sole survivor cast UP on tronic
shore.
n1n-

an effort to smile.

Congressman johnson

The Webster day county, World
editorially reports a speech made by
Congressman Royal c. johnson as
follows:
In his speech at the county fair
Congressman Johnson did not at
tempt TO make a complete or elabor-
ate argument on any particular sub
ject. II" only sought to call the at
tention OF his hearers to a few prop
ositiona upon which public opinion
must pass in the next few years.
ono of these was that o a change
in the state constitution whereby it
will be possible to make a distinction
in the assessing of property for tax
alton between property that is being
improved and property that is held
for speculation. Mr.. Johnson believes
that if 4 farmer builds a better house
or a new barn IN his place he should
be entitled TO an exemption of tax
alton to a considerable extent of the
cost Of his improvements, and that
il should be the rule to lay the heav-
lest burden Of tax on idle or unim-
proved property which some specula-
tor is holding for the very purpose of
taking TO himself the increment of
increased value brought about by the
general u%pbuilding of the country.
Mr.. Johnson touched upon the sub
ject of preparedness and said that he
believed the middle ground is right,
between those who want to build up
a great military and naval establish
ment and those pacificists who be-
lieve in the doctrine Of non-resistance
The subject of rural credits is n
that particularly appeals to Congress
man Johnson.
The rate of interest on farm loans
in the United States is so much higher.
than in other countries because of
the lack of system under which the
loans can be obtained. s,
"In the European countries a bond
system exists under which all mort
gagged form properties are jointly
pledged for the bond issue, so that If
an investor buys a thousand dollar
bond he neither knows nor cares on
what tract of land he is secured upon
nor does the borrower know nor care
who his creditor is. The bonds gen.
orally draw 6 per cent for a certain
specified number of years and at the
end of that term the principal is
wiped out by the 6 per cent interest
that has been paid.
"Mr. Johnson made it very clear to
his audience that congress and the
government never move very far in
advance of public sentiment. If the
people want progress and reform
they must get busy themselves. Dis

PROMINENT MAN DEAD.
George L. Kirk Resident of Geddes
Country, Commits Suicide.

Geddes, =. D.-George l.. Kirk, one
Of the best known residents of this
trunty, committed suicide at his
ranch near Academy by shooting him
self. He was one of the pioneer set
Tiers of the county, having located
here in 1882. For some years he was
the publisher of the Record Republic
can, which in the days before the adj
vent OF the railway ranked as one
of the leading local newspapers in
this part of the state. He was always
a prominent worker in political cir
cles, having held several important
positions, and at the national conven-
ton at Baltimore was one of the
delegates from this state.
Up to July l last, Mr.. Kirk was
resigned this post in order to give
closer attention to farming interests.
He leaves a widow, from whom he
secured a divorce only a few months
ago, and a daughter 16 years Of age,
now residing with her mother at
Waterloo, Ia.
No immediate cause can be given
for his suicide, although it probably
resulted from brodoing owe i'll
health, together with his family
trouble. M
He was the administrator for the
estate of the late w. H. Menzie, and
had been giving this close attention,
along with his own business affairs.
