NO. 48
Seek Injunc
tion Against the
Curb Oil Pumps
City of Plattsmouth and Byron Gold
ing Made Defendants in Court
Action Filed Today
From Monday's Da:i
Another chapter in the long dis
cussed proposition of curb gasoline
pumps along: the main traveled
streets of the city, was added today
when an action was filed in the dis
trict court in which Henry Ofe is
the plaintiff and the city of Platts
inouth. Mayor John P. Sattler and
each of the ten couneilmen as well
as Byron Golding are made defen
dants in the action.
The petition of the plaintiff, filed
by his attorney, V. G. Kieck, states
that on July Sth at a meeting of the
city council that body approved a
Ik, rid and contract with the defen
dant. Golding, to permit the construc
tion and installing of two curb
gasoline pumps along the property
of the defendant on Chicago avenue.
The petition attacks the matter
by claiming that the council acted
without lawful authority under sec
tion one of ordinance No. 23 of the
city of Plattsinouth, passed and ap
proved in 19 21. granted the permis
sion to install the two gasoline
pumps. It is further alleged that the
city has accepted an inadequate bond
to cover the liability on the erection
and Installing of the pumps.
The petition further sets forth the
provisions of the ordinance that no
person shall erect a building or ob
struction in the streets of the city
and if so the same shall be deemed
a nuisance. That the mayor and
council had no authority to grant
this permission to erect a pump is
contended in the petition filed by
the plaintiff.
It is further alleged in the peti
tion that the pumps in question are
located on one of the main streets
of the city, a part of Nebraska high
way No. 75. that the pumps and their
location forms a nuisance, is danger
ous and a menace to travel.
The petition asks the permission
for the plucing of the pumps be can
celled and that mandatory Injunc
tion be granted In the matter by the
court and the removal of the pumps
be ordered by the court.
The placing of these pumps has
occasioned some discussion and Mr.
Holding has contended for several
years for the placing of the pump3
and was refused several times despite
the fact that curb pumps have been
placed at other places over the city.
BIG HAIL STORM
Julius A. Pitz. one of the long
time and prominent residents of this
part of Cass county, was in conver
sation with a Journal representative
on Saturday and noticing the day.
July 13th, remarked that he well
recalled that date as it was on July
13. IS S3, that one of the worst hall
storms that exer visited this section
swept down on Cass county and left
in its wake, destruction of practical
ly every kind of crop.
The storm Mr. Pitz states, came
up short before noon and for almost
an hour the bambardment of the
hail continued, the hailstones being
lurne and causing untold damage to
every variety of grain, corn, fruit
and vegetables and riddling the trees
of all leaves. When the storm had
passed on Mr. Pitz states, there was
little left to tell the story of the
once promising crop and that year
the crop was one of the shortest
in the history of this section as the
storm covered practically all of this
county as well as sections of the
adjoining localities.
At that time Mr. Pitz, a young lad.
was residing at the farm south of
this city and where his parents had
a very promising crop before the
storm but afterwards there was lit
tle left to show that there had ever
been even the promise of a crop
there.
This severe storm will undoubt
edly be well recalled by the older
residents here and particularly those
who were farming at the time and
had the misfortune to go through
the storm.

man or men who were reported at
different times as stopping women in
the residential sections of the city,

Engineers to
Prepare Work
for Paving
State Department of Public Works
Has Force Here to Mark Cor
ners of No. 75 Paving
From Tuesday's Dally
The advance guard of the forces
that will be sent in the pave U. S.
highway No. 75 from this city south
to Union and from Omaha to this
city, are getting on the job and the
state department of public works
has a force of engineers here to mark
out the line of the paving, especially
the location of the corners along the
line of the highway and in this work
County Surveyor Fred Patterson is
assisting in getting the locations
made.
The local force will have charge
of the work from this city to the
Otoe county line while a similar force
is being used in handling the road
survey and marketing in that county.
One of the matters of the road
construction program is that survey
is being made of the highway that
runs directly south from this city
and passes east of Union instead of
continuing on through the town of
Union as at present and which is a
straighter and more direct route to
Nebraska City and eliminates many
very bad curves and dangerous
crossings. There has been a great
deal of urging on the location of the
highway along this route rather than
the present one and the survey would
seem as though this route was be
ing considered on the future road
program by the state department.
The active paving work is being
held on the necessity of having the
detours graveled before the highway
is turned over the paving contrac
tors and their force of workmen and
the rainy weather of the past two
weeks has caused more or less de
lay in getting the road in shape and
making several important changes
in the way of culverts and bridges
along the route that will be tempor
ary used as the highway while the
paving is on.
GOES TO OKLAHOMA
The many friends here of William
G. Davis, former executive secretary
of the local Chamber of Commerce.
will be interested in learning that
Mr. Davis, who has for the past two
years served as secretary ot tne
chamber at Greenville, Ohio, is soon
to locate in Oklahoma. Mr. Davis
has been selected as the secretary
of the Chamber of Commerce at
Picheo, Oklahoma, and will take up
his duties on August 1st.
In speaking of the resignation the
Bulletin of the Greenville Chamber
of Commerce has the following ap
preciation of Mr. Davis:
"As our Secretary, William O.
Davis, has been having exclusive
control over the columns of the Bul
letin, In his reticence he has had
nothing to say of his personal suc
cesses and achievements in his work
while among us. President Chas. F.
York and the Treasurer have ar
ranged with the printers to say a
few words this time without the
knowledge of his 'retiring' secretary
ship. "We know full well that in leav- ;
ing us for his new field of labor, our
outgoing secretary is creating a
vacancy that is going to be most dli
ficult in which to follow. Since com
ing to Greenville, Mr. Davis, by his
untiring efforts and ever ready will
ingness to do the best things possible
fou. our community, has surely plac
ed Greenville and Darke County on
the map, and has endeared himself
not only to the membership of the
Chamber of Commerce, but with all
our people with whom he has come in
contact. From the very start, and up
to the last days of his work in our
midst he has given us the best of ad
vice and service all along the line.
Mr. Davis is a real secretary, apd
Greenville has in numerous ways
profited for his having been among
us, and he will leave everlasting
marks of his accomplishments. We
thank him, and our best wishes go
with him and his most estimable
and helpful companion, both of whom
will be missed to the community, and
commend them to the good people
with whom they will cast their lot
in future."
SETTLES FLOOD DATE
In conclusion of the mooted ques
tion of when the flood occurred in
this city that caused the drowning
of several horses in the J. W. Sage
livery barn, the opinion of Attorney
J. M. Leyda as to the date seems to
-be sustained both by Henry Trout
and the latest contribution on this
matter. W. A. Becker, of near My
nard, has in his possession a diary of
his father, the late John H. Becker
and from this an entry practically
settles the date as Mr. Becker has
noted the flood incidents in the fol
lowing. "July 6, 189S High water at
Plattsmouth, James Sage lost all of
his horses in livery stable and mer
chants lost heavy in their cellars."
In those days the cellars were not
regarded as highly as they are in
these latter days.

JOHN BAJECK ILL
From Tuesday's Daily
The many friends over the city of
John Bajeck, well known cigar man
ufacturer, will regret to learn that
he has been quite ill at his home
on high school hill for the past few
days, suffering from an attack of
summer flu and which has made his
condition very serious for some time
as the patient is running a high tem
perature and requires constant at
tention. It is hoped, however, that
in the next few days he may take
a turn for the better and be able to
be on the highway to recovery.
Firemen Will

Fire Boys. However, Will Not Start
Competition With Natnres
Forces in a Water Fight
From Tuesday's Dally
Since the ukase hurled by Secre
tary C. C. Smith of the fire depart
ment at Chief Sandin, regarding a
water fight between members of the

planning me organization or nis;
part of the contest and states that
he believes action are stronger than
words, not however but that the
chief has a large vocabulary at that.
The plans for the water fight to
be held some evening during the
summer preceding the regular Wed
nesday evening band concert, has
been interfered with to some extent ;
by the fact that nature has in the
past two weeks been very busy on
the water fight proposition and has
left little chance for the firemen to
get in on any display of their prow-
ness in the water line or at least in
public.
The water fight, however, will no
doubt be presented this season and
will be a real feature with the hard
ened foremen taking the full force of
the ninety pound -pressure streams of
water "hurled by the two forces on
each other. "Doc" and Claude can
be depended on organizing two real
fighting teams and when they get all
set watch out for a water fight that
will be long discussed as a great bat-
long
tie between the firemen.
