Sniggs’ 3 Tons of Horseshoes
By ROMAINE SAUNDERS
° LINCOLN — I don’t know whether or not ;
O’Neill has furnished a story that got a start on
a trip around the world since The Frontier came i
out a day in October, 1931, with
the story of Emil Sniggs’ three
tons of hoi^e shoes. Emil was
something of an artist shoeing
horses, of which he made a spe
cialty. The use of horses had
pretty well faded out and Sniggs
was caught with his storehouse
full of them. This made~a story
for us at The Frontier, not sus
pecting that it would be pounc
ed upon by newspaper guys all
over the country and out at sea.
One day Emil came in with a Romauw
clipping from the Honolulu Ad- Saunders
vertiser, sent him b^ Hugh Campbell, an O’Neill
boy in government work in the islands, the Hon
olulu paper having the story that originated at
• a typewriter in The Frontier office. As a result
of the publicty, Emil found markets for his
horse shoes. It pays to advertise.
• * *
L. G. Gillespie, one of the few survivors of
pioneer days in and about O’Neill, was a visitor
at the state house during a day’s sojourn in Lin
coln last week. Lloyd represented Holt county in
the legislature some years ago and got a measure
through that gave the Amelia people a state
highway. If business calls him to the capital city
during legislative sessions, Mr. Gillespie takes a
look in at the senatorial group. It was there I
ran into him and we sat on the sidelines and had
a visit. Senator Nelson was driving home that
afternoon to attend to some pressing matters be
fore returning for the session the following
week Frank occupies a desk up front and fits in
to the legislative picture, now a veteran serving
his third term.
* * *
November 25 the heavens spread a blanket
of snow over praireland. Since then it has been
sunshine and shadow, melting snows, sidewalks
and highways iced over and more snowfall. This
condition followed an autumn of cloudless and
rainless days and has brought again the assurance
of a fruitful season throughout the wheat fields
and grass lands. Visitors from across the line in
Kansas say they have had little or no snow and
the need of moisture is worrying them. A patch
of ice put Praireland Talker flat full length the
other day, the only injury resulting being a de
flated ego.
* * *
Out beyond the scarlet-tinted sky, out where
sunlight will never die, out under the evening
star’s bright eye, out beyond the haunts of evil
men, away from the talk of flash and crash of
atoms, out beyond the bugle call of marching ar
mies and the roar of bombing fleets, away from
the political intrigue as well as the scramble for
another dollar. Don’t expect td get there but
that’s the way it comes over you when you have
reached the period of life that enables you to
shake your iron-gray mane at the ignominies of
life.
* * *
It is definitely announced from Washington
that Val Peterson will sit in the white house,
which beats a seat in the senate chamber. Sti
pend: $15,030 per annum. A thrifty Nebraskan
will make out on that even in Washington.
---
I wonder, in these modem school buildings
do the kids now line up in a row along the south
wall as “teacher” used to have us do and “spell
down”? I was one of the first to succumb, but in
such event no brown-eyed lass ever came up
with what Whittier put into verse 40 years after
the grass had been growing on the grave of the
little girl who spelled the word a boy, such as
many another, had missed.
I’m sorry that I spelt the word,
I hate to go above you,
Because,—the brown eyes lower fell,—
Because, you see, I love you.
* * •
The gents and ladies now a part of official
Washington stand in happy array for a shot from
the camera, smiling and joyful. Lay this picture
beside that from Korea, a picture of the grim
reality of the world’s tragedy into which another
group at Washington had drawn America’s
young manhood. Will this smiling group now
taking over be able to bring an end to that Kor
ean tragedy, rekindle the light of hope in war
scared faces and restore young America to their
rightful heritage?
* • •
Anyway, Governor Crosby cutting the bud
get by nearly five percent overshadows his col
lection of pipes and that remark about a "hell
of a good question." Reducing your budget, of
course, implies tightening your belt. It looks
like some of the state's fancy things will get
the ax which will bring weeping to commun
ities and persons affected. It may not mean
much in the final analysis, as a dollar saved in
one quarter will be absorbed in another.
• * *
Three Holt county gents not enjoying unsul
lied reputations became involved in charges of
contempt of court during the Flannigan trials in
the early 1930’s. One of the three (real true name
unknown) was charged with contacting a juror
sitting in the trial of the case and offering him a
farm rent free if he would vote for acquittal of
the defendants. The others thought to buy a jur
or for $50.
• * *
Holt county banks are lousy with 10-cenJ
dollars. I recall ’walking up Fourth street in O’
Neill one day in the long ago when I fell in with
a young chap as we passed a bank building. He
looked up to see if the building was still there,
and announced, "I have $20 in there.” That was
a stake those days and young Clift Davis knew
how he had earned the wad.
* • *
When the legislature gets around to allowing
it, each of 295 Nebraska newspapers will get a
dip out of the $92,812.90, the newspaper charges
for printing the proposed constitutional amend
ments voted on at the last election. Of the sev
eral amendments all were approved by the voters
but the one increasing state senators’ pay.
» • *
Two incidents of the presidential inaugura
tion overshadowed all others in the minds of the
American people, a sentimental lot. Ike bowed
his head and sent heavenward a silent prayer.
And he kissed Mrs. Eisenhower. Husbands, did
you take notice?

Editorial .
On Winter Driving
A
Wilson P. Green, automotive expert at the '
Armour Research Foundation at the Illinois In
stitute of Technology, lists the following sug
gestions to winter drivers:
A heated garage is the best place for your
car on cold nights. When parked outdoors, you
can reduce the effect of cold weather on the en
gine by burning a large light bulb under the
a hood all night.
Your engine will start more quickly if you
use a light-weight oil and a husky battery. Dis
engage the clutch while starting.
Idle your engine before driving off. Do not
race your engine for long periods when it is cold.
Apply brakes gently when slowing or stop-'
ping in winter, and if you have the new power
brakes, test them cautiously for new responses
before driving at high speeds. Remember that it
takes a greater distance to stop on wet and icy
roads than on dry concrete.
The main rule is to drive slowly and keep
your distance behind the car ahead. Your head
lights, windshield wiper blades and defrosters
should all be checked.
If you follow this advice, the chances are
that accidents will pass you up this winter. And
since accidents kill over 600 people in this coun
try each week, these winter-driving rules might
save your life, if you follow them.
Time Marches On
(From the Blair Pilot-Tribune)
There was nostalgic and startling news the
other dav from Los Angeles, Calif. William Magee
was dead—and that officially leaves only TWO
members of the Grand Army of the Republic,
those sturdy veterans of the Union army of Civil
ward days, still surviving.
It’s hard to believe. We recall, as though it
were only the day before yesteryear, our great
grandad, H. H. Reed, telling us in his own
words of how he marched through Georgia with
Sherman. And how proud we were of him, even
when he admitted he and a buddy snitched two
pies from a southern farmwife’s window sill as
they marched along.
But yet time does march on, like the Boys
in Blue. Soon it will be an entire century since
the men in blue fought their brothers in gray.
Mr. Magee was 106 when he died Friday—that
means he must have been only about 15 when
he “joined up.”
Yes, time marches on. Some day, sooner than
we realize, people will point to us and say, “He
remembers actually talking to men who fought in
the Civil war.”
And while it will date us, perhaps, we shall
always be proud of the fact—that we actually
talked with some of the men whose bloody strug
gle made possible the united nation we know to
day.
—--■ ■ i -
North-Nebraskans certainly can’t complain
about the weather. Except for a wierd January
15, the month has produced unusually mild
weather.
Governor Crosby’s determination to reduce
spending in state government for the next bien
nium makes sense to us.
Most any competent worker can find an ex
cuse for not working.
Life in a large city is one thing w’hen money
is plentiful and another when it is not.
Sauce for Congressmen
For 10 days the headlines have been full of
questions and demands put by congressmen to
businessmen President Eisenhower has persuad
ed to become public servants. These men’s finan
cial and personal affairs have been examined
with a fine-tooth comb to make certain that they
would not conflict with their official duties. Sev
eral have been required to make very great sacri
fices.
In this, congressmen were fulfilling their ob
ligation to carry out the law. They have pointed
out that other citizens, notably the men drafted
for war, are alsft making heavy sacrifices.
All this has prompted us to wonder about
the thoughts of congressmen carrying on this in
quisition or supporting the demands of sacrifice.
Has conscience prompted any self-questioning?
Have many congressmen begun to think — as
many citizens have—that congress should apply
the same yardstick to itself? Remembering the
disclosures about extra sources of income for
congressmen that came out during the agitation
over the Nixon fund, some citizens have said
they would like to ask a few questions of the
questioners.
THE RURAL MAIL CARRIER
In the cold and blustery weather,
When the frost is on the rail,
Would you love to face a blizzard
With a half a ton of mail?
In the biting blizzard weather
When the snow comes to your knees,
Would you love to fish for pennies
While your feet and fingers freeze?
When the gleaming snow is drifted
Underneath a foot of sleet,
Would you love to have the chilblains
In your elbows and your feet?
When outdoors the wind is whistling,
And the air is full of snow,
Would you love to have a “Jitney”
And the blamed thing wouldn’t go?
Yes, I’d love the good old fireside,
Sipping coffee from a pail,
But I have to buck the snowdrifts
’Cause the farmers want their mail.
I don’t mind the frozen snowdrifts
When my knees are still with cramps,
If you keep the bloomin’ pennies
Buy a quarter’s worth of stamps.
I get snow mixed in my whiskers,
And I get it in my socks,
But it never hurts my feelings
Like loose pennies in a box.
The $64 question is this: Will coal in the bin
hold out or won’t it?

Rash of Bills Swamps Solons as
They Dig in for Busy Session
<5>
LINCOLN—The legislature set
tled down to something resem
bling sanity this week after a
hectic rush to meet the Monday
deadline for introduction of bills
by individual members.
So eager were the lawmakers
to write Nebraska’s statutes that
Bill Drafter Bill Wilson and a
battalion o f aides worked
throughout the weekend to slap
together bills that would at least
be suitable for introduction.
The grumbling was loud
among legislators who had de
layed submitting their requests
for bills. One senator found so
many bugs in his measure he
hesitated to offer it but col
leagues assured him it would
be better to beat the deadline
and try to get rid of the bugs
later.
Among the last to be intro
duced was Sen. Dwight Burney’s
sales tax measure in which he
was joined by Sens. K. W. Peter
son of Sargent and L. M. Schultz
of Rogers.
This is the third try for Burney
on a sales tax bill and he’s hoping
there’s some charm in that fact.
He estimates the bill would pro
duce around $26 to $28 million a
year.
* * *
Diversion —
To the surprise of nobody, the
legislature has a water diversion
bill in its lap again this session.
The 1947 fight over whether the
57-year-old Nebraska law against
diverting water from one basin
to another should be repealed
still stands as one of the classic
struggles in the history of the
Unicameral Legislature.
This year’s version was intro
duced by Sen. Richard D. Marvel
of Hastings who called his meas
ure ‘of primary interest and im
portance to all the people of the
state of Nebraska.”
Immediately young Sen. Joe
Martin of Grand Island promised
a last-ditch battle against the bill.
He based his opposition primarily
on the contention that any kind
of diversion of water from the
Platte to the Republican valley
would have the effect of lower
ing the water table in the mid
state area he represents.
Marvel said, “Representatives
from all sections of the state
have cooperated in the formula
tion of the proposed legislation.
We believe we have developed a
plan which all can support.”
While Marvel and Martin, both
relative newcomers to the legis
lature, head up the opposing
forces in the legislature, the real
protagonists will be the Tri
County Public Power and Irriga
tion district and the Mid-State
Reclamation district.
One ironic twist is that while
Martin is allied wth Mid-State in
the diversion fight, he has offered
a series of bills aimed at the dis
trict.
ik kr
Primary —
Sen. Hal Bridenbaugh of Da
kota City last week came up with
a pair of bills designed to re
form the method in which Ne
braskans indicate their choice for
president and express that choice
at the national political conven
tions.
Briefly, the two measures
would:
Retain the direct vote for
president in the preferential
primary but give Nebraskans a
more meaningful choice.
Apportion the number of dele
gates a candidate receives to the
actual vote of the people. The
present system, Bridenbaugh
maintains, in on a winner-take
all basis.
Bind delegates to support the
man they identified tnemselves
with on the ballot so long as he is
gaining strength at the conven
tion.
The bills are likely to find
rough going in the legislature.
One almost-certain foe is Sen.
Lefty Williams of Kearney who
two years ago managed to knife
the law under which Nebraska’s
nationally-famous all-star pri
mary was staged.
* * *
Highways —
As they always will, highways
continue to make news in the
legislature.
Sen. Karl Vogel of Omaha in
troduced his proposals to re-en
act the penny-a-gallon gas tax in
crease and the higher registration
fees which the 1949 leislature en
acted but which was repealed in
the referendum of the following
year.
Highway department officials
say the extra cent of gas tax, from
a nickel to six cents, would mean
$4V2 million a year for he de
partment. The higher license
fees—an increase from the pres
ent $5 to $8 for most passenger
cars—is expected to yield $1,700,
000 additional.
The farm, trucking and pe
troleum interests which spon
sored the 1949 referendum have
indicated they would be un

Teacherages —
The legislature has given its
tentative approval to a pair of
bills designed to help school dis
tricts in rural areas solve their
teacher housing problems.
The education committee re
ported out two bills on the sub
ject. One would allow school
districts to build, rent or pur
chase “teacherages,” and the oth
er legalizesjsuch previous acts by
school boards. The state supreme
court some time ago held that
such authority does not presently

Several school board repre

The legislature engaged in one
of its most heated and lengthiest
floor debates of the young session
trying ta decide whether it
should kill a bill giving itself the
say-so on removing monuments
and “works of art” from the capi
tol and its grounds.
The decision was to restrict the
language of the bill so that it
covers a narower field but still
includes the Bryan monument.
