Those who know whereof they npeak, asnnre tin that the outlook for I'lutt.-minuth in brighter than ever In-fore in the his tory ui the city. And while hostile railway legislation would injure ns we have irood reason to believe that even if such railway measures were to pass, they would he promptly vetoecl by the governor. The out look for the M. I. diop plant beinjf located here is flattering. The lare whops of the company at Kansas City were burned down and it is re ported in official circles that they will be rebuilt el sewhere. I'latts 'mouth is understood to be better sulied for the convenience of the company, all things considered, than any other point on the line; and HIE JlEKALI) believes we will et the plant. The matter in in food hands and will not be allowed to , lag. The advent of the M. I also means much in the way of new fac tories, such as starch mills, oat meal mills and paper factory. If every "Vian, instead of mu'iiiij? faces at his .neighbor, will help to push things thia spring, you will see property double before the year closes. Pro perty in lleatrice today, either vacant business lots or residence lots, sells for three times as much money as like property here will bring. Pro perty is too cheap here, and the man wiio purchases at present prices will live to bless the day that he invested. In a financial and busi ness sense our city is far ahead of .Beatrice, as is shown by the condi tion of their banks in contrast with our own; in fact there is a not a town in the state where money is easier or business men more prosperous than right here in Plattsmouth; let our people take ad vantage of their opportunities and make this the jear of Plattsmouth's greatest pros perity. The discharge of men at tljd'e lio)s may not occur unless bad legislation at I,incoln compels it and from what we have heard today we believe the necessity for such will not occur. House Roll No. 456 Is a bill introduced by Shryockof Cass, now in the hands of the judi ciary. It is ijuite an important measure and is warmly advocated by many attorneys. While we never had occasion to criticise the old law, yet we confess our inability to find a good reason why a change of venue in certain cases should not be 4aken from the court of the cotr.ity judge. The new bill pro vides as follows: iBl-.IT KXACTKD IIV THK Lkchsla- VKF. OK THE STATE OF NEIIKASKA: KCTION 1. That in all actions be gun in any county court of this state, either civil or criminal, over which justices of the peace have concurrent jurisdiction with county courts, a change of venue may be taken from said county court to the nearest justice of the peace to whom the objections do not apply, in the same manner and for the same causes that a change of venue is now granted by law from justices of the peace. Section 2. All acts or parts of acts in conflict with this are hereby repealed. j The Klmwood livery barn has again changed hands, Mike Cavey having rented the barn for one 3-ear md bought all the stock. The Kcho feels confident that it has fallen in to good hands, as Mike is a rustler lit anything he undertakes. The leal was made Tuesday afternoon and Mike took possession fifteen T'.nntes after the trade. Success, ou e.

Geo. W. Fairfield, of Mi 11a tare, Cheyenne county, Neb., made the HERALD a pleasant call today. Mr. Fairfield was one of Cass county's earliest settlers. and lived in this city for many years.

Warned In Time. The more we live the more we fiud by dam out." And the more we think over the matter the more thoroughly we become convinced that the office of county commis sioner should be non-political. We must all unite on a man who will serve the people and not split upon thugs who care not for honor and will sell his vote for filthy lucre. Therefore be it known that now and forever more the editor of this paper will in future aid and use influence in electing a man of honor to that ffice, let his politics be independ ent democratic, or what-not. This farce must conic to an end. The time is coming when it will be a "solid west" against the now "solid east," irregardless of political relations. Klmwood Kcho. Soldiers' Reunion. If. C.
