Using the possibility of enforcing a delay in the day of adjournment, a majority fac tion of the senate on Tuesday suc ceeded in adopting their substitute for House Roll 425, which virtually discards the governor's code revision program, conceding only the two consolidations already put into ef fect. The only other provision of the bill as it passed the house which was allowed to stand by the senate miscellaneous committee was that which permits boosting the salaries of code department heads from $5, 000 to $7,500 a year upon their sec ond term of office. Quick Work of It. All provisions which were adopted by the house of representatives au- thorizing the governor to consolidate or transfer various cade department functions from one department to another or to a constitutional officer were stricken by the senate as the committee's substitute was advanced to third reading. Over the protest of several mem bers, who complained that they had not been given time to study the new provisions, the code bloc succeeded in carrying out its plans within less Ulan 30 minutes. The committee's report was sub- mitted by Chairman James Rodman during the middle of the morning I t-iicci All r T"i r1 oc? i l.- - t-i tin 4 n V wi ' ! session and was taken up in the com- mittce of the whole a few minutes later under a susnension of the rules, i Urging immediate action. Reed told j the senate that it would be impos- . sible for the finance committee to finish up its work on the appropria-; tion bill until the code measure ; along with the banking bills and ! srame rommission bill, were disnnserl of. Raps Pay Hike. The only specific objection to the bill as it was pushed through the ; committee of the whole was by Sen- ! ator McGowan, who declared that he did not believe the code department hearts should be entitled to a salary of $7,500 when elective officers who must bear the expenses of campaigns receive less than that. Senator Reed explained this, say ing that it was intended particularly to enable the state to retain the ser vices of especially good men as heads of the trade and commerce and pub lic works departments. The senate substitute bill retains all the present code offices as pro vided under the present law. but adds a provision which permits the state tax commissioner to act as ex-officio secretary of the finance department and another which permits the gov ernor to consolidate the welfare and labor departments under one head.

The Mas- ter Mind created quite a sessation on the streets of Plattsmouth Wednes day in presenting his famous blind fold drive, a car furnished by the local Chevrolet Co. was used in the drive, and a representative commit tee of local people rode in the car dur ing the drive. The Master Mind was thoroughly blindfolded, wrapping ten yards of there inch gause around the eyes fastened in place with strips of adhesive tape, then a sack was placed over the head with the draw strings fastened at the throat. The Master Mind then entered the car and drove all over town observing traffic laws at all times, and return ed to the original starting point in perfect formation.

A petition for reinstatement in the national society of the Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution by Mrs. Helen Tufts Balie of Boston was refused today by the thirty-eighth annual congress The resolution to refuse reinstate ment was introduced by Mrs. Robert J. Johnston of Iowa, and Mrs. Alfred J. Brosseau, the president-general, immediately moved a vote. There was one dissenting voice that arose from the group of 3,600 delegates on the floor Informed of the action of the con gress, Mrs. Bailie issued the follow- ing statement: "Tl,0 o-o ,lr- r,f fl,o tl,.,r., .r. ship show themselves content to be led by mediocre minds.

Mrs. Brosseau said Mrs. Bailie's counsel had made a request to ap pear before the congress, but added that the board of management in considering the case la... year had neard all the testimony and was of the opinion no further evidence could be offered. Mrs. Bailie was expelled last year after she had made public statements charging the existence of blacklists authorized, she said, by the national officers of the D. A. R., accusing cer- tain public men and women of soeial- istic beliefs and advising that they be blacklisted by all Daughters. "There was just one dissenting voice in that whole auditorium," said Mrs. Brosseau after the executive session, at wmch tne action was taK en. At today's session the delegates voted to establish a research division ho assist the registrar-general in looking up the antecedents of ap plicants for membership.

This agricultural development j Dispatch, Th Chicago Tribune, The policy was inaugurated in 1911 by j Springfield Republican have given the Burlington as a logical outgrowth editorial nntive of his work, of a vigorous colonization policy! The New York World in one of its adopted in 1905; because it was the belief of the management of the Bur lington that the interest of the rail road should not cease with the loca tion of a new stttler, the agricultural development department was estab lished to assist the settler to get a good start and to help him to make a permanent success of his farming operations. It is logical that a railroad should be deeply- concerned about the agri cultural and industrial welfare of its territory. The interest of the rail road is identical and interwoven with that of the communities served by its lines. With the establishment of a new commercial development department it will be the policy of the manage ment of the Burlington to interest itself more vigorously in industrial development; and to engage more ac tively in promoting in an organized manner the location of new factories and industries in the territory served by its lines. It is the desire and in tention of the Burlington to reach out particularly into eastern sections where industries are congested and to locate them in the west where there are better working and living conditions and better labor condi tions. This step was taken by the Burlington with the belief that the territory being served by its lines offers splendid opportunities from the standpoint of industrial as well as agricultural development. i ne natural resources of the territory are such that there are economic ad vantages in the establishment of in dustries near the great supplies of coal and other minerals situated on Burlington rails. It is the intention of the Burlington in establishing this new department to call industrial op portunities existing in its territory to the attention or manutacturer3 who are seeking new locations. Col onization and agricultural develop ment activities will be continued by the Burlington along the same lines as in tne past, as me population trend is westward, and the country continues to develop agriculturally. there is bound to be a corresponding industrial development.

Peter Collins, of Boston. Massa chusetts, who is lecturing through i out the country on the subject of ;The Hi h Cost of Low sloras i knows America as few men know it. He has traveled in the United States and Canada in the last twenty-five years over a million miles. He has spoken directly from the public plat form in over five thousand meetings to many millions of the American people. Mr. Collins is not an alarm ist nor a pessimist yet he does not hesitate to give serious warning to the American people in regard to the dangers that confront the future of the institutions of America from enemies within of irreverence, indif ference and the low moral standards that in too many ways are sapping at the very foundations of the na tion. Mr. Collins doesn't merely indict and condemn. True indeed, he does point out the evils, the dangers and he doesn't mince words in explain ing them. But he has a remedy, a constructive one. His message is one that appeals to right thinking men and women. Catholic, Protestant. j Jews and Gentile. Leaders in all ; walks of life have given their hearty Sundav issues devoted the entire edi torial page to what Mr. Collins was accomplishing in the United States. The Saturday Evening Post. The Literary Digest, Current Literature and hundreds of other publications have givn special articles on his work. Mr. Collins has written a series of pamphlets besides many special articles for magazines on social, educational, economic, international subjects that have cir culated to the extent of several mil lion copies. He has the unique dis tinction of having the church, the government and the labor movement give official recognition and approval of his work. Mr. Collins nearly twenty-five years of platform experience m every state in the union and every province of Canada gives him the facility of driving home with elo quence and conviction the great facts of life and the dangers that strike at the foundations of truth, justice, freedom and morality. ' Mr. Collins is no pussyfooter in the treatment of his subject. He always calls a spade a spade and he never leaves an audience in any doubt as to just what he really means. He contends that today the conscience of the American people is on the shelf, dust covered and neglected, and he would arouse the people of the nation to a realization that no mat ter how great a material prosperity so-called can come to them it is too great a price to pay if the conscience of the people is to be stifled with indifference, self satisfaction and complacency. The public is invited to hear Mr. Collins. No admission no collection. This lecture will be given at the Parmele theatre at 3 o'clock on Sun day afternoon and will be well worth hearing.

Two Men Klled, Three Shot in a Family Quarrel Tragedy Climaxes Several Months Dispute of Sutherland People Divorce Suit is Cause. North Platte, April 14. Two per sons are dead, another probably fa tally wounded and two others are suffering minor gunshot wounds as the outcome of a fight at Sutherland, Neb., Saturday evening, the climax of a family dispute lasting several months. The dead are Charles Moore and his son, Frank Moore, 30, both of Dunning. Neb. O. A. Ridenour. Sutherland, is in a hospital hero with a gunshot would over the heart. His chances for re covery are slight, it is reported. John and Archie Ridenour, sons of O. A. Ridenour, have bullet wounds in their arms. Adren Ridde nour, another son, was unhurt, al though a bullet passed through his clothing. The sons are in their twenties. Wife Sued, Kept Children The fight was said by the Ride nours to have been a result of a divorce action. Mrs. Frank Moore is a daughter of O. A. Ridenour. She had been living with her parents since filing suit last fall. She retained custody of the three children. The Moores. accompanied by Hazel Keller, 119, domestic, had driven from Dunning to Sutherland Satur day. They drove to the Ridenour home about 7 p. m. and there de manded custody of the children, ac cording to stories told to Sheriff Salisbury. An argument followed. Frank Moore ar.d Archie Ridenour began scuffling. Charles Moore went to his car, obtained a shotgun and fired through a screen door at the elder Rrdenour, wounding him and John Ridenour, the sheriff w.s told. Nine Shots Fired After Archie Ridenour was shot by Frank Moore, the Moores started to return to the car, according to this account. Charles Moore was shot in the back of the head with a shotgun, which was held by Jotn Ridenour, Miss Keller told the sheriff. Frank Moore was shot a moment later, but the sheriff could not learn which man fired at him. Miss Keller, who had remained in the car throughout the visit and the battle, said nine shots were fired. Mrs. Frank Moore and the children were in the Ridenour home during the shooting. Girl Held as Witness She tcld the sheriff the Moores had demanded return of the children. Similar stories were told by the Ride nour brothers. Miss Keller said the Moores had not spoken about the children during the trip and that she was unable to hear the quarrel, which was inside the house. An inquest is to be held Monday afternoon at Sutherland. Miss Kel ler is held in the county jail mean while as a material witness. No oth ers are held. Mrs. Moore, in her suit against her husband, accused him of at tentions to a former domestic. The case was to have come to trial here in a few days. Sheriff Salisbury found butcher knives and a hammer in the Moore car. in addition to the guns. The oldest of the Moore children is 7. The youngest was born since the separation last fall.
