THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: IMONDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 180 ON ELLER AND IS REFORMS Why & Ohange is Needed in the Office of Qoanty Judge. ALL COSTS INCREASED OUTRAGEOUSLY Eatates Absorbed in the Process of Settling by the Probate Court—Facts Taken from the Records Furn Interesting Reading. Owmamna, Neb,, 1 2.~To the Voters of Douglas Count, The manifesto of J. W, ller upon the county judge question is early as long s his cost bills in the settle- ment of estates, and fairly represents his business mothods in its The greater portion of it is irrelevant and imma- terial, but as a whole it is a fair sample of his way of doingoverything. It begins with a certificate of character by Charles Unict, who vouches for his age, the number of his children, cte., (all of which is irrelevant), and ends with a challenge to Mr. Bi {mect him openly upon o platform which he supposes. Tt is duo to the voters of Douglas county that they should know just where each of the candidates for the office stands, and with thatin view wo propose to answer Mr | Eller's statements as briefly as possible and let the people know just what the candidacy | of his opponent stands for. Irving F, Baxter does not stand upon the platform supposed by Mr. Ellor, and is not fnclined to go to his opponent for the prin- ciples upon which he stands for the office. | His platform, as stated by him at the bar ! meeting. is: ‘1 hat the officcof county judge | should be administered honestly, econom- ! feally and according to the law."’ ‘and upon that 1ssue he is dy to meet Judge Eller av the polls. 'All citizens and property owners who are compelled to go jnto the county court, and ?"Widows. and orphas in- settlement of estates, desire that_justice will bo meted ‘out to ceording 1o law, and that their little estates will not be absorbed in the payment of thecosts of settling them, and they shouid therefore know which of the candi- dates to support for the oflice. Tired of Excessive Tarifls. Judge Eller in his manifesto denounces the members of the bar of Douglas county for presuming to recommend Mr. Baxter for nomindtion as his successor in that oftice, The action of the bar was not taken without reason. After two years of Judge Eiler's administration, the bar, almost toa_a man, demanded a_change n_the oftice, without pevsonal feelings nst Judge Eller, being only solicitous for the interests of clients, knowing full well that from 50 t0 200 per cent had been adacd to the cost of settling estates and that this increase in cost is in direct violation of the law, v Arping up stenographer’s fees from $§2 0 §5 in each te. Charging 2 cents each for calendar en- harging 50 cents each for judgment dis- allowing ¢ also an additional f from 20 cents to 30 cents each ch judgments, all in divect Vi i e chapter of the statutes of Nebraska governing fecs n probate mat- ters, It will be scen from a perusal of the above statute that the county judge has no author- ity to charge anything for calendar entries; that the fee for filing and approving or re- jecting a claim agamst an estate und enter- ing the same on_ the claim register is 10 cents only, and that the charge of 50 cents for entering a judgment upon the same, and 20 or 80 cents for recording the judgment, are wholly unauthorized. In one estate in particular that the commitige examined over 100 claims were filed and aither allowed or disallowed, and the charges for judgments upon those claims amount to $51. dollars are charged for recording judgments. Four dollars are charged for calendar en- tries made in the same case. This estate was an unusually large one, and a great number of ciaims were filed, but it illustrates the extent to which an estate may suffer under the present administraticn. ose Money Consuming Notices. One of Judge Eller's most flagrant abuses is in the publication of lezal notices. Like everything elso that he does, they are drawn out to an unreasonable length, and the estates have to v for publishing them. ‘We will give Judge Eller the benefit of the doubt in this case and attribute the length of his notices to his utter inability to be concise in any thing, rather than to any de- sire to contribute to the support of some fayorite newspaper. In the matter of the estate ot Lena Schepp, found in Fee Book V. folio 99, is a sample of thesee es. The pub- cations alone in that estate amount to 385,25, and the estate is not yet settled. ‘The facts in this estate are that Lena Schepp died about August, 1892, leaving an estate consisting of & in the bank. Her brother went to Judge Eller as probate judge to find out how to get the money from the bank, whereupon Louis Bochme was ap- pointed administrator at a cost to this little estate of §M4,70, Judge Eller states that his method costs the estate but little more, 1 Comparisons Ars Odlous, Owing to the limited time the committee has in which to answer his manifesto we have been unable to find many estates that have been commenced and fully settled during his adminstration, but we herewith give o statement of the costs in six cases under Eller and six cas under Shields, which fairly represent the differencoe in the «costs under the two administrations: CASES COMMENCED AND SETTLED BHIELDS' TERM, lic DURING John P Gluck Rosn MetCuflrey.

LA, Walke A.J. Harmon From the above it will beseen that th¥ fees of the judge under Eiler's administra- tion are considerably more than double the amount under Shields' administration, Eller's Everlasting Prolixity, One of the causes of this great increase in cosls may be found by referring to Judge Eller's pamphlet where he gives a form of decree of final settlement This decree takes up about four and & half pages and is full of verbiage and repetition and a recital of facts that the record should show, and we do not velieve that there is a lawyer at the bar of Douglas county who has had one year's ex- perience who could not draw a decree cove ng the same matter and state it fully, ac- curately und clearly within one-third of the pace. Untold Thousands Unaccounted For, On the third page of the pamphlet he bo; “that he has done twice as much busi- ness in one aud three-fourths y as any redecessor did in two years; that he has rought to a final settlement more than five times as many estates in the first nine moanths of tlesecond year of his term than [ dge has done in a corresponding ; that in the first pine mouths of his second year ho has hundled ten limes the yolume of business in estates than any redecessor did in a corresponding time." f he hbas done ten times, or five times, or even two times the asmount of business done by his nndfonorl inthe same length of time, and ‘doing that business has charged a higher rate of fees, as has been shown, heshould bave from two to ten Lumes as much money recelved as fees for doing the business, and M 80, where is it?

Section 43, chapter xxviii. of the S| of Nebraska, being the chapter on fees, re- quires that the county judge shll make an itemized report of all receipts of his office of every nature on the first Tuesday of Jun- uary, April, July and October of each year, aud the above figures are taken from those reports. This is a matter that should be of practi- cal interest to every voter in the county, and calls for condemnation, if not investiga- tion, An Unfortunate Comparison. Judge Eller s further that he has put the first claim register in the county cour! and also the first probate calend record, entry bool, estate book and fee book. The statute further provides what records shall be kapt in each of these books. An examing any one who is competent 1o exi books, and who will not be misied by Julge Eller or his assistants in the exa will show th: 1lof these books have always been kept since the or court.

Paid nn Old Claln by an Exorbitant Fee for Advice. I C. Bachelor’s peculiar abilities as a financier were illustrated in a suit in Justice Long's court yesterday morning. The suit is brought by Bachelor to collect a bill of $30 alleged to be due for professional services. The defendant is B. Danovich, who is the proprietor of a small feed store on Thir- teenth streot between Jackson and Howard streets. Danovich is also the owner of a team and moving van, and it was through these that he first made the acquaintance of the would- be councilman, The result is that he is the possess e and uncollectable bill and a Danovich testified that his first acquaintance with Bachelor wus when the latter hired him to move a lot of household goods, the bill for which amounted to #10. Subsequently Bachelor engaged him umerous other jobs of teaming, and ably assured him that if he would call at his oftice the bills would be promptly liquidated. Danovich called repeatedly, but always found his debtor in an insolvent con- dition. Sometimes Bachelor would pay him 50 cents, but more often pleaded thut he did not have a cent. In the meantime Bachelor had been re- tained by Danovich to try a law suiv for him in Justice Edgerton’s court. The lawyer started to try the case, but became incensed at some decision of the court and refused to continue the case. So matters run along until last week, when Bachelor brought the suit for his attorney’s fi Danovi filed nis counter claim for $11, und the court has the conflicting accounts under cousideration. SECOND WARD REPUBLICANS. Goorgo Munro Dellvers a Fearless and Elo- quent Address at Kessler's Hall, The Second Ward Republican club meet- ing at Kessler's hall Saturday night was ad- dressed by George Munro, independent-r publican candidate for the city council, Mr, Munro called attention to the fact that the electric lights cost the inhabitants of the all, He had fought some of the corpor tions because they proved to be rap: The speaker also called attention to what he called the “notorious gurbage contract, which was railroaded through the council. He spoke of the Sixteenth street via- duct ordinance and hoped to see his original ideas, as embodied in that document, fully realized, His stand as re. gards city contracts was also clearly and fearlessly detined, Grading and other work, the speaker contended, ought to be done di- rect by the city employing workment with- out giving a contractor a chance to earn from 10 to 25 per cent of the cost, An explanation of the increased levy in taxes was made in o wanner evidently satisfactory to his hearers. Mr, Munro closed his remarks after re- peated appliuse by the audience, . C. O'Hollaren, candidate for justice of the peace, and Attorney Van Dusen of South Omaha also spoke, and created a favorable imyression. WORKED IN 1HE DARK, Such men Henry Ehrenpfort and His Brigade Dodgers on the Sidewalks. Henry Ehrenpfort, the notorious, assisted by & corpsof equally disreputable assist- unts, had a job on hand last night. This professional spy, tool and stool-pigeon of the corporations, whose sign reads, *Political dirty work taken in here,” was out, evi- dently at the behest of the local franchised monopolies, pasting on the sidewalks all over the city conspicuously letlered printed slips bearing this nscription, *“Turn Mayor Rosewater Down.” It was simply a continuance of the scheme that was concocted some time ago to injure Bemis by workiug on the prefudices of Mr. Rosewater's political enemies, because of the fact that Bemis has the support of Tue Bee. Ehrenpfort and his cowardly erew did not stars out on their mission until after dark, Paste laboring men, of the ticket they di datcs. When thay name there was some objection, Several members were inclined to question Ike's sin- cerity in his professed friendship for the laboring men und his advocacy of the canal schemo did not strike some of the: property holders as being the. best thing that could happen to them. They are inclined to the belief that they are heavily enough taxed now. While it was decided to support Has- call in a general way, some of the members openly avowed their intention to vote for one of the other candidates for mayor be- causo they have no coufidence in the prom- ises made by Hascall. When they reached the name of Ernest Stuht there was a decided objection to this candidate for councilman-at-large, and he will receive a very few of the Knights of Labor votes, owing to his past political rocord.
