A "suRKestiOn" from Dundee.
OMAHA, Jan. 1A-To the Editor Of The
Bee Allow me to make a suggestion on
the question Of annexation. The citizens
Of Omaha and surrounding cities and
villages each have a right to their views,
but this constant discussion with con-
siderable feeling throughout these years
is not bringing about results, which
should be sought by all fair citizens.
We have, as / understand it a law
which permits the annexation Of cities
and Surrounding cities and villages by
the vote and consent of each--that Is, the
marriage of the two municipalities is with
the consent of each, and there Is no
foroer permissible and citizens generally
are opposed to force or any force bill"
which joins municipalities without the
consent of both.
II, as some say, the financial conditions
Of the city Of South Omaha are bad. and
the financial condition OF Florence also
in poor shape. cannot see why at pres
ent Omaha citizens would wish to add 10
their burdens the burdens of those two
cities could see why they, II those con-
ditions are true, should desire to be re-
lieved Of them and have them placed on
the city Of Omaha
The proper way TO approach this whole
matter is TO wait until 1918, the aitting OF
the legislature preceding the next census
year. when there will be an argument for
annexation which does not now exist,
that is. the argument Of population that
It would give Omaha, And in the mean
time. those favoring annexation. who are
mostly in Omaha, and for the purpose OF
showing an increased population, should
be friendly with the adjoining cities and
villages and adopt the system OF educa-
ton and Kindness rather than that Of an.
tagonism and force against which all
people, especially in this country, rebel

The joint picnic given September "a

borough, A.O.F., at Shell Mound park +,
was fairly well attended. but not what
it should have been, as it was the last
one of the season, and it was an ideal
day-just the one that Prophet Fred
Moore had ordered. Dancing was kept
up until IL o'clock. The Orphean
orchestra furnished the music in the
evening, and was a decided improve
nent over the last appearance. Nathan
Hardy and Sinclair Moore acted as the
floor managers. The contest for the
most popular baby was won by the little
Page girl. The l50-yard handicap lace
between Walter A. Butler and Nathan
Hardy was walk-away for Walter; he
won with ease with about fifty yards to
spare, but he was IS richer at the finish.
Several strangers were present. All
enjoyed themselves, and said they had
a pleasant time. Chairman Henry
Godfrey will have small balance for
the treasury
