LAWYERS SAY PASS is BRIBE
Phelps County Bar Association Adopts
Vigorous Resolutions.
REQUIRE ROADS TO REPORT MONTHLY
Demand is Made for Law Prohibiting
Issuance Of "FsvOrs" TO ATTORNEYS,
Surgeons or Witnesses Except
Bona Eide Employees.

HOLDREGE Neb Jan. 1a-Cspecial)-
At meeting of the Phelps County Bar
association Friday afternoon resolutions
were unanimously passed favoring the en-
actment OF law which is aimed to cut
out the carrying of passes by local at
torneys for the railroad companies, which
are considered in the nature of retainers.
The resolutions declare:
That no pass should be permitted to be
nsuen 70 any officer, agent. employe,
OF a railroad company. unless such person
y IN the exclusive employ of such railroad
made unlawful and punishable FOR the
holder to use such pass except In the honest
performance of the duties OF such employ
can an anti-pass law be made effective
eno Kept free from abuses, and that In any
instance the issue and use OF passes can
venience; that as to all persons casually
or partially employed by a railroad COM
rendering account therefor is as insignia
cant as their hotel and livery bills, that
only by denial of passes TO such persons
venting unjust discrimination. fraudulent
influence of public opinion and individual
oegradation be secured. and that TO provide
otherwise than as herein suggested lie to
deny to all unfavored persons within the
Glasses named the rights of equal opport
tunity and a fair deal.
That we are opposed to making Il legal
for any railroad company to issue a pass
70 any witness attending the trial of any
cause, and this whether or not such COM
pany is a party thereto. We insist that
there IL neither need nor reason therefor,
that the law already provides not only for
the payment of his mileage, but for the
taking OF his deposition outside the trial
county, and that while giving him a pass
u vicious and corrupting in principle, II
leads to his bias and unreliability, and
may be the means Of perjury and wrongful
Verdicts
That the anti-pass law should contain
provisions working the forfeiture of any
public office for acceptance of pass by the
incumbent, giving to the courts ali over
the state ample Jurisdiction, making the
use or all existing passes, not legal under
the law TO be passed, unlawful and punish
able. and requiring all railroads to report
monthly and under oath to the Railroad
commission all passes issued, and this
under proper pains and nanalfiea

FRIENDS SEARCH FOR NOLAN
Disappeared Two Years Ago, but
Relatives Are Dimdent.


FREMONT, Neb., Jan. l9.-(Special)-
Friends of William Nolan, the young man
who disappeared from here over two years
ago, are making efforts to locate him. He
owned an eighty tract of land in the
central part of the county, now worth $50
per acre. which was subject to a life
estate and owed about $500. A guardian
of his estate has been appointed and the
creditors are forcing a sale of his interest
in the land. Unless he Is located and re-
turns, 1t is feared his equity which amounts
to quite sum may be sacrificed. A pecu-
liar fact in connection with the case is
that his relatives appear to take little in
terest In what has become OF him and are
trying to get possession of the land. Nolan
is about 26 years of age, of medium height
and a butcher by trade. He belonged to
the Fraternal order of Eagles and 1t Is
through this order largely that efforts are
being made to find him.
