LINCOLN, Neb., March 1-—Special)— | The committes in charge of the county | option convention to be held in Lincoln March 14 and 15, has arranged with (ov- ernor Hanly of Indiana to deliver the pr clpal address on the night of the 14th. During the afterncon of that day there will be held a platform convention at which a platform endorsing county option will be adopted or at least proposed for adoption. On the night that Governor Hanly speaks. Senator J. A. Donohoe of O'Nelll and Sen- | ator Cain of Richardson county will also | speak. Either that night or on the even- ing following Semator J. E. Miller and Sen- ator E. P. Brown of Lancaster county will speak. 8. K. Warrick, president of the Antl- saloon league of the state, announced at a recent meeting that the party which does not endorse county optfon is doomed to de- feat this fall at the polls, and if Governor menhu:er runs for re-election on the ®oiclock closing law and does not en- dorse county optfon he is sure of defeat. So it is possible at the meeting an effort will be made to secure a statement from Governor Shallenberger for or against county optin. If he does mnot endorse county option it is not improbable that an effort will be made to secure a candidate for the democratic nomination who will stand for the Bryan liquor program This meeting has been set just ahead of the Laymen's convention, which begins March 15, so It 18 expected a large crowd will be In the city.

Traction Company Replies. The Lincoln Traction company has filed a reply brief to the brief of County At- torney Tyrrell, who objects to the amount of stock and bonds issued by the company as belng out of proporition to the value of the company’s property. When the two companies were merged, the Lincoln Trac- tion company and the Citizens Street Rail- way company, the stock issue was upon an agreed value. The reply says: The. question of the basls of stock issues 1s purely one of state policy. Mr. Tyrrell's argument really means that a law limiting the par value of stocks and bonds to phys- feal valuation ise better than a law allow- ing a stock lssuo on the basis of market value. The law passed by the last legls- lature adopts physical valuation as the basis. The old did not. It authorized & stock issue upon the basts of present and prospective earnings value. A Massachu- setss statute has for several years limited stock {ssues to physical valuation. It may be observed in passing that wages are no higher in Massachusetts than in Nebraska, are fares lower. dslature is the judge of state poi-. ‘ebruary 1, 1909, it had not adopted olicy of Ifmitfng stock issues to physical valuation.
