New Parole Board
Goes Into Office
ITO Cases Await Decision of
Recently Created
State Body.

Lincoln, Jan. 8.-(Specia1.) 1.-THE
new board of pardons and paroles,
created by constitutional amend
ment, went into office the past week
with bequest of ITO cases at the
Nebraska penitentiary--cases under
the indeterminate sentence of law,
which had accrued while the parole
power rested in the hands OF Sec
retary H. H. Antics of the state de-
partment of public welfare.
The secretary, on orders OF the
board, has with a sigh of relief,
turned over all the records to Sec
retary of State D. M. Amsberry,
who with Governor McKelvie and
Attorney General Clarence A. Davis
constitute the new board.
These no cases among the $50
inmates involve men who have
served their minimum time under
the law and are subject to parole
release at the discretion of the pa
rolling authorities.
This power the last few months
has been exercised with great cir
cumspection, the only feature hav-
ing been, the release of some So
convicts, who as TRUSTEES had been
working on state roads during the
summer. ~-
In spite of the paroling Of lsl men
since Secretary Antics administra-
ton little over a year ago. the
prison population has grown from
327 fo $50.

McKelvie and
Legislature on
Friendly Terms
Fight Expected on Some of
Governors Proposals, But
Strength of Opposition
Is Unknown.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. S.-(Specialo
Despite reports of open hostili-
ties, political blooddrawing and near
murder, Gov. S. r. McKelvie and
the Nebraska legislature are on fair
" friendly terms.
True, any number of legislators
have minds of their own" which
contain ideas on legislation differ
ing from the II, 900 words OH that
subject handed to them Thursday
by Governor McKelvie in his mes
sage.
Very, very few Of them, however,
are out fighting the governor. A few
OF his ideas don't satisfy their fancy
and probably will come in for
criticism and, possibly, the ideas of
certain legislators on certain legls-
lation will at the end of the session
be on the statute books in prefer
ence to the governors ideas.
Don't Want Boss.
Take it as a whole, based on dis
cussions with numerous members,
Governor McKe1vie, while not an
idol or Nebraska Moses in their
ewes, has a diffident but friendly
legislature to deal with at the OPEN
ing. o.,
- IF he don't try to boss us we'll
be all right" one member said to-
day.
And that, in nutshell, appears
70 be present day temper OF the legis
1ators. They want to join hands with
McKelvie and put over series OF
constructive Legislative acts that will
put the largest republican legislative
majority in history down as the
greatest legislature in history.
Byrum Of Franklin is looked upon
as the leader in a fight to abolish
certain officers. Byrum, when he
ran for speaker of the lower house.
didn't show much strength.
Byrum is Leader.
At the time of his candidacy many
members declared they wouldn't
back Byrum for speaker because of
his known strength as floor leader.
which would be lost if he obtained
the speakership. So, if many who
favored Byrum actually voted for
someone else for speaker in order
to have leader in the fight for
abolishment OF certain high salaried
officers, there may be more anti-ad-
1ninistrative code strength in the leg
islature than the speakership fight
indicated. ~
With the fight for committee selec-
tions just ending and with legislators
at home for the weekend listening to
sentiment of "the boys" on Nickel
vie's proposals, the popularity of the
McKelvie program at this time could
be nothing except conjecture.

People to Pay Cost,of
+ Grand Inaugural Ball
Continued from Page one)

in special dancing pavilion erected
at the city hall, the national inaugu-
raj ball being held at Jackson hall,
and third ball arranged in honor
of the visiting military companies,
being held at Carusi's. y
Jefferson refused to permit an in
augural ball at his Inauguration.
Revival for Madison.
The inaugural ball was revived at
the Inauguration of President Madi-
son and his wife, the famous Dolly
Madison, made social history at the
nations capital. There was also an
inaugural ball at both inauguratiohs
of President Monroe.
The Inauguration of President
John Quincy Adams was marked by
brilliant festivities. Mrs. Adams
had spent many years in foreign
capitals and was we'll equipped to
take her place as the head of society
in America.
~Old Hickory" Jackson barred the
inaugural ball, but held reception
after the Inauguration which nearly
resulted in riot. The crowd filled
the White House and practically
wrecked several rooms. l
The brilliant inaugural OF Presi-
dent Taylor was followed by simple
ceremonies for President Millard
Fillmore, called to the presidency
from the vice presidency by death.
The shadow of death also prevented
an inaugural ball at the time Frank
lin Pierce took office, but the ball
came into its own again at the
Buchanan inaugural, being held in
the immense building in Judiciary
square.
"Union Ball" for Lincoln.
Lincoln's first Inauguration was
marked by what was known as the
"Union ball." and the south was
unrepresented. Many prominent
Washingtonious also remained away
from the ball that night.
But the inaugural ball came back
in all its glory at the first Grant
inaugural. The Hayes inaugural ball
was a brilliant event. After the as
sassination of President Garfield
President Arthur came quietly into
Office. The inaugural balls oi
both of Cleveland's administrations
were brilliant affairs, his sister, Miss
Rose Elizabeth Cleveland, presiding
at the hrst and his wife, a White
House bride, at the second.
The Benjamin Harrison, McKin'
ley and Roosevelt Inaugural balls
were notable events, as was that oi
President Taft. -
And now, according to the present
inaugural managers, this historic
feature, abandoned for the last two
presidential terms, is to be revived
=, with greater splendor than ever be
fore. Every committee is determined
that the formal bow of the new
president and new first lady te
society shall be made under the mos
auspicious circumstances that evel
attended a similar ceremony.
