4 LUMBER DEALERS GO FREE

SOME LOCAL VIOLATIONS OF LAW
M'. C. Ballard Company of MrC'oolt
and Harnett Company of Same
Place Gnlltf, Alio Dealers
In Other Counties.
(Prom a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April 12.-lSpeclal.)-In the
first round all of the defendants In the
ult brought against the Nebraska Lumber
Dealers' asnoclatlon have been founrl not
guilty, with the exception of the W. C.
Pullard Lumber company and the Barnett
Lumber company, doing business at Mc
Cook. Against these two defendants
Referee Post recommends that the eourt
render Judgment aa prayed for by the
mate, but regarding all the other defend
ants he recommend that the cases be
dismissed. Judge -Post recites also In his
findings that the evidence show comblna
tlons In York, Seward and Cass counties by
dealer unknown to the records. Attorney
Oeneral Thompson will flla exceptions to
the report of tha referee.
Injunction proceedings were brought by
tho then attorney general, Norrls Brown
a year ago, against the Nebraska Lumber
Dealer' association to prevent Its mem
bers from combining to control the lumber
trade of the elate. A demurrer to this pell
tlon was tiled and overruled and the su
preme court appointed Judge Tost of Co
lumbus to hear the testimony and pas
upon tha law in the cuae and report his
conclusion to the court. He reported this
afternoon. The referee gives the lumber
dealer a clean bill, though saying there
was evidence tending to show local combi
nation. A the state had made Us case
against the late association and that
association had clearly ehown It was not
guilty, the referee recommended the de
fendants, with the exception of the two
named, be dismissed.
Following are Judge Post' conclusions
of law:
( onrluftion of Law.
1. The purpose of the Ntbraska Lumber
Dealeta' association, as declared In Its
articles of association, are not unlawful.
2. The declared purpose of said associa
tion being consistent with the provision
of the autl-lrust laws of Nebraska and de
fendants are not, from the mere fact that
they are members of said association,
chargeable with acta violate of such laws,
done without their knowledge or consent
by fellow member thereof.
J. The facts as proved ami found do not,
except as herein otherwisw stated, show
any agreement, combination or conspiracy
In restraint of trade aa denned by statutes
of Nobraska.
i. The fact as proved and found do not.
xcept as herein otherwise stated, amount
to an unlawful trust as defined by statute
tif Nebraska.
5. The tacts as proved and found do not,
execpt herein otherwise stated, show any
agreement, combination or conspiracy to
monopolize any part of the trade and com
merce of the stiito of Nebraska.
B. Tha defendants, except aa herein other
wise slated, were not at the date of the
commencement of HiIb action, guilty of
monopolizing any part of the trade and
comment! of the Btate of Nebraska.
J'ho unlawful combination between the
defendants, the Harnett Lumber company
and tho V. C. Hullard Lumber company
mentioned In the accompanying findings of
fact Is presumed to have continued until
tho date of the commencement of this ac
tion, and the state Is entitled, as against
said defendant, to Judgment a pruyed in
Its petition.
s. fcixeepi as lo me neronnanta last noove
named ttie petition should be dismissed.
Nome Who Are Guilty.
The report of the referee stalls off by
repeating the articles of association ins far
as they relate to the case In question and
slates that although the articles were not
signed except as speolllcally set out, the
members paid their dues ana contormea

based on this date, and It Is expected to
surpass Its predecessors both In point of
numbers and elegance. .

HUNDRED THOUSAND LESS THAN FEVENUE
Andltor flares the Revenue at a Still

Desired to lie on Safe Side

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. April I2.-(Speclal.) The total
appropriations made by the Inst legislature
and approved by the governor. Including
the 1 ml!) levy for the State university
(estimated I amounts to. ll.Oot.TSO.E. In
cluding what the 1 mill levy for the uni

tho receipts for the blennlum to be 14,122,

of J11T.640. But besides this money the tax.
payers of the state will be assessed the
extra mill to pay on the state debt, though
they will be relieved one-half mill by reason
of the repeal of the bill providing a levy
for the schools. This, however, will be off.
set by the probable addition of one-half
mill against the general fund. Governor
Sheldon estimated the receipts of fee by
the various offices as follows:
Governor, f 170; auditor, I'Jlo.onO; secretary
of state, $iKniiO; land commissioner, $10.0O0;
banking department, W.OfO; food commis
sioner, $3,0"0; board of Irrigation. V00; oil
department, $19,000; national aid for the
soldiers' homes, 172,000; Interest on deposits,
llfl.700; convict labor, $W,0O0; back taxes,
$100,000; a total receipt. Including the gen
eral fund levy, of 13.476.370.
Deputy Auditor Cook estimated the re
ceipts for the general fund to be 13,700,000.
Governor Sheldon, however, based his es
timate on a total assessment this year
of 315.o.0oo and for 1008 an assessment
of fciZS.OiKl.ooO. Others estimate tha grand
assessment roll much larger than this, but
Governor Sheldon was anxious to be on
the safe side and for that reason urged
appropriations to be kept within the limit
of a conservative estimate of receipt.
Only One Office Move.
The oil office was the only office lo move
from the first floor today to the higher
regions, and the only reason Ed Church
wa In such a hurry was because he got
George Carter's pleasant rooms on the
second floor, while Carter had to go to
the dark hole In the wall on the next
floor. The State Board of Irrigation has
delayed moving to the third floor until
the plastering can be patched up and the
room made fit to live In. Tho labor bureau
has made no move toward getting start.id
for up higher, because this department
will have to cart up three flights of steps
about 2.000 volumes of books, and all be
cause the State Board of Agriculture
thought It wanted that room. Superln
tendent McBrlen thought there would be
blood shod over the removal order and
probably a fight over omo of the rooms
so when Mr. Church got the oil office out,
McBrlen had his trusty, Mr. Sparks, get
a chair and sit In the vacant oil offlee all
day long, on tho theory that possession Is
nine points of law. Sparks held the fort
like a soldier, and though the constant
gibes of passing people Irritated him al
most to the exploding point, he didn't go
off. A strategy board Is now at work try
ing to find out what McBrlen wants with
another room separated from' his already
commodious quarters. It may be the
board will rescind Its action on the labor
bureau and put the fair board In the oil
office.
State Fair Prospect Tlrlarht.
Trospects for a good state fair this year
are looking up and the Indications are the
exhibits of live stock and other features
which go to make a good fair will be far
In excess In number and quality of previous
years. Just at this time Secretary Mellor
hns been notified that space ha been
asked for K& pens of hogs when the ac
commodations will take care of only 442.
A feature which will be added this year
is the contest for a prize for the best
Shorthorn milker. The American Short
horn Breeders' association notified Score
tary Mellor It would donate $300 If the fair
board would give a like amount for the
best Shorthorn milker. The cow under the
rules laid down will be milked three
straight dnys In the presence of the Judges
and the milk weighed and tested. Cnder
the rules a cow under S years old which
has calved wllhlnthree months must giv
milk to the weight of fourteen pounds, and
if It has calved more thnn three month
from the fair, the milk must weight eleven
pounds. A cow over t years old having
calved within less than three months must
give twenty pounds of milk, and If It ha
calved more than three months before the
fair the milk must weigh fifteen pounds.
If this standard Is not reached the animal
will not be permitted to receive a prize.
One of the attraction of the fair this
year will be a flying machine, the same
man operating It that operated the one at
Omaha last year. This machine will make
its flight dally, weather permitting.

Attorney Ovneral Thompson today recom
mended to County Attorney Roach of
North Platte, Lincoln county, that he
begin prosecution of the Union Pacific
Railroad company for violation of thi
2-cent passenger fare law. County Attor

eral that the I'nlon Pacific continues to
charge at the rate of 3 cents per mile for
ticket between North Platte and Sidney,
notwithstanding both cities are In Ne
braska. The Union Pacific Justifies the
3-cent rate because a few miles of it line
cast of Sidney goes outside of thi state
Into Colorado, making the trafflo Interstate
and therefore beyond the control of state
laws. Tho suit may be made a test of the
legality of the new law.
