Wanna Buy Pickstown?
By ROMAINE SAUNDERS. Retired. Former Frontier Editor
LINCOLN—Pickstown, S.D., the home of the
creators of the Ft. Randall dam, has been put up
for sale.
That Missouri river community just across
our border in South Dakota, has witnessed much
of historic interest and is rich in pioneer lore.
For many years federal troops were stationed
there to protect settlers from the
scalping knives of Spotted Tail’s
warriors and to discourage out
laws.
O’Neill at an early day was
the trading post for soldiers and
others at Randall and one of the
first graves in the east cemetery
just to the northwest of the vil
lage called O’Neill was that of
Captain Hooker, who had been
in command at Ft. Randall. Mrs.
Hooker, the widow of the cap- Romaine
tain, had the body of her hus- _ _
band exhumed and taken to his
former home in the East for permanent burial.

It doth appear that the cards have been stack
ed against Senator McCarthy. Must we conclude
that the senator's associates in the halls of con
gress have been touched with envy because of
what one of their number has brought to light?
The committee set up to "investigate" the Wis
consin senator start their investigation by a
unanimous vote to bar McCarthy and his coun
sel from presenting their evidence. Maybe the
senate committee should now be investigated.

A friend sends me a copy of the Washington,
D.C., Evening Star, an 80-page edition of an early
September date, which pictures the recent parade
of the American Legion men and women and says
editorially it was the greatest and most colorful
event that has appeared in the nation’s capitol
since General Grant’s troops and officers came
down Pennsylvania avenue after the close of the
war between the Northern and Southern states.
The Legion, as a patriotic organization, has taken
over since the Grand Army of the Republic has
become extinct. Colonel Towle, the hair-raising
orator of O’Neill’s Grand Army post, Comrades
Mack, Skirving, Slattery and all who wore the
GAR badge hereabout are in their graves up on
the hill. Legion patriots must now unfurl their
banners of freedom until they, too, have gone the
way of the Roman legions and those who follow
ed after.

Material substance sustains human life. Daily
bread is a fundamental fact of life. But we need
not revel in riches. Not many have millions, but
the sunlight, the blue above and the green be
neath are yours; you have the budding rose and
the nodding goldenrod, the slanting rain and the
smell of clean earth, the glow of early dawn and
• the gold of sunset; hours rich with love and days
jeweled with joy, the thrill of contact in the hand
clasp of a friend, the privilege and the pleasure
along life’s way of giving a lift now and then—
all this that the tax collector doesn’t list on his
schedules.

So we are equipping a German army with
the tools for battle? What next? It was German
world dreamers who involved the nations of the
earth in two hell-tom blood baths. W’ith the Ger
man people armed for war something will again
set the world aflame. Russia, who claims every
thing but has contributed nothing to civilization,
will probably be the first victim.
With the pissing of the Ewing Advocate “30”
has been called for another Holt county news
paper. From a total of 20 newspapers that have
been published in Holt county, the number is now
reduced to four. Ewing had an Item, published by
Clarence Selah, who later moved it to O Neill.
Clyde King, the gifted author of “Noman’s Col
umn” and joint publisher of The Frontier in the
early ’90’s, started his printing and newspaper ca
reer in the Ewing Item plant and boasted to us
fellows that he had “fed” 10,000 envelopes through
the Gordon job press in one day and had run the
press by foot power. John Trommershauser was
another early day lawyer-politician who published
a paper in Ewing. About every lawyer and poli
tician thought he had to have a personal organ
in the way of a weekly paper. It made jobs for a
score of hand compositors, if nothing else.

Michael Mullen, one of the firm of Mullen
Bros., contractors in O’Neill, died in an Omaha
hospital July 10, 1903, and the body was brought
here for burial. . . Rev. M. F. Cassidy departed
early in July that year for Buffalo, N.Y., to be
gone three weeks . . Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Mack and
little daughter were up from Inman to spend a
day in July that year with friends in O’Neill. . .
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Meredith were entertaining in
their home at First and Everett streets a niece of
Mrs. Meredith,. Mrs. Bird Butcher, and her two
daughters. . . A 9-pound girl was reported arriv
ing at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John McManus
a day in July, 1903. . . Lightning killed five horses
at the John Wrede ranch in northern Holt county.

Out democratic friends have been so long
deprived of control at the stalehouse that they
had about given up hope, but National Commit
teeman Boyle over at Omaha sees a ray of
light in what he concludes was indifference on
the part of Nebraska patriots upon the occasion
of the president's visit. When a town the size of
McCook furnishes a crowd of 30.000 to greet
President Ike maybe Mr. Boyle should revise
his estimate.

A care-encumbered lonely soul a few blocks
up the street felt that she could no longer en
counter the storms of life and she was making her
escape from it all by the hangman’s noose, but
was out of luck again—the rope broke when her
200 pounds came down. Damage was repaired at
a hospital where they all go now, from a guy with
a sore toe to a matron who gives birth to a new
citizen.

A little town in Saunders county was the
scene and had the excitement of a bank robbery,
a lone bandit making away with $800. A 17-year
old school kid has been arrested and admits the
crime, some of the money has been recovered. If
the court will now sentence the youth to get a job
and go to work and pay off the fine and what is
yet due the bank, it will meet general approval.

Franklin D. Roosevelt, jr., is campaigning
for the job of governor of New York. His brother,
Jimmy, is campaigning for a seat in congress from
a southern California congressional district. Prai
rieland patriots are not concerned over the politi
cal ambitions of the Roosevelts, but they may
have the chance to vote for or against a Roosevelt
for president at no distant date.

Editorial . .
Eisenhower and 1956
A consider a ole amount of speculation has al- <|
ready risen over the course President Dwight D.
Eisenhower will follow at the 1956 republican na
tional convention. Visitors to the Denver white
house lately have reported that the president does
not intend to run again, and this has set off a chain
of comments.
Only about one thing is certain at this stage
■of the political speculation. That is that the presi
dent, and every other republican official, has no
knowledge of conditions which will prevail in the
summer of 1956. If the country is at war, we are
willing to go on record as predicting that Mr.
Eisenhower will offer his services again.
If other circumstances arise which tend to
make the president feel that he has a job to fin
ish, we believe Mr. Eisenhower will decide to
run again, even if there is no war. If there is some
particular condidate who seems assured of the
nomination if Mr. Eisenhower does not run, we
believe this would have a considerable bearing on
his decision.
Only if the country is in relatively sound
financial condition and if there are several strong
candidates for the republican nomination, in which
situation the president’s weight could swing the
convention to his choice, the president might step
down. There is no doubt that being president of
the United States is no picnic and that President
Eisenhower is tired of the great game of politics.
However, it seems to be easier for presidents
to conclude that they may not run for reelection
two years before the time comes than it is the
year of the nominations. In Mr. Eisenhower’s case,
we are willing to go on record that the president
still maintains a high degree of personal popular
ity throughout the country, and that he is the
strongest single personality in the party, and
able to draw the largest number of votes.
Thus, if for any reason the president declines
to offer his services in 1956, the republican party
will suffer at the polls as the result. So far, few
top republican officials are willing to believe that
the president will not run, but then we remem
ber a day in the spring of 1952.
We hadn’t thought President Truman could
step down either, but he did.
Crimes Decrease in England
Sir John Nott-Bower, metropolitan LondoA
police commissioner, revealed recently that the
crime rate in London is on the decline. Contrary
to the trend in the United States, and in our
largest city, New York, the crime rate in London
is now at a record low since World War II.
This is an interesting development in view
of the arguments of some Americans that British
bobbins should carry' guns. The fact that they still
do not carry pistols and that the crime rate is
. going down in London—whereas it is going up in
America—creates hearty doubts whether arming
the bobbies is necessary'.
One of the most surprising developments in
England, as sliown in Sir John’s annual report, is
the fact that a decrease has been registered in
the number of arrests of persons under 21-years
of-age. This news from England points up the seri
ousness of the increase in fcrime in the United
States.
In his last report, for instance, Police Com
missioner Francis W. H. Adams of New York re
ported that in almost every crime the six-months’
figures for this year are up over the six-months’
figures for 1953. The rise in crimes among teen
agers has been especially discouraging and should
get every citizen’s sincere attention.
Off the coast of England is the Isle of Man
where juvenile delinquency is virtually non-ex
istant. Authorities there are empowered to pub
licly wallop a juvenile who has flagrantly broken
the law. Curfews are imposed on those under 16.
Delinquency on the Isle of Man? There isn’t
any.
‘Melon Swiping’
(From The Stanton Register)
A few days ago state papers circulated a story
originating in the deep South wherein a group of
youngsters were arraigned in court on a water
melon stealing charge.
It’s probably one of the best on that particu
lar subject. After hearing the testimony, the
judge simply rapped his gavel and ordered all
those within the room who had never swiped a
watermelon to stand. None stood.
“Case dismissed,’’ said the judge, noncommit
tally.
While one cannot countenance stealing in any
way, we were all young once and there’s some
thing about lifting a melon that seems almost
justifiable and certainly is difficult to regard as
a crime, even though it is. You might term it one
of those things where people simply wink their
eyes while they “tsk, tsk” the offender.

Presidential Draft
A silver - haired grandfather
was tugged out of his comfy bed
last Thursday evening and draft
ed to become president of the
newly-created O’Neill Communi
ty Concerts association.
' F. E. (“Parky”) Parkins, Con
sumers Public Power merchan
dising chief in the 13-county O’
Neill district with one eye
cocked on a retirement date a
couple of years hence, was buried
iri a mystery yam when the SOS
was sounded. About 30 people,
many of whom were meeting for
the second time within four days
in hurryup organizational ses
isons, jumped on the Parkins
suggestion with both feet. In a
moment he became president of
OCCA. By that time he was fully
clothed and ioined the crowd.
Some one has said the organ
izers could not have done bet
ter than picking "Parky" for
the presidency.
Parkins has had considerable
experience in the entertainment
field, particularly when headquar
tering at Kansas City, Mo., and
Omaha. He was in a black-and
white piano and dance team, did
vaudeville and some straight
laced entertaining. In late years,
"Parky” occasionally puts aside
his livelihood chores and mystery
mags and grinds out lyrics and
music to “pieces.” His score to
date: Three phonograph records
and four sheets of music.
Each time a Parkins piece is
put on a disc the "Voice of The
Frontier” premieres it on the air.
"Parky’s” son, the late Robert
("Bob”) Parkins, was a popular
Nebraska radio announcer until
his untimely death in 1947. Young
Parkins had been in fragile
health for a number of years, but
his airlane fans never were aware
of it.
When Alec Templeton, Mr.
Rubinoff or Gladys Swarthout
comes to town O'Neill's
"Parky" will be on the recep
tion committee by virtue of his
yield to the presidential draft.
In addition, he's a good admin
istrator and an able organizer.
Last week was an eventful one
for Parkins. A day or two before
he forcibly was routed from his
bed to become OCCA president,
he was buzzing along the road
near Bloomfield. He seldom lis
tens to the radio show, “Queen
for a Day,” originating from Hol
lywood. This day the program
v/as introduced and Parkins
zoomed along dreaming up mer
chandising ideas for 100-watt
light bulbs, contentedly leaving
the dial as was. Presently, the
emcee asked a young woman her
name and her home address.
“Ny name is Mrs. Charles Yar
nall of Riverside. My name be
fore 1 was married was Jape
Parkins of O’Neill, Nebr.”
Jane is Frank’s daughter.

Miscellany
Finest tribute yet paid to our
“Voice of The Frontier” program:
William W. McIntosh of McIn
tosh Jewelry ordered the tele
phone company to install a direct
phone wire, linking our studios
with his store with the result the
“Voice” comes into his store
crystal clear, thrice weekly. Dean
Streeter of Dean’s Barber Shop,
our nextdoor neighbor, likewise
wanted a special wire and Dean
reports business picks up before
the broadcast hour. . . Paul Elam,
the Gold Range, Inc., organizer,
expects to come to town today.
Gold Range operates in the
Ward, Colo., district. Elam’s wife,
Margaret, and their daughter,
Patty, have been visiting the Vic
tor Halvas for several weeks. . .
The University of Nebraska 1954
football season already is a suc
cess—we’ve received our compli
mentary press tickets. . . Ever try
driving from Redbird to the
Spencer dam, hugging the Nio
brara river as closely as possible?
It’s scenic and enjoyable. Be sure
to allocate at least a half-day to
the project. That’s the time it
took us.
