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.
