This rultng of the court amounts to an frvalidation of the schedule form of ballot contained In the election law passed by the last legislature, but It upholde the text of the law, which the court declares was meant to enable a person to cast a straight party vote. The schedule bas the people's Independent and democratic parties grouped together with a bracket connecting the two.

It will be fireproof throughout and according to the latest ideas of library architecture. The interior arrangement of Cooling Off. The man who would sit on a cake of {ce to cool off would be considered crazy.

We think we have met all of these requirements. ““The arrangement of apartments on the main floor is the determining feature of the bullding, to which all other detalls are made subordinate. Iu selecting bullding material It was determined to eliminate all sham and Imitation of every kind and as far ae possible to have all material the best of the kind. The basement s faced with blue Bedford limestone. For the super- structure we have a gray pressed brick with light terra cotta trimmings. The roof 18 to be covered with red tile and the dome with copper. The ornamental features of the bullding are confined aimost wholly to the entrance and tjje space over the win- dows. The windows are surmounted by corbels of terra cotta and around the en- tire bullding near the top extends a broad terra cotta cornice supported by dentils and modiillons The walls have an ornamental crest of terra cotta. The entrance s the rich and distinctive feature of the bullding. The exterior flight of steps is of easy grade and the extreme breadth makes the ap- proach Imposing. Over the entrance will be a pediment supported by two massive pllasters and twe pure lonic columns. T doorway s arche@ and in the spandrels a two female figures, representing Science and Literature. The vestibule will contain a bronze tablet commemorative of Mr. Ca negle's donatlon. ““At present the library hi shelves about 10,500 volumes added Mr. Gelsthardt. “Besides there are some 400 volumes which have been purchased but not recelved and about 2,500 volumes of govern- ment publications, obtained through Con- gressman Burkett. The bookshelves or stacks at the outset will have a capacity of 16,300 volumes. The construction of the shelves, however, will be such as to permit additions and the construction of a second tier. with a total capacity of 36,000 vol- umes."” upon its dorses Giffen's Suggestions. In a letter on the subject of vaccigation in the public schools of Nebraska, State Superintendent Fowler calls attention to the suggestions of Surgeon General Giffen, printed exclusively in The Bee Tuesday morning, and recommends that they be ob- served wherever possible. Mr. Fowler ad- mits that the local school boards have no legal power to compel pupils to present cer- tificates of vaccination, but he insists that they have a right,to deny admission to those who refuse to be vaccinated. His letter, answerlng the questions propounded, #s tollows: (1) *“Has the board power to compel all pupils to present certificates of vaccina- tlon?’ 1 answer, No. (2) “It such certiticates are not presented can the principals of the various bulldings refuse admission?” I answer, Yes. (3) “Would you advise such action on t part of the bourd?’ While the board h! not the right to compel puplls to present certificates of vaccination it has the right to refuse those pupils who fail or refure to present such certificates admission to the schools, and owing to the probable epidemic of smallpox which threatens every com- munity in Nebraska I would advise that the Board of Education take such precaution for the geneial as well as the specific forith Cof your community: provided, of courss hat such action Is based on a consensus of opinion of the physiclans of your city.

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUPREME COURT SETTLES IT Allows the Mandamus Asked For by the Douglas Osunty Dsmoorats, CONNOLLY AND BRUNING THE CANDIDATES jer of the Commli nds and the Electio Be Held in the New Second. oner (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Oct. 23.—(Special Telegram.)— The supreme court has allowed the writ of mandamus asked against County Clerk Hav- erly of Douglas county, directing him to call for the election of a county commissioner in the mew Second district of Douglas county and to place the names of the c didates on the officfal ballot. Judges Holcomb and Sullivan unite in the opinion allowing the writ. Justice Nor- val dissents on the grounds of res judicata and has formed no comclusion as to the merits of the case. The hearing on the appeal from the de- cislon of Judge Baker allowing a writ of mandamus providing for the call for an election in the new First district was deemed unnecessary, the allowing of the writ by the supreme court having disposed of the matter, This contest grows out of the democratic gerrymander of the commissioner districts last summer for the purpose of providing a district for James Connolly, whose origi- nal district, the Second, comprising the Third, Elghth @nd Ninth wards, was certaln to elect a republican. The new district comprises the First, Second and Third wards. Connolly was re-nominated by the democratic convention for the place on the ticket, and Fred sBruning was nominated by the republican county committee, pro- vistonally on the decision of the supreme court. This leaves the contest between Cénnolly and Bruning. It also invalidates the contingent nominations of Lyman Waterman and George Munro. When fuformed of the supreme court's decision, Charles A. Goss, chairman of the republican county central committee, said: “I have rothing to say about this matter at presant, as I am not posted on the legal phases uf the question. However, we have a strong candidate in the Second district in the person of Fred Bruning and he will give Jim Connolly the race of his life.” When Fred Bruning was told of the re- sult he sald: ‘I am glad to hear it. I h rally been anxlous to know it I were going to run, but now that it has been settled 1 am ready to get out and make a lively canvass. I certainly expect to be elected.” ONE OF THE WEST'S PIONEERS Johanm Spethmann, Who with His Wife Celebrates Diamond Wed- ding, is Alert at 84, GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Oct. 23.—(Spe- clal.)—Johann Rudolph August Spethmann, who, with his wite, Malvina Spethmann, celebrated his sixtieth, or dlamond, wed- ding anniversary at the Liederkranz hall Tuesday evening In the circle of a large number of relatives and friends and the members of that eoclety, was born in Schleswig-Holsteln, Germany, eighty-four years ago.
