Lincoln. Neb., March 21. Three
hills were passed in the lower legis
lalive house today.
The first was the passage by a vote
of f,7 to 28, of the Richmond capito
bill, a measure providing for wing-by
wim? construction of a new state
house.
The second act was the passage
ah-.o, by a vote of 72 to 18, of the
measure providing for an extensive
plan of good road building and ac
ceptance of federal aid therefor.
The Richmond bill provides for i
levy of (57-100 of a mill to defray the
expense of erecting the first wing and
of footing the actual expense bills in
curred by the special commision of
five members which will have charge
of the work.
The good roads bills carries an ap
propriation of 6.-100 of a mill and
will raise approximately $640,000 in
the next two years, which amount will
be combined with over $3,000,000 of
federal money to be expended over
the state for better highways.
Th latter anromiation meets the
federal governmental requirements
for the years 1910, 1917 and 1918. A
levy of about the same size will be
required of the 1919 legislature to
complete the work and meet the
last appropriation from the federal
government.
A third appropriation bill, provid
ing a fund of $20,000 to pay the ex
penses of civil war veterans from Ne
braska attending the Vicksburg cele
bration next summer, went through
by 85 to 1. The lone vote against it
was cast by Chairman Reischick of
the finance committee, who also op
posed the capitol and federal aid
ills.
The promised attempt to have the
Richmond measure reconsidered and
changed back in part to its orginal
form, providing for a complete new
capitol and a continuing levy of 1 mill,
but with a clause inserted postponing
any construction failed to materialize.
This was known to be in the inter
est of the capitol removal. A par
tial canvass of the house member
ship had shown that it would receive
no support outside the little coterie
which has been trying all through the
session to work up sentiment for that
proposition.
Mr. Taylor, the brains and moving
force behind the removal idea, had
gone home to Nerna, but even with
their leader gone, the members from
Grand Island and Kearney insisted on
getting right in front of the steam
roller, which flattened them out in
great shape. Hostetter and Stuhr
sent up explanations of their votes,
stating that they didn't want any lit
tle old wing", but a complete iiw cap
itol only they thought the people
should vote oh where it should be lo
cated.
Mr. Seudder of Grand Island voted
"no" on the bill, biit did hot take the
trouble to explain vrhy.
CONGRESS CAL
LED TO DECIED
ON WAR
Congress Probably will be Asked to
Declare that a State of War Has
Existed for Sometime
Washington, March 21. President
Wilson today called congress in ex
tra session on April 2.
The purpose of the extra session is
to take action on the state of war
which admittedly exists between the
United States and Germany.
Congress probably will be asked to
declare thxit a state of war has ex
isted since some recent date when
German submarines began conducting
their most warlike operations against
American commerce.
In his proclamation calling con
gress together, the president states
it is for the purpose to receive
communication from him concerning
"grave questions of international pol
icy."
The proclamation does not state
specifically that the president con
siders a state of war exists, but leaves
the question for discussion in his ad
dress and for action by congress.
The proclamation follows:
"Whereas, public interests re
quire that the congress of the Uni
ted States should be convened in ex
tra session at 12 o clock noon on
April 2, 1917, to consider grave
questions of national policy."
Now. therefore. I. Woodrow Wil
son, president o fthe United States
of America, do hereby proclaim and
declare that an extraordinary occas
ion requires the congress of the Uni
ted States to convene in extra session
at the Capitol in the city of Washing
ton, on April 2, 1917, at 12 o'clock
noon, of which all persons shall at
that time be entitled to act as mem
bers thereof, are hereby required to
take notice."

The above facsimile of check represents the land-lords share
from the 1916 crop raised on 1 00 acres of Chase County Nebraska
land. Mr. Peter M. Jorgensen, of Avoca, Nebraska, bought this land
from me two years ago, for $20.00 per acre. He had the land broken
out at a cost of $2.50 peracre. This made the land including break
ing cost Mr. Jorgensen $2250.00. It was rented for the year 1916
on the terms that the owner was to receive one-fourth of the crop
delivered to market, this check does not represent the total rent by
about $50.00 and means that the crop grown on the 1 00 acres brought
$2800.00 or $550.00 more than the original cost of the land.
This is not an exception, we have dozen of Chase County land
owners doing this same thing year after year.
Do you know that Chase County led all Nebraska Counties on
yield of wheat? The past year the average being 36 bushels per
acre.
Read this over' again Mr. Land Investor, it will do you good
then make up your mind to go along out with me and see for yourself.
I make regular trips every week, and have the real goods to show
you in Chase County.
