{ HE OMAHA DAILY BEE HURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 1902 Reward of Merit. A New Catarrh Cure Secures National Poy larity in Less than One Year. Throughout a great nation of eighty milllon it {s a desperate struggle to securs even a recognition for a new article to say Bothing of achieving popular favor, and yet within one year Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets, the new catarrh cure, has met with such success that today it can be found in every drug store throughout the United States and Carada. To be sure a large amount of advertising was necessary In the first nstance to bring the remedy to the attention of the publie, but overyone familiar with the subject knows that advertising alone never made any article permanently successful. It must have in addition absolute, undeniable merit, and this the new catarrh cure centalaly possesses in a marked degree. Physiclans, who tormerly depended upon inhalers, sprays and local washes or oint- ments, now use Stuart's Catarrh Tablets because, as one of the most prominent stated, these tablets contain in pleasant, convenient form all the really efMcient ca- tarrh remedies, such as red gum, blood root and similar antiseptics They contaln no cocalne nor oplate, and re given to little children with entire fety and benefit. Dr. J. J. Reitiger, of Covington, Ky., says “I suffered from catarrh in my head and throat every fall, with stoppage of the nose and frritation in the throat affecting my volce and often extending to the stomach, causing catarrh of the stomach. I bought & ffty-cent package of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at my druggist's, carried them in my pocket and used them falthtully, and the way in which they cleared my head and throat was certainly remarkable. 1 had no catarrh last winter and spring and consider myself entirely free from any catarrhal trouble."” . Mrs. Jerome Ellison, of Wheeling, W. Va., writes: "I suffered from catarrh nearly my whole life and last winter my two children also suffered from catarrhal colds and sore throat so much they were out of school a large portion of the winter. My brother who was cured of catarrhal deafness by using Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets urged me to ry them so much that I did so and am truly thanktul for what for my self and my children. I always keep & box of the tablets in the house and at the first appearance of a cold or sore throat we nip it in the bud and catarrh is no longer a household afiction with us.” Full sized packages of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold for fifty cents at all drug- gists.

LEGALITY OF PEDDLERS' LICENSE LAW Sherift of ze ¥ Acting Governmor Warns Holt County Against I ng Company Incorporated. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 15.—(Special.)—Attorney General Prout tonight denled the report that the State Board of Compromise is Degotlating for a settlement of the short age of former Treasurer Bartley “Several weeks ago the board had a proposition from the bondsmen, but it was promptly turned down,” sald he. “The board has taken no steps whatever toward the settlement of the claim against the bondsmen. The offer they made was so nsignificant that we decided not to give it to the public. Nor have any steps been taken by the board toward a settlement with Joseph Bartley.” The cuse of the state agalnst the bonds- men is still pending before the supreme court and will be called for hearing at an early day. There is some likelihood of the bondsmen making another effort to effect A compromise before the case is submitted, but it Is not likely that the board will take the initlative. Legality of Peddl The legality of the peddler's license law, which was passed by the last legislature, 1s questioned In the case of Gerard against the State, now pending before the supreme court. In the trial court of Hall county W. E. Gerard was convicted for peddling without & license. From that judgment an Appeal was taken'and four reasons are now given for a reversal. “They are First—The peddler's license law s a revenue measure for the purpose of ralsing taxes; and nonpayment of taxes cannot be punished criminally. Second—The title of the act is not broad enough to embrace a criminal provision. Third—The law is too indefinite and un- certain It its provisions to be valid as a criminal measure. Fourth—The Mw exempts certain per- sons from the payment of taxes and is therefore aot uniform in its operation and is unconstitutional. Bank Directors Re-Eleoted.

Webster delivered before the Bar association I no- tice the following statement in reference to the Declaration of Independence: “It w a document for the time, etc.” This doctrine is so distasteful to me that I can- not keep still and yet I shall not ask suffi- clent space to answer his arguments, but you may be willing to allow me a few statements. This is not Mr. Webster's first offense. On more than one occasion during the past two or three years he has taken it upon himself to assure the people that we have outgrown the principles of government set forth in the Declaration ot Independence, and this, in the face of the fact that our supreme court has but re- cently declared that this declaration is the spirit of the constitution, And so 1 suppose if we have outgrown the spirit of the constitution we bave outgrown the constitution {tself also. But why this over anxiety from certain quarters to convince the people that these fundamental principles of their govern- ment are too narrow for future use in the development and progress of their country? These same advocates admit that under their benign Influence we have outstripped all other natlons In all things that go to make a great and prosperous people. How Is it that all at once these wise gentlemen | have discovered that we are hampered in our onward progress by these very princl- ples of the fathers which bhave made us really great? Is it because they think that our present policy and late history cannot be reconciled with the principles of liberty and equal rights lald down in the Declara- tion of Independence? If #o, then far bet- ter change our present polley to fit our history and traditions than undertake to overturn and destroy these fundamental principles of government so gallantly fought for by the heroes of 1776 and so zealously guarded by the immortal Lincoln, who pronounced them as enduring as time. The people will belleve Lincoln. To me, to contend that this declaration only a “document for the time' and that we as a nation have outgrown its use- fulness to us, is far more censurable than to question the wisdom of our present pol- ley and seeming departure from the “old land marks. 1t is always easy to drift with the cur- rent and desire to be “on the ground floor” in all radical changes and movements in government, but the wise statesman knows that all change is not progress and that the spirit of the former alone is easily mis- taken for that of the latter. I trust, that this new-fangled doctrine may not take deep root in Nebraska, but that we may rather choose to abide in the faith of our fathers, who would have as soon thought of claiming that the ten com- mandments had become obsolete as that the principles of thelr Declaration of Inde- pendence should fall. They both contaln truths that will remain to the end of time, and, so far as my observation goes, those who would limit the life of the latter would be willing to attend the funeral of the former. I trust Webster is not of this class. L. K. ALDER. PAWNEE CITIZENS INTERESTED Moneyed Men of Town Amoug Incor- porators of Omaha, Kansnw & Gulf Raflrond.

MANDAMUS ty WRIT OF THE REMEDY Opinion of Attorney Declares that L Compelled to Vote School General Prout Voters May Be Taxes. (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 16.—(8pecial)—In an opinion given today Attorney General Prout declares that for the purpose of pre- venting the wrongful olosing of public schools because of lack of funds the county superintendent may apply to the distriet court for a peremptory writ of mandamus to compel the legal voters of the d to meet and vote taxes pursuant to the re- quirements of the law. Superintendent Fowler savs that in many districts In the state the voters have falled to provide for the expenses of the schools. He has been asked to suggest a remedy for this condition and because of its legal nature the question was submitted to the attorney general. The ruling s concluaive and Mr. Fowlér says ho will expect county superintendents to act aee cordingly. The question asked by Mr. Fowler in “Where no levy was voted at the annual meeting for achool purposes, or where the distriot voted to have mo school, or where no action was taken by the annual meet- ing to provide for school, what should be the method of procedure to insure the chil- dren of such district thelr right to attend a free public school Attorney Gemer The response of Attorney Genersl Prout follows The question presented fs fmportant, but not free from perplexities. The people of this state when they adopted the present constitution declared & purpose to grant to all persons between 5 and 31 years of age the right to instruction in the eommon schools. An_enlightened citizenship was thought to be essential to the proper and efMclent administration of the form of gov- ernment adopt To provide opportunities for education s, therofore, one of the chief concerns of the state. A school district i« organized pursuant to law for educational purposes and s clothed with power to carry those purposes Into effect. The ldea that a wehool district may deteat by ballot the purposes of its creation and thus de- prive Its resident children of educational rights guaranteed by the constitution Is not to be entertained for a moment. A vote to deny such rights is volid. n elec tion_resulting in_a decision to close th common schools for a year, except on ac count of an epidemic or other good reason, is_an abeolute nullity, where It deprives schoolable children of ‘their rights to free Instraction. Constl 's Respense. utional Provisions. The manner of enforeing a child's rights to educational advantages, where suc! rights have been denled by the contumacy of the electors of a rural school district, I8 therefore the problem for solution. As already stated, the mandate of the law is that there shall be school. A fair interpretation of the statutes justifies the conelusion that thefe shall be at least three months of school each year. There must be at least one term. Schoolable children are required to attend school at least two months of every year. Provision is made for school in districts having four puplls or less. Upon the legal voters of a rural school district the law imposes the duty of voting revenue to rin the schools. They may provide for more than three months of school, but they cannot provide for less. They may determine at the an- nual meeting whether the school funds “shall be applied to the winter or summer term or a certaln portion to each. “Legal Voters' Not Whole District. The “legal voters” of a school district, who have so much power, are not the whole diatrict. The only a frac- ns of the dis- dren are not entitled to the h protection of the law: titled to educationa the laws provide. annual school meeting act for themselves alone the entire district in dutles pointed out by law. voters At an annual_meeting are charged with public duties relating to one of the most essential tunctions of government For purposes of the present inqairy it matters not whether the legal voters at an annual meeting are regar as public officers or as indlvidual The result in efther sftuation is the same, since the tles imposed upon them by law are d which they owe to the public. If they looked upon as officers, or as wu board charged with public duties, then the power of the courts to compel them by 'man- damus to provide necessary revenue o llu‘!lmrl the schools cannot be doubted Officers who are required by law to assess or levy taxes for school purposes may be Tequired by mandamus to perform that uty. 1f legal voters at an annual meeting are regarded as individuals, then they are in- dividuals charged by law with the per- formance of a duty to the public. They cannot avold a public duty on the ground that they are individuals, It has been de- cided by the supreme court of this state and_ by other courts that a duty enjolned by statute upon an individual may be en- forced by mandamus, where the duty fe- lates to the public welfare. For the reasons stated I am of the opin- fon that the legal voters of a rural dis. trict, In a proper case, may be compelled by mandamus to vote revenue for school purposes. The remedy by mandamus, however, can- Y are en- for which voters at an do not act for | not be invoked hefore the annual meeting, for the reason that it cannot previously be known that the legal voters will attempt to evade their duty and refuse to vote the necessary funds. but after there has been an annual meeting at which they falled to vote the necessary taxes a parent or guardian of a schoolable child may main- taln in_the district court an action for a writ of mandamus to compel the voters to meet and vote revenue for school purposes. Fallure of the electors to vote tax at the time designated by statute not prevent the legal performance of duty at a later date. Where the petl- tioner Invoking such a remedy 8 one of the legal voters of the school district he should pray for a writ to compel the other legal voters to unite with him in voting such taxes. Rights of Children Not Lest. In the improbable event that no one can be found in the distriot who is willing to bring a sult, still the rights of the chil- dren will not be lost. One of the duties imposed by statute upon the county super- intendent of public instruction fy * to me. neral and regular attendghce of the of his “counts upon the publie schoo He cannot pertorm this duty un- less the schools are open, and the schools cannot be kept open without revenue. The power of the superintendent to require the attendance of puplls implies the power to invoke the aid of the courts to prevent the wrongful closing of the schools, Where the law fmposes a duty upon an officer, and the duty cannot be performed without the as- sistance of the court, the officer may apply for a writ of mandamus. To prevent the wrongful closing of the public schools for want of revenie the county superintendent, according to my understanding of the lnw, may apply to the district court for a_per- emptory writ of mandamus to compel the legal voters of a rural school district to meet and vote taxes pursuant to the re. quirements of the statute. This Is the view taken by the supreme court of this state in & cace fnvolving the same principle.
