We, the undersigned electors of Ihe

"Second It is a notorious fact that
the said Beemer has been unduly ac

of the worst criminals who have been

Objects to Joint Committees
After reading of the minutes in the
hcusc of representatives Monday Tren
ir.or Cone, of Wahoo, objected to the
appointment of joint committees for
the following reasons.
It is destructive of the individual
lights of the members.
r, destroys the effect and efficiency
of the standing committees.
It takes the consideration of ques
tions from the standing committees.
All this centralization of power is
dangerous and contrary to the spirit
of the constitution.
Would Investigate Norris Brown
Representative Van Ilousen of Col
fax county, created a little excitement
in the house of representatives Friday
morning by introducing a resolution
reflecting upon the official conduct of
Norris Brown as attorney general of
the state, setting forth in detail the
charges that have appeared at differ
ent times in the press duriiit'fthe state
campaign. The charges imply collu
sion between the attorney general and
the State Journal Printing company,
the grain trust and the lumber trust
and demands an investigation of the
attorney general.
It has been common knowledge that
a number of republican members were
personally opposed to the election pf
Norris Brown to the senate and that
certain interests would like to com
pass his defeat. A resolution similar
to the one introduced by Van Ilousen
was passed around among the anti
Brown republicans, but none among
them would assume the risk of openly
antagonizing the party declaration in
convention, or of losing influence in
the legislature by opposing Brown
when there was not the slightest
chance for success. The fusionists
generally hoped that some republi
can might be found to father the reso
lution, but non could be found.
Upon the assembling of the house on
Monday the Van Ilousen resolution
was calltxl up and a motion made to
lay it upon the table. The motion
carried by a large majority, every re
publican voting for it. The fusion
vote was not unanimous for the reso
lution. State Items
