Petition First Move
Against Omaha School
Adams County Taxpayer Seeks to Pre-
vent Issuing Warrants from Funds
Provided by Grossman Law.
(From staff Correspondent)

LINCOLN, Aug. 26.-(Special Telegram >
The filing of a petition by Samuel j..
Stewart against State Auditor Barton in
the district court here today Is the initial
move against the Grossman Omaha Medi-
cal college law enacted at the last session
The petition sets out that the plaintiff
is an Adams county taxpayer and that he
seeks to prevent issuing warrants from the
funds provided by the Grossman law on
the ground that the enactment is uncon-
stitutlonal. The fact that the branches Of
medicine being practiced in this state are
allopathic. eclectic and homeopathic is set
out with the assertion that the last named
two branches are favored by about 90 per
cent of the people of the state.
That the omaha school only contemplates
teaching the ailopathio branch proves the
law is special privilege legislation, the
plaintiff alleges. Further the petition re-
cites that none of the several acts in con-
tradiction OF the Grossman law was re-
pealed by 1t either specifically or by i'm
plication.

 The men could have rendered yer dict of not guilty from the box. had they felt so inclined for there appeared to be little or no evidence of gambling against them.
 The verdict appeared to be a popular one in this particular case, for the citizens as a whole are strictly against gambling. and would not tolerate a wide open town in which games of chance were run openly for the pur- pose of fleecing the miners of their summer wages.

The state board of control has sent
a formal notice to the officials of the
county directing that for the present
patients from this county who are com
mitted to the home for the feeble
minded at Chippewa Falls be sent to
the Racine County Asylum. The home
at Chippewa Falls is now over crowded
to such an extent that it will be i'm
possible to receive any more patients.
The. work Of building an addition to
the home is now well under way and
it is thought that the new quarters
will be ready by the first of January.
At that time the board of control will
issue formal order transferring
patients from the county asylum to
the Chippewa Falls institution. Ke-

in the home at this time and three
have been committed to it within the
past few months All three have been

until the sewer is put in according

Postmaster Baker Gives I'm.
portant Rules for Sending
Christmas Parcels.
OFFICE SEEKS TO LIMIT DELAY
Grand Rush at the Postofice has AL
ready Begun and Local Handlers of
the Mail are Anxious to Give Keno
sha People Best Possible Service.

"PlSase tell the people of Kenosha
that the best way 10 insure the proper
delivery of Christmas presents through
the postoffice with the least possible
delay and in the best possible eondi-
ton is to mail them early This is
the first of a series Of rules issued to-
day by Postmaster Robert Verne Bak-
er and he is hopeful that the observ-
ance of the rules will not only aid
materially in keeping the postof1ice
employees from being worn out, but
that they may also aid the people in
having their Christmas parcels deliver
ed in time.
Christmas time, for the postal de-
partment, is the heaviest season of the
year." said Mr.. Baker, "and even
with the extra help which is secured
at this time, it is only by the assist
ance which the public can render,
through their care in preparing and
sending mail matter, that satisfaction
can result.
"The following information will be
of interest to every one who contem-
plates sending Christmas card or gift
through the mail and strict adherence
to the regulations cannot but work
wonders in saving delay and annoy
ance, due to the loss or miscarriage
of parcels.
In general, mail matter is divided
into four classes: First class is any
package or envelope going out under
seal, and the rate for same is cents
per ounce or fraction thereof.
"The rate charged for second class
matter, is l cent for each four ounces
or fraction thereof. This is termed
"transient and includes newspapers
and periodicals.
"Printed matter of all kinds, such
as circulars and advertising matter in
