they were very pleasant
neighbors.
We are sorry to learn that Mr.
M. II. Hathaway, formerly con
nected with this paper, now of
Seward, while riding with an
other gentleman near 'that place,
was somewhat injured by the
horse backing off a bridge some
fifteen feet high. No bones were
broken, however.
Our old friendand townsman
here, M. II. Hathaway, has sued
the county of Seward for 1,000
damages because of an imperfect
bridge, and the two other men
who were dumped off the bridge
with him have each sued for
out). Hathaway was very serious
ly injured, and is likely to be
more or less of a cripple for life,
in consequence. In all probability
they will win their suits, and as
the Seward Reporter says, this
amount would build several good,
safe bridges.
In speaking of the Trunk road,
the Nebraska Citv News says: "A
connection with Plattsmouth
of no particular importance to
us; and any attempt to secure
bonds either in Cass or Otoe for
such river bank line would be
futile."
If some young newspaper
fled? ling had written the above
we should not wonder, but we are
informed that the News' men are
old Nebraskans, and how any
man who has sense and has
watched the effect of railroads on
his state can pen such nonsense
beyond our comprehension. If
this Trunk road had been built
years ago, towns and villages
would have sprung up on the Ne
braska side of the river, and
wealth and prosperity centered.
The A. & N. would never have
een built, and probably the M. P.

YOU'LL probably buy some clothes
this Fall; and like a sensible
man, you want as big value for your money as pos

that looks pretty good when it's new, and sold at a
temptingly low price. It won't pay you.
