[illegible] as well is interested and all feel that now is the time to act. We will send a delegation of strong men from Omaha to meet the committee to which the bill has been refferred. Dr. Geo. L. Miller, Alfred Millard, Rev. John Williams, Rev. N. M. Meier Dr. S. R. Towne and others are willing to go and do what they can. The Omaha Gun Club is very active against the bill and is working strenuously. It would be very agreeable to the Omaha people if
