NATIONAL GUARD CARED. FOP.
Amount as Finally Fixed Will Be $70,

portant Bills to Come, Up.
Lincoln. This week spelled the. be
ginning of the end. of Nebraska, leSVr
lativedom of the years of 1J13. and.
1910. There- were s,evetal things o4
downright interest to mark it, things;
which people of the state, so the. menv J
hers insisted, would be glad to know
about.
The first thing of note is the fact
that the senate, finance, committee, has
corrected the- alleged faults of : the.
house in not appropriating enough
money for the use of some of the nec
essary departments. The senate has
apparently agreed to that action and
it is probable that the bills will be
sent back, to the house with the
amounts raised to the believed-tOrbe
proper levtk
But this action cannot be laid up to
the house ajone.
Just for the fui of, the thing and
so that later on house, members might
not chide the upper house on account
of the raising of the amounts some
of the senators have kept track of
the number of house, members that
have, corne to them an4 asked them to
take this action.
They fir.dt that no. less than fifty-
four of tho lower house members or
enough to pass any appropriation bill
that might originate, but without the
emergency clause, have at various
times spoken to the state senators and
have asked them to make up for what
the house overlooked in making the
appropriations. This is a most un
usual proceeding, but the ' senators
thought it better to do that than to
have the later claim made that they
were "extravagant" or that they will
fully raised the amounts and then
compelled the house to acquiesce in
them.
The national guard is one depart-
partment that will profit by the de
cision of the upper chamber to raise
the amounts to a point where the de
partments will be able to work un
hampered by the lack of funds during
the coming two years.
Ia this the. governor and all of those
who. were mildly interested have the
backing of Secretary of War Garrison
and that really means President Wil
son, it is said here. The claim is
made with some authority that the
president asked his secretary of war
to send this telegram to Nebraska be
cause in not appropriating sufficient
funds for the maintenance of the citi
zen soldiery this state would be run
ning exactly contrary to a plan pro
posed by the national administration.
The amount as finally fixed by the
senate and which will doubtless be
agreed to by the house will be $70,000.
according to the leaders. That. i3. an
increase of $33,000 over the amount
allowed by the house. That bqdy after
an afternoon struggle not long ago
agreed that the $37.50q set aside by
the house finance committee would be
enough and the members steadfastly
refused to budge from their positions.
Some of. the most important ques
tions of the legislature are being left
to the eleventh hour for settlement.
Among the number just now pending
and which is of interest to every small
and large property owner in the state
is the anti-discrimination fire insur
ance bill. This., measure has passed
the senate and is now in the house,
where it haft been, presented out of
the sifting committee.
The. object of the bill is to do away
with the flagrant discriminations that
have existed between individuals and
communities for years past in this
state. The measure is one. which the
favored are fighting with all possible
ardor.
If the bill passes it will mean thai
each property owner will jiay just aa
much, and, no more risk for risk, for
his insurance as every other property
owner. It will mean that the same
uniformity will exist between towns
Mid villages and cities of the various
classes.
And the. average rate, so the insur
ance men say and they are. Lacked, in
that because the entire matter is put
up to the members of the state insur
ance commission, composed of the
governor, state auditor and the attor
ney general- will be no. higher, and
perhaps much lower than, it is at the
present time.
Certain it is, according to the sen
ate and house members who are urs
ing the passage of the bill, the dwell
ing house rates will, cq down over the
state from 20 to 25 per cent. That,
they say, should causa most people, tc
prick up their ears, because the. pro
portion of home owners is very large.
in the stale, and this item probably I
calls into line more, poor people un-
just objects of the present discrimina,
tion than would any other item.
One interest is fighting the bill with
alt vlciqiisness. That is the large lum
ber yards and several other large
business interests, which at present
get their insurance at ridiculously low.
rates. These men want to. see. th

present system of discrimination con
tinued. They would rather, accord
ing to Senator Howell, author of the
bill, continue along and let the small
property owners foot most of the bills
than to pay what they should, that is
higher rates, but with more justice to
the entire communities.
The Reuter bilL allowing auyone to
practice iu, thq probate coiu't, a bill
that was hard fought by the attorneys
of the senate and the house, and
which was finally killed in the former
body, after it had passed the house
provoked, a fight of some dimensions
there. The bid had a strength of six
teen and an opposition of the sam
number when the roll was called, and
it was up to Senator Bushee of Kim
ball, to break the tie. He did so by
voting with the lawyers, against th
bill.
me arguments pro and con were
unusual and of interest to the layman
The friends' said that it would save
excessive lawyers, fees in the probat
ing of estates and that it would give
more privacy to the families than is
low enjoyed In the courts. The en
emies of the bill held that without at
torneys in the equation things might
go wrong, and later on they wouid be
compelled to come in and unravel at
fairs. They held that this might par
ucuiany De true wnere tne county
judges before whom many of them
practice are not lawyers.
Kepresentative lieuter, the man
from Otoe, behind this bill, made
hard fight for it one of the most in-
qelatigable fights ever put un m the
legislature single handed. His own
efforts passed it through the house
and his own efforts were responsible
for its good showing in the senate.
Omaha interest was largely dropped
in the legislature this week when the
light bill was disposed of. That meas
ure simply gave to the people of the
metropolitan city the right to say
whether or not it should embark into
the lighting business. Every step was
contemplated in a democratic way and
with such democracy in its makeup
according to its friends, that it ill be
aooved a Democratic house to turn it
down. Lineups were many and furi
pus on the affair.
"Thero's nothing doing on further
amenxlint': senate file 2 and the Omaha
election will not be postponed until
1918," said Senator Howell, who tool
this way to correct reports that hr
would consent to a postponement of
the special election on annexation tin
til a much later date.
The corrupt practics act, backed by
Election Commissioner Harley G.
Moorhead of Douglas county, and
much needed there, is in the senate
and will probably be one of the last
house measures elevated to the sift
ing file ot that body. The measure
contains, page after page of provisions
strengthening the present law and
making it a fairer measure and. cal
culated to bring the utmost in honesty
as. far as elections are concerned.
The bill is of interest to the entire
state, because oftentimes Douglas
county determines the vote of tho bal
ance of the state in many important
matters. It is also of interest because
it is backed by Mr. Moorhead, the man
to whom credit ran be claimed for
cleaning up election conditions in
Omaha, and because it was he who
hist year when the campaign was on
was promised a reappointment by ev
ery candidate that ran for the go
ernorship that is on major party
tickets.
There is another slight, but vita!
change in the present corrupt prac
tices act made by this bill. It allows
men running for state office to spend
more money than was allowed by the
now effective law.
This does not moan that the candi
dates for state cflice will actually
spend more money in their races. It
only means that they will report just
what they spend for it is a notorious
fact, known to any men who have run
or who have been connected with the
campaign of any man for state oDico.
that most of them have actually ex
ceeded the limit, but that they have
reported varying amounts under the
prescribed limit.
In other words, according to the
friends of the bill, there will be more
honesty injected into the equation
from henceforth on than in the past.
Prediction of the house and senate
leaders is that the legislature will ad
journ not later than April 8. and per
haps as early as .April 5. If the fifth
of the month is determined upon that
w.ill mean, a sixty-nine day session for
the house and a sixty-six day session
for the senate granted that they both
work every day between now and that
time.
The end of the week will bring the
session to that point where the mem
bers will begin to gcjt anxious.
However, no one can te.ll very much
about it, for on account of the order of
Speaker Jackson issued that no
vouchers will be made out until the
