Prairieland Talk—
1902 Issue Tells of North Western’s
Dream of Extending to West Coast
By ROMAINE SAUNDERS
LINCOLN — The Frontier of'
November 20, 1902, records the
marriage of George Shoemaker
and Miss Nellie Joyce, both of
pioneer Holt county families . . .
M. P. Kinkaid, who had been
elected to crongress from the
Sixth district, planned to con
tinue his law
practice in O’
Neill for near
ly a year until
taking up leg
islative duties
in Washington.
. . . Governor
elect Mickey
was on the
train with The
Frontier editor,
his excellency
being enroute
Romaine to Keya Paha
Saunders county, where
he had ranching interests. , .
The November elections that
year recorded seven ties in con
tests for township offices. Coun
ty Clerk Gilmour and County
Attorney A. F. Mullen cast lots,
Mullen representing the Popu
lists and Gilmour the Republi
cans. He drew two and Mullen
five. . . J. L. Mack, a Union sol
dier, made application in 1891 for
an increase of pension from $4
per month to $10. In 1898, the
war department was notified of
Mr. Mack’s death, and on No
vember 10, 1902, J. J. King was
notified that the increase had
been allowed. . . The issue of No
vember 27 of The Frontier tells
of the marriage of Harvey Stock
ing and Kittie Bright, two popu
lar young people of O’Neill. . .
The paper of that date devoted a
long story to a dream of the
North Western railroad extend
ing their line to the Pacific
coast. . . In January, 1903, Judge
J. J. Harrington and Reporter
John Maher went to Chadron to
hold court, 31 indictments having
been returned by a grand jury
against Dawes county saloon
men involved in gambling. . . O.
F. Biglin, clerk of the Modern
Woodman, received a draft for
| $3,000 payable to Mrs. W. Rat
i lift for the death of her husband.

Naked legs, like an inverted
fork, bare arms embracing a
puffed - up spherical object, a
kwhisp of cloth around the middle
on which is the brand of their
outfit, a young squirt leaning ov
er in an attitude of making a
lunge — basketball takes over.
Football and baseball in retire
ment. What a lot of fun wrapped
up in the balls. Bowling balls,
billiard balls, baseball, vollej
ball, tennis ball, football, soft
ball. golfball, and the one-time
popular handball that entertain
ed for hours O’Neill sports like
^he late Jess Mellor and John
Horiskey.
Grounds dedicated to this
sport were on the alley by the
Snyder lumber yard and over
shadowed all other outdoor a
musemenis during a season or
two.
The Indians had a ball game
of their own when I was about a
6 - year - old, and those husky
bucks could throw a ball a quar
ter of a mile for another redskin
to catch in a net affair. Just who
conceived the idea of pleasure
with a ball, that has now become
the source of princely salaries of
the professionals?

A farmer has 8-or 10-thousand
bushels of grain. That’s pretty
wonderful. And then how to con
vert it into cash. Southeastern
Nebraska elevators are jammed
to the roof with hundreds of
thousands of bushels. When a car
is available truck loads from
the farms wait in line for a chance
to unload. They may have to
return to the farm with the load
unsold. There is just more corn,
wheat and oats down this way
than the local markets can take
care -of, the explanation being a
shortage of railroad cars. A farm
er informed me today that of his
10-thousand bushels of grain he
has been able to market but two
truck loads. His mother-in-law
has a thousand bushels of share
crop wheat on her farm but the
elevators in five towns can’t take
a bushel of it because they are
filled up. More elevator room or
more freight cars to haul the
grain out is an imperative need
to the marketing of the Nebras
ka farmer’s grain production. A
few truckers are coming in from
Oklahoma for corn.

A farm couple who have a
sizable flock of Rhode Island
Reds counted the gathering of
eggs for several days past and
discovered they would have $90
worth when the egg buyer drove
in at their place. Eggs were then
near the dollar mark. By the
time the buyer came around the
egg market had split wide open.
Thirty or 35-cents for eggs looks
like a steal to poultry raisers
now. An earlier generation got a
nickel a bushel for their com and
3-cents a dozen for eggs — and
they survived, paid for their
land, maintained contented
households and grumbled none
about roads and taxes.

The public is led to wonder .
what the tie might be that

A church group honored 1950
as their holy year. For the world
the year ends in bloodshed. Dis
aster, national and international
worries, revolting crimes, unrest
and fear have about left us crazy
as we enter another year. May
the guiding hand of human des
tiny see us safely anchored on
pleasant, peaceful shores amid
the floral bloom and fragrance of
future days when man will con
vert the sword into the plow
share for a breathing spell. (

Holiday greetings from many
friends have been received. I
should like to send a personal
word to each one individually
but probably they do not expect
this. Soon after Christmas 1
shall take off for Burbank, Calif.,
where I expect to be in the home
of my daughter during January
and February, besides getting up
and down the ocean - washed
coast line to a limited extent.
