Great Enthusiasm for M. W. A. Picnic
The "Iloyal Woodman" official or
gan of the Nebraska M. W. A., comes
out in its July issue with its main
first-page article a big account of the
grand picnic to be held here August
2. The following is clipped from the
article:
"Never has a Modern Woodmen pic
nic aroused greater interest in Omaha,
South Omaha and vicinity, and at this
writing nearly all the camps in the
two cities have taken membership in
the association. In addition many
country camps are expected to join,
including all the camps of Cass county,
in which Plattsmouth is located.
"Plattsmouth is making elaborate
preparations to entertain the visitors
The beautiful city is abundantly able
to care for the thousands expected.
The picnic grounds are in the heart
of the city and are ideal. Cass camp,
No. of Plattsmouth, has vowed
that this picnic shall be the best ever
held in this state, and with this end
in view appointed this strong commit
tee, which has been working conjunc
tion with the officers of the Omaha
District Logrolling association: Neigh
bors Mayor Henry II. Gering, I). U.
Smith, Dr. E. W. Cook, William Hass
ler and Fred W. Ebenger. This com
mittee has been hard at work, and
when the picnic day arrives will have
everything in ship-shape condition.
"The Omaha and South Omaha con
tingent will go on a special train,
which leaves the Burlington station at
5::W a. m. The railroad officials will
have plenty of cars on hand and a
feature will be the checking of lunch
baskets and hand baggage at the
Omaha depot direct to the picnic
ground without charge. Hound trip
ticket are only 1 cents: children 2.

Feel Impending Doom.
The feeling of impending doom in
the minds of many victims of Bright's
disease and diabetes have been chang
ed to thankfulness by the benefit de
rived from taking Foley's Kidney Cure
it will cure incipient Bright's disease
and diabetes and even in the worst
cases gives comfort and relief. Slight
disorders are cured in a few days. "I
had diabetes in its worst form," writes

Demand for Empties.
The demand for empty box cars for
the grain trade, says the Lincoln Jour
nal, is about as strong with the Bur
lington now as it ever gets to be. The
demand came almost without warning.
The railroad people looked for the
grain trade to become a considerable
item about this time but they did not
look for it to come on with the rush
that is now being grappled with. The
usual supply of box cars for this week
has been swelled with 750 empties sent
westward by eastern lines and brought
to Lincoln :n long special trains,
known as dragouts. "The Burlington
yards are about as full of empties to
day as they could well be," said a yard
man yesterday, "but by tomorrow
morning the supply now in the yards
will have been moved to the stations
awaitidg them for loadinn purposes
and a new lot will be in our way. Sclid
trains of empty cars going westward
are meeting solid train loads of new
grain on the way to market and the
circulation of business just at this time
is keeping the Burlington busy."
It is not unusual for Burlington en
gines to haul eighty and more "emp
ties" west. In railroad parlance these
cars are noted as "mts." Loaded c?rs
are known as "loads."
Off to the Northwest.
Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Wer-ott and Mr.

The trip from there will be by way of

Lake. They will be gone three or

CITY WINS
OLD SUIT
Attorneys Notified of Decision
of Circuit Court.
THE CASE DISMISSED
Plaintiffs Given Two Months
to Ask Rehearing.
Case of New Hampshire Savings Benk and
the New Hampshire Banking Co. vs.
the City of Plattsmouth Decided for the
City Several Thousand Dollars Were
Involved.
This forenoon Jesse L. Boot, II. I).
Travis and Matthew Gering, attor
ney for the city in the case of the New
Hampshire Savings Bank and the New
Hampshire Banking company against
the City of Plattsmouth, received a
communication from John D. Jordan,
clerk of the circuit court of appeals
for the Eighth circuit, informing them
that on the 24th of this month an
opinion written by Judge Pollock in
that case had been filed in St. Paui,
reversing the decision of Judge Gar
land, remanding the case to the
court at Omaha, with direction to
dismiss the application of the Banking
company for a deficiency judgment.
The plaintiffs will have until Septem
ber to tile application for a rehearing.
It is not believed by the attorney that
a rehearing will be granted.
The case is one of long standing. It
was tried in November 1!K)4, before
Judge Garland, of South Dakota, as
sisted by Judge Munger, and decided
in favor of the plaintiff. By this de
cision the city was required to pay $.'5,
33ii.35 with interest at per cent from
March 1st, 11)02. and the costs of the
hearing. The city appealed from this
decision to the circuit court of appeals
for the eighth circuit. The case was
argued before Judges Pollock, Vande
venter, Sanborn and Hook by Mr.
Gering at the June l'.KKi term of that
court.
The case grows out of the city's at
tempt at municipal ownership. When
the city took charge of the plant it
was encumbered with 30,000 of bonds.
When the first term of the city's
losing contract with the light com
pany expired the city continued to re
main in possession of the plant, but
for some reason the city authorities
refused to pay taxes on the property,
or to pay the $1800.00 interest on the
bonded debt.
Thereupon the Ne.v Hampshire Sav
ings Bank and the New Hampshire
Banking Company, the owners of the
30,000 bonds commenced an action in
the United States Court in Omaha,
asking a foreclosure of the deed of
trust, and that the city be held by its
acts to have purchased the property
and that it was liable for the $30,000
bonded debt; asking that the property
be sold and the city held for any defi
ciency. The city employed Mr. Matthew
Gering as special counsel in its inter
ests and he associated with him Mr.
Jesse L. Root. They, with Judge II.
D. Travis, represented the city when
the case was tried in the circuit court
and court of appeals, which courts de
cided against the city. And these
same men have fought the case
through to the present successful end.
The judges of the circuit court of
appeals give careful consideration to
all cases before deciding them and
rarely reverse themselves or enter a
second opinion in a case before them.
The final orders may not be entered in
Omaha till October or November, but
the outlook now is that before the
close of 1505, every vestige of this claim
against the city will be wiped from
the records of the courts and the city
released from apprehension that it
will be called on to put up any more
money on account of its first dip into
municipal ownership of public utili
ties. For Sale or Trade.

NOT IF WITH NEBRASKA
That's What A'pheus Adams S3 ys Ahotji
California, from Which State He
Has Just Returned.
A I pi ie us Adams, and wife ami chil
dren, who have been vUitin' at tlx
home-of Oliver Dovey Inr vvi r;i! l is.
left Monday .afternoon fur Lincoln.
They have just returned from the
Pacific coast, taking in Portland and
other points.
Mr. Adams was in the banking busi
ness in Eagle lefore he went west. He
disposed of his Interests there some
time ago and went to the Pacific coast,
with the intention of settling there.
But it didn't take bin) long to decide
that when compared with Nebraska
the Pacific coast country is not at all
"in it.:'
The land in Oregon is mountainous
and hilly. Much of it would not. he
considered by Nebraskans to he worth
farming. Fields are small, of neces
sity. When they reap their grain they
generally begin at, the bottom of a lull
and cut round and round it till they
reach the top. Mr. Adams ays he
would not exchange a quart er sect ion
of Cass county land for a thousand
acres in Oregon.
The cities he considers to he largely
of false growth. They an; kept up by
tourists. They have been built up by
eastern speculative capital. The docks,
too, are in bad shape. No largo ships
come up to Portland because the Wil
liamette river has a shifting, shallow
channel, a very poor harbor.
Mr. Adams has looked over the field
thoroughly and is positive in his opin
ion that Nebraska is better both ii
towns and country than the Pacific
coast.
Prose to the Farmer.
During a recent trip out in the
county the glory and independence of
the agricolist the lord of the field
and farm were impressed upon the
writer, and, marking the manifold re
reward for his trust in nature, his
hard work and his perspiring brow, in
the great munificence of this year's
crops, we thought, how thankful is
he?
The click of the reaper, t he hum and
smoke of the thresher, the swish and
sweep of the rakes and stackers and
the fragrance of their burdens, the
scamper and squeal of the copper col
ored Durocs and the cheerful saluta
tions of the dusty and sweat-begrimed
farmer these were some of the
things that made us long to be one oi
them the most independent, aod de
pended upon class on earth. And then
we thought of the priceof corn, wle at ,
hogs and cattle, and the wads of lon -green
after the market-day, of the
winter's relaxation from care along he
side a barrel of Winesaps an 1 a li;in ;li
of ease, peace and contentment. l
a big wood-fire and t lie mountain oi
scrub-oak and cot ton wood upon which
appetites might be sharpened with
the occasional use of a sharp axe, of
the tranquility, the health of early
hours and wholesome food -and, oh.
well! Who would not be a farmer i'i
Cass? k.w.
More Big Fish.
Jake Miller's fishing luck turned
this morning. Jake has lines set all
along the river from Main street, to
the mouth of the Platte. This morn
ing, just after sunrise, he was making
the rounds taking off a two or three
pounder here and there, arid figuring
rather a meagre profit at cents a
pound. Fishing didn't seem like a
very remuneiative business to .lake,
and he probably was suffering from t he
Monday morning blues, anyway. He
had made half the round-, and gath
ered up about three small ones whet,
he reached the hook that, was holding
the day's fortune. Be pulled on it.
and at once a great commotion arose,
and the water was churned into foam.
Jake knew he had a good one After
a struggle he landed it. At. John
Ilatt's store it weighed -" pounds.
It was reported that Mr. Miliei
landed another tish at about M o'clock
this morning, the estimated weight of
which was H pounds.
Matt Joy and wife and Joe I'e'.ci
and wife caught a 0 pound catliih in
the Platte near Swallow Hill yester

A Mistake in the "Cook."
The item we clipped a few da.1, s Mric--from
the Nebraska City Tribune to
the effect that Mrs. James Co'.-k ' f
Julian had been seriously burned by a
gasoline stove, is a mistake insofar as
it refers to James Cook, jr., of Cedar
Creek. Our friend Cook at Cedar
Creek says he is not married, never
was and don't contemplate com mil
ting matrimony soon. Mr. Cook passui
through the city one day la.-t w eek on
route for Julian, where he formerly
lived and where he owns property, to
look after some business matters, and
not knowing he was an old bachelor,
we presumed that the Mrs. Cook burn
ed was his wife. However, the Jour
nal stands corrected.
