A GENTLE RE
LUMPER OF SPRING
Bring Many Thoughts of New
Spring Millinery for
the Ladies.
To the ladies of Plattsmouth and vi
cinity M. Fanger wishes to announce
his annual showing of new spring crea
tion in Millinery, Saturday, March 21.
The hats this spring are great. Any
one can make hats, but few are made
like those that are to be shown in Mil
linery department of M. Fanger's store
next Saturday.
There is something to making a hat
besides grabbing up a bolt of ribbon,
some foliage and a bunch of flowers and
dabbing them on a shape. First the
shape must be a becoming one to a cer
tain form of face. Then the foliage and
flowers must be selected to harmonize
as a whole. Then just the right trim
ming must be placed here; this rose and
bow right there.
Looks sinple, doesn't it? But little
do you know the hours designers spend
in getting just the right rose and just
the right bow in just the right spot.
That's why we ask you to buy Fanger's
hats.
APPEALS TO A
HIGHER COURT
The Missouri Pacific Takes the Man
Icy Elevator Case to U. S.
Supreme Court
In speaking of the celebrated Manley
elevator case, the Lincoln Journal says:
"The Missouri Pacific railroad yester
day took the steps necessary to appeal
the Manley elevator case from the su
preme court of Nebraska to the supreme
court of the United States. It will be
carried to the higher court on a writ of
error. The suit started in the district
court of Cass county. The Manley co
operative grain association sued to re
cover the statutory penalty of $500 be
cause the railroad compsny refused to
build a transfer switch to the plaintiff's
elevator. The suit was brought in the
name of the state and the district court
imposed the fine provided for in the
statute of 1905. The supreme court
recently affirmed this judgment. In the
meantime the elevator company had ap
plied to the railway commission for an
order compelling the road to build a
switch. This application is still pend
ing before the commission."
THEODORE ROOSE
VELT, DESTROYER
The Banks are Fearful of Disaster,
and So are the Railroads.
May we not by observation see that
Theodore Roosevelt is a destroyer by
nature; a destroyer, and not an up
builder. It is not true that in the his
tory of his life, in his writings, acts and
utterances, the very sentiment and
spirit of destruction, is the dominant
element of character; the destruction of
animal life, of human life, the destruc
tion of men's character and men's lib
erty and property? Are not today the
master Toilers and Upbuilders, who
have made this nation great and its
people rich in material things, the very
target upon which is concentrated the
mighty engines of this great nation un
der his control? And for what? To
ruin and destroy them and with their
destruction the destruction of the vast
enterprises upon which our national
greatness is builded, and with which"
our people are fed and furnished witli
material comforts and luxuries.
If the present crusade is to correct
minor evils which have crept in under a
new condition of things, we hear noth
ing of it. The dominant thought is de
struction, vengeance, ruin and spoila
tion. " 'Tis true, in all humanity, there is
the element of the wolf."
'Tis one of the baser passions; it is
the passion that tr ought the populace
of Rome, Patrician and Plebian, and
"all of the assembled maids and mat
rons and the holy virgins they call ves
tals," to the arena to see the gladia
torial combat, to see human beings torn
to shreds by wild animals, to see the
blood flow, the crunching of human
bones, and the blotting out of human
life.
There is in the unthinking multitude
today a great admiration for the de
stroyer, provided it is not their proper
ty, or life, or happiness that is deing
destroyed. But in this contest it is
everyone who will be hurt, from the
greatest to the humblest, as the cam
paign of destruction goes on.
Already the great industries of the
country are curtailing. The banks are
fearful of disaster and tightening up
money. No one will extend business
with this menace hanging over him. If
it continues, mills and factories must
either cease or limit their operations.
Railroads, as a result, have less traffic,
and every business man feels the effect
of the unrest. The ominous conditions
will naturally be following, indeed, al
ready are followed by throwing thou
sands out of employment. Those who
have applauded loudest at the assault
on industries now feel its direct result.
The merchant will face bankruptcy,
the workingman without work will face
hunger, the applause at the assaults of
the destroyer will cease, and the great
industries which form the foundation of
all our wealth, luxury and prosperity
will be dormant. But when this comes
once more will be written on the pages
of history the triumph of the Spoiler
over the Toiler. Jay Howard Russell,
in the American Business Man.
They Returned the Carpet.
Some ten days since, a carpet belong
ing to H. D. Barr disappeared and at
the time Mr. Barr saw some one place
the goods in a wagon, to which was
hitched a sorrel and a white horse and
drive away before he could see who it
was. Yesterday the carpet was re
turned, and the same sorrel and white
horses were for a short time seen in
town. Who returned the carpet is not
for a certainty known, but it was
thought to have been at a certain place,
and later developments are to the effect
that tne suspicions were well founded.

Peruna.

Will Move to New Mexico
John Thompson returned Thursday
from Clayton, New Mexico, where he
has been for the past week and where
he filed on a quarter section of govern
ment land as a homestead. John is well
pleased with the country and thinks he
has a fine piece of land. His place is
located eight miles north and three
miles east of Clayton, and only a few
miles from the Texas line. There is a
school house one mile from his claim
and a store to be opened soon a mile in
another direction, which makes it very
convenient for both school and trading.
A branch of the Colorado Southern is to
be built northeast, and a station wil lbe
located six miles from Mr. Thompson's
claim. John thinks he will be nicely
situated and is well pleased with his
trip.

WiSh Her Many Friends She Cele
brates With Eclat the Day in
Appropriate Manner.
On each recurrence of St. Patrick's
day, Grandma Oliver celebrates her
birthday, of which this is the sixty
ninth. The day was spent at the Oliver
home in a manner befitting the respect
which is being shown to the lady of honor
who has seen many years of joy, some
commingled with sorrow, has witnessed
many scenes and made many friends,
who on this occasion seek to do her
honor.
The delicious dinner, the beautiful
decorations, the jolly time with the
many friends of her youth, middle life
and riper years, will long be remem
bered by those who gathered around the
festive board on this occasion.
Those from out of the city besides
her numerous friends at this place,
who celebrated the occasion with her
today were: Mrs. W. A. Hallan and son
Oliver of Lincoln; Mrs. Anna Mills of
Ft. Crook; Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Eads
and two daughters. Misses Fay and
Fern of Omaha, and Dr. Ward of

Don't neglect your cough.
Statistics show that in New York City
alone over 200 people die every week from
