OF such contracts as the one before us by
any insurance company to It's policy hold
This is a rule and regulation OF the
department Of Indiana.
Were a Nebraska life insurance company
to go to Indiana II would be forbidden to is
sue this kind OF a contract to its policy
holders. Under the lex tafionis OF our rec
~iprocity law we must forbid Indiana com
panies to issue them in this state to their
policy holders. And II is so ordered. This
order is made under and by authority OF
section 65 OF the Weaver law, and ooedl-
ence hereof is enjoined.
with contracts already issued we cannot
interfere. Any person desiring to be dis
engaged from a contract already made must
search for his remedy, IL he has any, In a
court Of equity.
The local representatives come under the
provisions Of section 20 of the Weaver law.
The company will be required to pay the
fee of 81 apiece and apply to have certin-
Gates issued to these agents.
Poynter Disappointed.
In an Interview this afternoon Governor
POINTER charged the railroads Of this state
and the lines between Denver and the coast
with having formed a combination, the pur-
pose of which is to hold UP the rate of trans
portation for soldiers from San Francisco to
their homes in this state.
Had | the time" said Governor Poynter,
81 would yet call a special session of the
legislature and bring to Its attention the
evidence which now exists to prove that the
railroads have entered into a combination
or pool, which Is contrary to the statutes OF
the state and against the decisions OF the
supreme court. The fact of the matter Is
the railroads running from San Francisco
into Omaha recognize that they have the
boys by the threats and they are making
the most they can Of the situation"
Governor Poynter is badly disappointed at
the result Of the scheme to raise funds for
the transportation of the troops and he
strongly inclines to the opinion that II the
railroads had any desire to act fairly In the
matter arrangements could have been made
to bring the regiment home. The attention
Of the secretaries of the Board OF Transpor-
tation may be cafled to the charges, but 1t
is not probable that the governor will take
any initiative steps in the case.
This morning Rev. Isaac Stone of Weeping
Water addressed the Southern Nebraska as
ISOLATION of Free Will Baptists, which is
holding its annual meeting in this city, on

tury.' Rev. w. w. Deckard and Rev. J. f.

About two hundred people wearing Jeffer-
sonian Democratic Grub badges left Lincoln
early this morning for Omaha to attend the
picnic of the Jacksonian club. Several OF
the state offices were closed this afternoon
and all Of the state officials and employees
who could possibly get away left on the
early train. Hagenow's band accompanied
the excursion. The appearance of Chairman
Gafin of the populist state central com
mittee, Auditor Cornell, Land Commissions

the insignia of the local democratic club,
oocasioned considerable comment at the
depot.
