BY PAUL GREER.

Lincoln, Neb.. Aug. H.-Nebraska
one Of Americas most produeiiy,
agricultural areas, was without a de.
partment OF agriculture until 1919. II
was only after the adoption OF the
civil administrative code that the
needs Of this chief industry Of the
state were recognized.
Today under the code, the secre-
tary OF agriculture is one OF the most
important officers OF the state gov
ernment, heading one OF the six de-
partments established by that law.
The platform upon which the demo
cratic party stands calls for the abol-
ishment OF these departments and a
return 10 the previous system Of gov
ernment by commissions.
Today the governor appoints a
man to take charge Of each OF these
six departments. Yesterday, before
the Inauguration OF the code system,
the governor himself acted as the
head OF II commissions, appointing
a deputy commissioner TO perform
the actual work OF each one. Tomor-
row is destined to sec one OF two
things, the further economical dcyel-
opment OF the simplihed code or a
return to the more primitive system
and the wiping out OF the code.
Bureau Might Perish.
In the latter case the governor
would again act as chief OF the state
veterinary and livestock sanitary
board, the food, drugs, oil and dairy
commission and the game and fish
commission. In this event the bu-
rcau Of markets and marketing, one
of increasing importance TO the farm
ers, and which never existed in the
old days, would remain unprovided
for.
One can not visit the state capitol
without being impressed with the
magnitude of the responsibilities of
the Department Of Agriculture. Its
most interesting spot is the testing
laboratory. Here in one corner are
two state employees testing farm seeds
for percentage OF termination and
purity. For the protection OF the
farmers and OF the food supply, each
bag of seeds for field crops sold in
the state must bear tag describing
its variety and quality. The per-
centage OF weed seeds and other mix
lures must be stated, as we'll as the
OF seeds that contain
enough of the germ OF life TO grow.
Even Soda Pop Tested.
The walls are lined with test tubes
and other chemical apparatus. The
men at work with them are engaged
in testing the purity of stock feed,
gasoline, kerosene, vinegar, soda pop
and all sorts Of food products. There
are boxes Of pepper, spices and break
fast foods, bottles of drugs and liquor
and an infinite variety of articles
which are suspected of menacing hui

Couple Whose Dogs
Killed Man Accused

Sacramento, Cal, Aug. l7.-Mrs.
Mable Ross Belar, said to be a d.
rect descendant of Betsy Ross, and
her husband, Lewis Belardi. were
held responsible by coroner's jury
last night for the death Of lbro Biso,
a rancher of Antelope, near here, who
was set upon by pack OF lS dogs
owned by the Belardis.
According to the most recent story
told by Mrs. Belardi to the police,
she was engaged in a quarrel with
Biso outside the shack on her ranch,
when he attempted to strike her with
a club. She demonstrated, and one oil
the dogs rushed at Biso and the re-
mainder of the pack followed, tear
ing his clothes to shreds. The dogs
continued their attack until called
off by her, Mrs. Belardi said. '
She carried the injured man TO the
house, she told the police, He was
beyond aid and died before she could
summon medical attention. To save
the dogs from any penalty, she did
not mention the part taken by them
in the attack, but said the victim
came to her place injured in search
OF medical aid. Later she admitted
this statement was a fabrication and
the dogs were shot by the authorities.
The verdict OF the coroner's jury
indicates the evidence produced
strengthened the police theory that
Mrs, Belardi attacked Rso with
club before the dogs attacked him.

arising from walkouts Of operating
brotherhood men on far western
railroads was easier today. All those
who had been out on the Western
Pacific, which links San Francisco
with Salt Lake City, returned to
work late yesterday, and some hours
later 1t was announced that the en-
bargo which that road had imposed
on perishable freight some days ago
had been lifted. The Union Pacific's
Salt Lake City-Los Angeles line was
cleared last night by return of
brotherhood men at Las Vegas to
work. On the Santa Fe, now as
previously the most severely ham

trains were moving as fast as emerg-

taking Warden George w. Jamison
with them. The prisoners fled in a
motor car, parked by a tourist just
outside the prison walls.
Several posses OF state, county and
city officers, aided by members OF
the local post Of the Aperican Le-
gion, Immediately started in pursuit.
Early tonight the prisoners had not
been overtaken and apparently War
den Jamison had not been released,
as no word had been received from
him by local authorities.
The only trace Of the fleeing men
was contained in report from Ellis,
where they stopped and stole an
other car, presumably in hopes OF
avoiding detection.
Regarded as Desperate.
The four men. whose names arc
Henry Coffee, Joe Foreman, Joe
Teel and J. B. King, were serving
sentences for grand larceny and were
regarded as the most desperate in
mates OF the institution
1t appeared to officials that the
escape had been planned in advance.
The four men started commotion
in the tailor shop at the prison this
afternoon, and Deputy Muchow,
hearing the noise, hurried 10 ascer-
tain what was the trouble. When he
reached the shop. the convicts at
tackled him with knives which they
had obtained from some unknown
source. Deputy Muchow resisted
and was badly cut ~ being stabbed
twice in the abdomen and once in
the breast, as we'll as sustaining sew
eral minor slashes. A report from
the hospital was to the effect that
his wounds, though severe. would
not prove fatal.
Overpower Warden.
Warden Jamison was in his office
at the prison at the time OF the at
tack, and also hearing the noise in
the shop, hastened down. The men
overpowered him and at the point
of their knives forced him to lead
the way through the prison gates to
the outside after they had thrown
Deputy Muchow and guard into
cell.
Reaching the garden just outside
the prison they leaped into the car
and sped north. A guard on the wall.
noticing them, fired, but feared to
aim directly at the occupants because
of the warden's presence in the car.
Authorities here believe that the es-
capped convicts will keep the warden
with them until they have travelled
safe distance from Sioux Falls so
that, in case of being closed in on,
they could use him as means OF
protection from gunfire. The only
weapons the prisoners had when they
left here were the knives
Much excitement followed the
near riot at the penitentiary. Other
prisoners scurried back and forth.
and many left their usual positions,
but apparently none other than the
four attempted to escape.

sible purpose OF framing a concrete
program to be submitted TO the eS-
ecutives. The brotherhood men who
made il plain that their position was
solely of mediators, went into the
afternoon parley without breathing a
word OF the proposals for strike
settlement which they were believed
10 have drawn 10.
Shopmen Stand Firm.
But ii the train service me nwefe
silent, representatives OF the striking
shopcraits gathered 10 await the re-
suit OF the conference. made il plain
that they did not believe any pro-
posal would be made by the running
trades which would include a sacrifice
OF their seniority rights. While rep
resentaliycs OF the strikers would not
permit themselves 10 be quoted, they
indicated they would stand as firm
as ever on the proposition that. they
must be taken with their seniority
ranking unimpaired.
A committee representing the ex-
ecutives headed by T. Dewitt Cuyler,
chairman OF their organization,
lunched together and then went TO
the conference chamber, where they
awaited the arrival OF the mediators.
At z O'Clock the conference was on.
Two hints of what had transpired
escaped.
Study Former Rulings.
First, the executives sent for files
containing decisions OF thS railroad
labor board in which that body, in
rulings bearing on other strikes, had
directed that strikers should forfeit
seniority rights. This was taken TO
indicate that the question OF seniority
which had figured SO prominently in
the two efforts by Presiden. Hard
ing TO end the strike, had bobbed up
again.
The second hint was obtained from
julius X. Kruttschnitt, chairman of
the board Of the Southern Pacific,

before it adjourned, indicated that
