(From a Staff Correspondent) LINCOLN, Jan. 16. (Special.) Nebraska's "economical, business like, democratic" legislature in session under the shadow of Falrview, regardless of law and order, has completed the first leg of Its Journey. The first two weeks of Its existence will be remembered for the laws It has broken, tha employes It has employed and the little it has accomplished. In tha house ninety-one bills have been introduced and in the senate ninety. Not a bill has yet been returned from the printer, no standing committee has reported and neither house has resolved itself Into a committee of tha whole for the discussion of any measures. Tet Junketing commlt tees have been sent oat at the expense of tha state to take a look at state Institu tions and two and three-day adjournments have been taken each week. Not only has 'the senate violated tlie plain law In regard to the number of employes allotted to the. upper house, but its printing committee has also violated the law in se curing supplies. The . law - specif icolly re quires that the letting of contracts for printing shall boli under the supervision of the Board of Public Lands and Buildings. But that Is a dead letter so fat aa the senate Is concerned. The printing com mittee of tha senate let tho contract for printing blank committee reports and was Just in the act of letting the contract for letter-heads when someone called the com mittee's attention to the law. . Then the bids were brought to the office of the secre tary of state and here Is what was dis covered: The committee 'rolled out three bids' for this work and each bid was from a dem ocratic print shop. "If tha bids are all right," said Secretary of State Junktn, "no doubt the board will let the contract under your bids." But when the secretary saw the three democratic bids and learned that only these firms had. been asked to bid, he stopped proceedings and other firms wer notified to get in their bids. But on the printing of blanks for com mittee reporfs the senate printing com mittee Just went ahead and let the contract and that ended the matter for the present. In the house the printing committee learned of the existence of the law before It got busy taking care of friends, so there is no trouble from that epd of tha legisla ture about printing yet But the people have not yet been bilked out of their hard earned money to pay political obligations of the leaders of the democratic legislature. The wise men who framed tha constitution probably had in mind, that some day Nebraska would have Bryan democratic legislature. So the office of state auditor was established and this official was given authority and di rected to Investigate all claims against the state. Ever! a claim allowed by the legis lature is subject to review by the state auditor. He has the final say so.. When tha Illegally employed help of the senate comes before the state auditor with their vouchers, Nebraska will know whother tha people are compelled to pay the ex penses of candidates for office. The show down will be on tha question of whether the Douglas county aenatora can with impunity set aatda existing laws to care for political hangers-on. There . will also be a show down when the illegally let contracts for legislative printing are presented for settle ment , MANY RELATIVES OJT PAYROLL. Democratic Legislature la Strong- on Nepotlam. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN. Jan. 1. (Special.) What is considered tha biggest Joke of tha legisla ture ao far Is tha contemplated Introduc tion of a bill to prevent nepotism In the years your home is yonr own. to yourself. Reserve 117,000.00 Skaters East Side, Cars. etae houaa, state Inatltutiona and tha Judiciary. Such a Mil la aa sura of passage through this economical, businesslike demor ratio legislature aa a freese-up In August It will be recalled that nepotism was one of tha big oarda of tha democrats In the last campaign, and so thoroughly was It dlscueaed and ao thoroughly did the democratic candidates for the legislature learu of the details of tha system that now It la almost possible for a bill to get through one house without leaving the hands of a family. Republicans and democrats alike have condemned the practice of nepotlam, which has reached such proportions that state government has become a family affair But the obstacles in the way of the pas sage of such a bill are Insurmountable. Take it in the house alone and the death knell of the bill is already sounded. Nepotism runs rampant through this leg islature. Here are a few of the obsta cles lu the way of the enactment of the bill Into law. Henry and son, Snyder and son. Brown and son, Bates and daugh ter, and nephews and nieces and . other relative! too numerous to mention. During the last : campaign the republi can party had to pay tha penalty for tha employment of relatives by state officers, as this was made one of the Issues of the fight On their pledges to wipe out nepotism the democratio legislature has builder! a system which makes the em ployment of relatives by republicans seem amateurish. WILL FORCE BRYATf IXTO OPEJT Option Members May Addreaa Him an Open Letter, (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 16. (3peclaL)-Slowly but surely the web Is being tightened around William J. Bryan. The Indications are now he will for the first time be forced to take a stand upon a local question about which democracy Is divided. Mr. Bryan will either bo sent a letter asking him to state definitely whether he Is for or against county option,' or perhaps he may bo aoked to answer that question when ho addresses the legislature. Incidentally, no date has yet been set for that event, though tho Invitation' has been extended to the presidential candidate. Some there are who wonder if the Peerless One Is afraid to address the legislature and run tho riek of answering embarrassing questions. The fuct that Mr. Bryan gave his aid to the anti-option crowd In the organization of the house, since which time he has been keeping under cover aa much as possible has stirred up the other side and they want either his help or his public opposition. Several county option advocates this morning discussed the matter and one of the leading members of the house, a demo crat, decided that the best thing to do under the circumstances would be to address an open letter to the presidential candidate and ask for a definite and final decision In the matter. The whole question of the propriety of this action was gone over at this conference this morning and It was the opinion of those Interested that tt would be perfectly proper for Mr. Bryan to make his ideas on this question known to the legislature. As he Is the leader of his party not only In the state but the nation, prominent members of the legislature be Heve that he owes It to his party to take a stand one way or the other. There seems no doubt now that Mr. Bryan will be given an opportunity to express himself that is if the interested parties do not lose their nerve over Sunday. JERRY HOWARD OX WARPATH Soath Omaha City Charter Bill the Occasion. (From a 8taff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. lS.-(8peclal.)-JaremIah Howard Is mad, awful mad, and he is down In this dear old Lincoln all by his lonesome tearing his hair and doubling up his fists for one Senator Tanner from South Omaha Between exrjoslons he is penning a few amendments to the South Omaha charter bill. Tha publication this morning that Tanner had the charter bill ready for in trod uct ion Monday and the substance 'of wlat It contains is what upset the Oom Paul of Nebraska. Bereft of it liberal Irish accent, Jeremiah said: "The trusts and the business men have gotten together and squeezed labor out of the charter. All right, all right, but I will catch It when it gets In here. They have cut out the double shift firemen. Ill sea to that, too. That Is the work cf Lawyer Sears and the city attorney. Sears is the packing house attorney. That's all right, but they shan't murder labor that way. 'I am preparing an amendment that will fix them. I will provide that no lawyer who has a case against the rlty shall ba l'.glble for city attorney. See? What will that do to Mr. Williams, the city attorney? He had to hire another lawyer to defend the city against a $28,000 law suit because ha waa tha attorney for the plaintiff." Then Jeremiah went on to tell how ha called a meeting and selected a committee to get up charter amendments and Sears and Williams took charge of the matter. "I called the meeting at the city hall and by that you see they had to let me In at tha meeting. When tha people all got there I thanked the laboring people for electing me and promised them I would stand by them. Then I called on Mr. Sears to speak, and I said, 'I am glad the corpor ations are here by their representative, Mr. fl.ars." You sea, I put him right on record Then Soars and City Attorney Williams got busy and they fixed up a committee to make the charter amendments. I got my labor people together and at another meet ing we threw them over the transom on a vote. Now here comes Tanner with a new charter. All right, let him come. I'll get the double shift for the firemen Just tha same and they won't raise any salaries that I don't want raised." SHELDON WRITES TO AUDITOR Coa aiders Himself Entitled to Sevea Dare' Pay. LINCOLN, Jan. 11 (Special Telegram.) Ex-Oovemor Sheldon today sent a letter to Auditor Barton defending his claim to seven and a baU days' extra pay during the first of the present year.

Quite a number of terrible murders have recently occurred in Ireland, and several of these crimes turned out to have been perpetrated by people of unsound mind. Statisticians say that lnsmlty is on the increasj in tMs country, and there has been some talk of calling a royal commis sion to deal with the whole subject of In sanity within the United Kingdom. Irish man take a certain amount of swing grace to their souls over this point, how ever, by the fact that the Increase of in sanity is not confined to Ireland, but that it is making lta ravages in Scotland. Eng land and Walea aa well. Mental experts claim that the reason hes In the terrible amount of unemployment in all aectlons of the country. In this particular respect, however, Ireland is no worse off than Eng land; in fact, her roaltlon la somewhat bet ter, owing to the great revival in Irish farm industries, nd the spread of tha co-operative movement. There are upwards of 800 co-operative farming societies In Ireland, giving employment to more than 260,0(10 people, and thia great movement conducted under the auspices of Sir Horace Plunkett has certainly aaved Ireland from tho acute unemployed crleis which con fronts England. Of course, In tha larger towns, such as Belfast and Londonderry, there la much depression. Ireland's in sanity is due more perhapa to the meager standard of living throughout tha country, and thia can only be Improved by funda mental legislation made by the Irish peo ple themselves, who know their own needa better than anyone else In tha world. Thia Is only tnother way. of course, of saying that nothing will serve Ireland In her need but home rule, pure and unaauueraxeu.
