therefor presented to me a measure which
legalise something which many of our

to which the majority thereof would have
not hln to aay but would have to aubmlt
to Sunday baa ball whether a purt or all
of the community want It or not. Thla I
manlfeatly unjust and unfair and I cannot
bring myself to sign a messwr of thla
kind that prohibits those communities that
may b opposed to Sunday base ball from
obtaining any relief and because of thoae
objection and reason which 1 have
pointed out, I veto tills meneure. towlt:

Foirih Meaaare ta Veto.
The Sunday baa ball bill. S. F. 36, Is
the fourth measure which Qr.vrrnnr Aldrlch
haa vetod thla session. The others were
the Taylor-Uolezal stock yards bill, the
raise In pay for Douglas county deputy
attorney and Tanner' bill chancing the
terms of school board membera In South
Omaha. It has been usual heretofore to
have about W bills In the hands of the
governor by thla at mo of the session
Thla session only fifty-four have been
passed by both houaea and sent down.
Forty-nine have been signed and one. the
Omaha charter, la still to be considered.
Of the bills signed thirty-three were from
the houae and el x teen from the senate.
Real Ratal I.lcrnae.
Falley's reel estate dealers' license bill,
II. R. 101, defeated at the morning session,
was saved by the author In the afternoon
and passed, 57 to 39. The bill met with
determined opposition because It keeps per
sons from selling any real estate except
their own without being a registered
broker. The license fee If $T. and the
organised real estate brokers assert that
any man should be able to pay that much.
Vajtreralty Bill Beaten.
t'nlveralty removal was defeated on third
reading In the house this afternoon by a
vote of 41 to 61 The action was not alto
gether unexpected although last week on a
teat vote removal was approved. During
the last two or three days the aentlment
has been gradually changing. The op
position has been growing mors confident
snd although the Lancaster county dele
gation was not as a whole active on
either aide there was enough influence
exerted to swing the vote.
The university Is now left without any
appropriation for buildings. --The special
fcommlttr recommendd Removal on a
1 mill levy or as an alternative Improve
ment on a one-half mill levy. The half
mill has been rejected, however, and by
killing this bill the legislature has de
prived the university of any funds for the
next two years except for the 1 mill
maintenance levy.

Taft Talks to
Methodist Ministers
in Baltimore
President Sayi He is Like Preachers,
in that He Can Only Make Rec
ommendations. WASHINGTON. April S President Taft
enlivened the early morning proceedings
of the Baltimore conference of the Metho
dist Episcopal conference today by saying
he could only do with congress what min
isters hope to do with their congregations,
make his recommendations and then pray
for the best results. The president arose
early, motored out to the Douglas Memorial
cnurch, wher the conference is being held
nnd was back In the White House shortly
after o'clock.
The president said he realized tffe Im
mediate Influence of the church.
"It has been my good fortune," he said,
"to know how much the support of militant
Methodism contributes to the progress of
the government and civilization -of the
world."
The president declared that If he had to
prepare two or three sermons a week he
would retire to a cloisture. In closing his
remarks he begged to be excused, "because
In view of what was coming tomorrow there
may be som trimming of lamps necessary."

and 170. As to the volume of business
done, the weight of daily business Is wholly
In Nebraska's favor, with 30S.159 pounds,
as against Colorado with 120.809 pound"
and Wyoming 66,215 pounds, nnd of th
total Nebraska mall the main line of the
I'nlon Pacific handles 147,216 pounds. Ot
the Wyoming mail 47,498 pounds are -for
the Oregon Short Une west of Granger,
which goes through both Omaha and
Cheyenne."
Revenue Point Argued.
If the question of revenue is to be con
sidered Mr. Rose water said that Omaha
and South Omaha furnished much larger
revenue than did either Denver or Chev
enne, Denver being next to Omaha In
volume of business done at those offices.
At to the number of postofflces In each
state by railways Nebraska had 1.059. Colo
rado 903 and Wyoming 407, and of that
number In Wyoming three-fourths were In
touch with Nebraska. Mr. Rosewater next
took up a number of poat-tl routes by
stipes and gave some Interesting figures,
which were even a surprise to miny of
the delegation prestnt. The number of
-postal routes in Nebraska are 4:i, with a
total mileage of 12.073 and an annual ex
penditure of 12.841,760; Colorado has 4:!9
postal routes. 9.233 mi lease end annual ex
penditures of ISOK6H2; Wyoming has 231
postal routes, 5,960 mileage and annual ex
penditures of S.173.874. As to rural routes
there are In Nebraska 1.028, In Colorado
134 and In Wyoming seven.
"Omaha," Mr. Rosewater said, "should
be preferred from the standpoint that it
would bring Washington closer to this ter
ritory than any of the other cities men
tioned, as Omaha Is closer to Washington
by seventeen hours, and Is thirty-four
hours closer for receipt and answer to
Washington. Omaha has an additional ad
vantage in question this time, there being
but one hour difference between Washing
ton nnd Omaha, while there is two hours
between Washington and the other cities
named. The selection of Omaha would
ba In the Interest of economy and saving
of expense to the department, for there
would be less travel pay to Omaha than
to other cities that are candidates for the
headquarters. Omaha has large and com
modious buildings, with ample facilities
for the care and comfort of clerks, while
at present there Is no accommodation at
Denver, and the building being erected may
not be completed for y ears.
o tilvaataira at llrnvcr,
"Denver may be closer to the center of
this new division." continued Mr. Kose
water. "but with the single exception of
Atlanta all division headquarters are lo
cated at gateways, such as Chicago. St.
I-ouls, Cleveland, San Francisco and New
York. Denver is on no railway that car
ries eastern mail for Pacific coast points
and It does not have a through transconti
nental line. Omaha Is on two such lines,
the I'nlon Pacific and the Burlington. "
Mr. Rosewater called 'attention to the
irUrlington's Hillings line and also the
Black Hills branch of the Northwestern,
trains, on which are made up at Omaha,
supervising offices of these railroads being
'dialed In Omuha. "About three-fourths of
the inlleaije of the proposed division will
be operated from Omaha." said Mr. Rose
water." a fact which should have great
weight with the Postotfice department
when It comes to selecting a location. Tills
would biin railway and pustuffice officials
closely in touiir, thus Undin? to constant
i improvement of the service."
IAt the close of Mr. Rosewater' pres
entation of Omaha a claims Senator Hitch
cock auggested that some of the lines of
I rails were Inaccessible to Denver, trans
continental lines neither touching al l liey
ii'tne ror Denver. St-nutor Brown offered
i the suggestion that two of the great trans-
ci rtinental lines were npi rated from
Omaha, which should b seriously consid
ered as a factor in Its selection as di
vision hcadijuartera. Senator liiiiloock
called attention to tbe fact 1'iat Omaha
occupies SiXU-eulli pluce. In lani. clear
ances and ltd wholesale business 1 lin-mtai-uratdy
larger tnan that of Denver.

Omaha should be selected because It was
headquarters of the Department of Mis
souri and would therefor bring army peo
pl and th Postofflce departmtnt very
much closer than If headquarters should
be located at either Denver, Ogden or Salt
Lake City. He spok of the growth of
wtstern Nebraska, due to dry farming
and Irrigation, and predicted " for It a
magnificent future. - He said the postal
business would more than double in the
western section In the next few years.
Judge Klnkaid also took a hand In th
presentation by emphasising the growth of
district In the last few years and said
that not quite half of the postofflces in
Nebraska were located In the Sixth district.
He believed that Nebraska would show tre
meddous gain tn the next few years upon
through and local business and emphat
ically remarked that ths preponderance of
argument was In favor of the city of
Omaha.
Upon completion of the argument the en
tire delegation paid their respects to Post
master General Hitchcock, stating to him
that while the delegation might be divided
subjects, they Were. a unit In favor of
Omuha getting the new railway mall divi
sion headquarters. Mr. Hitchcock re
sponded by saying that heTwould give th
matter his most earnest consideration and
would examine the statistics left With tha
assistant postmaster general by Mr. Rose
water. It is understood that hearings
have been asked by Denver, Salt Iaka
City and Ogden thus far, but Cheyenne Is
expected to break Into the conteat before
a decision Is reached.
