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.

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 IN BUNCH OF BANANAS Henry Martin, clerk at the Farnam grocery. 255S Farnam street.

Tim 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 USUI im ii i I j ;'' f 'U "" ' ' '" . ) !f! j ... . . fry- 1 , ".;. r .

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.
