The- lumber dealers of Omaha filed an

Into the city from the south and the north-
wet-t. while Lincoln waa given the porfer
er.tlsl rate out. This made the rate equal
and fair to both. The rate to points In
the state now from Omaha compared with

Antl-fealnon Lennae Meeting?.
A committee, -appointed by the leaders of
the Antl-Balonn league met at the Young
Mer.'i Christian association lust night to
pass upon a legislative ticket. This com
mittee expects to recommend to the county
opt log adherents who to vote for In the
fall election. The fact that a political
meeting was held In the rooms of the
Younjr Men's . Christian association has
created some adverse ' criticism, as the
building was erected by popular subscrip
tion and therefore la supposed to be a non
political Institution.
The daUaton of the court In the park
commission case will aeettle a long con
troversy over .the question who has a
right te appoint the- membera of the com
. mission. There are two sections of the
statute, 'one giving the appointing power
to the 'district judges and the other to
the 'mayor and city council. In recent
years the right hss been exercised by t lie)
mayor arid City council, ; but laat apring
the ' attention of the' district Judges waa
called to the statute giving them the ap
pointing power, and after some discus
sion . oxer iue validity of the law. they
appointed a full board.

piration of the term of G. T. Mills and
by the removal from the city of J. Y,
Craig. The district Judges reappointed Ed
ward Cornish, K. P. Berryman and W. R.
Watson, then serving, and named Rome
Miller and John Latenser for the vacant
places. Mayor Dahlman would not con
cede the right of the judges to appoint
and for the two vacancies he named Rome
Miller and John Neble, editor of a Danish
paper.
The decision of the supreme court will,
therefore, unseat Mr. Latenaer, but Mr.
Miller, being also an appointee of the
mayor, will still hold his placa.
