[ I o. Dur,i spesA'ns against the Dill said
me people OF the state had not been per-
mtted TO appear before the legislative
committees TO discuss the measure. The
people OF the state mad every reason to be-
lieVe no such bill would be passed because
IL had been previously defeated IN both
branches OF the legislature and when II
came up for final action many OF the mem
bers had gone TO their homes. Some voted
| for 1t out of spite, and some without an
understanding OF the results should A. he
come law. This bill win not reduce the
| amount Of LIQUOR which will be consumed
| by the people OF Omaha because IL is only
a twenty-mlnute car ride TO Council Bluffs
and those who desire a social hour after
o'clock viii 60 TO that city and snepd
their money. The sIocunb law nro,5ds.
