Too Many Laws,
Omaha Attorney
Tells Bar Meet
Causing Contempt and Dure
pect, Omaha Fmident
Tells Opening Session of
Bar Association.
Alfred G. Ellirk o( Omaha, in de
livering his annual aJdr n preti
o'ent of the Nrbrasks Stule liar as
sociation, in annual convention here
csterday. declared tint "multitudin
ous so-called regulatory laws affect
inj all hranclie of private enterprise
and private and pcrxonal conduct"
were maintained at "stasgering ex
pense to the taxpayer and in most
instance! with inly indifferent re
sults." After refrriing to what lie said
the Declaration uf Independence and
Htate ron.tttutiorn term 'our un
aNenaMe rights," Mr. tlliik said
that "thre laws are so numerous
that not even the lawyers can know
them or sometime even find them
in the ftatutebooks, and the ordi
nary citizen lias very little knowl
edge of their nature or even tneir
existence.
"As a coiisriiticnrc." . said he,
"manv are continually ignored,
causing a contempt and disrespect,
not only for these laws, nut lor law
enforcement Generally. Kach Iceis-
l.itive session is marked by contests
among solons to sec which one can
introduce and secure the passage of
the largest number of bills, most of
which are designed to correct some
particular orivate wrone. and have
no function in the general rehenic of
government.
Too Ready Surrender.
"I have no quarrel with any par
ticular law, hut as a lever of Jiberty
I fear the tendency toward a too
ready surrender of our natural
rights. I do not agree with those
extreme advocates of personal liber
ty who favor the widest measure of
license to the individual to do as he
wishes, nor with those other ex
tremist who would hold to the most
puritanic standards.
"While 'this question, as lias been
often said, is in the first instance one
of political philosophy and of law,
there 'must be some middle ground
where the splendid and cherished in
dividuality of our citizenship will en
. joy the widest latitude for develop
ment, restrained only to the extent
that in the exercise of our natural
right we do not directly infringe
upon the rights of others."
, Expressing the belief that a closer
AMnS9,,n rii ,ti har nf Mrhraska
means a better bar, and one in
which the mass of the people, and
especially of litigants, will have
creater confidence, the special coin-
, mittee on bar organization yesterday
urged upon the association the prin
ciple of an integrated bar, but re
frained from outlining the particu
lar methods by which such a result
could be obtained.
An Integrated Bar. -In'
the.light of action heretofore
taken by the association, the com
mittee states, it is of its belief that
the association is in favor of the
principle of an integrated bar, but
as the association . already has de
clared in favor of the principle of a
more cohesive organization of the
fied' in presenting a bill that dealt
only with the broader outlines of a
reorganization. The committee left
the details to be worked out by the
association as a body or through an
.other channel or committee.
"Attention is especially directed
to the provisions of the bill relating
to the formulation of the rules of
professional conduct and also in re
lation to requirements governing ad
mission to the bar of the state,' the
committee, of which Judge Lincoln
Frost of Lincoln is chairman, says.
"The proposed bill does not at
tempt to leave final action in these
respects to the Nebraska Bar asso
ciati6n the association will simply
make recommendations to the su
preme court. Nothing would be
"final until the high court, had acted.
"The board of commissioners
would be granted authority to institute-
and prosecute proceedings for
the misconduct of any attorney, but
the supreme court would necessarily
pass upon the case. It appears that
these safeguards should meet the
most serious objections urged to the
bill recently defeated."
Discusses. Property Law.
The committee rehearsed the pro
gram of organization from the time
it was first called to the attention of
the association in the 115 meeting
up to and including the 19-0 meet
ing, which indefinitely postponed the
bill introduced before that meeting.
' "The Nebraska lawyer who looks
upon his profession nor as a mere
money making pursuit but as an
avenue to public servicehas an es
pecial concern that the land law of
the state be made as simple, logical
and efficient as possible, as the rules
of law that deal with the acquisition,
holding and disposition of real es
tate are of great social importance.
Prof. Henry H. Fester of the Col
lege of Law, University of Nebraska,
declared yesterday in an address be
fore the association. His subject was
on "Pitfalls in the Property Law of
Nebraska." ' '
He sucreestcd that the Bar asso
ciation could be of great service to
the 'state by appointing a committee
tA act in conjunction with the su
preme court in making recom
mendations to the legislature for
needed reforms.

By RUBY AYRES.
(CsUtas4 Trm Twtarda;.)
There wi t profound silence, thin
Anne tpoke or the first time.
"And whit about mtt What about
me?" ihe aiked. Her voice was flat
and exprewionleii, but her eyes were
piteous ts she looked t the Fortune
Hunter. "What is to become of
me?" ihe id aetin.
The hot blood beat Into his face;
he took quick step toward her
and then checked himself.
"I'd ive my life for you," he
raid. "If only there wn something
I could do to undo what has hap
pened 1 If only you'd just say you
forgive met If only you'd y that
you don t il together hate and ue
spine me!" Hi voice wa hoare
and labored; and when (he made no
answer he turned awiy with a get
ture of utter despair.
Presently she (poke again in cold,
difficult tones, a if she were slowly
coming back to a keener realization
of all that this meant to her.
"And what am I to say to every
one? hat will they think ot me
not to have known? To have let
you a stranger,. a man 1 know
nothing about make love to me;
lie to me" she broke off chokingly;
she beat her hand together. "Oh,
if I had only died before this thing
happened!
The Fortune Hunter strode acros
to her then? he dragged her hands
away from her face, forcing her to
look at him.
"And is my love nothing to you?"
he asked. "Have you no pity for
me? You believed in that other man
who was not worth a thought or
a tear; you waited 10 year for him,
and he lied to you and deceived you
a thousand times more than I have
ever done. He only pretended to
care (or you, whilst I
Her pale face blazed with sudden
passion. : .
"You dare dare to say a word
against him I" she broke out sob
bing. "He was the man I loved.
He was coming home to me when
you you " She could not go
on.
"He was coming home to you be
cause he could do nothing else," the
Fortune Hunter said with cruelty
born of his pain. "Why should I
hide the truth of what he was when
I've got to be damned in your eyes
for the rest of my life? Ask your
uncle. Ask Mr. Harding. He paid
John Smith to go abroad when he
came out of prison because he hoped
you would forget him. The man
didn't want you."
She closed her eyes and swayed
a little in his merciless grasp.
"You've never once told me the
truth yet," she said with white
lips.
He let her eo-so abruptly that
she almost fell. He began pacing
up and down the room like a mad
man; he hardly seemed to realize
that she was suffering tpo, and that
he was stabbing her afresh with
every word he spoke.
So vou married him, he broke
out mockingly. "You cared enough
for him to marry him, and vet that
couldn't keep him straight. Crooked
through and through worse than I
am, I tell you, he went on raving,
hardlv conscious of What he said.
till 'suddenly, in his desperate pacing
to and fro, he turned sharply and
came face to face with her again.
Then suddenly his mood changed;
he gave a little choking cry and fell
on his knees before her, encircling
her with his arms. :
"Forsrive me. Forgive me! he
stammered. "Bad as I am, you did
love me for a little while. Forgive
me, Anne, for.' Gods sake.
But even as he made his frantic
appeal he knew its futility. She did
not move; sne jusi siooa iookihb
down at his "oassionate face with
eyes of cold judgment. ' Presently he
rose and stood uetore ner, passion
fallen from him. a curiously old,
beaten look in his eyes. Then sud
denly he laughed.
"Well, what shall L do .' . .it s tor
you to say. ' -
She put her hand to her forehead
as if trying vainly to collect her
thoughts; she felt as if she were in
the throaes of some terrible night
mare; it was only when the Fortune
Hunter turned to the door" that she
put out her hand . to stop him.

and after a long moment she said

before you gor
He raised his head, his face twitch- :

replied.
She turned away, one hand rest
ing on a chair back to steady her
self, and : some - seconds passed De
fore she spoke again:
"That ohotodraph, the one I pick
ed up it was his then?"
Yes.
"She-hc what did she tell you
that day in London ' about him?"
The Fortune Hunter made no at
tempt to answer, but his silence was
eloquent, and she drew a long sob
bing breath of humiliation.
"You see I've got to believe you
now," she said painfully. "There's
nobody else who knows the truth."
She turned round slowly and looked
at him. "Who who are you real
ly?" she asked.
The color rose to his haggard face
in dull patches, but he answered un
hesitatingly: "I always understood that my
name was Jerningham. It was the
name my mother adopted when she
left my father 27 years ago. She
took me to Australia, and she died
when I was 15 or 16, I forget which
I turned vagabond then; I've tramp
ed the world and lived on my 'wits.
4ut I've never done anything I'm
ashamed of until I came here.
She asked a broken question.
"And now what will yu do now?" j
He tried to answer, but at first j
he could not trust his voice, then j
he shrugged his shoulders.
"I wl go back to the road
when they let me out. I suppose"
Her eye dilated. "What do you
mean when they let you out?" she
asked, fearfully. "You mean theyll
send you to prison again 1 Oh! I
can't I couldn't bear it."
He smiled faintly. "It will be the
first time I have ever been in pris
on," he said quietly. She clasped
her band in an abandon of feir.
"Oh. so. please ro. before anyone
can stop you! For my sake oh,'
I htg of youT she pleaded. i
The Fortune Hunter looked at;
her with a strange expression in hi
haitdtiiuie rye.
'lor your ake!" he echoed
laillv. "Does it matter to you at
all, then, what become of me?"
But even while he s;.ktd he knew
that it was of how to save her pride
that the was thinking, not of how
to save hi honor
IJd she never really loved him,
or had it alway been just the
glamour of romance that had de
reived her? Whichever it was, he
knew he could not blame hrr, al-
thousli he would have uiven hi soul
at that moment for one kind word.
one look of forgiveness.
And in the silence that followed
she broke out again, at if thought
were whipping her with thongs of
lire:
"Oh, why didn't I guess! Why
didn't I guess! It seem now that
it was alway there for me to ee
so many little things! A hundred
times I felt that things were not
right; and then because you
seemed to love me lie cried out
at that:
"1 diil hne you! I do love you!
There has never been any woman
in my life but cmi! Some day
vou'll know I buoke the truth in that,
at least! Oh, my dear!" lie almost
broke down. He at beside her as
she turned away from him, shiver
inc.
"Just say you forgive me, it's all
I want. -I'll go, and you shall never
sec me again if you'll just say you
forgive me! Just sav that you don't

Favors Sale of
Beer and Wine
Governor Asked to Call Spe

Copy of Resolution.
Sent to Harding.
Chicago, Dec. 29. By a, vote of
52 to 6 the Chicago city council yes
terday adopted a resolution ran
(ng on the national and state to
amend the prohibition laws to permit
the sale of "wholesome beer and
wines." The resolution, introduced
by Alderman A. J. . Cermak, asked
the governor to call a special session
of the legislature. A copy of the
resolution was ordered sent to the
president of the United'States and to
the speaker of the house of represent
atives. - 1
Alderman Cermak, speakiuij for the
resolution, said that there is more
drunkenness now than there ever was
and that drug stores have become
saloon., "hi 1919, six months of
which (Were wet and the remainder
dry," he said, "there were 704 pris
oners in the Bridewell. In 192f there
were 1,075, and today there are 1,400
prisoners."
The city recently asked for an ap
propriation for 200 additional police
men to enforce the dry laws. Alder
man Cermak said he would not vote
for the additional expense, "I will
not vote for the employment of men
to enforce a law which was put into
effect by the ' government," he de
clared, "that is making spies and de
tectives for, the government. They
should be told to employ their own
enforcement officers. Do you believe
liquor is being imported into this
country without the knowledge of the
government?
The resolution states that a gen
eral survey of conditions throughout
the country suggests a liberal modifi
cation of the liquor laws.
