riattsinou.Ui is not the only town
that is having continual public discusion
of the dog and cow question. Tiie Te
cumseh Journal is fireing at the dogs
end sizes them up like this: It nas been
scientifically and satisfactorily demon
strated that a dog with a muzzle, is as
useless as a dog without a muzzle, but
not half so dangerous. Scientific re
search, aided by history has also develop
ed the fact that a dead dog is jit as use
less as a muzzled dog, and is not at all
dan"2rons. Therefore a dead d'g is the
best kind of a dog to have."
A great display was given free of
charge to all who were on Main street
last night from 7 to o'clock. Tae
lire boys were soaking the dirt on the
pavement from the hydrants and after
ward turned the hose to the ground with
full force of water. Ths dirt was
packed in one hard cake r.n.d the water
would plow under it, peal it from the
pavement in great flakes. It was an ex
hibition of hydraulic power and remind
ed old timers of hydraulic mining. It
also demonstrated the magnificent water
power which Plattsmouth has in contin
ual readiness to cope with a fire.
The Y. L. R. R. A. will held a busi
ness meeting on next Tuesday, June 1Mb
. at the home of Miss Marsraret Streight,
corner of Vine anil 4th streets, at which
it is hoped every member will be present.
Mr. II. G. Race, editor of the Weep
ing Water Eagle was in the city today
and while heartily and freely engaged in
conversation with several gentlemen at
M. li. Murphy's store, was presented a
"hog in elegant shape." by Mr. Murphy.
It was a china hog of latest fashion
able design for voting purposes, or at
least was understood as s.nch. A glass
dish for mounting was also furnished
for the hog to be carried upon. Mr.
Race accepted the hog with the heartiness
th it the joke was descrying and promised
that when the court houe was complete
the hog should be present to take part in
the bridal ceremony.

GOING TOO FAIL
Weeuiisar Water Kcnublic-iiii will Htlr
up Bitter Jt'""llnjj for MtrlTe.
Bounds of Reason and Truth Over
Stepped In Anxiety.
The Weeping Water Rfpublli.au has
estimated Plattsmouth's vote at 1,080,
and announced that the bonds were ele
featvil by 450 majority against them.
Following the tabulated vote giving
this majority against, the Republican
proceeds to state:
"When it was given out in Platts
mouth that tlieir vote was 1,00, they
supposeel there, that they were in pos
session of the correct returns from ull
precincts, but they were not. Since then
they have found that they were defeated
and have claimed that their vote was all
the way from 1,800 to 2,800 That sev
eral hundred votes have been placeel in
the box, elown there, since election day
will, no eloubt, be proven, if not proven
it will always be belieyed to b3 true, by
the west end people. Plattsmouth is
making a dying struggle, and when they
saw they were beaten by the honest vo
ters, they had no hesitancy in claiming
votes to the amount of half her popula
tion . Have the taxpayers of thiscounty
not had enough of this rotten work by
the thieving, bulldozing rascals at the
county seat? Four times they have been
cheated out of an honest vote, on re
moval of the county seat. Now the
Republican wishes to ask them if they
are willing to sit with folded arms and
submit to this fifth and most outrageous
insult against justice and good govern
ment? Again, we appenl'lo the farmer,
is it right that his vote should be ele
feated by the vote of a man who pays no
tax, is not a resident of the county, and
who icccivetl a $1.50 lor his his vote?
Gentlemen, the time has come for
action and we are in favor of fighting
this bond election fraud to the bit'er
end"
In the anxiety, caused by the con
sciousness at the time the aboye was
written, on the part of the editor of the
Rt.jiibliran, that the bonds had carried,
the editor stated more than is reasonable
in order to induce the west end to take
up the cry of fraud and resistance.
The Plattsmouth vote was the first to
be turnetl over to the clerk, and long be
fore the vote of Weeping Water was
known, whether it was 400 or 1,200, nil
Plattsmouth's ballots were safe in the
couniy clerk's hands. The Republican
has not even used guessijg equalities in
his statement, and the county canvassing
board after going over the vote failed
to find a case of ballot box stuffing. It
may be hard for a few who are fanati
cally affected on this county question to
consider the matter fairly, but to rant
around about fraud like as the aybove
doesr.nd call up the people to open en
mity is not right. But all the west end are
Hot so Woolen headed it can be pulled
down over their eye', ami have reason
blinded to facts. If there had. been
anything wrong with the ballot the can
vassing board woulil have been more
liable to have discovered it than the
editor of the Republican, who at the
time he wrote the above was in elurk
ncse as to the county's vote.
Carter vs. Cibson.
This case of Carter vs. Gibson, as staged
in last night's Herald, is one tint is at
tracting a great eleal of interest. The
case is not only interesting but involvus a
great amount of land near Weeping
Water, which is very valuable. As
gleaned by the Heuai.d scribe the case
could be briefly stated like this: 3Ir.
John M.Carter ownetl a fine 10) acre
farm south of Weeping Water. Becom
ing quite heavily indebted to Mr. B. A.
Gibson, a mortgage was given on the
farm for the indebtedness. Aftei wards
fifty acres of the farm was laid eff in
town lots, part in Carter's addition to the
city of Weeping Water, part on Walnut
Hill and a few more lote in another ad
dition. From Mr. Carter's side: Mr.
Gibson then proposed that the land all
be turned over to him till he should sell
enough lots to cover the mortgage
about $1G,0u0 and thin the land re
maining should return to Mr. Carter. A
contract to this effect was drawn up and
about 100 of the lots sold.
Mr. Gibson holds that the land all be
longs to him by virtue of sherifi's sale and
deed and the contract should be set
aside as not being a legal instrument,
hence the suit.
All tlay yesterday and this morning
the time of the court wa3 occupird hear
ing the case, followed by cross examina
tions. A great many people of Weeping
Water were familiar enough with some
circumstances of the case to be called as
witnesses, among whom were the follow
ing:
