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.
