PHONE INQUIRY
COMESTO AN END
Special Senate Investigating
Body Looks Into Com-
pany's Ways.
HEADQUARTERS IN LINCOLN
(From s Stuff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, March 26. (Special.)
The telephone investigation is over
and the committee, consisting of Wal
lace Wilson, George M. Adams and
diaries A. Chappell, senators, tried
and true, have made their report to
tli e senate.
They discovered that the Nebraska
Telephone company had headquarters
at the Lincoln hotel and had a tele
phone not connected with the hotel
switchboard over which members of
the legislature sometimes talked, and
that the telephone company charged
the calls to the parties using the
telephone and presented bills for pay
ment and some of these bills have
been paid.
They submitted the question to the
attorney general, whether it was un
lawful for a state official to accent
free telephone service from a tele
phone company, either directly or in
directly, and the attorney general has
ruled that it is not.
However, the committee finds that it
is "reprehensible and against public
policy," for a telephone company to
maintain headquarters in Lincoln dur
ing a session of the legislature and
allow a member of the legislature to
talk over the telephone therein lo
cated, even if he does pay for the call,
ami they want a law passed, which
will cover the situation and cover
it tight.

Gilead, it a modern "man without a
country."
Mr. Spomer applied for naturaliza
tion papers. All necessary details had

, Morris Declares
He Wants No Czar
i For President
(From a Start Correspondent.)
Lincoln, March 26. (Special Tele
gram.) Senator George W. Norris
spoke to a crowd of about 2,500 peo
ple at the city auditorium tonight. He
opened his address by stating that it
any person expected that he had come
to Nebraska to make any apology for
his action he was mistaken. He had
come to tell people things that had
not been in the newspapers.
The senator appeared to have an
especial grudge aginst the newspa
pers and said at different times that
they had not printed all the facts.
In one instance he read from the
bill empowering the president to arm
ships and informed his audience that
certSin parts had never been printed
in the papers.
Notwithstanding the assertion the
extracts read by him were carried in
the Associated Press dispatches and
printed in many Nebraska newspa
pers. He said he expected to stand by the
country in case of war, but said the
present attitude of the president and
congress was to establish a monarchy
with a king or a czar to rule.
Error of Legislature
Causes Veto of Bill
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln. March 26. (Special.) Gov
ernor Neville sent his first veto to the
legislature this morning when he failed
to approve of House Roll No. 15, a
bill by Representative Price providing
that surveyors employed to fix section
lines and corners should be paid by
the counties instead of by the town
ship or precinct.
There was no particuluar objection
to the bid except that a word had been
left out which rendered the law
meaningless. The word "supported,"
which would render the bill unconsti
tutional. Mr. Price ''concurred" in the opin
ion of the governor and is willing that
the bill should remain where it lies
in the legislative graveyard.
