COURTS CAN PROTECT THE PEOPLE, The Producers Have the Right to Cs bine to Prevent Extortion on Partofthe Stock Yards Companies. the The questions at issue between the Ameri- can live stock commission company and stock exchanges at Omaha and Chicaso are still en- gaging the attention of stock men throughout the west.

D. Correrx, Comn Cravratey, T, March e Commissioner, Dear Sir: Your favor encl synopsis of two opinions r by two of the ci judges of this state ad- versely to the American live stock commis- sion company, and requesting my views of the question’ involved, is just r and I hasten to_ comply your request. Although your letter a purely private one, I find the qu tions involved in the litigation are of st great public importance that I feel justified in asking your pernission to ma answer public. It seems from the synopsis of the sions yon enclose me, that the American Li ock Commission company was held to have no standing in a court of equity in the court Chicago and n o suit with the Chicag exchange. The American v 15 a_corporation ory tock crs, with a view to sclling their own stock in the markets through its own agents, at tho least possible expense to themselvi aud with a view of dividing the profits among its patrons—the stock rais rs—and with a direct purpose of avoiding the extor- tion of the Chicazo Stock Yards company and other like corporations. It appears from the decision that the stock raisers and farm- ers of llinois who have formed co-operative associations through which to seil their own stock and grain through their own agents at less expense than heretofore,cannot. be heard Ina court of equity against the Chicago Stocks Yards company, who seck to_exclud them from the market 'becaus court held, “they do not come into the court with clean hands,”” and *because thoy are them- sclyes wrong doers and monopolists,” These opinions rendered against the Amer- fean Live Stock association, organized to cn- able stock raisers to sell théir own stock by their own-agents, aud thus save the great ex- pense heretofore attending _such sales through others, presents questions of no or- dinary importance tostock raiscrs and far- mers in the west. While I cannot, with propriety, discuss the particular decision you encloso o, 1 have no esitancy {n oxpressing my opinion upon the rights of the people upon the greut public questions involved in that kind of litigation, because they reach far boyond mere pr judicial questions, and become ques public aud private right,vital to the in of the great producing elasses of our citi 1 confess my inability to understand w! stock raisersand farmers of Illinois and the agricultural regions of the west, may not form any kind of lawful co-operative a tions for the purpose of facilitating and cheapening the sale of their cattle and corn, aud save to themselves the enormous profits realized by the trust monopolies and stock yards corporations. which have robbed the people so long of their rightful profits on their stock and crain, ‘The rights of every man, or set of men, to sell their own produce by themselves 'or agents, in any market in the world without the intervention of commission or third per- son, it seems to me is self-eviaent,and it must be equally true, that it 1s the duty of the state and_ the courts to protect the citizens in that right. The refusal to protect these men in their plain and undeniable rights on the retext that thev are monopolists, is in my - Judgment, a manifest error, neither consistent Wwith reason, justice or public policy Too long already have the stock raisers and producers submitted to robbery and plunder without relief from the extraordinary extor- tions aud unjust tributo levied against them by the greedy horde who stand betweon them and the consumer. If there is no law o protect the people against these cormor- ants, then it is time there should be one framed. But the people are not without law nor_adequate remedy in the courts to protect them 1 their lawful right to sl their own stock and grain through their own agency nd upon such terms as thoy may dotermine, that thoy themselves may shurd the profits. The people found a way through the courts to put o stop to railrond extortion and the road is cqually plain and clear for them to be protected against all forms of monopolies and trust combinations which seek to fatten themselves upon the labor and hard earnings of the common people of this country. The great reforms now demanded and pressed by the producing and laboring clnsses of the people uguinst all manner of extortion and oppression, which deprives labor of its Just reward, have now and always have had my carnest sympathy and support, and so far ms it has been in my power, as o judgo or private citizen, to promote and protect the common people against extortion and injus- tice T have done so, and shall coutinue to do 0, 50 long as I shall have any power or voice to make myself felt in that divection. Nor, on the contrary, would I acprive the rich of a penny of their honest money, nor deny thom a singlo vight conferred by inw. And o, answering your question, I believe there is ample and full power in the courts to protect tho people and the American live stock company in their Tight to sell their stock and grain in the markets without hindrance from others, and in that richt they should bo heard and’ protected, if need bo, by tho courts by any appropriate remed: Very respectfully yours, B of sioner. 4.

About 6:30 o'clock lasu evening Officer Kees discovered smoke issuing from the top story of the Max Mayer building, corner of Eleventh and Farnar, The fire was in" the front room of the Omaha Photograph and Engraving company. Ladders were quickly hoisted, the windows broken in, and two streams of water soon iad the blaze extinguished and. tho building flooded: 'ho loss to the engraving company will not be heavy, Probably S. Jonasen, a joweler who occupied the ground floor will be the greatest loser. The water poured down through the floors, doing considerable damage to the stock of musical instruments aud jowelry, ‘Tho stock in the storo is worth probably ,000, and the loss will not be over #2,000. If there had been a salvage corps it could probably have saved 1,000 of ithe loss by covering up the pianos, clocks, ete. It is understood that there is some insur- ance on the stock, but just_how much could not be ascertained, as Mr. Jonasen could not be found. The Omaha chemical works occupying the basement for storing some chemicals suffered some loss by water. Three hundred dollars will cover the loss of the engraving company. The building is fully nsured and the loss will be about §250. This is rather an ill fated building as sev- eral disastrous fires have occurred there.

Both Are to be Secured Nightly in the Grand Opera Hou Dr, Davis, one of the leading scientists of the country, is entertaining people in a most interesting and innocent munuer at the irand opera house. The entertainment opens with an instructive discourse upon hypnotism, and is followed with interesting illustrations as to the effect it has upon mortals suscoptible to it. Tue professor calls for volunteers who may desive to be hypnotized. Generally, a large number responds, but all of them ure not considered good subject sufticient number, however, is alway: tained for the purpose. Once under the pro- fessor's power, the subjects do anything he tells them and believe everything he tells them. A slight suggestion leads them to be- lieve that, at various times, thoy are catch- ing dollars which are raiting” through the air; that they aro pitted agaiust John L. Sullivan or some other fistic hero; that they are fishing upon the banks of somo beautiful stream: that their hands are covered with soot and that half a dozen nandkerchiefs are necessary to clean them; that they are freezing cold or roasting hot, or that they are President Harrison, Emperor William, Francis Murphy or some other colobrity. “These acts occasion a number of ludicrous episodes, which are enjoyed as greatly as would be play.

Lying at the foot of Pike's Peak and at the entrauce of the Garden of the Gods, it invites the tourist and signt seer to the most remarkable formations and the grandest and most picturesquo scenery of that rugged range, Its mincral springs and pure air give new life to the do- bilitated. The Pike's Peak railroad, a murvel of engineering skill, conveys passen- gers to the very summit ‘of the lofty old mountain, From the top of ‘Pike's Pe: the great mountain peaks of Colorado are distinetly visibie, while to the cast its tree- linec ight angles, looking like o checker board in the distance, lies tho pretty Jittle city of Colcrado Springs and beyond the great plains of eastern Colorado.

TO BE EARLY, INSURES EXCELLENT SELECTION. Nebraska Clothing Co., Corner Fourteenth and Douglas Strects. Governor Boyd Anxio the People Regarding It. Governor Boyd returned from Li aturday night and was called on afternoon by a Ber man at the residenco of s son-in-law, Mr. E. L. Bierbowers, on Thirty-second avenue, Ho was asked if he had yet decided to call a special se ssion of the legislature for the purpose of ap portioning the state into repre- sentative and senatorial districts, Ho said that ho had not. The question re- garding a special session was whether the people of Douglas county would be content with a joiut ballot of twelve votes where they were entitled to cighteen or nineteen when a senator was to be elected. w Lan vere to Hear from true in a different ratio, however, with ter and other counties, which entitled to greater representation han they now enjoyed. There were ymo counties which were _satistied with the present apportionment, because a new distribution would not afford them any advantage. I'hus far he had not heard much from the people, although he had reccived several letters from parties throughout the state. Ho supposed before long the people would begin to talk about it and the papers also would discuss it. Ho had read what Tur: Bee had said on the subject, and ap- preciated the view which held that it wasin- cumbent upon him to call a special sessio because of the failure of the lust legislature to pass an apportionment bill. He had no doubt that the supremo court would hold, be- cause of the failure of the legislaturo as specificd at tho last session, which ~ was the first regular one after the enumeration, that a_special session of the same members and before the expira- tion of their term ot oftice, would be legal, He was asked what method he pronosed to employ and what means he would suggest to ascertain how the people felt upon the sub- ject. Hosaid that he thought it was a mat- ter for the papers to discnss and that Tie Ber might be able to get some opinions on tho subject The governor said that the impression had gone abroad that he had declared he would call a special session, But he said ho had made 1o such promise or statement. Ho had been in the house of representatis the vight the apportionment bill had been kille and when ho heard of it said that he gretted it, because he thought it might ue- cessitate ‘the calling of a special session. T'his expression led to the alleged positive statement that he would call a scssion. He regretted the fulure ot the logislature in this respect, but if it entailed expenses upon the people,” the independents could blame only themselves, ‘The governor was asked bow the supreme court could pass upon the legality of the sp cial session and veplied that before calling the representatives and senators together again lie would submit the matter to the court for its opinion. 1f the apportionment could not be made by the present legislature, it could mot be done by the next one, and then the matter would have to bo deferred until after the next enumeration by the state, and in the meantime a United States senator would have been elected. The governor was asked if the report which has been in ¢ ton for so days past were true, namel Johnson of Fairmont, in thi appoiuted to succeed the present incumbont us superintendent of the asylum for the in- curable insane at Hastings, s excellency said that the report was un- founded.
