Although state and na tional laws have been passed making it wrong to kill the birds for their plumage, plume hunters nre constantly raiding the nests of the waterfowl and killing them for the sake of the prices the wings will bring. Thus a coustnnt watch is necessary, Patrol boats are constantly hovering nlong the shores of the reservations, and more than one pitched battle has been fought to save the egret or gulls from slaughter. In Florida, one of the best game wardens of the Audubon society was killed by bird butchers. If those who call the robin tho thief of their fruit, and hate him for his early morning raids on their berries, would realize that the little fruit spoiled Is a light dessert for tho hugo quantity of insects killed before tho fruit was touched, then their feelings would be more kindly. Cutworms and crancfles, which do greatjiarm to grain crops, arc favorite foods for robins, while leaf-bottles, vine-worms, etc., nro eaten In great numbers. Exchange. Oh I Freddy, Freddy.

II y a voto of 17 to 12 tho stnto senate postponed Indefinitely House Roll No. 297, Intended to stop sales of cigarettes to minors by logallz ing sales to adults. Practically every senator Indulged In tho debate, which was centered largely on tho matter of tho injurious naturo of tho "demon clgaretto" rather than on the subject of writing a law that would bo enforceable. Tho bill was defeated by tho voto of senators aftor ono of tho most lively debates on any question this year. Senator Bushoe, who favored tho bill, said that ho and others had boon accused of being Influenced by tho "tobacco" trust. Dusheo informed Uio senate that ho had never been ap proached by any ono who wantod him to voto for tho bill, except two mem bers of tho lower house. He then added that the only peoplo ho had seen lobbying on tho bill wore thoso opposed to it, some of whom wero not citizens of this stnto. Lucy Pago Qa3ton, head of the Na tional Antl-dgarct league, was on tho floor of tho senate, along with other wclfaro and church workers. Mrs. Gaston several days ago before tho committee said if the legislature would leuve the law as it is, that sho would como to tho stato and enforce tho law. The vote would indicate that sho has convinced several of tho oldor mom ebrs of that body that this could be done. QEORQE C. SNOW 0 Mr. Snow Is serving his first term In the House, represenUna Dawei and Sioux counties. His home Is at Chadron where for twelve years he has been editor and owner of the Chadron Journal, the oldest paper In Nebraska west of Valentine. Mr. Snow Is a member of the following com mittees In the House) Judiciary, Em ployees, Prlntlnn and Supplies, special committee Investldatlno Board of Control, and special committee on the Code Dill. Tho senate in committo of tho whole advanced to third reading Senato Pilo No. 200 introduced by tho judiciary committee which defines "criminal syndicalism" and prohibits tho advo cacy, teaching or affirmativo sugges tion of crlnio or physical or political revolution, or for profit. It also pro hibits assemblage for thoso purposes, and makos It unlawful for an owner of property to permit a room or building to bo used for such meetings. The bill is directed at I. W. W. activities though certain soctiona of it, espe cially the provision doflnlng "syndi calism" as tho doing of any act of physical violence, tho destruction of or damage to property, or injury to any persons" are also applicable fo strikes. Foar of farmers that House Roll No. 480, a pure seed bill introduced by McLaughlin of Hall county, would act to the advantage of mail order houses In othor states led to tho kllllug of tho bill by the lower house. Tho bill provided strict supervision of tho salo of seeds by tho state food, dairy and oil commissioner. Seed houses of the state asserted that its provision wore arbitrary and unworkable. Thoy wild it would result in driving thorn out of business through tho competition of outsldo firms not under Its regula tion. The state senate adjourned ono day in order that its members could ac cept tho invitation of the Omaha Chamber of Commerce to bo its guest at luncheon and aftorward at tho auto mobile show. Tho lower house de clined u similar Invitation, Tho Joint commltteo of tho legis lature, appointed to Investigate tho stsito board of control, after making trips to tho various state Institutions, and holding many secret hearings at tho Llndoll hotel, gavo out an an nouncement that a public hearing will bo hold Immediately. A record has boon made of all tho testimony of fered at tho secret hearings, and, ac cording to memberfl of tho commltteo, will bo offered at tho public hearing, except such as tho commlttoo thought best to eliminate on account of "un fouiulud chargcH which had boon made ngUnst tho board." Apparently members' of the Nebraska legislature will be busy during the I close of tho session. Tho rial big bills have yet to be considered and disposed of. Very close to tho top of the list of bills on third rending 'in tho houso is tho llyrum.IIardln primary election bill, which provides that voters cast their ballots for candidates as usual, but unless a candidate gets a mnjorlty at tho primary he will have to light for tho position in n convention with a few oxcoptlons and tho bill, In Us ex ecution, Is looked on as a big stop to wards restoring tho convention s torn, strong opposition to It exists, and somo of tho opponents nro of tho opinion that It will not bo able to muster flfty-oito votos. Tho bill Is a long ono and tho system created is quite complicated. It is nrgucd In Its behalf that tho prlmarmy ballots aro too long and thnt tho voters want a change. Another virtuo claimed for It Is that It does away with minority nominations. Another headllnor on tho program is tho two big road bills. Tho houso commltteo has done a trcmondoua amount of work In getting those into shapo. They hnvo held hearings ga loro. Tno bill provides for a sstem of stnto highways to bo constructed undor tho stato engineer, and for the malntonnnco of tho roads most of the automobile tax, which Is to be largely Increased, will bo used in the future. Tho bills seek to avoid tho criticism of taking away from counties tho con trol of their roads, and has what its backers insist aro roasonnblo divisions of authority that will make for ofll cloncy and make co-oporatlon possible. Tho bill contemplates tho construc tion of something llko C.000 miles of road in tho state, county seats bolng all connected by tho system. In tho main those are to bo dirt roads, per manent roads bolng constructed only where abutting property owners Join In tho Improvement. It is tho most ambitious attempt yet mado to work out a system of state highways that will bo well built and well kopt. Tho lower house found ttsolf In tho embarrassing position ono day of having more votes cast on a measure than there wore members present. Speaker pro tern Fults stood by the clerk's count, assorting that some membors probably followed thoir cus tom of voting both ways. He rofused to re-open the question for a roll cnll. Tho question nrpso in nn effort to resuscitate Senate File 2G, by Hoed, forbidding the remarriage of di vorced persons within two years after tho granting of tho decroe. The announced voto was 4G to 34, in favor of sustanling tho committee's action against tho bill, although there were only sixty-four membors prosont at tho time. Tho houso commltteo on tho gover nor's "codo bill" has divided tho big bill dnto soctlons, two membors of tho committee to study each section. Tho division follows: Agriculture, Wil liams and Hardin; finance, Rodman and Hostetlor; trade and commorce, Axtell and Reynolds; public wolfare, Jonison and Hardin; public works, Mears and Snow; labor, Larsen nnd J. Rold Green. II. R. 85, by Grozlor, for official tests for gas, gasoline, kerosene or othor liquid fuel engines and to com pel maintcnanco of adequato service stations for snmo, was recommended by the commltteo of tho whole of tho senate for passage. For halt an Hour, tho lower houso considered Houso Roll 139, Larson's bill establishing a minimum wago commission to fix minimum wngos for women and minors in all Industries. Tho bill had smooth sailing until, after it had boon perfected by various amendments, Larson moved that it bo recommended for final passage Jerry Howard thon moved to substltuto tho provision of his own minimum wago bill, establishing a flat minimum scale, which was killed In itfl original form by an overwhelming voto sovernl weeks ago. Much to tho surpriso of Howard, as woll aB everyone else, the house approved Howards' substltuto, 21to 1G, with over half tlio members not voting. Larson, disgusted by tho turn of events, thon moved to kill tho now bill, which tho house did with considerable hilarity. Tho result Is that no minimum wage legislation will bo enacted by this legislature. Senato Fllo No. 140 by Peterson, which amends tho workmon's compen sation law, was reported out of tho judiciary commltteo somewhat chang ed from tho original draft, which pro vldod for n 75 por cont schodulo of salary for Injured workmen during in capacity Tho bill as amended pro vides for a schodulo r 08 2-3 per cont. Tho proposed law provides for in creasing tho maximum weekly allow ance from $12 to JIB, specifying priv- lieges by which tho workman may select ills own physician, nnd provid ing that tho employer shall pay the attornoy'B feoa for tho plaintiff in any suit for damages arising from tho ro fusal of tho employer to ndjust tho claim for injury. The stato sonato divided Tuoaduy into n debntlng society, composed of business men on ono sldo, nnd law yers on tho othor, with tho exception of Senator Wcavorllng, who joined the business mon, and Senator Roed who Joined tho lawyers. Tho question was on concurring In tho committee report to Indefinitely postpono Houso Roll .07, which provided for only 7G per cont oxomptlon of a debtor's wages from garnishment Instead of 90 por cont, as tho law now stands, Tho house had passed tho bill, Tho bill wan kill oil by the senato by a voto of 18 to 10.
