ROBERTSON TRIES
TO HURRY MATTERS
Senator From Holt Proposes
That Members Kill Some
of Own Pet Measures.
SHUDDER THROUGH HALL
(From a Start Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Feb. 27. (Special.) Tak
ing his cue from a story iu The Bee
Monday morning, Senator Rubertson
of Holt county, today attempted to
carry out the idea that it was time
lor the legislature to get down to
business and olfrred a motion that the
341 bills now on general tile he 'cut
down to thirty-three for immediate
consideration. This he said would
entirely eliminate the need of a sifting
committee later on.
The senators were- astonished to
think that any member would get so
radical as to want really to clean up
business and take the burden of a
wind jamming legislature otf of the
hands of the people so soon, Moriartv
of Douglas, who has the distinction ot
having introduced more than 10 per
cent of all the bills in the senate, of
fered an amendment to the motion
making consideration of the matter a
special order for next Wednesday
morning.
Senator Robertson wanted each
senator to pick one bill from the gen
eral file, the one he was (most inter
ested in which should be first con
sidered in committe'e of the whole. At
the same time each senator would be
expected to kill one bill, that one to
apply to a similar measure over iu the
house. The senator from Holt offered
to set a good example by killing off
two of the seven bills he had intro
duced.

By following this suggestion any
woman can, in the privacy of her own

fuzz from her face: With this pow

enough paste o cover the not wanted
hairs; apply and in 2 'or 3 minutes
rub off and wash the skin. This
method is unfailing, harmless and
quick in results, but care should be
employed to get the genuine delatone.
