DRAINAGE PROJECT IN COURT
Director of Logan District Filet Suit
to Stop Proceedings.
CHARGE OF FRAUD IS MADE
Three Director Aeeaeed of Conspir
acy to Improve Their Own Lands
at Uapense of Other
Land Owners.
FREMONT, Neb., Aug. S. -(Special )-
Gerhard Monnlch, one of the directors of
the Logan drainage district, yesterday filed
a suit in the district court to restrain
George Oeterloh, Herman Meyer and Henry
Schwab, who constitute a majority of the
board of director, from proceeding fur
ther. The plaintiff allege that It was under
stood that the plan proposed by the De
partment of Agriculture, which preserved
Logan creek as a watercourse, Was to be
adopted, but Inetead one entirely different
was decided upon and bids advertised for.
The petition also attacks. the constitution
ality of the act on a number of points not
raised Ih the previous case involving the
constltutlopallty of the drainage act, on the
ground of the plan of assessing the coat Is
unlawful, that It Is trade by parties di
rectly Interested and for their own private
Interest and gains, and also as giving un
limited power to the dlrecturs without any
restraint from the property owner. The
plaintiff also claims that the defendants
have conspired to Improve their own lands
at the cost' of plaintiff and others like
situated.
An injunction Is asked for to prevent the
defendants from entering Into any contract
for the construction of the ditch or In any
manner Interfering with Imogen oreek. The
directors of the Logan creek district have
advertised for bids to be opened August t.
Plaintiff does not ask for a temporary in
junction, but It is thought doubtful whether
they will proceed on account of the stilt.
A decision In favor of the plaintiff will
probably open up a lot of litigation over
other drainage districts.

EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
Meeting, Which Haa Jo.it Closed, By
No Meant the Longest
EEF0EM IN PRINTINO OFFICE
Joint Committee Epet to Save Got

large the Dlatrlrt of
Colombia,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. D. C. Aug. S. (Special.)
The extra session of congress, which has
Just closed. Is by no means the longest
on record. During the last fifty years
congress has been convened In extraordi
nary session a great many times. The
first session of the Fortieth congress was
convened at noon on the 4th of March,
1867, and did not adjourn, sine die, until
th date fixed for the meeting of the
second session, December S following, but
there were recesses from March SO until
July 1 and from July SO to November 1.
Tne regular session was called to order
on December i and remained In session
until November 10 following, but In .that
period there were two recesse aggregating
elgMy-nlne days. The Fortieth congress,
according to the records, was In seoslon
SOS 4&y out of a possible 730 days, and In
this respect Is unique in history.
There was an extra session of the For
ty-first congress convened on March 4,
189, but It. lasted only thirty-seven days.
Again, the following congress was railed
Into session on the 4th of March, 1S71, and
sat for forty-seven days. Then for six
years there was no extra session, but In
October, $77, President Hayes convened
the Forty-fifth congress, and fifty day
were required to complete the work cut
out.
The Forty-sixth congress met In special
session March IS, 1879. for a session of 108
days, but no necessity arose again for an
extraordinary session until President
Cleveland Convened the law-makers on the
7th of August, 1893. Thst session lasted
until the 8d of the following November.
Immediately after his Inauguration In
1897, President MeKlnley called congress
to meet In extraordinary session on March
15. when the currency question was taken
utf and the gold standard of currency
adopted after a session of 181 days.
The next was called by President Roose
velt for November t. 1903. and remained
until the date for the regular meeting, and
thereby arose the question whether a pe
riod of time eould elapse between 12 o'clock
noon on one day and 12 o'clock noon on
the same day. That fine point was de
cided In the affirmative, with the result
that each member received "mileage" for
the extra session.
The session Just cloved has been a Stren
uous one, and has drawn to Washington
a bigger rrowd of manufacturers and pro
ducers than has been seen here before in
two years. The effect of the lsbnrs of
the law-makers 1 stilt problematical, but
every one, In business from Maine to
Texas and from Florida to Alaska, is glad
that the agony Is over and that commer
cial conditions can now settle down to a
normal base to remain undisturbed for a
few years.
Reform ta Printing; Office.
Senator Smoot of Utah, who has been
most aotlvely engaged for the last six
months on the framing of the tariff bill,
Is entitled to a few months of substantial
rest, but the chance are th senator will
not have very much recreation this sum
mer. He has laid out a task for himself
which I herculean In Its proportions. The
senator I the chairman of the joint com
mittee on printing, and the Investigations
whloh he has made up to the present time
have convinced him that a radical change
should be made In the management of
the printing' office, which will produce
economical results, followed by th saving
of nearly $1,000,000 annually to the govern
ment, without reducing the efficiency of
the service In th slightest degree.
Some of th methods In the government
printing office are complicated to a marked
degree. Thla, It is said, is especially true
of the system of accounting, and It la
believed that the senator will bring about
some changes In that particular' branch
of th vast printing establishment which
will result in the saving of hundred of
thousand of dollars annually.
He ha decided to go at, the printing
office thoroughly and to bring to bear
upon th labor which he has assumed all
that energy and' force which ha made him
so successful as a business man.
Th Joint committee on printing has to
all Intent and purposes absolute power
oxer the conduct of affair In the print
ing office, so that whatever may be agreed
upon in th way of changes, whether In the
mechanical, auditing, purchasing or ad
ministrative departments of the office
when endorsed by the Joint committee, will
have th effect of direct legislation. Con
gress will not of necessity be compelled to
endorse th recommendation of th com
mittee, because those recommendations
will practically become law without fur
ther congressional action.
To Enlarsr District.
President Taft, who will from thl Mm
forward for at leaat a month, be Installed
at th summer capltol, Beverly, Mass., Will
during that time outlms a portion of his
message to congress and will tak up the
subject of recession to th district of Co
lumbia of that portion of th original ter
ritory which receded back to Virginia In
ISM.
All the old school geographies show the
Dlatriot of Columbia to be a square, bi
sected by th Potomac river, containing
100 square miles, practically half of which
was taken from the territory of Maryland
and the other half from Virginia. The
Vltglnla portions of th District of Co
lumbia ar ceded back to the old dominion
by act of congress In IBM. President Taft
is understood to be of the opinion that
recession wa illegal and unconstitutional
and therefor void. Already bills have
been introduced to restore Ihe original
boundaries of the district, but this will
meet awith emphatic objection on the part
of the people of Virginia generally, and
of the residents of the city of Alexandria
and Alexandria county In particular. The
state loat a considerable portion of Its
territory without Its consent wheit West
Virginia was carved from Its western sec
tion during the civil war, and If President
Taft undertakes to take another piece
away from the old state there is sure to
be a vigorous protest and a hot time In
congress Opinion la divided as to the
correctness of the president's position, but
it 1 deemed certain that th restoration
will not be accomplished without payment
by the general government of a very large
sum to the atat of Vltglnla to compensate
It for the loa of taxes and territory. Th
people most Interested are opposed to th
plan largely on account of the fact that
If they are restored to the Jurisdiction of
the District of Columbia they will at one
lose the right of frsnchlse.

of Its launching, which has since died.
but the theory of evolution has given us
a broader conception of God.
"The Influence of science on the Bible
truth Is consistent with itself. The spirit
of today Is to test the truth, dominated
by tho spirit of faith. Faith is the might
iest principle in the life of man. Thla,
too, Is an age of religious faith.
"Man 1 in unity with his religion. Every
nation and people has some form of re

thought la that of an imminent Ood. He
that Cometh to Ood must believe. It haa
been so In all age of the world.
"It is a natural thing to believe the
Bible. It Is the inspiration of meeting
the desire of man's spiritual and moral
nature. If It does not do this, then man
must search for something more satis
fying.
"The Christian feeds upon th spiritual
food of the Bible. It supplies hi spiritual
self a phyatcat food supplies the material
body. It create a longing to understand
and the need of strength outside himself.
a strength that can only be obtained from
above. Faith Is the assuranc of things
hoped for, and It is these fundamental
that ar supplied by the Bible. Take away
the Bible, the knowledge of the way, and
what I left?"

Personal God Must Be Invoked, Hay
Former Oniaba Paator.
The Rev. A. 8. C. Clarke, D. V., for
merly paator of th Low Avenue Presby
terian church, now of Evanatpn, III., spoke
from the pulpit of Westminster Presby
terian church yesterday evening on "Th
Profit of Prayr."
"None of man's funoUona Is more won
derful than prayer," said Dr. Clark. "It
is a very Strang thing to see a man with
drawing from hi fellows and going down
on hi knees, speaking to the seemingly
empty void. Prayer 'is a Journey of the
soul from th visible to the invisible. As
Montgomery says In the hymn that shows
hla own personal knowledge of It, 'Prayer
Is the upward glancing of an eye, when
only God is near.'
"When you think of it, prayer U based
upon certain vary wonderful assumption,
and the chief of these is the assumption
of a ptfjonal God You may philosophise
about a iioi. impersonal or personal, but
you can pray only to a God tnat reels and
wills."

MUST OBSERVE ROAD RULES
Chief Donahue Lara Down Law With
Respect to Drivers.
POLICEMEN TO CONTROL TRAFFIC
Will Soon Have Trra Men' at Bnalest
' Corner Wan Will Stop and .
tnrt Waaron and Ante
mebllea at Order.
"Drivers of wagons and automobile must
obey the road rules of Omaha."
This Is the declaration of Chief of Police
Donahue, brought out by many complains
against careless drivers, who lately have
been causing a great deal of trouble by
taking the left side of the road and In
not turning square corners on the busy
thoroughfares of the city.' The chief has
Instructed hi officers to enforce th road
rules, and. If ncoeseary, mak arrest to
teach the heedless ones a lesson.
"Last year Its arrests were mad for
this offense," said the chief, "and we are
tot going to stand for that many thl
year. This violation of the city's rules
must stop.
"The roal rules of Omaha say that s j
wagon or automobile must be driven on 1
the right side of the street. For turning j
corners they must not make an angle, but j
do It squarely. For instance. If a wagon I
Is going north on Sixteenth street and I
wants to turn west on Farnam It mul j
proceed alon Sixteenth to the rlsrht side 1
of Farnam and then make Its turn west, j
"At the busy corners of Karnatn and '
Douglas street, , I believe. We will oon j
have to adopt the pln med In the lnrcc r 1
cities of having two nolloemtn with whl"e i
at each corner. This will be for the hiiv
hour cf the day. These officers will
regulate the traffic at these corner h
keeping the lines of vehicles under their
direct control. They will stop Ihe line
of wagons and wl tn they wish them to
move along will stand a whistle. Omahn
Is coming to the plnce where It neetln this
system, and It Is only a short time until
we shall adopt the plan."
The chief Is of the opinion that a Wrlct
Observance of the road rules u-ould reduce
the number of automobile accidents In th
city. He says the cutting of street corners
ras csused a fev aecldtits here and man?
narrow escapes. He says It will 'go hntd
with the Joy drivers In the future who gel
Into trouble by refusing' to tbke square
turns at the corners.
