Letter to Editor
Dear Townspeople:
There has been much comment
on our action in trying to enjoin
the city of O’Neill from going
ahead with the street-widening
program. We would like to ex
plain our position.
We feel that whether or not you
are for having the road go around
town or have it remain in town is
of little concern. We are advised
that the state can, at any time,
by-pass the town whether we do
anything about it or not.
Further, we feel that the re
quirements of the state in our
particular case are rather unrea
sonable. They are requiring us to
have a 79-foot street. Only re
cently the papers had an article
showing that McCook had a 47
foot street approved on which
three main highways run, one of
them highway 6.
We feel that the people that
come to O’Neill and trade with us
will be greatly perturbed if they
cannot get a place to park close
to the shopping centers. Even the
tourist is not going to park a
long way off and walk to a shop
ping center. The state, not our city
council, will have the right to
regulate parking along the two
highways.
We think that the state is being
a bit unreasonable with us, a town
of approximately 3,000 .popula
tion, when they do not by-pass or
put similar restrictions on such
cities as Norfolk, South Sioux
City, Grand Island, Kearney,
North Platte, Ogallala, Sidney,
Kimball, or McCook, to name only
a few.
From our own persona] stand
point it will put both of us out of
the filling station business. If this
project is completed it will mean
an unknown financial loss to us.
That is why we have opposed and
will continue to oppose the city
council’s handling of this matter.
Yours truly,
C. J. GATZ

the tulle skirt and chapel sweep
train. Her French illusion finger
tip veil was held in place by a
fitted band of seed pearls.

roses on a white Bible.

with matching net stole, and pic
ture hat. She carried a bouquet
of mixed sweet peas. Miss Carol
Soukup of Omaha and Miss Dar
lene Tasler of Atkinson wore

Canadays to Take
Over Ewing Cafe
EWING—The Stockmen’s cafe,
owned and operated for the past
12 years by Mr. and Mrs. Art
Sanders, has been leased to Ann
ette, Jim and Frank Canaday of
Gordon.
Mr. and Mrs. Sanders operated
a cafe at Neligh before coming to
Ewing in 1940. They continued in
this line of work, opening a cafe
I at the location of the Eggleston
variety store.
In March 1944, they purchased
the present location from Mrs.

summer months that followed, re
modeling and modernizing of the
building was done. Living quart
ers were arranged at the rear.
In September they opened the
Stockmen’s cafe which has been
their place of business and home
ever since.
The Stockmen’s was a popular
place for bridal showers, recep
tions, food sales of various or
ganizations, club dinners and
many other social events which
required large accommodations.
Mr. and Mrs. Sanders and fam
ily have moved to a residence in
northwest Ewing. Mr. Sanders is
