NEED NOT EXPECT RELIEF
 FROM EMERGENCY TAX

Little Rock, Nov. 1-Those who are anticipating relief from the em- ergency taxes imposed by the United States government this year because of the European war, need not count very heavily upon any change, in the opinion of Revenue Collector Jack Walker. Collector Walker is of the opinion that the very first thing Con- gress does when it re-convenes next month, will be to again levy the emer- gency tax. For that reason he is pre- pairing his force for another grand rush immediately after Jan. l. The present emergency tax law expires with the old year.

II there must be trial for Ida Wal
ters' mad act let the state summon
this man to stand beside her in her
public ordeal as Arthur DfmmesdaIe
stood finally beside Hester Prynne
wearing the scarlet letter on her
breast!
Ida Rogers told her physician, DR..
Hague, Of a quarrel with Rogers
shortly before the commission of the
crime which she says she does not
remember, She said Rogers had told
her that his wife refused to keep her
agreement to release him and that he
might have to accompany Mrs. Caro-
line Giddings Rogers on a trip to Chi
eago. -
What future confronted the des-
perate, dishonored young mother if
these things are true!
With two children. two and four
years old, and a third on its way to
an unweIooming earth, she faced de-
sertion, shame, heI plessness, staVa-
ton. Physically incapieatsd by her
condition she could not even have
worked for her babies. Youth, hus-
band, honor, the respect of society,
all these things she had staked on the
love OF man and had LOST.
Not a strong woman-nOt a wom-
an in whom the mind controlled emo
ton or no man could have played her
such a trick, she faced blankIy a fu-
tIre without love, without honor,
without even bread and meat for the
two hsping babies clutching at her
skirts and for the still unborn child.
Is it any wonder she refused to go
forward into that fog Of despair with
out even the WiIl-of-the-Wisp of love
to lure her into its enfoiding black?

GRAVE TO KILL II
BY NI>[oLA GREELEY SMITH
New YORK, Jan. 2T.-The state Of
New York has nuFsed Ida Walters
Rogers" back from the grave in
order that It may send her to her
death in more legal ,fashionl
1t has preserved her from death by
bichloride Of mercury in order to put
her on trial for murder and kill her In
the electric chair.
How recklessly eXtraYRgant! What
waste of the taxpayers money! i
New York feels that the higher inter-
ests of civilization requires the life Of
this poor mad mother who killed her
babies why not simply have let her
die? Why use all the resources and
incidentally fortunes OF modern
science to drag her back from the
death she chose to the one the state
has legaIized?
This woman's arteries have been
opened and saline solutions injected
into her blood. What for? PrimaF-
lily, of course; to eounteract the ef-
fects of the mercury she swallowed
at the same time she poisoned her
children. But actually to put her in
jeopardy Of her life a second time and
according to the more approved route
of the death house.
! believe, that no state has the right
to take human. life, that majority
murder is just as sinful as any other
kind, and that the mark of Cain upon
the escutcheon of state is just as
hideous as upon a human forehead.
But it is peculiarly murderous to
take the life Of woman when, as IN
this state, women are practically out
laws. And women are practically

FATAL Accidental SILVER LAKE.

Raymond G. Halllsey, AZ, engineer at
the convent at Silver Lake, three
miles from the city, died almost in
stant[y last Tuesday morning from the
effects Of gun shot wound believed to
have been accidentally caused.
Hallisey had been out on the lake
shooting with shot gun and returned
to the boiler room to do some work.
Two of his children playing near heard
shot from there and hurrying in found
their father in dying condition trying
to crawl to the door. He died within a
few minutes. 1t appears that when he
went into the boiler room he placed
the gun against railing which guards
the engine. The space between the
railing and the door is narrow and in
passing through this space he must
have accidentally discharged the gun.
The charge entered his groin and in
dicted a terrible wound.
Mr.. Hallisey was born in Ohio in
1873. He has been employed as engin-
eer at the convent for several years.
He is survived by his widow and five
children, the eldest of whom is ten
years old,

EDUCATIONAL.
(By G. w. Meisnest.)

AS we stand on the threshold of an
other years work. let US pledge our
selves to one another, to the children
under our care and to their fathers
and mothers that we will work togeth-
er to make this the best year in our
schools history. The opportunity is
ours. If we seize it and push forward
with that purpose in mind, the salts
faction OF knowing we have done good
work shall be ours. and the benefits to
the county manifest. Many improve
ments have been made in the equip
ment of school plants. Some buildings
have been painted, new modern struc-
lures have replaced old ones, additions
have been built onto others. Addition
al teachers have been added to some,
reference works, maps, more black
board, and adjustable desks have been
purchased. The patrons have provid-
ed the money and the school officers
have used it wisely and judiciously. 1t
remains for US teachers to make their
Investments yield good dividends. Let
US make them large, obvious, conspi-
cuous.
Ii you ask bY what process this may
be accomplished. here is the reply:
Be on the job every day. Have the
building open in good season every
morning. Establish time for it to be
unlocked and see that it yields to the
first pupil who puts his hand to it after
that time.
When visitors honor your school let
them see that your work moves on
according 70 definite plan, that you
are prepared for it, that your methods
Of instruction are modern and that
there is a good, wholesome cooperative
spirit in your school. Make it part
OF your work to gather the people of
the district at the schoolhouse where
they can discuss topics of interest to
the community. Read the Bulletin
and thus keep in touch with the teach
ers in the county. Take an active
part in whatever is of importance to
the county-the fair, teachers meet
ipgs, contests, etc, and show that you
are live member Of, not your commu.
nifty, only, but also the Booster Club
OF the County" If you serve well in
these various capacities, the people you
serve will rise up to call you blessed,
and your school board will want to
keep you in the district even at an n
crease in salary.

DEATH OF MICHAEL KELLNER -
Michael Kellner Of Kellnersville died
on Monday morning Of this week. He
was taken sick with the influenza SO
prevalent last winter, and never fully
recovered his health. But he bore up
with that surprising energy which

in his nature to surrender while q
chance was left.
He was born in Neumark. Bohemia
Nov. IL, 1929. He came to this country
while a young man and settled In Can
ada where he worked at trade, that
OF tanner. His ambition was to be-
come a farmer and after he earned
some money he came to Milwaukee
and soon pushed his way to Manitowoc
He began his search for land and pen
etrated the forest until he reached the
western line OF Kossuth. The magni-
ticent plane of timberland in that Sec
tion soon determined his choice and he
purchased a large quantity. This was
in 1916 and he soon after built dwell
ing house on the land he bought The
indomnitable pluck a. the man was
shown by the trips he made from Kos
suth to Milwaukee and back, on foot
with only an Indian trial to follow for
a portion Of the way. 1t was often the
writer's privilege to hear the old gen.

SAVE YOUR SEED CORN.

The Bureau of Crop Estimates OF the
Department OF Agriculture has issued
the following through the Weather
Bureau:
Owing to the generally backward
state of this years corn crop, in many
of the northern but important growing
sections of the belt, there is danger OF
injury to the crop by killing frost, the
occurrence of which may be expected
at any time. 1t is therefore important
that every effort possible be made TO
secure good seed for next years crop.
Where any of last years corn Is left,
it should be gone over and the best
ears saved for seed. Moreover, as corn
natures unevenly, it is possible to Sc
cure seed from the early ears before
the rest of the crop is matured.
