sion to Report ON Coal and

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-By unanimous
vote the committee on interstate and for
eign commerce decided today to make a
favorable report on the Tillmln resolution
as amended. In its amended form the
resolution provides for the investigation
by the Interstate Commerce commission OF
railroad determinations and monopolies

The compromise measure is a combina-
ton OF the Tillman, Gillespie and Campbell
resolutions. 1t retains the number and
title of the Tillman resolution. but mar
rows it by striking out the proposed in
vestigation OF monopolies and discrmina-
tions in all products handled by railways.
The measure is broader than the Gillespie
resolution in that in it it includes all
coal while the Gillespie resolution related
to bituminous coal and 1t practically in
cludes the Campbell resolution by extend
ing the investigation to oil.

"But exceeding all these in Importance"
continued Mr.. Bushnell, "the state should
have n constitution that would give local
self-government to all the citizens. The
cities are state-governed instead of self
governed. Today much of the misgovern-
ment In cities is due to the fact that they
are denied local self-government. No gem

Commercial Clubs were the guests of the
Omaha Commercial club at dinner in the
clubs dining rooms at $3.50 o'clock last
night The entire banqueting space was
taken up by the gathering program OF
eight toasts following the dinner. The first
response was, Central and Western Ne
braska: It's Present and Future" by Hon.
F. NJ. Currie of Broken Bow. He spoke in
glowing terms of the advance OF these por-
tons of the state and made brilliant pre-
dctions for the future. He was followed
by Engineer John L. Field of Denver,
whose topic was Government Irrigation In
Nebraska" The results of the work done
in this line by the government were re-
counted by the speaker. details being
brought up to show the great benefit irri-
cation has been to large sections OF the
state.
III. NJ. Bushnell of Lincoln then took up
the subject, shall We Have a Constltu-
tional Convention" He began by COM
pairing the state as it was i'm 1870 with what
it is today with view of impressing upon
the minds of his hearers the greater needs
because of the greatly changed conditions.
THE long pants of 1875 haFe become knee
breeches In 1906" was his way of putting it,
large. railroad mileage Is nine times as
great. state agricultural production more
than ten times as great. manufacturing
twenty times as great and money In banks
twenty-five times greater than in 1878. -
Continuing he said 1T seems TO be prac-
tlcally impossible TO adopt constitutional
amendments I'm connection with the gen
eTal elections, overshadowed as they are by
the intense personality that enters into the
contest The question. therefore. of a con-
stitutional convention" was his conclu-
| sion, standing alone by itself for the
adoption of new constitution must appea
| as the only remedy for conditions as they
| exist. if they are to be remedied at all.
| He then dwelt on the efforts OF the state
/ supreme court to work under the provisions
! of the constitution. recounting how it has
been obliged 10 struggle to supply what IL
unprovided for. The salaries paid to tbs
state executive and judicial officers were
/ also pointed out as one of the Anticipated
! features of the present constitution. HI
said the salaries deemed adequate in 1871
are not adequate now to get the hes
/ talent Speaking Of the subterfuges OF thu
/ supreme court, made necessary to over
/ come the troubles, he said It's efforts "hav'
degraded the court and its influence in thu
eyes Of the people"
Turning to the agricultural and trans
portation questions and the needs which
they have raised he asked: Would tn

foreseen the marvellous agricultural growtl

Hough of St Louis, general counsel of
the National Wholesale Liquor Dealers as
ISOLATION, spoke before the house committee
in interstate and foreign commerce today
in opposition to the Hepburn pure food
bill.
He said the provisions relating to whisky
did not insure purity and were misleading.
straight whisky may be either pure or
impure, he said, iand a blended whisky
also may be either pure or impure. All
whisky is an artificial and not a natural
product, and he said it was not fair to
compel distillers to make public their
formula for fiavorng whisky as this is a
trade secret and has nothing to do with
the purity or inlpurity of the product 20
