CHARGES FILED AGAINST
NEMAHA COUNTY ATTORNEY
(From a Staff Correspondent

(From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN, Neb., oct 6.-tSpecial.)-A
complaint has been filed with Governor
Aldrich asking that County Attorney
Fred G. Hawxby of Nemaha county be
removed for failure to enforce a law and
perform a duty enjoined upon him by
that law. The complaint is filed by Henry
Morgernstren, who alleges that the
county official failed to prosecute Will
liam Seaman, who was indicted by a
grand jury in May. 1907. for burning a
laundry building in the city of Auburn.
Hawxby came into his present office in
January. 1910, but the Mergernstren COM
plant alleges that Seaman has been
around the city for the last sixty days
and that the official has made no effort
to start proceedings against him.
1t Is probable, according to word given
out at the state house, that a hearing
will be held in the matter before the
governor. Hawxby's friends contend that
the complaint, which is filed under the
provisions OF the Sackett law, cannot
materialize, as the law creating the Of
flee OF county attorney. clearly sets out
that he is charged with not pushing COM
plants when he does not regard the evil
dence sufficient TO convict. The clothing
of the county attorney in this event with
discretionary power, believe Hawxby's
friends, precludes the possibility OF his
prosecution for the violation of the Sack
EFT law.

LINCOLN. Neb., Oct. 6.-(Special)-
Announcing his candidacy at the eleventh
hour, Richard Guthrie of Lincoln de-
feated Searle Holmes OF Omaha for the
presidency OF the senior class at the
state university by a vote of 80 to n
Thursday.
The candidacy OF Guthrie was kept
secret until the morning of the election,
It being presumed that Holmes would be
the unanimous choice OF the class. On
Thursday morning 1t was found that
Guthrie had the solid support of the
engineering and forestry departments.
while Holmes relied solely on the aca-
demic students for support. The engineers
and foresters turned out for the election
en- masse and had little difficulty in plac-
ing their candidate in the chair.
Guthrie is a barb" but has been pTomi-
nent in the military department and is
one of the best known men in the senior
class. His opponent is a member of the
Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. Both are
S5hembers of the Innocents. The meeting

State Land Board
Served With Papers
in Van Ness Suit
tFrom a STAFF Correspondent

From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. Neb.. Oct. e.-(speciaD-
The members of the state Board Of
Public Lands and Buildings have been
served with papers in the injunction suit
started against them by c. c. Van
Ness OF Grand Island, who seeks to pre-
vent the state officials from discharging
him from the soldiers home at that
place. A summons was brought to the
office OF Governor Aldrich but due TO
the fact that he is out Of the state ser
vice was not had upon him.
Much interest Is being shown in the
form Of notice served upon the state
officers. they supposing that Commandant
Hoyt was the real defendant. A copy
of the notice served upon the head of
that institution would denote this fact,
but on the papers served here today.
Hoyt is merely implicated with the state
officials. Further the papers show that
when Van Ness asked for an injunction
this was granted to him temporarily by
County Judge Mullin in the absence OF
the district judges This means accord
ing to the state officials that IL Van
Ness loses in the lower court he will
be allowed to supersede the judgment OF
that court and can remain a member
of the home until the matter is taken
on appeal to the state supreme court
Several OF the members of the board
are In favor of making a strong resist
ance to the suit. Governor Aldrich
when the matter was first brought TO his
attention several days ago. asserted that
Van Ness when discharged from the
home after remaining there, became a
trespasser on state property and that
the only recourse he then had would be
to get court order reinstating him to
membership in the institution.
Van Ness has been regarded as dis
turber at the home and violator of
the rules and regulations which govern
members of the institution. He was
one who attempted to enjoin the state
officers and commandant from retain
ing any part OF the pension of MEM
bers OF the home. He took part in the
Joe McGraw uprising against Com
mandant Eli Barnes and he now starts
a suit against the present command
ant. Governor Aldrich regards the in
junction as an unwarranted interior
ence in the discretionary power OF the
commandant and the state officers who
admit and discharge members of the
home in accordance with regulations
which they are by law empowered to
make.

the election was that 2Ss votes were cast
for the bonds and 1923 against. Taxes
have been increased in this city about Is
per cent and the strike on the railroad
no doubt caused the people to care less
about making such an expenditure. The
main reason for wanting the city hall
was to provide a place for the fire de-
partment instead of the temporary places
which are now located in each ward.

APPLIES IN THIS STATE

A decision of particular interest Arizona just now was handed down by the United States supreme court the other day It was the case oi the removal of the capital of the state of Oklahoma from Guthrie to Okla homa City. brought before the su' preme tribunal on appeal.
 It will be recalled that the enabling act admitting Oklahoma territory in to the union of states contained the provision that the capital of the new state should remain at Guthrie until a certain time, and the provision was incorporated in the organic law oi the new state.
 Action Constitutional
 The capital was moved. however to Oklahoma City. The decision oi the United States supreme court is that the removal of the seat of state government was constitutional and as far as the supreme court is con cerned the capital will remain at Oklahoma City.
 The enabling act of congress for the admission of Arizona 10 the union as a state also contains the provision fixing the seat of state government, giving the capital to lhoenix until 1925. As there is talk of mekiue Tucson the capital of Arizona when 1t is admitted into the union. the sur preme courts decision of the Okla bona case may prove a very valu- able precedent.
