H. R. 284, the bill appropriating $190,000 for
buildings at the state farm. The bill was
Indefinitely postponed several days ago
and In order that this action might be re
versed an attempt Was made by the friends
of the bill to bring it back for further
consideration. King of Polk led in the
fight for a reconsideration of the bill and
made the motion to recall It.
Senator King argued the question of ap
propriations for buildings at the university
at some length. He said there were more
students In the mechanic arts department
at the university than there were at the
state farm and he thought If there were
any way to do It some provision should
be made for their accommodation at the J
university. He praised the management of t
the university and declared the per capita
cost of running the Institution was smaller
than that of any similar Institution In the
adjoining states.
Epperson and Root made the principal
arguments against reversing the former
action. Epperson declared the appropria
tions this year were sure to exceed the
Income of the state, and while he was In
favor of liberal appropriations for the State
university, he thought the state should pay
off some of Its debts during prosperous
times. Root also protested against bringing
the bill back at this time." If l Is found
an, additional appropriation can be made
without exceeding the Income for the next
blennlum, he said, he would be In favor
of doing it at some time.

Bond Aid BUI Saved.
The senate by a large majority refused
this morning to Indefinitely postpone H. R.
628, by Hamer, providing that cities, vil
lages and precincts may Issue bonds In
aid of the construction of steam railroads.
When the bill waa reported back from the
railroad committee Phillips of Holt county
asked that It go to the sifting committee
file. As a substitute Epperson of Clay
moved that It be Indefinitely postponed.
After a long discussion on tbe question of
voting bonds for railroads the Epperson
motion Was lost by the vote of S to 17.
The bill Is Intended to cure a '"Joker"
in a bill passed early in the session which
cut out from the present statute the pro
vision allowing precincts to vote bonds in
aid of railroads. The bill was ostensibly
one to allow the voting St bonds to aid
telephone companies. Epperson of Clay
was Interested in the psssage of that bill
In, order to head off some elections In aid
of an Interurban railroad running through
Hamilton county. The measure had been
algned by the governor before Its real im
port was known. ' Some of the senators
from the sparsely settled districts imme
diately got to work to undo what tbey had
unwittingly done. The Hamer bill allows
bonds to be voted by a two-thirds vote in
aid bf steam railroads, but cuts out electric
roads. The action takes today Indicates
the bill will pass the senate.

The Jenlson bill to appropriate JRo.Ono for
the purpose of establishing norma! 'rein
ing courses In four-year high schools of
the state was recommended for paasage
by the senate this morning after a long
debate. Under tbe terms of the bill high
schools providing normal courses are to
be allowed 1360 a ar by the state. Ep
person of Clay, who favored the bill, de
clared he purpose Is to make up for ths
devastation in the ranks of country school
teachers caused by matrimony. The normal
schools, he said, were able to supply only
enough teachers to fill the high school
faculties, leaving the country schools with
out trained teachers. Goodrich of Fillmore
also made an argument In favor of It.
King of Polk and Hoot opposed It, declaring
It was Intended as a sop thrown out to the
different high schools of' the state, the
amount being too small to accomplish any
practical good. - s
The senate this afternoon went through a
number of appropriation bills and In all
cases but two upheld the action of the
committee on finance, ways and means.
One of the exceptions was as to H. R.
X,d appropriating 0,000 to aid small school
districts which are unable without state
aid to hold seven months school each year.
The amount appropriated was cut from
$0,000 to tffi.000.
Walsh's bill appropriating money for per
manent buildings on the state fair grounds
was Indefinitely postponed.
Ths senate committee hod reduced the
amount of money appropriated from $711,000
to $20,000, but it wss reported on the floor
of the senate that members of the State
Board of Agriculture had said they wanted
the whole amount or none and the senate
took the board at its word and killed the
bill.
The senate this afternoon indicated it is
getting ready to adjourn finally by voting
to appoint a conference committee to meet
with the house committee appointed a week
ago to decide on the day for final adjourn
ment. Ths motion had been killed at three
different times, but when King renewed it
this afternoon It was p.jsed unanimously.
Lieutenant Governor Hopewe'.J appointed as
the committee King, Burns of Lancaster
and Holbrook.
Adjournment Prnlinhly Thwredar.
The conference committee appointed by
the senate and house on adjournment will
meet in the morning. It seems to be the
general Impression that the committee will
decide on Thursday for the final adjourn
ment Tonight the committee on claims met in
the auditor's offlce and when some of the
claims which are slightly moss covered
came np for consideration the burglar
alarm in the treasurer's office began to
ring. The committee, however, Is not euro
there was any significance in that.

The employes of the house through Chief
Clerk Barnard presented Speaker Nettleton
with a beautiful Morris chair this morn
ing. He replied' to the presentation speech
very feelingly. He said no legislature ever
had such, faithful help. In presenting the
chair; Mr. Barnard spoke as follows:
Mr. Speaker This, the thirtieth session
of the legislature Is about to come to a
close with Its work finished.
We will all soon go to our several homes
and take up our several vocations In life
and the thirtieth session will only be a
pleasant memory to us all. Yet In this
memory will remain the friendship made
that of which one of the poets has said:
'"True friendship, like the InHnortal Soul,
Is too good. to tie believed." We may not
all believe this yet we all feel that we have
made many friendships during our short
time together that will go with us through
life.
And now, Ml1. Speaker, the employes of
this session feel that they cannot let this
session come to a. close without in some
small way showing their appreciation of
your uniform kindness toward them and
their esteem for you end as It Is quite
the style to hand your fviends a package,
we have decided thnt the speaker has one
coming on bohalf of the employes of the
thirtieth Session of the Nebraska legis
lature, I present you with this chair. We
hope you will receive It In the same, way
that It Is given and as you rest from your
labors, may you have only the plea.antest
memories of this session and your em
ployes. The house tonight decided to Indefinitely
postpone all house bills which have not
already been passed. This will leave about
fifty senate bills for that body to consider

ROOSEVELT'S POSITION CLEAR
(Continued from' First Page.)
...
been of Improper discrimination in railroad
rates.
But I am convinced that there must be
an increased regulatory and Supervisory
power exercised by the government over
the railways. Indeed. I would like it ex
ercised tp a much greater extent than I
have any Idea of pressing at the moment.
For Instance, I would greatly like to have
It exercised In the matter of overcapital
ization. I am convinced that the "wages
fund" would be larger If there was no
fictitious capital upon which dividends had
to be paid. I need hsrdly say that this
does not mean hostility to wealth. -All t
want, in any rate legislation Is to give
the government an efficient supervisory
ower, which shall be exercised as scrupu
ously to prevent injustice to the railroads
as to prevent their doing injustice to the
public. Our endeavor is to see that those
big railroad men and big shippers who are
not responsive to the demands of Justice
are required to who what their fellows who
are responsive to the demands of justice
would be glad to do of their own accord.
From the Messages.
In his message to congress at the be
ginning of the first session of the Fifty
ninth congress, December S, 1906, the presi
dent said: -
In order to insure a healthy social and
Industrial life every big corporation should
be held responsible by and be accountable
to some sovereign power strong enough to
control Its conduct. I am In no sense" hos
tile to corporations. Thli Is an age of com
binations and any effort to prevent all com
binations will be not only useless, but In
the end vicious, because of the contempt
for law which the failure to enforce law
Inevitably produces. H'e should, more
over, recognise In cordial and ample fashion
the Immense good elTect by corporate
agencies In a country sui-h as ours, and the
wealth of Intellect, enemy and fidelity de
voted to their service, mid therefore nor
mally to the service of ihe public by their
officers and directors. Tte corporation has
come to stay. Just as the trade union has
come to stay. Each enn do and baa done
frre.at good. Each shorld bo favored so
ong s It does good. But each should be
sharply checked where it acts against law
and .visile.
Until the national government obtains, In
some manner which the wisdom of con
gress may suggest, proper control over the
big corporations engaged In Interstate com
mercethat is, over the great majority of
the big corporations It will be Impossible
to deal adequately with those evils.
This power to regulate rates, like all simi
lar powers over the business world, should
be exercised with moderation, caution and
self-restraint, but it should exist so that
It can be effectively exercised when the
need arises. I do not believe In the
government undertaking any work whlcu
can with propriety be left in private hands.
But neither do I Dellve In the government
flinching from overseeing any work when
It becomes evident that abusea are sure to
obtain therein unless there Is governmental
supervision. ,
It is because, in my Judgment, public
ownership of railroads Is highly undesir
able and would pro! ably In this country
entail far-reaching disaster that I wish to
see such supervision and regulation of them
In the Interest of the public as will make it
evident that there is no need for public
ownership.
EtTeet of One I -am.
In his message to congress at the begin
ning of the second session of the Fifty
ninth congress, December 1 1906, the presi
dent said:
Tbe Interstate commerce law has rather
amusingly falalfied tti predictions, both of
those iio ta4rted that It would ruin the
railroads and of tboue who asserted that
It did not go far enough and would ao
compllsh nothing, liur.ng ths last five
months the railroads have shown Increased
earnings and some of them unusual.
We hold that the governmeut snould not
conduct the business of the nation, but
that It should exercise such supervision
as will inture its being conducted In tha
Interest ot the nation. Our aim la. so far!
aa may be, to secure ror all oecent, hard
working men, equality of opportunity and
equality of burden.
The actual working of our laws has
Shown that ths effort to prohibit all com-
! blnatlon, good or bad, Is noxious whers It
! Is not Ineffective. Combination of capital.
lias cotiiiiiua-ion or labor is a neceraary
element of our present industrial system.
Often railroads would I ke to combine for
the purpose of preventing a big shipper

la made "by authority" that President
Roosevelt Is in favor of the election ot
Frederick A. Busse, the republican candi
date for mayor. ,
Democratic leaders assert that the tele
gram, emanating as it does from a news
paper which la strongly in favor of Busse,
is discredited In advance, and that even
though it did come from the president
himself it la too late to stop the progress
of the vote, which has set In strongly for
Dunne. Chairman O'Connell, the demo
cratic campaign manager, said today that
the election of Dunne la absolutely cer

A FRIENDLY GROCER
Dropped a Yaluabls' Hint about Coffee.
"For about eight years." writes a alien,
woman, "I suffered from nervousness
part of ths time down In bed with nerv
ous prostration.
"Sometimes I would get numb and it
would be almost impossible for roe te speak
for a spell. At others, I would have se
vere b'Hous attacks, and my heart would
flutter painfully wben I would walk fast
or sweep.
"I have taken enough medicine to start
a small drug store, without any benefit.
One evening, our grocer was asking Hue
band how I was and he urged that I quit
coffee s refuse Postum, so he brought
home a pk.fr1 and I made It according to
directions and we were both delighted with
It.
"So we quit coffee altogether and u&ed
only Postum. I began to get better In a
month's time and look like another person,
the color came back to my cheeks. I be
gan to iWp well, my appetite was good
and I commenced to take on fiesb and be

house.
"Finally I wss able to do all niy own
work, without th leaat sign of my old
trouble. I am so thankful for the little
book. 'The Road te Wellvllle.' It ha done
me so much good. I baven't taken medi
cine of any kind for six months and djn't
need any. '
"A friend of our wbo did not like Post

she learned to boil It long enough, her

With th expiration of Mayor Wavr's
term the republican 'organisation, which
was in September, successful in municipal
affairs until two year ago, when it was
defeated in a memorable fight on th leas
ing of the gas works, again comes Into full
power. Mayor Reyburn was elected on a
straight party ticket and the members of
his cabinet are strict party men, Buth
branches of th city council reorganised by
electing as their presiding officers and other
employe men who are prominently Identi
fied with the republican organization. ' The
minority represented by the City party, th
reform organization, which fought th reg
ular republicans, la stronger, however, than
It ha been in year, but not enough so to
control or dlrsot legislation.
Former Mayor . Weaver will retlr from
