Representative Arney Intro
duces Bill of Much Interest
to Marshall County
HOME MEMBERS CONCERNED
Member Of Soldiers Home, in eeeom-
ina Admitted, Would Be Required to
Furnish Certificate of Residence from
County Whence He came-soIdiers'
Home Appropriation Bill Presented.

In the lower house today, Represer-
tative Wallace HI. Arney, Of this coun-
ty, introduced an important measure
that will be Of much interest to Mar
shall county. 1t is a bill requiring
county officials to certify the resi-
dences of all persons becoming mem
bers of the Iowa Soldiers Home. The
idea OF the bill ID to protect records so
that in case any member goes insane
while a member of the home the cost
for his support in the state hospital for
the insane may be taxed to the county
where he has legal residence.
The bill Is OF more Importance than
a casual glance might indicate. With
the age Of old soldiers averaging be-
tween so and 70 years, there are many
cases of insanity that need action by
the local board Of commissioners. The
Soldiers Home Is not an insane hos
pital, and the state makes no provision
for the care Of insane patients here. 1t
is necessary to place them in the state
hospitals for the insane, and upon a
hearing and commitment, the board of
supervisors taxes the costs to the
county from which the member was
admitted This oftentimes results In
much correspondence, and sometimes
1t is necessary to take extreme meas
ures to get the counties that really
should stand the expense to admit that
they are liable. With the officials fur
nishing certificate OF legal residence
before member is admitted to the
Home. all this will be overcome.
Home Appropriation Bill.
Mr.. Arney today also introduced the
Iowa Soldiers Home appropriation bill,
calling for $4,000, as recommended by
the board Of control. Commandant
Horizons estimate was, $20,050. but the
board made some minor changes. mo-
ticeably the cutting out OF the coal
house and improvements to the grounds
and adding more for fire protection.
The commandments request was for a

FUEL FAMINE PREDICTED.
Coming Winter VIII Witness Scarcity
Of Coal in the Northwest.

Cleveland, O.-The northwest will
suffer more severe coal famine the
coming winter than the record break
ing one last year, according to coal
shippers here. Discussing the situa-
tion, a prominent mine owner SAID:
There are now 100 big ore car
riers up the lake waiting cargoes.
They cannot get away until the ore
reaches the docks, which means a de-
lay of perhaps ten days. These huge
vessels when they reach Ohio ports
with ore are not going to take back
coal No vessel owner who is not
under contract to carry coal will
wait for a coal load, so the north
west probable, even with 10000 900
.ons Of coal in the docks by the first
of December, win experience another
fuel famine before next spring"
