LOVE STORY Is TOLD.
Or. Nichols at Springfield Describe,
Marriage Vow Before Pic
ture of Dead.

Springfield, H., AIN. 1G.-Dr. Charles A.
Nichols, charged with sending improper
letters through the mails to Mrs. Susan
Day, divorced wife of William Day, for
mer assistant attorney general of the
United States, On the witness stand de-
scribed the ceremony attending the COM
mon law marriage to Mrs. Day which he
claims took place and which she denies.
'Shortly before I went to Louisville, KY,
to attend school, the doctor explained,
Susie said she had heard there were
wealthy and beautiful women there who
would wed poor students. She said she did
not want ne to go without some tie to
bind us, and I suggested that we be mar
ried. She told me she could not think of
marrying SO soon after her divorce from
Day, and that she did not want it to be-
come known that her father was educating
her second husband as he had Day.
She suggested a common law marriage
and insisted it was all right. About De-
cember 20, 1903 we went through the cere-
ing before a picture Of her dead son. I
asked her if she would take me as her
welded husband and she replied Yes We
then knelt before the picture and prayed.
There were no witnesses to the
because We wanted it kept a secret"
When shown the letter on which the wo-
mans complaint is founded, DR.. Nichols
identified it, but denied that a stamp had
been placed upon it by him. He declared
it was sent by a special messenger. and
also insisted there was no Objectionable
statements in the letter.

ARE AT
BAY IN NEBRASKA
Burlington and Union Pacific
Have Each Lost Out in
the Courts.
ROADS MUST PAY TAX
But If They Appeal Their Cases, Man.
Schools Dependent Upon Tax for
Operating Expenses, May
Have to Close.

Lincoln. Nab., Jan. 17.-Here at Lin
coin the belief exists thai the state has
at last got the political roads, the Bur
iington and Union Pacific, at bay. For
three years these two roads have done
limos as the pleased with the politics
Of Nebraska. When they could not get
what they wanted from the dominant
party, the republicans, they went over
and. had democrats do 1t. This wasi
comparatively easy under the old{
regime, because it was the PLEASANT
habit of the roads to keep two or more
democratic leaders on their payroll
After Bryan secured control of the
democrats, however, they found them
selves opposed to a power they couldI
not reach. Since hen they have dealt
almost exclusively with the republic
ans.
First Sign of a Break.
The absolute control of the roads over
several legislatures and their refusal to-
allow the enactment of laws hat did,
not affect them directly, but which
were intended to curb the rapacity of,
other interests aroused an intense feel,
ing in the state, and presaged q revolu-l
ton. The first of it came last summer
when the railroads failed to nominate
Duffie for supreme judge. Letton, the
new member of the court, won as an
independent, Inc his candidacy served
to yitaliZe the forces opposed to rail-
road domination.
To add to the sorrows of the rail-
roads the state board raised their taxes
as much as they did everybody else's.
They objected, threatened and finally
did go into the federal court with an in,
junction. Judge Munger's denial Of
that Injunction leaves the roads facing
"a pretty ~precarious situation.
What the Railroads Wish.
They want to name Willard to sues
.ceed himself as United States senator:
they want to name the three railroad
commissioners who will serve if the
constitutional amendment submitted
this fall carries; they also want to have
something to say about who shall be
governor and members of the state
board that fixes their taxable valua-
ton.
If they appeal the injunction suit
they can hold up the payment OF taxes
for three or four years. If they do
this twenty per e of the district
schools of the state will either have to
close their doors or else curtail to the
minimum the humble of months in a
year.
Schools Dependent on Them.
In many of the districts the railroads
are the heaviest taxpayers. This is
due to the fact that they do not pay i'll
each county the actual value or APP
prOXimate value of their property hold
ings. Instead the state board finds out
the total value of the railroad in the
state and divides it by the number of
miles in operation. This gives a fixed
figure per mile, and this adheres alike
to every mile in the state. For instance,
the main line of the Union Pacific is
valued at 5000 Il mile.
In a number of school districts in
the extreme west there are from sever
to fifteen miles of the rOal in the dis
