Pros Barker started out over

starting over the road the other
side of the Bennett bridge. When
he got to Charley Howe's place,
about a mile further on, he was
told that the water was rising
fast and if he expected to ge
back home that day he had bet

The High Water
Last Sunday night one of the
most destructive rain storms ever
known in the state fell in Lan
caster, Cass and Otoe counties.
At Unadilla there was a cloud
burst. A wave of water four
feet high rushed through the
lower part of the town at 11
o'clock at night. Several houses
were wrecked. One family, the
man, wife and three children,
were drowned.
The water was the highest ever
known in Lincoln, being three
feet high in the Burlington de
pot. It is thought 10 persons
were drowned. Great damage
was done to property.
In Ashland seven persons were
drowned.
Lincoln was without train ser
vice all day Monday, all the rail
roads entering that city having
been put out of business by the
lood.
At Brock, Auburn and Bracken
the Nemaha river was the high
est ever known. The fact that
Lhe water in the Missouri river
was lower than it has been for
some time helped matters here,
but the water south of town was
the highest it has been this year.
The flood "did not reach this
part of the county until Tuesday.
Charley Stanley says the water
raised three feet in five minutes
Tuesday forenoon in the Nemaha
river west of his farm. He had
a stake set, measured the rise
and had his watch out to take
the time.
T. F. Woods, who moved off
of the Seymour Howe farm some
time ago, on account of high
water, moved back Monday, but
the next day had to move out
'again. This time the water raised
in the lower story about half way

We remember when there was
strenuous objection to the propo
sition, a good many years ago,
to add a third teacher in the
Nemaha schools. Then when
it was proposed to build a new
school house, to replace the old
one that had been condemned,
it was argued that to do so would
ruin the district. And yet the
house was built, and the bonds
paid off, and no one felt the bur
den materially. Last year, when
it was proposed to put in a fur
nace to make the children com
fortable, those opposing the
movement claimed it would put
the district badly in debt and
ruin us to keep up the expense.
But the voters refused to be
frightened, the furnace was put
in and a good janitor hired, and
now no one would favor going
back to the old way.
The same old arguments are
now being used by those who are
opposed to adding a fourth teach
er. They say the previous im
provements have been good ones
but that now it is time to call a
halt. They are honest in their
opinions, borne oi them are
heavy taxpayers. But we think
they are mistaken, just as those
who opposed former improve
ments were mistaken.
About the only thing a poor
man can give his children is a
good home training and a com
mon school education. The bet
ter facilities we can provide for
the latter the better it is for all
concerned. Even for those who
can afford to send their children
away from home to educate them
it would be quite an advantage
for them to keep their children
at home a year or two longer, if
we have good schools to send
them to. '
One of the principal arguments '
used against the proposition to !
add a fourth teacher is that it
will run the district in debt. The
has been abandoned on account
of the park being flooded.

It will be seen that a 25 mill tax
will raise more than the $2,500
voted. We have about $300 on
hand now. Last year we re
ceived almost $100 in tuition from
non-resident pupils. This will
be materially increased with a
fourth teacher and added grades,
but count it at $100. The state
school money will be about $240.
This gives us a total income, in
cluding the money on hand, of
$3,140-$305 more than the esti-

Vote for better schools, even
if it does cost you a few dollars
more in taxes. The money will
be well spent.
