LEGISLATIVE
PROCEEDINGS
Hon. F. M. Ilmome. State lteireeiit
atlve from This DUtrirt, (Jive
IntcrvNtlng Interview
While In Lincoln last week The
Herald representative had the prlv-j
liege of spending some time with
lion. F. M. Uroonie of Alliance, state (
representative from the district com-'
posed of llox Ilutte and Sheridan
counties. On request Mr. Uroome
pave a description of the work done
by the present legislature.
The following statements were
given In the Interview:
Immediately prior to assembling
of the present legislative session, it
was a matter of common occurrence
to hear various Individuals Inform-
Ing members that there had never
been assembled In the state legisla
ture a body of men far above the av
erage In general appearance than
during the present session. Know
ing full well the general sentiment
of contempt existing In the public
mind of all large cities for state leg
islatures, It simply occurred to me
that It was hot air thrown out only
to flatter the members that they
might be the more easily worked to
fall for the many schemes to be pre
sented for separating the state treas
ury from its funds. However, time
sufficiently having elapsed Blnce the
beginning of the session to form an
Intimate acualntance with all of the
members Individually, I am quali
fied to say that the statements above
referred to were In no way exagger
ated. Members of the present ses
sion are all men possessing a sense
of high regard for proprieties both
as to personal conduct and personal
appearance, and also In the manner
of speech. There Is not a roughneck,
rounder or ignoramus in the entire
assembly, and every member is im
bued with a sense of justice to view
each and every measure proposed en
tirely upon Its merits rather than
upon prejudice or sordid motives.
The general sentiment among
members Is against the creation of
new legislation, so far as possible,
preferring to confine their efforts to
ward repealing and amending defect
ive or ill advised laws now on the
statutes, recognizing that public
opinion existing among the people at
large is that we now have too many
naws. As a result of this sentiment
only 178 bills thus far have been In
troduced as against nearly 500 for
the same length of time last session.
One must learn only from actual
experience the fallacy of the Import
ance placed upon committees ap
pointed to consider bills Introduced
before being considered by the body
as a whole. People living out thru
the state are led to believe that the
Influence or importance of these rep
resenting them is based largely upon
the name of some committee when
as a matter of truth, committees are
provided only for the purpose of
fostering this belief among the peo
ple. So far as actual legislation is
concerned, it is affected upon consid
eration by the entire assembly, the
committees having the power only to
submit their opinions or recommen
dations for definite action by the
whole house, and if In accord with
the Ideas of a majority In the house,
such recommendations go, otherwise
they are turned down. As yet, no
bill has been Introduced calculated
to greatly interest or arouse people
thruout the state. Several measures
to be considered will no doubt fur
nish interest sufficient to arouse in
terest among the members, but as to
the people themselves, nothing that
would warrant the sending In of pe
titions for or against, or the bring
ing of any undue pressure upon
members in the matter of voting for
or against any particular proposi
tion has come up. Of course there
is time enough, there being yet sev
en days in which bills may be Intro
duced, but there is nothing on the
surface to indicate that there will be
A matter of general Interest to be
considered is that of providing for
properly legalizing the practice of
chiropractic. Members of this pro
fession from all parts of the state
are in Lincoln in large force working
hard for the enactment of al aw glv
ing them equal standing with medic
al or osteopathy. Just what the out
come may be is bard to foretell.
The warehouse bill at the present
time is every man's guess. Farmers
are about equally divided for and
against the proposition, which gives
the elevator men a great field for
active work and incidentally the
printers grind out tons of more or
less invaluable literature, much of
which finds a temporary resting
place in waste baskets. While it Is
a fact that the proposition formed
part of the democratic platform, yet
the action by various agricultural as
sociations and organizations Is more
than likely to wield an Influence
greater than political platforms with
a majority of the members in the
legislature.
Several bills Intended for the gen
eral welfare of the volunteer firemen
and also paid fire departments, are
being considered, the sentiment in
the house generally being in favor of
giving the boys everything they ask
for within reason.
It Is generally conceded that some
legislation relative to state owner
ship of water power sites will be en
acted but just in what form will have
to be threshed out from the various
measures proposed.
There are two bills relative to es
tablishlng state printing plants to be
considered. They are aimed at the
alleged printing combine which it is
claimed holds the state up for print
ing at extortionate rates. Should
the bills result In the state effecting
printing contracts at prices no high
er than the cost would be with a pun
He plant. It Is quite likely provisions
In the bills on file may not excite
much Interest among members, more
especially those of the press.
The question of public roads and
bridges Is also one likely to excite
state wide Interest. There are Ideas
along this line numerous as there
are members In the house, or more
so, and to get them all down In con
crete form so that something tangi
ble may result is going to be one of
the difficult problems with which the
session must wrestle.
The same proposition Is true rela
tive to the many educational meas
ures to be considered, and anything
written on the subject at the present
time would be a mere guess, until all
of the many propositions are prop
erly sifted out for some one Intelli
gent method of procedure. The prop
osition to do away with the old sys
tem of school districts and make one
district for the whole county may re
ceive serious consideration.
It, Is safe to assume that any meas
ure Introduced or that may be Intro
duced referring In any way to the
liquor tralllc will never be allowed to
be brought upon the floor of the
house for discussion, largely for the
reason that it would create dlssen
tions the bouse leadership could not
afford to risk.
The proposition to create state In
surance companies may also involve
a discussion that will arouse public
Interest, when the matter conies up
for consideration.
The meusure providing for a min
imum scale for wages In the larger
cities and also proposed changes in
the worklngman's compensation act
is also likely to arouse public Inter
est. All other bills now on file bear the
same relation to general public in
terest as do equity cases In district
courts, and a recital of them would
make an article too lengthy for read
ing purposes.
The coming week may develop
something of more public Interest
both in the line of bills to be intro
duced and upon those to be consid
ered, and as subjects above mention
ed will not be brought up for final
action before this Interview Is pub
lished, it Is given In a manner that
will not prove stale news when pub
llshetd. People easily constipated dread
the winter. Nothing but hard, course
meals. No fruits, no vegetables to
keep the stomach active. Your best
relief, your greatest friend now is
Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea, the
world's Tonic physic. Do it tonight.

Outlook Very Bright
W. D. Howard, Immigration agent
of the Burlington, passed through
Alliance Sunday on his way to Oma
ha headquarters. Mr. Howard stat
ed that the blanket of snow now cov
ering Nebraska and adjoining states
will mean successful crops of many
kinds during the coming season,
that it will be of great help to the
range, and that It will mean more
water for Irrigation enterprises.

IIKill COST OF LIVING
Menu of Dining Car on Western Kali
nmd Shows Advance In Cost
of MettlN Ik Great
An Alliance man, traveling recent
ly on a western railroad, who had
the temerity to take a meal In the
dining car, noted down the cost of a
few items on the bill of fare. Some
of the Items were as follows:
Baked apple with cream, 25c;
stewed prunes, 20c; oat meal with
cream, 25c; breakfast sausage, SOc;
buckwheat or corn cakes, 25c; milk,
per bottle, 15c; buttermilk, per bot
tle, 15c; soup,20c; sirloin steak, $1;
ham and eggs, 65c; two eggs, any
style, 25c; potatoes, 15c; bread and
butter, 10c; cup of coffee, 10c; pot
of tea, 15c; six oysters, 35c.
The aforesaid Alliance man ate
three meals at a cost of $3.05, plus
tips to the waiters of 30 cents. He
doesn't know whether to call this the
high cost of living, or the cost of
high living.
Thus far It looks like a perfectly
good year.
