The City Ticket.
The democratic city ticket put
forth from the convention last night
3 aa excellent one la every respect
and deserves to carry the citv. It
Is composed of the very best of cltl
rens and it was nominated by a con-
ention which was a true citizens
convention. It is the choice of men
in every walk in life in the city and
the candidates upon it will make the
best of officials.
For mayor John P. Sattler who
has been acting for several months,
is named and it is quite needless to
Introduce him or to state to the peo
ple his many high qualities and
claims for election. He has lived in
Plattsmouth many years, he has held
many important positions of trust
and profit in the city and county
governments and In all he has proven
his worth. As a councilman his rec
ord shows him to have been consci
entious and upright seeking to do
what was best for the citizens and
taxpayers. He is worthy of every
vote In the city.
For city treasurer Carl G. Fricke,
one of the brightest and best of the
younger business men was named.
Carl Fricke has lived so long In this
city and his personal character Is so
blameless that no commendatory
words are needed for him. As to his
business ability It Is only necessary
to call attention to the position he
holds which he has attained by dint
of hard work and toll, and assidu
ous attention to business details. He
will make a fitting successor to City
Treasurer Clements than whom no
better treasurer ever served the peo
ple of Plattsmouth. When Mr.
Fricke takes over the treasurer's of
fice he will be able to say that his
democratic predecessor had set him
fine example. And Carl Fricke
will do as well.
Dr. W. B. Elster, the candidate for
city clerk, is one of the best men to
ever fill that position. During his
two years of public office he has
demonstrated his capacity for hand
ling the details of his work and no
rauit nas been found by the most
critical on his management of the
office. Personally, a gentleman of
high character and worth he Is one
of the most popular of men and he
deserves the large majority which Is
sure to be his.
roiice Judge Archer has served
this city so many years and so well
and faithfully that It were surplusage
to mention his many excellent traits
and his ability. It Is more than prob
able he will receive an unanimous
election this spring as a tribute to the
ability and the high personal worth
with which he has endowed the of
fice of police Judge. His election in
the event of any opponent is a fore
gone conclusion by an overwhelm
ing majority.
me city ticket it can be seen is
well above the average and one which
every good citizen should give his
aid to. It was nominated bv a con
vention of real citizens and no clique
or combination controlled it. So
far as known no one is promised an
office for his support and curios
lty Is keen to know If. all tickets
can say as much.
The Ward Ticket.
In their primaries last night the
dmocrats of the several wards of the
city, showed fine taste and Judgment
in choosing their councilmanlc candl
dates. Every one of them Is worthy
election and doubtless will be chosen
In the first ward two most excel
lent candidates were placed In the
field in the shape of D. O. Dwyer,
present councilman who Is nominated
for the remainder of the unexpired
term which he has been filling. Mr,
Dwyer Is a gentleman of high char
acter and unswerving Integrity
During the few months he has been
in the council, he has demonstrated
that he desires to do what Is best for
the people and It would be a mistake
to fall to elect him. For his colleague
M. Mauzy, one of the best citizens in
the ward was chosen. Mike Mauzy
Is all that Mr. Dwyer Is and deserves
every vote of the ward. His high
character, broad mlndednoss and
discriminating Judgment stamp him
as tho man for the place. In ad
dltlon he served In the council bcv
oral years ago and his record then
shows him to have been an excellent
man for the people and the taxpay
ers.
The voters of the second ward
will make no mistake in the election
of Adam Kurtz to the council. Mr.
hum is an cld-time resideul of the
ward, a citizen of sterling character
and reputation and a man who will
always vote for the Interests of the
taxpayers. His choice is demanded
by every consideration of the public
good.
In the Third ward Councilman J.
W. Bookmeyer Is again a candidate
for election and his record in the
council is the best guide as to his
qualifications. His acts have always
been for the best Interests of the city
and the taxpayers and they will not
be forgotten when the people of his
ward come to vote. His selection
s necessary for an economical ad
ministration.
Councilman Schulhof of the
Fourth ward has made a most excel-
ent record during his term In the
council. He is one of the live, push-
ng energetic members of the coun
cil and has always stood for the best
Interests of the people of this city
and his ward. He deserves election
and will win It.
Fred M. Reasoner who was nomi
nated from the Fifth ward Is a young
energetic and vigorous candidate and
one whose choice will reflect credit
upon the people of his ward. A man
of unimpeachable character and In
tegrity, he will demonstrate his many
superior qualities before he has been
n the council any length of time.
That he will win is conceded even be
fore an opponent Is placed In the
field. He represents progress and
the taxjayers.
The School Ilourd.
There were some who questioned
the wisdom of nominating candidates
for the school board last evening In
the democratic city convention but
they were In the minority and the
party placed in the field two of Its
most excellent men.
Of J. V. Egenberger It is quite uu
necessary to say a word. He ought to
receive and doubtless will receive
the support of every thinking voter
In the city. As a member of the
school board he would be of inesti
malbe value to every parent In the
city. He is a man of high mind and
good thoughts, a sterling and worthy
citizen who ever has the best Inter
ests of the city at heart. A vote for
Val Egenberger Is a vote for the bet
terment of our schools.
L. W. Lorenz, the other candidate,
Is a well known and Justly popular
business man. Ho should be chosen
for the many qualities which ho
brought into his business and which
has made him and his firm so suc
cessful as are needed upon the school
board. As a colleague of J. V. Eg
enberger no better choice could have
been made.
A. W. White Is attending to bus
Iness matters in Omaha this after

SENATE POSHES
BILL
Guaranty Measure Gomes Up
for Final Passage Today.
DEMURRAGE BILL IS PASSED
House Confirms Action of Caucus on
Sifting Committee Proposition.
Omaha and Lincoln Charter Bills Ad
vanced to Head of Calendar.
Lincoln, March 18. The bank guar
anty bill will probably be passed' be
fore tbe day ends and Governor Shal-
lenberger is expected to sign It to
morrow. Despite the strongest kind
of opposition, during which the Re
publicans charged the majority with
gag rule, the latter forced the meas
ure, under suspension of the rules, to
engrossment for third reading, which
will make It possible to dispose of the
bill today. Mr. Bryan himself ap
peared at the capltol during the ses
sion and the Influence of his presence
doubtless assisted in bracing ud anr
lukewarm Democrats In the upper
house.
The banking bill was brought be
fore the committee of the whole sen
ate as quickly as the committee amend
ments came from the printer. The
Meyer amendment, substituting S. F.
290 for the bill, was voted down on
party lines. Then followed amend
ment after amendment, as the bill was
being read. Most of these amend
ments put the administration of the
law into the hands of the state bank
ing board, instead of the governor, but
they went out in fast order. The
amendment of Senator Hatfield of An
telope, making "immediate" payment
a feature of the measure, received no
better treatment.
Finally Senator Raymond of Scotts
Bluff moved' the enacting c1b be
stricken out and the law become ef
fective In 1911, but Senator Patterson
declared it was evident the sentiment
of members was fixed and moved the
committee rise and report, which car
ried, and Senator Ransom moved a
suspension of the rules and engross
ment fur third reading, which was
quickly adopted.
Tbe Republicans claimed they had
been "gagged," but received little
sympathy from the majority. It waa.
evident that the latter was determined
to force final action and they showed
evidence of their organization by car
rying every point.
Sifting Committee.
The sifting committee of the house
took charge- of the general file today.
The motion was renewed to have the
speaker name this committee and
scarcely a ripple of opposition was
shown. The committee is made up
of fifteen members, the Republicans
being given two members.
The sifting committee unceremoni
ously threw out a county option bill
which had' gotten In with another
measure providing for a state inspect
or of beer.
A feature of the day's proceedings
In the house was an appropriation of
$90,000 to pay wolf scalp claims, but
the bounty bill was so amended as to
prevent future slllmar claims, by re
pealing the wolf bounty lay.
Tbe Case and Brown bills providing
for a state annuity fund for retired
university professors were placed on
the general file.
The Banning demurrage bill waa
passed by the house.
The Omaha and Lincoln charter bills
were advanced to the bead of the cal
endar and will receive early consider
ation. Wealthy Farmer Drops Dead.
