ever. We certainly welcome every pro

does not mean that all old-time reme

was put to a test as to how much it
could be made to do. The people who
were working, most of whom wished
to go to the funeral of Henry Spangler
crowded the machine as fast as they
could. They began at 7:45 a. m. and at
the time when they stopped at 10:05,
just two hours and twenty minutes, had
threshed twenty acres, making 510 bush
els of oats. This is making a good show
ing when it is taken into consideration
that they had hail in that community.

THE APPROACHING
PRIMARY ELECTION
Those Who Have Filed as Can
didates for Office.
Saturday was the last day for filing
candidates for the primaries Saturday,
September 3, and from present indica
tions indications it will not be a very
exciting election day.
When the hour for filing closed at
midnight Saturday, there was no candi
date for county judge on the demo
cratic side of the house and neither
were there for surveyor. The candi
dates whose names will appear upon the
ballots used at the primary are as fol
lows :
For Treasurer Frank E. Schlater,
democrat; W. T. Adams, republican.
Sheriff A.J. Box, democrat; Carl I).
Quinton, republican.
County Clerk W. E. Rosencrans,
democrat; F. A. Bricka, republican.
Clerk of the District Court-Chris. E.
Metzger, democrat; James M. Robert
son and C. II. Taylor, republicans.
County Judge Wm. Delles Dernier,
A. J. Beeson, A. L. Tidd and J. E.
Douglass, republicans.
Assessor II. M. Soennichsen, demo
crat; II. F. Kroop, republican.

Surveyor E. E. Hilton, republican.
Coroner E. Ratnour, democrat; J. E.

The democratic candidates are well
known throughout Cass county especi
ally Frank E. Schlater, candidate for
treasurer, and W. E. Rosencrans, can
didate for county clerk. Melchoir Soen
nichsen, candidate for assessor, and C.
E. Metzger, for clerk of the district
court, are also pretty well known. Mr.
Schlater is the present officient deputy
in the treasuser's office; Mr. Rosen
crans is the present county clerk, and
no one in the county has cause to doubt
his efficienee. Mr. Soennichsen is one
of the most officient men in the county
for the position to which he aspires, and
is one of the best men in the world from
a social standpoint. Cristie Metzger,
for clerk of the district court, belongs
to one of the pioneer families of Cass
count', and no one is better able to look
after the affairs in that office than he is,
no matter how long they have served
the "dear people. " A. J. Box, for sher
iff, and Chas. R. Jordan, for commis
sioner, are two as good men as reside in
the county. Mr. Jordan is a prosperous
retired farmer, and has made every dol
lar he possesses by hard work, and is
just the kind of a men the farmers of
the Third district need to look after their
interests. Where will you find an ar
ray of candidates that can come up to
their standard for manhood, honesty and
efficiency?
Miss Mary E. Foster, our candidate
for county superintendent of schools, is
a lady in every sense of the term, and
being a graduate of the state university,
her qualifications remain unquestioned.
She is an experienced teacher anil be
longs to one of the best families in Cass
county. There are numerous lady
county superintendents in Nebraska,
and everyone of them are performing
the duties of their respective afficers to
the entire satisfaction of all who are in
terested in the public schools of their
various counties.

THE LAST SAD RITES
TO A GOOD MAN
Funeral of Henry Spangler
Yesterday Afternoon.
The funeral of the late Henry Spang
ler was held from Liberty church, just
south of the city yesterday, at 2:30 in
the afternoon, Rev. Brink, pastor of
tee United Brethern church at that
place, of which the deceased was a mem
ber, delivered the address. As illustra
tive of the peaceful life he had lived
and of the many kindly acts which has
characterized the life that made him a
man among a thousand, was peacefully
laid away in the quiet churchyard,
where he shall sleep until the trumpet
of the awakening angel shall call the
ones asleep in the arms of the Savior.
His beloved wife and the nine remain
ing children paid the last sad rites,
which their love could bestow, and in
eloquent words, Rev. Brink told of deeds
of, which had been very conspicuous in
the life of this noble man.
While he has made ample provision for
the welfare of his beloved wife and
children, he could leave no greater
legacy, than the example of a life free
from the taint of evil and filled with
that loveliness of character which is in
line of the teachings of the Master
while here on earth.
Charged With Gambling
Fred Clark and Samuel Young of Un
ion came up on being served with a war
rant charging them with gambling, and
gave bonds for their appearance at the
first day of the next term of the district
court, on the sum of $100.00 each. The
case against Clayton Klaus was dismiss
ed. The fourth of the batch which
were to be apprehended has not yet been
found.
THE DEATH
ANGEL GALLS
And the Mother of Rev. J. H.
Salsbury, Answers
The Summons
This morning Mr. Jacob Downing,
the father of Mrs. Rev. Salsbury, re
ceived a message that Rev. Salsbury 's
mother had passed away yesterday af
ternoon, and that the funeral and inter
ment will be held at Breckenrige, Mo.,
tomorrow. Mrs. Salsbury, the mother
of Rev. Salsbury, has made her home
in Caldwell county, Missouri, for the
last thirty-five or forty years and as
well known by everybody living in that
neighborhood. There was no one more
highly respected or dearly loved by all
who knew her, than was this good wom
an. As in all cases where the commun
ity give homage to a person it was in
this case, because the character mer
ited the recognition. While Rev. Sals
bury was at Palmer Lake taking his va
cation, he was called to his mothers'
home by a telegram announcing her
severe illness, and immediately hasten
ed to her bedside, his wife coming home
to Plattsmouth. A short time after,
Mrs. Salsbury joined her husband at
Breckenridge in his care of his mother.
But a short time afterwards, it was
deemed imperative by the attending
physicians that she be taken to a hos
pital for treatment. Accordingly about
three weeks ago she was taken to St.
L'uke's hospital, at Kansas City, where
she was operated upon for gall stones,
and the operation showed the gall cyst
ruptured and two ulcers on the liver.
Since then varying conditions have been
hoped at times and as other conditions
occured, taking that hope away, until
at last it was but merely a matter of
time when the death angel would come
and summon this noble woman to home
in heaven.

MARRIED FIFTY YEARS
Former Nebraska Couple Cele
brate the Anniversary at
Lead S, D,
A special from Lead, S. D., gives the
following acconnt of the celebrating of
the fiftieth wedding anniversary of a
couple well known to many of the
pioneer residents of Plattsmouth: "Just
fifty years ago Harry P. Cooldge led
Miss Theda M. Wheeler, a blushing
bride, to the altar. Today they cele
brated the golden anniversary of that
happy event. The customary family re
union was held, but a peculiar feature
of this is the fact that exactly the same
members of the family neither additions
ordecrea.se, were able to sign today
their names in the family album, just
as they had done twenty-five years ago
at the silver wedding anniversary at
Columbus, Neb. There are five sons
and fifteen grandchildren and all we re
present, but only the grown folks at
tached their names to the Album. Not
one death has occurred in the family in
thirty years, and Mr. Coolidge's mother
is still living in Iowa at the ripe age of
ninty-two.
"The Coolidges were married in L-77
at Glenwood, Iowa, and only came to
the Hills a few years ago. Mr. Coolidge
is seventy-two years old and is wife is
six years younger. One son, Joseph W.
Coolidge, resides in Omaha and another
brother, William E. Coolidge, in Rosalie,
Neb., where the rest live here."
