Has a Greater Vision Seme time since, J. J. Meier, the druggist and a general rustler for the advancement of Weeping Water, was instrumental in the organizing of a Brotherhood, composed of the male members of the Congregational church and upon being fully organiz ed the group put on one of the most f-uciesKfol get-together meetings ever provided in these parts. Jost now, the Brotherhood move is spreading andj nearly every church in the county is ( cooking to perfea a like organization. It is t'ur.d that much better work can 1 e acccmplirdied through this medium than in any other way. While it looks like a big undertaking, we know it can i.o done and soon every church in the county will have a perfectly or ganized and efficiently functioning Brotherhood to heip shoulder some of the church responsibilities that in the tasi wyic leu laige.y iu tuc a.iUu3j Los Anseles, Dec. 2.

Indications that organized dry fac tions may unite in an effort to drive a local option system through the next state legislature were seen in t a report of a resolutions committee at a meeting of dry leaders held at Lincoln Tuesday. The committee recommended that the question of legal liqtior be sub mitted to the electorate biennially at the time of the general election of state officers. The committee's report made no mention of a referendum, which had been threatened by dry forces, to defer return of legally-recognized liquor to Nebraska for many months. Points in Doubt. Following in the wake of hot argu ments on state liquor stores as against a possible referendum, the recommendations left the chief points cf controversy still in doubt. "We have a situation in the state whereby some form of regulation for the liquor traffic has been made necessary as a result of the recent vote," the committee reported. "Although reiterating our faith in prohibition, we advocate the fol lowing provisions to be considered by the legislature: "Biennally, at the time of the gen eral election of state officers, the questions should be submitted to popular vote, whether liquor shall b. sold in any county and whether it shall be sold in any township. The result of the vote would determine the policy in that county or town ship. Against "Ads." "No sale of liquor or attempt to open new territory to the sale of li quor should be furthered by adver tising, i "Provision should be made for funds available for payment of dam ages to persons or property of imio- j cent sufferers from liquor. "The legislature should appropri ate money for state-sponsored edu cational articles setting forth the harmful effects of alcohol on the body." Those dry leaders who seemed de termined to invoke a referendum and a more liberal group, desirous of securing a system of control best suited to temperance, engaged in a clash at the outset of the confer ence. Asks Referendum. Rev. Ben F. Wyland, crusading minister of First Plymouth Congre gational church of Lincoln, led sen timent for a referendum. He urged that drys direct their fight toward preventing enactment of a control plan carrying the emergency clause. "That would give us 9 0 days in which to secure a referendum," he said. His proposal was promptly attack ed by O. W. Osnes, an Omaha at torney, who warned against and pol icy "which will alienate the many persons who are dry, but who voted wet because they felt that prohibi tion could not be enforced." Opposes Slocumb Law. "Our fight is for temperance," Csnes said. "That cause can best bs aided by putting the state of Nebraska in the liquor business." Osnes said he opposes the plan for re-enactment of the old Slocumb law, which sought control through high taxes, and severe penalties. Elmer E. Thomas of Omaha, for mer federal prohibition chief in Ne braska and long a dry crusader, had suggested the Slocumb lav.- as the best solution of the problem. He also said "the wets" should bo permitted to have "any system they want, for we will have prohibition back in a few years." R. P. Hutton. Anti-Saloon learrue j leader, said: "It is evident that the i Nebraska legislature this winter will i either re-enact the old Slccumb-Ne-braska law, or will enact a new Mullen-Omaha law. "As between the two, we prefer the Slocumb law." Iva Innis, president of the Ne braska W. C. T. U., pledged her or ganization to fight against any com promise with liquor, "either through licens2 or any other restrictive meas ure ether than absolute prohibition." She advocated a law providing that total abstinence be required of all air pilots, train operators, auto-(ill mobile drivers and all "who are it; ar, y way responsible for the lives of others." Another state meeting on a larger scale was scheduled for January 16, with state representatives and sen ators invited. Final agreement on control proposals is to be attempted at that time. SEEK TO ORGANIZE WORKERS R. A. Wilson, of Omaha, has been i in the city for the past several days on the mission of organizing the piledrivers engaged in the river work, into the Carpenters and Join ers union which is affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. j Mr. Wilson wishes it stated that ( his work is purely that of the labor, organizer and he has no connection j with meetings or organization of groups cf the unemployed. Mr. Yv'ilson is expecting to hold a meeting here cn Friday night cf the pile drivers and carpenters to discuss tho union organization. AOP1 P C la A. A. A.

A proposal to re-j turn to work 100 of the striking rtreet car employes of the Los An geles railway company within ninety days was rejected with a storm of I mother. Mrs. Neihart was born but boos and hisses by the union men : a few miles from where Elmwood here. The proposal grew out of a ' now stands. Mr. Neihart is an tx conference between P. A. Donoghue, ! cellent jeweler and was for eight of the national labor relations ! years president of the Jewels asso- board; Samuel M. Hasking, president of the railway company, and R. D. Armstrong, international vice pres ident of the Amalgamated Associa tion of Street and Electric Railway! Employes. ' "This leaves us exactly where we ! were when this situation developed i ten days ago," said Armstrong, in commenting on the union's rejection. CHANGES PRESS DECISION Washington. The labor relations board temporarily, at least, set aside its decision ordering the San PYan cisco Call-Bulletin to reinstate Dean 3. Jennings, a rewrite man who claimed he was forced to resign be cause of newspaper guild activity. The beard, in a brief statement, said the case had been reopened at the request cf Blackv.eil Smith, act ing general counsel for the NRA. Monday night the labor hoard an nounced unless the paper, a Hearst interest, reinstated Jennings within 10 days it would be cited to the NRA compliance division and to the justice department.

Mrs. Neihart well remembers the seorge cf grasshoppers which visited this section in 1S79 and also having to See to Plattsmouth when the In- dians were on a hostile raid.

Last Check-up on Corn-Hog Contracts. Field supervisors will start work ing the county this week on the final check on corn-hog contracts. The contract ends December 1 and com pliance must be made by that date. The last check up will consist chiefly of a count of hogs on hand and these that have been sold since the last compliance which wa3 in September. Producers will need the receipts of the hogs sold and have their 'Triple A books up to date when the supervisor arrives. Producers are also asked to make a statement as to the number of acres of wheat sown this fall and what disposition will be made with it next spring. This last compliance will be hur ried along and is expected to be com pleted by December 15. This will leave the decks clear for the new contract which is expected by that time. 4-H Winners to Chicago.

Unless they are destroyed we may look for another serious outbreak next summer. Ow ing to the fact that the leaves re mained on the trees later than usual this fall, most of the bugs had gone into winter quarters before the h av s fell and therefore most of the;.i are? found in grasses in the open country and very few are harbored under piles of leaves in timber and uioi.g he-dgo rows. Became the country in general was grazed so closely last summer, tho patches cf tall gra s are much more limiu-d than usual and the chinch bugs concentrated inn smaller areas making burnins; much easier than in normal years. In order to do a thorough y b of destroying the bugs, burning hh-:u!d be done completely always burning against the wind to do a good job of burning all grass and trai-h down to the ground. Fence rows, road sides, and old sod not burned over last year are most severely infested. Mr. Bare reports finding 1C5 live chinch bug3 fn one bunch of grass along a roadside in Sarpy county. He says he has found very few bugs under leaves in timber or in clun.ps of buck brush, although the.-.e, also, should be burned if practical. If the weather permits pn bubly the second or third wetk in iKcrni ber will be designated as the week for co-operative buhning of waste lands in Cass county. It does little good for the individual farmer t burn the grass on his land if his neighbors do not burn their grass also, since the adult bugs which come out in the pring are capable of flying several miles. Therefore, a gen eral community burning is urged. Mr. Bare reports that he has s- cur'-cl the support of the railroads in burn ing off the right of ways through counties in which there has been a general burning-off campaign. A no tice will be sent every farmer in liir county regarding the date the burn ing can-paign is to be conducted. Corn-hog community committee men have been enlisted to take charge cf the campaign in th; ir pre cincts. For further information stT these men or inquire at the office.
