Is a Wite-Bcatcr
Liable to Spouse?
Supreme Court is to Pass on Question
of Seventy Thousand Dollar Sam
age Case Against Husband.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S. If a husband
beau his wlf till she la bruised and
bleeding, even crippled for Uf, should ah
be allowed to sue him for damages or
would such suits violate th sanctity of the
horn and tend to break up civilisation?
Such a question was laid today before the
supreme court of th United State for its
decision,
Jessl EL Thompson, wlf of Charles N.
Thompson, both then living in th Dlstrlot
of Columbia, sued her husband for 170,000
damages for seven alleged assault upon
her. The nature of th alleged assaults
and Injuries were never brought out in
open court, because before the suit came
to trial th court had given judgment In
favor of the accused, on th plea that at
th tlm of th alleged assault the par
tie were husband and wlf.
It 1 probably th first tlm that the
supreme court ha had to pas directly
upon suoh a case. Whll It decision will
not be binding In Jurisdiction other than
the District of Columbia, states having
similar laws to th District of Columbia
In this particular, such a New Tork,
Maine, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minne
sota and Iowa, will be concerned in the
outcome of th litigation.

The Commercial club yesterday hart tin
dor consideration the commission form of
government for South Omaha. The outline
of a' bill was presented by the special com
mittee appointed durinn the annexnt on
acttatlon and on a vote the report of the
committee was placed on fie and the com
mittee continued to watch over the lnter-t-sts
of the city should any attempt be
made during the next legislature to take
Ktcps forcibly to snnex the southern burg.
This motion was a substitute to a propo-
s tlon to place the report on the table, and
it had It origin In an expression of opin
ion of one of the members of the meetlns
that uch summary treatment would be
unfair to the committee who had given
such time and trouble to an Investigation
of the subject. The position of the club
Is lnd.cated by the statement of the chair
man, W. B. Cheek, following his vote for
the amendment. "We do not want to dis
regard the work of the committee and It
will do no harm to keep this matter as it
is and continue the committee."

One day in 1843, while addressing the United States senate, he pictured that portion of country, which we know
today to be full of natural resources, many being already developed, as being nothing more than a burden to tho nation,
then in her infancy. The following is his description of this wonderful section:
"What do you want of the vast and worthless area; that region of savages and wild beasts, of deserts,
of shifting sands and whirling wind, of dust, of cactus and prairie dogs? To what use could we ever hope
to put those great deserts and those endless mountain ranges, impenetrable and covered to their very base
with eternal snow? What can we ever do with the western coast, a coast 3,000 miles, rockbound, cheerless
and uninviting?"
The Western Land-Products Exhibit
to be held in Omaha January 18 to 28, 1911
"Will 6how what use has been made of this worthless (?) area, and what the possibilities are for its future. In 1909 Nebraska's
cereal crop alone was valued at $165,979,000. In this same year this state produced $4,914,000 worth of potatoes and $13,
650,000 worth of hay. In 1909 there were thousands of settlers in tho irrigated sections of Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho,
Montana,. Oregon and Washington, who received as high as $1,500 and $2,000 clear profit from a single acre of ground. This
exhibit will consist of real live exhibits that will show you what others have done and the man in charge will be full of in
formation as to the localities awaiting thousands who may have the same opportunities as those who have gone before.
The Omaha Bee and
The Twentieth Century Farmer
wish to convince the people about the wonderful possibilities of the west, and they are backing up the Western Land
Products Exhibit because they realize that an exhibit of this kind will bhow people more of the real truth about this won
derful section than any amount of pure talk; and their real interest In the upbuilding of this empire is due to the fact
that they realize that it is upon the west that Omaha must depend for Its future progress and greatness.
w
proval of a board of aldermen, elected
one each from the different wanl of tho
city, the comm ss oners would have sole
charte of tho affairs of the city. The lull
nlno would provide lor the recall, non
partisan primaries, and a municipal conn
wh.ch would have rrimlnnl and civil Juris
d ct on up to $l.rt". The report of the
committee was presented by W. P. Sears.
(icorge Parks, who opened the discussion,
thought there was no necessity fur keep
Inn the city In continual turmoil. After
W. P. Adklns bad remarked that his own
and the opinions of others as to a com
mission form of government had changed
since the annexst.on project had boon de
feated. L. M. Lord sa d the quextlon
Mioulcl be Riven careful consideration and
that they should decide upon a course
of action that would be beneficial to the
city.
No Fear of Compulsion.
City Attorney Henry Murphy thought
that tho fears of compulsory annexation
wore groundless and xtated that both can
didates for governor were pledped. against
allowing any community being annexed
against the expressed will of Its people.
1 his statement was made In reply to an
observation that a bill such as suggested
would be a club against any move for
annexation. Doth Mayor Trainor and he
argued that the endorsement of a bill fur
a commission form of government would
only be placlns material In th hands of
those who wanted annexation. It would
indicate, they contended, that the people
were dissatisfied with the present condi
tion of things. "Whether you have a com
mission form of government or the pres
ent form of government." declared Al t
Murphy, "Its efficiency must rest with the
people. It will be up to the people In each
case and so far as my office Is concerned
if the people think there Is anything wrong
with the legal department of the city, I'll
resign tomorrow and -,-ive them a chance
of choosing someboii Its. I prefer to
avo my town go lorward rather than

Mayor Trainor questioned th success of
the commission form of government and
said that the people of Iowa were not now
so much enamored of it as they had been
some time aeo. "The statement is made,"
