dered today by Deputy Attorney General
Noma Brown. The eftect of hla pronun-
cUmento, If ypheld by the courta and en-
forced by the officers of the. law. will ro-I
quire all foreign Corporations to reorganlzo
under the Nebraska, lawa and pay Into the
treasury foe sufficient to. liquidate prac
tically every cent of the state's floating
debt of UtOW.OOO.' - ; . t
The matlet Wis' brought before the at
torney general when J. ST Roberts, acting
for the aacreftary -of state," refused to reg
ister the article., of- -the Omaha Electrio
Light and Power company, a corporation
organised .undor the laws of Maine. Bti'.l
It la said that the' largest business Inter
ests of the. company will be In Omaha.
The articles) of incorporation were re
turned to Attorney W W. Morsman and
Attorney E; M. Morsman' by Mr. Roberta
this afternoon. Along with the articles waa
a letter, explaining why the articles were
ot recorded.
In the missive It la stated that the cor
poration, was not organised under the laws
of Nebraska. There waa no evidence that
the direotofs ot the concern had passed a
resolution endorsing the Mti of Nebraska
and agreeing fo' fulfill their' conditions. In
fact the company and Its directors had re
fused to do so. So the articles could not
become a, part of tho publlo records of the
state.
It waa -expected that the attorneys for
the company would start mandamus pro
ceedings and thus bring the matters be
fore the courta. ......
The iotitest with the Omaha company
follows M a result of the , Investigations
that have been conduoted In the office of
the secretary., of-- etatn regarding foreign,
nd domestic-, corporations. According to
the view of tho .'secretaty of state -each
corporation should arta'must pay a filing fee
on that part of its capital stock within
the Jurisdiction of ,the state courts. This
would make a tremendous amount of reve
nue and 'would practically wipe out the
floating Indebtedness of tho state.
This means a trifle more than $2,000,000
for the. benefit mt th. people of Nebraska.
Some of the local points Involved would
vex the brains of Philadelphia lawyers.
The controversy involves the constitution
and the federal statutes concerning the
tights of state to conduct and control and
regulate business corporations within lta
borders. On this point thej-e are mors than
TOO decisions. ,-, ,
A letter was forwarded1 to the attorneys
Interested setting out briefly the reason for
the refused of the state to record the arti
cles. In this Is olted the lack of compli
ance with the laws of Nebraska and from
the start the state will be on the defensive.
The large corporations doing business In
the stats will be subjected to heavy filing
fees ln oase the stats wins. The Standard
Oil company would have to pay 130,000,
while the Pullman and other large corpora-

. 1,ryn. I". Angered,
W. J. Bryan is much displeased over the
Denver manifesto 'of Senator Allen, Gov
ernor Poynter and a few other populists.
In the Commoner, tomorrow he devotes sev
eral columns to declaring that It was ' an
open surrender to 'the mid-road populists
Who had sold out the populist party ln 1900
by either voting in secret with the repub
licans or fighting the fualonlsts.
Mr. Bryan severely criticises the mani
festo.' saying that its most noteworthy
part is Its faUure to deal with the live Is
sues of the day. He says: -
Some populist seem te think that the
suocesa of their party depends upon the
breaking up of the democratic party; some
. of them have not forgiven the democratic
party for having indorsed some reforms
first advocated by populists. Instead of
rejoicing that a great party organization
has espoused the Income tax, the election
of senators by direct vote, and direct legis
lation, some of the populists were Jealous
enough to complain that we had stolen
their platform. it these reforms were
urged by tl)e populists merely aa a means
of winning a party victory there might be
some excuse for a desire to monopolise the
advocacy of them, but If advocated because
they were good for the people, then the
friends of these reforms ought to have wel
comed Indorsements from -every source.
The situation -can be met by. an appeal
to (he aemkrs of the populist party. Let
them exercise their right to be seard be
fore the populist party In converted Into
sn assistant to the republicans.
Certificates to Medics.
One lumdred and sixty-three certificates

"Lawyers Plead for Mrs. Ullle.
"A powerful appeal Is contained in the
brief filed today In the supreme court by
Matt Miller and C. M. Aldrlch In behalf of
Lena M. Lli:ie, the David City woman con
victed and sentenced for life for the murder
of her husband.
It Is Insisted that the evidence as pre
sented by the record Is weak and fugitive
and Woes not appeal to the Judgment and
reason of sound and Intelligent Impartiality.
It Is Insisted that what was really done
waa to charge the defendant with murder,
try her on the charge of dealing on the
board and convict her of killing her hus
band. The only motive her attorneys say
that can figure out for the state's Intro
ducing evidence relating to her gambling
on the Board of Trade Is that there were
several religious Jurors on the panel who
were not only prejudioed against her, but
believed that any woman who would deal
In' options waa desperate enough to murder.
Ns.lsa.nce at the Stock Yards.
Secretary Towne of tho State Board of
Health filed with the governor today his
report upon the alleged maintenance of a
nuisance at the South Omaha stock yards,
In which objection has been made to the
methods employed In getting lid of the
sewage which flows from the hog pens.
Dr. Towne reported to the governor that
he considered the present state of affairs
a mene.ee to the health of residents in
the vicinity of the stream which drains
the stock yards and flows south toward
Ollmore. Samples of water taken from the
stream above and below .its confluence with
the stock yards sewer were collected by
Dr. Towne and submitted along with the
report. The first showed that the water
was fairly cletir, while the other sample
was black with filth. Dr. Towne recom
mended that the stock yards company be
required to remedy the evil by turning the
sewage Into a septic tank, by resorting to
sand Alteration or by diverting the flow
Into the main South Omaha aewer, although
If the latter Is resorted to the sewer would
have to be materially enlarged. Governor
Mickey has reserved his decision upon the
complaint until be can consult with the
State Board of Health. It Is surmised that
he will sound the stock yards company and
advise that the objectionable sewage be
disposed of voluntarily by the company,
without the necessity of state Interference.
Dr, Down en th Carpet.
- Dr. C. W. Downs ot 814 South Fifteenth
street, Omaha, baa collided with a provi
sion of the law which, according ' to his
statement, he did not know was on the
books. The doctor appeared today before
the secretaries of the Stat Board, of Health
In response to a summons to that effect,
la company with his attorney. . He found
lodged against him a complaint that he
had violated a statute enacted at the last
legislative session prohibiting the distribu
tion .of pamphlets or advertising matter
which Is detrimental. In the Judgment of
the State Board of Health, to public mor
als. The specific allegation Is made that
objeetlonal advertising matter of the kind
prohibited by the statute was circulated
In Lincoln on July 24, fourteen days after
the law went Into effect. Dr. Downs pleaded
that he was not Informed of the existence
of such a law. The secretaries took no
action, as a legal quorum was not present
and the case was allowed to go over until
the September meeting. If adjudged guilty
the State Board of Health Is empowered
by the statute to revoke Dr. Downs' license
to practicemedicine In the state.
