City Finances;
It will be of interest to our citizens
to learn tha,t not for n number of years
hns the financial condition of the city
be en so satisfactory. There is not
only not an unpaid outstanding warrant
against the city, but in the strong box
of the treasury hero reposes about
$30,000, representing balances in the
S"Vcrpl funds. This has been accom
plished with a levy of four mills loss in
1911 than in 1910. It is evident that the
men who are in charge of the city's
affairs the mayor and council as well
as other officials are not lax in busi
ness methods, but rather that they are
conducting the city's business with the
snmc carefulness that, they conduct
their private affairs.
That the city is on n cash basis is of
b?nefit to everyone who has claims for
labor or merchandise; it means that
when the claim is presented, if correct,
is promptly allowed and the claimant
receives a warrant which he is not com
pclled to discount. This is different
than in former yenrs when a cash war
rant was an exception nnd not the rule.
This satisfactory condition of the
treasury follows unusual improvements
in the streets in the way of grading
and crosswalks and culverts; there has
been no robbing of Peter t pay Paul.
Having thus proven themselves ef
ficient as well as painstaking servants,
i3 not Mayor Patterson and the mem
bers of the council entitled to more con
fidence and commendation than we, as
a people, givo them? They are working
for our beat interests not by reason of
the meagre salary they receive but be
cause they arc interested in the welfare
of the town.
The New Garage.
The new nuto gnrage erected on the
corner of Fourth and Locust by A. M.
Lock and leased for a period of years
by the Davis, Auto Co., is now com
pleted and the Davis Co. has taken
formal possession. The building is a
credit.to thj; town' in fact those who
have visited the Omaha garages, say
there is none in that city that is so well
and nicely finished. In dimensions it is
60x126 constructed of hollow tile covered
with stucco. Partitioned off in the rear
end is a repair shop 20x66 supplied with
power drills, lathes and other machinery
and on the northwest corner is an office
and store room 22x40. The remnlnderJ
of the .floor is used for the storage of
autos, there1 being sufficient room for
fifty or sixty cars.
The interior is nicelyfinished; steel
ceiliilg, cement floor throughout, and
the woodwork painted a dark oakt In
the basement Is a. large heating plant,
and the radiators, which aro placed
on the walls, arc bronzed as are
all the eKposed steam pipes.
The system of electric lighting
is very complete, including a large
overhead sign on the southwest corner
of the building. The room is well
lighted and ventilated by windows and
there are entrances on both tho west
front and south side. The system pro
vided for washing cars is very com
plete. Toilet rooms for both men and
women are provided; in fact it woulu"
appear Jd the casual observor that
nothing that would add to tho con
venience of a garage has been omitted.
The building complete cost nearly
eleven thousand dollars. In putting up
such a modern building, Mr. Lock has
done a credit to himself and the town.
Had he less enterprise and pride, he
might have expended five instead of
eleven thousand.
Some Wheat.
C. E. Francis, who lives on the
Samuels ranch south of Sutherland,
completed the harvest of his wheat yes
terday. Mr. Francis cut over five
hundred acres, and judges who examined
the wheat, say it will average better
than twenty-five bushels to the acre, or
a total yield of about thirteen thousand
bushels. In the harvest five binders
were kept running steadily.
The stnte county superintendents
who attended the meeting of the west
ern Nebraska superintendents on Tues
day and Wednesday of this week were
Mesdames Richmond, of Ogalalla,
Starr of Sidney, Belian of Banner,
Thompson, of Morrill and Messrs T. C.
McKce of Garfield, L. A. Olinger of
Dawson, J. S. Elliott of Buffalo, W.
D. Paul of Logan and Miss Clco
Chappell of Lincoln. A conference was
held at the high school auditoriumTucs
day morning and all attended Chautau
qua in the afternoon and evening and
were entertained at supper Tuesday by
Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Tout at the Chau
tauqua grounds. Wednesday morning
they were met nt the high school by
state superintendent J. E. Delzell, of
Lincoln, who addressed them on school
management and methods of advance
ment. A vi3it was made to the experi
mental sub station and several rural
schools on Wednesday.
In honor of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
Pough, who were married recently,
Mrs. Arthur Artz entertained a number
of friends Wednesday evening at a mis
cellaneous shower. The evening was
spent in games. At midnight a dainty
lunch was served.

Plan to Unearth Prairie Dogs.
Henry Tschudy, residingnt Archer,
Nt'br., thinks he has a system for
bnnging.prairio dogs out of their holes
that should bring him a fortune.
While driving his nutomobilo through
the hills recently he saw a prairie dog
disappear. He backed tho car up to tho
hole and put a piece of hos on tho ex
haust pipe. Then he shoved the hose in
the hole and started the engine. Soon
out came three prairie dogs, ono skunk
and a screech owl. Mr. Tschudy says
the poorer the lubricating oil the
quicker the work is done.
