The Womans club of Lincoln has begun
crusade against the pool rooms of that
city. short time ago the clubs atten-
ton was called to the fact that number
OF young mon, minors, students at the
State university, were being distracted
from their studies by the attractions of
these resorts. 1t was intimated, too, that
the sons Of club women were among the
number. The women at once instituted an
investigation and finding that inquiry
avaied nothing, some of the most promi-
nent members of the club went personally
into the places complained of. The boys
were found and reported to Probation on
Ger Hoagland. The proprietors Of the
places assert that no boys have been ad-
mtted, except as they have produced writ
ten permits from their parents, but the
women are not to be put off in this way
and are continuing their personal investi-
cation.

WoNAn II CLUB AND CHARITY

IL the determination OF the women OF
Omaha can avail anything the Douglas
County petsntion nome is going to be thor
ouRhly understood and receive all possible
support from the public. The work OF the
home, with the operation Of the Juvenile
court and probation system. has been the
subject Of q score OF meetings Of the various
wumens organizations OF late, the object
being a general campaign of education re
garding the new Nebraska law. Many are
opposed To the maintenance of the detention
home on the ground that 1t Is expensive and
the women mean that these shall learn that
the home Is Indispensable auxiliary to
the Juvenile court. Mrs. r, d. Towle, as
sistant probation ofloer, addressed the
Womens Christian Temperance union
Wednesday afternoon on the work OF the
court and recited from her personal expert
ence several cases to illustrate its need and
what 1t Is capable of accomplishing. Mrs.
Towle's recital indicates the necessity In
Omaha OF some such auxiliary organization
for the assistance OF little and young
girls as is being operated 50 success
fully in Denver by the club women. Under
the auspices OF the women Judge Edward
L Bradley, superintendent OF Allendale
farm, a part Of the detention system of the
Chicago Juvenile court, will speak at
Creighton Law school this evening. The
meeting will be open to all interested.
The movement of the Juvenile Improve
ment association I'm connection with the
Juvenile court work is spreading all over
the country. In Denver Judge Ben Lind
sey, the little man who gives the boys
square deal" has called to his aid the
various womens organizations, and an
auxiliary has been formed that is to safe
guard the interests of the girls the as
ISOLATION protects the welfare of the boys.
The Business Women's league has offered
it's headquarters for the social meetings of
the auxiliary and all the other organiza-
lions of women are doing something to help
the work along. While believing thoroughly
in preventive and reformatory work among
the boys, the women feel that the girls are
their especial charge, and a great deal OF
time and work has been given during the
past two years to the establishing and fos-
tering of the Junior Business Women's
clubs. The results have been satisfactory
beyond what was originally expected from
gathering these little self-supporting girls
into organizations where cooperation and
the helpful friendship of older women can
be made effective. Practically everybody
has come to know now what is being ac-
complished for boys through the medium
Of the juvenile court, the probation system
and the improvement association, but until
very recently the little girls have had no
safeguarding influence until brought under
the jurisdiction OF the court. The moral
degradation to which these girls are ex-
posed while earning their own living or
when left neglected by ignorant or irrespon-
sible parents is almost incredible. and It is
these children that the auxiliary would
reach and save.

UNcoMmoN WISDOM.
Sistersville People Should Profit
by Nelgnbor's Experience.

It's a wise, man who profits by
the experience Of his friends and
neighbors. Here is chance to
do it, and every man, woman or
child in Sistersville who knows
the misery of bad back, the ner-
vousness and restlessness caused
by kidney complaint or the an
noyance of urinary disorders, will
show uncommon wisdom to profit
by this citizens advice.
Frank Huff, who lives OH the
South Side, near the bridge,
Parkersburg, says; "My kidneys
were always weak, but during a
year the weakness developed into
something more serious, causing
a good deal of pain in the small
of my back and side. Sharp
twinges caught me often, espec-
tally when stopping or lifting, and
I was so bad sometimes that it
hurt me to straighten. When l
took cold it affected my kidneys
and back more than any other
part, and I was compelled to do
something for it. I went to a
drug store for Doan's Kidney
Pills. They cured me-"

MAKES IMPORTANT RULING
GENERAL GIVES oPlN-
ION ON REDUCING OF DE-
LlNQUENT TAXES.
Have No Authority to Accept Less
Amount Of Taxes Than Appear
on the Rolls.

County commissioners have no au-
thority to compromise tax, or to ac-
cept less amount of taxes than ap-
pear on the rolls, according to an opin-
ion of the attorney general rendered
recently, All over the state such COM
promises have been made by county
boards, notably il cases involving
Northern Pacific property, where COM
missioners have accepted from 40 to 50
per cent of the face as full payment
from the railroad.
The particular cases which called
forth the opinion originate in Thurston
county. In recent years a large
amount of delinquent property mas been
taken up by the county.
Recently there has been a growing
demand for these lands, and weekly
the treasurer has been conducting
sales. Increasing good prices have
the tax deed property owners were not
alarmed, but when individuals began
buying the county's tax titles the orig
inal owners became alarmed. Many
have arranged compromises with the
county commissioners, redeeming the
property by paying part of the tax for
which it was sold.
The plan is all wrong, says the at
torney general, in an opinion to the
prosecuting attorney of Thurston
county. When the county takes tax
deed it acquires the title just as if it
had bought and paid for the land.
There is certainly no authority of
law for the transfer of title to prop
erty by stipulation" says Assistant At
torney General R. F. Booth, of Seattle,
who writes the opinion. Referring to
the general proposition of compromis-
ing taxes the opinion says:
rs a tax a debt? A careful examl-
nation of the question leads me to the
conclusion that it is not, and l am
dragged to this conclusion much as
cat would be dragged across carpet,
protesting every inch.
1T is the opinion of this office that
the board of county commissioners has
no right or authority to settle or COM
promise any tax levied for county or
state purposes; that a tax is not debt
within the meaning of Section 41O5 of
Pierce's Code" which permits commits
sioners to compound or release In
whole or in part a debt due their
county.
