iracles in Money
A city skyscraper seems a miracle in
steel and stone. But it is only a vast
number of girders painstakingly placed
together a vast quantity of bricks
placed end to end and one above another.
Miracles in money are seeming miracles
only. Yon can work miracles in your
own life.
Saving Wins Success
You can have a big prosperous farm,
own a car, or travel wherever you wish.
Men who have really suc

who was given dictatorial powers
last week by the all-India national
'congress, has been modified to permit
violence "for self-defense." accord
ing to a cablegram received today
by H. X. Ghose. director of the
American commission. As a further
measure of obstruction against the
British government the message said
the boycott has been extended to in
dividuals. The message to the American com
mission as given out, said: "Ilepub

cided. Armed defense sanctioned.
Boycott extended to individuals. Wo
men and children safe."
The "American message" referred
to was said to be that of Sena
tors Norris of Nebraska and Walsh
of Massachusetts and other promin
ent publicists and jurors pledging
American support to the Indian
"campaign for independence."
"Proclamation of the republic of
the United State3 of India is due to
the pledge sent to the nationalists
of India by a group jf liberty-loving
Americans," Mr. Ghose said in a
statement.
"It i;i permissible to announce
now, that in preparation for the de

ernment has been formed with Ghan
di at its head, which means that as
long as the Britain remains there
will be a state within a state."

Last Friday evening while J. V.

from a tank in his garage at the
home south of town, having taken a
lantern along for light the fumes
from the running gasoline became
ignited from the lantern and Mr.
i Pitman, who was in the act of draw
j ing the gas, was quite severely burn
ed. He managed to escape from the
building which became a mass of
flames in an instant. The building
was soon consumed and the flames
liable to go to other buildings when
the fire was discovered by a neigh
bor and the people from the town
hastened to the Pitman home and
rendered what assistance they could
in putting out the fire and keeping
the home and other building from
burning down. Mr. Pitman was able
to save the auto but only at the cost
of some very severe burns. He is get

look for and will soon be well again.

annual meeting of the stockholders
of the Farmers' Elevator company

a large crowd at the meeting. The
meeting looked after the election of
the officers for the ensuing year,
who are: C. D. Spaugler, president;
J. B. Seybold, vice president; W. II.
Puis, secretary, and Fred Lutz, treas
urer, with G. M. Mlnford, H. C.
Creamer and Charles Herron as the
remaining board of directors. The
business of the elevator has been
very prosperous under the manage
ment of the late manager, T. S. Bar
rows. A dividend of seven per cent
was declared and paid; Following
the meeting the stockholders, there
was held a meeting of the board of
directors, who organized and select

and it looks as though they could
not have made a better choice, he
being a real business man.

Governor McKelvie met Friday
with the Douglas county legislators
while he was in Omaha. He said each
member had a subject he desired con
sidered at the special session. They
were unanimous in saying that the
subjects for consideration should be
corfined to those mentioned in the
governor's letter to legislators, it be
ing their desire that the session
should be short. Among members of!
the legislature who met with the
governor and the Douglas delegation
were .Walter L. Anderson, of Lincoln, '
speaker of the house; Senator Hoag
land of North Platte, Representative
James Rodman of Kimball, and Rep
resentative James Staats of Fremont.'
Governor McKelvie's plan of rais
ing state funds to match federal aid
for construction of new roads con
templates a reduction in the state
general fund tax, 11 per cent of
which is now appropriated for new
roads. His plan does not disturb the
automobile license tax which is now
UEtd by the state to maintain roads
constructed by state and federal aid.

WEATHER IS FREAKISH
Prom Wednesday's Dally.
The weather man has been in a
decided tempermental mood the last
few days and the weather certainly
has been about as freakish as can
be recalled by the oldest inhabitants
of these parts. For several weeks
we have had weather that rivaled
and in many respects was superior
to the brand so well advertiseed by
the Californians, and they modestly,
admit that heaven has little on Los
Angeles, save better music and pav-'
ing. Yesterday the weather man was '
evidently recovering from New Years
tprinkled a rain as gentle and mild
as that of spring over this section
of the state and it continued until
late at night when the cold wave
struck and in a few minutes the
rain had turned to a light snow and
the wet walks and streets into coat-1
ings of ice that made travel a nuis
ance to say the least.
ACTING POLICE MAGISTRATE
Mayor C. A. Johnson has filed his
appointment of Judge Allen J. Bee
ton as acting police magistrate of
the city of Plattsmouth during the
illness of Judge M. Archer, who is
ttill confined to his home, and the
genial county Judge will dispense his
celebrated brand of justice to the
city prisoners as he has in the past
lo the county offenders.
