seat. ' ''With 'blanched face and trembling
hand Burgess stood for an Instant too ex
cited to let eome from la Hps the speech
which was demanding 'utterance. Finally
he gained sufficient possession of himself
to say:
Mr. Speaker: I think this resolution Is
out of older. It is not the province of this
house to condemn the. union of any good
republican when that action Is taken in
good faith, and we have no right to ad
vise such an Inquiry as this resolution
calls for. I move that the resolution be
laid on the table.
By this" time the house was thoroughly
excited and Burns of Lancaster was on
his feet. Burgess tried to forestall a
speech from his aggressive colleague, and
asked for some parliamentary privilege,
which Speaker Rouse ' said was not per
missible. Burns was nut to be muzzled.
He exclaimed:
Mr. Ppcnker: 'The 'policy of President
Roosevelt Is against pernicious activity in
politics pf government employes. The post
master of IJiieoln has been guilty of per
nicious uctlvlty, not for the benefit of the
republican party us a whole, hut for one
faction of the party and for outside Inter
ests. He has built up a powerful machine
and Is In the business of "pernicious" poll
tics. It is wrong. It Is contrary to the
president's wishes and the laws governing
the civil service. Mr. Hlzer had no right
to Interfere with the organization of this
house and he ought to be condemned for
what he did. ' This house ought to pass
this resolution and have this man answer
to Washington for the offense of using the
prestige and power of his high position to
promote th.iiltrlor Interests of the fac
tion he npWsnts and Is allied with.
Jackson Takes a Hand.
Jackson of Antelope then took a hand in
the debate, opposing the resolution. He
said:
Aa to this charge against the Lincoln
postmaster of -pernicious activity in the
xprakershlp contest, I want to say that
while I was not in the city during this
entire contest 1 have heard that other
federal employes were even more pernlcl
Uhly active than Mr. Sixer, and If this
evolution is to pass it should not be so
isrrow as to Include simply the postmaster
of Lincoln, but should apply to these others
us well.
During the roll call (he speaker.' Mr,
Rouse, took occasion to. say that while he
had been one of the participants in the
speakership fight he thought U but just
that the house excuse him from voting on
the resolution.

Douglas Delegation guilt
The Lancaster delegation, with the lona
exception of Burgess, was for the resolu
tion and voted against laying it on the
tame. The Douglak county delegation
split, Fltle, Lee and Tucker favoring the
resolution and voting against tabling It,
while Barnes, Muxen, Dodge, Clarke and
Foster voted to lay the resolution on the
tablee. Anderson was absent.
After the vote was taken many of the
members opposing the resolution, admitted
In the lobby of the house, that "the resolu
tion met the popular approval ot the house,
but was not politic."
Those who brought about this movement
to punish Bluer for using his government
position for tho promotion of the plans of
the political tuition to which hs belongs,
deelare the effort to bring Slier to an ac
counting will not be dropped and that the
president will yet be asked to take some
actloa.
This Is the snti-Siser resolution:
We move that this house condemn the
pernicious activity of the State Association
IL 1",J,"."?e' . hded by it president.
Mr. h.. K. Blzer, In participating In the late
organisation of the house. That we char
acterize it as debasing In Its influence and
against the dignity of the members of this
house and. further, that we commend the
president of this association to the postal
tlonr,m"t flt "ubJ,ct for Investiga
Want Barkett to Bsplala.
The resolution by Mersdlth of York to
have Mr. Burkett explicitly Inform the
hcuse as to bis views on the president's
proposed anti-railroad legislation struck a
responsive chord. In making his second to
this resolution, Perry of Furnas, said:
This resolution, if you will notice, does
net demand or rciuest Mr. Burkett to art
urcss mis noue. hut Invitee him, leaving
the matter entirely within his wish or
airretion. 1 think an impression has pre
vailed that Mr. Burkett was opposed to
mo presiueni in nis avowed policy of re
form and I, for one. cannot believe this to
be true. I think Mr. Burkett will support
the president and to do Justice to Mr. Bur-
aett i think this resolution ought to pass.
The resolution passed unanimously on a
viva voce vote.
This resolution reads:
Whereas. The American jwople, and the
peojiie in rsenrasKa especially, sre demand
Ing that the powers of the Interstate Com
meree commission be extended to give
such commission authority to enforce rea
sonable freight rate and to compel rall-
iohos 10 lurnisn netter service, in accord
W'lth the recommendation marie l,v Presi
dent Roosevelt in his recent message to
congress.
Resolved. That Hon. V.lmer J. Ttoritett
candidate before this legislature for elec
tion hs United States senator, be Invited to
expiess nis views to the house of repie
senatlves of the N'ebrnska legislature upon
una question oetore January 17, l!u5.
Faith In Congressmen.
When Richardson of Madison submitted
his resolution, declaring the legislature to
be in full accord with the president anil
demanding that "our" representatives at
Washington stand with him, Bartoo of Val
ley took exceptions, saying:
It seems to me we are rxnressln n. lurk
of faith In our representatives in con
gress. I have faith In these men and I
believe the urtat maioritv of the neonla
of the state have ami I believe It Is not
right or proper that this house puss such
a resolution, for It casts a shadow upon
the integrity of the men chosen to reure-
sent us at Washington. I am not in sm
pathy with this resolution and hope It will
not pass.
But when the time came to formally and
regularly register his voice against the
resolution Mr. Bartoo failed to take ad
vantage of it. No rotes were recorded In
the negative.
In reply to Bartoo, Burns of Lancuster
said:
The president very clearly and forcibly
enunciated his attitude toward the railroads
in his recent message and that message
has been read by our representatives at
Washington so that they are familiar with
what the president stands for and It is
only right and proper for us to say to
nose representatives, "you tell us now
you stand on these important Issues; are
ou witn the president or are you against
1m?" Why is this not the right course
to pursue? Have not the people of Ne
braska, by their enormous majority given
o the president at the last election, said
hey are in favor of the policies of the
Roosevelt administration and have they
not, therefore, clearly sot themselves on
the side with the president in this antl
rallroad legislation? We are representa-
ives or this peoplo. hy have we not,
her(fore. the rleht to demand from our
higher representatives an expression of
their intentions and views? It is right for
us and them to carry out the will of the
people who elected us and stand with Pres-
dent Roosevelt and since It has been re
ported that Mr. Burkett Is opposed to those
policies why shouldn t we nsK him to en
lighten us on this point? Why shouldn't
we know, definitely, where he stands?
Dodge of Douglas, In explaining his vote
In favor of the resolution, suld he thought
it wus entirely within the scope of pro
priety and he thought he house ought to
demand this expression from Mr. Burkett
before the legislature elected him to the
senato, and thus vested htm with power to
uphold or oppose the president.
Marks of Fillmore, at this juncture,
wanted to know if it was customary for tho
legislature to ask for expressions of this
kind from representatives In congress.
Speaker Rouse Informed him he thought it
wus no violation of traditions, and Murks
wus satisfied.
McClay of Lancaster and Barnes of Doug
las spoke In favor of the resolution, which
then was passed without a dissenting vote.
This resolution is as follows:
That the house of representatives of the
state of Nebraska, In Its Twenty-ninth ses
sion duly assembled, Is In full accord with
President Roosevelt's view on dealing with
corporations, as outlined n his last mes
sage to congress. And be It further
Resolved, That we request and demand
that our senators and members of congress
shall sustain the president and vote, if
necessary, to Increase the power and au
thority of the Interstate Commerce com
mlBlon, as conditions may require.

As soon as the house had convened for the
sfternoon session Speaker Rouse announced
his committees. In submitting these ap
pointments the Bpeaker suld;
In appointing theHe committees I have
not followed the lines of my own desires
nor yours. This, I found at the outset, to
be impossible. I have not made appoint
ments which personally I Bhould like to
have mude, and 1 have made apiointmcnts
which personally I did not want to make.
But I was guided by what I believed to be
for tho best Interests of all the people. I
appointed these committees so as, In my
Judgment, to subserve the best Interests of
the people, not of this or that, but every
section of the state. . I have endeavored to
make these committees working commit
tees, and If I have failed In a slnlu In
stance It was because I did not know and
not because I did not carefully weigh every
element to be considered In the perform
ance of this Important work. You remem
ber before undertaking this work I re
quested all the members to submit to me a
statement of their preferences as to com
mitteeships. Most of the members com
piled with this request. Some did not. All
these requests were carefully tabulated and
no request wus Ignored, though many were
not granted. AH, however, were consid
ered. Tnu will readily recognize the futil
ity of trying to grant every request. I will
v this, though, that wherever possible.
in consonance with what Impressed me as
for the best Interests or tne state, i granted
these requests. At any rate I gave my best
tho.icht and Judgment to this work and I
the formation of these committees will
carry out my desires of subserving the
best Interests OI ine people vi j-euiBna
Douglas county gets two chairmanships-
Lee of the committee on cities and towns
and Dodge on privileges and elections.
Dodge is the author of the first primary

who also has a primary election bill, Is on
this committee. Barnes and Anderson of
Douglas slso are on tho cities and towns
committee, which will have charge of the
bills affecting the changes In the charter
of Omaha as well as other cities and towns.
Of the other more Important committees,
Perry of Furnas Is chairman of the Judici
ary; Roberts of Dodge, railroads; Wilson
of Pawnee, finance, ways and means;
Windham of Cass, corporations; Douglas
of Rock, revenue and taxation; Detrlck of
York, claims; Stetson of Saline, deficiencies.
Wilson was chairman of the finance,
ways and means committee two years ago.
Davis of Buffalo, who Is a member of this
committee, was a member, and one of the
very active members, two years ago.
Douglas' appointment, as well aa that
of Wilson and Perry, was generally looked
for. Douglas was a member of the revenue
committee in the house and chairman of
the special Joint committee two years ago
that framed the revenue bill which is the
present law. Ho was as earnest an ad
vocate as this measure had. To the meas
ures from Douglas county providing for
the terminal taxation of railroads Mr.
Douglas was heartily opposed and he atill
Is opposed. He comes from that end of
the state which does not believe in allow
ing Omaha 'this power, and Douglas base
his opposition on ths general ground that
uch a law would divert money from the
ooffers of the country districts to the treua-
urles of the populous centers. Roberts,
chairman of the committee on railroads,
stands upon the same platform on this
proposition as Douglas and stood then
two years sgo. being at that time one ot
the ardent foes to the Omuha bills.
The members of the house two years air,

The elementary state certificate Issued by
the stste normal schools is limited from
one year to three years at the discretion
of the county superintendent Instead of be

state as under the existing statute. This
flight change in the elementary state cer

J. W. Crabtree. aa It no doubt will receive
the hearty approval of the principals of the
private Institutions that, were recognised
by State Superintendents Jackson and
Fowler.
The proposed bill does not contemplate
tho recognition of all prlvatj schools. On
this point It Is worded in the exact lan
guage of the existing statute.
The principal object of the proposed plan
Is to make a Uniform standard on which to
grant certificates In every county ln the

Rules Adopted Iloea Away with Two
Clerks.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Jan. 11. (Special Telegram.) him absent
to report what members of the committee
were present when the bill was acted upon,
made by Jones of Otoe, was referred to the
committee on rules.
The name of B. H. Gouldlng for clerk of
the committee of the whole and the name
of Attorney Hager of Lincoln for clerk of
the Judiciary committee were referred to
the committee on employes.
Jennings of Thayer offered th ' illowlng
resolution of respect to Senat it and
it was adopted:
It Is with a feeling of deep regret and
duty self-imposed to announce that Hon.
David Hart, senator-elect from the Tweuty-
seventn senatorial aistrict, is in and grave
doubts are entertained by his attending
physician and most intimate friends of his
recovery sufficient to occupy a seat ln this
body during the session.
'1 hererore l move, Mr. president, that a
committee of three be appointed by the
president to dratt suitable resolutions of
respecH and sympathy and that they be
SDreud uuon the record of the senate ami
a copy be sent to the family and that for
the present the secretary may pass his
name on roll cull of the senate and check
the forced haste In the preparation of ques
Hons and in the examination of the answer
papers. One extreme Is a too rigid exam
ination by some of tho county superin
tendents on questions that are sometimes
susceptible of more than one meaning.
The other extreme Is a laxness on the part
of county superintendents In granting cer
tificates without a careful examination.
Under the existing statute the state
superintendent appoints a committee for
the preparation of questions and examina
tion of papers for state certificates. It Is
now proposed to carry this plan even to
county certificates so far as the prepara
tion of questions and the examination of
papers Is concerned.
After an examination Is held the papers
are arranged by sheets or subjects and are
forwarded under seal to the state superin
tendent.
The new plan will Impose no additional
burden upon the teacher In the way of
fees, as the life of the certificates will be
lengthened on an average of two times Its
life under the existing statute.
No additional appropriation will be asked
for the state superintendent's office on ac
count of this messure.
Tho proposed plan has the unanimous
support of the county superintendents' sec
tion of the Nebraska State Teachers' asso
ciation. It Is one step at least toward the
plan for state examination of all teachers
so logically and eloquently 'argued before

versity of Nebraska.
