We felt sorry for "Sootty
Wednesday. Be looked so down-
learled since Powers and Foster
iave left him. With the amount
of shipping done at the Murray
station it is outrageous to ask
any one man to do the work. The
people of Murray propose to
petition the superintendent to
place at least one of them back
again. 'And this should be done
without further delay.
While attending the show of
Mutt and JefT" at the Parmele
theater Tuesday night, one, of
our well known citizens had the
penants stolen from his car. The
authorities of Plattsmouth. must
take some measure to protect the
property of people, from out of

from this section. Why any dirty
whelp should pilfer such things
we are unable to fathom.

William Patterson, living on
the Husterholtz place, north of
