PLANS DEFEAT BY
LAVISH BRIBERY

Walter A. Smith, well-lsnown
citizen of Harrison county, presi-
dent of three different banks and
extensive landowner i'm Iowa, Ne
braska and Colorado, and gen
crous contributor TO the Red
Cross fund and liberty bond
cause, has sent to President Will
son and Governor Harding a plan
to hasten the end of the war and
to avoid the sacrifice of MANY
lives.
His plan proposes the offer by
the allied governments of boun-
ty for all German soldiers or sail
ors who will find their way to
British, French or American
trenches and give themselves up
as prisoners of war. The bounty
to he at least 500 for privates
and larger sums for Officers, good
care during the war and Transport
tatlon home al the close of the
war.
This offer should be made
through handbills in the lam
guagc of the Germans or their
allies, scattered by millions over
German lines and territory. The
evidence of discomfort among the
German forces makes this good
time TO make such an offer, and
might have tremendous. influ-
cnce to end the war before the
spring of 1913.
why not adopt the plans of
President Lincoln in dealing with
The Confederate army" said Mr..
Smith recently, in discussing this
plan. Toward the close of the
rebellion many southern soldiers
found their way to northern lines
and sold their arms and equip
ment for good price to our gov
ernment, and many of them en-
listed in the northern army with
the understanding that they were
not expected to fight directly
against the south. These SOL
diers did good service in garrison
and frontier duty, thus relieving
many men from the front. met

WILLIAM Il, wITnRow.

4 William HI. WithrOw passed
away at Council Bluffs hospital
lat 4 O'Clock this morning. For
the past six years Mr.. Withrow
has been suffering with harden
ing of the arteries and, while the
end has been expected for some
time, the call came suddenly dur
ing the still hours of the night.
He had been i'm the hospital but
a week when the final summons
came. For the past month he has
failed very rapidly, but even his
| immediate family did not realize
that the end was so near. His
last illness lasted but about an
hour, his poor tired heart refus-
ing to further pump his life blood
through his veins and he sank
quietly into a restful sleep.
William Hartman Withrow,
eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. j. R.
WiIhrow, was born in Ottumwa,
Ia, November 20, 1858, and died
at Council Bluffs, October "a,
1917, aged SO years and Al
months.
| He moved to Council Bluffs
with his parents when a small
boy and decided when a young
man to become pharmacist. He
graduated as a pharmacist and
located at Woodbine, where he
was married TO Miss Ella McCann,
November %, 1888. He came to
Missouri Valley 33 years ago and
had charge of the Missouri VAL
ley stock yards and has made this
city his home virtually all the
time since that date. He served
as county auditor one term and
was mayor of this city one term
HIS ability as an accountant was
recognized over the western part
OF the state and he was often
called upon to Straightcn out diff
llcult SETS of books. He was q
man of exceptional ability and
had friendship as large as his
acquaintance. While he has been
a sufferer for six years, he never
complained of his lot and his ma
tlcnce and good nature was tho
wonder of his many friends. His
wife passed away Christmas day
1916, and since that time he has
failed perceptibly.
