department believes K baa sufficient evi
dence to begin a ault it will be Instituted.
Tha legal department is particularly
pleased with tha decision in the grain case,
not only because the suit was won. but
because the court established the validity
of tha several anti-trust laws which for
ao many years have been looked upon as
being- possibly faulty.
While the ault against tha grain men was
purely a civil actien. tha court by upholding-
tha several anti-trust laws has also
upheld tha penalty sections, thus making
it possible for the attorney general to be
gin criminal prosecutions for violations
whenever be sees fit to act. At thie time
Attorney General Brown la not ready to
express himself whether be will institute
criminal action against the grain men who
lost in tha civil suit. No word has reached
LJncoln regarding- the action tha grain men
will take in tha case.
Sa Ofllrimla for Tmitiom.
The courts will be called upon to decide
whether the state officers who maintain
legal residences elsewhere and who send
their children to school in Lincoln have
to pay tuition. Some time apo the School
board sent notices to the officers of tha
amount of tuition due and the officers re
fused to pay. The board then agreed with
the officers to settle the matter by a
friendly suit, and Charles Allen of Clark
ft Allen has been retained by the board to
bring the suit. Two questions are to be
decided; first, whether the city of Lincoln
can enumerate the school children here
whose parents maintain legal residences

state officers shall pay tha tuition fee
charged to non-residents.
Last fall the board made Its first demand
for tuition and an opinion was aecured from
the legal department to tha effect that
the school board had no right to collect
the money, as aom of tha officers were
compelled to reside in Lincoln by the pro
visions of the constitution, and at tha same
time the state superintendent held tha
school authorities of Lincoln school dis
trict could not enumerate school children
whose parents had legal residences at
places other than Lincoln.
Just what the nature of tha ault is to be
haa not been determined, but it is under
stood the school authorities will refuse to
allow a child of a state officer to enter
school, and then a restraining order will
be asked for to prevent tha school authori
ties from interfering with the child.

Land Commissioner Eaton and Secretary" of

dorsed it. Governor Mickey said:
"I think the bill should become a law and
I gladly signed the petition asking the con
gressmen to support it. Should It become a
law the rights of settlers would cot be In
terfered with and the cattlemen would be
protected in their rights. It would stop any
illegal use of the land and the government
would derive some revenue from it."
Ready ta Reeelve Tax.
The insurance department is getting ready
to accept the 137.000 due by reason of the re
ciprocal tax and which the state has not
collected during the last three years because
the case has been in courts. Just what the
attorneys for the Insurance companies will
do now, of course is not known here, but as
the case has been heard by the supreme court
on five different occasions, the department
has hopes further litigation will not be
started. Three or four companies during
the last two weeks have paid their taxes
levied under this law, and it Is thoust in
view of the court's decision others will fol
low suit.
Unofficial Information reached Lincoln
today that G. W. Jackson, postmaster at
Fairmont, Fillmore county, had Sfnt Lis
resignation to Washington. This action has
been predicted by several Fillmore county
politicians who are well Informed as to con
ditions existing there. Jackson was a can
didate for reappointment, thouph he had
served more than eight years, over ths pro
tests of many of the local .politicians. When
it becHme generally known that he sought a
reappointment a number of protests were
filed with Congressman Ilinshaw and it is
supposed the resignation is the result.
At this time there are two candidates for
the place, George Porter of Madison town
ship, a young farmer, and Clark Robinson,
a pioneer resident of the town.
