Prairieland Talk— Who Rememebers Everds? By ROMAINE SAI'NDF.HS, 4110 South 51st St., Lincoln 6, Ncbr. LINCOLN On South First street in O’Neil stands a house as it was built about tbe year lSSti by a New Yorker by the name ot Fverd, who with his wife and one son came to O'Neill, Nobody knew why. He conducted no business, worked at nothing and the three of them were at preaching services every Sunday at the Methodist church. The Everds disappeared from the community some 10 years after they had "pitched their tent" here gone and forgotten as others that were once a part of community life participating in the work, the play, the struggles or just sat at home as did the Everds. They may have came west for adventure, for renewal of physical vigor or just to see Saunders the bronco busters plunging along the streets and in open places. Is there one left in O'Neill who knew the Everds? Likley not. I know of at least six families that had occu pied the house that Everd built after the original owner moved out. And those six families, too, have passed out of the picture. Traveling in memory along the streets ot O - Neill today the ghosts of long ago come to greet you in vision. Some lie under the sod up in the cemeteries, others left for parts unknown. And time will write the finish to those left behind. City hospital workers report hospital bods are empty for the first time in years. In view of the high cost of being sick, we take a dose of salts now for the belly ache and stay home. . . Wiscon sin has gone democratic and sends an agent of that party brand to the U. S. senate to fill the seat of the late fighting Joe McCarthy . . . Two young men pulled into Lincoln recently from the West coast anil got jobs the first day. They had been employed at factory work in a southern California city and were caught in the ‘‘lay off” of men. Af ter a hunt for jobs in northern California, Oregon and Washington they headed for Nebraska. . . Pcbve I. Ota, an American-born Japanese, is serv ing as a chaplain in the United States navy- He and his father, Rev. Touska Ota, are lioth minis ters of the Presbyterian church . . . Churchmen’s Cbuncil for Decent Literature has started action in Washington, D. C., in which a score of churches are participating . . . Some airplane workers in Pacific coast areas are to be layed off. • * • The Bible continues to be the "best seller” among the multitude of books coming from the presses of Yankeeland. The American Bible so ciety reports its business amounted to 16,170,058 Scriptures distributed over the world in 193 lan guages so far in 1957. South American lands made the greatest demands. The presses of tile Bible society used 959 tons of paper turning out the printed pages. The morning dawns calm after a night of rain. Fresh wash I'd the earth gleams in verdant green and the late summer floral display along the way is adorned in blue and gold and red. You stop to look, then a hand reaches out to pluck a fragrant bit of that floral bloom. Cool and pleasant without, you break away from the four walls and walk abroad. Summer days are passing and other days await us, autumn days adorning praineland in changing colors. This morning will pass, the day will run its course and night will come, day and night and another summer on prairieland lays off the silken gown of green. So the seasons come and go and some of us have grown old, but let not the young squirts think the future is all theirs. • • • September- some things that entered the world scene this month in bygone days: Santa Fe Republican, first newspaper in New Mexico, 1847. I September 5, 1847, Jesse James born in Clay county, Missouri. September 8, 1157, Richard the Lion-Hearted was bom. September 9, 1942, first enemy bomb hit American soil at Mt. Emily, Ore. September 15, 1847, first 19-hour workday law pas sed in New Hampshire. September 22, 1862, Pres ident Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclama tion. September 27, 1847, first passenger train on the Providence-Worchester railroad. * * * There is a Wounded Knee in South Dakota where a Holt county man of letters, Will Spindler, has been teaching in an Indian school for a quar j ter of a century and writing I looks clothed in the literary vestments of romance and thrilling ad I venture. To friends who have addressed words of j sympathy over my wounded knee, I thank them j for so doing and add the wound is quite thorough ly healed. • • • Right or wrong. President Eisenhower’s for eign policies are opposed by many of our citizens. Elections in a few states going democratic are not party victories in the partisan sense. There has been during the years of our political history dis tinctive principles dividing Republicans and Demo crats. Not so today—just one group in, the other out wanting in to get at the pork barrel. • • • The Nebraska State Historical society will hold the society’s annual meeting September 28 in Lin coln. Among the speakers to appear before the group Maurice Frink, director of the Colorado His torical society, will be here. He has written some books dealing with western life and will doubtless have tilings of interest to tell at this gathering. • • • Potato chips are now big business. Saw on ihe street today a boxcar size truck delivering “chips” to food markets about the city. “Chips” seem a necessity at the dining table. That saves tho cook the job of peeling and preparing spuds for the kettle and frying skillet. Civil rights, as our statesmen in Washing ton see it, Ls now it. Hid you ever know of a negro committing suicide? The high cost of liv ing probably is less concern with them than the high cost of dying. Editorial— iBirmie’—End of An Era The death of Hugh J. Birmingham, 66, life long O'Neill resident, removes from the scene a colorful citizen whose passing might correctly be chronicled as the end of an era. Though not always in robust health, he was a champion of rugged individualism; he was a conservative businessman gifted with rare percep tion; he was one of north-Nebraska’s best-known residents. His father, the late T. J. Birmingham, managed to put together substantial capital in Galena, 111., and then came West -to Holt county—where that capital was put to work. Hugh, an only child, was reared here, was graduated from the University of Nebraska in 1913 (arts and science), served as a.lieutenant in the balloon observation corj)s during World War 1. In his younger days he ‘‘roughed it'' on the range and in lumbering in Wyoming and Montana. The elder Mr. Birmingham, who had pioneer ed in hanking and livestock in this area, died and Hugh, best-known as “Birmie”, carried on. Hugh demonstrated extra-ordinary acumen In banking, livestock, farming and investment fields. Early in the morning the day he was flown to Rochester. Minn., he encountered a herd of steers being driven into O’Neill for private sale. He guessed the gross" weight of the herd within a few pounds Several hours later he was in Rochester where less than three days later he died. Mr. Birmingham's interest in cattle was a dominant factor in his life. He worked tirelessly toward improving herds and on occasion made multiple-purchases of high-priced bulls at the na tion’s biggest stock shows. He would resell the animals to ranchers, usually on a time payment basis, and thereby made an important contribu tion to upgrading the industry. ■“Birmie” carefully watched the markets and frequently “bid up” offerings to insure that the producer was getting paid a fair price. Mr. Birmingham acquired extensive holdings of ranch and farm land in the area. He was an ardent booster for Atkinson and its business and Industries, particularly during the more than 17 years he headed the First National Bank there. He instantly could become acquainted with people in all walks to whom he was known as “Birmie” or simply "Hugh”. The persons who Riled St. Patrick’s Catholic church at the funeral testified to his following. Mr. Birmingham was a widely-traveled man. He was seen at the major livestock expositions and the small ones. He had traveled abroad and had booked passage for next January to commence a round-the-world journey. His death leaves a void. His death marks the end of an era. It’s a Tax on Kids! (Pierce County Leader) From over in Iowa last week came a report on one year’s operation of their sales tax. During the big battle in Lincoln at the legis lature many facts were pointed out about Iowa’s wonderful sales tax. Here is one fact that may make you stop and think ... 28 cents out of every dollar collected In Iowa for sales tax is paid on grocery purchases. That's a tax on every man with a big family, i A man and wife without children get by pretty cheap. A man whose family includes three or four children is paying the heavy burden of Iowa sales taxes. In other words the Iowa sale* tax is a tax on kids! The second highest tax collection was from general merchtindi.se stores . . . that means cloth ing and shoes . . . another tax on the man with the large family. So when you look at the Iowa sales tax it cer tainly cannot be considered as a fair tax. In Nebraska when a baby is born dad is blessed with a federal income tax deduction. When a baby is torn in Iowa your taxes go up to feed and clothe another youngster. The talk of sales tax will crop up in Nebras ka again. The next fellow that tells you he favors a sales tax, just ask him, “Oh, you mean that tax that is paid by the big families and where each youngster means more taxes.” This is one case where the grass is not green er on the Iowa side of the fence. The Home Town Paper When the evenin’ shade is failin’ at the endin' of the day. And a feller rests from labor, smokin’ at his pipe o’clay; There’s nothin’ doing him so much good, be fortune up or down, As the little country paper, from his ol’ home town! It ain’t a thing of beauty, an’ it’s print ain’t always clean. But, it straightens out his temper when a feller’s feelin’ mean. It takes the wrinkles off his face, An’ it brushes off the frown— That little country paper for the ol’ home town! > It tells of all the parties an' the “balls” on punkin’ row Bout who spent Sunday with whose girl an’ how the crops'll grow An’ it keeps a feller posted about who is up an’ down — That little country paper from his ol’ home town! Now, I like to read the dailies an’ the picture papers, too. An’ at times the latest novels an’ some other trash, don’t you? But, when I want some readin’ that’ll brush away a frown I want the little paper from my ol’ home town! CARROLL W. STEWART, Editor and Publisher Entered at the postoffice in O’Neill, Holt coun ty, Nebraska, as second-class mail master under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879.

A Tribute Twenty-five years ago this poem appeared in The Frontier handed in by a friend of the late Dr. J. J. Gilligan, a pioneer O' Neill physician and surgeon. Said The Frontier editor of a quarter of a century ago: "Tc those who know the beloved doc tor and his acquaintances were legion this poetry will have ■ special signifance." On September 28. 1930. I>octoi Gilligan died—that was 27 years ago. THE COl’NTRY DOCTOR | No waiting room of luxury and pretty white-clad nurse To copy down your history and estimate your purse. Instead, a well-worn, shabby room, himself to greet you there, i With keen blue eyes to note your need as he tilts in a swivel chair. Somehow you lose your panic, your dark fears drop away, As he talks of crops and weather and passes the time o’ day. Before you leave you're grinning and your chin comes up again, And you’re sure the sun shines somewhere behind today’s cold rain. He has no shining limousine to purr on well-paved street, But a sturdy car that goes be yond where mud and pave ment meet. 1 He churns along without com plaint where an anxious woman stands Waiting in open doorway with a lamp held in her hands. His patients are not smartly clothed, the sleek, white-col lared elan; Instead perhaps in overalls, dead pale beneath his tan, A man with twisted leg lies still and seeks with pain-filled eyes The doorway. When the doctor comes there peace from tor ture lies. I think when Gabriel blows his horn a special greeting waits The man with little well-worn bag beyond the golden gates. Somehow I sorta wonder if he won’t be lost indeed, For his happiness has always been in tending those who need. —Ruby Swenson M’Lean. When You & I W'ere Young . . .
