The Evening Times says editorially
of the bonus:
"Just a simple general sales tax ol
one and one-half per rent on a limit
ed number of commodities will raise
the fltHI.IHKI.lMHl, w hich soldiers' bonus

Under a misapprehension, certain

"It is collected once from the maii-,.r-..-i..r.r

"The tax is so small that m some

that the results cannot be estimated.
"The third influence I referred to
is a restoration of confidence among
the people of Nebraska, as well as
throughout the country, on account
of the work of the limitation of
arms conference. N'cbraskans have
confidence that President Harding
and Secretary Hughes have so ad
justed matters that the safety and
security of the young men against
being called to war service has been
reduced to a minimum and that the
pursuits of peace, rather than the
pursuits of destruction, will be the
order of things.
"I cannot omit reference to the
beneficial results of the farm confer
ence called by President Harding.
The attendants of this conference
were brought to a keener apprecia
tion of the interdependence of all
industries in their relations to the
general welfare of the entire coun

country has a president who is able
and willing to adjust the affairs of

newspapers throughout the country.
After the Dalton robbery some
newspapers quoted Dalton as saying
that lie had committed his robbery
because he felt, through Judtfc Lan
dis remarks, that nothing would be
dene to htm. IaIton never said this
and later in a signed statement said
that he had never before heard of
Judge I.audis remarks. The story
had spread, however, and the judge
was severely condemned as having
made statements which were de
clared to have influenced Dalton.
Head of Organ:zed Baseball.
The judge became brad of organ
ized baseball shortly after the grand
jury investigation into the 1919 world
series scandal. He was offered $50,
000 a year to take the position and
after several refusals, finally agreed
under condition that he remain on
the bench, too. He insisted that his
salary be only $42,500, explaining
that his judicial income would bring
the total to $.i0,U00.
Although 58 years old, Judge Lan
dis has always been known as a boy
at heart and a lover of all forms of
sport. The baseball magnates urged
him to reorganize baseball "lor the
sake of the American boy," and it
was this plea which finally won over
the jurist.
Unusual Conduct in Court
The resignation of Judge Landis
takes from the federal bench one of
the most feared and at the same time
the most respected judges in the
country. His unusual conduct in
court, where he frequently took cases
out of attorneys' hands and exam
ined witnesses himsclt caused him
to be feared by all lawbreakers, at
the same time his reputation for ad
ministering justice, regardless ol
technicalities which sometimes ob
scured pertinent facts, brought him
universal respect.
lie was vigorous in his attitude
against anti-Americans during the
war. His son. Keed Landis, was
serving with the British air service,
and the judge several times tried to
obtain war work which would send
him across, but failed. In every war
case brought before him where the
defendant was found guilty the judge
imposed heavy sentences.
His strong rancor against un-
American ism was plainly demon
strated in the trials of I. W. W.'s,
socialists and pacifists brought be
fore him.
In one speech during the war he
advocated that the German kaiser
and his six sons be executed by al
lied firing squads out of justice to
humanity."
udee Landis was one ot the M
persons to whom bombs were mailed
on May day, 1919, and during the
1911 blackhand trials here he re
ceived many death threats. Against
the wishes of his iriends, he insisted
on sitting through the trials.
Fined Standard Oil.
Judge Landis first became a na
tional figure when he fined the
Standard Oil company of Indiana
$29,240,000, which decision later was
reversed by a higher court.
In the court room th judge always
was a oicturesque ngurc, not ouiy
because of his flowing white hair but
because of his keen wit. rie once
barred "wrist-watched" lawyers and
was drastic in his action against the
court room loafers or "court room
lizards," as he called them.
Tudee Landis said he had mailed
his resignation today, addressing it
to President Harding personally.
Upon, hearing of Judge Landis
resignation, l-ederal Judge Ueorge
A. Carpenter said:
' It is a matter of great regret to

"The government has lost one of
its most valuable servants, said
Charles Clyne, United States district
attorney. There is no man with a

Special Session Laws
Oshkosh. Xeb., Feb. 18. (Spe
cial.) The county commissioners
are indulging in a little figuring on
account of the action of the last leg
islature, wherein appropriations
were cut off for building at least two
state aid bridges this summer. The
bonds for the county's portion were
sold some time ago and acting upon
the approval of the state department
the commissioners had been making
plans to complete this work as
early as possible, aow the county
has funds, but gets no assistance
from the state.
Another act that has caused some
concern was the lopping off of over
80 sections of Garden county lands
and delivering them to the 'county of
Arthur, with no Strings attached, or
without asking of Garden county
"by your leave."
Fremont Woman
Gets $1 Alimony
Ahuse on Hollywood Style Al
leged by Wife Husband
Denies Croclty.
Fremont, Neb.. Feb. 18. (Special
Telegram.) Mrs. Ella Hassc, wife
of Hugo IIasse prominent Fremont
real csiate man, was awaraeu a oi
vorce decree here in which her hus
band must pay her attorney's fee of
$150 and a stipulation of $1 as a
marriage settlement. Kolh are well
known in this vicinity and the case
has attracted considerable attcntiotn.
The couple lived together less than
a year when they found discontent
had sprung up, resulting in the hus
band's alleged threat to leave their
home and his refusal to provide for
her maintenance.
Mr. and Mrs. Ilasse were married
n Omaha on January 4. 1921. In the
fall of the same year Mrs. Hasse
complains that while at the home
of her mother, she was viciously as
saulted and beaten ur bv her hus
band. She charges that Ilasse beat
ler with fists and scratched her
face.
The wife says that she was again
attacked by her spouse at their home
on December 24. He choked her,
says the wife, and apparently in
regular movie-like fashion, he threw
her over a couch. In addition Mrs.
Hassc complains that her husband
called her vile and indecent names.
This alleged fracas was the cli
max, according to the petition for
divorce, in which Mrs. Ilasse states
that her husband deserted her on
this same day, saying that he would
no longer provide for her.
Hasse's earning capacity amounts
to about five or six thousand dollars
a year, according to his wife. She
also claims that he owns property
valued at $10,000.
The husband's answer to the pe
tition for divorce denied every alle
gation, including his alleged cruelty
and his income.

Counties Unable
to Find Cost of
Building Road;
Incomplete Records Will Hin
der Probe Ordered by
Legislature Only Two
Reports Received.
Lincoln, Feb. 18.-(Spccial.)-Xe-braska
taxpayers may never be able
to get a detailed statement as to
where ?20,OO0.il(ii) spent in bitilclin
county roads and bridges since 1917
has gone.
Officials in charge of the investi
gation committee appointed by the
last legislature admit that few county
clerks have in anyway complied with
the law passed in 191 7 demanding
itemized accounts of funds used on
various roads and bridges built in
their counties under supervision of
county commissioners.
Information of this description, to
gether with iiainrs of contractors and
sub-contractors doing the work since
1917, was demanded three weeks ago
by Attorney General Clarence A.
Davis, in preparation for the big road
probe to open February 28.
Two Counties Report
So far. according to authentic re
ports emanating from state officials,
only two counties have furnished
clear and concise information on
county road building in compliant
with the law. Those are Lancaster
and Douglas counties.
Few of the county clerks have
answered tU- attorney general's ques
tionnaire. From Box Butte county's
highway commissioner a confession
has been received that exceptinir for
the year 1921 no official records of
road projects and the money spent
on them have been kept.
This is taken to mean that at the
start the investigation committee will
be hampered in gaining authentic in
formation on the relative cost of
construction of state and county
roads.
State Costs Ready.
Under the supervision of George
Johnson, state engineer, books have
been kept on- every road project un
der state and federal aid, a list of
contractors and subcontractors is at
the committee's disposal the minute
the investigation begins, and, if de
sired, Johnson can show almost to
the yard how much every state and
federal road project has cost.
Johnson's books were prepared at
the same time the law was passed
in 1917, demanding that both state
and county officials keep a detailed
record of road building. The same
books were sent to county clerks for
maintaining such records as were
used by tlie state.
Accountants Are Needed.
The only road open to taxpayers
in counties desiring information as to
where their county road and bridge
money has been spent is to employ
expert accountants and engineers to
pore through the loose leaf proceed
ings of commissioners' reports and
reports of county engineers.
This was done in Richardson
county last summer by George
Johnson, state engineer, when that
county became involved in a road
building scandal and demanded an
investigation.
Johnson stated that he found that
the law asking for a uniform system
of bookkeeping had been ignored
and it took three months of the time
of an engineer and bookkeeper to
discover where the funds had gone.
This work cost $600. '
Old State House Stone
May Be Used at Penitentiary
Lincoln, Feb. 18. (Special.)
Stone from the old state ho-use may
be hauled to the state penitentiary
by convicts and used in making the
enclosed area twice as large and in
building new buildings inside the
area.
Warden W. T. Fenton and the
state board of control are working
on such a plan. The rapidly increas
ing population of the penitentiary,
with the consequent necessity of
more prison activities, will, in a
short time, make enlargement of the
enclosed wall area necessary.

The Secret of
Renewed Vigor
World War Conditions Brought Out
New Remedy Mora Available
Than Gland Treatments
The effects of prematura asro, physical
weakness, and the persistent deficiency of
vital power in men and women in Europe
during1 the world war, forced leading medi
eal authorities to the need ot devising a
successful corrective treatment. The pri
vations of war, in the field and at home,
including the "Flu," left millions in a de
plorable condition. Effective treatment
was developed with remarkable results in
renewing vigor and vitality in men and
women.
The secret of renewed vigor the vigor
of youth is. in the treatment, in this
country called Korex Compound. This
remarkable restorative enmps in tablets
and is more available than the much dis
cussed Gland treatments.
If you lack vital power: if you lak
the strength and vitality that you ought
to have, try Korex without risk for its
cost. It contains no habit forming or
harmful drugs. Its action is upon the
central nervous system, and improved con
dition is usually known in a few days.

To Bee Contestants
YOU who have worked in The Bee Contest
realize the value of a reference work. v You
appreciate that the prize winners would have
had no chance for success without access to an
Encyclopedia.
The value of an Encyclopedia in business practice and
for home and school use is also recognized. The Ency
clopedia contains the essentials of a college curriculum
and indeed all of the learning of the ages brought
down to the present time.
The greatest of modern reference works is the Ency
clopedia AMERICANA, copyright 1922, and contain
ing material as late as October, 1921.
Uncle Sam has placed 100 sets on his battleships. It
has been adopted by the state of New York as the stand
ard Encyclopedia for public institutions of that state.
The AMERICANA is used by practically all colleges
in the nation, and recently it has been added to the tech
nical library of the League of Nations at Geneva. Be
sides being the latest, best and most carefully edited of
all Encyclopedias, the AMERICANA is the cheapest;
the price per volume is less than that of the other three
large Encyclopedias.
If you desire fuller infor
mation on America's great
est reference work, which
is sold on the easy payment
plan, mail in the enclosed
coupon.
