Farm Holiday
Organization is
Reaching Out
Branch at Mynard to Initiate Group
in Center Precinct Tonight
Much Interest Shown.
From Thursday Dally
The Farmer's Holiday movement, a
child of the four years of depressed
conditions under which the farmers
of the west have labored, is spread
ing fast in this section of Nebraska
and the keenest interest shown in
the plans of the various groups.
This was evidenced by the largely
attended meeting at the Mynard
community building last evening and
which was attended by farmers from
all seitions of east and central Cass
county.
Tha Holiday association offers no
general program, the local groups
form their own particular plan of
action to suit the locality and the
i-mergency of the cases as they arise.
The meeting last evening at My
nard was addressed by Rev. H. A.
McKelvey, the pastor of the Mynard
church, who is an enthusiastic work
er in the battle for securing equal
rights for the farmers and laborers
of the country. The address of Mr.
McKelvey was one of inspiration to
tho members of the group. The state
officers who had planned to attend
the meeting were unable to be here
owing to an interstate meeting at
Des Moines, with Milo Reno, nation
al president.
At the meeting last evening the
permanent officers of the association
were named, they being:
Chairman Charles Stretten.
Vice-Chairman Rpy O. Cole.
Secretary-Treasurer Royal Smith.
The Mynard unit has been asked
to assist in the organization of a
group in Center precinct and this
evening W. F. Nolte and Mr. Stret
ten are to meet at the Philpot school
house and perfect an organization.
In Center precinct the taxpayers
league there is being transferred in
to the holiday movement to give a
broader scope to the work of the
organization in that part of the
county.
In addition to the general farm
crisis confronting the country, the
Mynard unit discussed many df the
tax problems and methods by which
they might be lightened. Attorney
A. L.. Tidd, of this city, who is also
interested in tax reduction organ
izations, was present and gave a
most interesting talk to the mem
bers of the unit.
There have been many requests for
the local unit to assist In forming
holiday branches at Union and Louis
ville and which will probably be
taken up in the near future.

FISHERMEN SUFFER LOSS
The owners of fishing nets, lines
and other equipment, who have
shacks located along the Missouri
river, have been suffering the loss of
a great deal of their property in the
last week.
The Grebe brothers, who have
fished on the river for years and
have a great deal of equipment that
they use in the fishing activities,
were the victims of the visit of the
thieves a few days ago. They had
been in the habit of leaving the mo
tor to their boat as well as seins In
the shack, but one night decided that
it would be best to take them home.
Their "hunch" was correct for the
next morning when visiting the
shack it was found that the lock had
been forced and several pair of oar
locks as well as a fish dressing hook
had been taken.
John Richardson also was a suf
ferer from the visitation of thieves
who Wednesday night proceeded to
make away with a large part of his
fishing equipment.
There are a large number engaged
in fishing this winter and the own
ers of seins and other fishang equip
ment are keeping a close watch that
they do not lose these articles so
necessary to securing a livelihood.
Williac C. Elmelund, legislator in
1913 and 1915, retired farmer and
banker, and life long .resident pf
Nebraska, died Thursday at his home
in Valparaiso at the age of 61. Born
on a farm near Wahoo, he lived
many years there and at Valparaiso,
and twelve years in Lincoln, return
ing to Valparaiso last September. He
was a democrat and represented
Saunders county in the house of rep
resentatives.
Mr. Elmelund was for some time
interested in the banking business at
Greenwood, while still a resident of
Lincoln, and is well known in the
western portion of Cass county.
Surviving Mr. Elmelund are his
wife, Eva; three- sons, Nelson W. of
Los Angles, and Wilbur E. and
Wayne C at home; two daughters
Mrs. Lucile Melehior of Valparaiso
and Miss Edith at home; and two bro
thers and a sister. Ed, Arthur and
Miss Hulda, on the paternal farm
near Wahoo.
SHOWS SOME IMPROVEMENT
The many friends here of Mrs.
W. S. McGrew, of Louisville, presi
dent of the Cas3 County Woman's
club federation, will be pleased to
learn that she is improving. Mrs.
McGrew was taken from her home at
Louisville some two weeks ago to
Omaha, where she was operated on
at the Methodist hospital. Follow
ing the operation the patient de
veloped a case of "hospital mumps,"
of a swelling of the glands of the
glands of the throat and which made
it difficult for the patient to breathe
and as a result it was necessary to
operate a second time and place a
tube in the throat for breathing.
For several days the condition of the
patient was critical, but she is now
eome better and the swelling re
ceding so that it is hoped she may
soon be on the highway to recovery.
TAX PROPERTY BILL
The state house of representatives
Wednesday took up the consideration
of a measure which is of interest in
Plattsmouth and other cities of the
state. This is house roll No. 121 by
Ratcliffe of Hitchcock and Wells of
Jefferson. It is providing for sale
upon affirmative vote of three-
fourths of a city council or village
board, of property acquired thru fore
closures on taxes or other liens and
permits this to be done by ordinance.
As explained by its introducers and
others it is designed to relieve the
tax burden by putting more property
back on the tax list.

PLATTSMOUTH
From Saturday's Dally
The office of Sheriff Homer Sylves
ter has been busy the past few days
tracing down all possible leads that
might reveal the identity of the three
young men who attempted the rob
bery of the McCulloch farm home last
Wednesday morning.
The investigation of the sheriff has
revealed that on January 8th, Ed Mc
Culloch, who resides with his mother
and sister at the farm, had been stuck
up by a man who visited the farm,
but that on that occasion as was the
case at the last visit, there had been
nothing secured.
At the time of the previous hold
up, Mr. McCulloch was home in the
evening when a stranger appeared
and stated that his car was stuck near
the farm and he wished the aid of a
car or team to help pull the car. Mr.
McCulloch offered to go and see if he
could help push the car until it start
ed, the man saying that his wife and
child were in the car. As the two
men came out of the front yard and
had progressed down the road a short
distance, another man joined the par
ty and Mr. McCulloch was requested
to turn over $5 or what money he
had. Not having any money with him
he was berated and threatened by the
men with being "taken for a ride."
The men had a gun with a bayonet
on it, McCulloch stated to the officers.
After argument and convinced that
the farmer had no money with him,
the party of men drove away.
The night of the stickup was bright
moonlight and the men in the party
resembled very strongly the descrip
tion of the trio of masked bandits
who were at the farm last Wednes
day. Mr. McCulloch did not report the
incident for fear of alarming the oth
er members of the family.
The fact that the farm is located
off the main arteries of travel Indi
cates that the persons who came to
the farm made the trip with this par
ticular farm as their objective and
had not merely selected the place at
random to stage their stick-up. .
HOLD OFF ON LICENSES
County Treasurer John E. Turner
has been advised by the motor ve
hicle division of the department of
public works, that while they have
not issued any order for the dis
continuance of the issue of auto li
cense plates, pending a new bill,
that there is a change contemplated.
Leaders in the state legislature, be
longing to the house roads commit
tee, have advised Nebraska car own
ers not to purchase their plates at
this time. The legislature has a bill
before them which if is expected will
pass, providing for the cutting in
two of the license fees for the com
ing year. Those who have already
paid the license fees will have to be
rebated the sum in excess of any new
fees, which will bring an expense to
the counties. In order to escape the
rebating it is asked that the car
owners refrain for the present from
securing the plates. Pending the
passing of the emergency legislation
the officers will permit the use of
the old plates.
