LINCOLN, Neb.. Oct. 19.-(Speclal Tele

tutional by the supreme court today.
Judge Barnes dissenting, and a writ of
- 1 . ...
irtinaaniui was issuea compelling; me
county clerks of Gage and Buffalo counties
to place the names of candidates for such
offices on the official ballot. The court on
the previous day had held the register of
deeds act unconstitutional in a case aris
ing In Gaga county and as a result regis
ters of deeds and county supervisors will
be elected this fall In accordance wltn the
provisions of the old law. No suit involv
ing the right to extend the term of county
assessors has been appealed to the supreme
court.
Inheritance Tax Valid.
The Inheritance tax law has been held
valid by the supreme court and County
Judge Vlnsonhaler of Douglas county has
been directed by the court to appoint ap
praisers to pass upon the estate of Frank
Murphy, deceased. Judge Vlnsonhaler re
fused to appoint appraisers to pass upon
, the estate, holding that the law was un
constitutional. County Attorney Blabaugh
filed a petition in the supreme court for a
mandamus to compel him to appoint. The
syllabus is as follows:
The tax provided for in the Inheritance
tax law, so-called, chapter 64, the laws of
as amended,- Cobb supra 1906, section
lO.TOd, Is not a property tax, but upon the
right of succession to property by in
heritance or will.
The enumeration of subjects of taxation
In section 1, article Ix, of the constitution
Is not exclusive. The legislature has power
to provide for taxation upon the Inher
itances. The act does not require the tax

the whole estate of the decadent, but upon
the share each heir or devisee takes there
in. Antl-Clgarette Law Valid.
That portion' of the anti-cigarette law
which makes it unlawful to give away
cigarettes and cigarette papers Is sustained
by the supreme court and the judgment of
the district court of Douglas county Is re-
versed, and John Alperson, who was ar
rested under that clause and who sought
to secure his liberty by writ of habeas
corpus, is remanded to the utstody of the
officer. Alperson contended that tho pnrt
of the act which made giving aay of
clgnrettes and cigarette papers was uncon
stitutional because It was a subject not
sufficiently expressed In the title of the act.
The title prohibits the manufacture and
sale of cigarettes and cigarette papers. The
court says:
If the barter and gifts of clgnrettes and
cigarette papers Is not prohibited by the
court It Is manifest that the nurpnse and
Intent of the legislature Is thwarted, and
we think that purpose and Intent Is plainly
to be derived from the title ut the act it
self. The court holds that the In'.ent of the act
Is sufficiently expressed In the tltlo and
says: ,
The legislature undoubtedly supposed that
the use of cigarettes was injurious to the
public In general through Its effect upon
the health and morals of the people. The
Intention was to remove these articles from
the avenues of commerce, to banish them
from the state as guilty and lllevltinHte
things that ought not to be offered or
easv of access by vicious or thoughtless
people who are or may be Injured thereby.
Crltes Not In Contempt.
Albert W. Crltes. an attorney of Chndrcn,
who was adjudged In contempt o. court by
the judge of the district court an4 fined 110.
has secured a reversal if he Judgment.
The supreme court holds that the record in
this case Is defective and does lot susta'.n
the Judgment complained of. Presumptions
and Intendments will not bo inlilged In
the-court holds, in order to susMIn convic
tions for contempt of court
Bars Flan- on Advertising;.
Brewing companies and other manufaC'
torles cannot use the national flag as I
trade-mark. This the supreme court decided
In upholding the McClay law to prevent
the desecration of the flag of the United
States. Halter & Hayward, saloonkeepers
of Omaha, representing the Willow Springs
brewery, were arraigned for using the flag
as a trade-mark on bottled beer manufac
tured by this concern. They were fined in
the lower court of Douglas county and ap
pealed on the ground that the law was
unconstitutional. The court holds that the
power to prohibit the use of the national
flag does not belong exclusively to the na
tional congress, but may be exercised by
the several states; that the act of 1903 Is
not obnoxious to the fourteenth amend
ment to the constitution of the United
States, nor to the provisions of the state
constltulon against depriving any person of
his property without due process of law
and against special or class legislation.
Ruling on Miles Will Case.
In the Miles will case, from .Richardson
oounty, the court has overruled a motion
for a rehearing. Upon re-examlnation of
the case the court is satisfied that the ad
dltlonal evidence offered In the district
court upon this application for a new trial
Is of such a character that the Intentions
of Justice demand that the whole evidence
together be submitted for a determination
of the issues presented. Upon the evidence
as it now is it would be the duty of the
district court to set aside its former Judg
ment upon the probate of the will and the
orders of the county court in that regard
and re-try the whole case presented by the
proponents and contestants of both of the
alleged wills respectively.
In the case of William H. Miles of Pron
I tier county, Judged In contempt of court
for trespass, the Judgment of the district
court is affirmed.
Albert Blackner, convicted in Keya Paha
county of forging- warranty deed, has
i secured a reversal and his case is re
manded ror a new trial, . notwithstanding
the verdict of guilty rests almost entirely
on his own alleged confession made whil
under arrest awaiting trial. The court
holds that one cannot be convicted of a
felony upon his own unsupported extra
Judicial confession that a crime has been
committed.
Stock Shipper Loses Ont.
While holding that a railroad company
negligently refusing to receive live stock
for immediate sale upon the market Is
liable for the expense of keeping the
stock caused by such delay and for the dif
ference between the price of the stock
when it should have arrived at the market
and the price when it did actually arrive,
the court holds in a suit Instituted by
Alva Todd-of Farnam that damages cannot
be awarded from a claimed decline in the
market price of stock of the general de
scription of that which the railroad negli
gently refused to accept. Todd received a
verdict in the lower court for $140 damages
on account of the neglect of the railroad
company to ship sheep to South Omaha.
The supreme court reversed the lower
court.

of beer, without any marked improvement
"Friends had often advised me lo try a
well known proprietary medicine, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and I had often pe
rused the newspaper advertisements of the
remedy, but never took any stock In ad
vertised medicines nor could believe a
fifty-cent patent medicine would touch my
case.
"To make a long story shore, I finally
bought a couple of packages at the nearest
drug store and took two or three tablets
after each meal and occasionally a tablet
between meals, when I felt any feeling of
nausea or discomfort.
"I was surprised at the end of the first
week to note a marked Improvement in my
appetite and general health, and before the
two packages were gone I was certain that
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets was going to
cure completely, and they did not disap
point me. I can eat and sleep and enjoy
my coffee and cigar, and no one would
suppose I had ever known the horrors of
dyspepsia.
"Out of friendly curiosity I wrote to the
proprietors of the remedy asking for in
formation as to what the tablets contained,
and they replied that the principal In
gredients were asepUo pepsin (government
test), malt diastase and other natural di
gestives, which digest food regardless of the
condition of the stomach."
The root of the matter Is this, the diges
tive elements contained In Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets will digest the food, give
the overworked stomach a chance to re
cuperate and the nerves and whole sys
tem to receive the nourishment which can
only come from food. Stimulant and nerve
tonics never give real strength; they give
fictitious strength, Invariably followed by
reaction. Kvery arop or Diood. every
nerve and tissue is manufactured from our
dally food, and If you can insure its prompt
action and complete digestion by the reg
ular use of so good and wholesome a rem
edy as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, you will
have no need for nerve tonics and sanitariums.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
been In the market only a few years, prob
ably every druggist in the United States,
Canada and Great Britain now sells them
and considers them the most popular and
