NORTON TO CONTROL

(From a starr Correspondent
LINCOLN. April TO- - Cspecial)-Gag
rule, Cannonisn, Car Reedism and all
those things which used to be hurled at
the republican party in past years BY
their democratic brothers have been en-
tireiy overshadowed by a stunt pulled off
by Boss Norton i'm the house. Mr.. Norton
has been given the power to control all
legislation. as far as appropriations are
concerned. by his democratic house. and
the members will not be given chance
TO voice their sentiments on the appro-
pr1aton bills passed by the house and
which the senate has seen flt to raise
So anxious is Mr.. Norton to carry
through his program of economy and so
fearful was he that the members of the
house will not back him I'm the test that
yesterday when one of the appropriation
bills raised by the senate came back to
the house for concurrence Mr.. Norton
sent up a motion that the bill be referred
20 q conference committee and that all
future bills of like nature be referred TO
the same committee. he motion prevailed
and a committee will be appointed.
This simply means that Mr.. Merton has
taken from the house members the right
to pas or discuss any of the appropria-
ton bills which have been raised by the
house aid that they VIII go to con-
ference committee automatically as they
appear.
He takes It for granted that the house
will not concur and does not even give
i a chance to concur in The senate
amendments. IT means that no discus
sions can be had on the bill and that as
soon as reported from the senate, the
clerk of the house must feed the bills
into the hopper of Mr.. Norton's auto
matte fiNer and they will be dropped into
the hands of conference committee
