As matters stand at the present

city except South Omaha without
paying a cent.
"But If a man lives on the north

directly across the street on the south
side, he must pay to talk to that

Bryan's latest argument.
"If I remember right. Governor Mc

gasoline tax Identically ths same as
that he proposed for Nebraska and
Bryan fought this tax bitterly.
"I wonder why If he thinks we
should accept his plan because two
states have governments resembling
his ideas In a slight degree and turn
down McKelvle's plan when dozens
of state governments have tried It
out and endorsed It.”

Osborne Tells
Profits Gained
by Co-Operation
Prison Publicity Man Urges
Farmers’ Union to Buy
Twine Made by
Convicts.
Combined business transacted by
the Farmers’ Union Exchange in
1922 was estimated at $200,000,000 by
C. J. Osborne, president of the Ne
braska Farmers Co-operative and
Educational union, in his address at
the annual convention In session at
the Auditorium yesterday.
’’This meant a saving of $500,000 to
the farmers who patronized the ex
change,” President Osborne declared.
“Had all the members patronized the
exchange as they should have, the
stock they own In the concern would
be worth 100 cents on the dollar.
“The past year was a difficult one
for all business concerns, but In spite
of this, we made a good showing. We
are trying our best to bring the ex
change back to Its prewar successful
ness.”
Decline In Membership.
President Osborne declared that
since 1919 there had been a steady
decline In the membership of the
Union.
“In 1919 the membership was 37,266,
and In 1922 It had shrunk to 22,688.
In 1919, the maintenance fund was
$36,430, with a surplus of $123,044. In
1922 this fund was Increased to $40,
926, with a surplus of $111,760.
"Each year more than $8,000,000
In Insurance premiums go out of
Omaha to Wall street and to foreign
insurance companies. Patronage of
the farmers' insurance company would
keep most of this money In Nebraska.
In the past five years the farmers
have been saved $225,000,000.
“In 1922, the livestock commission
com jinny handled 19,848 cars of live
stock, representing a valuation of
$27,591,373. Members patronizing the
commission companies at St. Joseph
and South Omaha saved $205,020,’’ the
speaker said.
Advertise Prison Twine.
J. E. Gillespie, publicity representa
tive t>f the Minnesota state peniten
tiary at Stillwater, brought an inter
esting message. The Minnesota man
told of the only self-supporting state
penitentiary In the world and his ref
erence to-the twine output was of
particular interest to the Nebraska
farmers.
Last year the Stillwater peniten
tiary produced 25,000,000 pounds of
twine, some of which was bought by
the Farmers union in Nebraska. An
official of the union stated that his
organization has reduced the price of
twine in Nebraska 4 to 5 cents a
pound since buying it from Stillwater, j
The union wants to interest the No- i
braska legislature in adopting a pris
on system similar to the Stillwater j
plan.

water institution is not or^ly self
sustaining, but that it sends out near
ly all prisoners in sound bodily health

Lease Given Lawyers
Lincoln. Jan. 9.—(Special.)— The
board of directors of thp Nebraska
Building and Investment company
chosen two weeks ago were re elected
at a stormy meeting of the stock
holders here today.
The payment of $26,000 to C. J.
Campbell and C. C. Flansburg as
attorneys’ fees for past and future
services was the most Interesting
sidelight brought out at the meeting
by Judge J. Thomas, president of the
board and presiding officer. Rome
Miller, who made the purchaso of the
Fontenelle hotel lease from the old
board of direotors, gave a check for
(25,000 as part payment, and accord
ing to TUoma9, this was transferred
by the old directors to the two at
torneys as fees.
The newly elected directors do not
recognize the sale to Miller as legal
and are taking the position that he
[must look to the nltomeya for th<
return of his check.
