Cases cited BY Deputy Edgerton IN
support of Contention Against
official FIIins Are At
tackled.



LINCOLN, Jan. S.-(special.) )-whst
the word eligible az found in the con-
EtItution OF Nebraska means was the sub
ject OF discussion before Judge Stewart
OF the Lancaster county district court
yesterday between Assistant Attorney
General Edgerton. appearing for the
state, and W. T. Thompson, representing
Lieutenant Governor McKelvie in his ap-
piication for a writ OF mandamus 20
compel Secretary Of state Walt to place
his name on the primary ballot as a
republican candidate for governor.
Mr.. Edgerson cited three decisions, one
OF the supreme court and the others Of
district courts, and aieo a decision Of a
washington court in support Of his claim
that the constitution prohibits any execu-
tive officer Of the state from being
eligible to the office OF governor during
the term for which he was elected. One
was the case OF Governor Boyd, another
OF Mayor Moores OF Omaha and the other
Mcmillan as a county treasurer.
Mr.. Thompson declared neither OF the
cases referred 10 had any bearing on
this case, as the Boyd case was one OF
proper residence and the Mcmillan case
was similar. Inc MooTcb case was rihipiS
one Of moral turpitude alone and there
fore had no bearing on this case. In the
Washington case Mr.. Thompson citc'
seven decisions from seven different
states to Offset the washington decision.
The states were Indiana. Kentucky, Iowa
Missouri. Oklahoma, Kansas ana Idaho
all Of these covering the eligibility Of q
candidate and all being decided In favor
OF the candidate.
Judge Stewart announced at the close
that he would take some time to look the
matter over.

KEEPING FAITH.

The repeal of the tolls exemption
places an additional burden upon our
water borne traffic; it enables the rail
roads to maintain higher rates than
they would have been able TO maintain
under free tolls. 1t is surrender to
the railroads and big business La
Follette's Weekly.
The repeal Of the tolls exemption
simply corrects piece Of very bad leg
islation which conferred II special priv
ilege regardless of plighted faith to the
contrary. Tolls exemption was subsidy
pure and simple; and subsidies should
no more be granted to carriers by water
than to carriers by rail. It's repeal is
thoroughly in line with the time hon
ored Democratic principle Of equal
rights for all before the law. In max
ing the tolls repeal bill Il law President
Wilson and the congress did right.
Historians will 80 record it when they
write up this people. II Senator La
Toilette has carefully read history he
should know that the Democratic poll.

ways been right.

These are fair questions which merit
fair answers.
The World decidedly thinks that the
Democrats House "has justified the
confidence of those of us much hope"
This Congress has revised the abuses
ont Of an extortionate tariff. 1t has
imposed an income tax which lifts part
Of the burden Of taxation from poverty
to wealth. 1t has enacted Banking
and Currency law for which the
American people have been striving for
nearly twenty years. Whatever differ
ences of opinion there may be about
the administrative details of this meas
ure, all financial authorities agree that
another panic like those OF 1873, 1893
and 1907.
In addition, this Congress has de-
stroyed the lobby, In the case of the
Panama Tolls bill it has not only
wiped out peculiarly hypocritical
subsidy but it has reasserted the good
faith Of the nation in respect to treaty
obligations. In the matter of Mexico
it has scrupulously avoided all sembl
ance of jingosm and demaRoRy. TAX
ing it's work MS whole. the Congress
that is still in session has achieved the
most important record of constructive
legislation of any Congress- in fifty
years.
The world would not advise II man
who believes in Payne Aldrich tariff
to vote for another Democratic Con
gress. 1t would not advise man who
believes in government by Wall street
and special privilege to vote for such a
who believes in secret Hobbies and in
treaty breaking and in hidden subsidies
to vote for such Congress, 1t would
not advise II man who expects an inn
mediate millennium to vote for such Il

generation has earned vote of conf
dence at the polls, it is this Sixty THIRD
Congress now in session in Washington
In expressing this opinion The Worlt
