The court finds the evidence sufficient to

Wlirie an attorney In presenting a claim
against the state, to the legislature, know

and fraudulent appraisement as evidence
or Its va.Wlly and of the amount he la
entltlpd to recover thereon he la guilty
of gross unprofessional conduct and a
bieach of sound professional ethlra and
should receive suitable, punishment there
for. -
History- of Case.
According to the report of the refereea
the forgery complained of, was committed
by some one unknown, but the forged docu
ment was used by Mr, Fisher in support of
a claim for $11,600 presented to the leglBla'
ture. This claim was for lands In Dawes
onunty belonging to the estate of Herman
Gocddft, who died without heirs In this
country some time prior to the year 1901
Goodde waa a subject of the kingdom of
Prussia. Hla brothers and sisters In his
native country ergployed Mr. Usher to
look after fuclr1 Interests and to obtain from
the atate of Nebraska the rvalue of a sec
tlon of land1, which under the law would
escheat to the atate. Flshor obtained
decree declaring the lands .escheated, but
the valuo ot the land was not fixed by Uie
decree. An appraisement of the property
was ordered and Jts vajue fixed Nit $1,600.
Fisher filed with the anditor'and presented
to the legislature of 1901 a claim for pay
ment for the land In which be alleged that
its value .was $000, and as proof referred
to the decree and a copy -of the appraise
ment,' which he said was attached to and
made a part of his claim. No copy of the
appraisement was In fact attached and for
that reason tho claim was not allowed.
After the appraisement was made It was
fraudulently changed from $1,500 to $11,600.
Captain Fisher again presented the claim
to, tho legislature of 1903 and attached to It
a copy of tho altered appraisement and the
claim was again rejected. Ho again pre
sented It to the legislature of 19u6, together
- with the a Hero J appraisement and pressed
It for allowance and for the third time It
was disallowed.
When the. legislature of J90T met other
persons claiming to act for the Goedde
heirs presented .a claim for the land on
' the supposition that ' It -was escheated - to
the state." Captain Fisher was called be
fore the clatma committee of the house and
disclosed KM 'feet 'that- he .had recently
purchased the land from his clients for
11.000, less a commission of $30. The house
then passed a resolution requesting the
attorney general ,to Institute disbanrtfint.
proceedings Aglftt! capUirK Fisher. r
Acuialttal of Korgery.
The court In lis opinion says:
The respondent was acquitted of chang
ing or alluring . the appraisement and It
Is quite probable that he did not know of
lis alteration -until after he presented his
claim to tho legislature - of 1903, but It
appears thflT! during that year hla attention I
was directed to the matter and he must
have known that fact when he again pre
sented the claim tot 180iV; There Ib no es
cape front this concluaion "and so when he
used the fraudulent appraisement to aup
port his claim, after having knowledge of
Its condition, ho was guilty of gross un
profHM!oiml conduct and a breach of sound
professional ethics. : His conduct having
been brought to our attention by this pro
ceeding wit are tool at liberty to ovorlook
or condono 'It. Buch conduct In an officer
of this court not only merits, but actually
requires discipline therefor. The commit
tee has by Its report recommended leniency
In this ease and In view of all the cir
cumstances disclosed by the record we are
disposed to adopt the recommendation.
An appeal to tho district court by remon
strant In a IRiuor license case Is sufficient
to t-loao the saloon pending a decision In the
district, court, according to the decision of
the supreme court in the suits filed by five
Bchuyler saloonkeepers named Becker, Gar
veyi Krlvohlavek. Hegner and Varley. The
supreme court saya:
Where a .hearing has Been had upon an
application for. a license to sell intoxicating
liquors and a remonstrance thereto, and
aui h remonstrance haa been overruled and
a license Issued, and an appeal baa been
taken to the district court within a reason
able time, the license ao Issued should be
recalled and revoked pending the appeal
In the district court, and mandamus will
lsaue to compel the recall and revocation of
the license, :
This same question Is Involved In the
tuits file against the proprietor of Krug
park In Omaha for selling liquor after the
tillage authorities ot Benson had granted
i license over a remonstrance which was
later appealed to the district court ot Doug,
'.as county
On i el, earing In the case of Fred Teo
. man of Ousper county, charged with Il
legally selling and keeping for aale liquor,
Uie supreme court has modified Its former
opinion, but requires Yeoman to pay a
line of $600. Tbe syllabus, which contains
tli meat. of the law In the case, follows:
A defendant, when on trial charged with
the crime or selling Intoxicating liquor
without a license, is presumed to be lnno
fH until such time as the evidence es
tablishes hla guilt beyond a reasonable
luulx. aud lis Is entitled to have the jury
lo instructed.
A yersou charged with the keeping f
liitoxlt aiing liquors fur the purpose of
Unlawfully selling and disposing or the
lame, where aueh liquor Is found in his
boaaeseion, is not entitled to the presump
tion of Innocence which usually surround
the defendant In' a criminal prosecution
Vcaus. the statute makes such possession
presumptive evidence of a violation of
lhapter . it . of Uie annotated alaiutea of
W7. regulating tbe llrense and ssla of ls
toxlcatlng liquor In thia state.
The supreme court may reverse a Judg
ment of the district court In a criminal
rase In psrt and affirm It In part where
the legal part Is severable from that wblcn
is Illegal.
Because Jacob Klamm of Uncoln tailed
to prove that his petitioners for a saloon
license were freeholders and that ha him
self was a cltlsen of good character and
standing, the aupreme coart has reversed
the Judgment of the district court and
confirmed the order of the excise board
which refused him a license. Dr.. Samuel
Zane Batten and others file a remon
strance before the excise board and after
being overruled appealed to the supreme
court.
In reversing the decision of the district
court of Lancaster county, the supreme
court today held tlTM the Lincoln Excise
boerd had authority to limit tha number
of saloons to twenty-five. Jacob Klamm,
who was refused a license, spepe'ed to the

BIG BUSINESS IN SELL-OUTS
Ihririnf Trade Done by Chicago
Baaoh in Relinquishments.
NEW EVIDENCE FROM SECRETARY
Company strives to Snow tkat It Waa
Distinct from Inalvlfaal Mem
bers la Ita Transactions.
The Chicago ranch corporation has per
sistently undertaken t show that It was
an entirely distinct proposition In many of
Its transactions from the Individual mem
bers comprising the corporation.
This was demonstrated Thursday morning
In a bunch of correspondence Introduced In
evidence In the Balrd land rial in federal
court between Individual officers of the
concern and some of their agents In Craw
ford and elsewhere.
F. 8. Allen, a real estate man and locater
of Crawford, had a number of transactions
with W. R. Coleman, president ot the Chi
cago Ranch company In the matter ot
securing relinquishments from entrymen
and obtaining other parties to tile on these
relinquishments. Mr. Allen rendered his
bill for services to the Chicago Ranch com
pany and was emphatically turned down
by the corporation on the ground that It
was not responsible for the acts of Mr.
Coleman or other officers of the concern.
So Mr. Allen sv.ed the company for his
services and Mr. Balrd wss sent out to
compromise wtlh him.
This correspondence showed tnat the
ranch company was doing a thriving busl-
ess by a succession of relinquishments and
thus concentrating all the filings Into the
hands of a few of the favored members
of the corporation.
This evidence was disclosed when
Charles F. Heywood of Chicago, oecrctary
of the Chicago Ranch company, was called
to the stand Thursday morning. He Identi
fied the signatures of Mr. Cclemnn, Mr.
Balrd and others to this correspondence.
Mr. Heywood's further testimony was to
the effect that he belonged to the $60 group
of filers, having been paid all his expenses
for filing, and that he was one of tha
organisers of the ranch company. He sub
sequently paid a number of monthly as
sessments, and finally seeing that the
ranch was a losing proposition, to him,
eventually withdrew from the concern alto
gether.
The other witnesses' of the forenoon were
William Marvin, who was recalled for
cross-examination; his daughter; Mies Cora
Marvin of Chicago, who testified to tha
conversation between her father and Mr,
Balrd at Chicago relative to the $200 he
was to receive upon making final proof
and turning his claim over to Balrd.
Treasurer J. N. Hostetter was recalled
to testify as to the good character of Mr,
Balrd, which he said was "good."

A POLICEMAN'S LOT
May Be Happy One After All.
An 111. Ex. Chief of Pollcs found au
easy snd safe wsy out of the ills caused
by coffee. Ha Bays:
"I suffered intensely from heart trouble
and nervousness for five yesrs, and though
treated by some . of the best physicians
In thla city, did not get permanent relief
until I changed from coffee to Poatum.
"A friend of my family was visiting at
our house and seeing my condition, insisted
that coffee was at tha bottom of my
trouble. I confess I nvas skeptical but
promised to try Postum In place of coffee.
"It was nearly three weeks before I
noticed much of any change, as my case
waa a bad one. Then I saw that my
nervousness was gradually disappearing.
A little later I was able to sleep a part of
tha night on my left side, something I
hsd been unable to do for 6 years at least.
"I kept on using Postum, and tha result
Is, so far as heart trouble and nervousness
sre concerned, I .am a well man.
"Tha best proof ia that I am writing
this with my own hand, a thing I was
unable to do for several years prior to th
change from coffeo to Postum."
There's a reason."

The Stomach Does
Hot Cause Dyspepsia
Neither Will It Cure It Because Tbe
Lack of Gastric Juices
Prohibit Relief.
The stomach is a strong, powerful or
gan, which Is composed of muscles of
great strength. It Is filled during diges
tion with gastric julooa which, when the
stomach, extending and compressing the
food, dissolve It and separate the nourish
ment from the. waste matter. If however,
these gastrlo juices are lacking, tha stom
ach Is not capable of digesting the food
because It hss not the tools with which to
work successfully.
The gastrlo juices when In a perfect
state do away with all foul odors, fermen
tation and decay, reduce tbe food to a dls
Integrated mass and the stomach then
presses It into the Intestines where another
form of digestion takes place. Then the
Intestines take from this mass of food all
that la nourishing and glva It to the blood.
The waste mattsr Is thrown from the
system.
If Instead of nourishment the Intestines
receive Impure deposits combined with
poisonous and imperfect gastric Juice, it
can be readily seun that they must turn
such Imperfect nourishment Into tho blood.
Tho blood then being unable to give each
part of the body that which It requires,
becomes Impoverished and disease Is spred
broadcast.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets corrects such
a condition at once. If the gastric Juices
are lacking and imperfect these tablets do
their work Just ths same.1 They build up
the elements In ths Juice which aro lack
Ing and remove those elements which cause
disturbance.
Meat, grains, fluids, vegetables and deli
cacies, in fact each portion of a luge meal
have been piaeea in a glass vial and
Bturat'a Dyspepsia Tablets have digested
them to a perfect fluid Just as a healthy
stomach would do.
A large complex, hearty meal holds no
terrors, for a dyspeptic It Btuart s Dyspep
sia Tableta are used. Abnormal eating,
lata dinners, rich foods cause HI effects to
the stomach, but when Btuart s Dyspepsia
Tablets aro used one may eat when and
what one will without danger of dyspepsia
or discomfort.
