BOARD NOT DEFYING THE COURT
Attorney General Denlee Story That
Injanrtlon In PiifrfH Case, if
Isaned hy Federal Court,
Weald Be Ignored.
(From a Btaff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. April 18. (Special.) The state
bureau of statistics has just finished a
compilation of mortgage statistics fur the
years 1906-7. Farm mortgages filed during
190 numbered 17,461, but during 1907 the
number fell to 16,131. The total amount rep
resented by the farm mortgages filed 'in
1906 was $44,003,848.79. while for 1907 the
amount totals 135,322,577.99. In both years
the number released exceeded Ihe number
filed, releases In 1906 being 19,632, and In
1907 17,538.
The amount of money represented by re
leases In 114 was i6.8! 1.51J.31, while in
1907 the total released was I125.639.512.S0.
Tills latter figure, however, .Includes a re
lease ota L'nion' Pacific Instrument in Hall
county representing $100,000,000. It will' thus
be seen that the proportion of releases in
the two years is practically the same.
Custer county leads In number of farm
mortgages filed In both years, and In 1906
the amount involved In that county was
110.111.050.92, which simply means, accord
ing to Commissioner Ryder, that there was
a, tradlngln real estate and a development
In that county probably unprecedented any
where n the state In recent years. Many
large ranches were changing hands, and to
day there are: a great many mora smaller
farms In Custer county. That county also
hows the greatest number of releases of
farm mortgages In. the two years, 890 in
1906 snd 6J3 in 1907. It has been a case, Mr.
Ryder thinks, where small loans have been
cleaned up and larger indebtedness assumed
for the purchase of more land. "The people
out there, as well as investors, have al
most unbounded confldenre In the future of
their section. This is true of about all the
western counties, since the people are be
ginning to realise that they have land
worth holding on to. and prospects In the
near future greater than they dared hope
for a few years ago. In fact, It is my opin
ion that there is a hustling and a practical
bunch of people In western Nebraska who
are now fully awake to the immense pos
sibilities of what they have In their con
trol. They are going to hold on, and out
aide of a very small area land in that sec
tion will never he had for a song or a team
of mult s again."
Insnrnnee Case Postponed.
The two Pacific coast companies which
ought a restraining order against the
auditor to prevent him from Inteffcrlng
with their agents in this state will make
their showing Way 4. to. which date the
bearing was continued this afternoon be
cause the state auditor was out of the
city. Until that time the two companies
may do business In Nebraska without
taking a risk of violating the law.
Another Phase of Primary Law.
The question of the r;g!it of a county
clerk to refuse to place on the official
ballot at the November election the names
of candidates which have been written
on the primary ballot, though no lines
were left for this purpose, is to be de
cided by the supreme court. The case
comes up from Dakota county, where the
district judge Issued a mandamus to
compel the county clerk to put the names
on the ballot, holding aiso that blank
lines must be left "on the primary ballot
for writing in names wnere no nomina
tions have oven made. The dcmocraltlc
party had no candidates at the primary
except for sheriff and for superintendent.
The names of other parties to complete
the ticket were written in. but the county
clerk refused to place them on the No
vember ballot until ordered to do so by
the court. He appealed the case.
Jaat Hpar filler.
The sensational story published in the
Lincoln papers yesterday that the State
Railway commission and the attorney
general would go to jail be fore obeying
any order of the federal court tending
to enjoin them from enforcing the bib
ley, law. does not apply to the legal de
partment, but Is hot air purs and simple.
According to the attorney . general the
legal department of the state will obey
any order Issued In a lawful manner by
either the state or the federal court. The
story published, Mr. Thompson said, will
tend to place the state In a bad light, he
aid. and there wai no Justification for tt.
"The legal department has not deried
nny coMrt." said Mr. Thompson, "and It
does not intend to go before the court
In any such attitude. If the supreme
court or the federal court Issues any or
der this department will obey that or
der." .
Mr. Thompson and members of the Hall
way commission expect to win another
victory' In the federal court Saturday for
the reason the federal court itself ha
already remanded the express cases and
lias held the state has Jurisdiction and
Is proceeding under that Jurisdiction. No
one . believes there will be any occasion
for a grand stand play about going to
Jail.

The report that Governor Sheldon was
suffering severe pains in his right arm as
a result of pitching the first ball in the
Sioux f'lty-Llncoln game yesterday Is not
true. Tho governor has suffered no serious
results from that act physically though
the poor exhibition he put up as a pitcher
Is still the talk of the state house, and will
be as long as the executive allows himself
to bo seen. The crowd Insisted that tho
governor take off his coat when he threw
that ball yesterday, but the executive de
clined, giving as a reason this morning,
he knew about where the bull would land
that Is he had a general idea that It would
hit somewhere betwen first base and home,
and for that reason he kept on his coat,
and the coat Is to blanio for it all. It was
the first ball the governor had pitched
since 1887. though he participated In a game
at Havelock last summer where the age
limit was 6 years.
Crete Sets Rood Example.
"There is so much grief aaid disappoint
ment connected with the fire escape end
of this bureau that when an encouraging
Incident comes my way I feel like record
ing It in the hope that it may M emulated,"
said Labor Commissioner Ryder. "As a
general rule, the most eligible and the most
useful place for a fire escape is on the
front of a building, especially if the struc
ture Is of old construction. But owners
insist on hiding their fire escapes, and not
orly that, they will not put up proper
signs Indicating where the escapes are with
out continual jacking up. Very often the
cost of escapes in the right place would
be less than the cost of the hidden ladders
or stairways, but that fact Is lost sight
of In the strange desire to give the public
the Impression that the building does not
need and has not got eny fire escape.
"At Crete yesterday I found a different
and much more commendable disposition.
The trustees of Doane college had planned
to put three escapes on Gaylord hall, on
tho rear walls of the three wings. After
goirg over the building with me they con
cluded that It would be much better to put
the escapes on the front of the building. In
the locations that presented themselves as
most likely to serve the larger number of
students in the shortest space of time in
case of emergency. This decision not only
means a substantial saving In money, but
It also means that there will be created a
confidence among students and parents
that is worth as much as the presence of
the escapes themselves.
"The Board of Education at Crete had a
difficult proposition to face snd one tint
means a large expense, but the members
are meeting It In a thoroughly business lik3
way. Their plans provide for cutting away
of window ledges wherever necessary so
that the platforms of their escapes will all
be on a level with the floors of the rooms,
with exits to the escapes that will be real
exits. When the Crete school equipment
of fire escapes Is in place It will, in my
Judgment, be fit to serve as a model for
any Board of Education to follow. For the
wholesome effect their action must have
on other men who are entrusted with the
safety of schools 'the Crete men deserve
to be complimented most highly, and this
should Include the superintendent. Prof.
Gregory, who has been most progressive In
his ideas." y

HUMBOLDT. Neb., April 16. (Special.)
The attendance of delegates at the
Women's Christian Temperance Union in
stitute Increased with tell second day and
good sized crowds greeted each session.
After the devotional exercises and musical
numbers a paper on "Missions" was read
by Mrs. Knowles of Pawnee. Mrs. Lydla
K. Andrews of Table Rock, gave a fine
reading, after which came the question
box, and a discussion of the problem,
"The best way to keep our boys from using
tobacco." The question of whether or not
we re benefitted by our Institutions was
answered by many In the affirmative. "Old
Soapy" was the title of a recitation by
Mrs. Bedea of Pawnee. Mrs.- Neshit of
Pawnee City gave an interesting talk and
In closing extended an invitation for the
Institute to meet at her home town negt
time, which invitation was unanimously
accepted.
The evening session consisted of an elo
cutionary medal contest at the church, par
ticipated in by five contestants from differ

Mood's SarsapaHlla
The Economy of It
"ONE HUNDRED -DOSES ONE DOLLAR"
The Success that has been won by Hood's Sarsaparilla is well known.
It is the standard remedy of the world for all blood diseases, humors and
eruptions; and as a general tonic, appetite-restorer and kidney and liver
specific, we doubt if its equal has ever been made.
But there is no feature of Hood's Sarsaparilla of which we are more
proud th an we are of i,ts practical economy.
A Bottle of Hood's Barsaparilla contains 100 doses, and will average
to last a month, while other prescriptions and medicines will lat but a week
or fortnight. Thus the argument for the great economy of Hood's. Srrsa
parilla is unanswerable.
As a Spring Medicine just now it is the best medicine you can pos
sibly take. This is a strong statement, but we can prove it a thousand
times ow. It is perfectly safe, puregenuine and reliable.
