promise was ottempted, nn effort being
made to amend the Barnes measure ro
that It would not go Into effect until De
cember 31, 1914, thus giving the pro-dlvorco
an extra year of business. This occa
sioned tho longest struggle and the

ONE AMENDMENT IS ADDED
Aliened Activity nt Ilrprrnentat lyea
of the FrtM a a Lobbrlata Will
.Mo Be Investigated hy
the Committee.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Feb. 7. (Special.) Though
violations of tho anti-lobby law stick out
llko a sore thumb, the democratic house
Is still going ahead Investigating 'ru
mors" of the activity of lobbyists and
still permitting persons seeking Bpeclal
legislation to have a free hand. Even
tho fact that W. K. Sharpe sought to In
fluence a member of the railway commis
sion Investigating committee to head off
this Investigation caused not a ripple.
The Shipley resolution to Investigate
the telephone combine was adopted with
out discussion after this paragraph had
been attached, to it, on motion of Baker
of Thomas:
Whereas. The rumor Is current that
certain representatives of the press ac
corded the privileges of the floor of this
house have been actively engaged as lob
pyists, not having registered as such as
the law requires; and.
Whereas, It 1b further rumored thut
one of such representatives was In fact
the original author of tho foregoing reso
lution; therefore, be it
Resolved, That suoh committee so ap
pointed be empowered and Instructed to
Investigate these rumors and report the
facts to the house for further consid
eration. The rumor referred to Is that a Lincoln
newspaper man has been conducting n
press bureau for the telephone companies,
the copy being sent to outside papers.
The "rumor" goes on that a representa
tive of another Lincoln sheet brought
about the Shipley resolution, and that
stilt another press representative of Lin
coln had something to do with the Bakor
amendment. The committee will go Into
the "rumors."
This Is the twenty-second day of tne
session and still no reports fro Investi
gating committees.
The Shipley resolution Is as follows:'
Text of HeDoliitlon.
Whereas, The Nebraska Telephone com
bine, having headquartere In Omaha and
Lincoln and several other places In the
atate of Nebraska, Is vigorously endeav
oring to. defeat certain proposed bills
In this legislature; and
Whereas. This seems to be the same
combine which recently assassinated tho
Independent telephone Interests of this
state by striking into the throat of legiti
mate competition the Jagged blade of
monopoly, that the blood of innocent ddll
ars might bo spilled to appease corpor
ate greed; and
Whereas, It Is not reasonable to sup
pose that undue activity on the part jt
such combine to Influence the votes of
members of the legislature against tho
pussage of such bills could be In the in
terests of the general public; nnd
Whereas, The said combine Is using Its
long distance telephone lines In the
state, through certain of its employes not
regularly registered as lobbyists, to bring
pressure upon members of this legisla
ture against the bills referred to; and,
Whereas, This organisation Is spending
large sums of money for articles in news
papers and publishing literature antng
onlilryy tho passage of such bills; there
fore, be It
IteBolved, That a committee of three
members of the standing committee on
telegraph, telephone and electric com
panies, be appointed by the speaker io
Investigate carefully any seeming Irreg
ularities on the part of lobbyists, so that
tlltft hntlRA TTINV Vnnw tf anv vlnltHlntL

Kcsolved.
-That this committee
be
clothed th full power to summon, wit
nesses 10 ascertain how much money is
being spent by lobbyists and to whom
paid, and to search records for thn nm.
of stockholders In concerns likely to be
Influenced by the passing of certain bills.
ue 11 runner.
Resolved. That any extravatrant ex.
pendlture of money by the said telephone
oomblne for lobby purposes be reported
to the State Railroad commission for Its
guidance In ponding rate cases.
SENATE FOR PURE CLOTH
(Continued from Pago One.)
only difference was that you raised the
price."
Talcott sent up an amendment making
all goods on hand January 1, 1914, exempt
from the provisions ot the law, and tin
bill went through.
Ulacnsa Road mil.
Heasty's road bill was discussed at some
length. Hoagland of Lincoln tried to
amend It by a provision that the county
commissioners should have full supervis
ion over the road fund and Its cxpedl
ttire, but was defeated. He thought that
the system used out around his home
town of North Platte, which put tho
working of the roads In tho hands of a
highway commission, was about the thing
and It had given them good roads.
GlIHa of Valley objected to the amend
ment. He said that he had been out tn
North Platte, which he would admit
was a "nice little village." and that their
roads were no better than the roads up
in Valley county. He wanted the road
supervisors and the farmers to have thi
right to soy where the work sh6uld be
done.
Cordeal said that he was a farmer, al
though possibly he didn't look It, and was
In favor of the bill and opposed to the
amendment.
Certificate for Marriage.
Probably the most Interesting discus
sion of the day was over 1(4, Heastv's
pure marriage bill. The bill provides
that "male" persons Intending to marry
shall provide themselves with a certifi
cate of health showing that they acsj
physically fit before a license may be
granted them.
Grossman ot Douglas wanted to know
why he had used the word "male."
"Is not the opposite party to the con
tract Just as liable to disease as man!'1
sold the senator.
"It It Is required that In the Interest
of a purer grade of humanity these
should be no disease Inoculation, why
should we not require both parties 13
show a certificate of good helath. In th
breeding of our stock we go to any ex.
treme to get pure stock, then why should
we not take the same precautions In re
gard to raising up a purer and better
grade of humanity in the future?"
The bill was finally amended to Include
both sexes.
The senate adjourned at noqn and will
not convene again until Tuesday after
noon at 3 o'clock.

American Suffragists
Threaten to Adopt
Militant Methods
WASHINGTON. Feb. T.-Shlvera of ap
prehension ran up and down the spine
of government officials and members of
congress today when It was learned that
that American suffragists, whose national
headquarters aro here, do not look with
entire disfavor upon the militant methods
employed by her sister suffragettes In
England against the officials of the crown
and the members of Parliament. Mrs.
Clara Colby, one of tho prominent suffra
gist leaders, told a crowced meeting of
the Federal Women's Kquallty association
last night that Uie window-breaking, police-fighting
English suffragettes had
mads possible the suffrage advancement
In the United States.
"The English women had to adopt their
methods and we should not blamo them "
said Mrs. Colby. "They always stop nt
the actual taking cf life and while I be
lieve In Deace and would not advocate
rthe militant methods for the United
States, we must admit that the work done
In England has had effect In America."
llev. Olympla Brown of Wisconsin,
president of tho association, dons not hold
the same view as Mrs. Colby. She blameu
the extreme suffragists for the recent de
feat of woman's suffrage In Wisconsin.
Proposals ot marriage are being re
ceived In almost every mall by two pretty
stenographers at the national headquar
ters as the result of the publication of a
photograph of the two young women
showing them clad in the marching cos
tume adopted for use In the parade of
March 3. Nona of tho proposals has been
answered, the young women declaring
they are wedded to "the cause."
Alfalfa Shipper .
Objects to Rates
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7. CSpeclal Tele
gram.) Accompanied by Representative
Klnkold, F. at. Sands, a, largo nlfalfo
raiser of Gerlng. lodged an Informal com
plaint with the Interstate Commcrco com-.
mission today against the Union Pacific
and Burlington railroads and connecting
lines for alleged discrimination in rates
on alfalfa to points east of the Missouri
river. Later, Mr. Sands will file a for
mal complaint, as the commission b
lleves from the statement of Mr. Sands
today that a prima facie case has been
established which requires investigation.
"We are unable to secure as low a rate
per mile on our shipments of alfalfa is
given to Colorado points." said Mr. Sands
In his statement to the commission.
"Shippers of hay and alfalfa at Trini
dad, Oolo., for Instance, have in somo In
stances been quoted rates as much na CO
cents a ton lower than our rates, although
they were farther away from the point
of consignation. In this way we are shut
out from competing with Trinidad ship
pers. I also know of instances In which
Idaho shippers havo been given rates the
same an ours, although they are a much
greater distance from the market.
"Tho discrimination operates more
largely against Irrigated farms, as they
raise much more alfalfa than dry farming
communities and therefore do not have
so good a home market and are obliged
to sell their 'products' at distant poiriRt."
Mr. Sands said that the commission had
agreed 'to gits' consideration to a formal'
complaint which he will file later. "With
his formal complaint he expects to file
sufficient evidence of the alleged dis
crimination to warrant an order from the
commission correcting the rates com
plained of.
