WHATS DOING IN
THE LEGISLATURE
(Continued from page 1.)
147, the uniform narcotic drug act
passed at the request of federal
authorities; H. R. <50, with the
emergency clause, to outlaw suits
brought against counties under
township organization for the pur
pose of forcing a division of county
road tax funds hitherto collected,
and giving townships, villages and
second class cities the right to
share therein. A companion bill
making the same provision as to
cities of the first class is now be
fore the senate. H. R. <50 means
that hereafter counties under town
ship organization and those having
the commissioner system will all be
on the same basis in regard to the
expenditure of road funds for the
benefit of all parts of the county,
while in the meantime they are
relieved of any burdens arising
from past failure to divide the
funds.
Passed by the house and now be
fore the senate is a bill to discon
tinue after July 1, 1937, use of 10
per cent of fishing and hunting
license fees for state park purposes.
The house also adopted a resolution
* urging congress to establish a na
tional park along the North Platte
river from Bridgeport to Guernsey
Lake in Wyoming.
The feeders’ uct giving caretak
ers of livestock a first lien on the i
stock to assure payments for ac
counts due, has been signed by the
governor.
S. F. 10 which would transfer the
* tare and custody of the capitol
building and grounds from the
state land commissioner to the gov
ernor, appears headed for certain
passage. An amendment is being
tacked on, however, which will al
low Land Commissioner Leo N.
Swanson to finish out his two-year
term under the present setup.
The house killed a bill which
would have empowered the govern
or to approve codes drawn up by
business groups,or recognize exist
ing national codes as state law.
Advocates of a state NR A still
have some hope left, however, as a
bill similar to the one killed re
poses in the senate labor committee.
Another bill to get the axe in
the senate was one forbidding
county boards to delegate super
sivion of relief of poor to any other
person or group.
The house’s “substitute" liquor
control act has finally made its ap
pearance, its chief characteristics
being no state retailing, setting up
of a saloon-type liquor store, and
no cafe sales.
Chairman E. J. Dugan of the
liquor committee says he is op
posed to the measure and will ask
the house to place the Wright bill
intact upon the house general file
instead of the substitute bill. Steele
(R) of Kimball, a dry, and Have
kost, classed as a moderate, did
much of the work of framing the
substitute bill.
The bill provides that no priv
ate dealer would be permitted to
buy liquor except from the state
liquor commision, thus requiring
the commission to go into the
wholesale business, with the op
tional privilege of manufacturing
liquor. Restaurants would be re
fused a liquor license, and hotels
would be allowed, to take licenses
only for salon-type barrooms. No
drinks could be sold anywhere ex
cept in duly licensed establish
ments (use of the word “saloon”
is strictly prohibited) across the
bar and with standing room only.
Packaged liquor might be sold
only in liquor stores, and no lic
ences would be issued to grocery(
drug or any other existing type of
store. There w-ould be no local op
tion for one year, and after that
option would be on the basis pro
vided in the Wright bill. Only
places recommended by local auth
orities could be licensed by the
commission and fees would remain
substantially as they are in the
Wright bill.
Beer under the substitute bill
would be left largely alone. The
state as a wholesaler would not
handle beer.
The house unicameral committee
at the Lincoln hotel last week
listened to and unofficially approved
a -18-district plan presented by
Prof. J. P. Senning of the state
university. He had previously pre
sented to the same committee a
plan having 47 districts, but he de
clared that the new plan shapes the
districts more favorably, specially
in the west where they take cog
nizance of the main highways and
would thus make campaigning eas
ier for the candidates.
Senning stated that under his
new plan there would be one repre
sentative for every 28,000 people.
Eastern Nebraska would have 31
representatives and the western
part of the state 17. The division
point would be an imaginary line
extending diganolly across the
state from Cedar county and down
thru Kearney county. The com
mittee had taken no official action
on the proposed plan early this
week.
Working on the presumption
that congress will pass President
Roosevelt’s $1,000,000,000 work re
lief bill from which Nebraska would
get in the neighborhood of 85 mil
lion in the next 2 years, the state
planning board has listed nearly
800 projects submitted by more
than400governmental subdivisions,
and has dispatched the listings to
Washington. If all these projects
were undertaken, the cost would
be around $70,000,000.
The largest project submitted
was the $25,000,000 Tri-county
power and irrigation project which
is already before PWA officials.
The pending North Loup project
also was presented. Among the
other projects submitted at the
Hastings and North Platte meet
ings were:
School improvements at Hasings
for the public schools and for Hast
ings college, public library at Old,
improvement of electric system and
park erection of a new American
Legion hall at St. Paul, 40 miles of
highway in Custer county, seven
mile pipe line to bring water to
Nelson, 81 miles of highway in
Howard county, $50,000 supplement
to Whitney irrigation system, a
$200,000 underpass and a $10,000
incinerator at North Platte, power
plant and other improvement at
Sidney to cost about $875,000, a
$50,000school auditorium at Scotts
blutf, and $10,000 worth of new
buildings for the state experi
mental farm near North Platte.
The planning board says that it
has not assumed, at this early
stage, to endorse any of the pro
jects specifically, but rather it has
listed them tentatively only as “ap
pearing to qualify for consideration
fully on their merits at the proper
time, or as soon as the PWA takes
under consideration projects for
development in Nebraska.’’ The
main idea is to effect needed per
manent benefits and at the same
time relieve unemploymnet.
The board was in session eight
days in the period of three weeks
since it was established until Feb.
26, when the last hearing was held
at North Platte.

OF STATE AFFAIRS
By Janies R. Lowell
The legislature is experiencing a
unique sensation as the result of
criminal charges having been filed
against one of its members for the
first time in memory of old timers.
The legislator in question is Dr.
Joseph F. Kasper, state senator
from Saunders, county. He has
pleaded not guilty to three counts
of receiving stolen property" and
a fourth count of being "an acces
sory after the fact." The charges
grew out of statements made to
Omaha and Wahoo police by Ray
J. Smith, handit suspect taken by
Omaha officers two weeks ago after
a gun battle in which Smith’s pal
and a policeman were killed. Kasp
er is free on $20,000 bond.
Fearful of a halocaust in event
of fire at the Hastings state in
sane hospital, the state board of
control has asked the legislature to
provide fuhds to fireproof the
buildings. There are 700 patients
crowded into one firetrap of a
building, including 250 bedridden
persons, it was stated. Governor
Cochran indorsed virtually the
whole amount asked for fireproof
ing at this institution.
The governor has appointed C
Y. Thompson, West Point, to the
state board of conciliation between
mortgage debtors and creditors.
Harmon-Huigens
A very simple marriage cere
mony was performed by Rev. Wil
liam Windoph in the chapel of St.
Ludger’s Academy Tuesday morn
ing at 6:30 when Grace M. Huig
ens became the bride of Emmet A.
Harmon of O’Neill. They were at
tended by Dorothy Ann and Bern
ard Huigens, sister and brother of
the bride. Only immediate rela
tives were present.
The bride is the eldest daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Huigens of
this city. She is a graduate of St.
Ludger’s Academy and attended
Midland business college at Fre
mont. For the past five years she
has been engaged in stenographic
work and was employed as a pri
vate secretary for L. C. Walling,
superintendent of the Interstate
Power company at O’Neill.
The groom is a prominent young
attorney of O’Neill, Nebraska.
Immediately after a three course
wedding breakfast at the home of
the bride’s parents, the newly weds
left for a short wedding trip to
Des Moines, Iowa, and will be at
home to their friends at O’Neill,
Nebraska, after March 15, 1935.

one-half per cent interest and was
to be paid in semi-annual payments
of $781.25 on the first of April and
October of each year. They allege
that they failed to pay the fifteenth
semi-annual payment due on April
1, 1933, and that they have made
no payments since. They allege
that there is now due the sum of
$25,540.68 with interest thereon
from February 1, 1935 at 8 per
cent. They ask the court to de
termine the amount due and if
same is not sold, within a reason
able time that the land be sold.
The Federal Land Bank of Om
aha has brought suit against John
McNulty, et al., on a note for $13,
000 given on February 8, 1926, and
seeks to foreclose the mortgage
given on the following land: north
west quarter of the southwest
quarter, south half of the south
west quarter of section 5; north
west quarter of southwest quarter;

ship 31, north of range 12 west of
the 6th P. M., containing 960 acres
more or less. They allege that they
failed to pay the ninth semi-annual
payment on the note, which was
due on July 1, 1930, and that they
have made no payments since. That
they also failed to pay the taxes
due for the years 1929 to 1933 in
clusive. They allege there is now
due the sum of $16,716.68. They
ask the court to determine the
amount due and if same is not paid
within a reasonable time that the
land be sold.
In another suit the roderal Land
Bank of Omaha seeks to foreclose a
mortgage given by John McNulty
for $5,000 on November 3, 1023,
on the east half of southeast quart
er of section 1, all of section 12,
all in township 31 north, of range
13, west of the 6th P. M., contain
ing 720 acres. They allege that the
defendant failed to makg the four
teenth semi-annual payment on the
loan, due Sept. 1, 1930, and also
failed to pay the taxes on the land
for the years 1929 to 1933 inclusive,
and that there is now due and un
paid the sum of $-5,627.73. They
ask the court to determine the
amount due and if same is not paid
within a reasonable time that the
land be sold.

In his petition he alleges that they
were married at Lovell, Wyo., on
August 27, 1924 He also alleges
that he has been a bona Aide resid
ent of Lincoln, Lancaster county,
for more than a year immediately
preceding the filing of the petition.
He further alleges that while liv
ing at Kearney the defendant left
him and went to Provo, Utah, and
that it was more than two years
ago. He asks for a divorce and
such other relief as the court may
deem just and equitable.
Fred Martens has brought suit
against Olive Feezer, et al., to
foreclose a mortgage given on
March 11, 1926, for $3,000 on lots
2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, in Block 3, in the
original town of Atkinson, Nebr.
He alleges that the note is long
past due and he asks judgment for
$3,000 with interest thereon at 6
per cent from the 11th day of
September, 1931. In a second
cause of action he asks judgment
for $500 on a note for that amount
given on August 10, 1926, on the
same property. He asks the court
to determine the amount due and
that if same is not paid within a
resonable time that the property
be sold.
