WRIGHT ASKS A REHEARING Tells the Supreme Court It Erred in Deciding Polico Board Case. DECISION DISAPPOINTS THE GOVERNOR State Board Leases All the School Land in Boyd County, Which Cleans Up Practically All the Land in the State. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, May 24.—(Special.)—A motion for a new trial of the Omaha Fire and Police commission case was filed in the supreme court today. The application is made by C. C. Wright, relator in the man- éamus case. The following grounds are cited as reasons why & new trial should be granted: Because the jud dered herein by law Because the court erred in refusing to grant the writ of mandamus as prayed. Because the court erred in sustaining the plea as res adjudicata set forth in the Teturn of the respondens, Because the court erred in holding that the state wag a party in the case of the Btate ex rel Smyth against Moores et al. ent and decision rén- the court is contrary to Because the court errew in holding the matter adjudicated in the case of the State ex rel Bmyth againat Moores was the right of the governor to appoint. * ‘Because 1he court erred in holding that an action against a person to oust him from office {8 an action against an officer, the result of which bind ccessor in the office. Because the court erred in holding that the state was a party in the several actlons mentl in the relurn to the alternative writ lssuea in this ca Because the court erred in holding that there was anything in ltigation in the judgment set up as res adjudicata in this case further than the term of office held by the parties at that time.

Governor is DV Governor Savage has not hesitated -to show his disappointment at the holding ot the court. He was anxious to have the writ of mandamus fssued and hau even gone £o far as to determine upon a list of appoint- ments, which would have been made public immediately had the court decided against the present board. Governor Savage was out of the city when the court's opinion was delivered, but when he returned the next day he hastened to the department of jus- tice for a consultation with Attorney Gen- eral Prout. Just what advice or recom- mendation was given by the attorney gen- eral Is not known, but it s given cut semi officlally that the governor will not at tempt to install a board of his own creation unless the supreme court overrules the mo- tion for a new trial. What agitites’ the governor is that por- tion of the opinion which declares: “The decision in the Moores case is not,law, but tor the purpose of litigation it stands in the place of the law. The governor may point, but In the face of & plea of res judicata we cannot put his appointee possession of the office.” Land Commisisoner Follmer and Deputy Commissioner Eaton returned today from Boyd county, where they held a serles of successtul school land auctions. “We consider the auctions in Boyd county among the best we have held this year," sald Mr. Eaton. “The demand for the land was far greater than the supply and in every instance the land was bid up to the full ‘appralsed value, and in many cases land was rented on an excees basis. The value upon which we leased the land ranged trom $8 to $20.75 per acre. We leased about 2,000 acres and could have disposed of twice as much at the same prices. There were buyers there from Omaha, Sloux City and various places in Nebraska and South Dakota, besides the residents of Boyd county.. The territory there is enjoying a substantial boom and bids fair to Become one of the most prospero and important communities in the stat This practicaly puts all the school land In the state under lease, the few acres re- maining being fractional pleces.
