WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our reiruiar correspondent.
Washington, June 21, 1h)1.
Mr McKinley again demonstrated
when he knocked tlie liottom out of
the third-term bucket by declaring
tliat he would not again accept
a nomination that lie is one of
the shrewdest political) of his party.
He knows there are lreakers enough
ahead of the republican party with
out the addition of a third term ele
phant, as he frankly acknowledged
when he .said: "There are now ques
tions of the trra vest importance before
the administration and country, and j
their consideration should not le pre-
. - i . 1 t - 1 l.. !
juuiceu n ine puonc iiimu uy eeu
the suspicionof the thought of a third
term. " Mr McKinley knows there
are several questions of importance
which may wreck all chances of the
republican party to elect the next
President, and wishes to impress that
fact upon the mind of some of his
party who act as though the adminis
tration owned the country and could
do anything they pleased without jeo
pardizing the future sucess of the re
publican party. The immediate ef
fect of Mr. McKinley "s announcement
was a sort of fluttering activity anions;
those who are coaxing the growth of
boomlets for the next republican nom
ination of a number of men, including
Senators Fairbanks, of Ind. : Ilanna
and Fo raker, of Ohio: I'iatt, of Conn.;
Lodge, of Mass. . Gov. Odell. of New
York, and Judge Taft, of Ohio. A
notable thing at" ait the situation is
that there Lsn't the slightest evidence
of a Koosevelt In mm in Washington.
Mr. McKinley has said that he didn't
want another nomination himself, but
lie hasn't said that he doesn't want to
name the man. and he won't say so.
Shrewd observers will ascertain Mc
Kinley's favorite before betting on the
name of the next republican candidate.
Representative Hichardson. the demo
cratic leader in the House, who is in
Washington, said of Mr. McKinley's
anti-third term announcement: It
is what anylHxly could expect No
man is good enough to ! elected Pres
ident three terms. It is a rule that
has never !et broken and never will
k. 1 think Mr. McKinley is too good
a iN'aitician to ever undertake to vio
late that law of precedent.''
V Nothing ni'-re autocratic has oeeur
ed in offi.-ial circles for a long time
than the announcement that the Com
missioner and Assistant Commissioner
of Patents would grant no hearings
during. I uly and August. It is a lit
sequel to lioss Piatt being allowed to
put a political figurehead in charge of
the enormous busin -ss int rests of the
Patent office. That order, if not set
aside by high, r authority, will delay
the business of every inventor who.se
case requires a healing for more than
two months and pile up a class of busi
ness already in arrears, which will le a
future incentive to improper and un
just decisions. It is an outrage, which
should cost tlie Commissioner his place
After thinking the matter over the
Cubans accepted the Piatt amendment
just as it passed Congress.
T. J. McKlroy. of Chicago, who
longs to a family of democrats, thinks
that Mr. McKinley's iiisetting of the
third term loom which had U-en star
ted for him, ought to be decidedly U-ne-ficial
to the democratic party. He
said on tlie subject: Where can you
find another man prominent among
the lead, rs of the republican party j
whose political life is enlvvuieU wun
the trusts which sell their products,
made in America, at a lower price
abroad than they get at home, and
this because the high tariff over pro
tects them. McKinley's declination
to run for the Presidency again cer
tainly makes the race among the lead
ers of his party to suceed him an open
one, and it should encourage the dem
ocrats to come together and develop
their leal strength. "
y, The impression prevails among the
Vlabr leaders, who are already at work
preparing to bring pressure upon Con
gress at its coming session ti reenact
the Chinese exclusion law, which ex
pires next May, that the administra
tion is secretly if not openly, against
reenactment. although they do not
care to talk about it for publication at
this stage of the fight. They hint,
however that if the administration
opposes reenactment there will be
some lively. times in Congress, which
will have an effect on next year's Con
ressional cam paign.

The people at this point are anxious
to know Irjvv much and in what way
they are to be benefitted should cer
tain Murdock citizens succeed in their
efforts to secure the establishment of
the rural free mail delivery system for
the country aliotit that iostotice.
If the delivery system is inaugurat
ed at M unlock we here know that it
means the abolition of this postoitice,
and as to that we hold that we should
have more of a voice than our neigh
Ions ov er at M unlock. There are bus
iness interests at Wabash, small tow n
though it may be. that would lie en
tirely ruined by taking away the post
otbee. and when the petition of Mur
dock for free delivery goes in to the
government there will also be trans
mitted a riot est from the citizens of
this place praying that M unlock be
refused what she asks unless the post
oilice here be allowed to remain.
What we think of the folly of those
a 1 ait M unlock, and especially of those
in the town who favor the free deliv
ery system, is probably material for
anot her story.

INTERRUPTED WEDDING.
Police Judge and Lawyer Wait
for Bride Groom Who
Returned Not.J
The more urgent need for the ser
vices of a surgeon and mid-w ife rathar
than for those of a justice of the peace
put a sudden and rather sensational
stop to ehe intended marriage at this
place Wednesday night of George S.
Gatlett land Frances Oliva Harks or
Hannibal, Mo., aged respectively 32
and 20 years.
Catleot and Miss Harks arrived in
the city late Wednesday night. They
put up at the Plattsmouth hotel, the
lady pleading illness and retiring to
her" room immediately after register
ing. Catlett did not register but went
out in search of the county judge for
the purpose of I procuring a marriage
licence, incipentally looking up the
police judge and asking him to hold
himself in readiness to perform the
ceremony. Hut when Catlett returned
t the hotel he found the hostelry in a
commotion, with the general tenor of
excitement pointing apparently to
ward the room assigned tohis intended
bride. As he opened the door his ears
were assailed ny the shrill cries of an
infant, and he saw lie fore him a physi
cian and several women in attendance
on Miss Harks.
In the meantime the police judge
and the young lawyer who parts his
name in the middle w hom he oad cal
led to act as a witness.waited, more or
less patiently, until in the course of
two hours word was sent them that
the lady was too ill to be married that
night
At last resorts both mother and
child, a baby boy, were doing nicely,
while the marriage ceremony will lie
performed as soon as the condition of
the woman will permit.

Iown at I'ourth and Main streets,
on the tirst fl'ior, over 1'hil Thierolf's.
is the commodious and well appointed
cigar factory of Otto Wurl. where
some of the liest ciirars in this part of
the country are turned out. In the
light, airv, well ventilated rooms, fit
ted with all conveniences and modern
improvements w Inch occupy the en
tire floor, otto A. Wurl has for the
past live years plied the vocation of a
cigar maker and has seen his business
grow and expand from one of modest
proportions to a size in which he can
take a natural and justified pride, a
business at once lucrative and as sol
idly built up as m;iny a large com
mercial enterprise of live times the
age.
In this factory which has come to
le known all over eastern Nebraska
and western Iowa there are turned
out by skilled union workmen, all
classes of goods from the common $25
cigar to the hitrh grade To goods.than
which no U tter smoke for the money
ever tickled the palate of the most ex
acting devotee of the seductive weed.
Otto Wurl carries a running stock
of over .ooo pounds of tine tobacco
leaf valued at over -1nni. The lalels
which he uses are all his own. The
Silver Wreath, which is his leading 10
cent cighar, is hand made, of the I jest
Vuelta Aba jo Havana tolaecos. It is
the only hand made ten cent cigar
manufactured in the city.
The iut Heil and Tride of I'latts
inotith are his leading cent cigars.
They are made of the lest Ohio and
I'ennsylvania tobacco carefully select
ed and cured, and acknowledged by
experts to lie the li nest tobacco grow n.
For a cool sweet smoke these cigars
have found ready favor everywhere
they have lieen introduced.
Otto Wurl is a type of progressive
business man. He is enthusiastic and
indefatigable in building up the ma
terial interests and business condi
tions of I'lattsinouth not only in the
cigar trade but in other lines as well.
He lielieves that Plattsmouth has
great manufacturing advantages and
that with a little hustle and push,
rightly applied, manufacturing and
other industries could be built up here
to an astonishing extent. In short he
is a man w ho being successful deserves
success, for he has won it for himself
through his own unremitting zeal and
hard work.

INFORMATION GIVHN
Ey Deputy Sheriff Mctiride Leads
to Arrest of Oklahoma Ai
leged Offender.
Through theijuick and certain work
of I eputy Sheriff McBride the author
ities of (Jrant county. Oklahoma,
were enabled this week to get their
hands upon Guy Hatelzy, a young man
much wanted to answer the charge
of grand larceny. And th experience
of Hatelzy should be a warning to law
breakers that the fool hardiest thing
they can do is to venture into the
county as long as Mcliride has any
thing to do with the sheriff's office.
When Sheriff Hutts of Oklahoma
sent out the description of Hatelzy
with the information that he was
supposed to be headed in this direct
ion, McIIrideset to work and soon
located his man registered under an
assumed name in an Elmvvood hotel
and cntting a wide swath in that
place as a smooth young man. Hefore
he could be apprehended, however, he
had taken alarm and started back to
ward Oklahoma. Through the med
ium of orticers enroute McHrid kept
tab on the progress of his quarry so
vvlien he again entered Oklanoma the
orticers had no trouble in apprehend
ing him
PARALIZED COMMISSIONERS.
Tlie county commissioners, sitting
as a board of equalization, listening
patiently to kicks on "extortionate"
assessments, were given a shock to
their nervous systems one day this
week from which they have not yet
fully recovered. A Plattsmonth prop
erty owner came in with an expres
sion on his face w hich the board con
strued as meaning trouble for its mem
bers, singly and collectively, and they
forthwith prepared to lock horns with
their visitor in the contention which
they supjxised he had at issue.
"The assessed value of my property"'
Viegan the property owner, and
paused as the commissioners jerked
themselves into tense and rigid atti
tudes of expectancy in their chairs,
"The assed value of my property," he
repeated, "is far too low "
What's that?" shrieked the com
missioners in chorus, rising in their
chairs, only to fall prone upon their
desks as their strange visitor repeated
his statement, and insisted that his
assessment be raised fully lifty per
cent!
In the course of an hour the officials
had recovered sufficiently to comply
with the property owner's request, al
though eying him the w hile suspicious
ly, as though to be prepared for any
new violent indications of temporary
mental aberration, and the visitor was
shown the revised list. The commis
sioners began to breathe w ith a certain
degree of freedom, but were thrown
again into a condition bordering upon
nervous convulsions when their visitor
after looking over the list declared
that it was still Um low, and insisted
on increasing his assessment 33 per
cent more.
On July 4 the Tigers of this city will
meet the Havelock shop ball team in
a game to the finish for ") a side at
Havelock. Both teams are in tine
shape and tha contest bids fair to be
hotly fought.
