Farmfrs will predominate In the next ses
sion of the log stature to a large dexree,
according to the statements furnished
the secretary of state so far for the roster
of legislative members. Although but
ninety of the ICO members of the house
have reported, thirty-six of them are
farmers, while of the thirty-three mem
bers of the senate, eleven are farmers.
This makes 17 members so far In the agri
cultural class. When the other ten In
the house have reported it Is probable
there will be over fifty farmers In both
branches.
The last legislature also was to same
extent a "farmers' " leBlslature, thirty
six belr? tag-iced that way In the house
while five were found In the senate, a
total of forty-one, so that It Is without
doubt safe to say that thla session will
be more agricultural than any for some
time.
Roster of Lawyers.
In the 1913 session there m ere eleven law
yers In the house and seven In the sen
ate, while In the present session there
will be twelve In the house at least and

senate. This session will have three !n
the house and one In the senate.
There were very few newspapermen
In the last session. tennls Cronln of
O'Neill belnjc the only one In the house,
and "W. H. Smith being the only one In
the senate. This session Cronln comes
back to the house again, but he will
have with him three other newspaper
men, but over In the senate there will be
no literary artists, the nearest to it be
ing a printer from Omaha.
In the last senate there were two states
men who had beebme so wealthy that
tlicy could afford to retire from active,
llfo. These were Kriynbuugh of Polk
and Hoagland of Lancaster. Senator
Haagland will be the only retired pluto
crat in the upper body this session. In
the house last year they' had retired
statesmen to burn, ten of tat class will
ing to admit that thy could live without
any vlalblo means of support. This year
Just four tag themselves as retired, two
merchants and two farmers.
How They Line tp.
The list so far for the coming session
Is as follows: Senate, farmers, eleven;
merchants,, five; real estate and Insur

ENGLAND WILL PROPOSE '
CUTTING OFF BOARDS
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Nov. 28.- -(Special.) In . the
interest of moral reform. Judge W. H.
England, philanthropist and reformer,
announces that he proposes to go be
fore the next legislature and demand that
two things be done for the betterment
of mankind.
One of these Is the abolishment of the
Stats Board of Secretaries, connected
with the Board of Health, and the other
Is the throwing out of office of the mem
bers of the State Board of Pardons.
Judge- Kngland does not believe that
any board has any right to deny any
physician, who desires to come Into Ne
braska and practice, Ihe right to do so.
He believes that It Is all In the Interest
of a medical trust and the judge be
lieves that trusts sre "agin the govern
ment." As far as the pardon board Is
concerned, the Judge Is opposed to the
principle of bringing matters of pardon
and parol before a board for a hear
ing. He believes that the warden should
bo the all-powerful Judge and from bis
decree thero ought to be no appeal.
