Political Enmity
Caused Charges,
Says Mrs. Bishop
Sarpy County Schools Superintendent
Takes Stand in Own Defense
Judge to Decide Monday
Sarpy county political gossip and
detail! of a Dlot to "catch up" the
Papillion postmistress were recited
Thursday afternoon when the $25.25
stamp case in which Miss Bishop
superintendent of Sarpy county
schools is charged with malfeasance
of office, went to trial.
On the witness stand in he
defense. Miss Bishop averred
.,1. i rt Vl U-arA tllA Oil t -
lut lUdl&ra sfll,,ai
growtn 01 political ennmy, aiiu pitu
ed the principal blame on Joseph
Strawn. county clerk.
"Was there any feeling of ill-will
on the part of Mr. Strawn?" inquired
w
msnop.
"Well. Mr. Strawn said I had
charged that he did abstracting and
and I think
he did." replied Miss
Bishop.
Grievance Denied
Called to the stand to identify
warrants paid bv Sarpy county to
Miss Bishop for expenses, Mr. Strawn
denied having any political grievance
ae-ainst Miss Bishop, asserting his
interest in the charges was simply
that of a public official.
In presenting evidence against
liam P. Xolan endeavored to estab
lish that several receipts for a total
of $25.25 worth of stamps either
bore signatures that were not those
of the postmistress, or that amounts
of the receipts had been changed af
ter they had been signed at the post-
office.
At the close of the hearing. Jus
tice of the Peace Stormer took the
case under advisement, promising to
decide Monday whether or not Miss
Bishop shall be held for a trial by
iurv. The assembly room of the
Sarpy county courthouse was well
filled when the hearing began.
Mrs. Holtman Talks
Leona Snyder. PapUlion postmis
tress, and Maude Welch, her assist
ant, both long-time friends of Miss
Bishop, were principal witnesses for
the state against her
Miss Bishop admitted that on sev
eral occasions she had raised the re
ceipts. She made them out and be
fore having them signed at the post-
office, she required more stamps, and
consequently raised the receipts to
the amount of stamps she had pur
chased, she said.
Mrs. Alice Holtman and her sis
ter. Mrs. M. T. D. Williams, and Miss
Bishop's brother and sister-in-law,
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Eishop. all of
Omaha, testified that they had seen
Miss Bishop make out a "framed" re
ceipt and had accompanied her to the
postoffice. where the postmistress
signed it.

EARLY HISTORY
Recent delving into old archives
brought to light an interesting docu
ment of the time when the Burling
ton system was young. It is a peti
tion presented in 1S5S by 15 resi
dents of Naperville, Downers Grove
Brush Hill (later Fullersburg and
now part r.f Hinsdale) and Lyons
! asking the directors of the C. B
&
Q. to build a line "from Chicago via
; Naperville to connect with your road
at "Aurora." Seventy years ago th
j Burlington comprised about 23
! miles of track the original 12 mile
i built in 1S50 from Aurora to Turne
J Junction, plus lines from Aurora t
Galesburg and from Peoria to East
! Flu I'll i ptrn lnt li:il tin rn t fn n n
its own into Chicago. The petition
ers plead their cause at considerabl
length, eetting forth the diversified
beauty, productiveness, residential
attractions and potential freigh
business along the proposed route
"which is at present deprived of
railroad facilities." One of the items
of freight mentioned as waiting for
better transportation was beer from
the Lyons brewery, "Now equal to
one carload per day" and ready for
expansion to "supply any increased
demand which the building of you
road would create." On condition of
early building, the signers pledged
free right of way for about two
thirds the distance, but owing chief
ly to the Civil War the road was no
begun until October. 1862, and took
10 months to complete. It is the
line over which we now carry some
30.000 suburban passengers daily
15,000 each day.
