Never Shied Brick
but She Knows How
to FUlMan's Job
Miss Grace Berger never sided a brick
nor made a speech about taxation with
out representation. . She never wrote an
article purporting to prove that If Ne
braska women were given the "right"
to vote they soon would Improve their
economic condition until it would be as
good as that of women In Colorado, Utah
and other well governed statee, where
the votes of women have purified politics.
Without saying anything about It, and
taking It all as a matter of course, Mis
Berger Is filling a man' Job. She Is clerk
of the board of county 'commissioners,
Henry E. Ostrom, clerk of the board;
ha gone away for two or three weeks'
Vacation. Miss Berger, a clerk in County
Clerk Frank Dewey's office,' Is holding
down Henry's job while he ts gone. Any
body who has held this Job knows that
there's nothing easy and nothing simple
about it. It would be easy to write a
set of books on "Hew to Be a Clerk of a
Board of County ' Commissioners" and
then one would have to leave out a lot
of valuable hints. '
The fact that the commissioners trans
act business like lightning and resolution
and motions and roll call fly thick and
fast ought to be enough to ahow what a
clerk 1 "up against."

Stephens Wants to .
Take Away .Veto from
President's Powers
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. lfl.-(Spe-clal
Telegram.) Dan Stephens, successor
to tbe place held, in the house of repre
sentatives by the late Jams P. Latta of
the Third Nebraska' district, is vexed
because President Taft took occasion to
veto several Very bad tariff bills passed
by the democrats.
Today he Introduced a resolution pro
viding for a constitutional amendment
to: take away from the president the
power given him by that Instrument
,."I do this," said Mr. Stephens, "be
cause of the flagrant violation of the
eplrlt of our government by the president.
There are few Instances in our history
where the president ha used this power
of veto to more drastic extent than has
President Taft , During, this session of
congress he has vetoed numerous impor
tant tariff and supply bills passed by
the peoples' representatives. It la a, re
markable example of the manifest ten
dency of the executive branch of the
government to browbeat the peoples'
branch of the government by forcing
congress to enact legislation suitable to
hi wishes."
Mr. Stephens declared that the arm.
ganco of President Taft was hot the kind
that would be shown by "the man on
horseback" who 1 now heading the "bull
moose" movement and expressed his sin
cere hope that in he Interest of pro
tectlng the rights of the people, the veto
power should be taken away.
Of Colonel Roosevelt, ' the '"represen
tative from Fremont has these words to
'. "Should he,', ever become president
again, with his insane ambitions and his
despotlo tendency, God himself only
knows what will happen to the nnhii
It ha already drifted Into a monarchical
form of government and If this veto
power Is not taken from the president
it only need V man like Roosevelt to
trample Out the spirit of the republic,
which was conceived In the idea that
the voice of the majority was the voice
or tne government"

Judra Ben Baker, city corporation coun
sel, is seriously considering the, advisa
bility of bringing suit against King Ak-
Pnr-Ron or'aeekina an injunction enjoin
ing the special representatives of . the
Kingdom qf Qwvera from initiating mm
twice into that high order.
Bv Dure oversight, says the judge,
naid his initiation fee twice this year.
ftonrotarv Dad" Weaver was muoh
pleased with this display : of generosity
and notified the judge that the extra $10
would be used to good advantage. I V
The tudtfe consulted the stub of -his
check book and found the facts as set
forth truA. Immediately he called in his
pretty stenographer and sent the secre
tary to the king a caustic letter, at the
close qf which he cordially Invited the
return of his $10. .
He intimated, however, that if "Dad"
would see that he wasn't forced to go
through with the terrible initiation he
might keep the $10. But Inadvertently he
dropped the suggestion that another $10
would be forthcoming it it would give
the king's knights power or nerve to slip
hint through the initiation line.
Secretary Weaver is Considering the
proposition. He may Insist on the initia
tion, but may. give the judge a written
permit to dance twice as long as he ought
to at the Ak-Sar-Ben ball or drink twice
as much punch as he is entitled 'to;. ,
BANQUET FOR STATIONERS
Joy Attends ;LaBt Meeting of Na
tional Convention.
ALDEN TALKS OF FEATEMALISM
Saddest Illneae of . Sasaael .War of
Outoa 6dIt Vatoitard Ereat f
Whiah Mere Novelty at -
Field CIb.
With a banquet. thev.Uke of which has
not been seen by the .national body of
stationers,' the eighth annual convention
of the National Association of. Stationers
and Manufacturers was nrougnt to a
happy end laet night at the Field club.
Nearly J00 men and women surrounded
the banquet tables which were spread
through the oped hall jutting from the
west of the clubhouse. The service be
gan at 7 o'clock and by the time the
speeches and toasts had been finished
the chimes rang 11. . . , '
It was an Informal ' dinner and the
toast-answering and speech-making were
mostly , impromptu and extemporaneous,
a kind Of gathering which the eastern
delegates were heard to refer to after
wards as "typical of the west."
Only one incident came to mar ' the
Joy of the guests . assembled. . Samuel
Ward of Bostoa a prominent member of
the association, was attacked by aeute
Indigestion as he sat at the speakers'
table during the after dinner revelry. He
was taken from the banquet hall and
removed In an ambulance to the Rome
hote- Late last night it was said he
was not In a serious condition and would
be able to return to his home today It
was said he had undergone an operation
for an abscess on a leg . yesterday and
the attack last night was augu.ent?d
by the sickness attendant upon the opera
tion, x ...
Mayor Dahlman, A. W. Jefferls. Charles
A. Alden ani F. I. Elllck were the
principal speakers, all ot whom, with the
exception of Alden, made short speeches
In appreciation of the presence of . the
stationers and manufacturers in Omaha,
Alden was the . principal speaker of the
evening, delivering an address on "Fra
ternallsm." Fraternallam Defined. '
Fraternalism was defined by him as
faith, brotherly love and service and with
elaborate aubdeflnltlons of ; these . three,
he touched a re8ponslvevc.l)ord in every
one of his hearers and' left them with
something 'of profundity on which to
think.
James Logan, mayor of Worcester,
Mass., proved a witty toastmaster..with
an abundance of stories. He' was' Intro
duced to the banqueters by the retiring
president of the association, Milllngton.
Lock wood of Buffalo.
In turn the toastmaster Introduced the
new president, R. D. Patterson of St.
Louts, who made a short talk In appre
ciation of the honor which recently was
given him. .
An incident for , spontaneous applause
was the awarding of a loving cup to
Charles Wadham, winner of tbe golf
matches at Happy Hollow club on the
opening day of the convention.
Th banquet hall was beautifully deco
rated In huge American flags and palms
These symbols of patriotism surround
ing them inspired the guests to national
songs and anthems. Singing interpolated
the program throughout and' as a close
to the convention of 1911 the visitors
and home folk rode to tbe rhythmic
tlmta of Auld Lang Syne. .
