Not q Minor office.


OMAHA, New. 2.-To the Editor of The
Bee: I notice some discussion as to the
length OF the ballot at the ensuing cleo
ton. Unfortunately this would affect
what are commonly called the minor Of
fices.
Among these are the offices of the ius-
tees OF the peace. AS a matter of fact
there Is no such thing as a minor office,
because all offices are Of importance to
the public. or a large proportion OF the
public. This is especially true of the
justice OF the peace. This office, being
by common acceptation considered
minor office. is put at the bottom of the
ballot. This is Just as important an of.
flee as any other. IL not more so, for
the reason that that is the common or
poor peoples court, in which matters are
litigated. although small in amount, are
OF great importance TO the litigants.
As a general rule. people who have
cases in court of the justice OF the
peace are those who cannot afford ex-
pensive litigation therefore the law pro-
vides that any one. whether he be a law
yer or not. can conduct the case, making
1t necessary that men OF known ability.
honesty and integrity should be elected
to the office.
Another reason why the office of JUS
tice OF the peace Is extremely important
is that a great deal OF litigation arises
In the first instance in that court.
1 desire to call the attention OF the
voters to this important office, so that
they may not fail to vote in spite OF the
length OF the ballot.

After visiting other state universities,

OF the university was =. 10000 That
amount was fixed by the resident Lincoln

constantly states that this request was

OVERRIDING Halloween Franks.

OMAHA. Nov. ITO the Editor Of The
Bee: The account OF the man shooting
boy in Council Bluffs as the result OF a
Halloween prank reminds me of
prank saw played-or rather after It
was played-at Forty-first street and
Lafayette avenue Saturday night Half
dozen boys, all old enough to know
better-they ranged. should suppose
from IL to Is years-carefully procured
some good sized logs and laid them
across Lafayette avenue i'm such a way
as to cause serious damage TO any
vehicle whose driver might not see the
obstruction. II would have been very
easy. under certain circumstances, to
have MANNED or killed some one. Yet, I
suppose had any man seen the boys put
the logs there and taken it on himself
to reprove them he would have got into
all sorts Of trouble for his pains. And,
no doubt, some grown-ups might have
taken the boys side and argued for an
unrestrained licensce-'let the boys have
their fun on Halloween night. Boys al
ways have and always will celebrate
this occasion" Many parents do not be-
lieve in restraining their children on
Halloween. but the police can't patrol
