BILL FOR REVISION
OF COHSTITDTIOH DP
lleamre FroTidLng; for Voting in
1916 on Calling Conrention to
Amend Organio Law.
SHOKT BALLOT IS THING SOUGHT
(Frof a SUff Correspondent)
UNCOLN. Jan. M.-Spectal.) The
coming week of the Nebraska legislature
will ee .hills Introduced and considered
of Importance to the state at lane,
probably the most Important being- the
consideration i nth house of a bill' to
call a constitutional convention.
This bill will provide that at the elec
tion m 1918 the matter of calling a con
stitutional convention will be submitted.
The. purpose of the convention I not fo
snake an entire revision of the constitu
tion, but to submit to the voters certain
sections, which will be revised and af
terwards submitted to the voters.
Wk Art Baeklac Bill,
The bill Is the work of Norton of Folk
and Btebbina ef Dawson,, democrat and
republican, respectively, and proposes,
among other things, to make a majority
of alt votes cast for and against a con
stitutional amendment carry tbe propo
sition Instead , of a majority of votes
east at the election. The promoters I
Here that the man who goes to the polls
and votes neither way on a proposition
should not be counted against it any
more than the man who doe not go to
the polls at all. -
The short- ballot Idea la on of the
(hlnga which will be reached, If the bill
. becomes a law, the objective point be
ing .to cut out the election of most of
- the state officer. .The recall la made
a part of the measure.
Lam Title Measaro.
' The Torrens system of land titles will
' 1e a bill Introduced In the house this
. week probably by : several members
jointly. This, or a similar bill, has a!
ready be nintroduced. In the senate by
Ehumway ot Dixon, so It appears that
the economy program of the house,' which
. was Intended to do away with the dupll
cation of bills I none branch Introduced
In the other, will not be put In effect.
The, bill Is a very long one, covering
"many pages, and the cost of duplication
'. will be considerable. ,
Another matter Which will b decided
will be the Kelley-Fultt contest from Ne
maha county. Much will depend upon
' the result of the recount of the vote by
the committee, which will start Monday
night Fults, republican, ha a major-
- ity over Kelley, democrat, of five vote
to start with.
Bone af Contention, ""1
The bone of contention was the bull
- moose votes cast for Fults, which the
committee, at Its meeting last week, de
cided by a vote of 4 to J he had a right
to. Therefore, thre decision of the elec
tions committee to recount the votes Is
In Kellcy's favor, for, as be 1 sthe 'de
feated candidate, he ha nothing to lose
and something to gain by the counting.
' An error In the count of only three votes
would put, Fults out of It and Kelley
Jri. , But there Is 'an even chance, how
ever, that an error the other way night
give Fults a stronger bold. .
Over in the senate It Is expected that
the. appointment of a successor to Judge
"Holcomb as a member of the board of
control, will come up. It Is expected
that the governor will send in the name
- of Judge Holcomb and It will be up to
the "senate to. reject or confirm, as they
may see fit, the law requiring that ap
pointments to the board of control shall
be made by the governor and confirmed
by the senate.
Matter' of Conflraaattoa.
At the last session Governor Morehead
pent In the names of three men for con
firmation, nd in executive session hy
were all turned down. Later be sent In
the names of the present members and
. they were' confirmed. 'There is a rumor
that a similar condition may exlat when
the . name of Holcomb is proposed. but
. no one at this time cares to take the
lead in any movement against the con
firmation of the judge to succeed him
self . .
.Another matteer which. will have to be
adjusted is the one of appropriations to
pay the members and employes. So far
the senatel has failed to conform to the
Idea o fthe house and; when the changed
appropriation bill goe back to the house
It may meet with .some opposition.

Simple Way To
End Dandruff
fhere Is on sure way. that ha never
' failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that la to dissolve It, then you destroy It
entirely.' To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, common liquid arvoa
from any drug store (this Is all you will
need), apply It at night when retiring,
use enough to molstea the scalp and rub
It in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not aJI, of your
dandruff will bo gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve, and entirely destroy, every single
sign and trace ef it no matter bow much
dandruff you may have. ,
Yon will find all lulling and, digging
of the aralj will stop Instantly and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy,' silky
and toft, and look and feel a hundred

SPEAKER ISJIAKIKG GOOD
Jackson Eren Surprises Friends as
Presiding- Officer of the
Lower Body.
REPUBLICANS ACT NICELY
(From a Btaff Correspondent)
LINCOLAY Jan. t4. -(Special.)-Speaker
Jackson of the lower branch of the Ne
braska legislature ha even surprised his
friends as presiding officer of that body.
He la showing sll the signs of a presiding
officer who baa the punch to deliver the
goods.
He has a rood voice, a strong knowl
edge of parliamentary rules and an ability
to hold the member to their places, and
what counts wtrongly in the success of a
presiding offioer. has the esteem and con
fidence of the membership of the body
over which he presides. Irrespective of
party membership.
Deliveries; the Goods.
In a body which Is strongly com
posed of new member the task of a pre
siding officer Is no easy affair, but Mr.
Jackson is delivering th good and mak
ing good. Of course he baa the assistance
of some ef the floor members. Fries of
Howard I one who generally know what
ho I talking about when he get up to
peak. This I the Howard county mem
ber' sixth consecutive session and prob
ably no man knows the 'ropes -of legisla
tion better, than Fries. He, knows when
to talk.
Vanduesen of 'Washington Is another
member ot the majority who doe things.
Vanduesen Is not an orator, but he Is a
worker and when be goes) after a proposi
tion he puts hi whole soul Into It.
Parkinson of Pawnee, Parrlott of Ne
maha, Richmond of Douglas and Broome
of Box Butte are others among th ma
jority In the, house who are a big help In
carrying out legislation ot the kind that
counts.
Attltade ( Minority.
Another thing which count much to
ward the success of a speaker Is the atti
tude of th opposition minority. . So far
In the session none of the minority ap
pear to have any inclination to put the
majority In the hole. Perhap it 1 be
cause indications lead to the belief "that
they will get In th hole anyway, but be
that as It may, with a.bunch of able, and
experienced legislators like Nichols or
Madison, Mockett of Lancaster, Druesdow
of Douglas, Jesry of Lancaster, Hostettler
of Buffalo, Reynolds of Red "Willow,
Stebbtna) of Dawson and Beams of Soott's
Bluff, who could raise trouble it they
wished, they seera to be imbued with the
Idea that effective legislation ought to
come at this time and they expect to help
It along all they can Instead of throwing
obstacles in the way of the democratic
machine. .
One of the "sign ot the tiroes" so far
In th leglalatWa game I that If legisla
tion of benefit to the state is to be en
acted In the present session the republican
minority will be entitled to as much credit
and possibly more than the majority, un
less some of the leader In the house get
some of the thing out of their system
which they seem to have now.

Will Submit "Two-Mile; Initiative
Amendment to Slocumb Law in
1916 Election.
PROHIBITION UP FOR VOTE
(From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN. Jan. 34. 'Special.) The pro
hibition forces of Nebraska are planning
to submit to the people at the 11 election
a Initiative measure In the form of an
amendment to the Slocumb law to pro
hlblt the licensing of ny saloon within
wo miles of any building of the Univer
sity of Nebraska or any of Its affiliated
schools or any state Institution under the
supervision of the Board of Control, ac
cording to A. O. Wolfenbarger, one of the
leading prohibition workers of the state.
A, state-wide vote on prohibition will also
b taken, be says. He Issued thl state
ment yesterday:
"There Is a welt defined movement un
der way which will have the backing ef
tbe temperano people ot this state with
out regard to party, sect or creed. It wllW
not depend upon legislation, but will come
from the people and go direct to the peo
ple a an Initiative measure In th form
of an amendment to the present Slocumb
law. and it will strictly prohibit the li
censing ot any saloon within two miles
of the University of Nebraska or any of
It related or affiliated building, any
stat normal school or any state Institu
tion under the supervision of th State
Board of Control. - "
Dry for Million Years.
"It will put Lincoln on the 'dry' list for
1.000.000 years to come, and will put a
large white 'dry' spot on the' map of
Omaha, and will terminate all authority
to grant licenses In Nebraska City, Bea
trice, Hastings, Grand Island, Norfolk,
Kearney and other place which need not
be mentioned.
"At the same election,- In Wtt, a vote
will be taken on state-wide prohibition,
and these two votes will give Nebraska
a campaign with whisker on it longer
than ex-tonator Peffer of "Bleeding
Kansas' ever wore In his palmiest And
most whlskerful days. Incidentally It will
paralyse jtho foot ball sprees In tho state
university city, which have heretofore
broken more heart of mother and sis
ters than tho brutality ot th gam ha
ever fractured of. skulls, rib and other
bone of the players.
No Risk Taken.
"It will not be forgotten that we had
several thousand signatures on this two
mile proposition last year, but the event
was postponed and the names laid away
In great rick In order that the suffrage
campaign might pass by. It ha been
suggested that the old signatures, which
ran up into the thousands over . night
might still be Used, out this will not bo
done; no risks will be taken, but new
petitions will be put forth, and it 1
confidently ' believed that the necessary
number of signatures can be obtained
In six week without the expenditure of
more than 1600 for printing and circula
tion and without tho payment of a dollar
for worker. Alert politician and' short
hand writer of history might as well
get. ready tor thl two-mlt race." 7
