J. Weaver of Falls city, president of the constitutional convention, won the applouse of the 4.1 audience that filled the Chamber of j Commere dining hall yesterday ' noon, 44 Proposals that particularly won I the approval .'of the crowd were those for retaining title to all min V cral deposits on state lands and for 4 bidding the cession of water power - sites to private companies, and the amendment authorizing the legis V" lature to establish an industrial com-4- ' mission to adjust labor disputes and ' investigate profiteering. Will Retain Minerals. 4- Under the amendments, public r; 'school lands can be sold at auction only, said Mr. Weaver. "The state . now has 1,600,000 acres of these. All r ; that can be sold is the part used - for agriculture. If it is found that deposits of oil or other minerals lie K- underneath, that will belong to the i whole people. The natural resources 1 ' 2 of Nebraska should never be sold, h 4, Engineers says that streams here : are capable of producing 600,000 v horsepower. The people should preserve this resource, which might j furnish light and power cheap '.: enough to build up extensive indus ' trial districts. If oil should be found 'r on public lands, this would reduce tfe our taxes by so much." $2? Mr. Weaxer made it plain that the amendment giving the legislature 'he power set up an industrial com-missioit"-does not make this nftda :L tory, and that any such board, once ;.?f ordered by the legislature, could be Mj, disestablished through the referen- i 1 1 m ri tit :c U i J ... ...v Tuicti ji, nicy luuuu ll . .unsatisfactory. Must Protect Public. "The interest, of the public is more than that of any group," he said. "Society and government must be -T able to protect itself. No class, 4' whether of capital or labor, has the 5r right to menace the, public interest. 3 Everyone is injured irt these dis 4j putes the men lose wages, the em rir Ployers, profits, and the public its s- jfi-vpeace and comfort. As an Ajnerican, . who believes in odr established in v stitutionsJL believe we must provide j;. a meanf settling our differences 01 without conflict that menaces the 'p safety of the government. 'fej "I believe that a full and fair in-" 5 vestigation and publicity of the find ings of an industrial commission would afford a sufficient and fair Ss means of avoiding many disastrous strikes and lockouts. Furthermore, tj it is the proper function and duty of the state, through legislative enact ment, to restrain or stiDDress. if nee- 3 essary, any business, which, through . unconscionable gains or unfair prac- ' --j'tices, menaces the public welfare." .'; New, Revenue Plan. S Other points emphasized by Mr. :f;l; Weaver dealt, with the provision for rip a civil verdict by five-sixths of the ;p jury in order to expedite litigation: j that the legislature be permitted to hold shorter sessions than 60 days ; - if it-could finish its work sooner, '.rf , and the new revenue provisions. 5f : "Amendment No. 26is designed to M provide a more modern and equi- . table provision for raising the reve nue of th state," he declared The & convention reached the decision, to ;p tax tangible property arid franchise ;r: uniformly and proportionately as at V present, because this property could be readily listed and valued.

There is more than . bA $500,000,000 of such property in No braska, and yet not more than one- ;'rjl enth is returned for taxation This " r.3 therefore, places upon lands and jfc other tangible property a greater it; burden than it should bear. And so ..'ry the convention gave the legislature ; 4; wide latitude as to means of bring-. - ing on the tax rolls of the state 'fi-k the property which now escapes and which should bear its just share 44 of the burdens of government. i ' Equalizes Taxes. : 'fit is conceded that moneys and 4 credits now returned are unjustly 'f taxed. For example, when $1,000 in ' money is returned, it is assessed at $1,000, and land is not assessed at more than half its value. If the legislature finds that land is assess Itti ed at only 50 or 60 per cent, it can 4 assess moneys and credits on the same basis if this amendment is adopted." A number of women were present at the meeting and Mr. Weaver's 4 ..; tribute V the need for the votes of the women to protect the established system of industry was appreciated fy by them. Mr. Weaver, although K formerly a lawyer, has been for fif ;t teen years a stock raiser and or- chardist at Falls City.

Since his im prisonment, Mrs. MacSwiney has been a constant and daily visitor to his bedside. Minnesota Fair Is . Host lo Sen. Harding (Continued rem l'agt One.) The crux of the whole agricul tural problem, declared the nominee, is the question whether the nation is to follow a short-sighted policy of exploitation or adopt a program to, insure' continued prosperity under a self-sttstaininc; system. Must Determine Policy. "The time has come." said he. "when as a nation we must deter mine on a definite-agricultural pol icy. We must decide whether we shall undertake to make the United States a self-sustaining nation or whether we shall continue to exploit our agricultural resources- for the benefit of our industrial and com mercial life and leave to posterity the task of finding food enough by strong-arm methods if necessary to support the coming hundreds of millions. " ' ;! "I believe in the self-sustaining, independent, self-reliant nation, agri culturally, industrially and politi cally. ; ,: , "Under a sound system of agricul ture, fostered and safeguarded by wise' and fair administration of state And federal government, the farm ers of the United States can feed our people for many centuries perhaps indefinitely. But. .we must understand conditions, and make a new appraisal of relationships, and Square our actions to the great, un derlying foundation of all human endeavor. ; "Farming is not an auxiliary, it is the main plant, and -geared with it, inseparably, is every wheel of trans portation and industry. America could not go on with a dissatisfied farming people, ad no nation is secure' where land hunger abides. We- need fewer land hogs, who menace our future, and more fat hogs lor ham and bacon. We need a Need Better Harvests. , "We need less appeal to class con sciousness, and-more resolute intel ligence in promptly solving our problems. We need rest and recup eration for a soil which , has been worked out in agitation, and more and better harvests in the 1 inviting fields of mutual understanding. Wc need less of grief about the ills which we may charge- to the neglect of our own citizenship, and more confidence in just government, along with determination to . make and hold it just. "We need to contemplate the mir acle of Amerioa in that understand ing which enables us to. appreciate that, which made us wtiat we are. l - . f t . . ,a"d then resolve to cling fast to all that is good and go confidently on to great things.

I think that the paths which brought us to the point where the world leadership might have been ours as it might have ,been in 1919 in the life, ought to be the way to the answered aspirations' of this great republic. "Fake to turn for reflection some toes, because I get therein the needed assurance for the onward march of the morrow, y Today we have contemplated American farm ing in the broadest possible way, have been reminded where we have been .remiss; tomorrow we want to greet the farmers of America in the freedom and fullness of farming productivity, impelled by the assur ance that they are to have their full part in the rewards of righteous American activity.

We are tired of the war and want peace. We feel that it is an outrage, and. this is not too strong a word to use in describing it, that the democratic party is at tempting to blackmail the nation into an acceptance of an internation al government of our foreign affairs by the threat to keep us in a state of war until President Wilson's cove nant and constitution of world gov ernment is adopted. "We want to get back to normal conditions of business, of industry, 6f foreign commerce. Th'islVis im possible as long, as pur international relations arc suspended in the nebu lous schemes of President Wilson, flow adopted by GovernoCp$ leav ing us without any definite lasis for the conduct of our affairs.,.? Repudiate Cox. - "We made a separate 'declaration of war against Germany, and we re pudiate the assertion of Governor Cox that we cannot make a separate declaration of peace. We conducted the waras an associate of the allied Europen nations. We know, as normal Americans, that we can con duct all of our international business, as an associate of those natiorfs without forming either a permanent alliance with them or going to the extreme of setting up a constitution of government for the whole world, of which Governor Cox would prob ably appoint President Wilson as the representative of this country. "Our people do not propose to keep an army perpetually in Europe or to be a party to every European war, -regardless of .whether we are nationally interested in it ''Or not. We do not propose to be made the guardians of the world and to con tribute our' resources and the chief energies of our nation in handling other people's affairs. We know, furthermore, that the effort of Gov ernor Cox and President Wilson to have the United States subject itself to a-.world government under the constitution brought back by Presi dent Wilson is a part of the plan, the details of which were presented in flhe senate during the recent de bate, to pool the war debts of Eu rope, including those of Germany, in which the United States would be the chief solvent debtor. Contribution Already Sufficient. "We feel that the $36,000,000,000, which we spent in the war was really j a sutttctent contribution, xnere is a great deal of resentment at the boldly avowed purpose of the demo cratic administration, backed up by Governor Cox, using the . exact words and language of the presi dent: 'To make supreme sacrifice of the United States and join our fortunes with the fortunes of men everywhere.' We have earned, or rather our ancestors have, in many bitter struggles, the present good fortune which we as a nation enjoy, nd we regard as an affront and as unspeakable danger, the proposal of the democratic party to surrender these separate and special fortunes and to use the words of the presi dent, 'Join them with the fortunes of men everywhere.'" n - Conscience-Stricken , Thief Returns Swing Lincoln, Sept. 8.

Drive First Real Evidence to Sub stantiate Cox's Charges Giv en Seriate Committee by Committee Member. Chicago, Sept. 8. First, evidence fcupnorting Governor Cox's charge that' large quotas were assigned to the principal cities by the republican campaign hind committee was in troduced, in the senate committee In vestigation today when Dudley S, Blossom, who helped raise Cleve land's quota, testified Governor Cdx's figures of $400,000 for that city were correct. Senator Reed callod the witness ttention to the quota sheet sub mitted last week by Fred W.- Up ham, republican national treasurer, which fixed the amount for the en tire state of Ohio at $400,000. Mi. Blossom testified that A. A, Protzman, a paid agent of the na tional committee, was present when the Cleveland quota was announced as $400,000 and that Mr. Protzman helped direct the laising of the n-.oney. Teams Raised Money. A list of 3,000 names of prospects was provided by W. R. Woodford, chairman of the wiys and meai-s committee of Cuyahoga county, and from this list each team captain se lected the names of SO to 75 men to be canvassed by his team. Some of the cards in the list as furnished by Mr. Woodford were marked with the amount the prospect should give, Mr. Blossom said. "You were to get $400,000 in Cuy ahoga county alone, although this quota: sheet introduced ,last week by the republican national committee shows the goal for the entire state of Ohio was orily $400,000?" Senator Reed asked. "Yes, sir, that was my understand- Cleveland Had $74,000. Mr. Blossom said that when he left Cleveland Labor day $74,000 had been pledged and that the work was still going on with Mr. Protzman directing it, and all workers trying to i each the goal of $400,000. Senator Reed then took the wit ness through form 101, the campaign plan, which republican witnesses have said was never issued and which Mr. Blossom said he had never seen. At almost every step in organization described by the plan, Mr. Blossom nodded or ex pressed assent. He said an execu tive committee was , formed as de Scribed in the plan and remembered, of its dozen or so members, .Michael Gallagher, c.oal operator, as chair man, and John Sherwin and J. R. Nutt, bankers, and C. A. Otis, trker,..as members. The "prospect list of 3,000 names," which form 101 recommended, was identified as existing ' in Cleveland, as was the "cream list" assigned to the executive committee.' Mr. Blos som said he had been told by Mr. Protzman that the executive com mittee had obtained, ;about $28,000 in pledges from' this lists Senator Reed brought out that this conver sation With Mr. Protzman took place after the committee's subpeona was served on Mr. Blossom. v , , i, First Ship Is Due to Arrive in Morning - (Continued from Psg-e One.) anticipation of the use of thistype of machine. , ," .
