TOO MUCH TIME SPENT IN FREAK LEGISLATION When the Nebraska legislature has completed Us labors we will have a bunch of foolish legislation, and ad ded to that which we have will sim ply make more business for the attor neys. It looks as If the attorneys assist In the matter of drafting many of the bills presented leaving loop holes In them which Is Inclined to cause litigation. What we should have Is a constitutional convention, where all good laws could be boiled down and made plain, while the "trash" would be cut out and then stop legislating for about ten years, until the people could soak up what was really left of the laws and what they really meant. We have and always have had too many laws and too little enforcement Nebraska City News. Mr. R. B. Windham returned last evening from Lincoln, where he was a spectator at the legislature for a time.
