FEB. lST
DECISIONS OF SUPREME COURT IN
TIMBER TAX CASE NEcEssl-
TATEs BEGINNING OVER.

Jackson, Miss, Jan. 1S.-Litigants
who attacked the constitutionality Of
the special timber tract and turpen-
tine tax statutes in the Kinds county
chancery court will renew their suits
on the LIST of February when the coun-
ty tax collectors and fiscal officers of
the state will be required to attempt
a collection by law of the tax claims.
The decision of the Supreme Court
yesterday holding that the chancery
court had no jurisdiction to hear the
proceedings until actual legal steps
had been taken to enforce payment of
the taxes was not surprise. In fact,
In rendering his decision which was
the basis of the Supreme Court appeal,
Chancellor G. G.. Lyell expressed grave
doubts as to his jurisdiction but, in
view of the Importance of the question,
and the extensive interests involved,
he decided to resolve the doubts in
favor of the compliments, and let the
case go to the Supreme Court
The latter tribunal, however, would
not waive the technical question of
jurisdiction and go into the case on
its merits, and this delays the final
decision making it necessary for the
attorneys to start all over again.
Chancellor Lyells decision was to
tn effect that both the timber tax of
20 cents per acre on all timber tracts
exceeding 1000 acres in extent, and

OMAHA KNOWN AS THE
GATE CITY OF THE WEST.
Metropolis Struck by Cyclone Has
Many Fine Industries.

Omaha has claimed the sobriquet of
Gate City ever since before 1864, when
the Union Pacific was begun and when
1T was the most northerly Quitting
point for overland wagon trains to the
far west"
1t stands on the west bank of the
Missouri, opposite Council Bluffs, Ia,
492 miles southwest of Chicago on the
Union Pacific and the Missouri Pa
cific, and occupies a site of over twen-
ty-four square miles on an elevation
1,03O feet above sea level and eighty
feet above the river, crossed at this
point by several bridges.
The superior location of the Gate
City has caused it to become the home
of many prosperous industries. and
prosperity has resulted in the estab-
lishment of many educational institu-
lions. buildings attractive for their
architecture Omaha is city of
churches. Among it's industries are
those of packing cattle, hogs and
sheep. Omaha ranks third among
cities of the United States in packing.
There is good deal of silver smelling,
as well as distilling, brewing and man
ufacture OF steam engines.
Important among the buildings are
the courthouse, city hall, public library,
containing 60,000 volumes; the federal
building, Coliseum hall, seating 10000;
Roman Catholic and Protestant Epis-
cOpal cathedrals. hospitals state in
stitution for the deaf and dumb. the
New York Life building and the Office
of the Omaha Bee.
Omaha has city university and is
the seat of Creighton university, the
Academy of the Sacred Heart, Brow
nell hail. st. GATHERINGS academy, the
Presbyterian Theological seminary, the
Omaha Medical college and the Creigh-
ton Medical college. 1t has a magnlfi-
cent high school building.
In maintenance and operation the
city has been spending annually nearly
81, 100000, the principal items Of the
budget being about $375,000 for schools,
$295, 900 for debt interests, $120,000 for
the fire department, $4,000 for the po-
lice department and $4,000 for mn-
nicipal lighting.
Historically the site Of Omaha fig
ures as the place where Lewis and
Clark in 1904 held a council with the
Indians. j. B. Royce in 1925 built a
stockade and trading station there.
The first permanent settlement was
made in 1854. The growth of the city
has greatly increased since the Pacific
railroad was completed. The popula-
ton is 10000, making it Nebraska's
metropolis. The name Omaha was
taken from a tribe of the Dakotas that
inhabited the region.

A HEALTH DECALOGUE.

The proverb that cleanliness is
next to Goodness is often ascribed
to the Bible. 1t does not happen to
belong in the Scriptures but it is
just as true and is directly in line
with Scriptural teachings.
The same thing might be said of
the Ten Commandments published
by the Housing Committee of the
Chicago Woman's Air Association.
They are so worthy of obedience
that they are republished here.
1. Thou shalt honor thy city and
keep it's laws.
2. Remember thy cleaning day
and keep it wholly.
3. Thou shalt love and cherish
thy children and provide for them
decent homes and Fairgrounds.
4. Thou shalt not keep thy win
dows closed day or night.
5. Thou shalt keep in order thy
alley, thy backyard, thy hall and
stairway.
6. Thou shalt not kill thy neigh
bors' bodies with poisonous air, nor
their souls with bad companions.
7. Thou shalt not let the wicked
fly live.
8. Thou shalt not steal thy chill
dren's right to happiness from them.
8. Thou shalt bear witness
against thy neighbor's rubbish heap.
10. Thou shalt covet all the
fresh air and sunlight thou canst
obtain.

whom were Captain G. Burdette,
champion rifle shot of the world,
Adjutant-General c. D. Elliott, Cap
tain S. B. Avis, ]. G. Karney, John

From Honesdale he is going to Pitts
ton, hoping to also organize a camp
at that place. The organization is
now $4,000 strong. Wilkes-Barre

campment, which will be held early
in June. Honesdale will send dele
