WILL ACT AS A TEST CASE Chattel and salary loan dealers of Omaha have combined in an effort to defeat in the courts the anti-loan shark law passed by the last legisla- ture. They have retained the law firm of Smyth Smith & Schall, as a result of whose efforts a former anti- loan shark law was knocked out and & test case has been started on its way to the supreme court. Attorney Schall, who will attempt to convince the supreme court that the law should be held vold, maintains that it is unconstitutional on the alleged grounds that it is specias legislation and that it takes property without due process of law. Attorney J. P. Palmer, who as a | member of the legislature fathered the law, will take an active interest in as sisting the city legal department to de- fend it Cane s Appealed. 1 A test case initiated In police court and | appealed to district court by Jule Althaus, the defendant, was quickly disposed of by who fined Althaus 325 for violations of the law which he ad- mitted. Judge Sears held that the law was constitutional and Attorney Schall immediately took an appeal Altheus was charged In police court by | Attorney T. J. MoGuire, representing the | city, with having engaged in the chattel and salary loan business without securing a city license and with having charged | more than 10 per cent, the maximum rate | of interest nllowed by the anti-loan shark | law. Althaué admitted the facts as al- |legeq and appealed to district court, Fol- lowing an immediate hearing he was fined §25. A motion for arrest of judgment on the ground that the law was unconsti- tutional was filed In his behalf, which was overruled by Judge Sears, By this means the case was carried to the su- {preme court without delay. Allege Diserimination. The anti-loan shark law provides that chattel and salary loan dealers may not | charge more than 10 per cent, but that they may charge fees for examination of applicants and for preparing papers. Attorney BSchall indicuted that the de- fense may turn this clause fo advantage in the attack on the' constitutionality of the measure, by alleging that the clause discriminates against banks and other finenclal agencles, hich have not the privilege of charging such fees. The clause is a subterfuge to permit loan men to cording to Attorney Bchall em—— Alllance Newn No ALLIANCE, Neb., Aug. 17.—(Spegial.)— At & meeting of the directors of the Com- mercial club today $150 was approprinted to help pay the expensea of an exhibit at charge more than 10 per cent interest, ac- | TIGERS RAMBLE T0 A DOUBLE VICTORY Irrepressible Sluggers of Jennings Whip the Cleveland Indians Twice.

It has to do with Gas Ranges and all manner of Lighting Fixtures, They usually sell at the full prices because they are good values at regular prices. But this is different. You see these things are slightly damaged, and that accounts for the reductions. . There are Gas Ranges guaranteed good as / new, but because they have been used a few weeks they have been reduced. Other Ranges are merely shop worn-—a little rust on top where water dripped upon them—but out they go at cut prices. Then there are fixtures of every descrip- tion—Water Heaters, Heating Stoves, com- bination Gas and Electric Fixtures, Domes, Portable Brackets, assorted Shades, Globes, Welsbach Lamps, Gas Toasters, odds and ends of every description. There \s not space here to tell of everything nor to quote values. You should come to our display rooms and seée for yourself. Surely you will be surprised at the savings possible. Come at ouce, because when people see what great values we are giving, things will go rapidly. It simply means we must soll perfectly good Gas Appliances at cut prices because they are shop worn or slightly used. 1509 Howard Street ) (Near Sixteenth) . For Resulis Bee Want Ads.
