Mayor Gering Springs a Sensation by Resign

Over City Attorney Ramsey Resigns
Th.-rc was a ast rrow.l of itiz.-ns

night, drawn there by t lie expectation

In this the people were disappointed,
but thev did Ret a chance to see sev-
eral sensations sprung, chief anions

tion of Mayor Gering. No Inkling of
the mayor's intentions had got ten
abroad. 'ami when he announced his
intentions immediately following the
rejection of . O. liwyer's name for
city attorney, there was a genuine
s.ns;tli n. It can be said, how ever,
that .Mayor Cering has had this step
in contemplation for some time. Ow
ing to the vast expansion f his busi
ness, lie 1ms found it absolutely nec
essary to retire from politics and
must de.ote his entire time to his
own affairs. This was the primary
cause of the resignation. 1 lie action

Plattsmouth. without exception, feel
that the retirement of Mayor tiering
from the bead of the city government
is little short of a calamity. They
recognize that he has done a great
deal for the city and their regret at
his leaving is genuine and deep
seated.
'ity Attorney Kamcy IN'-igii.
All the members of the council
were present when Mayor Gering
called them to order last night. There
was also a large crowd of citizens on
band to see that the council did the
right thing for the city. After read-
ing and approving the minutes of the
previous meeting. City Clerk Klster
read the resignation of City Attorney
W. C. Ramsey, who resigns in order
to devote more of his time to prepar
ing to take up the duties of county
attorney on January 1. Mr. Ramsey's
resignation takes effect December 1.
On motion the resignation was ac
cepted. The mayor then appointed D. O.
Dwyer as city attorney, eulogizing
Mr. Dwyer's legal ability highly, and
stating that Mr. Ramsey had consent
ed to take entire charge of the hand
ling of the Whelan case. The ap
pointment of Mr. Dwyer led to a
storm of denunciation of that gentle
man for having brought the Whelan
c-ae. The mayor assured the council
that Mr. Dwyer would not oppose the
city in the Whelan case if he was ap
pointed city attorney. Falter then
opposed confirmation, citing the
Whelan case as an unjust one and
severely criticising the bringing of
the suit. Sattler wanted a statement
from Dwyer as to where he stood on
the case. -Bookmeyer was doubtful
as to how to vote on the matter after
hearing the various speakers. He
didn't know what to do in the pre
mises. Mayor Gerin Resigns.
Mayer Gering then uncovered his
sensation. He announced from the
chair that he would resign the office
of mayor, seeming to be greatly dis
pleased at the turn affairs had taken
He severely criticised the speeches of
the councilmen and indicated tHat he
was resigning largely because of their
refusal to confirm Dwyer. Steimker
thought the mayor's criticism and act
ions uncalled for and expressed his
regret at the situation, but he in
common with the others, opposed
Dwyer on account of the Whelan case.
Falter again criticised the Whelan
case and the appointment of Dwyer
under the circumstances.
A roll call on confirmation dis
closed the following result: Aye
Cchluntz. Sattler. Xays Falter,
Weber,, Steimker. Neuman, Schulof,
Mendenhall, Vondran. Not voting

The city clerk then read the writ
ten resignation of Mayor Gering.
which he verbtally insisted being ac
cepted. On motion of Neuman. sec
onded by Steimker. the resignation
was unanimously accepted.
Mayor Gering then relinquished his
seat to President of the Council Sat
tler, and taking his hat and coat
started hurriedly from the room.
He was halted by President Sattler,
who then verbally extended his
thanks on behalf of the people of
Plattsmouth to Mr. Gering for his
excellent work in tneir behalf. Mr.
Sattler made quite an eloquent little
address and spoke with much feeling,
his remarks being applauded warmly
by the assembled citizens. Coun
cilman Steimker then expressed his
mm
; gratitude to the mayor for his tpl.-n
did conduc t of the city's affairs. H
spoke of his personal disagreements
j with the mayor, but asserted that no
lone doubted but he had always dom
his best for the city's interests, an 1
that his ambition and work ha 1 ai
! ways bee n directed to the city's best
i interests. 1 ie considered the mayor's
j leaving the city a calamity, and asked
j the c ouncil to adopt a vote of grat
, itude to him. This was done by t
rising vote.
Mayor tiering llecply Tom lied,
, tayor Gering then came to tin
r.,jjniK aIuj addressed the council
That he was deeply touched was evi
dent. It could be seen that lie was
having difficulty in suppressing the
emotions which he felt. He spoke of
his rise in the t it y where lie ha.l ob
faj,,.,j st;. t and regretted the cir
. .umst;inces of having to leave. He
i ass,.lt,.(i that he had always had the

Claims Allowed.
Business then commenced with
President Sattler in the chair. The
nuance committee reported the fol
lowing claims against the city which
were ordered paid.

The bill of Guthman & Cory for
$1.00 was referred to the claims com
mittee.
The judiciary committee then re
ported an ordinance vacating a por
tion of Main street for the subway,
which on motion was referred back
to them for investigation. An ordi
nance to permit the Burlington road
to build the subway and providing
penalties for vandalism on its walls
was also offered and referred to the
judiciary committee.
The judiciary committee also asked
for further time on the Woodworth
claim which was granted.
Another Hot Shot.
Virginia McVicker then threw an
other hot shot into the council in
the shape of a notice of an appeal
from the rejection of her claim for
damages to her property on North
Sixth street by reason of grading of
the street commissioner. She also
had a bond in the sum of $50 on
hand with Fred Ramage as surety.
On motion of Schulof the matter went
to the city attorney.
The claims committee reported that
they would have to have further time
upon several claims in their hands
which caused President Sattler to
give them what the poet calls a "jack
ing up." They got the time just
the same.
Sattler for the streets, alleys and
bridges committee then stirred up
another row by reporting in favor of
lowering the cement crossing at
Seventh and Vine streets. There was
a wrangle in which most of the coun
cil took a hand and many strange
and interesting tales were told of
favoritism in work and other things.
Schulof started the row by amending
a motion to have the work done, so
that it would be done after the walk
at the East Fourth Ward school
house had been restored and a cross
ing at Fourth and Rock streets fixed.
In the end the amendment was lost
by a vote of 7 to 3, Schulof, Neuman
nd Mendenhall voting for the amend
ment and all the others against it.
Councilmen Steimker and Neuman
had a highly interesting seance over
this matter.
The street committee also recom
mended that retaining walls be con
structed at the new cement culvert
near Judge Beeson's, the culvert be
ing now put in. On motion this was
ordered done by tne street'.' cora
t.r'uee. It was also agreed that Dr.
Ulster, the efficient city clerir, de
mand the money to pay for this cul
vert and the retaining walls from the
county which had some $700 of the
city money.
The street commissioner's report
was found to be O. K.
The fire and water committee by
Chairman Vondran reported the
hose company reports O. K. which
was adopted.
The Lighting Matter.
The lighting committee then re
quested further time In which to in
vestigate the several proposition
be ore them, which was grantel.
Conn il.nan tehulhof then spoke ol
the large number of citizens present
and detired to have them express
their views on the lighting problem.
President Sattler called upon John
St hiappacasse, the fruit man, and
John proceeded to unloaj his exper
ience upon the council, evidently
misapprehending w?.at was wanted.
He cited a mass of figures to show
that be was paying too much for
light at present but at no time :id
he enlighten tie- council as to whu
he wanted for street lights. He
spoke of the poor quality of lights
here at present and that there was
no power to be had in the city.

The Devil.
As portrayed in the comedy of the
same name '"The Devil" is but an em
bodiment of human nature's im
pulses, a naked showing of the hu
man desires conceived in darkness,
doubt and fear, nurtured through
weakliness and cowardliness until at
last, strong as a lion and shameless
as the Satanic imp himself, they burst
fort and stalk fearless in the light
of day. Aptly is the piece named for
t is his Satanic Majesty and from
he first curtain to the last and the
brilliancy of the play is but the bril-
iancy of this character's witty lines
and well delineated answers.
Of course "The Devil" stands only
for the evil thought which is in the
mind, and the use. of the character
by the author is employed for the
purpose of development of an idea
which must be admitted to be not
only unusual and startling but de
cidedly interesting.
That the Burwood Stock company
is to present this remarkable play
that all the world is discussing here
on Monday, November 30, at the
Parmele is a matter of intense sat
isfaction for all have effher heard
or read of the remarkable success
with which the play is meeting, not
only in America, but in Europe,
where it is now being played simul
taneously in eight foreighn countries.
The Burwood Stock company will
bring the Burwood production here
intact in every detail.
Answering the query as to his iden
tity, "The Devil" says: "I came
from nowhere, I go where ( and
touching his questioner's forehead)
I am here." The German version
of the play is used, but it is none the
less develish because it has been trans
lated from the Hungarian into Ger
man and then into the English lang
uage. This Devil wears no livery of
the realm of brimstone. No red garb
points him out to all as the monarch
of the lower regions. He moves
among his fellows one of them, per
haps, a little more cruel and certainly
a deal more powerful.

He Tempted Fate.
From Tuesday's Daily
It is reported that a farmer over
near the Otoe county line was robbed
a few days ago by a "farm hand" he
had hired to pick corn. Had the
farmer kept his money in the bank
it would still be safe and secure. As
it is he is out both money and a corn,
husker. Don't tempt fate. An old
boot is all right to keep nails in but
it makes a very poor bank. Louis
ville Courier.
Watched Fifteen Years.
"For fifteen years I have watched
the working of Bucklen's Arnica Salve;
and it has never failed to cure any
sore, boil, ulcer or burn to which it
was applied. It has saved us many a
doctor bill," says A. F. Hardy, of East
Wilton, Maine. 25c at F. C. Fricke &
