CARD FROM JOHN DAWSON.
Explains Details of That Option on
Printing Plant Lots.

To the Editor Of the State Journal
Touching the purchase of an addi-
tional lot for the state printing plant,
my attention has been called to an
item in your paper:
THE committee which had charge of
the purchase of the property instruct
ed the attorney general to enter into a
written option with Mr.. Devlin, but 1t
is presumed the attorney general failed
to do So
AS I had supervision of this matter.
will you permit me to say that the
committee had no authority to take an
option or to instruct the attorney gen.
eral to enter into a written option; that
the committee did not instruct the at
torney general to do so; that the at
torney general would not have done so
If Instructed; that it would have been
a felony under section 1880 of the gem
eral statutes of 1901 to have done So;
that while the said law is sometimes
violated with impunity, the principal law
officers of the state may be expected
to recognize it and to obey it.

Assistant Attorney General.

Chicago. ILL.,. March 13-W. b
Biddle traffic manager of the ROCK
Island-Frisco system, said he would
not be surprised If the western rail-
roads should take the question of re-
duced passenger fares into the courts.
'I know this matter has been dis
cussed informally" he said, but am
not prepared to say that any definite
line of action has been determined
upon. The action of the Nebraska
legislature placed us at serious IN
convenience. We did not have time to
revise our rates. All we could do was
to notify our agents of the passage of
the law and instruct them to conform
with it's provisions in computing fares
in Nebraska. In that territory the
cost of operation is much greater than
Il is in the east, and there are other
conditions with which we have to con-
tend that the legislatures of the sew
eral states seem not to have taken into
consideration. Look what they did in
Wisconsin. 1t is only an example of
what should be done in every COM

DENTIST SUES PRINCESS
Chicago Dentist Claims She Handles
Princes Finances.

Chicago. March lS-"I brought this
suit against the Princess Engalitchef1,
instead of her husband" declared Dr.
Lee K. Stewart, a dentist, in Judge Glib
bons' court yesterday, because l had
learned that the princess, and not the
prince, was the head of the household"
The Jury returned a verdict allowing
Dr. Stewart S2SS for work upon the
princes royal molarS, and Immediately
the princess lawyer, E. E. Gray, made
a motion for a new trial. This motion
will be argued later. but 1t is known
that the attorneys contention VIII BE-
that the dentist brought suit against
Prince Engantcheff's wife instead OF
the prince.
According to those who know Prince
Engalitchef, attache Of the Russian
consulate and aid to Baron Schlippen-
bach this unexpected announcement OF
DR.. Stewart regarding the princess as
head of the household is nothing new.
For years in St. Petersburg, say those
IN a position to know, the princess has
been known as lord of her family ex-
chequer."
Not only in the matter of expenditures
for necessities and luxurieS is she the
dictator. Il is said, but in matters OF
family policy. her decision on any sub
feet is taken as final by her lord and
master.
Attorney Gray maintains and will so
argue in his motion for the new trial
that an error exists IN l1dI LII Ol0We al l
made the princess, instead of the prince,
defendant IN the suit. Because of this
the lawyer contends that his client, the
fair princess. is entitled to the decision;
that the jury, being unfamiliar with the
law. did not take into consideration this
technicaIity when they gave the verdict
to the dentist
DR.. Stewart, who says his time is
worth 10 cents a minute. states that he
prepared for and made all arrange
ments regarding the treatment or
Prince EngaIitcheff's teeth with the
fair princess herself. He says that she
told him she had charge of the noble
family purse. and for that reason ne
never thought 1t necessary to discuss
the matter with the prince.
The dentist also insists that the
princess agreed 20 pay for each portion
of the work as it was completed This,
he saws. she failed to do. When he had
finished a considerable portion of the
lob of inserting dainty gold filings and
readtusting the geography of the royal
mouth the dentist says the noblewoman
intimated that she would be greatly
pleased with a cut rate price on all OF
the work
