The petty fight between the police de
partment and the traction company at
Lincoln is off at last, and cars are now
running on their old time and have per-
mission to increase their speed at any
time they so desire. They also have per-
mission to run within less than 100 feet
of each other or closer if they so desire.
This was the result of Il number Of citi-
Zens getting into the game. These citi-
zens bore down on the members of the
excise board and the members of this
body straiGhtway bore down on the po-
lice to make them let up. Consequently
the chief of police issued an order to his
men not to modest the street car en-
plOyes, no matter how fast they run or
how close together.
Experts in the auditors office are busy
figuring up the amount of taxes due the
state from various counties and when
complete it is believed the figures Will
be s., 29S, 600. Of this amount Douglas
County owes more than any single coun-
ty. it being delinquent to the amount of
1929, 4S2. Lancaster County is short
$1O6, $40. These figures will be used in
the auditors biennial report. The scav-
enger law was enacted by the late legis-
lature to clean up these unpaid taxes,
but just how well it will succeed is not
yet known.
Mrs. Mark Woods, of Lincoln, was
robbed of 500 worth of jewelry while en-
route home with her husband from a trip
east. Mrs. Woods had placed the jewels
in channels bag, which she pinned to
her gown before retiring to her berth for
the night. In the morning the jewels
were missing. Mr.. Woods thinks the
robbers were after a roll Of bills which
he had displayed during the early even
ing while paying the conductor and pOr-
ter for accommodations on the sleeper.
He intends to bring suit against the COM
pany.

from Washington that the vouchers had
not been received. Duplicates We're

The matter Of furnishing text books to
the students of the state university at
cost will be taken up by the board Of
regents at their next meeting. The mat
ter will be brought up by c. s. Alien,
one of the Lincoln members of the board,
and if the plan is practicable and there
is any disposition shown by the students
for such method being adopted Mr.. Al
len will advocate it.
