should have the privilege, but as I con
sider this an unfair asd unconstitutional
measure, I vots no.
Baker of York-Mr. Sueaker: If this bill
is now defeated there Is yet time enough to
introduce a fair bill on this subject. I
therefore vote no.
Colton of York Mr. Speaker: I vote no
on this bill. It Is absolutely unfair to the
towns In the eastern part of the state. I
therefore vote no.
Watte of Hherman Mr. Bueaker: In ex
planation of my vote I wish to stats that
after due consideration of this bill I have
decided that It Is not a fair proposition. I
therefore vote no.
Hardin of Harlan Mr Speaker: I voted
for II. It. 246 when It came up for Indefinite
postponement. I voted yes. as 1 waa not
informed a. to what my constituents felt
abolt the matter of capital removal. HI nee
that time I have heard by letter and In
person from several of my constituents on
this matter and they arc all unanimously
opposed to the bill. I therefore vote no.
lavlor of Culburtvon Mr. Speaker: In
explaining my vote I desire to say that I
voted against the motion to Indefinitely
podtpone the bill In order that I should
writs, home to learn what my people de
sired me to do. Doing so, I am Informed
that they are against the proposition as
proposed, t I am perfectly willing to vote
upon a simple proposition as to whether
or not the capital shall be re-located, and
If the people of Nebraska shall vots to re
locate It I am wllllnr that they shall then
i ay, by their voWe, where It shall be re
located. Therefore, I vots no.
Cuackanbush of Nemaha Believing that
the voters of th entire state have the
light to a fie and unrestricted right In
the location of the seat of government,
anj believing that this bill unjustly limits
th territory within which th voters of
th stat will have th right to make such
selection, should It becoms a law, I vote
no.
Bushes of Kimball Mr. Speaker: I be
lieve that It Is right to let the people vote
on any question that Is of general Inter
est. My distiict Is about as far from Lin
coln as any in th state, .and yet since
coming here J hav not received one line
asking me to vote for this bill, while the
preas of th district has been silent on the ;
nubject. so far as I konw. However, it
th promoters of this measure will Intro
duce a bill that. In my Judgment, Is fair
1 will support tl and gtv th people a
chance to vol on It. I therefore vote no.
Baasett of Buffalo Mr. Speaker: 1 am
willing to support a bill whereby the peo
ple ut th stats may vote upon the ques
llun of re-locating the state capital, the
proposition to be submitted In th follow,
log form: "Shall th capital of th ststs
) re-located?' If the question receive a
uiahxity of tli votes cast, then th loca
tion to be determined by a further vote
of the people. In my Judgment H. R. No.
NH is unfair in Its provisions and does not
permit a fair and aquar vote of all th
people upon th question of re-location,
and I, therefore, vote no.

Joseph Tuffiel of Marshalltown. Still
Active in Business, Says He Will
Live to Be Hundred and Ten.
MARSHALLTOWN. la. Feb. l0.-(Spe-clal.)
One hundred and one years of age,
the oldest F.Ik In the world, active, vig
orous and daily prosecuting his business,
Joseph Tuffree of this city, probably one
of the mont remarkable men of the state,
today quietly celebrated his 101st anniver
sary. Mr. Tuffree celebrated his loOth
anniversary by being Initiated Into Marshall
lodge No. 312. Benovelent and Protective
Order of Klks.
So active is the old man that he not
only Is able to personally take care of his
real estate business, but ha Is rugged
enough so that he saws and splits all the
wood and klndlli.g used to heat his of
fice. From all outward appearances Mr. Tuf
free Is no older that he was when he was
ninety. He says he Is going to live to
be 1 10. but already he has shattered practi
cally all central Iowa records, and there
is probably not another man of his age
