LINCOLN, Sept. DECENTRALIZATION that
the time is drawing near when the opinion
10 the banking law Case 10 10 be handed
down, there lie q revival Of the talk of an
extra session Of the legislature. The late
democratic, state convention recommended
to the governor to call an extra session
merely to pass upon the proposed income
tax amendment TO the federal constitution.
This the governor has fatty refused to
even consider, but he IL willing and anxious
to call an extra session to enact a new
banking law should the final decision OF
the circuit court be adverse to the act Of
the late legislature.
The governor has announced positively
that II the court in its opinion holds the
law unconstitutional and then sets out I'm
what places It is invalid, he will call an
extra session and endeavor to get a con-
stitutional bill passed. The governor will
not wait for the case to be taken to the
United States supreme court, so he has
announced on several occasions, but just
as soon as It is known In what particular
the present law Is bad, he will call the
legislators back for a second trial.
The talk around the state house is that
1t Is very doubtful II the same legislature
would pass another banking law guaran-
teeing deposits Some of the ringleaders oil
the session who forced the bill through last
winter are now being quoted, with or with
out their permission, as being opposed to
the guaranty act.
So II the governor calls his extra session
It is likely he will have the fight of his
life TO get the measure he desires written
on the statutes.
work for Supreme Court.
The supreme court will meet September
n and at that time 1t is very probable the
court will pass on the motion of the state
oil inspector for a rehearing in the non
partisan judiciary case. Among the cases
of great Importance to the city OF Lincoln,
which now serves its people with all the
liquor they desire through the medium OF
clubs, though the town is dry, figuratively
speaking, is that in which the right of a
club to sell or serve booze In a dry town
is to be tried out, When the town first
went dry the clubs at once stocked up
heavily and then when there were rumors
that the police were going to interfere they
promptly got out injunctions to compel the
police to let them alone. So the supreme
court is to pass upon the legality Of that
injunction.
Two Houses Raided.
Under the direction and management of
Mrs. Roy Hale, who was looking for her
husband, the police last night raided the
home OF r. Il. Campbell on South Ninth
street, arrested the Campbells and Mr..
Hale and several other men and women
and loaded them into the patrol wagon.
Then Mrs. Hale directed them to a house
across the street and ordered the arrest
Of the woman who lived there. This was
promptly done and the entire bunch taken
