JURY TAMPERINC THE IRENE
Douglas County Bar Association Has
a Serious Session.
EXECUTIVE COUNCIL TO ENQUIRE
Endorsement Given TO Movement to
Poll the Lawyers Of the state on
Preference for Candidates
for JudEeships

The Omaha Bar association went on rec
ord at it's meeting Saturday evening as de-
claring that il believed jury tampering had
been going on in the district court OF
Douglas county and passed unanimously
a motion that the executive council Of the
association be ordered to devise, II possible,
a plan to put a stop to II.
The council is TO report progress. at least,
at the next meeting of the association.
While jury tampering was the chief
theme Of the evening the association took
important action in another matter which
was TO vote that the Omaha Bar associa-
ton indorse the movement to have the Of
ficers of the State Bar association poll
the lawyers Of Nebraska as to their three
preferred candidates for the supreme bench,
all OF whom will go on the ballot without
party nomination or designation. The mo-
ton to endorse this was made and ex-
pounded by F. A. Brogan.
The jury question first came before the
meeting, which was held at the Commercial
club, in a report of a COMMITTEES of the ex-
ecutive council which had interviewed the
county commissioner with regard to the
placing of names on the list from which
jurors are drawn.
+. L. Weaver read the report OF the COM
mittee. which favored the making UP Of the
list by the board as a whole and not by
Members individually. Weaver also re-
ported with regard to warrant buying in
the court house and said that the practice
afforded easy opportunity for fury tam
pering under the guise of other business.
He added that since the report had been
drawn the county commissioners had placed
a ban on the practice.
" IN
present the history OF the attempts to
bride jurors in the suit of Bosen against
the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Rail-
way company, which was tried eight times.
Blackburn's remarks and readings in
cluded the three attempts to bribe Jurors
In that long protracted case and told of the
expatriation from Omaha Of Frank A.
Green, claim agent for the street car COM
pany. When he concluded a motion was
put and carried unanimously that his re-
port be put upon the records and that he
be given the tharks of the association.
TIL motion that the executive council
formulate a plan to put a stop to jury
tampering was made by C. j. Smyth and
1t received econds. f. T. Farnsworth
moved that the standing offer Of $500 for
testimony leading to the conviction of any
one for jury bribing. be recalled to public
notice. This was seconded and carried
in like fashion.
F. s. Bronze urged that the Bar assocl-
alton consider a charge in the method Of
jury selection and favored the appoint
ment by the district court Of a jury com
mission. J. C. Kinsler spoke in favor of
the adoption of the Utah system of
majority verdicts, whereby nine or ten
Jurors coinciding may establish a verdict.

Strike Given
Ugly Aspect by
Race Issue
White Firemen on Georgia Railroad
GO Out to Force Discharge of
Negroes-Two Small Riots.

AUGUSTA, Ga, May 23,-The race issue
late tonight suddenly gave an extremely
ugly aspect to the strike of less than a
hundred white firemen on the Georgia
railroad, who went out in an attempt TO
force the railroad to discharge its negro
firemen.
Blood flowed at Athens and a small mob
gathered here, the former disturbance be-
ing over a white fireman and the latter
over a negro fireman.
The engineers were called out shortly
after midnight. when word was received
that trains had been stoned at Lithonia
and at Conyers, Ca, today and that the
engineers had been struck by rocks in
tended for the firemen. The order calling
out the engineers was temporary and was
issued by Assistant Grand Chief Burgess
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, who is in Atlanta. He intimated
that II adequate protection should be ar,
forded for the engineers the order for
them not to take oct their trains might be
revoked. Meanwhile passenger train num-
Der 4 for Augusta. with nearly every
coach full, stood in the train shed al
Atlanta, with its time for pulling out
past due, and no engineer TO be found tc
handle the throttle.
Governor Smith was In conference about
midnight with Sheriff Clark here, who as.
sured the governor that the negro who
had been threatened was safe and thai
things were quiet for the night.
The governor believes that careful hand,
ling is necessary to avoid stirring up race
issues.

At its biennial convention held last week
at Davenport, the Iowa Federation of Won
ems Clubs decided to give especial EN-
phasis the coming biennium to a more
beautiful Iowa" This is a most significant
step and its development VIII bear watcn-
ing. Repeatedly, declarations Of clubs, ma
tlonal and state, have concentrated upon
some special line Of work and each time
the result has been a mighty step ahead
the agitation has become general and the
movement popular. The great wave of
agitation for child labor legislation. library
extension. Juvenile courts and compulsory
education that has spread over the country
the last ten or fifteen years is directly
traceable TO the women's clubs and serves
to illustrate what a mighty agency they
are for the education OF public opinion and
public awakening.
The Iowa federation is one Of the largest,
strongest and best organized in the country
and the enlistment Of its several thousand
member in a campaign for identifying the
state is certain of splendid results. Civic
Improvement has for many years been a de-
partment of state club work, but concerted
action along a definite line is something
new.
Nebraska has given especial emphasis to
civic Improvement. This year Mrs. s. c.
Smith of Beatrice. chairman of the state
committee. Is urging the clubs to agitate a
definite cleaning up day in their respective
towns. The establishment of such a day
in each town would soon solve the prob
lem Of unlovely cities and. villages. 1t is a
short step from cleaning up the back yard,
the alley and the vacant lot to planting
trees and making b~oulevards, for the fever
OF civic Improvement is wonderfully con-
tageous once II gets a good start. Ne
braska has a few beauty spots of which II
may we'll be proud. Arbor Lodge, the
Morton estate. at Nebraska CITY, and the
Elm avenue at Beatrice are among these,
Closely allied to the work of beautifylng
is that of guarding public health. In this
too, the club have had a substantial part
Walthill, the home of Mrs. II. L. Keefe,
former president Of the state federation,
has installed Individual drinking cups in its
schools as a precaution against tuberculo-
sis, while many other towns have adopted
precautionary measures.
Nebraska club women will regret to learr
that Mrs. w. z. Page of Syracuse, former
president of the Nebraska Federation and
at present an advisory member of the state
federation's library committee, will leave
soon, with her family, to make her home
at Grand Junction. Colo, Mrs. Page
has resigned from the library committee
and expresses regret newer interests neces-
state breaking the club ties.
