READ THIS ARTICLE Slowly and Corefully, and Never Stop Reading Until You Have Read It Through- I propose to give you my reasons for leaving the city, but my mind ?s drifting today, and I am liable to be talking about other things before I have finished my speech; so hoping you will overlook the small errors. I haye lived iu Platts mouth for several years, in fact, the greatest portion of my life; yet I have had experience enough in other cities to make a few comparisons. 1 under stand Plattsmouth's situation, and I be lieve I understand her people to perfec tion. Like all other cities she is inhabit ed by a people of different nationalities, the majority of which are good, true loy a', enterprising, energetic citizens; and while living in your midst Ihaycenjoyed my life, socially, very much, and believe tliut I have met with a great many who would, if necessary, befriend me, while on the other hand, I am positive I have cnemhs by the score who would, if were possible, persecute me, but as we nil live under the same government, a gov emmi ih or peace ami protection, nut guarded by its laws, I feel perfectly 8'ife among you. I suppose each of you have an opinion formed of me, and I trust your opinions to be good ones. Whet he thev be good or evil, you will bestow i great kindness upon me by having them concealed ana carefully deposited away in a well-secured place of forgetfulncss for safe keeping. Now then, citizens, know it is not a common occurancc for a I my to shoot off his tongue in this manner adrcssing1 older ones what they must do, telling you of vour faults, and fce ; but T find it necessary for me to do something for my country, and I propose to tell you pcopi ! some of your greatest faults, and will endeayor to show you where you are making a great mistake. I find you peo nle are negligent in a great many respec's. (Tlti' vnimjr man in tli esillery will please k'-e.) i,ii-'t or leave the hall You iie neglecting the performance of vour duties as regards the young men of vour citv. I have had quite a business experience for a kid. and have had i tr-stc of business life, making me fee deeply interested in tne weilare and up building of our young business men. m not here to dictate for, or advise you is to what you must buy, or where you -'loubl buy it, but I do feel as though you were not doing your young business men mstice. lucre are young men in this city who are as equally competent in knoweledge for the managing of a busitK'Ss. ns there ure in other cities, and I fee! .-afe in making this statement, that the majority of the young business men of other cities of this size are doing a rlouri.-hing business, and the citizens take pride in the upbuilding of their young merchants and boast of their success. We a:e not perfect by any means in every respec t, we all have our faults, peculiari ties msd enemies. If you can show ma a man, young or old, without them, I will directly refer you to the insane asylum when- they keep such victims. Every house must have a solid foundation. Just so with the business firms of your eity, and I consider you people as the fotin-iMtion of every business firm in the 'ity. Every business firm depends upon you for its support and strength, conse quently, wherever you patronize mer chants outside of your own city you are jradu dly tearing away the foundation of your home merchant. You absolutely make the first failure, and then comes I he down fall of your home merchant. notice whenever you have money, as a jenerd rule, you go to soni3 other city N sp nd it; but when you are without die fi'thy lucre and want r.n accomoda tion, you go to your home merchant and isk !r a so-called stand off, from thirty l iy t: six years' time, and when the sKTchant presents you a statement of four account, you feel highly insulted. rtcuu v.ihvr we can't succeed in business jvithrut your patronogc in full; we ap prcei.ite your trade even though it be iinnll. If we succeed in business, it is an honor to you; but if we fail in business, it is y-ur failure and not ours, for you hive f illed to perform yo lr duties as citizen to us. Of coarse circumstances l alter eases. In this ca-e I am speaking in behalf of the respectable, honest, up right voung business men such as you have in your city nt Lie present time. I would have more to say in favor of cur irejud'cted father mcrcharts, but they never have anything to speck of in our .favo-; when we nsk for advice they tell ;is to go west and jrov tp with the ..our.try. That kind of advice is netting ?:tal . Citizens, if you can t speak a good vor.l for the boys, 'lave nothing to say .gainst them. Do away with all of that j rejii'Meed. jealous, envious feeling you nave existing within your hearts toward jour fellow men, and especially toward our young men; encourage them, in tend of making fun out of every tiling ,hey undertake to do, The majortty of ,he ioys ot today are afraid to make a display of their intellect, iu the presence ft older ones, for fear of making mis nkc, :ind being laughed at. I don't f-oiub r at the number of bisbful and ov.-:ird!y Uien the world possesses today ! ecai!.-: a youth ii called n boy is noeyi teuce of hi being a tool, and if your oys I; ive a desire for wearing nice cloth ing and have ambition enough to work iend i-iiii their own living i::d make noney enough to pay for their attire, I 'ay, give them the privilege of so doing. 'Suco-.ir.ige them in the good work, for Mud a boy eats and wears is two-thirds wh.it he receives iu this world, and j.e otle.r third is hard times. Because : our b.y has a desire to dress neatly is no vid. nee of his being a dude. What a bless! iig it would have been to a great many of our young men of today if the inveh'or of the word "dude" had been para!., z d just before ha uttered the word. The word is disgusting. If a young man puts on a clean garment with cutTs, collar and necktie attached, and make- his appearance upon th? streets, some one will make the remark. " There iroes a dude." I think it would be wise for y i to e-.conrage your boys and have nice, clean so called dudes in your hcuis, than to discourage them and have a ragg? 1, worthless set of loafers lying around your hearthstone eating and drinkin.; the result of your hard earn-j Ism&h.titsT Sale I Our Odds and Ends of DRESS GOODS !

I don't believe you know the real meaning of the word dude, if you did you wouldn't call your boys that name. You might just as well call them fools, for the word dude is simply a substitute for the word fool, and he that calleth his brcther a fool is in danger of hell's fire, so saith the good book a book which I believe to be true and accord ing to my theory, he that calls his brother a dude is in danger of the same warm place. The word dude has ruined a urcat many of our young business men finan cially. Let a young man in business have the reputation of being a dude, no mat ter whether guilty or not uubty, just so he has the name of being one, you will see him gradually loosing his customers one by one until he is obliged to sell out. There has been erected within the hearts of the people a hatred for dudes, and the word dude is simply an instru ment of destruction, owned by the devil, placed within the hearts of men for the purpose of destroying your own boys. This dude question is far more important than the tariff question. TMav I ask pome kind person to lower tlie wimlowK in oriier that I may receive a little fre.h air upon t lie subject. Citizens, it is now nine o'clock and my time is up, and if I have said anything in my speech to be sorry for, it is because I couldn't think of anything more to say. I wili give you my reasons for leav ing the city some other time in the future.
