A man named Clifton is another repub-
lican well known in Savannah, who is

give young democrats who stood the civil
service a chance to get a fork in the
treasury pot.

Amounts to ConAscation

The Court HOLDS That IL Practically
Amounts to Conhscation.
Omaha, Ncb., July 30.-Yesterday after
noon. Judge Dundy of the United States
district court suspended the Nebraska
maximum rate law, passed by the last
legislature, which would have become
operative Aug l. The theory on which
the court granted the order is that the
law reduces the rate to such a low figure
that it practically confiscates all Nebraska
railroad property without compensation.
Friday the railroads operating in Ne
braska secured a temporary injunction
against the state board Of transportation
enforcing the new law, and they are
elated over their victory. This law is
the elimination of the efforts Of the anti
monopolists, of Nebraska. for many
years, and the decision is great blow to

open to-day under the order Of the court,

landed a few visitors at the gates. There
was no attraction in the evening TO draw
a crowd.

among the iron mills resulting from the
unsettled trade conditions has at last
come to affect the steel works of the Car

especially significant because this par
ticular department has never been slack
of orders before. 1t has been running
three turns, and under the new arrange
ment the men in each turn will work
every third week. The announcement of
the change caused general comment and
