THE WOMAN who values the fresh

close rooms, rich diet or late hours, are
her most powerful enemies, and that a
slight aperient, such as a small wineglass

morning before breakfast, is one of the
greatest aids to HEALTH and therefore
BEAUTY.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 8. (Special to The
Bee.) Returns of the election held yes
terday are coming into the state head
quarters slowly, and late this evening only
nine counties had made complete returns
on the state ticket. In nearly every In
stance only the majority vote was sent In,
so the chairman Is unable yet to figure on
the total vote cast. So far as heard from,
Judge Hastings carried only one county,
Folk, which gave him sixteen plurality,
though the republicans secured a number
of the county officers. Sullivan carried
Polk county by S42. Reports from Fill
more, Pawnee and other counties show
the democrats made some gains In electing
county officers, which tends to bear out
the statements made before the election
that the democratic state committee was
paying no attention to the head of the
ticket but was working In the interest of
county candidates.
Chairman Warner has Issued a call for
a meeting of the executive committee of
the state committee at the headquarters
Thursday night, at which time he will
make his report of the conduct of the
campaign.
From every standpoint the campaign has
been a most successful one. The commit'
tee will pay oft the debt left by the Bur
seas administration, amounting to some
12,000, payall the expenses of this cam
paign and still have some money In the
bank for a rainy day.
The county committee has quit getting
returns and will wait for the official re
turns before making any further tabula
tlons. The head of the ticket carried the
county by about 1,900 plurality and all the
county candidates have been elected,
though Judge Waters and Coroner Gra
ham, who were running for fourth terms,
were scratched.
Assistant City Attorney Herdman of
Omaha was attending supreme court today
and took occasion to say a word for the
voting machines.
"Douglas county will never go back to
the old way of voting." he said. "The
machines proved to be all right. They are
easy to understand and a great time
saver. By their use all contests will be
stopped, unless positive fraud Is discov
ered. And then by 9 o'clock we know the
vote, while earlier than that we knew who
had been elected."
Speaking of republican success In Doug
las county, Mr. Herdman said:
"Everybody Is prosperous In Omaha
and satisfied, and It was not possible to
get out the vote. At least 2.000 people who
registered failed to vote. We lost lots of
socialist votes, too. These are the main
reasons for republican success."
Brief In Woodmen Case.
In the supreme court this afternoon was
argued the case of the state against John
Drexel. county clerk of Douglas county.
In which Governor Mickey, as chairman
of the State Board of Equalization, seeks
to secure a mandamus to compel the clerk
to Insert in and enter upon the tax rolls
of Douglas county for taxation purposes
the assessed value of the reserve fund of
the order, amounting to $2,036,651, of which
the assessed value would be $407,330, and
the assessed value of the reserve fund of
the Woodmen circle, amounting" to $40,177.
In his argument the attorney general set
out the following points, upon which he
made his arguments:
Fraternal beneficiary associations are in
surance companies, and under the constltu
tion and laws of Nebraska neither the
legislature nor any taxing officer has power
to exempt their property from taxation.
The reserve funds of fraternal beneficiary
KAUS
leS'
taxation.
In their reply the attorneys for the order
raised these points against the granting
of the mandamus:
1. Because upon the face of the alterna
tive writ Itself It does not appear that
relator has any Interest in the subject
matter of the action.
2. Relator Is .not entitled to the writ, no
demand having been made upon the re
spondent prior to the Institution of this
action.
3. The State Board of Equalization has
no power to order or require the county
assessor of Douglas county to add to or
increase the valuation of property returned
by an Individual taxpayer for the purpose
of assessment and taxation.
4. The county assessor having wrongfully
Increased the assessed valuation of the
property of these corporations by direction
of the state board, it was the right of the
corporations wnnse rignts were thus af
fected to complain to the County Board of
Equalization then in session, and that
tribunal had Jurisdiction of the matter and
authority to act In the premises, and Its
action In that behalf Is conclusive unless
appealed from or reviewed in some manner
provided by law.
6. I'nder the constitution and laws of Ne
braska, fraternal beneficiary associations
are either charitable organizations whose
property is exempt from taxation, or they
are domestic life Insurance companies, In
which event the assessment made by the
county assessor in the first Instance was
and Is the only proper valuation and assess
ment that could be made of their fund for
the purpose of taxation.
Replying to this the attorney general
aid:
Question Validity of Lobby Contract.
It is up to the supreme court to decide
whether a contract made with a lobbyist
to secure the passage of certain legisla
tion is a legal contract, or whether It la
Illegal and against the public morals. The
supreme court some years ago decided that
such a contract was against public morals
and that it was Illegal, but recently a de
cision was handed down which overruled
this, and also the opinion of the United
States supreme court and of many other
states.
The question waa raised by Senator Pern
berton of Gage county, who is unking for a
rehearing In the case of Stoemer against
Van Arsdel. The lust named claimed that
he had represented Stoemer and others In
Washington and had secured the passage
through congress of an act which entitled
thcra to receive from the government a re
tate on Indian lands which they had
bought, amounting in all to some $300,000.
The land was appraised and then auctioned
at public sale. The price was boosted at
the sale and the settlers were compelled to
pay much more than the appraised value
of the land. Van Arsdel then went to
Washington at the instance of the settlers,
ne claimed, In order to get a reduction In
the price of the land. Stoemer and those
parties represented by Senator Pemberton
claimed that they had no contract with
Van Arsdel. Pemberton In his argument
cited the cue of Richardson against Scotts
Bluff county. In which the court had held
that It was against public policy to make
a contract with a lobbyist to secure legis
lation.
Photograph of Roberts Secured.
A photograph of George H. Roberts, at
one time attorney general of Nebraska, has,
after much trouble on the part of many .at
torney generals, been secured and will
shortly adorn the walls of the room occu
pied by the legal department. General Rob
erta Is now located In Boise, Idaho, and
his picture shows him as a colonel on the
staff of the governor. It was secured by
Hiland Wheeler, one of his old-time friends
and admirers. Roberts was three times
attorney general of Nebraska. Having been
elected ' twloe he gave way to Joseph R.
Webster. After Webster had served one
term Roberta attended a state convention
and made a speech on the. "Evils of the
Grasshopper," which carried away the con
vention and secured for him a third nom
ination and election.
Redlstrlctlns the Bankers.
President Trennery of the State Bank
era' association was In Lincoln today on
business connected with his office, and left
this afternoon for Omaha to attend to busi
ness there. The officials are now busy
working on a revision of the groups, as
one or two of them are entirely too large
Mr. Trennery expressed himself as being
well pleased with the last meeting of the
bankers and hardly looks for such another
one in the near future.
Grata Case Postponed.
Attorney General Norrls Brown secured
from the supreme court this morning per
mission to take two weeks In which to pro.
pare and file his brief In reply to the briefs
of the attorneys for the Grain Dealers' as
sociation of Nebraska, against which he hna
brought Injunction proceedings. The argu
ments will be presented to the court at the
next sitting.
Court to Pass on Jury Pnssle.
The supreme court Is to solve the Tucker
Jury law puzzle. Attorney General Norrls
Brown late this evening filed a petition on
oenair of Governor Mickey, requesting a
writ of mandamus to compel L. C. Reneau,
county clerk of Mcpherson county, and
the other members of the canvassing board
to draw a Jury panel In accordance with
the Tucker law. The board refused the
demand of County Attorney Wesley Wilcox
to select the panel and thus the matter
gets Into the court. It will be heard prob
ably at the next sitting.
After Babcock'a Shoes.
A delegation of Beatrice citizens today
called upon Governor Mickey to induce
him to appoint a Beatrice lawyer to take
the place on the district beach made va
cant by the death of Judge Babcock.
Among those In the delegation who are
candidates for the place were Senator
Pemberton. Attorneys Cobby, Sabln and
Riniker. Judge Chapman of Tecumseh
