ABOUT THE CHILDREN's HOME

Editor Democrat have been
asked for my opinion of the appeal
that has been made through the
county papers for vote by the cit
izens of the county in favor of tax
of $4,000 to build modern home
for the orphan children of the coun-
ty. I wish to say that / am not in
favor of the project at this time,
from the fact that we are not able
to pay it. We are already over bur
dened with a heavy tax in the coun-
ty, and the prices of real estate and
farm products in many cases have
gone down to ruinous rate. Would
it not be better under present condi-
tions to try to get along in this case
and use a little economy, even if it
is little incOnvenient and unhan-
dy, than to go on increasing the al
ready grievous burden of taxation?
The wall comes to us that they have
no bath room to bathe the children
in, and they have to take them to
the calf shed or wood shed. Why
not bathe them in the kitchen? Now
as far as the bath room is concern
ed there is not one family in
uOAcu III MOISdu COuuCy tHdt has
bath room, yet the children as a rule
are all fairly clean and healthy. I
am informed that they don't average
more than a dozen children a year
in the institution and the home is
supplied with plenty of help. Now
l think a couple thousand dollars to
enlarge the building a little would
be sufficient to meet the emergency.
Now let me tell you what I do
think they need and that is to make
the farm for which we paid $4,000.
more productive, thus lessening the
general expense of that institution.
Mr.. Editor:-I was asked for
my opinion and 1 have given it. and
II you can make room for it in your
paper please do so.-A TAXPAYER

Death of Andrew r. Bishop

Andrew Ellsworth Bishop, young
est son of the late James and Mar
tha Bishop, was born Feb. 10, 1861,
and died Oct 28, 1921. Although
his health had been failing for the
past year, his last illness was Of
short duration. He was belfast ten
days. Those ten days were ones of
bravely and without complaint.
Naturally of cheerful disposition,
he took his illness and suffering as
he did all unpleasant occurrences of
life with a smile and CHEEKY words.
All that loving hearts and willing
hands could do was done, but to no
avail and his soul returned to it's
maker When he spoke to his loved
ones of leaving them, it was with
cheerfulness and faith for the life
beyond He was always a firm be-
lever in the Bible, in God, and a
better life. His was one of useful
ness spent in acts of kindness and
helpfulness to his fellow men. He
was known to his friends as Col
onel," and to know Colonel Bish-
op was to love and respect him. His
presence will be sadly missed by his
friends and neighbors. The family
loses kind father and a loving
husband He was married July 8,
1891, to Miss Alice Belle Lynn, and
for 40 years their lives were spent
in harmony and happiness.
To this union three children were
born, Jesse E., Milton L., and Mrs.
Mildred Patterson, who with the
wife survive him; also five grand
children; one brother, Wesley; two
sisters, Mrs. Jane Pierpoint and
Mrs. Letitia Mercer.

Was at the fair Sept 1916, the

different roads this summer, and
will say that the new gravel road

WISCONSIN LABOR LEADER IS SUED BY
 NEBRASKA VETERANS

OMAHA, Dec. 3.-F. H. Shoemaker of New London, Wis, was named de- fendant in a S1O0,000 suit filed in state district court today by William Ritchie, Jr.. state commander of the American Legion, on behalf of the Nebraska department of the legion. Ritchie charges that Shoemaker, at recent labor meeting, made false statements concerning the legion.
 The action against Shoemaker charged that among the statements he made were assertions that the le- zion was subsidized by big inter- ests," and that it was opposed to or ganized labor, it is charged. Ritchie said he obtained approval of the court action by long distance telephone from the legion national commander who was in San Francisco with Mar shal Foch of France, today. He de- clared the legion did not care about recovering damages, but wanted to prove at a hearing that the legion was not opposed to organized labor.
 The action against Shoemaker came about the same time that jury in federal court alsagreed and was discharged in his $50,000 suit against Harrington, Neb., citizens whom he charged with using tar and feathers on him after he had delivered Non- Partisan League address.
