July Fourth will be a red letter

Y'ork, as chairman of the arrange
ments committee, and his able
corps of assistants, are working
like beavers to complete the de
tails for one of the greatest cele
brations the city has ever wit
nessed. The committee is in com
munication with Hon. J. T. Miles
of Missouri, one of the finest
orators in northwest Misouri, and
fully expect to procure his serv
ices, for the oration of the morn
ing. There will be first-class
entertainment for the visitors
from the time the program opens
at 10:30 until the last rocket
ascends at night.
The committee received a com
munication from the management
of the Regimental band this
morning, stating that the band
would be on hand, but that it
would be delayed until the arrival
of No. 4, which arrives at the
Plattsmouth station at 10 o'clock.
As the program does not begin

not disarrange the program. ''

contests, so that a very exciting:
and spectacular racing contest

that a large crowd will be in at

expect every order-loving citizen

mittee and the officers of the city,
in upholding the law in all ways
conducing to the enjoyment of the
occasion by the visitors in the
city.
A few extra special police .will
be provided and every precaution
taken to insure a sane and enjoy
able celebration. The orator of
the day is one of the ablest which
could be procured and has a
strong voice and personality, and
by many is considered an orator
equal to Bryan.
