PAGE 2. PROHIBITION BILL OPPOSED BY THREE Much Better Legislation Than if House Measure Passed Unamended. Lincoln, Neb., April 18. Prohibi tion legislation at the present session became assured today and much bet ter legislation than it would have been had the house bill been accepted ;.s dry leaders insisted three weeks ago when the senate adopted the conference committee report on the big measure. The vote in favor of the conference leport was SO to 3. Senators Mori arty, Mattes and Strehlow were the only ones who voted against the re port. This vote followed an effort of the two first named senators to have the original house bill made the agreed position of the two houses. The effort failed by a vote of 25 to 7 every senator who three weeks ago insisted and persisted that the senate "just had to"' adopt the house bill without a change of any kind whatso ever, today voted against that very measure. The measure agreed upon follows the .-en-ite amendments in twenty-odd i-oetions and the house position in a few mo'-c sections. Entirely new mat ter was written into a dozen sections while the bill was in conference. Measure Altered. Thus the measure is vastly altered over its provisions when it passed the house. In fact, there isn't a dry man in either branch who stood for the house till during the final three or four days of the conference. Today's action makes it unneces sary for Governor Neville to tall a special session of the legislature for the purpose of enacting prohibition legislation. The governor let both houses know that he expected them to settle their differences and that if they didn't they would do well to pre pare at once for a special session. The emphatic stand which he took in the matter had no little part in bringing the members around to a po sition of give and take all of them being sincerely hopeful of getting an effective law, but not all of them be ing airrecd as to how that end could l e achieved. Governor Neville is to have charge of the enforcement of the law, and to that end will be empowered to appoint deputies and organize the work just as he sees fit. He is given wide lati tude In this connection and the Suc re? s of the law's operation will there fore be a matter over which he will have control and can bring about just as he brought about the recognition of certain principles in the moulding of the measure.

REESE The members of the Woman's Re lief Corps held a very pleasant meet ing yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Eva Keese, being entertained by Mrs. Keese and Mrs. J. W.
