Only two mini; days remain until Hie citv will be thesrene f the gathering of the Oermans if Cass county, and this section of the stater.dnd especial efforts should be put forth by the resi dents of this city to show them a line time. Every business houe in the city should shine forth with the colors of the Fath erland, red, white and black, and thoe of the greatest, republic the sun ever shone on the red, white and bue'of the United State This recognition is duo the hart! work that the . committee in charge has been to make the eel ebration a success, and there should be no hanging back in giving these worthy flcrinan cit zens the recognition they so well deserve, for their efforts to bring to this city a gathering of this kind. The celebration of Ger man day in our. state capital stalled with a beginning as hum ble as our own and today it is one of the leading attractions of its kind in the state and all this has been accomplished by good hard work on the part of their citizens, irrespective of; nation ality, and the same can be done here if each year the people get together and boost and work for the success of the celebration The committee has arranged a program pleasing i to: everyone. and there is not a feature on it that will not appeal to the gen eral public whether German or any other nationality. The com mittee has been particularly for tunate in securing the services of T. H. Reese of Omaha, tlu greatest German musician in the west, to have the direction of the .concert to be given during the celebration here, and the pro gram prepared is certainly a splendid one, and a rare musical treat for those who love to hear excellent music. The speeches to be delivered by Messrs Mat thew Gering and Otto Kinder of Omaha, in English and German,' will be both intellectual treats and well worth hearing. These will be delivered at the German Home on Sunday afternoon, Oc tober 19. W. 1. SMITH DOING NICELY IN MISSOURI We are in receipt of a letter from Mr. W. T. Smith, formerly of this eity,J but now located at Amazonia, Mo., in .which he states that he has a desire and longing to hear of the people of old Plattsmouth, and encloses subscription money for the Plattsmouth Journal as he knows the Journal gives the news in detail. He further states that he has become a full-fledged Mis sourian; that the paw-paws are ripe now and that they call them Missouri bananas. He says the opossums are plenty, fat and nice but failed to raise the sweet potatoes on acount of the dry weather, which would have com pleted the feast in this part of Missouri, that is for a naturaliz ed citizen of that locality. He further states that Messrs. Newell and Stewart are doing a great business there at their stone quarry and that the Judge visits them once a month and that they love to see the old gentleman coming. Stole Ten Gallon Jar. Sometime ago parties visited the home of Leonard Born in the northwest part of the city, and took a large ten-galon jar that Mr. Born has used for several years to store his winter's sup ply of kraut in. The loss of the jar was quite annoying -to Mr. Born but as the party who took it left the lid they can have the same by calling for it, or if they return the jar will receive that gentleman's most ; heartfelt thanks. Henry A. Johnston, a business man of L'Anse, ' Mich., writes: "For years, Foley's . Honey and Tar Compound for coughs and colds has been our family medi cine. We give it to our children, who like it on . account of its pleasant taste. It is a safe cure for coughs and colds." It con tains no opiates. For sale by all druggist 9. Visits Glenwood.

This May 8 AVE A LIFE, 8end It Horn TO FILL THE DISTRICT JUDGSHIP Governor Morehead Will Study The Matter Over Very Thoroughly. That the district, judgeship in this district made vacant by the death of Judge Travis creating much interest is evidenced by the following from the Omaha Bee of this morning: Tt is evident tha'. Governor Morehead is going to be compell ed to do some deep thinking be fore he linally reaches a con clusion in the appointment of a district judge for the Second ju dicial district to till the vacancy caused by the death of Judge Travis of Plattsmouth. Delegations of democrats and republicans from Plattsmouth called on the givernor last week urging the appointment, of l. 0. Dwyer of that city. These dele gations contained such men a Matt Gering, W.

Leyda and Postmaster Henry Schneider, all of Platts month, called on the governor and threw a few'tacks, pieces of broken glass, etc., in the track of Dwyer's machine, seem to favor any date, but simply Dwyer. Soon after they delegation came In They did not other eandi opposed lo were gone a from Otoe county, hailing from Cilv and towns in that Nebraska vicinity. They favored the apojnlment of D. W. Livingston of Nebraska City. This makes three candi dates from Nebraska City for the appointment, but so far Sarpy county, the other county in the district, has not appeared with a candidate, although the statute of limitation has not expired and it is yet possible to come forward with a Sarpy county man before the gavel falls.

IN PLATTSMOUTH FORTY YEARS AGO Items of Interest to Old and New Residents of City Which Were New Forty Years Ago. Little Mac, the editor of the Watchman, comes borne from Chicago a continued temperance man; he now proposes a joint tour with ourselves; both of us to visit our new "forties" out west, ami to deliver temperance lectures bv the way. Mr. Chilson and Mr. Shipman, both good farmers of Cass coun ty, called on the Herald last week. Mr. Shipman is master of Prairie Grange. Mr. J. J. Patterson Bluffs has bought the common sized hen of of Rock Marquctt the white persuasion so he said. We think she suasion. was of the west per- Letter From Wit. Pleasant. Editor Herald: This usually live community has been un usually lively on the subject of temperance .inee the general crusade began. We have bad a Templars' lodge here since 18GG, and while every other lodge in th county has gone down, this is and has been as lively as ever. We have bad temperance sermons, temperance concerts, temperance prayer meetings and last Sunday night, under the auspices of the Ladies' Temper ance society, we had a live tem perance mass meeting. Rev. G li. Crippin (who by the way is a poet) opened the exercises of the evening by general remarks on the' subject, and by a startling array, of statistics, which gen erally are very dry, but which, under the learned gentleman's management were very interest ing. Bro. Winslow (everybody knows him) followed in a thrill place anil will move to town very short lv. The more we have of such men the better. Come along, boys, there's room enough for all. Mr. W est lays an egg on our table which measures, in cir cumferenee longitudinally, seven and three-eighth inches; lit tqdinally, 5 and thirteen-sixteenth inches, and weighs three and one-half ounces. The origin al proprietor of the egp: was a ing account of personal recollec tions of the evils of inteinper ance. He usually does well, but this time he did better. W. A. Folden was next called on, and gave one of the very best talks of the evening. G. A. Hobson, esq., made the next speech, and though he is a very-young man, I have listened to worse speeches in high places. During the even ing two original temperance essays were read by Miss Kate Winslow, and aside from the reading, which was very line, they were really tbe best essays I have ever heard read. The writer was the charming read er herself, and S. A. Davis; and Mr. TipTop when you want good essays written, call on mem Take the meeting altogether, it was one of the pleasanlest of the season. There is a strong tem . . . . . perance reeling here, and if a temperance ticket was put in the Held this fall it would get at least 200 votes in this part of the county. Reporter. Tomorrow evening some of the young people of Plattsmouth give an entertainment at Fitzgerald's hall for the benefit of the High school organ fund. A short and very amusing piece, called ine Spirit of '70," in which is rep resented the supposed status and position of men and women under the new dispensation of women's rule," is the principal part of the program. Between the acts and during the evening some very fine instrumental and vocal music will be given. We hope our people will turn out and patronize this exhibition largely, both because of the object, for which it is given, a very laudable one, and also that the young people acting therein have worked verj- hard to pre sent a fine picture of real im aginary life to their audience. ISO one who has not tried these things knows how much labor and hard work one of these lit tle plays cost to the performers, and as it is a pure gift from them especially for the benefit of the children now and always at the High school, it should be freely and largely attended.

Thy can also come from Omaha here and return the same day; and ve can now visit our capital and re turn lo sleep. a great accom modation. Along the emigrant wagons last week were two whose covers must have been made from some banners or canvass used duriny the late election. One of them had fi-R-A-N-T in such letters that the tail of the G hung over the side board, while the lop of the T would reach down lo the wheel on the other side. The other wagon had Wilson in the same gigantic characters. We're glad to see tnem taking the right kind of politics with them. This ils to give timely warning to all parents living in the City of Plattsmouth, who have boys running the streets of this city; carrying with them rubber sling shots, and using the same as heretofore, to the injury of per sons and public property, that the parents of such boys will be held responsible for such crimes or offences as may be committed Pi I t iiwm i a rails fM om n - - i mi Exact Copy of Wrapper. oimtauk ot. o c,Ty I ,, -m WRITE FC BOOK ON PILES AND RECTAL DISEASES WITH TESTIMONIALS DR..

Editor Herald Dear Sir: It be ing rainy today, and nothing do ing in trade, I thought best to let you know that we are not all drowned, although there is not a bridge left, on either of the Ce dar Creeks in Louisville, and all streams have met with the same fate. I will tell you something about the town of Louisville and its. prospects. It is growing some. We have one dry goods store, one boarding and beer house combined, one grocery the strength of sod corn one lumber yard and hardware com bined one doctor, blackksmith, etc., etc., and all seem to be doing a good business. We shall soon have a good schoolhouse and church; we have conversed with parties from Illinois who say that there will be a large emigra tion to this part during the sea son, and all say that Nebraska is the best farming country they have, yet traveled through. Let. them come, there's room. We need a good harness maker and shoe maker here they could do well at these trades. The farm ers have most of their corn plant ed, and what is not up will prob ably rot in the ground, if it con tinues raining. We all neglected to cover our corn cribs, and will no doubt, pay dearly for so do ing. Kmil Padke, a former resident of this city, but now located at Tacoma, Washington, is in the city making a short visit with old friends. Mr. Radtke has been in Oklahoma for several weeks en joying a visit with a brother and on his way west, decided to stop off and renew acquaintance with old friends. 1 U UUUUUffu ZAP IK FISTULA Pay When CURED All Rectal Diseases cared without a surgical operation.
