Tiik ('hss County H-mle, edited ly that
immaculate statesman, IIarry Oristcpher
Hace, buils over aain this week in county
seat mutters. He preten s to iutcrview
a list of gentlemen who were, as lie says,
counted off of the petition. Mr. Race's
star performance a3 a sneak and hypo
crite comes in when lie represents to tluse
men that their names were not counted,
jet were on the p'it'tion in a lawful
manner. Here is his interview with C.
II. King, a man with whom most of our
people are acquainted, having lived heie
as (sheriff of the county ac an early day:
"C. II. King 13 justly indignant. Says
he, "I am well known to the old inhabi
tant of Plattsmuuth. When I go there,
they shake hands, paw the air, and act
like a lot of school boys, tit th renewal
of old associations. For thirty two years
I have been a voter in the county. Todd
was not a voter when I came, and Tritsch
had not left the old country. Now if I
am not a yoter, what the devil Ami any
way? Ami will you tell me what lam?"
Well, you are a blank blankety fool tf
you take any stock in the misstatements
of your county seat crunks. If you will
look over this much talked of petition
you will find evey name has been count
ed that tl;e law vould permit of. You
may have lived here for three centuries,
but if you did not sign the petition :i
t!ie law directs no commissioner who
valued his oath would count your name.
The law very plainly states what shall be
done, and any rditor who-e chief disiie
is not to deceive the people, would, alter
looking in:o the question, s :y th' t the
commissioners were honest and fair. If
t'lis pet'tion was all riieht. why di I you
i.ot follow it up in the comts, instead of
getting out and circulating a new pet i
t on? You are a convicted liar by yo'.it
own acts, Mr II ice, und you know it,
and you ought to have enough respect
for the intelligence of the good people of
("ass county to n- t thi:.k you can deceive
'hem with such die p ialk as you have
been indul'rii'g in There never was
more law-abiding board of county coin
i 'issioners in this county than tne one we
now have. Til 'y will do their sworn
:u'y regardless of the howls -f mounte

Miss Day is willing to do some work in
elocution and calisthenics in our schools
if she receives the proper encourage

work would be a great addition to our
