The committee appointed to draft a primary bill will meet again tomorrow night and the members expect to get down to work at that time. The Commoner next week will say this about the primary law: At the 190 state conventions held In Ne braska both the democratic party and the republican party were pledged to a direct primary law. The democratic platform said : "We will pass a comprehensive direct primary law for the whole state. In which ' party candidates for all offices shall be nominated by a direct vote of the people." This pledge could not have been made mor explicit, and every democratic mem ber elected upon It or every republican member elected upon a similar pledge l - In honor bound to vote for a direct primary ', bill. It has been urged by some republicans ernd democrats that the direct primary Is . Impractical, and members of both partlee In the Nebraska legislature have been ad vised not to support this reform plan. Thd merlU of the direct primary law are not nnrrasarilv under consideration In the pree- i enee of the fact that both of the great po I luteal narttea In Nebraska promised the . fk., jt i . Kr4nlB.tf law wmilit h enacted. If the plan waa not practical. It ' aftfcutd not have been endorsed by the plat form: If there are arguments to Justify democrat or a republican either for that matter In voting against the direct pri mary those arguments should have been presented beYore the state convention and ut the party and the garty's repreeenta i lives on record- . . In the Commoner's hpinlon argument is bn the side of the direct primary, which plan Is a great Improvement over the con . ventlon method of nominating. Conven tions should be allowed for the framing of platforms and for the performing of any worn wnicn cannoi uo auno j r .7. vote; but the more fully the control of the party can be kept In the hands of the rank and file, the better. Authority comes from the people, and the more directly and completely the people control, the less dan ger there Is of the thwarting of the wishes of the voters. ' Hard Sledding; for Internrbnn BUI. .Judging from the reception It received to day In ths senate 8. V. No. . providing that street railway companies may guar ' antee, buy and own stock and bonds of Interurban companies, has a rocky road to . travel before. It Is plaoed on the statute books. After a long discussion, today. In . which Joe Burns of Lancaster and Aldrlch f Butler threw all kinds of doubtful ,com nllmente at ach other, the bill was sent back to the gundlng committee for further consideration and amendment. : -The peculiar feature of the discussion was that no one made any direct chargu against the bill, but several of the sena tors seemed to fear there was a negro adroitly concealed somewhere In the wood pile., .Senator Ashton. of Hall started the onslaught by offering some amendments uki.i, umit lh, at mat railway comnantes to guarantee, but not to own bonds, and to lease for a limited term, but not own , iaterurban roads. He declared he believed -t 4ht effect .of the bill would be to permit a street railway company to act aa a hold . lna aomsaay for numerous Interurban i, companies. He thought this would be bad . policy and might result seriously In the i. future. t Aldrlch alse had a far-reaching amend v. ment which would require a starching ln- vestlgatton by the railroad commission be . fore any of the Interurban roads could float . stock or bond Issue. .- .Thomas, who Introduced the bill, ex . plained It was merely to permit the Omaha V Council Bluffs company to build and operate Interurban roads to the suburbs of Omaha and waa Intended to go no further. But the opponents of the bill saw In It a plan to permit the formation of an Inter urban railway "trust" or pool. Aldrlch also opposed It, declaring It would lead to "high finance" methods hy the companies. To prevent this he offered his amendment requiring an Investigation by the railway commission before stocks or bonds could Je Issued. Bnraa ana KJaa- Favor It. ' ' Joe Burns of Lancaster got Into the dls ": cession at once with the declaration the tendency was to regulate too much. He said the poor bond and stockholders were able to take care of themselves and de clared the ateam railways were fighting the Interurbans and had carried the fight even Into the senate. ' x' " King of Polk favored the bill declaring It was necessary to permit the street rail ways ; to back Interurbans In order that the Interurbans might be built aa the de. velopment of the atate required. He said Aldrich's amendment should be attached to another statute and that he waa Work ing on. a bill which covered the same ground.. He declared' the amendment .If attached to this Dili would be null as It did not provide for the - organisation of corporations, but for the owning of stuck after -the corporation waa ' formed.

OVER SALARY INCREASE Favorably Reported la House, hot So Certainty, of Passage. LINCOLN, Jan. 81. The house spent a great deal of time this morning over Mike Lee's proposed amendment to the consti tution. Increasing the pay of legislators to $10 a day. The majority of the committee reported the bill for the general file, while the minority, Whitham, Line and Rlohard son, voted to have It Indefinitely postponed. The majority report carried, but It la Im possible to say whether the bill will carry , ... ... . . " majority report did so because they wanted to hear the bill discussed In the committee of the whole. The vote to put the bill on general file was 61 to 36. ' Dodge of Douglas came out flatfooted not only for sustaining the majority of the committee, but for the bill aa well. He believed with better salaries ' Nebraska wouIB get beter officers.; He said the Douglas county members spent more than their salaries In getting elected and that Nebraska was one of the most prosperous "taws in tne union ana its debt was a r institution appropriations, jen- n'n r -'ay "an whether he was tor th bll, but n" was In favor of It get ln f",r shake In the committee of the , whole. upringer or coii a Biurr opposed the bill be WW ao. I am opposed to debt," he said, "and I am opposed to salary grabs. The state Is In debt and every taxpayers is assessed on every piece of his property that can be found to pay that debt and we are going In debt more every year to run our government. I am op posed to raising salaries until the state Is on a cash basis. I don't want to put my nose to the grindstone and neither do I want to be laid away In six feet of earth . plastered over with mortgages. If you i want to spend 810 a day and want to mors ' se the state to get It, Ood save the state." McMullen didn't look on the matter aa a alary grab, but ha voted to Indefinitely postpone the bill, he said, to hasten ths time when a constitutional convention would be called and the evils complained of remedied. MUllgan of Dixon said every member knew what the salary was when he was elected and he waa not In favor of raising salaries.

THREETIIAW JURORS LET OUT Action Taken After Csnftrenoej in Which Defense Objects Vigorously. THREE MORE SECUR.D DURING THE OAY Bob Now Coatalae Elevea Men, hot There Are Rontore that There Will Be More Discharges Today. NEW YORK, Jan. 81. Sensations were frequent In the Thaw murder trial today and before the two sessions of court had ended three sworn Jurors had been Ye leaaed from further servloe In the case, making five In all summarily excused from the trial panel during the last three days. Regarding two of the released Jurors no explanation was made In court. The third was allowed to go on a physician's cer tificate that his life would) be Imperiled by the close confinement of Jury service. Three talesmen were summoned to replace these, so that when the situation under went a survey at the close of the day, there were again eleven men In the Jury box, the same number that had been seated at the close of yesterday's session. Rumors were current tonight that the end of the Jury changes la not yet In eight. and that further chapters may be added to what has already become an unprece dented record In criminal procedure In New Tork. There were several conferences of attorneys this afternoon. In which District Attorney Jerome Is said vigorously to have urged the release of still another Juror. Thaw's counsel, however, are said to have blocked every effort of the prosecuting of fleer In thle direction. Friction Among Attorneys. Tne disagreement which first developed In Justice Fitzgerald's chambers half an hour before the afternoon session began. was resumed In open court at the Judge's desk twice thereafter, and engendered bitter feeling among the attorneys. Here tofore the relations of the district attorney and his assistant with Thaw's counsel have been of the friendliest nature. Thla after noon there was friction of the most ap parent character. The first of the day's sensations came Immediately after a tardy opening of the morning session. District Attorney Jerome announced that It had been unanimously agreed to relieve Jurors David S. Walker and Louis Haas from further service. Mr, Walker, who Is a son of John Brlsben Walker, was No. 4, and Mr. Haas was No. on the Jury roll. Neither could offer an explanation for the court's action In ordering their discharge. Rnmor Of Further Dt.ehnrarea. It was taken for granted that the re lease of these two Jurors had ended the day's surprises, but during the luncheon recess rumors of a . further reduction In the personnel of the Jury were put In cir culation and these were given color when It was learned that another earnest con sultation of counsel with Justice Fltxgerald was In progress. The name of the Juror under consideration was again dlscursed bout the court building. It was also stated that he was a Juror, whom Thaw and his counsel had been particularly pleased to have on the trial panel and that the lawyers for the defense would fight to the last any effort to dislodge him. Thaw's attorneys had been none too willing to allow Messrs. Walker and Haas to be replaced and It was only after a long ar gument by the district attorney that they consented In the case of the third man. The conference was one of some warmth. When no announcement was made of fur ther discharges it was taken that Mr. Hartiidge and others of Thaw's counsel had won the battle with the district attorney. The examinations of the talesmen, called fter the first conference, were carried on under circumstances Indicating that feeling existed on both sides, and once a talesman nearly 80 years old. Wham neither side ap peared to want, came very near to taking the oath because Mr. Jerome - refused to carry on the examination when counsel for the defense declined to give Immediate consent to the proposed juror's withdrawal. Thaw's attorneys also declined' to examine the talesman and all challenges for cause had been withdrawn when Mr. Jerome at the last moment Interposed a peremptory challenge for the people. Another Lively Ara-nmen,t. Mr. Jerome then called another confer ence. Which was held this time at the Judge's desk. There was gesticulating and an Indication of a lively argument, but again to no avail, and the regular proceed ings were resumed. , Toward the end of the afternoon session a messenger came from the district attor ney's office. There was a whispered consul tation with Justice Fltxgerald and the at torneys and it was announced that because of 111 health Juror No. 11. Henry I. Klein berger, a silk merchant, . would be relieved from further service. . Mr. Kleinberser.s physician had Informed the district's of fice of the danger to the patient's heart and It was agreed that he should be exouaed. Three Jnrora Seenred. Two of the three Jurore added to the panel were secured at the morning session. They are Oscar A. Pink, a salesman, 48 years old, who replaced Mr. Walker as No. 4, and Wilbur 8. Steels, a manufacturer, 80 years old, who replaced Haas aa No. 8. The Juror aecured to replace Mr. Klelnberger as No. 11 Is Joseph B. Bolton, (7 years old, a clerk. It Is believed the twelfth Juror will be secured tomorrow, but the uncertainty as to the term of, service of a Juror now sit ting on the trial panel was ao strong that predictions are all but worthless.. It was said tonight that Thaw's attorney might give In to Mr. Jerome's demand for the ex cuse of a juror, if he In turn would agree to the excuse of a Juror which the defense does pot altogether view with favor. This could not be verified. The release of so many sworn jurors has resulted In the In crease by ten of the peremptory challenge, allowed each side. The defense has used twenty-nine of Its original thirty and now has eleven left. The prosecution has twen ty peremptory challenges still at Its com mand. -District Attorney Jerome announced today for the first time that he had decided not to make the opening address to the Jury. He will turn the task over to his assl.tant, Francis P. Oarvan, who has had Immediate charge of the Thaw case ever since ths night ot the Roof Oarden tragedy. HYMENEAL Bnnsaann-Psetn. WEST POINT.
