Of Bridge Builder

ney eGneral Willis Reed Is making an at
tempt to discover whether the state of
Keb-aska ran be held for a 10 per rent
charge or royalty on all state bridges
erected which use the so-called Luten
reinforced concrete arch In the con
struction. He believes that the patent Is not
legally binding and that the Institution r
a suit to ompt'l the si ate to pay the
amount claimed because of the construc
tion of the Superior state aid bridge need
not be paid. The fact that he suit was
brought in the district court of the
United Plates of Northern Iowa Instead
of In Nebraska is not pleasing to the at
torney general and the Intimation In a
letter sent by Luten to Representative
Dalbey of e Bat lice and forwarded to Mr.
Reed, that the attorney general Is not
hunting trouble, is not setting well on
the legal representative of the state.
He replies that the case might as well
be transferred to Lincoln, in which can
the state will not plead sovereignty, but
will test the bridge Idea on Its legal
merits.
