NO REFERENDUM
FOR Mr.. NORRIS
Governor Finds No Law for
Special Election to Vote
On Senator.
MAY ADDRESS THE HOUSE


Lincoln, March l9.-(Special. y
Governor Neville will not call a spe-
Cial election to give Senator George
Norris chance TO discover whether
the people Of the state approve his
action recently in joining the filibus-
ter to prevent action on President
Wilson's request for the right to arm
American ships. Hc sent the follow
ing wire today to New York paper
i'll answer to the inquiry as to the
calling of a special session:
Senator Norris has ample facilities
for determining whether his action in
preventing a vote upon the presidents
armed neutrality bill meets with the
approval of his constituents or not. |
shall not burden the people of Ne
braska with special election at his
suggestion.
No Law For Election.
The governor believes that the sem
ator has ample opportunity to find out
through the press and the public
whether the hlibuster of the "wilful
twelve" was according to the best
interests of the country.
There is no law in this state en-
powering the governor to call an cleo
ton that an official may discover
whether his action is according to
the ideas OF the people or not, and
besides if there was such a law the
cost would be so heavy as to be prac-
tically prohibtive unless special ap-
preparation was made by the legisla-
ture for that purpose.
Resolution By Howard.
However, there may be a chance
for Senator Norris to get before the
legislature as Jerry Howard offered
a resolution this morning empowering
the chief clerk of the house to send a
letter of invitation to the senator to
address the house. The resolution
was as follows and was adopted:
Whereas, 1t seems that the general public
have no minds Of their own. thereby per-
hitting others TO do their thinking for
them--particularly the commercial clubs,
alias the captains Of industry and
Whereas, An independent patriotic Ameri-
can citizen Is beleYd and maligned by the
organs of the commercial interests for
performing his sworn duty as he see It,
Therefore l move that the chief clerk be
instructed to invite Hon. C. w. Norris
United States senator. to address the mem
bers Of this house on early day as
possible. JERRY HOWARD.

house bills left in the hands of stand

800 of them, became indefinitely post
poned under the Regain blanket reso-
luton last week. Just whether any of
them are really of much consequence
remains to be discovered when the
matter is little older.
The house unanimously concurred
in the action of the senate in adding
the emergency clause to the bill
passed appropriating $1,000 for the
State Railway commission to pay ex-
penses of the car shortage investiga-
ton. The emergency clause was de-
feated week ago by the same body.

COUNTY ATTORNEYS
GET SLIGHTLY MORE
Some in Smaller Counties Ben
Gifted Under Bill
Agreed To
COUNTY JUDGE TERM SAME
(From a Staff Corrospondcnt1


Lincoln, Ncb., March l9,-(Spe-
cial)-Thc house spent considerable
time today on a bill to raise the pay
OF county attorneys, sending it to
third reading, amended beyond rccog-
milton. Very few county attorneys
will be benefited. Those who will are
as follows:
In counties OF from 5000 to 10000,
pay raised from $500 TO 5000; coun-
ties OF from $1,000 to 10000, from
$3.50 to $1,000: counties OF 10000 to
$4,000, raised from 81, 100 to 81, 200.
The house declined to approve a
proposed constitutional amendment
lengthening the term of county
judges from two years to four years,
although it had previously passed
bill giving other county officers, by
statute only, quadrennal tenure.
Messrs. Radke, Peterson and Flans-
burg tried vainly to have it raised
over the adverse report of standing
committee.
ahoS ~ NbhNo6N'
Because the legislature of 1915 in
creased the mileage allowance of sher-
ifs from 5 cents to 10 cents, the house
voted to do the salfe for county SUI
perintendents when they travel
around visiting rural and village
schools. The bill was sent to third
reading.
A bill requiring the owners of
garages and repair shops to keep a
record of automobile numbers and
owners. which was said to have the
backing of the state sheriffs' associa-
ton and automobile clubs, received
the O. X. stamp of the whole COM
mittec. 1t carries a maximum pen
atty OF two years in the penitentiary
or $500 fine, or both. for violations.
The purpose is to aid in detecting
thefts of automobiles.
State-Owned Elevators.
Nobody had word to say, one way
or the other, on the McAllister bill
for constitutional amendment per-
hitting the state to establish and op-
crate terminal grain elevators, and it
was advanced to third reading.
Cities of 1000 to 5000 population
are authorized to create sewer dis
tricts and make the improvements at
the cost of property benefited, under
the terms of H. r. No. 358 which was
placed on the third reading calendar.

URGES PEOPLE TO BURN WOOD
 AND SAVE GOAL Fuel Administrator Makes Appeal to New England
 and to South. WILL MAKE AN
 ACTIVE CAMPAIGN For Every Cord of Hardwood Burned One Ton of Coal Is Released for War Purposes Says
 Garfield.

Washington, Nov. 29.-To help meet the shortage of 50,OO0,000 tons of the country's coal supply the fuel administration, in cooperation with the department of agriculture, has inougurated an intensive campaign for the substitution of wood for coal.
 "One cord of hardwood is equal to a ton of coal" said an announcement by the fuel administrator. "One ton is released for use in war work for every cord of wood substituted. Sta tistic show that there is vasta amount of dead wood in many sect ions of the country, and that the sup ply of wood in many communities is sufficient for domestic purposes in those parts"
 New England and the South, the statement said, have an abundance of wood, and in the latter section activities already are under way looking to an intensive campaign for the substitution of wood for coal.

sorrells Plays Kaiser, and Other Speakers Appeal
 for National Service.
PEOPLE HEED CRY OF
 STARVING CHILDREN
Appeal in Behalf of Destitute and Gut. ragged Armenians by Rev. E. K, Steel Wins Generous Response
 From Audience.

If Bill Hohenzollern. "the instru-
 ment of Satan," his son. the c. D., and chief demons, won Hindenberg, ct al., are affected like other com mon superstitious folk whose ears burn when others speak of them then the organ of hearing on the left side of their helmet carriers must have smarted considerably last night about 9 o'clock. It was about that time that Judge w. B. Sorrells was speaking at the union Thanksgiving service at the tabernacle. The judge said the kaiser, who professes partnership with "Gott," is the "most monstrous liar" that ever lived; that "the crown prince is not worth as much to the world as any one negro on John M. Gracie's plantation" and that Hindenberg and the other barbarians who set them- selves up as "supermen" and murder the aged, ravish women, and torture and slay women and children are imps of Satan who have no place on this sphere. Judge Sorrells declared that if opportunity presented he would con- sider it his Christian duty to drop "one bomb or ten thousand bombs on the kaiser's palace in Berlin, and let the Berliners take care of themselves. Because people who permit them- selves to be led into such crime cannot claim consideration at the hands of Christians. They are the instruments of the devil and should be destroy ed."
 Judge Sorrells said it is not the German people that i've must crush, but German principles. There are good German people ill the United States, but it is because they have come in contact with better civiliza- tion than exists in Germany" He condemned those who evade contribut- ing to the support of the nation and aid in relief work, and declared that i've must crush the military spirit of Germany, and we ought to be thank full that we are privileged to have part in destroying" this menace to Christianity and civilization. He said that while the kaiser and his barbar- ians attempt to belittle the American army, "the Germans know that the American army will conquer, because there is no better soldier, never has been a better soldier and never will be better soldier than the American
