Johnson who died at his home in Weeping Water on August G. 1919. was well known throughout Cass county, where for almost half a centurv he had made his home and for a number of years resided in l'lattsmouth while serv ing as county tax collector. In speaking of his death the Weeping Water Republican has the follow ing: Darwin Mervin Johnson was born in Madison, Wis., on April 19, 1S5 4, end passed away at his home in Weeping Water at 7:25 p. in.. Wed nesday, August 6. 1919. at the age of G." years. 4 months and IS days. He moved to Weeping Water in 1874, and on October 2, 1S75 mar ried Miss Mahala Coon at Pli:tt!- liicutlK To them four children were born: Guy II., cf York; Mabel Jameson. Clara E. Wight and Lu cile of Weeping Water. During all but the last few years of his residence in Weeping Watr, he was one of the town's moot prom inent business men. He was for many years a member of the Chris tian Science church. He was also a member of the order of Odd Fellows and the. Masons, whose pood fellow ship and companionship he most thoroughly enjoyed during his act ive life. On account of failing health htr decided to go out of business and do something that would take him out of doors. During the last year he failed very rapidly ami on the 7 of February was taken sick in Lin coln, and on March 2nd was takn to his bed at his home in Weeping Water where he passed awav five months and four days later. All that medical skill and loving hands could do for his comfort and to bring him back to health were of no avail. All through the months of his ill ness and as long as he was conscious he was patient and cheerful. Every thing done for his comfort pleased him. and every little dainty prepar ed for him to eat or drink was, as he always expressed it, "the bet yet." Toward the last, he slept most of the time and always when asked if he were tired, would answer, "yes, awful tired." He was a man who loved his home and like his home town aliove every thing. And, to those he left behind to mourn and miss him. it is a great consolation to know that his last days were spent in the home he liked so well, in the room he chose for his own when the house was built; and that the wife and four children were with him to care for him until the last spark of life flickered out. He had many friends and loved to have them in his house. When he became too ill to see' those who :ame to see him he was greatly pleased with the flowers and other remem brances they. sent. Short services were held at the home at 4 p. m., Saturday, conduct ed by Rev. W. II. Riley of the Con Tregational church. At the grave the services .were taken In charge by the Masons. Relatives from out of town who eme to attend the funeral were: Mr. A. V. Downey, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Vosberg, Lincoln; Mr. Wm. Coon.

Morn ing of the district court of Lan caster county is upheld by the su preme court of the state. Monday morning Judge Morning rendered an opinion in the mandamus action re- cetly brought by John II. Hopkins of Omaha to require Darius M. Ams berry. secretary of state, to receive and fie the referendum pet ii ions. which would suspend the action of the legislature in ratifying the amendment submitted to thc states by congress and refer the matter to the voters for confirmation or re jection. Tho court held that the legislative action was properly sub ject" to reference to the people and granted the writ. The case was argued la -t week. Mr. Hopkins, the relator, appearing in his own behalf and Deputy At torney General Ayres representing tho secretary of state. Two ques- i tions were involved and Judge Morning decides both of these in favor of the relator. The first one was as to whether the act or reso lution ratifying the amendment was one which under the initiative and referendum amendment to the state constitution was subject to refer ence to the voters. Many authori ties are cited to the effect that any action taken by a legislative body or court is an "act" within tho meaning of the law and it i declar ed that any matter is subject to reference except those expressly ex ?epted in the referendum amend ment. The second question involved waj as to what constitutes tho "legisla ture" of a i t ate. The federal con titution provides for the ratifica tion of amendments to the national constitution by the ' legislatures" of the various states and it was argued on behalf of the respondent that PRICKS XOW ARE Hens. jcr lb 2;c Springs, per 11 1 J )tu ks. per lb ( )ld rosters, per 11). .

Judge Morning cites the opin ions of the supreme courts of Ohio and South Dakota and of the United States supreme court to the effect that in states thai have made the initiative and referendum parts of tho constitutions the legislature or law-making body consists of the en tire electorate. Therefore the "leg islature" has not acted until the people have voted on the ratifica tion resolution, provided the proper referendum petitions are filed. return and gave come home. him a hearty wel- DAN C00NEY RETURNS.
