Drexel Objects to
Bearing Expenses
of Clean-Tip Week
City Commissioner Drexel of the street
department la seriously considering the
abandonment of the annual plan of the
city to collect without charge accumula
tions of rubbish during the spring clean
up week. Mr. Drexel said:
"There Is n logical reason why the
city should do this work any more than
the city should go around and cloan snow
from sidewalks. It is true it has been
done for several years. The custom has
a tendency to cause householders to de
lay their spring clean-up and to save
every possible material for the city
wagon. The cost to this department is
between $3,000 and $4,000. Last year the
wagons were out six days. There are
many teamsters who are glad to do this
work, and I believe they should be given
the employment."
The city street department Is on the
last leg of Its spring clean-up of paved
streets.. Rubbish In gutters has been
placed In heaps and wagons are gather
ing this material, thus placing the streets
In condition for the spring rains. There
ara eight flushers at work.
Paving and Sewer

SMITH'S FEE GRAB
GAME MAKES BUNGLE
Ctuiet Uncle Sum to Put Wheel of
Federal Court in Motion Against
One Poor Fellow.
HE DID AS BOB SMITH SAID
The grab tor naturalisation fees by
District Clerk "Bob" Smith has put
on poor fellow In bad and eel In
motion the cumbersome and eipen
slve wheels of the federal court to
undo the harm the bungle has
caused.
The United States of America
against Abraham Jakob Bialoblocky,
oi 'Jakob Blotcky, 615 South Twen-tr-ntnth
atreet, la the title of a suit
Jt st filed. Blotcky was admitted to
United States citizenship February 7,
1916. Tha charge Is that he "was
granted naturalization illegally,
fraudulently and contrary to the
lnw," because" he did not aupplement
his petition for naturalization by a
vi' lid declaration of intention.
An affidavit of M. R. Bennington, chief
naturalisation examiner of the Depart
ment of Labor, is attached to the papers
In the- suit. It cites that Bialoblocky
was admitted to cltlsenshlp on petition
No. $410 and certificate of naturalisation
No. MOWS, which was illegally procured.
The affidavit continues:
ShnvM Support Petition.
"The official records of the United
.States naturalization service show that
when Bialoblocky presented himself In
the office of the clerk of the district
court of Douglas county for the purpose
of filing his petition the deputy clerk
of the said court advised Bialoblocky
that the law required of him that he
support his petition by his declaration
of intention; that the said deputy clerk
Insisted upon the declaration being pro
duced, but In this was overruled by his
superior, the clerk of the aforesaid court;
that the said clerk of the court insisted
upon the petition being accepted."
It Is stated further that mlth. clerk
of the court, Insisted at the final hear
ing in court that naturalisation be
granted Bialoblocky, although he had
not compiled with the provisions of the
law, stating that "a cancellation suit
could not harm a naturalised person, as
the said person, by refusing to litigate,
could avoid being taxed with the coats
and could, without prejudice to his cause,
petition anew upon completion of such
cancellation."
What About it, Frank?
To Franklin S. Shotwell:
In throwing- your hat in the ring
for state senator, you handed out
personal platform to which The Bee
fave publicity space for you.
This platform is, on the whole,
not a bad one except in its omis
sions. You say you are against the
sheriff's jail-feeding- jrraft and will
work for a law to have the pris
oners fed at cost to the county.
Now, Frank, add this one more
plank:
"I am opposed to erafters in the
district clerk's office as well as in
the sheriffs office. I will also
work for a law to stop the clerk
irom pocketing- fees of any and all
kinds so no court can clinch a hole
for him to reach through into the
treasury."
Rememberinsr how. as assistant
county attorney, you drew the peti
tion to make the then district clerk
put back the insanity fees he was
holding- out, this statement will
fit in very well with yonr own rec-
ora or opposition to grafters and
fakers.
How about it, Frank?
LIVE SNAKE IS FOUND

Henry Martin, clerk at the Farnam
grocery. 255S Farnam street. Jumped six

attorney. Russell is an employe of the
Her distillery and make t a montn.
Mrs. Russell lately has been working In
a bakery to support her children.
"I will not allow such a paltry sum
as that," declared Judge Leslie. "No
matter If the plaintiff does continue to
work, she should not bear the entire bur
den of educating her children and leaving
the man go practloally scot free."
"But Judge," Interposed the attorney
for the plaintiff. "We agreed on that
amount and we're luckly to get that."
"It don't make any difference. I'll not
stand for any such disgraceful amount.
I'll Just add a 130 bill to the $7.60 each
month."

Greater Omaha9 s Home Company Whose Policies Protect More Than
1,000 Homes in the City's Tributary Territory
NEBRASKA is annually sending
$5,00),0(X).00 outsido the state
for fire insurance. l)ollars that
never return to aid in development
and advancement are being paid in
premiums to foreign companies whose
Nebraska interests are infinitesimal.
During 191G and all the years to
come this figure will be materially re
duced because of the entrance into the
field of the National Security Fire In
surance Co. of Omaha the company
in which has been reposed the con
fidence and trust of an ever increas
ing ' clientele of policy holders
throughout Growing Omaha and the
entire Middle Went.
Nebraska has many institutions and
individuals that have a prior claim on
public patronage and esteem, but few
that stand out more prominently than
the National Security Fire Insurance
Co. The institution that, while profit
ing from public patronage, give6 back
to the people benefits in the form of
protection for their homes, investment
and development, occupies a position
of prominence and fcets a worthy ex
ample for emulation.
It was but a few years ago fince the
slogan, "Patronize Home Industry,"
was merely a slogan. By many busi
ness men it was regarded as simply
so many words. Today the citizen
appreciates the fact that wholesome
co-operation with his home dealers
and home companies means dollars in
his own pocket.
It has been largely through the ac
tivities of men at the head of the Na
tional Security Co., that thousands of
dollars that were formerly poured in
to the coffers of eastern fire insur
ance companies are being kept at
home to be used in the development
of Omaha and Nebraska farms and
homes.
The National Security Co. will cele
brate its second birthday in June,
1916
Only two years old and doing a
million-dollar business!
The company, formulated by pro
gressive business men who realized
the need for keeping this money at
home, was granted its charter in
1014, the capital and surplus being

lialf a million dollar. During the last
three months of 1915 fpJl.000 was paid
to the company in premiums covering
insurance totaling more than a mil
lion dollars. An average of $j,(XV is
being paid to the company every
month in premiums and renewals
and every dollar of it is reinvested iu
Nebraska.
Agents in .'?."0 growing communities,
who are licensed by the state of Ne
braska, are adding to the business of
tlip National Security Co.
Here are some fact to think about:
When the company wa organized
it brought eight new families of
bankers and business men to Omaha.
More than 1,000 home owners in
Omaha and the state carry policies
in the National Security.
Men who have made possible this
company are among those who have
placed Omaha in the lead. They are
empire builders.
Consult with these men regarding
the protection of your home.
When Walter A. George, former
state treasurer, accepted the presi
dency of the National Security Fire
Insurance Co., added prestige was
given a company already backed by
men of affluence in Omaha, Mr.
George's erHoiial knowledge of finan
cial conditions, bis wide acquaintance,
with bankers and business men
throughout th'e state and his executive
ability have enabled .the company to
make remarkable strides. Through
his activities the stock of the com
pany, as well as the agencies, have
been placed in the hands of financial
captains of the communities of Ne
braska. Tli is fact guarantees fur
ther protection to the policyholder.
Associated with President George
are men who have devoted years to the
perfecting of their professions. Few
business men are better known in the
progressive element than C. U. Clancy,
former state insurance commissioner,
the vice president and manager. E.
E. Howell, wejl known former state
senator, is vice president. O. A. Dan
ielson is secretary, while F. J. Zeman
is treasurer. The National Security.
Co. is a factor in financial circles, a
power of strength protecting your
home, a home company that haa a
prior claim on your patronage and
esteem.
