STATE FAIR BOARD
IN TRACTION ROW
Up to State Board of Agricul
ture to Tear Up Tracks on
Grounds to Make Way
for Swine Barn.
(From a Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln, Neb, Oct. 13. (Special.)
It wil Ibe up to the State Board of
Agriculture to pull up the tracks of
the Lincoln Traction company run
ring into the state fair grounds in
order that it may erect the big $80,
000 swine barn at the place selected
for it, 1
The location necessitates the mov
ing of the tracks of the street car
company in order to give room for
the barn. The company refuses to
remove its tracks and also refuses to
rebuild them at a location donated by
, the state.
The matter came up at a meeting of
the State Board of Agriculture and
representatives of the traction com
pany.
Mr. Bramlett, manager of the trac
tion company refused to accept any
oner of the board to adjust matters.
He refused to do anything which
might cause expense to the car com
pany, notwithstanding the week's
state fair session brings into the com
pany one of its ftreatcst revenues.
The board . offered to donate
grounds for the- new tracks entering
tne tair grounds west t the bov s
camp and then pass north of the
camp striking the grounds near the
live stock pavilion. .
. Mr. Bramlett did not want to go
to the exepense of grading the track
way and then the board offered to
bear the expense of the grading. Still
Mr. Bram'jftt refused saying that if
the state fair associations wanted te
tracks laid in that location they coull
lav them and stand the expense not
only of the grading, out the laying,
the rails and the ties. He said that
by doing so the Fair association
would own them.
If the company, will not move its
tracks where the location of the barn
has been determined upon, the fair
management will tear them up and
make room. r v t
According to statements made, it Is
probable that the business interests
of Lincoln may take hold of the mat
ter, as it is not .likely that they will
s " v any a'n on the part of
the ftAft car company that in any
way cmbarasses the State fair in the
management of its property and the
permanent improving of the same.
, Already there are rumors that the
peoplei may be called upon to vote
this spring on the city owning the
street, fcar service, and the action 6f
the company today is known to have
made friends for the proposition who
were Opposed to city ownership be-

Supreme Court Reverses '
v Judgment in O'Brien Case
(from a Staff Correspondent)
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 13. (Special.)
The supreme court reverses the judsr-
ment of the district court of Douglas
county in a case brought by James
O'Brien against the South -Omaha
, Live Stock exchange, which expelled
him from membership therein for al
leged bad faith and dishonest conduct
in violation of certain of its rules and
by-lawst ' 4 1
Ait initiation fee of $1,000 was paid
by Mr.' O'Brien for a certificate of
membership. He , pleaded 'guilty to
the charge against him and his cer
tificate of membership was cancelled
v and he was expelled from member-
ship.-, 'V
He brought suit to recover $3,000,
the alleged value of the certificate,
and was awarded $1,414 damages, and
the stock exchange appealed. -
The court holds that courts cannot
interfere with the enforcement of
rales and by-laws of incorporated
voluntary associations or exchanges
organized not for pecunary . gain, but
to provide convenient facilities for the
orderly conduct of business at the
:- common expense. ,' "

;To Fierce Bayonet Attack
; Fremont, Neb., Oct 13. (Special

mer Fremont boy who was wounded

try arrive there and are put into ac
