
called by a very brief note, and the com
munication was referred to the street
lighting committee.
Railroad Companies Mast Pay.
Action compelling the lines to pay for all
of the grade crossing Illumination is con
templated. Deducting the three viaduct
lamps, concerning which doubt exists as
to their Inclusion in the charter provision
requiring railways to light their tracks, a
sum approaching 1,100 a year might be
saved the taxpayers by a strict Interpreta
tion and enforcement of the law.
Continued failure on the part of the
Union Pacific and Burlington railroads to
repair the Eleventh street viaduct has
caused this passage to be closed for three
weeks, as Its condition Is considered dan
gerous. Last night the council, by resolu
tion, ordered the city attorney to proceed
to enforce repairs at the railroads' expense
in accordance with their contract with the
city. Chairman Rosewater of the Board
of Public Works had reported that he had
exhausted means at his command to have
the repairs made.
Repairs for Asphalt PavlngT.
Repairs to asphalt paving throughout the
city may yet be made this year. A reso
lution introduced by President Zlmman lust
night instructs the Board of Public Works
to read ver Use for bids for the work, and
recites the fact that former bids are re
jected by order of the district court.
Chairman Rosewater of the board re
ported nineteen places where the rains havs
made streets dangerous and specifically in
need of filing and repairs. He asked that
emergency provisions be made to have this
work done. The communication was re
ferred to the street improvements commit
tee. In this connection Councilman Nichol
son ofiered a resolution, which was
adopted, directing that $2,000 be taken from
the general fund for street repairs.
The official date for the opening of the
Capitol avenue market house was set on
August 18 by the council last night In
structions were Issued to the Board of Pub
lic Works directing that bids for space
choice be opened August 15. City Elec
trician Patton estimated that It will cost
$150 to equip the house with electric light
ing facilities. The estimate was referred
to the committee on buildings and prop
erty. Plats of Pa'ks and Boalevards.
City Engineer Rosewater asked for ad
vice as to preparing plats and final or
dinances In connection with four boule
vard and park condemnations and open
ings. He explained that previous councllB
had refrained from authorising the plats
for filing with the register of deeds because
no tender of warrants had been made for
property seized. Inasmuch as the failure
to file plats haa resulted In the property
being taxed, which will dead to complica
tions, the city engineer Is anxious to know
what to do. His letter was referred to the
attorney. t
The appointment by the mayor of George
C. Cockrell as city claim agent was con
firmed. The Omaha View Improvement club In
vited the mayor, council and Board of
Public Works to a "royal good time" at
Thirty-third and Lake streets Friday
night and the Invitation was accepted.
On the motion of Councilman Dyball a
resolution was adopted requiring the
Omaha Belt railway to maintain an elec
tric light at Its Leavenworth street cross
ing between Thirty-ninth and Fortieth
streets.
At the Casino, Lake Manawa, the Floyd
Briggs Stock company will be seen In the
drama "Forgiven."
