G. Savage. of Adair who is in line
for election as grand chancellor to sue
coed l.. A. Waweke, of Cherokee There
is no opposition to Senator Savage and
the only contest of the grand lodge
now in session here will be that over
the office of vice grand chancellor
Mr.. kinball is conspicuously men
toned for the honor and it is be-
leved he will win without serious OPP
position. The position is stepping
stone to grand chancellorshfp.
Indications are that the present ses-
sion will be the most peaceful grand
lodge meeting Of recent years
We expect 1t to be regular love

has always been paraded in the news

that this session of the grand lodge

ATTORNEY GENERAL
ISSUES OPINION ON
FRACTIONAL FARES
Railroads Directed Now To Set
Prices Where Parts OF Mile
Are Involved.

Lincoln. Neb. Sept. 4.-Answerins
an inquiry Of the state railway COM
mission, Attorney General Martin holds
that railroad companies cannot charge
2 cents for part OF mile. The
law being that the rate OF fare charged
shall be cents mile. the proper way
to compute the fare when fraction
of a mile Is involved Is to multiply the
number Of miles and fraction thereof
by cents, no account to be taken of q
fraction of a cent when the same is
less than half cent II the fraction
equals or exceeds half cent, then It
should be figured as l cent
The question came up over a dispute
with company in which the latter
held that the rule was inequftable be-
cause 80 cents was all It could collect
whether the distance was 19 3-lOth
miles or 10 Cloths miles. 1t commended
for the privilege of charging for 20
miles in either case but the attorney
general says that it cannot do so.
