Oil Company Asks
Court to Enjon
Food Commission

The L.. V. Nicholas Oil company has
asked the district court to enjoin the
Food, Drug, Dairy and Oil commission
from enforcing a penalty because the
company has refused to pay the monthly
fee of $3.50 assessed against It.
The fee is exorbitnat, the plaintiff al
leges. and since the consolidation of the
various commissions the fees collected
have been piling up in such manner as
to cause large profits.
A portion of report in which the COM
mission rejoiced because an excess OF
$50, 900 had accumulated in fees in two
years is included in the petition.
The outcome of the suit will be awaited
with interest by all firms who pay fees
assessed by the commission since the
object is to reduce the size of the pay
ments.

PUBLIC SHOULD BE
FAIR TO RAILWAYS
DR.. John P. Mum Points Out that
Omaha Would Be Mere Frontier
Post Without Railroads.
AMAZED AT oMAHA's PROGRESS

I'm the future of railroading be-
lieve public opinion and other ele-
ments will be more fair to the rail-
roads than they have been in the
past" declared DR.. John p. Mum,
heavy railroad stakeholder of New
York, at the University club, where
he was the honor guest at luncheon
of local railway officials.
People are just beginning to realize
how very essential the railroads are.
without them, Omaha would still be a
little frontier trading post instead of the
marvelously developed and important city
it is today. 1 am amazed at the progress
shown by this city. and everybody ad-
mits that it could not have occurred
without the railroads
Question of Concern.
Railroads, instead of war, form the
greatest question before the American
public today. Railroad securities COM
prise the majority of the assets Of most
of the great fiduciary institutions, so un-
less the railroads are treated fairly and
prosper, the financial institutions will
experience a serious slump"
DR.. Mum, who was formerly the init
mate friend and private physician of
Jay Gould, Russell Sage and Cornelius
Vanderbilt, is chairman of the railroad
department of the international commit
tee of the Young Mems Christian associa-
ton. The local luncheon was given by
the Omaha association.
Mention was made of the probability
of establishing railroad association in
Omaha, but the project is still matter
to be worked out in the future. with no
immediate developments.

Council Bluffs. April 21-A bequest
from the estate OF the late Mrs. Julia
Rackley Perry. Of Maiden. ILL.,, has just
been received by the Christian Home.
and Is included by Manager Lemen in
this weeks report Of the receipts for
the general fund Of the orphanage. The
bequest was for the sum OF $4,000. but
there was deducted from 1t S209.36 as
the inheritance tax under the Illinois
laws and the net sum received by the
home therefore was 34.790.s4.
The bequest was received from Cairo
A. Trimble. an attorney at Princeton.
ILL.,, who had charge Of the legal work
for the estate. Mrs. Perry was for
many years deeply interested in the
home and its work and during her life
time was frequent and liberal con-
tributor.
Another big deviation credited this
week to the word and way fund of the
home was in the completion OF United
States pledge No. 5S, aggregating ST.
900. This pledge consisted of ten do
nations OF 800 each, payable when all
ten had been promised and just con-
cluded at this time.

Cattle.
liberal supply Of cattle was on
hand and buyers were not disposed
TO take hold.
Present indications are that there
will be plenty Of big steers to go
around for several weeks, and that the
spread will continue narrow as killers
are ravenous for light stuff. This is
a seasonable condition, but the Dig
steer is encountering unusual discrim-
ination at present while killers are not
satisfied even when they have mo-
nopoly of the supply Of light cattle,
bagging their share and also that
which would go to the country under
normal conditions.
Shippers took larger quota OF the
crop on Monday than any day since the
free area division opened. and that is
good omen. Eastern beef men have

the eastern territory is not holding any
considerable volume of fat beef, due TO
guarantees on feeder movement for
four months past, and since 1t is the
latter grades that are getting strongest
