Rail Supervision
Less Restrictive
People May Have Gone Too
Far in Regulation, Says
H. G. Taylor.
H. O. Taylor, for 12 years a mem
ber of the Nebraska state railway
commission and candidate for re-elec
tion as a republican, was the speaker
at the weekly dinner of the Rotarians
here yesterday.
Mr. TayJor, a student of transpor
tation ’ affairs, spoke on the growth
of transportation, the interdependence
hetweep the. railroads and the farm*
prs. and the needs of the transporta-'
tlon systems it they are to keep pace
with the development of the coun
try.
"Had It not been for the develop
ment of the locomotive and the build
ing of railroads far ahead of the de
velopment of the country itself, this
republic might yet be confined to a
fringe of states on the two sea
coasts," he said. "It is 'possible, too,
that the whole interior of the repub
lic might now be under the control
of European powers.
"The development of steam trans
portation was so rapid, itpd the set
tling up of the country'so tremen
dous, that it was only natural that
an era of wild speculation, of graft
and of high financing took place.
Then came the time when an out
raged people demanded and secured
restrictive laws, and in their resent
ment they may have gone too far in
that direction.
"The tendency is now, I believe
for the pendulum to swing back, not
to the extremes of the old days, of
course, but hack to that happy me
dium where the transportation
managers and the great mass of pro
ducers shall sit at a common table,
put their cards in plain sight and af
ter wise eouncll and mutual forbear
ance arrive a* an understanding that
will spell prosperity for all the peo
ple."

Around Nebraska's State House
>___*
By R. H.'PKTKKS. I
Staff C in-respondent The Onisha Bee.
Uncoln, March 12.—The pandemon
ium of the overture has died away,
•the curtain has rolled up. and the
first performance is on of the "Pri
mary Campaign of 1!I24.'' scheduled
for a four weeks' run. The dust
stirred up hv the pellmell entrance of
democrats anxious to join R. Beecher
Howell in Washington lifts and dis
closes a group of seven huddled un
der the inscription, "Candidates for
the United States Senate."
Until close to midnight Saturday
only two parlies were included in the
senatorial race, but just before Secre
tary of State Pool declared the lists
closed .1. J. Thomas of Seward an
nounced that he would accept pro
gressive petitions and run under tho
double banner of democrat* and pro
gressives.
The acceptance of Thomas brings
the last of tile Bryan supported randl
dates Into the fold of the socalled pro
gressives. With him are Bryan him
self. Kdgar Howard, John H. More
head, Ashton C. Shallenberger, Her
man Uiers, Charles W. #Pool, and
Floyd L. Bollen. The last is a can
didate* for railway commissioner; the
others, with the exception of Bryan
and Pool, potential congressmen.
The progressive petitions filed for
Tijomns confirm a long standing sus
picion that Charles W. Bryan has
been responsible for the shower of
progressive tags that have fallen upon
the democratic-progressive group.
Progressive politicians begging Nor
ris to be the candidate of the party
have never’appeared, anil yet Norris
will probably get more votes from
real progressives than any three of
the other six candidates together.
Bryan has made a joke of the pro
gressive party. If one of these dem
ocratic-progressives should be put Into
Office whose interests will he serve?
His reply will be. the people, but the
people don't think alike or there
wouldn't be any political parties. If
he can serve both parties alike then
there is no necessity for the two
parties. One ran function for both.
Bryan figures that he cannot lose
so that he is playing good politics.
However, it would be unfortunate for
real democrats and real progressives
if there were not candidates in the
field who are not attempting to ride
two horses. *
Governor Bryan probably heaved a
great sigh of relief when the lists
were rlosed and no democrat had ap
peared to grab the Nebraska delega
tion to the democratic national con
vention.
McAdoo offered no trouble to the
governor in keeping the ballot clear
of presidential possibilities, but ad
mirers of Walsh of Montana have
caused him fitful moments. Bryan
can nrtw go to the convention with
his 16 handpicked delegates prepared
to throw them into the fight wherever
they will return the greatest benefit.
That they will vote for Bryan on
the first ballot and perhaps on sub
seriuent roll rails Is not only withhi
the realms of possibility, hut highly
probable. Bryan figures he has a
chance, and. like his brother, a chance
is all he wants to go out and start
after business.
Our sympathies are extended to
Trenmor Cone who watched the weeks
roll by with his name only as the
democratic candidate for the senate.

What is the function of a prohibl

141,590 Auto Licenses
Taken Out This Year
Lincoln, M arch 12.—The total nuti
her of automobile licenses issued in
Nebraska during January and Feb
ruary this year was 141,590 and the
aggregate fees collected came to
$1,658,452.
Because the county treasurers in
Douglas and 15 other counties failed
to make returns on licenses issued
by them during February, the rec
ords of the state registration office
show a large falling otl ns compared
with the first two months of 1923.
When all reports are in, a consid
erable gain will be exhibited.
A year ago in the same two months,
with only four small counties miss
ing, the total registration was 183.499
and the receipts of auto license tax
amounted to $2,161,375.
