Nebraska flORTOH TO CONTROL APPROPRIATIONS k House Finance Committee Chairman Has All Appropriation Bills Sent Automatically to Conference. MEMBERS HAVE LITTLE TO SAY (From a Staff Correspondent ) LINCOLN. April 10. (Special.) Gas rule, Cannonlam, Csar nudism and all those things whi.-h used to b hurlrd at tha republican parly In past yoara bv their democratic brothers have Iwn en tirely overshadowed "by a stunt pulled off by Boas Norton In the. house. Mr. Norton haa been given the power to control all legislation, aa far aa appropriations are concerned, by his democratic house, and the members will not be glve'it a chance to voice their sentiments on the appro priation bills passed by ' the house and which the senate has seen fit to raise Bo anxious is Mr. Norton to carry through his program of economy and so fearful was he that the members of the house will not back him In the test, that yesterday when one of the appropriation Ir.Ms raised by tho senate came back to the house for concurrence Mr. Norton sent up a motion that the bill be referred to a conference committee and that all future bills of like nature be referred to the same committee, he motion prevailed suid a committee will be appointed. This supply means that Mr. Norton has taken from the house members the' right to paa or discuss any of the appropria tion bills which have been raised by the house aud that they will go to a con ference committee .automatically aa they appear. . He takes It for granted that the house will not concur and does not even give it a change to concur in the senate amendments. It means that no discus sions can be had on the bill and that as soon aa reported from the -senate, the clerk of the house niust feed the bills iuto the hopper of Mr. Norton' auto matic fixer and they will be dropped into the hands of a, conference committee yet to be named.
