some Political History.

The majority opinion OF the supreme
court In the custer case against Chief OF
Police Donahue Of Omaha recalls some
politics played In the governors office
during the incumbency Of A. c. shallen-
berger. When complaint was made to
him Of conditions in Omaha he feared
the political effect Of a refusal to act,
The then attorney general. Thompson,
advised him that the action should be
brought against the mayor as well as the
chief Of police. as the law made that
official the medium OF its enforcement.
Shallenberger, however. feared the politl-
cal effect Of starting an action against
his opponent for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation. Mayor Dahman OF Omaha. and
consequently II was brought solely
against the chief, The opinion Of the
court sustains the position taken by the
attorney general at the time.
