Towns Body. of Which He
Wants Craftsmanship.

Lincoln. Neb.. Jan. ESPECIAL ]
Efforts were made today by mem
hers of the Douglas county delega-
ton to iron out a grow between
Drucsedow of Omaha and Foster of
Omaha over berths in the commit
ted on cities and towns.
Druesedow, who is a member OF
tn committee on committees. is re-
ported to be putting up hot fight
to keep Foster out of the cities and
towns committee. Druesedow wants
to be chairman of this committee
and until he began to knife" Foste-
for appointment as member, 1t
looked as though he would get the
Craftsmanship, which he has held for
two sessions, without trouble.
But Foster seems to have influ-
eucc with members OF the commit

member. Foster claims that his

ha will make him valuable menl-

But Drucsedow, it seems. doesn't
want him, won't have him, and
won't consider his, appointment.
Other members of the Douglas
county delegation with their mouths
watering for certain committee ap-
pontments, look upon this row
projected by Druesedow in the conf
mttee on committees as dangerous
ta their aspirations. Hence, their
efforts today to endeavor to effect
a compromise.

Kirchner, the farmer, had 400 acres
of wheat and ordered a harvesting
machine from the implement dealer.
He claimed that before the harvesting
machine was delivered the grasshop-

responsible. However, Justice Porter.
in his opinion, said, "In our opinion
the damages sought to be recovered

character, and we do not believe that
the destruction of this wheat by raid

sumed to have been contemplated

Pay Despite Girl Settlement.
NJ A. Wilson of Philips county,
convicted on a charge OF attempting
to have improper relations with a IL
year-old girl, today lost his appeal In
the state supreme court when al
opinion was handed down by CHIEF
Justice Johnston, sustaining the YER
dict of the Phillips county district
court.
Wilson was accused,~in a subsequent
suit, of attempting to destroy evidence
by the payment of money to the girl S
father to get him and his family out
of the state and also to obtain writ
ten denial of the accusation.
1t was set out that Wilson prepared
a form letter for the girl TO copy ana
that the father was first offered $3.50
for this letter, which he refused. The
offer was later raised to $1,000. which
was accepted. When payment was
made and the letter delivered, the
girls family left the state.
1t was also shown in the trial, that
500 was offered to Opal Smith,
Topeka girl, if she would testify that
she had heard the wronged girl say
the defendant had never wronged her
In the appeal to the supreme court the
plea was made that this testimony
should not have been admitted, but
this plea was to no avail, and Wilson
will be compelled to pay the penalty
prescribed by the lower court.
Sell Bonds Less Than Par.
Bonds may be sold for less than par
under a decision handed down by the
supreme court today. 1t is held that
where a statute authorizes issuance
of bonds bearing a certain rate OF in
terest and contains no provision as to
the amount they shall bring, the bonds
NAV be sold at a discount, II the sale
is made on the best terms available
The action arose in an injunction suit
brought in Reno county by John Row
land, a taxpayer, to prevent the county
commissioners from selling approx
mately $4,000, 900 in road bonds to an
investment company at discount OF
10 per cent. The decision sets prece-
dent for many other similar transac-
tions Because of the present low
market in bonds it is said to be diff
cut to dispose of the bonds at par.
The Judgment of the lower court in
DENYING an injunction was affirmed.
