How Alliance Has Grown
The Herald man in talking wih F.
M- Broome, agent for the Lincoln
Land Company, is enabled to give its
readers an idea of bow Alliance has
grown during the past ten years The
following table of the lots sold is taken
from the company record:

Total
972
All of these lots were sold to actual
residents and not to speculators. Most
of them now have dwellings and busi
ness houses upon them, occupied by
owners of the property, a small per
cent being occupied by renters. In
1899, about the fartherest house out
north was J. R. Phelan's and the one
of Albert Johnson being about the
only one on Big Horn avenue. Since
that time the company has platted the
following additions: County addition;
First County Addition; Second County
Addition; Wyoming Addition; Sheri
dan Addition and Nebraska Addition:
and out of these additions the bulk of
lots above enumerated were sold.
Many lots sold thus far this year have
been sold by metes and bounds and
will be given lot and block numbers
as soon as the company surveys out a
new addition and files the new plat
with the county records, which will
be in a few weeks and will embrace
territory on the north and east of the
new high school building and also a
new street west of County road.
In addition to sales enumerated,
there have also been sold tracts of land
outside the corporate limits. The forty
acre tract for fair ground; twenty acre
tract to Drake, and the blocks for the
various schools. .Mr. Broome informs
us that with the opening of each of the
new additions, pessimists and croakers
without number have predicted that the
town had reached its limit, in fact there
has not been a year that this prediction
has not been made and yet like a land
slide on the mountain side, each suc
ceeding year has witnessed develop
ments gathering in greater and stronger
force until now there is no influence
powerful enough to stay the rapid
growth of the city. Alliance has just
begun taking on its mature growth.
W. C. T. U. NOTES.
Mrs. Francis B. Heald, State Pr esl
dent V. C. T. U., has the following to
say in explanation of the initiative and
referendum and some reasons for the
same:
1. "By initiative we mean the pro
posal of a law by a petition of the peo
ple. The proposal, when backed by
a petition bearing the signature of a
certain per cent of the people of the
state, must be enacted by the legisla
ture into law and submitted to the
whole body of electors of the state for
their approval. Thus, when the legis
lature refuses to give the people what
they want in legislation, this initiative
petition compels them to pass the bill
and submit it to the vote of the elect
ors. The difference between the in
itiative and the present form of peti
tion is that the initiative is compulsory
while the present form of petition is
simply advisory.
3. "Referendum gives the voters of
the state the right to approve or reject
all the laws passed by the legislature,
except emergency measures, such as
are necessary for the maintenance of
public health, peace and safety. This
power to be granted on a petition of a
certain per cent of the people of the
state."
Some reasons for initiative and refer
endum law:
1. "The people, and not the repre
sentatives, elected to serve for a cer
tain time, should rule. The govern
ment over the people should be a 'gov
ernment of the people, by the people,
and for the people.
2. ''Under the system known as the
delegate or finul-vote system, now in
operation in the'state, the people have
little to do with legislative enactment.
They are limited to power of the bal
lot and the right of petition both of
which may be ignored by the so-called
representative. When once In oilice
this representative may ignore all pe
titions and vote as he pleases. The in
itiative compels the representatives of
the people to enact the bill asked for in
the petition.
3. "Without this initiative and ref
erendum pawer it will be seen that In
stead of passing laws that people want,
the so-called representatives can and
do make laws the people do not want,
and they can and do refuse to make
laws the people do want.
Following is a timely talk, also by
Mrs. Heald:
"The commission form of govern
ment for cities, which has proved such
a" success in Des Moines, la., and many
other cities, is fast spreading all over
'this country. Its essentials are based
uporf the general principles of the initi
ative and referendum. There are many
reasons why we women should make a
careful study of Political Economy and
the Science of Government. One or
two will be sufficient he-e. 'Let the
people rule' is- in the air and means wa
are soon to have franchise for vomen.
If we are posted on these questions we
can talk them over In the home, and
husbands and sons that have no time
to study can become Informed and
helped to cast a vote for the home rath
er than the saloon or other special in
terests. And to those who are posted
it will make an added tic of fellowship
In tho home which might mean moro
pleasaut evenings together.
"If you live In a city that Is 'rum
ruled' or politically corrupt, send to
the city clerk of Des Moines for Infor
mation on the Commission plan.
"Slnco the papers all over the coun
try are startling and awakening us to
the 'whiteslave traffic and tho work
of the 'Juvenile Court' In saving child
criminals, it behooves us mothers of
the W. C. T. U. to carefully investigate
local conditions that bring such results.
Institute curfew, investigate the cheap
entertainments, picture shows, etc.,
and you will dud in most cases they
are as bad or worse than the 'yellow
backed novels,' To see tho horrible
deeds of crime and vice acted for
amusement even though It may end
with what is advertised as a 'good
moral lesson,' is debasing and demoral
izing to anyone and much more effect
ive on young minds and hearts. Not all
moving picture shows are bad but tho
time has come for legislation that will
close out the portrayal of bloodcurdling
scenes of crime and soul poisoning
sins. We have laws to protect our fish
and birds, let us Investigate and tako
stops to protect the children."
It Doesn't Pay.
"It doesn't pay to have one citizen
in the county jail because another citi
zen sold him liquor.
"It doesn't pay to have fifty work
ingmen poor and ragged in order to
have one saloonkeeper dressed In broad
cloth and flush of money.
"It doesn't pay to have these fifty
working men live on bone soup and
half rations in order that the saloon
keeper may llourish on roast turkey
and champagne.
"It doesen't pay to havo ten smart,
active and Intelligent boys transformed
Into hoodlums and thieves to enable
one to lead an easy life by selling them
liquor.
"It doesn't pay to have one thousand
homes blasted, ruined and turned into
hells of disorder and misery in order
that one wholesale liquor dealer may
amass a larger fortune." Clarion Call.
Miss Lura Vance took third place In
the State Oratorical contest, and dem
onstrated that her subject, a phabe of
Prohibition, appealed strongly to the
people as she had more applause than
the others. Lura rejoices especially
that she had the opportunity to make
her appeal to so many Nebraska voters.
