BILL FAVORED
BY CONVENTION
Spirited Debate by Douglas
County Members Features
TWo-Day Discussion
Of Proposal.

Lincoln, March 10.--(Speciai. y
Douglas county, if the work of the
constitutional convention is ratified
by the people, will be divided into
legislative districts and each district
will elect it own representative in
stead of electing at large as has
been the case in the past. J
Proposal No. 3l4, which has been
under discussion for two days, was
reported out in committee of the
whole by vote of 81 to 81. The
proposal not only applies to Doug
las county, but to all other dis
tricts in the state where more than
one representative has been elected.
The counties affected will be Doug
las Lancaster, Dodge, Saunders,
Gage, Hall, Custer and Buffalo.
The fight was principally be-
tween members of the Douglas coun-
ty delegation, Abbott, Magney, and
Votava leading for the proposal and
Bigelow, Howard, Sears, Saunders.
TePoel, Mclaughlin, Wilson and
Norman opposing.
Occasionally some one outside
of Douglas county would inject a
word or two, but most of the or
atory was confined to the Omaha
members. Abbott and Votava saiG
that the people of Douglas county
were tired of voting for "slates"
put up by the interests and the
politicians and that the people could
not vote intelligently on these states
because they did not know the candi-
dates. Under the proposal it would
give the farming districts of Doug
las Ia county a chance to have mem
and he hurriedly prepared an amend
ment which would set the farming
part of Douglas off into district
by itself, but this amendment was
defeated,

BALLOT
IS DEFEATED BY
CHARTER DIET
"Untair Tactics" Charged by
Opponents Of Plan for
Governor Appointing
Cabinet.

Lincoln, March l0.-(Special.)-
Notwithstanding that the short bal
lot advocates both in and out of the
constitutional convention have been
working persistently for several days
| to bring back the executive bill,
proposal 327, for the purpose OF
eliminating the secretary of state,
attorney general and possibly some
others, the attempt was defeated, the
convention refusing to take such
action by a vote OF AZ to 50.
The matter came up when the ex-
ecutive committee reported out the
executive bill with the budget
amendment. Keefe of Thurston
| moved an amendment to the original
bill which had been adopted couple
of weeks ago, to strike out the Sec
retary of state from among the cleo
tive officers.
Charge Unfair Tactics.
Byrum raised the point of order
that the convention had taken action
on the matter and reconsideration
would be necessary before the
matter could come up for considera-
alton, but Davies of Boyd. in the
chair, ruled his point out of order.
Byrum charged Keefe with being
unfair in trying to work the short
ballot scheme by piecemeal. IF you
want to put through a short ballot
proposition why don't you cut out
all of the state officers to be elected
by the people and only elect the gov
ernor and have him appoint the rest
Of them?" asked Byrum. "Do that
and then we can put the proposition
fairly before the people and find out
whether they want their state Of
hcers elected or appointed. Don't
try~to put something over a little
at a time. Go all the way"
Hold Other Amendments.
The vote against the first attempt
to cut down the elective officers was
so decisive that other amendments
ready for introduction in case the
first went through were not offered.
The convention passed an amend
ment which will allow the land COM
missioner elected at the coming cleo
ton to fiji the term Of two years and )
draw the increased salary of $4,000,
the same as the other state officers.
The schedule committee recon-
nended that if the people ratify the
amendments they will 60 into effect
January I, 1921, unless an amend
ment specifically provides otherwise.
The laws. in force at that time not
inconsistent with the constitution
will continue in force unless re-
pealed in the usual manner. If any
Of the amendments passed and sub
mitted by the convention and adopt
ed by the electors are inconsistent
with the new provisions the latter
will prevail.
