Schlitz Brewing Company Paws the
Fee Demanded.
FIGHT OVER QUESTION is ENDED
The City Wins Victory In the Collection
of the $500 License Fee When Brew
ing Company Started Litigation
to Pay Only $500.

The fight between the city and
the saloon keepers has ended.
and everybody is happy. When
the time came for paying the
licenses on the sixth of the month
all the saloon keepers maintained
that the fee should be but two
hundred dollars according to
law. The city held for five hun
dred, as that was the amount
collected under the township
government last year. Gradual
ly all paid up, but not until after
a general closing down and
locking of doors, except the sew
en- or eight saloons operated by
the Schlitz Brewing Company.
These saloons resisted the five
hundred fee and commenced
actions against the city to COM
pei the issuance of licences at
two hundred dollars. The air
was full OF all sorts of litigation
until Tuesday of this week, when
the Schlitz people came to the
terms imposed by the council
acting under the direction of
City Attorney Walsh, and they
have paid in five hundred dollars
for each iicence, and all are again
doing business.

Is this Business?

The county board of supervis-
ors held a meeting Monday, last
ing from nine o'clock in the
morning until six o'clock in the
evening, and then adjourned.
At this meeting there we're
5,55S OF bills on file, many of
them dating back before the
first meeting of the board, which
was in April. Of these bills
there was allowed the sheriff
board bill for four months and
$50 in bounties. Just why
people having bills against the
county should be compelled to
wait month after month for their
pay is a question. Business
men and officials have to meet
their bills and the utter disre-
gard OF the county board as to
the county's obligations is
certainly not creditable to this
board. The board should show
the same regard for the claims
against the county as they would
give totheir own business affairs.
The county may be in hard shape
but that would not prevent the
auditing of these claims.
The board has madean arrange
ment for the cashing of orders
that it knows to be illegal, but
there will hardly be any critic.
ism of this, but there is critic
ism due when they will let
pass by two meetings and over a
period of many months several
thousand dollars worth of claims
without even giving them a look.
It is understood that the board
will not meet aggin until Novem-
Der. It is hardly to be believed
that the board will allow many
claims to wait from March to
November without acting upon
them.

the Scientific American; In the

There are 1416 Children Of School Age in

Yet to Count.-More School
Room Necessity

L. H. Lien has practically complet-
ed the taking of the school census.
Mr.. Lien said Tuesday that he had
covered the entire city with the ex-
ception of Houghton, and found 1416
children between the ages of four
and twenty. All children younger
OF. older than that are not considered
in taking this census. It is not at
all surprising that with so many
children in the county that the
school board should be finding them
selves short of school room this year.

THE STATE IN A NUTSHELL.
ONLY NET CREDITS TAXABLE.
Attorney General Prout SO Advises
Board of Equalization.

LINCOLN--Attorney General Prout
handed down an opinion holding that
net and not gross credits are taxable
under the new revenue law. His ac-
ton was taken at the request of the
State Board of Equalization, which
will now instruct county assessors to
allow all owners of credits to deduct
their Indebtedness when making out
their personally schedules. In effect
the holding will mean much to the
wholesale and jobbing interests of
Omaha and Lincoln, which had been
protesting against the heavy burdens
by taxation of gross credits, since
much of their business is done on
credit.
Attorney General Prout follows the
line of reasoning adopted by Commits
sioner Duffie in the opinion which he
wrote when the law was attacked in
the supreme court last fall. There
is some question as to the weight
which can be given to the commits
sioner's opinion. since the court did
not in express language approve of
it, and Chief Justice Holcomb has
been quoted as saying that the Duffie
view of the matter is a mere dictum,
not binding in law. 1t was charged
at the time that the court had enough
to do in handling the general ques.
ton of the constitutionality of the
measure without going into the credit
problem. However, the board having
obtained an expression from the
states legal adviser, will follow that
as the law until someone steps in to
test the law by injunction or man.

prospects of any such litigation.

Typhoid Germs Are Abroad.

LINCOLN-The capitol building Of
Nebraska is suspected of harboring
the germs of typhoid fever and ma
laria. 1t Is asserted that bad venti-
faulty plumbing are responsible. At
tention has been called to the subject
because of the prevalence Of illness
among the officials and employees of
the building. Three clerKs of offices
in the east wing of the building are
now confined to their homes with ty.
phoid fever, and many others are suf-
fering from grip and malaria. Secre-

This Is Miraculous.

Manhattan, Kans., March 14.-One
of the strangest cases that has ever
been heard OF in Riley Co. is that Of
the three.year-old daughter of MIR.
Jonas Brubaker of this place.
Some time ago the little girl took
whooping cough, which was followed
by pneumonia. When the pneumonia
left her. she was taken down with
malaria fever with at times symptoms
of Spinal Meningitis.
The family doctor brought her safe
ly through these troubles, but after
the fever Bright's Disease set in and
the doctors gave her up. Her father
tells the rest of the story:
'We began to give her Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and after she had taken
about three and half boxes, she was
entirely cured. Now she is well as
any child, running and playing as II
nothing had ever been the matter
with her The doctors said she was
beyond the reach o: medicine. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved our lit
tie girls life, when she was so far
into the chronic stage of Bright's
Disease that we thought nothing could
save her"

lake in the deep water, about an
eighth of a mile below where the
