On July first, the Nebraska Guarantee
prevented by some action at law by the
banks opposed TO it.
While there was much discussion Of the
general proposition during last fairs pres
ldential campaign. the law which the legls-
lature and governor OF Nebraska succeeded
finally In enacting. has not been much con-
sidered by the public. The presumption
seems to exist that In this law the people
OF the state have obtained what was de-
scribed during the discussion and was
promised by the dominant political faction.
The arguments offered against the pro-
position centered principally in the state
ment that II would enable men to engage
in the banking business and obtain deposits
upon the credit Of a guarantee fund, who,
upon their own credit and capital would
never be able to do business.
II the public should be induced to ac-
cept with implicit confidence the idea that
such a fund would protect bank depositors
against loss, then II can be easily seen
that those holding this view would not
deem It necessary to consider the standing
OF the banks in which their deposits should
be made, for these deposits would be
equally secure in a bank OF small capital
as In one OF large capital. In banks owned
or conducted by dishonest. incompetent,
inexperienced or speculative men, as in
banks managed and controlled by men OF
experience and of assured ability. probity
and worth.
That this is not an exaggerated state
ment from an enemy of the guarantee law,
is shown by an extract from an editorial
in the Omaha World Herald Immediately
following the passage of the act which Il
as follows;
It is a bill which does just that which
the leaders of democracy promised last
fall hat Il would do. II furnishes L
every man who has a dollar deposited II
one of the state banks Of Nebraska alb
solute security and is a surety that h
will receive that dollar back, whether tn,
man TO whom he has entrusted II Is
thief or an honest man, an incompetent
or an able %financier, whether bank rob
bers break In and steal or Wall stree
pirates precipitate a panic.
II 1t should prove, as will be surel!
demonstrated, that this bill has nothing o
the character described and that tn
absolute security referred to in this edi
torial is really no security at all-then /
can DC seen tndt ny the operation OI tl
law, the people of this state will be mad
TO run the risk of a great and far reach
ing calamity.
1t is true that such a law as the World
Herald describes was promised by tn
leaders of the democracy, but this lay
utterly fails as a fulfilment Of tina
promise.
The law proposed by Mr.. Bryan an
generally talked by the supporters of tn
scheme, was for a definite and fixed cas-
fund, to be deposited in the state treasur!
and IL redeposited in the banks to /
secured by them in the manner that a
public deposits are now secured.
Payment to the depositors of a faile
bank was to Immediately follow the clo'
ing OF the bank.

e cially insisted upon as thereby panics wei

part and therefore DR. Bryan allowed
the passage of the teachers pension bill
and becomes a law on July 1. II is not in
cumbent upon teachers to take advantage
of the new law. but those who so desire
may pay into the pension fund 1.b per cent
of their salaries. Teachers on the "perma-
nent" list may retire after thirty-five
years service; must retire after forty
years service, and II twenty years Of this
time has been spent in the Omaha public
schools they shall receive an annuity Of
$500 through life. II there is not enough
money in the fund to pay the annuity, then
the school district shall make up the de-
ficiency.
Two other Pension Bills.
Two other pension bills become effective
on the same date. These apply to men,
bers Of the fire and police forces. The men
on the forces pay into the fund as now,
but in addition all fines Of members, pay
ment for special service. witness fees In
criminal cases, gifts, sale of lost or stolen
articles, forfeited cash bail, and balances
in the departmental funds at the close of
the fiscal years shall go into the pension
fund.
Three Of the new laws will effect dealers
In food stuffs. All commission merchants,
of whom there are about fifty in Omaha,
selling farm, dairy, orchard or garden
produce or wares on assignment must pay
a $40 license, The net weight of the con
tents must be stamped on all food pack
ages put up by a wholesaler or manufac-
turer. except meat product canned corn
canned and preserved fruit, though tn,
bill applies to any lard substitute. The
third law enlarges the powers OF the pur,
food commission and provides that al
bakeries, confectioneries, packing houses
diaries, creameries. restaurants. hotels
groceries and other places used for tn,
, preparation or sale Of food shall be wei
lighted and ventilated, and especial pre-
: caution shall be taken against the fly.
InsurRnce Measure.
Under a bill introduced by an Insurance.
agent senator a nonresident of the stat
cannot sell any Insurance OF any charac
ter in Nebraska. TIL new law also pro
hibits a Nebraska agent. from sharing hi
premiums with a partner or a genera
agent" living in another state.
Lazy husbands or fathers who refus
to support their families and jailed for this
cause may give bond and secure release
and a Judge may, at his own discretion
parole a person convicted of a felony
short OF murder, providing the prisons
was convicted on his first offense.
n Other new laws provide that the count
n commissioners shall, upon petition, mar
with metal markers the raves OF soldier
Of the civil war; the county commissions
shall draw the names for a grand jury al
nually unless ordered 10 the contrary b
l the judge; the mayor OF Omaha may al
n point a fire warden at 1850 a year, wit
le the approval Of the Board OF Fire ar
Police Commissioners; the county attorns
shall receive $4,000 a year instead OF S2,t
and the bailiffs OF the district court sha
receive Sl,2O a year instead OF 500, al

A. L. Mohler, vice president and general

Some years ago the Burlington headquar-
ters in Omaha were rebuilt and splendid
general offices provided for the employees
of the road in Omaha.
When this building was remodelled a pair
Of heavy oak doors were placed at the en-
trance TO the office building on the Far
nam street side. These are on the outside
and exposed TO the direct rays of the sun
and to all kinds of weather.
To keep these doors In first-class order
three men have worked a~ssiduously for
four years, Scarcely a week goes by but
these doors are treated to a fresh coat OF
varnish. About every two weeks the old
varnish is scraped off and new added.
For the last four years patrons Of the
road have met with these painters working
on the front door Of the headquarters
building, and 1t has been necessary to wall
underneath a ladder to enter the building
