AIto Is among the Cass county
towns noted for its large shipments
of grain products, but last week a
shipment of unusual value was made

took one car to handle it, the value
was in the neighborhood of $4,500.
The shipment consisted of 500 bush
els of clover seed and was consign
ed to Toledo. Ohio, by Gollaher Bros.,
formerly of Elm wood, but now of
Lincoln, and Ray Coatman, of Alvo.
The seed was purchase d of the farm

39 per bushel and while in the past

Ask your neighbor! A Plattsmouth

outside. I have had to get up as
often as every hour of the night to
pass the secretions. Sometimes when
going up or down the ladder I
would have quick stitches take me
in my kidneys that felt like needles.
I have always found Doan's Kidney
Pills a very reliable medicine for
this trouble. A few always give nie
good relief and keep my kidneys in
good and active condition. I would
not be without Doan's for I know
what they will do and have done.

"NO PEACE ON
EARTH UNTIL
IRELAND FREE"
SO SAYS MAC SWINEY'S WIDOW
IN RECITING ALLEGED OP
PRESSION BY BRITON
Washington. Dec. 9. The widow'
of the late lord mayor of Cork. Mrs. !
Muriel. MacSwiney. presented today j
to the commission of the committee
of 100 investigating Ihe Irish ques
tion. the history of the hunger slrike
in Brixton priron. London, of her
hiifband and of hi-; death and the
details as site had witnessed them
of attempts by the Irish republicans
to gain lreedom for their country.
Mrs. MacSwiney concluded her
story with the declaration "England
shall have no peace, the world will
have no peace, until our republic is
recognized."
Miss Mary MacSwiney. sister of
the late lord mayor, recalled to add
details to the story she told the
commission yesterday, added to the
declaration of her sister-in-law the
assertion that the coining winter
will be Ireland's Valley Forge, and
appealed for American aid, not. she
said, for the men and women of
Ireland, but lor the children.
"The corning winter in Ireland."
said Mrs. MacSwiney. "will be hard.
The British have destroyed our crops,
our supplies of food. The men can
get on; the women can stand the
suffering, but. it is for the children
I plead. We must have help this
winter.
MacSwiney Died Happy
The widow of the lord mayor of
Cork declared there was no choice
for the Irish republicans but to
stand together, whatever the cost,
and continue the fight for indepen
dence. She said it was such a spirit
that actuated her husband to re
fuse food until death.
"I knew my husband was happy
as his physical strength was worn
away by hunger, for his countenance
absolutely radiated peace and con
tentment." Mrs. MacSwiney assert
ed. "I was besought to plead with
him to take food. But I would not.
for I never, never would interfere
with my husband in a matter of
conscience. It was his choice. It
was the 'decision of his spirit."
Miss MacSwiney expressed the be
lief that the fatal hunger strike of
her brother had greatly benefited
the Irish independence, movement.
She told of the series of telegrams
she had exchanged with Premier
Lloyd George in an attempt to fix
tesponsibility for her brothers pris
on sentence and for the treatment
he and his relatives had been ac
corded by the British government.'
Blames Lloyd George ,
"The result of this exchange of
telegrams," she added, "made me
feel that Lloyd George was respon
sible before God and man for the
death of my brother. I shall con
tinue to feel that way, and I shall
continue to spread that feeling
throughout all of Ireland.
Miss MacSwiney gave an account
of what she characterized as con
spiracy between officials of Brixton
prison and the British home office
"to defeat plans of the family to
take the lord mayor's body back to
Cork," because, she said, "the Brit
ish feared an uprising and they did
not want any more,trouble than they
already had."
"We Irish are no domestic prob
lem of England's." she said. "We
are an international problem. Our
Ideals, the ideals of all Irish repub
licans, are the same, and my plea to
the American people is that you at
least give fair play and justice to
us, for the British stories of the
separatist movement do not carry all
the facts. We are not divided, and
we intend that the whole world
shall know the truth, both of our
cause and the misrepresentations of
the British."
The commission tomorrow will
hear several former members of the
Royal Irish constabulary.

NO EXTENSION OF
TIME-0 PAYMENT
Of Last Installment of 1920 Income
Tax Collector Loomis Advis
ed by the Commissioner.
The .Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, WashiiVgfon. D. C. writes
to Collector Loomis under date of
December 1st, as-follows:
"December 15th is the last day for
the payment of the fourth install
ment of the income and excess profits
taxes due this year. To avoid pen
alty the tax must be in the offices of
Collectors of Internal Revenue or
branch offices by midnight of that
date.
"Inquiries reacting the Commis
sioner of Internal Revenue indicate
a belief that taxpayers have ten
days grace on this Installment. Such
a provision was contained in the 1917
Revenue Act. but was removed by
the Revenue Act of 1918.
"Payment of the fourth install
ment may be made in cash or by
money order or check. The Bureau
of Internal Revenue urges that when
ever possible payment be made by
check or money order. This method
helps the taxpayer by saving him a
trip to the collector's office and
avoids congestion at the cashier's
window. Check . or money order
should be made payable to "Collec
tor of Internal Revenue."
"Bills will be sent to taxpayers,
but failure to receive a bill doe3 not
relieve the taxpayer of his obliga
tion to pay on time."
Good Advice
Take Chamberlain's Tablets as
soon as you have finished your sup
per and they will produce a gentle
movement of the bowels on the fol
lowing morning. They will also im
prove your digestion and make you
feel better in every way.
