Federal Corporation Law.

Spencer, Neb., Jan. 3l.-Edtor
News: Allow me space for few words
anent the federal corporation law un.
der consideration in the present con-
gress.
Stockholders in corporation secure
by statute two great privileges, share
voting and limited liability.
AS the public is learning slowly and
surely the value of franchises for ope.
rating telephones and street car lines,
so in time, the valuable privileges,
special privileges not natural rights,
fer will assume tangible value to be
reckoned in dollars and cents. In
recognition of this principle, the pro-
posed federal law should contain pro.
visions for the incorporation, abso-
lutely without cost, of associations re-
tanning only one of these special priv.
leges; that is surrender share voting
in favor of manhood suffrage, or. if so
desired, retain share voting and sur.
render the limited liability privilege,
as in common partnership; all cor
pOratiOns on the common old basis be-
ing subjected to an internal revenue
tax on its franchise regardless of in
come.
1t is a singular fact that the funds
OF tho obscure common people, that is,
the deposits in savings banks and the
premiums held by insurance COM
panies, are the financial bulwark of
the commercial world, but the ultimate
owners have no voice, whatever, in
the control of such funds. With man
hood suffrage in the management of
such concerns, sane socialism would
never NEEDLE with the government,
whatever it might propose regarding
the business domain.
Yours truly,
G. w. Whitehorn.

Hadar Robber Making Brooms.


Pierce County Leader: Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Mcdonald returned Mon
day from ten days visit at Fremont,
Fairbury and Lincoln, Neb. At Lin
coin Mr.. Mcdonald went out to the
state penitentiary and visited his
nephew, jefferson Ward, who is chief
clerk of that institution. He was taken
through the prison and one of the
Convicts whom he readily recognized
was Jim Morrison, the fellow who was
sent up from this county for robbing
the Farmers State bank at Hadar.
Morrison was manipulating machine
which has part in the making of
brooms. There are now $50 convicts
in the penitentiary. Mr. Mcdonald
was told by Mr. Ward that in a short
time the prisoners would be classified !;
that is, the toughest convicts would be
put together, the next toughest by
themselves, and so on. 1t is thought
that this plan will prevent the younger
convicts, or those serving light sen.
fences, from coming in contact with
the older or confirmed criminals and
drifting into their ways. One can
readily see the reasonableness of such
plan.

Y. M. c. A. Collections.

Treasurer Davenport is glad to an
nounCe that there is very encourag-
ing increase in the payment of sub
sCriptions now due to the Y. NJ. c. A.
Hoping that the good work may go on
the plan is to delay the placing of a
collector in the field till February 3.
At that time published statement
will be made of the entire amount of
unpaid subscriptions, and strong eff
fort instituted to clear the matter up.
The building committee is confronted
by the fact that a small subscription
that can only be collected through the
efforts of paid collector is reduced in
net value at least 10 per cent. Pay
ment can be made at any one of the
three banks or at the Office of the
treasurer, at the f. +. Davenport shoe
store. Those of the subscribers who
feel equal to closing up their entire
subscription by making one payment
at this time will thereby do good work
in helping along this somewhat compli.
