Considerable can be saved the traveler, the commission has pointed out. If he will buy his ticket to tho state line and then buy a ticket to his desti nation, thus getting the benefit of the l cent rate ln tills state. The railroads, how ever, are making this rather Inconvenient by compelling the traveler to purchase the separate tickets at the state line and also by re-checklng his baggage, which will mean ln many cases that he will miss his train. It may be that the commission will take the matter before the Interstate Com merce commission to compel the railroads to sell a through ticket, nt least, not In ex cess of the total of the local rates. A mem ber of the commission has made numerous calculations on the total of the local rates and tho through rates and In every In stance the through rate Is the higher. For Instance, the distance from Omaha to Den ver Is 6.18 miles and the advertised rate Is 11(5.15. The distance from Omaha to Halg ler. this state, Is 366 miles. At 1 cents a mile this rate would be $7.11 From Halg ler to Denver Is 182 miles. At S cents a mile (Interstate business) the rate would be 15.40 or a total rate, should the traveler buy his ticket to the state line of $12.58, In stead of the $18.15 through rate. The total of the local rates from Omaha to Dead wood is $13.91, while the through rate Is $17.06. Test of Two Cent Law. Incidentally Information has Just come to the commission that the Burlington rail road has requested the other roads ln Ne braska to Join with it In a suit to test the validity of the 2-cent rate law enacted by the recent legislature, but none of I the other roads would consent to the plan. The Missouri Faciflc. so it has been re ported to the commission, was not only anxious to have the 2-cent rate apply to Its Nebraska line, but to Its Interstate business as well, and Its officials received a severe calling down at the hands of the Burlington high lords. The Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis Omaha Is the first road to file with the commission a copy of Its notice posted at the Instance of the commission notifying the traveling public of the 2-cent rnte In Nebraska and suggesting that tickets be bought to the state line when traveling out of the state, ln order to get the benefit of the low rate ln Nebraska. The notice contains everything except the Illustration given by the commission. An order has been Issued by the .commission providing that the 2-cent rate applies only to Inter state business and that all through rates are In effect as provided for In the schedules. Kearney Files Salt. The mandamus suit to compel Secretary Lof State Junkln to certify that the bill carrying the $S5.000 appropriation for the Normal school at Kearney, became a law by reason of the failure of the governor to take action within five days from the date he received the bill, waa filed in the mipreme court this morning by Oldham, Sinclair and T. F. Ifamer. The decision In the case will determine whether the chief executive haa five days after the legislature actually adjourns, in which to act upon bills, or whether he must act within five days of the record adjournment of the legislature. The bill actually reached the governor April 4 at 11:46 o'clock and the records show It reached the office of the secretary of state April 10, but aa a matter of fact ft was not actually filed ln the office until April 11 at 2 o'clock. These bringing the suit will contend that the record made by the secretary of state Is wrong and will endeavor to prove the same. This will bring directly before the court the question whether a person can go behind the records on these matters. After Insurance Schemes.

If they work Insurance with the sale of stock, Mr. Pierce holds, the sale of stock Js In the nature if an Inducement to take out tha Insurance. Another matter called to the attention ot the department la the action of the Head Schurch company of Minneapolis in writ ing to thresher Insurance companies in Ne braska requesting their agents to work for this company. Mr. Pierce said the Min neapolis company has no right to do busi ness In Nebraska and an agent acting for it Is liable to arrest and Imprisonment. Principals of Jnnlor Normals.

Thla the board decided laat night and Tre'r Pr1n W today for Idaho to purchase Idaho state bond, which the board has heretofore bought from brokers, who received a fat fee for making the deal, uaually rutting from both ends. Should Mr. Brian succeed In pulling off the Idaho deal It will mean a saving to the state of about $:.6TO, which otherwise would have gone to the bond broker. It Id the Intention of the board to notify all the states that Nebraska Is credit state and has money to loan from an agent or midVlleman and allow htm to take a gTeat share of the Interest for commission, when the deals could be made directly with the state making the issue. However, the matter never came to a head until today Nebraska haa always paid the middleman. The board Is of the opinion thousands of dollars will be saved ' annually to the state by this new deal. Yonaa (irerk Wants Pardon. Friends of Jsmes Tourls, a Greek serving a one-year term In the penitentiary for manslaughter, are trying to get Governor Sheldon to pardon him before the sentence expiree ln order to prevent him from be ing sentenced to prison ln Greece upon his return to that country. Friends of the convict filed a petition with the governor In which It was set out that the lawa cf Greece provide that when one of Its cltl sens Is convicted of crime ln any other country, upon his" return to his native land he may again be tried on the same charge and have to serve again the same term ln prison as he served ln the foreign coun try. Tourls wants to go back h.tne when he Is released and he says If he takes a pardon along he will not be apprehended there. A. E. Sheldon of the State Historical society has been looking up the matter and he has found publications which lead him to the belief that such a law, a relic of the old Roman law, still exlsta In scuthem Europe nnd the youmr Greek will be sub ject to punishment when he returns home, providing he has no pardon. Should evl denre be shown the governor that such Is the ease he will pardon the young man before his time expires, which It does May 10.
