Whnt Conference Means.
The bill now goes TO conference. which
will probably mean that the fight will be
carried back to the floor of the house
again. 1t may mean that, the emergency
clause giving the annexed territory an
opportunity to get in on the spring cleo
lions will be left off the next time. With
the emergency clause off the measure
does not need to muster two-thirds
vote,
Then again there will be an opportunity
to amend house roll 1S9, the Omaha
charter amendment bill, to put off the
time of the city election.
This would have to be until next fall,
at least, in order TO get the primaries
in. inasmuch as without the emergency
clause the law would not become effective
until next July.

On the motion of Bushee of Kimball
Howell of Douglas, who introduced the
bill, was allowed to name strongly pro-
annexationist conference committee, con-

governor usually names conference COM
mittees. His attitude toward the bill.
