In the samt letter Vawter asked
Heth to pay a liquor bill for $63 for
him and also told the young man that
his other debts amounted to $2,600.
He admonished Heth not to mistreat
Mrs. Vawter and not to let her know
that Vawter knew she loved him.,
In the first letter introduced. Vaw
ter told Heth he had discovered his
relations j with Mrs. ' Vawter and
warned him to keep away from the
Vawter home. A week later Vawter
wrote urging Heth to forget what had
been said and continue his visits.
One letter said:
"I know what happened Sunday aft
ernoon. 1 was thought to be asleep.
but in reality was never more wide
awake. I came to the door and
found out for myself what I have sus-.
pected for quite a while. Now I ami
going to give vou the surorise of
your life and I only hope you will be
able to appreciate my position. By
a supreme effort I kept myself under
control that afternoon and can keep
it now forever,"
During his testimony Vawter
stated that on one occasion he saw
his wife run out of Heth's ted room in
a night dress, and that when he de
nounced Heth the latter choked him
for his suspicion of Mrs. Vawter.

Boys Want Good Places.
The Omaha Rotary club is co-operating
with the Live Stock exchange in
their efforts to supply the farmers
and stockmen with labor for the sum
mer. Members of the Rotary club
want to send their boys out on the
farms,, hut are anxious to know what
kind of homes the boys arc going to.
They suggest that if fanners writing
to the labor bureau of the Exchange
will state what kind of home life
they can offer the boys there will be
less difficulty in securing more of
them.
These lads, accustomed to conveni
ences not commonly found on most
farms, are willing to forego them if
given clean place to sleep and whole
some food. '
The labor bureau has exhausted the
available supply of experienced hands.
Secretary Stryker said the employ
ment bureau had outgrown its quar
ters and that he would soon have to
put on a man to look after that work
exclusively. Since the bureau started
he has devoted his time to securing
laDor lor tne tanners.

DOMINION ROADS
MAY BE
Royal Commission Urges Uni
fication of All Systems Ex
cept Canadian Pacific,
MERGER IS ONLY SOLUTION
Ottawa. May 3. To avert a far
reaching railway congestion, a plan to
unify all the Canadian railways, ex
cept the Canadian Pacific, into a single
system, under the name of the Domin
ion Railway company, Ij urged in a
report made today by the royal com
mission investigating transportation
conditions.
Avoid Public Ownership.
Protesting against government
ownership, which it fears "would not
conduce to international harmony,"
the commission finds as the only solu
tion of the Canadian railway problem
the merging of the Grand Trunk,
Grand Trunk Pacific and Canadian
Northern and their operation by a
board of trustees, "wl!o would acquire
the stock of the three companies and
maintain the rights qf bond and de
benture holders undisturbed."
The report recommends that the
trustees be prohibited from making
any reduction of rates until their
property earns a reasonable net re
turn. Grand Trunk in Need.
The report finds that the Grand
Trunk needs immediately to expend
$5l,0(IO.U0O to put its own system into
a position to provide adequate service
and that it cannot carry the burden
which it has undertaken in respect to
the Grand Trunk Pacific; that the
Canadian Northern would require
$70,0(10.000 the next five years. The
companies mentioned have an annual
deficit of $12,500,000. -
The report declares that more rail
ways have been built than are war
ranted on commercial grounds. It
points out that the Grand Trunk and
Canadian Northern systems should
have been amalgamated.
