LINCOLN, Au. JO. (Speclal.)-The su
preme court la to hare a wrestle withthe
irritation case from Bcotta Bluft countr,
tha dlatrlct oourt having reversed the de
cision of tha State Board of Irrigation In
ona Instance and austainlnr It In another.
Tha eaco filed today Is entitled William
Frank, appellant, aralnst The Fsrmers"
Canal Company, Roberta. Walker and
Farmera' Irritation Dlatrlct of Scotta Bluff
County and Tha Farmers' Irrigation Dis
trict ot Bcotts Bluff County against The
Farmera' Canal Company, Roberts Walker
and William Frank.
Under tha law of 1887 tha Farmers' Canal
company waa granted the right to dig a
dltah elghty-ona miles long, claiming 1,141
cublo feet of water par second coverfng
about (0,000 aores of land. The company
built a headgate and twenty -one, miles of
tha ditch. Than It quit and sold out ti
Roberts Walker. In April, 1902. along
comes William Frank and-filed an appli
cation for water right along the same
ground given tha canal company. His con
tention before tha board and before the
oourt was that tha canal company had
abandoned Its works.
Tha Farmers' Irrigation district was
then organised and voted 1400,000 worth of
bonds to dig a ditch along the same r1rt
of way. This district elaimed Ilka Frank
that tha oanal oompany had abandoned Its
property. Tba company did no work,
however.
The case waa tried before the State
Board of Irrigation and Secretary Dobson
decided In favor of the Farmera' Canal
oompany, holding that the statutes did
not provide how long tha property could
remain Idle before It was declared aban
doned. The case waa then taken to the
district court of Bcotts Bluff county and
tha decision there waa to ahut out the
Irrigation district and grant the light to
William Frank to dig tha ditch except In
tba twenty-one mites covered by the Farm
era' Canal oompany.
Gas gapolaote Eleetrtelty.
"liet there be light, yea, gaa light," says
tha Lincoln Oaa and Electric Light com
pany. "Let It be as our worthy chieftain
says," spake- the counoll. And gas light It
will be. And this Is tha beginning of the
punishment to be Inflicted upon the dt'sena
of Lincoln for waging an unsuccessful
fight to throw oft tha yoke adjusted by the
Electrlo Light company. The mandate waa
Issued by tha otty council soma time ago
and workmen are busy now tearing across
lawns, putting up unsightly poles In these
beautiful streets and the men who pay the
bills are punctuating their remarks with
sulphuric expressions.
The council let tha contract for 'the gas
lights to the Cleveland Vapor Light com
pany, which company In turn made a con
tract with the Lincoln Oas and Electrlo
Light company to furnish the gas. Tha
lights are to be placed, at street Intersec
tions "along . the gas main" and they are
to bo paid for at the rate of $41 aaoh a
year. .Thera are to be 825 or more of thera
to run from dark until dawn. The electrlo
lights are to come down. The company
agrees to use tha poles of the city, or as
many, athe.c1ty has, and at the expiration
of ' the contract,' one year from now, to
ell to the blty the lamps at $10 eaoh.
Tha t total cost of tha gns lights will be
tU.CS'a year, and the electrlo lights have
Wan costing the city $18,260.40. Why tha
elty council . made the change apparently
no one knowa. The gas lights will cost
mora and It la generally believed that they
Will not give the satisfaction that tha elec
tric lights did. There will be more of them
than thera were of tha electrlo lights, and
that'a all.
Only ona good explanation has been
offered for tha change and that was by a
man who Is not a' member, of the city
oounoll. He said for some time the Lincoln
oompany had been trying to find some way
to get more money out of tha city for
electric lights, but became it had been
securing about $14,000 for so long It seemed
Impossible to raise tha amount. Therefore,
be concluded, this company got the Cleve
land oompany to make tha bid for gas
lights, the Lincoln company to furnish the
gaa. This was all done. On every hand
tha people are condemning tha action of tha
oouncil and expresa themselves as being
very wrathy.
'Linooln baa bad .a hard time wth Ita
lights and lighting corporations. On two
.occasions the town , has voted bonds to
erect a lighting plant, and In each In
stance tha ordinance under which tha
bonds were lasued waa declared void. The
last vote waa taken In tha aprlng and
verythlng possible was dona to prevent
a mistake being made. The vote waa over
whelmlngly In favor of the bond issue.
Bat when these were offered for aale the
flaw waa found and tha bonds were not
old.

, Woodmea Off to Log Rolllnc
Over 600 members of the Modern Wood
men lodge left this morning over the Bur
lington on a special train to attend the
southeast Nebraska log-rolling at Beatrice.
The train consisted of ten coaches, a bag
gage car and caboose. Beveral local drill
teams In uniform were among the excur
sionists, though a majority of the travelers
were women. Head Consul Talbot went
along to make a speech. A short time
after this train left a special from Seward
passed through, with a crowd almost as
numerous aboard.
According to local coal dealers the de
mand for Pennsylvania anthracite coal
this winter Is very limited, due to the
greed of the mine owners last winter In
demanding such exorbitant prices. These
high prices compelled the consumers to
experiment with other coals, which were
found to be almost as satisfactory as the
Pennsylvania coal.

HASTINGS, Neb., Aug. . (Spectat)-In
an Interview with The Bee correspondent
Postmaster Jacob Fisher gave the follow
ing concerning what Leopold Hahn la re
ported to have said In Lincoln Tuesday:
"I wish, to deny with all possible em
phasis the statements reported by the Jour
nal of Wednesday, as having been made In
a hotel lobby In Lincoln by Leopold Hahn
concerning my appointment aa postmaster
of this city.
"Mr. Hahn Is quoted as having said that
the recent federal grand Jury In Omaha
Investigated the appointment of Jacob
Fisher aa postmaster of Hastings, but
found that the 'charges were without
foundation, legally.' He said further, ao It
to' stated by the Journal, that I consulted
with him and told htm that a demand of
$2,600 bad been made upon me In return
for my appointment. Mr. Hahn la reported
further as having said that I objected
vigorously and made arrangements to seek
legal advice for some way In which to
make payment by paper that would not
be collectible.
"The whole story given by Mr. Hahn Is
false. Not a single statement made by Mr.
Hahn In regard to any Irregularity In my
appointment Is true. He has absolutely
nothing, either legal or otherwise, which
would give foundation for any charges In
regard to my appointment, and I desire
to correct auto the Impression given out
by him that I am or was dissatisfied with
the treatment I received from Mr. Diet
rich.
"It should be borne in mind that Mr.
Hahn is well known as a political enemy
of Mr. Dietrich. He was my predecessor
as postmaster and Is disappointed because
ha couldn't hold the place. It will be re
membered that Mr. Haha declined to re
linquish possession of the postoffioe when
I presented my credentials. Ha left tne
city and the Postofflce department sent an
Inspector here to turn over tha offloa to
me In hla absence.
Oaly Eiesie (or frtery
"Mr. Hahn, in making tha statement
credited to him, probably had In mind tha
purchase of the postofflce fixtures. A little
explanation of the transaction will show
clearly that the charges are absolutely
without foundation. Away back In the '80s,
when Q. J. Evans was appointed postmas
ter, he purchased, with his own funds, tha
fixtures which had been used by his prede
oossor, C. H. Paul. He paid Mr. Paul for
the fixtures about $2,000, and at the ex
plratton of his term he sold them to Mr.
J. B. Heartwell. who was appointed as his
successor under the Harrison administra
tion, receiving for them about $1,800. Mr.
Ralnard Wahlqulst. appointed by Cleve
land, succeeded Heartwall and bought tha
fixtures from him for upwards of $1,000.
When Wahlqulst finished his term as post
master ho sold the fixtures to the Grand
Army of the Republic, and that organise'
tlon ranted to the government while Hahn
was postmaster a room equipped with those
fixtures, and at a rata two or three tlmea
higher than had been paid before. It ll
customary for the postmasters In cities of
this slse to buy their own fixtures. Hahn
is the only man who didn't do it, but tha
Grand Army of the Republic bought them
Just before he assumed tha office and then
raised the rent. .
"After I waa appointed I began to look
for fixtures. I Anally bought those owned
by the Grand Army of the Republic and
paid $800 for them. Thla check waa drawn
on a local bank, and so far aa I know, no
effort was made to keep the transaction a
secret. The $600 was all paid to tha Grand
Army of the Republic"

Some of the most attractive Rummer resort's
in the country are along the shores of Lake Mich
igan. There is Frankfort, with its new and beau
tiful hotel; Oharlevoix, Tetoskey, Bay View, Har

climate is all that can be desired. At most of
them there are golf links, tennis courts, boating,
bathing and fishing. The ideal way to reach them
is by water from Chicago. Fast and spendidly
furnished steamers leave that city almost every
day in the week. The trip across Lake Michigan
is delightful.
