Argues Against Appropriation

App OPERATIONS by counties for the
aid OF their agricultural societies and
for county fairs operated by such
bodies should not exceed the total of
all premiums given. That is the con.
tention Of Ed A. Smith of Omaha in
argument of a case before the state
supreme court recently in which an
attack had been launched against the
county aid bill.
'Attorney Smith insisted that on &C.
OF a discrepancy between the
title and the body OF the state aid bill
OF the 1913 session, the act should be
nullifed. The title. he said, was much
narrower than the body of the law.
h law sets up nc restrictions as to
amount Of appropriation and the mem.
bers OF the Douglas county board, he
told the court. are levying 5 cents
apiece for each voter Of the county,
or a total Of $500 a year.

Quire county treasurers to remit state

lance by the fifth OF every month and
will contest the case.

CIVILIZATIONS
GREATEST TRAGEDY.

Extract from article by W. D. Lewis.
president Texas Farmers Union, OPP
posing Vomans suffrage:
I'VE are willing to join in every ef-
fort to elevate woman but will assist
IN none to drag her down. The de-
scent of womanhood is the most awful
tragedy in civilization. AS she sinks
she may, like the setting sun, tint the
horizon with the rays Of her depart
ing glory. She may tenderly kiss the
mountain tops Of her achievement
farewell; she may, like the sinking
sun, allure the populace with her
beauty as she disappears for the night
but when she steps downward, thd
earth is as certain to tremble and
plunge into darkness as death is to
follow life.
