County
Board Refuses to
Recognize Purdy

MADISON, Neb.. Jan. 13.-(Special,)-
The new Board OF County Commissioners
organized today. Chairman Purdy Of the
old board was present with his attorney,
Judge McDuffees and claimed recogni-
tion as a holdover. Fitch, who procured
the election certificate by mandamus ac-
ton brought in the district court. was
also present and demanded recognition.
Judge McDuffee in behalf of Purdy con-
tended that IL the board recognized Fitch
1t would be passing on the validity of the
election. the issues of which were already
pending In the supreme court. and there
fore usurping judicial authority contrary
to law. On the other hand. County At
torney Bowling advised the board Il must
recognize Fitch because he was In possess
sion of the certificate OF election. behind
which they had no right to inquire, and
refusing to recognize him It would be
necessary TO institute mandamus pro-
ceedings TO compel such recognition.
After considerable discussion Fitch was
recognized as the duly qualified COM
missioner and Judge McDuffee served no.
tice upon the newly organized board that
such action would not be recognised by
Purdy, and that he would sit with the
board and demand that his name be called
on roll call. 1t Is understood that Purdy 6

BIG STIR CAUSED
BY REEDS ORDER
Payment Of All Fees in Advance to
State Treasurer Will Change
Many Office Systems.
TWO OFFICES ARE HARD HIT
tFrom a staff Correspondent

=
LINCOLN. Neb., Jan. 1S-Cspecial.)--
The ruling of Attorney General Reed
that state officers may not receive fees
direct. but only in the shape of a receipt
from the treasurer's office. will cause
much confusion for a while at the state
house,
The offices Of the secretary of state
and of the superintendent OF education
will be particularly hard hit. the former
because of the bulk OF the fees received,
and the latter because of the red tape
that will necessarily be created in the
matter of the teachers examination
fees, which are small and very numerous
and designated by number only.
Treasurer Must Work Hard.
Extra work in a very large amount
will be heaped upon the new treasurer
as each item must go all the way through
his books. whereas at the present he re-
ceives the fees in lump from the vari-
Gus departments at intervals. The
treasurer will probably ask for an In
creased appropriation to pay for extra
help.
Superintendent Thomas is anxious to
hew closely to the letter Of the law but
sees some trouble ahead in connection
with the 5o-cent examination fees of the
teachers. over 10000 in number The ex-
aninations at present are taken by num-
Der only, the teachers name not appear

Will Change System,
Under the new scheme it would be al D..
most impossible to pursue the number
scheme. Each one of the numerous
teachers would be compelled to send her
80 cents into the state treasurer. procure
receipt and turn the same over to the
county superintendent under whom she
took the examination.

ONE CENT LETTER POSTAGE

One cent postage rate on letters is
again being brought into prominence and
many high officials declare that it is sure
to come in the near future. All classes
of business would be greatly benefited
by it's adoption, and estimated statistics
show there would be such an increased

1t is an impossibility to place an esti-

are now in a badly rundown condition,
with poor appetite, impaired digestion
