opinion to the county commissioner, hold
ing with Judge Cornish of Lancaster county
that the county Judge need not report fees
collected by him for-performing marriage
ceremonies. The opinion in effect' la that
these fees belong to the county Judge and

The opinion of the county attorney I

caae wherein the county commissioner
sought to collect marriage fee from
County Judge Water. Judge Cornish de
cided in favor of the count Judge. The
case was not carried to the supreme court.
County Attorney Blabaugh said as far a

the fees for performing marriage cere

Is In his favor, he declares he will not be
satisfied until a final opinion Is had from
the supreme court. The opinion of Judge
Cornish, as understood here, is to the effect
the county Judge ha no right to accept a
fee at all.
"I think It is only fair to the commission
ers, the taxpayers and the county Judge's
office that we have an adjudication of this
matter by the supreme court," said judge
Leslie yesterday afternoon. "As it Is now
I am uncertain as to how I should proceed.
If I accept a fee for marrying a couple
someone msy charge me with wrongfully
accepting money. If I do not I. may be held
responsible for the fee and be required to
pay It out of my own pocket. If the mat
ter js not settled now. after I go out of of.
flee omeone may bring It up against m.
i think I am entitled to a decision of
the supreme, court and If there Is no other
way I will start proceedings myself or have
them started to determine the matter."
"From what I know of the opinions of
the commissioners," ssld County Auditor
Robert Smith. "I do not think they will let
the matter drop, but will Insist on a de
cision from the supreme court., I do not
think tne matter will be settled thia side
of the supreme court."

Democrats Are loosing Hope.
ST. PETEKSBl'RG, May 21 Prof. Milu
koff, the spokesman of the constitutional
democrats, according to a thoughtful arti
cle pubiiaticl by him In the Keen today, is
rather despondent over; the prospect of
staying the tide or revolution In the coun
try. He bases his pessimism upon the con
viction that the government will not yield
a full constitutional regime, with which, he
says Is still possible, to- calm the passions
of the people. He 'regards iretntr . Oore
mykin and' his cabinet as -mere puppet,
doing the bidding "of the powerful Influ
ences at court., and believes that Emperor
Nicholas la destined to throw away the op
portunity a Louis XVI did of transferring
the country to a peaceful, parliamentary
regime. ' ,
This ths professor considers to be the
government' last chance and that a re
fusal to do so will cut- the. ground from
under the constitutional - democrats . and
strengthen the' kfv'ohittbnary elements
which Are preaching that Parliamentarism
Is an illusion, and ink anarchy and a
bloody .revolution i Inevitable. Nevertheless
the constitutional democrats will persevere
In their attempt to place the country on a
olid, constitutional basis, and If they fall
and disaster follows the responsibility will
not be upon their shoulders.
Laws to bo ' Proposed.
The central committee of the constitu
tional democrats has completed the draft
of the laws to be Introduced In Parliament,
Including universal suffrage, Irrespective of
sex and equal rights, for all cltlxena; law
guaranteeing immunity of the person , and
Inviolability of domicile without due process
of law, providing the guarantee of habeas
corpus and specifically excluding all excep
tions. While no party at court favors a com
plete surrender to the demands of the lower
House of Parliament, the Trepoff cabal,
which secretly favors a dissolution of Par
liament, Is not strong enough for Die mo
ment to seriously urge such a course. The
emperor continues well disposed and is sup
ported not only by many nobles at the
court, but by other. big landed proprietors
throughout the country who now seem fully
convinced that unless the peasants can be
meaaureably satisfied by a compromise on
the land question a revolt of the peasants
against the nobles will be aroused which
will ruin the latter, Ihe peasant will
forcibly seize their property to the accom
paniment of horror and excesses.
The provincial papers are filled with ad
vertisements of estates for sale Inserted by
property owners who. despairing of saving
their property, are "ready to accept what
they can get and flee from the country.

PEACE OH THE WESTERN TURF
Hblnock and Cella Get Taether
oa Plaa af Operating
Trnek.
CINCINNATI. O.. May SJ Peace has
been practically restored on the wetern
turf, according to a tory published here
today. Congressman Joseph L. Rhlnock,
representing the American Turf associa
tion, and Louis Cella, the main supporter
of the Western Jockey club, signed a
compact which ends the fight. With O.
A. Tilles, Harvey ' Myers and Judge Bond
of St. Louis as witnesses Rhinock and
Cella signed the peace compact last Sat
urday. It calls for no clash of interest
wherever thev' are concerned. Thia mean
that there will be no clash between Louis
ville and Douglas park and between City
park and the Crescent City Jockey club
In New Orleans next winter. The dstes
will be so arranged that both tracks will
rsce alternately. The Douglas park meet
ing will probably follow that at Latonla.
The outlaw is also wiped out and horse
men can race at either track. Latonla'
meeting will be run Independently of the
Amerlcap and Western Jockey clubs. No
one will be barred except those who have
been suspended or ruled off by either
organisation. It will not be long before
a new organisation will be formed to
control racing In the west.
The American Turf association came
Into existence through the refusal of the
Western Jockey club to grant City park
racing dates. Mr. Corrlffan and Con
gressman Rhlnock were behind City park
snd the American Turf association was
organ I led to fight the Western Jockey
club. If has been a long fight and In
consequence racing In Illinois and Mis
souri has been discontinued.

players who entered for the eighth
annual championship of the Metropolitan
Oolf association which began today on the

six holes, medal play. The first thirty-two
qualified with scores of 174 and under, to
continue at match play for the champion
ship title, and the others are divided Into
two divisions for minor prises.
The sensation of the day was the splendid
scores made by Jerome D. Travers of Mont
clalr, N. J. The amateur record for the
course of 6,814 yards waa seventy-three,
made by Archie Reld, a member of the
St. Andrews club. Young Travers mar's
the morning round in seventy-two and
duplicated this score In the afternoon. This
estnbllxhed a new amuteiir and alao a new
competitive score for the links.

O'NellT
Preister waa sent In to pitch after
Wicker had lost the game to New York.
Jack showed he ought to have been in
from the start.
One of two things seems certain In the
National and American leagues, either the
pitchers are poorer or the batters better
this year, (or It is s fact that some tall
slugging Is being generally done.
New York Americana Tuesday defeated
the Chicago White Box, I to I In New
York, while New York National defeated
Chicago Nationals, I to 2, In Chicago. Hut
It was high time the Giants were winning.
Boston Americans have won Just six
games out of thirty and Boston Nationala
nave won twice that number out of thirty
three. Collins' team is last and his neigh
bors next to last. St. Louis is getting half
a chance.
In Monday' gam Eton made three hit.
In Tuesday two more hits than some of
the team will make for weeks. If Schlpke

Th suspension by O'Nell of Doyle is a

looked like a gentleman beside the rest.
The crowd gathered around Keefe at
Vinton ball para after the game Tuesday
and It was thought some niight do him
bodily harm. They refrained, however,
from touching the poor weakling, while
the coward who caused the trouble was
surrounding hUnself by a dosen ball play
ers with Lsts for protection, besides three
police officers whom Chief Donuhue bad
sent over lest the (sir name of Omaha
should be smirched by having even such
a man as Cantlllon assaulted while visit
ing In the city.
It was somewhat pitiful to see Keefe,
the Incompetent, have to stand and take
the abuse he did at the hands of Cantlllon
ana the Des Molne hoodlums. All be
could do was to pull his watch and
tnreaten to call the game unless they went
to their places, knowing fu'l well he didn't
dare it. His acllun la somewhat explained
by his statement that he I acting under
positive orders not to tine playert. On a
close decision he would glance at the Ds
Moines bench, and thura his gsse would
mt Cantlllon, standing and waving his
arms like a madman. With bis face while
with rsge.
