-" Warden Explains Stand.
. Here's what Warden Fenton thiuki

' When I took charge of the peni
tentiary cigarcta and .dope were at
regular as meals, I first pet th
lutrtus n the dupe peddling Then
1 turned my attention to igrett.
lh trouble t if you In them
smoke at all they smoke them to en
cess. Easily 100 men were yellow
in complexion, their fingers were yel
low and the cigaret cough wai heart
in the cell rooms at every hour ot
the night.
"I made smoking cigarets a ml
drmeanor. Men caught smoking
them were punished. Cob pipe and
tobacco were permitted. A few are
caught occasionally smoking cigarcta
rolled in toilet paper, Uut the ma
jority are smoking cob pipes "d
their complexion and' health are
better. , 1 .
Opposes Medical VUw.
"Furthermore.' Ill take lue with
.mtain medical authorities who claim
toilet paper cigarcta are harder oh
the lungs than the real cigarets."
Superintendent Gua Miller of Haw
thorne was absent today. But here's
what Deputy Superintendent Ander
son, an A. K. F. man, thinks about
cigaret smoking by, inmates ol Haw.
thorne: i '
"Superintendent Jtillrr works on
the theory that a man's cell W his
castle and he can smoke what he
pleases in it in the way of tobacco.
If he prefers cigarets, well and good.
Men On Honor. v
"Our aVnce isrt't up yet and every
man in the institution is ' on his
honor; We went them to he happy
and happy men have a better sense
of honor than unhappy men.
"They'll smoke 'em anyway anl
better have them complying with the
law of the raetitutidir by smoking
'em than breaking the law bymok-
ipg 'em on the sly. Then, too, I
was in the trenches and I know what
hunger there is in a man's heart fur
cigarets. "
Figures compiled today show that
if the J00 convicts in the suit pm
tentiary were given rations of two
packages of real cigarets a day It
would cost the state approximately
7,000 a year.

Extra Session
Of Legislature
Is Advocated
Hall County Lawmaker Want
ExpeiiaelfM Meeting to
Reduce Municipal
Expenditure.
Grand Mand, Neb., Nov, 4,-iSpe-cial
Telegram. A special eion cf
the legislature, the members to
volunteer their services and to pay
their own expenses, i suggetted by
Representative John Meridian of
this county, in communications with
ether members ot the assembly, Rep
resentative McClellan declares that
his interviews with the farming popu
lation, etpeciatly, and with taxpayers
generally, lead him to believe it is
high time to retrench in state, county,
city, school and all other public af
fairs. Mr. McClellan is of the opinion
that every activity and expenditure
on the state capitol, on road and in
every other activity that can be post
ioncd ought to be stopped at once,
lie believes that the nutter of reduc
ing salaries ought also to be taken
up. Farmers, he declares, are scarce
ly able to pay their taxes at present
and he can see no possibility tor any
material improvement in this situa
tion for another year.
He calls attention to the fact that
the taxes in such counties as Hall are
fouling in so .lowly that even war
rants for current expanse are being
held up, and he feels that unU there
is a material ivdueiion in public ex
penditure! immediately, iu.ieal of
contemplated increases, whether this
be in state, county, city or school
affairs, many a farmer, tradesman
and small home owner is running the
prospect of luting his property.
The representative hopes that such
a move taken by the legislature will
lead to wholesome economies all
along the line, regardless of the ex
tent in which the stale itself would
Le enabled to retrench.

Expose Methods
In Stock Sales
Farmer Testifies Former
Ceresco Danker Got Dig
Commissions on Sales.
Lincoln, Nov. 4 (Special.) An
other expose of the method rurtued
in sell ng stock in Nebraska in cer
tain stock selling corporations came
to light in the Lancaster county dis
trict court when Charles Huffman,
Bennett, Neb., farmer, testified that
Charles Maixner, an officer ot the
Bankers' Auto Insurance company
of Lincoln, received pii.SQ for the
sate cf a share of stock, ranging in
pricn from 9100 to $150 a shsre.
Maixner is now in the penitentiary
for alleged mishandling of funds In
the t'cresco (Neb.) bank of which
he was cashier. Dr. E. P. Dwig
gin, former president of the defunct
American Slate bank of Lincoln,
who was aocitc with Maixner in
the Hankers' Auto Insurance con
pan y, was arrested in San I-raneisco
today on a charge of borrowing
money from the American State
bank while an officer of the bank.
Huffman was awarded a judgment
of $7,196.61 against the insurance
companv on the ground that the
value oi the stock sold to him wa
misrepresented.
It was a desire to delve into the
"Inside workings" of other corpora
tion which existed in Lincoln and
which used somewhat similar
mrlhorfs in selling t'tk which
prompted Attorney Guicm! Clar
rnce A- Davis to ak dr 4 grand
jury which, for the time being, has
been denied by the Lancaster rouuty
judges on technical grounds.
