A Move for Good Roads Through
Otoe and Cass Counties
and the State.
There lias been a good roads
movement on for some time for
an occan-to-ocean road. The
road is to start from New York
City or Boston and come to Chi
cago. Then it is direct to Oma
ha. Here an etTort is being made
to have the road strike along what
is known as the Platte Valley
road, which is virtually along the
U. P. railway west.
A strong- effort is going to be
made to have the road come
south and thence west from Kan-
was City. Over in Iowa the
various towns are rivaling each
oilier in the matter of getting the
road and are not only fixing up
the roads leading to and from
their towns, hut beyond. As yet
this slate has not taken any
active part in the move. About
July 1st some three or four hun
dred automobiles will start from
New York City to make the run,
and on their decision will be
chosen the ocean-to-ocean route.
To show what interest the peo
ple all over the country are tak
ing in this matter the cement
manufacturers have agreed to
give ten million dollars' worth of
cement to be used in making the
road, which is to be sixteen feet
wide with a concrete base, of
either cement or brick. It may
be the road will be a concrete
base with brick for paving. Tin
auto builders and accessaries
manufacturers have agreed to
give 1 per cent of their gross
sales for this fund. The govern
ment is to be petitioned for 100,
000,01)0 for the aiding in the
building of this and other roads.
As soon as this main trunk line
is built then branch lines are to
be built to connect with it from
all points.
II. A. Huff of this city and T.
II. Pollock of Plattsniouth are
greatly interested in the move
ment, not only because they have
a bridge on the proposed line, but
because they are live wires and
are interested in many other
things that would be benflled by
this good roads movement.
This road and others connected
with it would bring thousands of
automobiles with their loads to
Ibis city, not only for supplies and
food, but would enable all of the
farmers and others to come here
at all seasons of the year.
Poor roads, bad weather or
an tiling else would not prevent
the auto owner or the owner of
any other vehicle coining to (his
city, it mattered not how bad the
weather was or how muddy it
might be on the dirt roads.
Messrs. Duff and Pollock are
going to call a meetjng of the
citizens of the cities and towns
along the proposed road to meet
in the near future and take the
matter up in the proper form. In
the meanwhile it might be well
for the commissioners and others
to get busy and put the roads
through the eastern part of the
county in fine shape, so the big
auto touring and inspecting party
who come in July would find the
best of roads through this part of
I lie state and select this eastern
Nebraska route for their per
manent route. This movement
means more than it would seem
on the face and if we are equal to
the emergency we may be able to
land one of the biggest things
ever offered to this part of I tie
country. Just, think of wtiat it
would mean to have one paved
road through this county and
what a big territory it would open
op to our merchants and others.
II would mean much to the trade
at. this point each year. Rail
roads haul loaded passenger
trains through this city every day
in the year, but they only stop
long enough to enable the people
to get off and on the train. A
string of automobiles come to
town, the machines need oil and
other supplies, the people need
something to eat and things to
wear. In their slay here, if for
an hour, it means they will spend
money, because they cannot help
if. II, means that in the course
of a day, Hie year round, that
more people will pass through or
stop in this city than all that
travel on the trains. It has lie-
come an automobile age and peo
ple are traveling in them, all for
a short distance and many of
them for a long fine. Will our
people take, up this matter and
aid in one of (lie best things ever
offered Ihein? This same appeal
applies lo all of the towns and the
people along the proposed line.
It is up to them to move ami that
without delay. Nebraska City

Iii Justice Archer's court today
lljylenii'r Johnson, a native of
Sweden, but who for a few weeks
lias been working around Louis
ville, was arraigned, charged with
carrying concealed weapons. It
seems lie became very threatening
at that city recently, and as he
carried weapons it was decided to
put him where he would do no
damage to anyone. The justice
decided to hold him over to the
coming session of the district
court, and he was removed to the
Hotel de Manspeaker, where he
will languish until his case is
called. The law is very severe on
the carrying of concealed weapons
and the man may be successful in
drawing a sentence in the peni
tent iary.

From Wednesday's. Dally.
Mr. J. II. Waterman of tlales-
burg, Illinois, who visited in this
city over Sunday, has given the
promise to our people that he
would return in the near future

titled "Christianity in a Railroad
Man's Job." Mr. Waterman has

of limes at different railroad
points and it has always proven
a great success and has proved
of much benefit to all who have
heard it, and the citizens hen are
to tie congratulated upon having
the privilege of hearing this
gentleman and his pleasing ad
dress. The exact date for the
lecture has not been set.
MANSPEAKER TEAM HAS A
LIVELY RUNAWAY YESTERDAY
Has Very Fine Alfalfa.
From Wednesday's Dally.
County Surveyor Fred Patter
son yesterday brought in from
his farm near Rock Bluffs a bunch
of alfalfa which is 35 inches in
height and the Held from which it
was taken has a splendid stand of
this valuable hay, which will
make a big crop. The specimen
of alfalfa is one of the llnest we
have seen and a field like this will
turn out lots of valuable hay.
From Wednesday's Dally.
Yesterday afternoon while Prof.
Lee, a spectacle man from Oma
ha, was out in the country about
eight miles south of this city,
driving one of the teams belong
ing to the M. E. Manspeaker barn,
he had occasion to go into a farm
house to sell some glasses, and
when he returned the team was
not there, but their trail was easy
to follow, as pieces of the buggy-
were scattered for two miles
along (tie road. The team was
stopped by Mrs. Will Weherbein
near Murray and held at her home
until a man from the livery
stable could go out and bring
I hem in. The buggy was com
pletely wrecked and the harness
torn almost to pieces. It is sup
posed I hot they were left un
hitched and becoming frightened
at something proceeded to move
on leaving pieces of the buggy
along the road. The top of tha
buggy was found nearly two miles
from where the horses were stop
ped.
Misses Matilda and Fredonia
(ttiellhorst, two talented young
ladies from Cass county, Ne
braska, graduated with high
honors at McPherson college, Mc
pherson, Kansas, May 23, 11)13.
They have spent the past two
years in that institution doing
some excellent work in the class
room, also very good work in
public.
Miss Fredonia compelled the
piano and vocal music courses
She ha san unusually beautiful
voice, infinitely sweet and mellow,
which responds to the emotions
of her selections. Competent
judges agree that she has a future
as well as a fortune wrapped up
in her voice, which is a high
soprano. She graduated with the
highest honors in her class
Thoes who attended the programs
during the commencement week
were very fortunate in hearing
her. She will teach vocal music
during the summer and return to
the college in the fall.
Miss Matilda also llnisneu in
music. She has a mezzo-soprano
voice. She has done excellent
solo work in the past year, but
her best work is in experssion
She graduated in the expression
class of fifteen young men and
women and all who saw the work
of the class agree that she did
the best work without a shadow
of doubt. She is also one of the
best readers that has ever ap
peared before an audience in Mc
pherson, and with her very pleas
ing personality and ease of speak
ing has complete control over her
hearers. The constant demand
for her selections for public pro
grams proves the popularity and
worth of her readings. The col
lege and city deeply regret that
she must so soon leave the
locality in which she has display
ed her unusual talents so ef
fectively, but congratulate what-
