Uq are TliasaEifc!
The Day of Thanksgiving re
minds us of a multitude of things for which
we should be grateful. The past year has
been one continued round of success for us
in a business way. Hardly a day has
passed that we have not heard expressions
of confidence in this store; always there
has been the feeling with customers that
they could secure better values right here
in this store than by going outside or risk
ing the disappointments incident to mail
order buying. We have always sought to
give our people the best values possible,
standing personally back of every article
sold. That the people appreciate our efforts gives us real cause for Thanksgiving. This confi
dence of our patrons has enabled us to go into the wholesale markets with greater assurance and buy
more liberally and generously of the best in men's apparel so that we are prepared to show you a
most tempting array of fine clothing and an amazing collection of the season's newest haberdashery.

Question of a Highway Commis

Considerable Attention.
I
Plattsmouth Needs One Very Bad
ly, Especially One Much Larger
Than the Present Depot.
Street Sweeper In Use.
Tin- cily street department lias
been busy I. In; lasl few evenings
in the sweeping of Hit; streets, and
as a result, tin streets present a
1 1 1 1 1 -1 1 belter appearance, ami will
he in good shape now for some
Unit!. The selling in of the
snowy weather will do away with
the use of the sweeper to a law
extent and it is just as well to lie
prepared by having the streets
placed in proper condition.
The great need for a new llur-1
linglnn depot in this city is
demonst rated every day, w hen I ho
neon wail ing for trams arc, '
compelled to wail on the plat,
forms, as the rooms are not large
enough to accommodate those
who do their" traveling over this
road. The olllce room, too, is
very small and makes the task of
the otlice force harder to handle..
Tint Hurlington railroad and the!
citizens of I'lallsmoulh have so;
many interests in common and
the freight, business of the city is:
handled over that road almost ex
clusively, as well as almost all the'
passenger business. i
This cily is cut it led to a depot 1
more suited to the amount of:
business that is done here and
that, can accommodate the travel
ers is without question, and if the
officials of the road become fa
miliar with the facts in the case
they will doubtless lake some ac
tion to out in a new station here.
The Commercial club should take
tlifl mntter up with the proper
officials of the road and sett if an
understanding in regard to tint
needs of a new depot cannot be
reached. The report is that the
company contemplates I he repair
ing of the present depot, but it
would not cost them a great deal
l cither put up a new one or to
enlarge the present depot lo ac
commodate, the traveling public.

The State Automobile associa
tion, which held its annual meet
ing in this cily this week, start
ed the ball rolling for good roads
legislation this winter by auth
orizing the appointment of a com
mittee to represent its association
and to be part of a general com
mittee made up from other or
ganizations interested in good
highways so that the joint com
mittee can prepare a bill along
reasonable lines that will go to the
legislature. There ought to be
unity of action and the question
of just what character of a bill Is
presented ought to bo threshed out
before the legislature meets so
that there can be one uniform bill
going into both branches of the
legislature backed by the or
Sanitations working for good
roads and so that their entire ef
forts can be centered in one di
rection.
fn the discussion before the
Stale Automobile association, the
question of a highway commis
sion seemed lo be given a good
al of attention. This is only
one ol a numiier ol lorms tnai
legislation may take, but the fact
ougiil not lo ne overlooked mat
whether there is made a slate en
gineer of highways, who shall be
a salaried official with individual
authority, or whether there is a
stale commission, or whether
there art! optional commissions
for different localities, the fact
should not he overlooked that the
stale should provide a tax for
good mails development. It
should be a lax sutlicient to raise
annually at least $100,000 to be
expended in connection with coun
ty road work, and this should be
raised in a permanent way
through a fixed levy, not for one
year, but for years in the future,
so that with every mile of good
road made one year, there will be
more money forthcoming to con
tinue the good work the year fol
lowing ami so into an indefinite
future, until Ihe highway problem
for Hie stale is solved. Lincoln

their goods.
Glory in the downfall of a man
who has done much to build up
your town.
Make your town out a bad place
and stab it every chance you get.
Refuse to unite in any scheme
for the betterment of the material
interests of the people.
Tell your merchant you get
goods a great deal cheaper in
some other town and charge him
with extortion.
If a stranger comes to your
town tell him everything is over
done and predict a general crash
in the near future.
Patronize outside newspapers
to the exclusion of your own and
then denounce yours for not be

If you are a farmer, curse the
place where you trade as the
meanest on earth. Talk this over
with your neighbors and tell them
the men are robbers and thieves.
It will make your property much
less valuable, but you don't care.
