BENSON GfTHORHE: bin CIUUlAaliEIi: sion bill, H. R. 90S, which the house began In the committee of the whole as soon as the session opened, it developed there Is a serious difference ot opinion regarding the mode of prooedure to be taken by the coiy mlselon In fixing rates. The bill s now drawn provides the commission shall make a "complete" schedule of rates as soon as practicable and put the same Into effect. The railroads then. If they choose, may appeal from those rates. Ned Brown Is of tne opinion the hearing should come nrt. He therefore offered an amendment to the effect that the commission shall prepare. a scneauie ' (not complete necessarily) and then before putting the rates Into effect give me railroads an opportunity to be heard on (he matter. His argument was In effect that the present section as drawn Is not legal. Inasmuch as he holds the rates filed by the railroads' are property and property cannot be taken without due process of law. He believes the committee puts the horse before the cart, Speaker Nettleton agreed with him, as did Quacken bush of Nemaha. Walsh, who helped draft the bill, objected strenuously to any such change and his position was endorsed by augias. ii was suggested that a committee be appointed to look Into the legality of the section and the committee merely reported progress and without fur ther action took up the anti-pass bill. Annexationists Are Heard. A delegaUon from South Omaha cone posed qf W. W. Plaher, a merchant, and Bruce McCulloch, a newspaper man. and John P. Breeji from Omaha, addressed the bouse In open session this afternoon from 1:30 to o'clock In favor of the consoli dation of Omaha and South Omaha. The men were not accompanied by a brass band and neither were they flanked On all sides by schoolma'ams or school children, yet they were given good, attention and a respectful hearing. Mr. McCulloch and Mr. Flaner talked along the same lines they had dlsouased when before the committee on cities and town Mr. McCulloch told of the floating population In South Omaha which made It doubtful whether annexation would carry If left to a vote of that-4.owh, because, be said. It would be a question of who could secure the floating vote of from 1,600 to t.OOO. At the start he said tbe friends of legislative annexation would be handicapped by at least 1.500 votes. lu describing some of the Conditions In the packing dty, Mr.. McCulloch said .one brew ery owned thirty-eight saloons and at least two members of the city council owned saloons, ' '1 am sorry I have not a picture of that council to show you." he said. Mr. Fisher told of tbe line between Omaha and South Omaha being only im aginary and described again that It Is a vcity of 16,000 people absolutely dependent en Omaha for everything In the way of llaHjt, water and street oar aervioe.' i MY Breca discussed tbe legality' of leg islative annexation and cited numerous de- dalonsto support His contention that the bill nope ruling la a legal document and will stand the tests of the courts, tie be lieved the greatest good would be done to the greataat number by the passage of the bUL May Set kjn Two-Cent Rill. Oovernor Bheldan In all probability will not alga tbe 1-cent rate bill and neither will be veto it. but It la understood he has de rided to allow the Mil to become a lew without any action n his part. This It will do within five daya in his speecliee during the campaign. In which he bore the brunt of the fight,, the governor srent on record as being opposed to a flat I-cent rate, at the same time saying he was In favor of this matter being left to the rail, way commlMlon. He has not channel his position on the question. Inasmuch, how ever, as the legislature has so unanimously gone on record In favor of the flat 2-rent rate, the governor believes he should not Veto the bill, but at the same time he does not want to endorse the measure. The fact that the railroads agreed to sell mile age books at a flat 1-cent rate leads the governor to believe they could not sustain an action in the courts. His idea In leav ing the matter to the railway commission was to get the best results. He believed some of the roads could afford to sell tick ets at less than 1 cents a mile, while others' probably could not sell for I cents. Bill May Be Recalled. The house, will attempt to g't back from the governor H. R. Ill by Quackenbush, the bill to Increase the fees of court re porters. If the house doesn't get the bill back tha governor will veto It. . It has been discovered the bill Increases the sal aries of the court reporters of Douglas and Lancaster counties out of all proportion to the work done and therefore It Is Con sidered a bad measure. The bill went through both bouses with very little trouble under the guidance of Henry Waring and Myron Wheeler, but It will have hard sled' ding' If It Is started through again. Some of the members who voted for It aro now of the opinion a salary of II, B00 for about eleven months work, regardless of fees. Is a pretty good salary for a court reporter. The governor likes some portions of the bill, but Is opposed to others and unless It Is amended to conform ,to his Ideas he will veto It. The bill can be recalled by a Joint resolution. Oaaaha Cttarter Amendments. Senator Thomas today Introduced a blU Into the senate making some Important changes In the Omaha charter, one of which relates to the annexation of adjoin ing cities and villages. Tbe bill makes the following changes In the present charter: Amending section 7569'ot Cobbey s supple ment of 1Wj6 to Increase the district within which the mayor and council may order street improvements from k.000 to 4,000 feet of the courthouse square.

The senate this afternoon Just before ad journment voted by a large majority to have a sifting committee to be elected next week to go over the general file to select the measures of general Importance The committee Is to be recommended by the standing committee on oommlttees and a report was ordered by .next Wednesday. A number of senators, Including McKesson and Burns of Lancaster, opposed a sifting committee at all and a few others urged It was too early, for one,' but the majority favored early action In order that the im portant measures may be got out of the way before the rush of closing' days. I The revised county option bill, was Intro duced in the senate today by McKesson of Lancaster. The measure Is somewhat dif ferent from the .one killed In both houses several weeks ago, but Is backed- by the same people as that one. It provides for a special election to be held the last Tues day in July, 18, where 20 per cent ot the voters petition tor It If the county goes dry no saloons may be licensed, except In cities of t.OOO or over, which may vote li cense If they wish.

McKesson also has a plan for the estab lishment of a new normal school at Lin coln. Hs Introduced a resolution today au thoring the acceptance of the old Western Ntfrmal scjiool building by the 'state and the establishment of a normal school therein. Oraln men will be Interested In a bill In troduced by McKesson which provides all grain corporations must mall to the labor commissioner every day a list of the prices paid by them on that day. The labor com missioner may publish these prices ss he may see fit It Is claimed the bill will prevent discriminatory prices In- different parts of the state. . Senator Sackett wants an Investigation of Nebraska Insurance companies and to day Introduced a bill providing, for an In vestigation to be held beginning nest May. His resolution provides for an Investigation committee of nine members, four from the senate and Bye from the house. the pmprlate resolutions next Monday St convening ot the senate. . A bill Introduced Into the senste by Burns of Lancaster provide a change In the methods of granting street railway franrhlses and places all street railways under the Jurisdiction of the state railway commission. Franchises are to be grantoH for certain definite lines which mustv bo described specifically. The railway com mission le given power p regulate street car rates and fares snd other matters per taining to the companies. The house turned down a motion by Clarke to make his terminal taxation bill a special order for Thursday. The prl mery bill had already been made a specUl order for Wednesday, which is also the date the Wilson resolution on the unit system of assessing railroads Is to be discussed. When Clarke made his motion the house was in no mood for further special orders and on a rising vote the motion waa lost. fa It 1 c 3 C 1517 Farnam St. RFRRFITS 1517 Earnam St, Firot Spring ffering ROl'TIKH PROCEKDISCli Of SENATE Committee of the Whole Acts on Many I ' Bills.
