Does Not Anect Bic Counties.
Attorney General Brown said today that
the decision in the Tucker jury law case
has not affected the special statute govern
ing Lancaster Douglas and Gage counties.
There has been some speculation as TO the
effect Of the invalidation Of the new general
act because of the fact that the special
statute is not complete in itself, but refers
to the measure governing the state at
large 1t was claimed recently by Ian
caster county lawyers that there was some
question as to the special act governing
the three counties having more than SO,VO
population, but the objection was based
largely on the fact that the session laws
referred to a certain section Of the old
statute which had been displaced by
different provision Of the Tucker law. The
invaiidation of the latter has cleared up
doubt on that score, according to Brown.
Made Quick work.
LAWYERS who we're anxiously awaiting a
decision as to the validity of the Tucker
Jury law were greatly surprised at the
speed with which the supreme court dis
posed Of the question. The case was sub
mitted in the forenoon and in the evening
Il was held by the entire court to be un-
constitutional and void as whole. Such
rapidity of action has been excelled only
once. in the register Of deeds case, when
the decision was rendered in little more
than an hour after the attorneys began to
submit Il. statehouse officials point to the
outcome in the jury law case as evidence
that even the judiciary can act expedi-
tiously when there is real need. Because
Of the impossibillty OF applying the pro-
visions of the act relative TO the selection
Of Jurors from the list, the attorney gem
eral had advised that they withhold action
in criminal cases until the validity OF the
act had been passed upon.
1t develops that the act was the work
Of a young Richardson county attorney
who believed that he had devised an in
fallible method to insure the honest and
unpreJudiced selection of Jurors by leaving
n entirely to chance Tucker had claimed
that Il was advocated by the State Bar
association

Rect workers Cain wealth.
The Russian sugar beet workers who have
been employed In the fields at Grand Island
North Platte and at Colorado points are
returning to the city by the trainlosd with
their boarded savings. Today two train
loads came in from Michigan, where they
have been working in the beet fields. The
railway officials estimated that there were
nifty families on the two trains, but they
are unusually large. There were from
three to nine children in each Of the re-
turning households. The fidelity with which
the Roosevelt doctrine Is adhered to among
these people is shown by the fact that one
of the coaches. which was Allied to capacity
represented sixteen tickets. Each family
brings back a considerable sum, varying
with the number of children able to work
in the fields, the sums ranging from $500
to 1900.
