LION CREATES EXCITEMENT
Fru
m Thursd.iv's Daily
The reported presence of a lion-ess
in the vicinity of Murray and the
evident journey of the animal north-
ward has created more or less stir
anions: the residents cf the district
that lies in the path of the lioness
and strange noises at night bring a
real thrill at the though of the native ,
of the African jungles that may be
stalking around the farm yard. So
far there has been no reports of
depredations by the lady lion and
she seems to be very docil and far
from the lioness of general repute
th?t is lying in wait to spring on
someone and tear them to pieces.
Our lioness is a real lady and as far
as can be learned is confining her
hunting activities to rabbits and
small prey, altho in case of severe
hunger the primitive instinct of the
animal would lead her to attack cat
tie and hogs and possibly human bo - -
ings. Since the animal was seen
west of Murray on Tuesday after- ,
noon there has been no further re-
ports on the beast. .

THE FEOPLE HOLD THE TITLE
From Thursday's i)ily
Under the Federal water power act
private ownership of power sites is
impossible. An application must be
made for water appropriation and the
government can give a lease for no
more than fifty years. Stream water
in Nebraska is reserved, under the
constitution, to the people of the
state, and three distinct uses are per
mitted in the order named: (1) for
domestic purposes, (2i for irriga
tion purposes. (3) for power pur
poses. For the diversion of water
for any commercial purposes within
the state permission must be obtain
ed, under conditions of leasehold.
from the F.oard of Public Works. The
facts are stated in view of the mis
conception of a large number of peo
ple who feel a concern lest large fi
nancial interests confiscate natural
resources.
MISSOURI PACIFIC
RAILROAD TO ERECT
BIG WATER TOWER
Railroad Decides to Aviod Shortage
of Water for Locomotives
in Future.
The Missouri Facific railroad is
planning, well bas-jJ reports reach
this city, to erect along their right
of way in thi3 city, a large water
tower and tank that will have a large
enough capacity to furnish water to
the locomotives on their line when
they reach this point.
The railroad has bern confronted
for some time with the question of
the kind of a water supply ror their
locomotives as the water tank at
LaPlatte has part of the time been
hard to fill owing to the shrinking
of the supply of water in the well.-: in
the dry season and fcr ihis reason the
company is endeavoring to secure a
suitable spot here where a good sup
ply of water can be o brained and cue
that can be depended on at all sea
sons of the year.
The water supply in this section
is abundant and cf a very high
quality that is hard to find in other
plarcs cr I wrrifh-T ell c0.rtc to
the use of locomotive!!, the Missouri
Pacific will take advantage of this to
get their supply secured here for
the trains.
In the past few years a number
of the railroads have had a hard
time finding suitable water supply
and the Burlington in their well at
Lincoln find that the salt water
which seeps from the natural salt
deposits in the valley where Lincoln
is located makes the water very un
desirable for use and thev have spent
a large amount of money in an en
deavor to secure pure water and con
stantly face the possibilities of the
salt stream breaking into their wells
at any time and ruining them.
In and near this city there is
found pome of the best and purest
water in the state and which to a
large factory, plant or railroad means
a great deal.

SCHOOL BOND

whole Wednesday morning, wander

Densmore bill abolishing the right to
float school bonds by petition iu dis
trict?! in cities of 1,000 or more pop

not touched by the Densmore amend

enthusiasm for his own measure.
The members from Gage in this
amendatory bill, propose to rupply
clause making it more difficult to
lioat school bonds. Before the amend
atory portion was reached, however,
clause5? were inserted which may
hamper progress of the bill. Mr.
Deiisinore expects, however, to take
the matter up with the senate.
An amc-ndmeiit by Barbour of
Scottsbluffs abolishes the fifty-one
per cent vote to authorize bond is
sues and provides for a two-thirds
vote. Johnston of Antelope tried to
put over an amendment to the
amendment providing for a sixty
per cent vote to authorize bond is
sues. This was satisfactory to the
introducer but the house, largely
through farmer votes, defeated it 46
to 4f. The Barbour amendment
carried and the bill was advanced
to third reading as amended.

PLANS ARE HERE
From Friday's Daily
The preliminary blue prints of the
floor plans of the new community
auditorium the Legion plans to erect
this year on its Vine street property,
are now in the hands of Legion of
ficials and with a few minor changes
will be approved. The architect, Mr.
Ernest F. Shreiber, of Omaha, is now
engaged in making some pencil drow-
ings of the completed building and
from these a cut will be made to be
used for publicity purposes during
the financing campaign.
The post will soon undertake its
drive with a goal of $10,000 in view,
to be raised through the sale of
blocks in the building, which is one
of the most popular subscription se
curing plans.
The Legion pledges free use of the
building for events of a strictly com
munity nature, and also will bear the
burden of paj-ing out the remaining
cost of the structure, which it seems
will go well over 525.000, and fur
nish the ground, which it has just
recently purchased at a cost of
$2,750.00.
When the campaign is undertaken,
the Journal will publish the list of
all contributors and the amounts of
their donation, as part of the plan
to assist the Legion boys in raising
the required amount to get the con
sturction under way early in the
season. It is not planned to con
duct a long, drawn-out campaign, but
a short, snappy one, in which every
one will have opportunity to share
in amounts ranging from $1 to $500.

It is estimated that the average of

which means that in a very short

MERGER OF AD
CLUB AND CHAM
BER OF commerce;
Movement Suggested to Brin- the
Tvvo Civic Eodies Into One
Organization in Future.
From Thursdays Uallv
There has been a movement among
a large number of the citizens in the
lact few days to have the two main
civic bodies of the city the Cham-
ber of Commerce and the Ad Club
merged into one.
In many ways the two organiza
tions have a duplication of effort in
'ho affairs that concern the city and
particularly the industrial and busi
ness life of the community.
The Ad club was formed purely to
care for the problems of the business! in portions of Cass county and also
men but in this function they find! in Saunders county as showing a
their activities overlap those of the; great deal of improvement, and the
Chamber of Commerce and in many 'really worst piece of road in his
instances create a duplication of ac- travel is that which lies b tween
tion that could be made more sim- Plattsmouth and Murray,
pie under a united head. The Ad .
club with its business men's activi
ties and the credit department has a
field in many ways that differs from
that of the Chamber of Commerce
but which cculd be adjusted so as to
take over the other activities that
have in the past been carried by the
chamber. -
The only difference in the two or
ganizations is that under the pres
ent arrangement of affairs the Cham
ber of Commerce is a more strictly
public organization with a member
ship recruited from everj' line of
trade and life while the Ad club of
necessity is a more closed organiza
tion of the business men.
The question is. just how much
difference the merger would create
in the affairs of the two organiza-
tions and from the general observa-
tion the works along lines of Dublic
movements woum probably receive
a greater aid from the Ad club as
suming the place of the commerce
body owing to their better organized
and more compact body.
