Contributions on Timely Subject
' ot Exceeding Two Kandred Words
Are Xante from Oar Beader.
Initiative and Pefereadam.
MIXDEN, Neb.. Dec. 11-To the Editor
of The Bee: It seems that much is writ
ten on the Initiative and referendum with
out giving the subject the least thought
This state has had practical tests of the I
referendum at various times In Its past j
history and each time It has certainly J
proven that the people have not taken the j
Interest necessary to qualify them to vote
as It Is argued they would if permitted j
through the referendum. !
To amend our state constitution the leg
islature performs the Initiative and pre
tares the amendment which Is later pub
lished In dallies and weeklies broadcast
over the ttate Immediately before the elec
tion, when Interest In politics is greatest,
for three months and voted upon by the
people, whtrh Is the rame function as the
referendum.
Amendments were submitted to the peo
ple by the legislature which were abso
lutely non-po'.ltlcal In character and which
were of financial Interest to every tax
payer In Nebraska. During the develop
ment of Nebraska and especially during the
n'netlts It has needed every cent at home.
Yet, up until a few years ago the perma
nent school fond had, to be sent to other
slates for Investment because of limita
tions Imposed by our constitution upon the
class of securities the money may be In
vested In. Durlrg this time our own schools
had to sell their bonds In the eat at an
advanced rate while our own money went
east at a lower iate." To remedy this the
legislature, without being forced to It by
any Initiative or referendum, proposed to
the people an amendment to the constitu
tion which would permit of the Investment
In our own school bonds and other securi
ties of the permanent school fund. Tet
this smendtnent failed for a lock of ma
jority of the votes cast at that election some
fifteen years ago.
Later this amendment waa carried, how
ever, by a subterfuge whereby the Ignorant
or uninformed voter was caught voting for
the amendment Instead of against It. The
legislature, full of the much hsted poli
ticians, passed a law whereby political con
ventions could take action favorable to
the amendment and such action would bind
every straight vote on that party ticket
unless specifically voted against it by the
voter. Conventions, of course, are always
made up of scheming politicians and they
devised this scheme to get a necessary ma
jority for the above permanent school fund
Investment amendment and also for the
railway commission amendment which has
worked so much good to Nebraska.
In this year of grace, 1910, when the peo
ple rule by primary votea and referendum
another test again proved a failure. The
democratic legislature proposed the wise
amendment to limit the qualifications of
voters to cltisens who have attained full
dtlsenshlp.. This amendment failed of get
ting a majority vote at the primary of the
democratic party, tha party most responsi
ble for Its proposal and tha parry and Its
leader the moat clamorous for the referen
dum. . Again It failed at the general eleo
tlon, although It was given the benefit of
all the straight votes cast by the republi
can, prohibition and populist parties, and
also all Individual votes cast by the demo
crats.. If referendum works aa satisfactorily on
general laws aa It does on the amending of
our constitution It certainly will be a fail
ure. It has always been a failure wher
ever tried In the past The fate of Jesus
Christ was referred to the people by Pilate
and history records his fate.
Think of the people selecting United
Plates supreme Judges with the care and
discretion our most-wise president Is now
doing.
One hundred and thirty years of republi
can form of government haa brought us
the leadership among nations. Our sys
tem of government is being copied In whole
or modified form the world over. Gladstone
declared It the most perfect scheme of popu
lar government that could ba devised. All
forms of government do not work exact
Justice. Was there a greater miscarriage
of nominations than that of D&hlman? And
yet how near waa he elected.
This letter haa outgrown its permitted
limitations and therefore must be out short
Respectfully, x CITIZEN.
Two Holdups Are
Given the Limit
Judge Estelle Sentence! the High
waymen Who Held . Up Walnut
Hill Pharmacy.
For the first time In his life. Judge Je
B. Estelle of the criminal division of tha
district court sentenced two men convicted
of highway robbery, gave them "the
limit," as the police and prosecutors of
criminals call It The Judge sentenced
Charles Morley, alias Craig, and James
Evans, alias Smith, robbers of the Walnut
Hill pharmacy, to serve fifteen years at
hard labor In the atate penitentiary.
Morley and Evans perpetrated one of the
most daring holdups in recent years when
they walked Into the Walnut Hill phar
macy and at revolver points compelled the
proprietor to fork over all the money In
hla cash drawer, 128. the night of October
tl. Four small boys were In the store, wit
nessed the holdup and testified against
Morley and Evans at their trial In district
court two weeks ago.
When Judge Estelle asked the convicted
men what they had to say for themselves
they told "ghost" stories, relating their
many alleged hardships and declaring that
they had to be holdups or starve.
"I never had two more dangerous men
before me than you are," said the Judge.
boring his eyes Into Morley and Evans. "I
never had two more dangerous men. I have
no more doubt that you went out and
held up that store than that I am sitting
here. The penalty pr6vlded by law for
your offenses Is three to fifteen yeara and
you fellows are going to get the limit." The
court then passed formal sentence. Morley
took a step towards the court and started
to tpeak. Sheriff Bralley stepped forward
and dragged him away aa the Judge said:
"I don't want to hear any more. I do
everything I can for such fellows as you
whenever there Is a possibility of their
being helped."
Morley and Evans have served peniten
tiary sentences for highway robbery, Mor
ley in Missouri and Evans in Iowa. Judge
Eatelle was apprised of lhe facta before
the men were brought up for sentence.
He also waa told that Evana. who on the
wltneas stand claimed to be married to a
woman with whom he haa associated lo
Omaha, haa a wife and four children In

I OMAHA CLUB IS REMODELED
Reception Thursday Evening to Mem
bers of the Club.
EVERYTHING HAS BEEN CHANGED
Kitchen Enlarge!, Windows Lowered,
Stairs Chanpted, Honnia Made DIN
ferent and Many Other Alter
nttnna for Comfort.
Members of the Omaha club who attend 1
the opening reception Thursday evening j
will find A heAilttfnllv rahu hi II t n t cA elnh
house. Joseph S. Sturdy, the Chicago ex- t
pert on Interior decorating, has been at
work for several months with his staff of
workmen and the rooms and woodwork as
well as the furniture have all been made i
over. In every design a harmony of color
and form has been sought for and there
Is a prevailing softness of tone that la car
ried out even In tho leaded glass of the
windows. The woodwork Is an antique oak
finish all the rooms on all three floors
and the Irish tuft rugs are In smooth light
greens and browns. The walls and celilncs
aro changed even to the chandeliers and
doorways.
Air of the rooms, although simple and
subdued, are distinctly masculine in tone
except for the ladles' suite. The larger
dining room of this suite Is a charming
combination of silver and green, the cur
tains under grten overhanglngs are the
finest lace and the electrolier and brackets
are of crystal.
The Important changes In the general
lnyout of the rooms are the lowering of
the windows that overlook the street, the
throwing together Into one large reception
room the two rooms to the right of the
entrance hall, the building of a special
entrance passage from the Twentieth street
entrance to the ladles' cafe and to the
office without passing through the loung
ing rooms, the new arrangement of the
stairway which makes It more graceful
and convenient and the extension of the
kitchen. The kitchen has been not only
extended, but fitted with more commodious
ice boxes and ranges.
The work done by Mr. Sturdy has been
very satisfactory to the committee and
the members are now convinced that the
new comforts and beauties were worth the
months of homelessness and the $40,000 that
they cost.
