JUROR A SPENDTHRIFT so
THIRD TRIAL IS GRANTED
ID, A. Davis Was Acting I'm
der Guardian Lille A. Turner
Gets Another Hearing.

A third trial of the damage suit of Lille
A. Turner against the Omaha & Council
Bluffs Street Railway company has been
granted by Judge Kennedy because of the
incompetency of one of the jurors.
Douglas A. Davis, who was drawn as a
juror in the second trial of the case had
been adjudged a spendthrift and was act
ing under a guardian at he time he
served, which fact was unknown to the
attorneys. When asked his occupation m
the examination, he said he was a horse
trader and declared that he knew of no
reason why he should not be a competent
and fair juror. Judge Kennedy held that
although his financial incompetency might
not make him unfit for jury service, he
was guilty of Misrepresentation in not de-
claring 1t when asked concerning his fit
ness.
The suit was brought by Lille A. Turner
for 5000 damages alleged to have been suf-
fered in an accident at Twenty-third and
Cunning streets in 1906. 1t was tried once
before Judge Troup and the verdict was
for the company. This judgment was va
Gated by Judge Troup because OF a fault
in his Instructions to the jury, and tn,

No matter how deeply the work.
ing people of North America are
interested in the present status of
affairs in Australia, the first coun-
try insthe world that has come I'M
der control of labor government,
the cables maintain silence that
is significant. But the mail steam
ers are still operating, and from
the Australian newspapers that
are now arriving, the votaries of
special privileges in this country
can obtain no comfort.
Premier Fisher, the miner who
holds the reigns of government in
Australia, has prepared a program
of proposed legislation that would
take the breath away from our
own conservative and reactionary
politicians. Premier Fisher has
announced that the payment of old
age pensions will begin in July.
He estimates that after the first
year old age pensions will cost the
commonwealth about $10,000,000
annually. Invalid pensions will
also be established when the aged
have been cared for. A transcon-
tinental railway is to be built by
the government; 23 ships are to be
built; minimum wages enforced;
the iron and steel business is to be
nationalized as the entering wedge
to the specialization of monopolies,
and many other reforms are to be
introduced without delay.
Where is the money to come
from to put some of these revolu-
tionary proposals into effect? Well,
the Australians don't believe in alb
sentee landlordism nor in specula-
ton in the soil that was created
for all of Gods children, and not
merely for few rent-gatherers.
So they are going to pile taxes on
the land-grabbers and operate pub
lie utilities for the people instead
of for coupon-clippers. The Aus
tralian cabinet is composed of two
miners, hod carrier, a carpenter,
a metal worker, a newspaper man
and an honest lawyer. These sim
ple-minded folk have their own
ideas how to run things, and are
not much worried about the "sa-
cred" or divine rights of capital.

TURKS TO PROBE
INTO KAlSER'S
AFFAIRS

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
CONSTANTINOPLE, juno g.
Complying with the personal re-
quest of German Ambassador Won
Bieberstein, Grand Vizier Hilmi
Pasha yesterday asked the Young
Turks investigating committee to
turn over to him as soon as pos
sible the letters written by Kais-
er Wilhelm to Abdul Hamid, when
he was on the throne of the Otte-
man empire. The German ambas-
sador demanded that Hilmi give
him the letters. The grand vi1ier
daelared that was impossible to dc
as they had not yet been placed
in possession of the government
and their contents YVES not even
known to him officially. He said
however, that they sould be re-
turned as soon as they were re-
leased by the committee.
The letters, which were found
In YildIlz Kioska, when the palace
was captured, are reported to
prove the kaiser's support of Alb
dul's despotism.

that next year the American Fed

in view of making some recommen-

looking toward political action
along the lines followed in Europe
