LEXINGTON, Neb., Sept. S.-To the
Editor Of The Bee: l wish to express
through the columns Of your paper my
hearty appreciation for the Kind sup
port given me by many friends through
out the state for the nomination for

SHEEP-Receipts Of sheep were liberal
this mornins' about 100 cars being reported
number reported in one week ago. AS was
the case all last week the receipts con-
sisted very largely Of lambs, there being a
surplus Of that kind and a scarcity Of avail
able sheep, both killers and feeders.
The ract that It was Labor day, the pack
ers being closed down, made the demand
for Killers very much less urgent than il
would otherwise have been. 1t placed buy
ers In a position where they could holt off
waiting for the market to weaken before
filling orders. At the same time the at
tendance Of country buyers was none toe
: large, as il very apt to be the case on a
not leave home until Monday and hence it
is afternoon before the feeder buying con-
tingent Is ready to get down to business.
Under such conditions It is hardly neces-
sary to add that the market was unusually
slow and dull, as well as late in opening.
The feeling was weak and buyers without
exception were talking lower prices for
lambs. The forenoon was pretty wei! adj
Nanced before very much business was
In spite of the dull opening on lambs,
the most of the killers changed hands in
pretty fair season, although prices were
generally l0dl5c lower than last week.
There also proved to be a pretty fair in
quiry for feeding lambs, but the trade nm
that kird was dull, as noted above, and IL
was well along in the afternoon before
anything like a clearance was effected.
Sheep, on the other hand, were active
sellers, owing to the fact that the sup
ply was rather moderate, while the demand
was good. The prices paid were generally
about on a par with last week. This was
true of killers and feeders alike, ard the
offerings were generally disposed OF at a
very seasonable hour.

OMAHA, Sept. $40 the Editor of The
Bee: Kindly permit me through the me-
dunn of your paper to express my sin
cere appreciation for the support given
me at the recent primary election by the
many friends who believed that the
negro voters of Douglas county should be
given some sort of presentation by the
republican party, with whom they have
always been loyal as a race. From tbs
report of your paper, the 1921 votes cast
for me shows conClusively thai l received
80 per cent of the colored vote that voted
on primary day, even though opposed by
one of my race.
Twelve years have elapsed since we had
representation in the state legislature,
and Just as long as w can be bought by
money and promises, Just so,5ong will
the negroes of Douglas county be with
out representation. 1t is high time that
the American negro learn to do things
from principle, learn to exercise that
right of American citizenship which the
three amendments to the constitution of
these United States gives him the right
to do, and not be drawers of water and
hewers OF wood" all the days of their
life. Yours truly.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb.. Sept. 40 the
Editor of The Bee: Your prominent edi-
torisl this morning on the McCleary project
Of a Lincoln memorial highway from Wash
ington to Gettysburg j~ustifies one, perhaps,
in believing such defense of this PROPOSE
ton to be sincere, but 1 believe the project
to the vast majority Of our citizens must
seem bizarre and very Inappropriate.
Through the centuries of human history the
civilized world has acclaimed worthy me-
MORALS of its great leaders and benefactors
in the form OF enduring monuuents of
bronze or stone. almost always to preserve
a likeness Of their living persons, and II
these be executed with due regard to the
artistic sense they seldom fail to inspire
the beholder with reverent regard. In an
age so LACKING in art as Is this one, when
II is questioned whether we have produced
an enduring poem in the last generationi
when oratory has degenerated into talks, "
and architecture of our public and semi
public buildings into what we see generally
in this country today, it should not much
surprise us to learn that someone proposes
to build II highway leading out of Wash
ington as a memorial to Abraham Lincoln.
To be sure he did not much use this kind
of a highway after he became eminent. A
highway is for travel, and Lincoln Travelled
less than any other president. And on the
only occasion he ever visited Gettysburg
he did not happen to go that way at all.
But never mind. This highway will serve
as a remembrance at least Of the real es-
tate men. who doubtless are booming the
project.
Sir. the time is not yet ripe. This dis
cussion however. should be serving one
good purpose. 1t should bring us to see
that not yet can a worthy memorial of
the great Lincoln be set up in Washington.
Assuredly he is a subject, and this is an
occasion. which we'll might inspire a great
artist. But where, after st. Gaudens. is
our great artist? When the time comes
a worthy memorial of Abraham Lincoln
will be built by the people at the capital
of the nation whose life he saved. What
ever form that memorial snail take. 1t
should either itself be or it should contain
some dignified and worthy representation
of the person of the great emancipation.
Foo myself, 1 do not believe the naming
after him of a roadway, or a string Of
coal barges or a telephone company will at
ali satisfy the patriotic sense of the Amer
lean people. LOUIS A. ARTHUR,

Besides having the honor of being
successful in their examinations for

of being the first to graduate from the

active interest IN the school work dur
ing the year and they deserve the sue
cess which they have attained.
AS the pupils have taken an interest
in the school it shows that the patrons
have taken an interest also. May sue
cess be theirs. ADDIE NOGAN, teacher.

A Surgical lmpossibiIity.

Nine out of ten people believe" said
surgeon, that the eye can be taken
out for repairs, just like the works Of
a watch, and again replaced in the
socket precisely rs it was before. A
moments reflection ought to show any
one how impossible this would be. AS
a matter Of fact, the eye Is held in
place by no fewer than six taut mus
cles, and in order to turn it out of the
socket at least four Of these would
have to be cut through. Besides, it Is
connected with the brain by thick
nerve, which cannot be stretched, and
1t IS also connected with the inside Of
the skull by blood vessels, and If these
were cut they could never be reunited.
Perhaps time will come when a dead
man can be restored to life, but you
may feel perfectly sure that the re-
moval and restoration Of the eye is a
surgical feat that Will never be per-
formed"

A HOME REMEDY.
One That is Endorsed by Leading
Druggists.
As Excellent for Stomach Trouble.

The manager for a prescription drug
store in Chicago, store that fills more
prescriptions than any other drug store
in the country, says, that the following
prescription is positively the best that
they ever filled for stomach trouble:
Compound Tincture of Cinchona, one
ounce; Prosene Compound, one ounce,
and Sherry wine, half pint; mix and
take in teaspoonful doses before each
meal and at bed time in wine glass of
water.
He states that it is the Procene CON-
POUND that does the work. This prepa-
ration supplies the stomach with Pan
create Juice, and this is what digests
what you eat, and with the help of the
greatest vegetable tones known to sci
ence the results are marvellous.
Bell & Robinson can fill this simple
prescription. AS Prosene Compound is
put up for prescription use only, SO
every prescription drug store has it in
stock
