Will Not Vote for Omahan
for President Regardless
Of Preference of
People.
Lincoln, Xeb., March 26. (Spe
cial Telegram) In a bitter arraign
ment of Senator G. M. Hitchcock,
V. J. Uryau today launched his
campaign tor dcK'gate-at-large to
the dciuorraUc national convention.
l!is opening speech was made at
Elmwood in the afternoon and at
Kincoln, where he spoke to the
women democrats, in the evening.
Referring to the presidential
candidacy cf Senator Hitchcock he
declared that under no Circum
stances would he vote for Mr.
Hitchcock even though the voters of
Nebraska so expressed their prefer
ence, if necessary he declared he
would siep aside and let his alter
nate -do the voting.
He said he regretted he was com
pelled to withhold his support from
any Nebraska democrat, who as
pired to the office, "but to support
Mr. Hitchcock, I would have to ig
nore the welfare of the democratic
party, as well as repudiate my own
Course." "
Explains Edwards Move,
i Mr. Bryan said Governor Ed
wards of ' New Jersey was at one
time an aspirant for the democratic
nomination for president, and his
name was entered on the Nebraska
primary ballot, but it was with
drawn because the New Jersey
executive "did not want to endanger
Senator Hitchcock's chances by di
viding the wet vote of the state."
i Mr. Bryan said the program of
the liquor element in the party was
to adept a noncommittal platform
and nominate a noncpmmitta'l can
didate at San Francisro.
iMr. Bryan declared that the Ne
braska senator was not a democrat
find had not supported the platform
ftra'ska senator was not a democrat
party.
i Tells ol Achievements.
i A large part of his speech was de
moted to telling of his own achieve
ments and'ef the part he played in
obtaining votes for women and
banishing the sale of intoxicating
liquor.
His address this evening was in
tended more especially for women
voters, but there were many men
present. Mr. Bryan said the demo
cratic party was in a position to
make a strong appeal for the sup
port of the women of the nation be
cause it is more free to take the
side of the organized masses
against organized greed than the re
publican party. Women, he said,
would naturally come to the aid of
democracy in its fight against com
pulsory military training, and be
cause of th; party's espousal of the
league of nations.
Will Fight Saloon.
His campaign In Nebraska, he
said, would be in the interest partly
of the faction of the party which
presented a list of delegates to the
democratic national convention of
which he was one. Mr. Bryan said
he was making his canvas in order
that he might stand in the San
Francisco convention "to fight the
reactionaries and friends of the sa
loon," and urged them to help make
the liquor issue "as dead as slavery
so that it will never be revived
again."
Opposition to taking the peace
treaty issue into the coming cam-,
paign was expressed by the speaker,
who also declared he was against
compusory universal .military train
ing. An effort was being made,
he asserted, "to force the military
training on the young men of our
country."
Saturday afternoon Mr. Bryan will
speak in Fremont, going to Sen
ator Hitchcock's home, Omaha, for
an evening meeting.

CODE IN EFFECT
UNTIL MANDATE
GIVEN BY COURT
Appeal by Governor May De
lay Action No Money to
Print Refen ridum.
Lincoln, March 2l5. (Special.)
The state auditor may continue to
pay warrants under the code bill
until the mandate of the supreme
court is handed down by that body.
This is the opinion of the high court,
which rules that the code bill is in
effect until the mandate is sent but
by the court.
In the meantime it is understood
that an appeal will probably be
made for a new hearing by the gov
ernor. This will extend the life of
the bill beyond the 40 days allowed
by statute for appeals. If it is
granted a still further time will be
given the code to remain in effect
until the court either reverses or
sustains its former opinion.
In the meantime financial ex
perts are endeavoring to discover
how the referendum code bill can
be put in effget, inasmuch as it will
cost a quarter of a million dollars
to print tire proposition in full and
get it Wefbre the people, when there
j, 0 money or appropriation to
niter the expense.

REGULATION OF
PACKERS URGED
BY OMAHA MAN
E. L. Burke of American Live
Stock Association Testifies Be
fore Congressional Committee.
By E. C. SNYDER.
Washington Correspondent Oman Bee.
Washington, March 26. (Special
Telegram.) E. L. Burke of Oma
ha, vice president of the American
Live Stock association, testifying to
day before the house committee on
agriculture in favor of regulatory
legislation of the packing industry,
said that his association for more
than five years has been constantly
endeavoring to obtain remedial leg
islation of the meat industry.
He laid down the general princi
ple that such legislation should en
deavor to obtain the fairest possible
prices to the consumer consistent
with fair returns to producers.rnan
of monopoly take naway from the
Offers Four Tests.
, 1.1 discussing the Anderson and
Gronna bills, he said it was his
judgment that the committee should
see that they measured up to a num
ber of tests of sound legislation
among which were the following:
First: Are there any agencies left
out of -the bills that should be in
cluded? In answering his own ques
tion, Mr. Burke stated that he be
lieved the legislation should include
the regulation of traders and specu
lators and produced figures to show
that approximately 50 per cent of all
the cattle produced in the country
went through the hands of the trad
ers. Should Remove Conflicts.
Second: Are the instrumentalities
of monopoly taken away from the
five big packers and facilities equal
ly furnished to all competitors?
Third: Do the agencies provided
in the bills interfere with any exist
ing governmental agencies. In this
connection Mr. Burke remarked
that he thought some of the duties
assigned to the live stock commis
sion conflicted with the existing
duties of the federal trade commis
sion, the bureart of markets and the
bureau of animal industry, and that
such conflicts should be removed
from the bills.
Would Encourage" Industry.
Fourth: Is the established busi
ness of the packers unnecessarily
interfered with in the proposed legis
lation? The witness thought it was
not, and that the legislation would
encourage and stimulate the live
stock industry rather than handicap
it.
In speaking of the consent decree
entered into between the attorney
general and the packers, Mr. Burke
offered the opinion that the decree,
like others of a similar kind, re
sembled the month of March, which
"came in like a lion and would prob
ably go out like a lamb." He said
the attorney general started out
with intentions and ended with in
tentions only.
Lincoln Grape Fruit War
Causes Big Drop in Price
Lincoln, Neb. March 26. (Spe
cial.) Because a local dealer, who
owns two stores, bought a carload
of grape fruit from Omaha jobbers
and put it on the market, the local
retail price dropped from $5.50 to
$3.50 a crate. The fruit dealer says
he realized an average of $4 a crate
and will not repeat the experiment
unless the jobbers put up the price.
Carpenters Want Boost

cialsUnion carpenters of Lincoln

ent scale is 872 cents an hour.
Northeast Nebraska
Teachers Will Meet
In Wayne Next Week
Wayne, Xeb., March 26. (Spe
cial Telegram.) Among the speak
ers at a meeting of the Northeast
N'ebraska Teachers' association,
here April 1, 2 and .1, will be J. H.
Beveridge of Omaha, Dr. Louise
found of Lincoln and Dr. David
Snedden of New York". Dr. Sncdden

and author of many books on school
problems. Miss Found is a member
of the faculty of the University of

schools. Most of the other speakers
will be teachers and superintendents
who are members of the association
and members of the Wayne state
normal faculty.
Before the teachers' meeting be
gins, district declamatory contests
will be held. A .nevy feature in the
program for the teachers' meeting
is the arrangement under only three
sections instead of tho nine for
merlv used. These sections will be
rural, elementary and secondary
education.
The Wayne Commercial club is
making arrangements for the enter
tainment of the instructors, as hotels
and restaurants will be insufficient

and 800 educators are expected.

cial Telegram.) Foreman Con Sohl
of Ashland and Charles Bullock of
Plattsmouth, one of the members
of his gang of live men employed in

Keeps the Straightest,
Unruliest Hair in Curl
You've never seen anything work such
wonders for straiftht, lank, uniuly hair as
plain liquid silmerine. Nothing else will
keep the hair in curl for so long a time
nor produce such beautifully lustrous, natural-looking
curls and waves. Damp or
windy weather has no terrors for the wom
an who uses it. And no one need hesitate
to use it, tojr it is so easily applied with a
brush and is so perfectly harmless. It
leaves no greasy, sticky or streaky trace.
The curliness can be acquired in three
hours, though many prefer to apply the
liquid at bedtime. When the hair is comb
ed out it is delightfully soft and fluffy.
Anyone who will get a bottle of liquid
silmerine from the druggist and follow the
accompanying directions will have a most
agreeable surprise. The liquid is also val
ued as a splendid dressing for the hair.
