From a stan Correspondent
LINCOLN, Jan. 7.--Cspecial. )-Attorney
General Thompson has decided oflcially
that Robert Cowell has not disqualified
himself for ONCE because he failed to take
the oath along with the other state Of
ncers. Mr.. Thompson dug up a supreme
court decision directly I'm lipe with the case
which is to the effect that Mr.. Cowell can
go before a notary public in Omaha, take
the oath and mail the same to the secre-
tsry Of state. That's all there is to It.
In the meantime DIR. winnett and ]. A.
Williams, the other members of the COM
mission. have been on the ground for sew
eral days waiting for Mr.. Cowell to come
down and help organize. Inasmuch as the
commission has absolutely no power and
will have none until the Legislature enacts
law defining its duties. Mr.. Cowelrs alb
sence from Lincoln has done no harm to
any one.
