Another Threat
of Special Session
by Mr. Bryan
Killing cf the Governor's Own Bank
ing Reorganization Bill Causes
Executive Wrath.
Threat of a special session because
of possible Inability of house and
senate to get together on an appro
priation bill was doubled Tuesday
when the governor's secretary told
the house banking committee that if
S. F. 2G3, bank department reorgan
ization bill, is not passed, members
will be called back. The bill was
killed in committee 4 to 3 and Chair
man LaVelle. voting with the
prevailing side, is allegdly not in
sympathy with it. After the killing,
a meeting was called altho with five
of the committeemen allegedly re
fusing to attend, it was a near-im
possible task to draw a Quorum. It
was reported that "Williams, Brad
street, Owen, Balder and Woodruff
had walked out with no desire to re
consider postponement of the rneas
ure.
Opponents cf this legislation sug
gested by the governor, contend that
it throws the banking system back
into politics. It completely revamps
the department relative to supervi
sion, liquidation and control of banks,
trust companies and building and
loan associations. It consists of sisty
three pages and many senate amend
ments in its recreation of a depart
ment of banking. Provision is made
for office of superintendent of banks
at a salary to be fixed by the gover
nor, not to exceed $5,000. The gov
ernor is given sweeping power as to
appointment of attorneys and receiv
ers. The State Bankers association
is not in sympathy with the measure.
It has been referred to as executive
yEtem of receiverships in place of
udicial system.
Senator Ilawxby of Nemaha, who
was champion of the governor's bill
in the upper branch, said that one
disagreement has to do with length
of term of the banking head. Under
the present law the bank director is
appointed for two years but the bank
commissioner, who is i ncharge of
examination of state banks, holds a
six year tetm.
GIVE EinERTAHHtfEKT
The entertainment at the Meth
odist church of Union on Tuesday
evening, April 25th by Circle No. 2
of the ladies' aid was very well at
tended, all present expressing by
their genial attitude an appreciation
of the amusements offered, and en
joyment of the few social hours spent
together.
The entertainment was opened by
the singing of "America" by the aud
ience, followed by prayer by the pas
tor, Rev. B. N. Kunkel. Mrs. L. R.
Upton as chairman of the program
committee then requested Miss Eliza
beth Rankin, one of the teachers to
have in charge the rendition of the
group of songs by the girls' high
school glee club, also the music and
readings by the primary pupils of the
school. Miss Rankin was the accom
panist for the school program, also
for the two musical readings given
by Hazel Fitzpatrick, which were es
pecially clever and enjoyable. An
original poem entitled "Financial
Trials of Our Ladies' Aid," was given
by Mrs. Fannie Eikenbary which was
kindly received becauso of its rela
tion to our home church, affairs. A
trio composed of Rev. B. N. Kunkel,
Philip Rihn and J. D. Cross sang a
group of songs, three old time favor
ites which are always appreciated
and enjoyed.
With Mrs. L. G. Todd at the piano
a . "Kitchen Orchestra" composed of
six other members of the Eociety ren
dered on the familiar kitchen uten
sils, two very noisy if not euphonious
selections, which called forth much
applause from the audience.
An especially enjoyable feature of
the evening was two readings given
by Mrs. Earl Green who showed the
professional training of the lyceum
stage.
Mr. and Mr3. J. D. Cross very pleas
antly filled the interim by singing a
parody of the "Swanee River" while
the ladies were preparing a lunch of
cake and coffee, the eating of which
j closed the evening's entertainment in
a pleasant and informal manner.
A charge of 10 cents was made at
the door which netted the ladies sev
eral much needed dollars with which
to complete thei rmonthly paymenta
on the pastor's salary, for which they
wish to thank the audience, also all
who contributed In any way to the
success of the evening.

Things Better in Nehawka.
With over forty people working in
the Olsen stone quarry and the work
on the paving coming on, the people
from away think that there is much
work in the hustling little city, and
a hustling city it is at that, and will
sure make as much work as possible
for its own people and as much as
t can for those who may choose to
come and make their homes here.
Incident to the report that there was
soon to be work on the paving of
No. 24, there were in Nehawka on
last" Monday morning some forty peo
ple looking for employment, which
has to be deferred for some days as
the job of pouring concrete was not
as yet ready. However, there are a
number of people working on the
preparations for the work, such as
getting the roadbed in shape, the lay
ing of water pipes and getting things
in readiness that when the work does
start it might not be held upon ac
count of not having things in readi
ness. Plans Changed Again, But Enjoyed.
Something always happens, and
this time was no exception to the
rule. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Rough
had planned to make a visit to the
home of their daughter, Mrs. D. H.
Wilson and family at Crete, and in
the morning had prepared to leave
and were just starting for Crete when
up drove the daughter and husband
with the family and apprised the
parents that they were on their way
to Algona, Iowa. Therewith Mr. and
Mrs. Rough who were now ready,
arcompanied Mr. and Mrs. Wilson to
Omaha, where they picnicked in a
park and ate their dinner, Mr. and
Mrs. Wilson continuing on to their
Iowa destination, while having en
joyed the day and their trip to Om
aha Mr. and Mrs. Rough returned
home. On their return home they
came via Shenandoah, Iowa, and
visited the two broadcasting stations
and enjoyed the many flowers which
are growing in profusion in the Iowa
town.
New Cafe Opened.
Now Nehawka has four eatin
houses, they being Nick Klaurens,
the Albert Wolfe cafe, Mrs. Mark
Burton, and with the last the Mc
Coy Cafe.
The .latter opened on last Mon
day. They are going to name the
eating place by suggestions from
their customers and the successful
person who proposes the most accept
able name will eat pie, for they will
givo a pie away for the name which
suits them the better. Still, how
are they going to find business for
them all?
Town Board Organized.
The Nehawka town board which
is now composed of J. J. Pollard,
Glen Rutledge, C. D. Adams, the new
men, and Stewart Rough and John
H. Steffsns, the old members, met on
Tuesday evening and organized the
new council.
