THE VOTERS OF SEWARD

There seems to general impression 1 that the coming bond election is a final and bona fde election for the l issuance of bonds for building a school house.
 1 It really is referendum vote to get the opinion of the taxpayers and voters of Seward as to the advisabil- ! ity of asking Congress at this time for authority to issue bonds. Should
 the election carry then the mayor ] and city council will request our del egate to introduce a bill in Congress tauthorizing the town of Seward to is- sue bonds not to exceed S1O0,000. It
 will then become necessary to hold another election to legally determine
 the amount and validity of the issue
 before the town can be bonded.
 So why worry about taxes and
 meeting our obligations? At this
 time it is somewhat previous.
 The necessity for better school fa- cilities is beyond all argument and, I believe, universally admitted. The amount, as indicated above, is left definitely for future decision. However to have concrete propo- sition the city council decided to set the amount not to exceed $1OO,OOO.
 Should the proposition carry and congress grant us permission, the city council will undoubtedly place sev- eral propositions before the people and it will be up to the taxpayers talk ing future conditions into considera- tion to decide whether they need S1O,O0O or a $1O0,OO0 school house.
 Your city council deemed it advis- able to place the matter before you at this time for the following reasons: This Congress is what is known as a short term, expiring by law on March 4. There will most likely be no extra session of Congress and the regular session with the newly elect ed members will not meet until the first Monday in December. Should any of the fond hopes and dreams that we have cherished for our term
Seward daily gateway., 1925-01-13

for 20 years become true; should a
 cold storage plant or the pulp mill o1
 any other large increase in our popu lation occur without this authority
 obtained at this time, it would be i'm
 possible to get proper school facili
 ties in less than two years. Should the voters of Seward vote to author ize the mayor and council to ask Congress for permission to issue bonds, and should Congress grant us that right, we can start building a schoolhouse within thirty days after
 the people decide if necessary.
 Preparedness is the keystone of success. The public school is the keystone of our national life.
 Vote for the Keystone.

yours Truly"

Did you ever stop to think how
the formal methods of concluding
a letter and describing the rela-
ton of the letter writer to the one
to whom the letter is addressed or
iginated?
Obviously when the various ex-
pressions were first used they were
intended to be taken at their face
value. The man who first signed
himself, yours, truly" meant to
say that he was the servant or
friend of the person addressed, and
to meet any possible doubt as to
his sincerity in the mind of the
other, by declaring that he was
truly" that which he claimed or
Sincerely" so, if he varied the
form.
Now, of course, as a rule when
we assert that we are yours,
truly" or yours, sincerely" we do
not in the least mean that we are
the servant of our correspondent
and very often we do not mean
that we are the friend. We make
the formal assertion more often
and more strictly if we are writing
to stranger or to an acquaintance
concerning whom we are indiffer-
ent, and when we say we are his we
do not in the least hope or care
that he will believe we are sincere
about it nor do we in the least care
to assert that it is the truth.
Eut we have a feeling that some
thing must come between the end
of our communication and our
name and make use of these mean
.ngless forms. How would it be if
somebody would start a reform and
begin placing the signature direct
ly after the end of what he really
had to say Superior Telegram.

MORE LAWS ARE ADDED
Something Like 800 New
Laws Given the People of
Wisconsin.

IN the disposal Of bills and reso-
buttons, the record of the legisla-
i've session, which was ended two
weeks ago, was much the same as
that OF 1928, although the recent
session adjourned two weeks ear
llr than that of two years ago.
Of the LA bills introduced in
both houses, 454, or slightly more
than one-third, became law. Two
years ago, 467 of the 1,246 meas
ures were enacted.
The senate had the largest num-
Der of bills-576. Of these, 163
were killed in the upper house, So
were withdrawn and So were killed
IN the assembly, according to I'M
official figures. Thirty-six of the
272 that passed both houses were
vetoed by Governor Blaine, leaving
236 to become laws.
Of the SOS bills introduced in the
assembly, psi were killed, or with
drawn in that house, and 81 were
killed in the senate. The governor
vetoed thirty-seven Of the 255 that
passed both houses, leaving 218 to
be written on the statute books.
The governor eliminated twenty
more bills by vetoes this year than
be did two years ago. He disap-
proved of 73 measures in the re-
cent session and 50 in 1923. All of
the vetoes this year were sustained
by the legislature.
Joint resolutions adopted by both
houses numbered 1913. Each house
contributed "a of those adopted,
the number introduced in the sem
ate being Sc and those in the
assembly 108.
of the resolutions which did not
require concur renee Of both houses,

The White Mans Rnrden-

Great Britain steadily moves to-
ward the position of Guarantor OF
the Peace of Europe. With a cour-
rage that matches the peril of the
proposal, the Empire ceases to be
merely the ally Of France but
moves toward the higher place of
| judge between France and Ger
many. 1t is now Gear that Britain
to allay the fevers whence wars
spring forth, will give Germany no
less guaranty against French ag-
gression than she will give France
against German attack. Britain
thus offers her faith, her prestige
and her power as a neutralizing
element thrown into the caldron
of European fears and suspicious.
The extent of responsibility
which this entails is not clear. To
guarantee either country against
attack by the other, means consid-
cradle more than promise of ALI
ance with the attacked country as
against the aggresser. 1t means a
guaranty against the aggression
ever being made. And this in turn
involves an oversight of each ma
tons tools of attack, If France
goes on piling up ornaments, or if
Germany goes on restoring her
military strength, Of what value
would Britain's guaranty be should
either France or Germany assert
the right to use it's armament?
There would seem to be no other
way than for Britain to stipulate,
in return for her guaranty, that
the military preparations of both
nations cease forthwith, since now
reliance on Great Britain makes
them needless.
Will France and Germany accept
such terms? True, they have not
been suggested as yet, but are they
not involved in a guaranty against
aggression from either side?
And if they are not openly sug-
gested they are at least dimly
Iimned in the Chamberlain state
ment that this guaranty would be
real step toward disarmament
since it would allay fear. Indeed,
cessation of military preparations
would be essential to the integrity
Of the guaranty.
Thus Britain checkmates the
poker-playing Of both France and
Germany in their attempts to line
up the Empire for war. Britain
offers the guaranty in such wise as
to line up both France and Ger
many for peace. 1t is one of the
great developments of the times
