THE COURT WAS THIRSTY.

So 1t overruIed the Supreme Ceart
and Bought Itself q Drink.
Just as Shakespeare has been ac-
cepted for years and years as the de-
Gliding umpire in most matters literary,
SO the Nebraska people had grown to
look upon the supreme court of their
state as the fountain head of wisdom,
whose opinions could not be gainsaid.
1t is way people have of regarding
supreme courts in most states, as mat
ter of fact. uFt
William Alstadt, little German,
whose readiest Identification among
his people was by the name of "Bis-
marck," was not one who cared over
much for tradition, and one summer
day, after having been harangued by
two lawyers until he was almost burst
ing with thirst, he made a decision
which brought him fame. 1t does not
make any especial difference what was
the question at issue. 1t was something
about dog. There was sensible side
to it and a technical side. The "tech-
nical" lawyer presented bushels and
tons Of authorities, and finally wound
up with a triumphant declaration that
the supreme court lad decided on q
similar case before and had decided his
way.
When he sat down, Bismarck, with a
sigh of relief, said: 81 decide for de
oder feller. Come on, poys, let's dake a
drink
But" cried the defeated lawyer, in
astonishment, 81 tell you, your honor,
that the supreme court has decided ex.
actly opposite"
MY frient." said Bismarck, sin shen-
cral l hat some sympathies nit dot
SUPREME court. But on hot day, mi t
a fool of lawyer dalkin' four hours,
I am mofed to consult der good sense
AID shudgment of Bill Alstadt, j. P.
Bill -Alstadt is not only convinced, but
subreme court of Nebrasky wants to
make tam fool off itself in question
like dis it can do so, but dot aint bind
ing on dis shustice shop. Der supreme
court is hereby oferruled. Der plain
tiff gifts ter dog, and der court will now
broceed to spend der fees in dis case
in way dot his shudicial thirst sug-
gests, nit great gordiality. Come on,
poys."
Thus it was that the supreme court
was overruled, and as a plain state
ment of fact Justice Bill Alstadts de-
cision has always been followed in sim
liar cases brought in Nebraska tri-
bunals.A In the same way the half true
Shakespearean sucking dove theory is
susceptible of revision or reversal
