OWNER NOT BOUND FOR RENT
water Board Attorneys Advise Real
Estate Exchange ms to Per-
tinent Question.

After consulting for advice with John l..
Webster and Carl c. Wright, attorneys for
the water board in its litigation with the
Omaha Water company, and also with War
rem Switzler, the committee appointed by
the Omaha Real Estate exchange to look
into the matter reports that the water
company cannot hold property owners for
water rent in cases where the water has
been turned on at the request OF the tenant
The committee further reports:
I'VE are Of the opinion the water COM
pany has no legal right whatever to its
contention that the property owner is
holden for back water taxes, especially
when 1t has turned on the water and recog-
nized the tenant in accepting money for
same. We would recommend a subscrip-
ton be raised among the members of
the exchange or any property own
ers concerned in their unjust charges
sufficient to make a test case of
1t, and that the Real Estate exchange lend
its moral support to this suit, IL the attor-
ney taking the case is satisfied a judgment
in favor OF the property owner is prac-
tically assured, and such judgment will end
further annoyance on the part OF the Water
company"

strive to quickly establish the reputation

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful IL IL

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal r.

and purifier in nature. but few realize its
value when taken into the human system

but simply absorbs the gases and impurities
always present in the stomach and intes-
tines and carries them out OF the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok-
ing, drinking OF after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion, it whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which col
lect In the stomach and bowels; It disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the poison
of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form or
another, but probably the best charcoal and
the most for the money Is in stuart's Char
coal Lozenges; they are composed OF the
finest powdered willow charcoal, and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form. or
rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with
honey.
The daily use Of these lozenses will soon

their continued use, but on the contrary.

ImmateriaI.

With the possible exception OF Mr.. Hitch
cock and others closely related to him in
an endeavor to make some campaign thun-
der. excitement over what the legislature
did or did not do on the matter of fixing
salaries Of county officers is nil. The
county officers I'm Omaha said by the
WoTldHerald to be affected and nearly
scared to death refuse. with a stoicism that
is painful, to get excited or even interested
over the matter.
The general opinion expressed was that
the legislature did not intend to single out
any group of officers for a reduction in
salary but that 1t did intend to increase
the salary Of the treasurer in counties hav-
ing between 5000 and $1,000 inhabitants.
County Judge-elect Leslie said:
That amendment does not affect the
Office Of county judge. Even II the salary
were cut by the amendment there is a
further provision that the county judge
shall have fees up TO the amount of $500"
Deputy County Clerk Butler said:
I'VE hold the amendment does not affect
our office one way or another We are
paying no attention to II at all II need
be. we will fall back on the time-honored
defense OF all good men and hold the law
unconstitutional"
County Treasurer Fink said: II have
been too busy to pay any attention to the
matter; but you can say for me that what
ever the law is it will be obeyed by the
county treasurer Further than that have
nothing to say now"
! One of Sheriff Powers deputies said:
I'VE are not worrying at all. This Office
considers the law plain with reference to
| the compensation of the sheriff, and we
are living up to its provisions Someone
will have to show us IL we are drawing
more money than the law allows. We
rather think the shoe is on the other foot
with the county holding up and disallowine
bills which judge of the district court
says there is at least strong moral OBJ

One OF the judges OF the district cour
said:
