Frazier, non-partisan senator-elect
from North Dakota, declares. that in
the senate he will have no piper to
pay, except the' people of the state.
"Altho elected on the republican
ticket, the republican national com
mittee did' not contribute one cent, to
my campaign," declared the '.'dirt
farmer," who came back in politics
to receive the highest gift within the
power of the people of his state one
year after he was recalled during the
third term as governor a humilia
tion suffered by no other chief state
executive in the United States.
The non-partisan league wnicn
many politicians, both among those
friendly and inimical to the organi
zation, believe will never again func
tion as a party organization in the
state, is credited by Frazier with the
progressive successes of the last election".
"The non-partisan league is
stronger than it ever was," Frazier
declared. "Wherever the league has
worked progressives have been elect
ed." He mentioned .Dill. Washing

Minnesota; Laroliette, Wisconsin,

and Charles Bryan. Nebraska, as
elected by non-partisans.

further credit extension, is the need
of agriculture, Frazier asserts, plac
ing himself on record for price sta
bilization, repeal of the Esch-Cum-mins
law, and amending the federal
reserve law to make it "more workable."
Word has been received here by
old friends of the death at Flint,
Michigan, of Mrs. Catherine Simpson
widow of the late John D. Simpson,
former mayor of Plattsmouth and a
pioneer resident of the west. Mrs.
Simpson had been making her home
at Flint with her daughter, Lou, as
she was well known here in her girl
hood days.
The deceased lady was in her
eighty-eighth year and has lived a
l!fe full or the wonderful experiences
of the pioneer days in the west and
during h'er residence in Plattsmouth
was a very talented musician and in
fact many of the older residents of
this city were given their musical
education, at her hands.
Mrs. Simpson was the daughter of
Captain and Mrs. Andrew J. Klepser
and was born in Delphi, Indiana,
whore on July G, 18.r3, she was unit
ed in marriage to John D. Simpson.
Mrs. Simpson was known in her old
home as a very gifted musician and
when the family came west to the
territory of Nebraska she devoted
much time to her musical work and
was more than usually successful in
bringing to the pioneer community
the wonderful touch of a gifted mu
sical talent and education..
Mrs. Simpson, while a resident of
Plattsmouth, was one of the ladies
who made and presented the flag to
Co. A of the 1st Nebraska, raised in
this county in 1S61 and commanded
by Captain R. R. Livingston, later
general of the brigade.
The husband was elected county
treasurer of Cass county in 1S57 and
later the family removed to Denver
where Mr. Simpson was engaged in
bookkeeping for a few years, return
ing to Plattsmouth in 18G4 and was
then engaged in partnership with
Wheatloy Micklowait, the first may
or of Plattsmouth.
The deceased lady was here at the
time the Burlington railroad was
surveyed through this section' and
had the honor of throwing the first
shovel full of dirt that marked the
construction of the railroad " line of
the Burlington & Missouri River rail
road in Nebraska at this point.
In the years that passed Mr. Simp
son a3 identified with work for the
Burlington and Mrs. Simpson contin
ued her musical work in this city
and was very prominent in the social
life of the community and particul
arly in the Episcopal .church of this
city where she was organist and lead
er of the musical work for years.
There were two daughters born to
Mr. and Mrs. Simpson. Lelia and
Edith Luella,' both of whom Inher
ited the musical gift of the mother
and made a wonderful career for
themselves in this line. '
Since the death of the husband.
Mrs. Simpson has resided with her
youngest daughter in. Michigan un
til her death which -occurred Febru
ary 10.
