"public clamor and newspaper clamor," In
"unjustly and fraudulently increasing the
railroad assessments for taxation pur
poses," and through which original bill of

Opposing; Counsel In Case .
Attorney John N. Baldwin of the Union

the railroads, assisted by Bob Clancy, while
Attorney Oeneral Norrls Brown I looking
after the interests of the State Board of
J'.quallzallon, assisted by County Attorney
Altnknu.k Tl .(.. .......... X" .. I . ....
All of the witnesses named were present
with flies of their various Journals which
are wanted by Mr. Baldwin "to show how
the newspaper Influenced the State Board
of Equalisation In making the alleged un
just, fraudulent, arbitrary and otherwise
Injurious assessment against the railroad
pro-pet ty."
Edward Rose water was the first witness
examined. At the put set, Attorney General
Brown objected to the presentation of the
testimony of newspapers as Incompetent,
Irrelevant and Immaterial, and that the
bill of particular failed to state facts. A
note was made of the objection.
illr. Koaowator'a .evidanoe bore' particu
larly upon editorial and other matter ap
pearing In specific Issue of The Bee re
lating to the question of railway taxation
and assessments. The file of The Beo
for the year 1!X3 and. 1904 were Introduced
In evidence, and a the specific articles
were pointed out to Mr. Rosewater he ac
knowledged the authorship of all that he
had written and assumed a responsibility
for such articles a emanated from the cor
respondent of The Bee, and stated that
such editorial extract as appeared In The
Bee from other paper were correct repro
duction. Confidence In Information,
. Asked by Mr. Baldwin If he believed the
articles In - The Bee on these several sub
ject were a statement of fact, Mr. Rose
water replied:
"I believe the Information I have ob
tained on these matter I correct. I have
mad a special study of railroad statistic
and have always used care In the prepara-
on of editorial on railway subjects. Thla
nformatlon I have been gathering for
yeann."
Mr. Baldwin asked for the sources of Mr.
Rosewater' Information relative to special
favor being enjoyed by the railroad lu
the matter of taxation. Mr. Roaewater re
plied: "The special favor are shown by the
action of the different boards of assess
ment, i ne rauroaa valuation is about nun.
nfth of all the orooertv of the state. T nh.
alned It also from the report of the rail
made to the state board, computed upon
their capitalisation and earnings.
W. O. Jone. editor of the Lincoln Jour
nal, was the first witness examined In the
afternoon. His evidence was similar In all
' Do you remember the little thing that
rave as so much pleasure when we were
young? With what sest did we sit down to
the table after our plsy was over and eat the
mush and milk our mother pat before us.
But as w get older it take more to give
us pleasure. Mush and milk no longer
tastes food to us, and our digestion maybe

druggists in ever increasing quantities.

respects to the testimony given by Mr.
Rosewater during the forenoon, bearing
particularly upon the sources of Informa
tion for news relative to the discussion of
the railway tax question. Its reliability and
the consequent editorial comment upon the
matter. He admitted a responsibility for
the articles appearing both In the news find
editorial columns of the Journal.
Harry J. Dobbins, managing editor of
the Lincoln Kvenlng News, testified along
similar lines to those of Mr. Jonys. Mr.
Baldwin was manifestly elated when Mr.
Dobbins stated that certain editorials were
stimulated by a tremendous pressure of
public sentiment. The words "tremendous
pressure" sei-med especially good to Mr.
Baldwin, and he sought to ascertain Just
what that "tremendous pressure" was. Mr.
Dobbins, In telling of the Inspiration of an
other editorial, stated that It was suggested
by the active Interest that railroad lobby
ists had In the passage of the revenue law.
Mr. Baldwin asked Mr. Dobbins to state
who those railroad lobbyists were.
"Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Ager were two
of them," quietly responded Mr. Dobbins.
Mr. Baldwin flushed up In a moment and
Indignantly denied that he was Interested
In the passage of the revenue law. He
stated that there was but one section In
the law that he was at all Interested In,
Hnd that was that the railroads should bo
treated fairly. In the main he declared
that he was opposed to the law.
"It appears that much of this editorial
expression of public opinion Is based upon
hotel gossip," and Mr. Baldwin continued
In referring to the criticisms upon himself,
"that they are derived from the statements
of despicable wretches."
G?orge Kline, Lincoln correspondent of
the World-Herald, was questioned us to the
authorship of certain news paragntpha ap
pearing In that paper on the general ques
tion and admitted that they were written
by him.
No further oral testimony was taken dur
ing the afternoon, the remainder of the
day being put (n going over the files of the
various papers for the Identification of cer
tain articles, both af an edltoriul and news
character.

AK-SAR-BEN READY FOR WORK
Initiatory Work Tried on a Few and
Pronounced Good by tho
Governors.
The gates of the court of King Ak-8ar-Ben
XI were opened wide last evening,
those attending the levee and initiation
being the present and past members of the
board of governors and members of the
press. The togas of those In command
sat lightly on their shoulders, considering
that last evening was the first Initiation
night of the eleventh year of the reign
of the famous monarch of the kingdom of
Quivera. In keeping with everything that
bears the trade mark of Ak-Sar-Ben last
evening's Initiation and reception had that
up-to-date atmosphere which has marked
these occasions from year to year. And
yet the court officials say they are not up
In their respective parts to the degree of
perfection that will be shown In a week
or so. They will rehearse on Thursday
evening and on next Monday evening will
be ready for the real business In hand, that
of testing the metal of these who would
claim allegiance to the throne.
An advance guard of about fifty valiant
vassals was taken across the Alps, through
the famous Slmplon tunnel, over thorny
paths and beside yawning chasms, and
finally out Into the sunlight, footsore and
famished. Then the poor pedestrians were
given nourishment and finally resusci
tated.
The Interior of the den has been entirely

at present Is suggestive of a glimpse Into

accentuating Itself to the benighted pil

oven after having his toe nails removed.
Judging by the pessimistic expressions at
the den last evening another successful
season has been started for Ak-Sar-Ben.

Home Industry Campaign.
SENTIMENT FAVORS EDUCATIONAL EFFORT
Meeting; at Commercial Club Hears
the Gospel from Many Speakers
and Names Committee to
Form Club.
About thirty-five of the manufacturers
of Omaha met Monday night at the Com
mercial club to talk over the proposition
of the organization of a manufacturers
association for the general purpose of
stimulating the home patronage of home
industries.
F. E. Sanborn called the meeting to order
and outlined its purpose In an Interesting
address, and suggested that J. J. Gibson
be made chairman of the evening. Mr,
Olbson was unanimously elected. Mr.
Olbson, on taking the chair, gave an In
teresting account of his early experience
aa a manufacturer, his early failures and
hla ultimate success, because he had at
Inst produced an article of general use,
manufactured exclusively in Omaha, and
which was being sold In nearly every city
of the United States, and many of the
leading cities of Europe. He attributed his
success to Judicious advertising. He sug-
I gested that an exhibit of Nebraska mado
products be made In Omaha In the near
future.
Fred Krug was of the opinion, briefly ex
pressed, that the business men of Omaha
should get together for business and get
ready to do business.
E. J. Chissell favored the Immediate or
ganization of a home patronage bureau.
He said the newspapers arc always with
the business men of Omaha and Nebraska,
and he believed In home dollars going over
home counters.
F. W. Judson, chairman of the executive
committee of hte Commercial club, favored
the organization of a home-product ex-
. hlbltlon during the Ak-Sar-Ben carnival
week, and that the proposed association
should work with that body.
A. J. Vlerllng talked of the old Nebraska
Manufacturers and Consumers association
and thought that the new organization
should be along that line.
D. J. O'Brien thought that the chief end
of the new organization should be to get
at the man who buys and uses the stuff,
and to Interest the small dealers to handle
home products.
All Manufacturers Should Jol.
Manager Newton of the Newton Soap
company was of the opinion that all state
manufacturers should be asked to Join In
the association.
F. S. Knapp of the Omaha Box company
favored the local organization of manu
facturers and gave out the Information
that boxes could be sold cheaper here In
Omaha than In Chicago.
Charles Harding of the Harding Cream
ery company was decidedly In favor of the
proposed organization and stated as an In
dication of the growth of the ceamery in
dustry In Omaha, which was relatively a
young enterprise, that during the month
of June the Omaha creameries would pro
duce 350.000 pounds of butter, most of which
will go to eastern markets. As a citizen of
Omuha, he would do his share toward
stimulating the proposed organization and
help It along all he could.
A. P. Karbach, carriage manufacturer,
spoke of tho loyalty of the brewer of
Omaha to home manufacturers and said
that without exception they all hud their
vehicles made In Omaha.
M. D. Welsh, barrel manufacturer of
South Omaha, thought that the coopers of
Omaha should receive some patronage from
the Standard Oil company, but he was in
formed that the Standard Oil company did
not patronize a single Omaha Industry In
any manner. Ho cited as the loyalty of
an Independent oil company to Omaha that
he had recently closed a contract with the
Independent company for 6,000 barrels.
Part of the Newspapers.
Manager McCune of the Dully News and
O. M. Hitchcock of the World-Herald
stated that the newspapers are ready to do
their share, but Mr. Hitchcock was of the
opinion that the newspapers should not be
expected to carry the whole burden alone.
The Omaha manufacturers should not
clamor for home patronage alone, but with
the growing opportunities they should
reach out for the Immense trade tributary
to Omuha In the west.
Charles C. Rosewater of The Beo said the
newspapers had started many kitchen fires
In Omaha. lie thought the consumer
should not be considered lightly. This or
ganization will be the means of Instruct
ing the consumer In the necessity of home
patronage. With the exception of the
brewers, no one class appears to appre
ciate the neceBsllty of catering Intelli
gently to the homo market. The brewers
have asked the people's patronage intelli
gently and as a result the bottled beer
trade has Increased In Omaha within a few
years from 100 to 1,000 per cent. Home
patronage cannot be obtained alone by
arouuing sentiment, but by taking advan
tage of sentiment. He thought that the
producer must furnish as good goods as
his outside competitor, and this must be
largely done by the aid of Individual ef
fort. Teach the people that, other things
being equal, It will lie profitable for Omaha
consumers to buy Omaha made goods.
This movement will be a failure unless
a systematic effort Is mado to secure tho
aid of the consumer.
Committee to Organise.
One or two short talks were made by
other hpcukers along these same lines and
the following committee was appointed to
take charge of the matter of organization
and to arrange for another meeting, the
associtlon to become an adjunct of the
Commercial club: J. Gibson, N. D. Welsh,
A. P. Karbach, Henry Hobblns and F. 8.
Knapp.
The new association will be known as the
Omaha Manufacturers' association. The
committee Is also authorized to prepare a
plan for a . constitution and to present
such other suggestions as may be of in
terest In the movement. The date of the
next meeting will be announced by this
committee, and may probably be next Tues
day evening, June 13.
