REFORMATORY LAW IS VOID Bupreme Court Holds That the Nebraska Btatute is Urconstitutional, FIXES THE AGE AT TOO HIGH A LIMIT Statute Says ¢ Be Commi While th 16 i the LI fldren Under 18 can d for Incorrigibility Conatitation Suys . LINCOLN, Nov. 8.--(Special)—The su- preme court today handed down an import- ant decislon relating 1o the Nebraska reform #chool law which will open the way for the successful prosecution of habeas corpus pro ceedings for the discharge of many of the boys and girls now confined In the state’s industrial schools The decision eclares unconstitutional the legislative act which provides for the commitment of boys and girls under the age of 18 years. The con stitution of the fixes the age limit at 16 years and the court holds that p #ons over that age cannot be committed to efther of the industrial unless convicted of crime under the criminal cq This decision in the ngalnst Flowers, The case was appealed from Lancaster county. In 1596 F. W. Scott filed a com- plalot in the county court, charging that 8 h Jane Flowers, a girl of 16 years, was incorrigible and from lack of proper pa- rental care and control was growing up In idleness and vice. On this complaint she was, after an examination and evidence was taken, by the county court committed 1o the industrial school for girls at Geneva. The heariog was ex parte In character. Afterwards she was released and by next friend, Lucretia Flowers, commenced an action in the dustrict court of this county against Mr. Scott for damages, ting forth two grounds for action, one for false imprisonment and the other for ma- llclous prosecution, the latter being taken from the jury by instructions of the court. The judgment was in her favor on the first cause of action, from which Scott appealed 1o the supreme court. The principal ques- tlon involved was the proper construction to be given section article viii of the con- stitution of the state re schools was case Syllabus the Opinlo Following I the syllabus of the oplnion: Seetlon 12, article vili, of the constitution, fch hat the legislature may vide for the establishment of a pildren under the age of 16 vears, who, for want of parental care or other cause, are growlng p In mendicancy or crime. 18 @ limitation on the power of the legislature und section article xii, chapter Ixxv, of the Compiled Statutes, to the extent that It rescribes un uge greater than that fixed n the constitution for such commitment, is unconstitutional and void A ith who is incorrigible s 3 ‘growing up In ecrime. within the meaning of that term as employed in suid section of the con- stitution and @ statute prescribing for the commitment of incorrigible vouth to the re- form school I8 not for that reason contrary 1o the terms of said sectl A complaint filed in the county court un- der section b, article i, chapter 1xxv, charg- ing no crime, but in incorrigibility ‘merely, Atates no cause for commitment to the in- dustrial or reform school and a person so arrested and committed has a cause of ac- tion against the person filing the same for false imprisonment Joint tort feasors are jointly and severally Mable for their wrongful acts.

Error cannot be successfully upon the admission of testim objection e withdrawal of evidence from the con- mideration of the jury by an instruction cures any error in the admission. Construction of the Cou: After discussing the varlous constructions of the constitutional provision, the court Bays The firat three constructions not being permissible, we are forced to the conclusion that sald section of the constitution was de- sizned and intended as » restriction upon the legialative authority. Then, if it was the purpose of the makers of the constitution, s we 80 conceed It to have been, that not only those that are criminals and have been convicted of crime and are deemed capable of reformation, but also those o far “grow- ing up in crime” as to have been incorrigl- ble, may be committed to such institution, it must be thatithe framers of that instru- ment meant that the limitation of age dur- ing which either of sald classes could re- celve the benefit of such Institutions Is 18 years, and not a greater age. Whether the framers of that section were wise or not in so fixing the age !imit, it is not our province to discuss. It seems clear to the court that the constitution inhibits the leg- islature from providing for the commit- ment to the Industrial schools of children of any class, either of an incorrigible na- ture or criminal in fuct, If beyond the age of 18. For the reason that section 5, article 1. chapter ixxv, of the ( npiled Statutes, prescribes that boy of 18 years muy be rial ‘achool, 1t 1is predicated ny without mmitted to the indus- ontrary to section 12, article vilf, of the constitution, and is vold: Therefore, 'If sald complant was framed and flied under the provisions of sald section § it did not state a cause for commitment and the arrest and commitment of said Flowers in the proceedings had under wich com- plaint were a nullity and constituted false mprisonment, for which said Scott, who preferred the charges therein set forth, would be lable to her in damages. From the proceeding we must not be understood w8 hoiding that a person over the age of 16 years who has been convicted of violating ihe eriminal code may not be committed to {he reform or state industrial schools. The regularity of such commitments {8 not ques- tloned In this proceeding. Bar to Henefitn, In the case of Willam M. Clinton against the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy rallrond the court held that an employee who hed accepted damages for injuries sustained could not recover benefits for such injuries under an agreement releas- ing the reliet department from liability in case of acceptance. One decision that will be of interest to attorneys was rendered in the case of Doug las Cones against George A. Brooks, in which the court held An attorney has a general or retaining len upon all papers, books, documents or money of his c'lent coming into his hands in the course of his professional ment.

A decision in favor of J. Sterling Mor- ton was rendered in the case of Morton against John C. Watson. In this case the court held that the dismissal by the dis- trict court of Otoe county of disbarment proceedings against Watson should be al- lowed to stand, but it overruled the court's action in taxing the costs of the original hearing against Morton. This case has at- tracted much attention among lawyers of Nebraska. The costs ussessed against Mr. Morton amount to over $1,000. Corl Must Pay Salaries.

NORTH BEND, Neb., Nov. 8.—(Speclal.)— Burglars attempted to break into the Bank of North Bend this morning shortly after 12 o'clock, but were frightened away by an electric bell, which went off when they stepped on a mat in front of the vault. The bell was ringing yet this morning. The burglars left a large monkey wrench, sledge and a large plece of steel, Just before they entered the bank and as Night Watchman Thompson arrived in front of Kastle's store he.-met two men, whom he accosted, when two men on the opposite side of the street in front of the Bank of North Bend hallooed over and asked him if there was any hotel in town. He turned his head to answer, when he was knocked down by a billy, searched, handcuffed and locked in the city jall, until released at 7 o'clock this morning. There 18 no clue to the burglars. There were four men, one large and three small, and w Escape from Death. SYRACUSE, Neb., Nov. 8.—(Special.)— Yesterday morning J. 5. Mapes and Thomas Jones had a parrow escape while driving three miles west of here. Their horse became ftrightened on the bridge, first east of the village, and backed off an embankment fifteen feet high, the car- riage falling on top of the occupants and the horse on the carriage. Mr. Mapes was struck on the back of the head, giv- ing him a severe shaking up, besides breaking his nose. Both gentlemen wero under the buggy, but fortunately for them | the box caught on a projecting timber and held it up long enough for them to both crawl out, for the horse soon went through and would have smoothered them both to death in the soft mud of the creek bank. The accident occurred at 6 o‘clock in the morning. Mr. Jones was not much hurt, but had to assist his companion into town Osmond Republicans Celebrate.

The following are extracts from some of the replies Hoke Smith, Atlanta, advisability of a distinct few men with the purpose of tlon. A party which can poll the enor- mous vote that the democratic party has recently polled is far from being a dead party.

Let the money ques |tion rest while conditions remain as at | present. Organize democratic clubs in | every voting precinct to send delegates to county, from county to state and from state to national convention of delegates to meet periodically and formulate a plat form for the party. This should be based on principles enunciated in our declara- tion of independence. Insist on a strict construction of the sole source of legisla tive power in congress.

Let democracy turn from its folly and live John ( Carlisle, New York—In order to achleve success or to become beneficlal to the country as an opposition party, the democracy must abandon all dead fssues, free itself from all demoralizing alliance and return to the true principles and pol tefes of the party. The new questions precipitated upon the country by the c duct of the present administration and | the declarations of fts supporters must be met in a broad spirit of justice and sincere respect for the mandates of the constitution and the liberal principles upon which our institutions are founded. We | have drifted into a situation which makes the correct solution of these questions exceedingly difficult and the party should glve them the most careful consideration in all their aspects before committing it- self to any specific plan of adjustment. Upon the general principles involved there will be little difference of opinion, but the measures to be adopted in order to extricate the country from Its present un- fortunate position eannot be hastily for- mulated. What plau shall be prop d for the reorganization of the party in order that its real sirength may be effectively exerted is a question which it seems to we onglit to be considered and decided by a conference composed of conservative democrats, representing both elements of the party as it has existed during the last four years. All are equally interested in the success of the party on a sound and patri- otic platform of principles and therefore all should be consulted both as to the plan of reorganization and policies to be announced Senator John W.

It democracy adheres to these demands our present defeat will be only temporary Henry ~ Watterson, Loulsville—As the democtats are cast down by the result of this election, so will the republicans be elated and thrown off their guard. They will fancy they have the world in a sling They are certain to proceed to excesses. They cannot restfain either their zealots or their scamps. All the clever rogues of the time, seeing where the pickings and stealings lie, have got into the republican party. The new territories are veritable gold mines of pillage. Acts of outrage cannot be repressed or escaped. The people at home will stand aghast before the riot of corruption und despotism, and with the disappearance of the fancied dangers Incident to a change of parties, as it were, in the face of the energy, or words to that effect, wherewithal the republicans have deluded the voters and forgetfulness of the passions aroused by the luckless mis- adventure attendant upon the revolutionary fusion movement undertaken by the demo- cratic leaders of the last half decade, the | opportunity of the chastened, enlightened and reorganized democratic party will come, and when it comes there shall arlse a leader of the stature of Jefforson, of Jackson and of Tilden to glve it expression and effect. E. W. Carmack, the next Tennessce—The democratic party must stand fast by the principles of the re- public against imperialism, militarism and the treasonable conspiracy to subvert our American institutions and sell our Ameri- can birthright for the plunder of distant provinces, It must stand for democracy against plutocracy, for competition against monopoly, for the people agdinst the trusts.

Revive the federal question of taxation, teach the democratic doctrine that people cannot be made rich by taxing them, assail the favoritism and wrongs of a high protective tariff, stand for the control of trusts and combines by methods not op- pressive, demand enlargement of the powers of the interstate commerce commission and the liberal improvermeuts of harbors and insist on local self-government and let the next presidential candidate remain at home during the campalgn.
