It provides" for the primary election for all, from local tip to state officers, but does not Include the senatorial provision. tha argument Is urged that the railroads srs actively opposed to either ot these bills y of any other form of primary election.

' 1 .WBiti the Cady railroad commission bill joam up .Sheldon moved that the salary ..-be made not lass than 13,000, which Wllsey amended . to make 11,100 a year. Sheldon then withdrew his motion, .in support of his motion Wllsey said: "I art In favor of decreasing this salary to $1,100 a year. That Is the amount we pay our governor, and our supreme Judges. . Bursty the members of this railroad com '; mission are not entitled to any more salary than Is paid the chief executive and the members of the bench, For this salary we ' should be kble to secure the services ot good, competent men." . "We want no man not worth 18,000," said Cady. 'The people will not hesitate be cause of.s, difference of the paltry sum ot $500 to pass this constitutional amendment. If tha men we employ for the solution of this paramount problem even approximate what we hope they wll accomplish the st&ta will really owe them mflch more than .$3,000," '"But that Is mora than the governor re celves," Interrupted Wjlsey. . ''Not so." retorted Cady, "every blennlum the legislature appropriates to the gover nor $t,(00 extra or 11. JM a year, making his 'sjslary $S,7po a year. . , ."If what you say la true,"; replied Wll sey, '.'we are violating the constitution." "My dear. ,alr," returned the Howard county statesman, ''every, time you vote to appropriate a dollar eut of the state treas ury yeu violate the constitution and if you would not violate the constitution you must ,pt '.no:. 'on every appropriation bill." 'then let's amend the constitution," said Wllsey, doming right around to Cady's POlnt. . .. ; , . .. . "That is Just .what this bill proposes," - said Cady .."end now Is the time to pass this cqDitltuMoaal amendment... The na tional government will help us now and It ,wo do hot take advantage ot this belp at this time it may be a long, long time be fore such another opportunity will present Itself to settle this great question." Wall, Epperson and Tucker each made speeches In favor of the bill and against tho adoption of the amendment. Wall said: "Corporation get the best of the people In their fights simply because they employ men of ability to do their work. They do not measure a man -by a salary of $3,000. They employ men who are worth many times $3,000. This state Is just as able to employ competent men aa a corporation and the state Will get this splendid service! I am opposed to cutting down this measly little $3,000. I want to get good men to do the work of the state and the way, to get them Is to pay a salary." The Wllsey amendment was voted down with only four votes for It, and the bill was recommended for passage. The committee recommended these bills for passage.

Two attempts were mads to amend the bill to cut the salary to $1,700 and then to $1,600, but both failed. Wllsey scored against the railroads In that he had tha railroad committee' amend ment to one of his bills changed back to the original. The bill, B. F. 94, provided In the original that freight trains should travel at a rate of ten miles an hour and that twenty-four hours should be given the company at division polnta to get the freight started out.

(Special Telegram.) -On convening at 10 o'clock this morning tha house passed a motion by Wilson of Pawnee that when the house adjourn today it be Until 2 p. m. Monday. Tha senate amendments to H. R. 80, which provide for the Incorporation ot the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, were adopted. These specified that nothing In the act should apply to the Masonic order. The following bills were passed: M. R. Uo, by the Lancaster delegation and I.ee and Foster of Douglas, to prohibit the "oriental and muscular dance" known as hooohee-koochee; vote S3 to 40. II. R. 104, by lee of Douglas, to prevent the sale or donation of opium, cocaine or morphine except on a physician's prescrip tion. Emergency clause. H.

R. 168, by McMullen of Gage, provid ing for the organization, government and compensation of the state militia: Increases adjutant general's salary to $1,800 a year, quartermaster general s to $1,000; gives each armory JM Instead of $100 a year rental, allows the men 26 cents for each drill, re quiring them to drill at least twice a month and brings the law Into conform ance with the Dick law. Emergency clause. S. F. 9, by Thomas of Douglas, exempting from embezzlement an attorney or collector who may retain the amount of his fee or commission on a collection. 8. F. 46. by 8 h reck of York, requiring railroads to give one round trip pass to a shipper of one car of horses or cattle, two oars of hogs or. mixed stock. This bill was defeated: H. R- 87, by Hoare of Platte, to tax sepa rately every liquor distributing station and requiring a license for every such place and tending to shut off the monopoly ot sa loons by the big brewers. At 1:30, when the house convened after noon recess, It went Into committee of the whole, with Jackson of Antelope In the chair. 8. F. 1, by Thomas of Douglas, came up. It Is the bill providing for two Shifts of twelve hours each for the firemen. Barnes of Douglaa took the floor In de fense of the bill. He made a forcible speech, producing figures to support what he said. McElhlnney of Burt interrupted Barnes to say that he had been asked to vote against the bill because It, would add to the taxes In Omaha. "Who asked you?" Inquired Barnes. "One of the big wholesale firms of Omaha," replied McElhlnney. "What firm is that?" asked Barnes. "Beebe & Runyan," If you must know," rejoined McElhlnney. McElhlnney asked if the bill would not add $108,000 to the expenses or the city. He said Beebe A Runyan said If would, and gave figures, which Barnes contradicted, with other figures. Barnes said he represented the largest taxpayers of Omaha and held a petition signed by the leading cltlsene. Barnes moved for the passage of the bill. Clarke of Douglas offered an amendment to have the bill take effect only when rati fied at the polls by a majority of the voters of Omaha after It had been submitted by a petition of 20 per cent of the voters. Speaking to , the amendment, Clarke pointed out that while he favored giving the firemen all the time with their families possible, he opposed the bill because It would Impose an adlltional expense of city government of $98,000 a year. He said he had received letters from several of the men who had signed Barnes' petition and they said after learning of what they had signed they were opposed to It. Lee of Douglaa spoke for the bill, saying It was a step forward In the course of human progress. "It is In the Interest of the worklngman," urged Lee, and he proceeded eloquently to trace the progress and development of the laboring classes whose Influence In the world's history had been next to that of the Christian religion. The firemen were laboring men. Lee extolled them as the protectors of life and property and de served all and more than the legislature could give. Windham, deprecating mixing up with Omaha affairs, urged that the bill deserved careful consideration. The feature of giv ing the fireman more time with his family appealed to him. Barnes, referring to Clarke's amendment, said he represented the men whom the cltl sens of Omaha elected the mayor and council and they wanted this bill. He called attention to Clarke's stand on the water board bill, where he didn't want the citlsens of Omaha to have a voice In af fair. Barnes read a letter from the fire men of house No. 1 stating that before elec tion Clarke and Dodge promised to vote for this measure. Clarke explained this. He said he dis tinctly told the firemen that he would sup port the bill if, as they said, It would only Increase the city's exposes $30,000 a year snd not lower tha standard of service, but he would have to reserve his final pledge until he had heard from the other side. He said he was convinced after hearing from the other side the city's expenses would be Increased $960O0 Instead of $20,000. Clarke's amendment was adopted by a vote of 40 to a. McClay of Lancaster moved to recom mend tfce bill for passage as amended. Barnes said it might as well be killed, since the citlsens ot Omaha had no voice In these matters, as the governor ap pointed the Board of Fire and Police Com missioners, which controlled the affairs of the firemen. Clarke disputed this. McClay's motion prevailed. H. R. 63, by McMullen ot Gage, providing for a primary election law In all Jurisdic tions except state, including the election of United States senators by .this method, came up. McLeod of Stanton moved to indefinitely postpone the bill and made a speech against It. McMullen and Dodge, authors of H. R. T, another primary elec tion bill, spoke for the bill, asking that It snd H. R. T be given a reapectful hearing and that the house therefore report prog ress on the bill. Douglas of Rock then made a fervent plea against both bills. Wilson of Pawnee opposed McMullen's motion to report progress. He wss against the bills snd wanted them to come to an issue now. Wilson said the primary elec tion law would enable men of wealth to subsidise papers of small means and dis criminate against the poorer candidate. Windham of Caas favored Immediate ac tion on the bill. He thought the house fully ready and able to pass on the ques tion. He was opposed to frlmary elections In Nebraska now. Cassell of Otoe deprecated a primary law In any but city districts. Lee of Douglas spoke for the bill. Prl msry elections had been tried and proven good In Omaha and he thoucht they would prove equally good in the country district. Jonee of Polk spoke against the bill. He thought It would put the government fur ther from the people Instead of nearer them. McElhlnney of Burt" expressed his opposi tion to the measure. ' - McMullen again got 'the floor amid a storm of cries of "Question! Question!" and. declared with much force that the house, many members of which had ad mitted their Ignorance of certain provisions of the bill, had divided lit thirty-five min utes to dispose finally of both bills, assum ing that they know all about every pro vision. In the course of his remarks McMullen said corporations often control nomina tions under the present system. Jones of Polk, here said If that were true "then the members of this house are cor poration nominees." "There are some corporation nominees In this house," replied McMullen. "I do not dlpute yol.';, aall Jones. "You cannot," rejoined McMullen. Perry of Furnas urged the- house to give Dodge and McMullen time to explain their bills, saying It was not right to deny this to any member. " He moved to arise and report,, and the motion was lost. McMullen's motion to report progress was lost. - McLeod'a motion to report the McMullen bill for indefinite postponement carried. Dodge's bill was next on general file and he secured the . passage of motion for the committee to rise' and report, sav ing his bill at least one day. McMullen moved to non-concur in the report on his bill snd the motion was lost, 22 to 49. The house at 4:30 p. m. adjourned until Monday at 2 p. m. DOIXGS OF THE LfCttlSLATOnS Speaker and President Af Senate Get Cot la Salary. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March l.-(8peclal.)-For the first time In the memory of the oldest legis lator the president pro tern of the senate and the speaker of the house will not re ceive the extra $3 per day. which It has been customary to pay to each. Deputy Auditor Anthes refused to Issue the warrant for the extra compensation for Benator Jennings, president pro tern of the sena'te, and for the month of February he has re fused to pay the extra amount to Speaker Rouse. The latter received $3 a day extra for January, but It is very probable that he will put It back, Inasmuch as Attorney Oeneral Brown has held, In a written opinion delivered to Lieutenant Governor McQllton, that neither the speaker of the house nor the president pro tem of the sen ate Is entitled to the extra' money. Mr. Anthes held up the claim ot Presi dent Pro Tem Jennings because the depart ment held that the extra $3 should be paid to the lieutenant governor, Who by virtue of his office la the president of the senate. Mr. Anthes reported to Lieutenant Gover nor McOlltoh and the latter, after a careful Investigation of the constitution and the statutes; handed down an "opinion that he was e.ntleled only to w(oo tha salary re ceived by a senator and no more. Attorney General Brown was then asked for a written opinion and he concurred with the opinion of Lieutenant Governor McQll ton, but went further and said the speaker of the house was not entitled to extra com pensation, w . The .constitution of 175 fixes the salary of the members of the legislature at $5 a day and of the 'lifeu"tenAht 'governor at twice the pay of a senator, or $10 a day. A statute enacted" eIVKt'Mra" nVAvlr.no A iw enactment of the constitution fixed the extra compensation for th president of the senate and the speaker of the house. The attorney general, of course, held that the constitution repealed the statutes and that all the money that hail been paid to these two officers except tha aalarv.ns flxted hv the constitution had been paid contrary to tne constitution. Before the opinion had been handed down Speaker Rmiae had al ready been paid his extra $3 a day for Jan uary, dui tne extra amount was cut out of his February warrant. The lines are still drawing tighter around State Architect Tyler. AS the Investigation progresses new evidence is brought to light which reflects upon his manner of serving the state. Senator Shreck of York was be fore the subcommittee of the claims com mittee and testified from his knowledge as member of the York Board of Education that State Architect Tyler went to York three times and sought to obtain the adop tion of his plans for an addition to the York High school. Asked It there was any room for mistaken Identity In . his mind, Senator Shreck declared positively there whs not, for he was Intimately acquainted with Tyler, who had once drawn plans for a residence for the senator. Representative Ferrar was president of the 'library board at Grand Island and he ktold tho committee that the new. library THH TRltKS , Coffee Plays, on Some. It hardly pays to laugh before you are certain of facts for It Is sometimes hu miliating to think of Afterwards. "When I we a young girl I was a lover of coffee, but was sick so much the doctor told to quit and I did, but after my marriage my husband begged me to drink it again as he did not think It was the coffee caused the troubles. "Bo I commenced it again and oontln ued about six months until my stomach commenced acting bad and choking as It I had swallowed something the sise of an egg. One doctor Said It was neuralgia and Indigestion. , "One day I took a drive with my hus band three miles In the country and . I drank a cup ot coffee - for d inner; . I thought sure I would die before I got back to town to a doctor. I was drawn double In the buggy and' when my husband hitched the horse to get me out Into the doctor's office, misery came up In my throat and seemed to shut my breath off entirely, then left all In a flash and went to my heart. The doctor pronounced It nervous heart trouble and when I got home I was so weak I could not sit up. "My husband brought my supper to my bedside with a nice cup of hot coffee, but I said: Take that back, dear, I will never drink another cup of coffee If you gave me everything you are Worth, for It Is Just killing me.' He and the others laughed at me and said: " " 'The Idea of coffee killing anybody.' ' 'Well,' I said, 'It Is nothing else but coffee that Is doing it.! . "In the grocery one day my husband was persuaded to buy a box of Postum which he brought hams and I made It for dinner snl we both thought how good It was but said nothing to the hired men and . they thought they had drank coffee until we laughed and told them. Well we kept on with Postum and it was not long before the color came beck to my cheekl and I got stout and felt as good as I ever did In my life. I have no more stomach trouble and I know I owe It all to Postum In place of Coffee. "My husband has gained good health on Postum, as well as baby and I, and we all think nothing Is too good to say about It."

Con siderable levity" waB ' indulged m: Several of the members, took occasion to explain their votes. Zeulow of Cotfax said that Inasmuch as he had never seen an ex hibition of this art he would Jvote against the bill. 'Jahnel of Washington said he didn't know what the thing meant, never having seen "one," and therefore he must vote against the bill. "Believing it is the duty of the younger members to protect the older ones and par ticularly the old soldiers," said McAllister of Deuel, "I vote yes." "Believing that the old soldiers can take care of themselves," exclaimed Peabody of Nemaha, a veteran, "I vote no." McClay of Lancaster called attention to the serious aide of the bill, saying it was supported snd promoted by 700 or 800 of the best women of the state. . The bill originated with the Lincoln Wom an's club and when Introduced bore the names of the members of the Lancaster delegation and Lee and Poster of Douglas and with these names attached as Its Joint authors It passed. It prescribes a fine of from $60 to $100 for its violation.
