TO GIVE GOVERNOR A CLUB With Inithative and Referendum on the Statute Book Shallenberger Backers Feel They Would Have Better Chamce. Friends of Mayor Dahtman are beginning to evince some anxlety as to the underly- ing reason for the desperate efforts being made to have Governor Shallenberger call an extra session of the state legislature. They have finally figured it out that the move Is in the Interest of Shallenberger's own candidacy for repomination and elec- tion, “‘Some of our friends in different parts of the state have“sighed the petition,” sald @& warm supporter of the mayor, vidently without .glving it much consideration, The extra session boosters insist they desire only to have the party pass the Initiative and referendum law. In the naturhl course ot events the enactment of that law could very well be left for the next regular session of the legislature. “But there's where the rub comes. Men who are urking the extra seasion are friends of the governor, and want him re-clected, some for the purpose of hang- ing onto their offices, others for different reasons. They feel that after the way he has broken his promises to the liguor men, the business men and the trades unionists Shallenberger has little chance to win out a8 matters stand. Hence they figure that it they get the Initiative and referendum on the statute book/it will be much easier to whip the flquor Interests and corpora- tions Into lne. There's the secret of the extra sesslon movement." In this connection it will be récalled thet Mayor Dahlman, Tom Flynn, the Douglas ‘Good Habits Pay in Good Health. Bad habits cost money, time, aches, ails, trouble! What's the use? Coffee drinking is a bad habit for some people, Go to the primer class if you havey’t yet learned that.

And in this view City Comp- troller Lobeck and ofher party leaders who are not identified with the Dahiman wing of the party coinclde Now that they have finally awakened to the real slgnificarice o the Allen-Mullen move, the anti-option democrats of Douglas county have succeeded in enlisthag the active support of the local democratic organ in an endeavor to have the extra session stalled off. While viewing this strife City Comp- troller Lobeck has not yet filed Nis declara- tion as a candidate for Congressman Hitehcock's seat. He has not sald he will not file, however, and continual pressure is being brought to bear on him by friends to get in the game early. * Creditors Will Contest Hanson Policy to Bank Men Who Advanced Money to Res- tauranteur Want to Get In on That Insurance. E. F. Leary, trustee of the estate of Tolt Hanson, has been ordered by C. G. Me- Donald, reteree, to allow the claims uf the creditors who advanced money to tide over | Tolt Hanson after his financial troubles were known. When the trouble started an assessment amounting to 3 per cent of their claims was made on the creditors. This amounted to $3600, and this money is now ordered repald. Creditors announce they will contest the claim of tue First National bank to the $20,000 )\f2 {nsurance poiley which s due from the New Kngland Mutual Insurance company. The polley was assigned to the bank, but the creditors will contest the atvignment and insist through the courts that the money be turned over to the cred- itors, BEEF TRUST PROSECUTION MAY HAVE INNING HERE Likely to Give Some Work to Omal oftietn of Depastment of Justice. Although no specific instructions have been received at the office of the Unmited States district attorney In Omaha, relative to the proceedings to be instituted against the beef trust to ascertain If it Is respons- ible for the maintenance of the present high prices of fresh meats, the Omaha branch of the Department of Justice expects to take some part In the investigations, as it did in the beet trust cases a fow years ago, when a great mass of testimony was mitted In Chicago. The gist of the testimony secured before the grand jury in Omaha three years ago was in relation to the attempts of the beef trust to stifle competition by freeaing out the smaller meat retallers, and withesses appeared before the grand jury from all parts of the state. Managers of the several packing houses of South Omaha were also haled before the grand jury. The hearings at Omaha ranked second In Importance to those at Chicago. | It is for this reason that the Department | of Justice officials In Omaha believe that Omaha will agaln become an important factor in the proposed prosecution of the beef trust, belng nearer the surface of | original supply than even Chicago. to the dyspeptin. pepsia, debility Electric Bitters oure dys- Ifver ard kidney complaints and CREIGHTON WILL, ADJUSTED @irls’ Home Get_l;‘,&oo and Heirs Willl Cut Up $75,000. THREE JUDGES GIVE DECISION Bequest for Working Girl tion is Valld, Says Oourt, Home Must Share in Div| of Residue of Estate, / Instita- and By decree of district court the heirs of Count John A. Creighton are to recelve $76,000 of the $160,000 residue of the estate and the working girls, home is to get $86,000. The three judges of the court who gave the decision Saturday morning held, first, that the tenth paragraph of the will, which makes a $50,000 bequest for the working girls’ home, Is valid. It was contended for the heirs that this clause of the will s vague, Indefinite and uncertain, leaving a doubt as to the whole intent of the tes- tator; particularly as to who the bene- ticlaries should be. The Judges disagreed with the assertion, saying that the object of the bequest was clear enough, and that detalls of the scheme can be worked out saticfactorily by the trustees. The second question before the cour: in- volyed the thirteenth paragraph of the will. It Is this clause which devises the residue of the estate. It was in contention whether or not the working girls' home Is one of the specific legatees to whom the residue is devised. The court held that it ts. The third question before the court grew out of the second and was the really per- plexing one of the three. 1t was how the residue of $110000 was to be cut up. Resldue a Perplexing Ques: Count Creighton In his will bequeathed any residue there might be to all specific legatees menttoned in his will in such pro- portion as each legacy bore to the whole estate. Had he bequeathed the residue in such proportion as each legacy bore to the whola amount devised—and this is un- doubtedly what Count Creighton intended to do—there would have been nothing for the sixteen heirs in the way lof residue. The difference may be illustrated thus: A man with an estate of $L000 bequeathes the sum of $100 to A, §100 to B and $100 also to C, D, and E. There is left a residue of §600. Now each specific bequest i one- fifth of the total amount devised, but only one-tenth of the whole estate. I W6 specific legatees get a share of the residue In such proportion as each legacy is the whole amount devised, this share is $100 each; in proportion to the whole es- tate, the share is 350 each. Count Crelghton intended, sald the three Judges, to make his will the first way, but | actually id 1t the second. All three judges, Redick, Troup and Estelle, expressed regrot that the order of the court must follow the plain meanffig of Count Creighton's will as written, although the testator in- tended to do something other than he did. Heirs All Omahans but One, The §75,000 which is left for the heirs will be divided among fifteen men and women, who are these: John D. Crelghton, M C. Ittayre, Katherine C. McGinn, Citherine M. Furay, Ellen M. Cannon, James H. McShane, John A. McBhane, Felix J. McShane, J M MeCreary, Charles F. McCreary, W. McCreary, Johg-A. McCreary, Emme: McOgeary, Mary #. Daxon and Mary C Shelby. All of these live in Omaha excep Mrs. Bheiby, who is & resident of Neligh The decision does not wholly pleas either side and it will probably be fougl thrdlgh the supreme court.
