RESIDENTS OF HIGH SCHOOL
HILL ANNOYED BY ROWDIES
The residents in the vicinity of the
high school prounds have complained
a preat deal of late of the annoj-ance
of persons who congregate there at
riht and indulge in concerts that
are not only lacking in harmony
from a musical standpoint but the
songs are not always as select as
they might be and the neighbors are
sometimes shocked at some of the out
breaks. It would be a good thing if
the parties who are in the habit of
gathering at the school grounds
'Aould lav off of the musical stunts as
it is likely to result in their arrest ar
the police have been notified of the
matter and will be on the lookout
hereafter for the nightly concerts.
ISSUES MARRIAGE LICENSE.
County Judge Allen J. Beeson is
sued a marriage license this morning
to Mr. Hall A. Pollard and Miss Vio
let St. John, both of Nehawka. The
young people are among the most
popular residents in that section of the
county and belong to two of the most
prominent families in the county. Mr.
Pollard is a son of Malcolm H. Pol
lard, while Miss St. John is a daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. C. D. St. John.
The young people will be married
Wednesday at Nehawka.
Judge A'. G: Wray, of York, One of
Ihe Moose Leaders in Nebraska,
I-'avors President Wilson
and Tells Why. ,
Judge Arthur CI. Wray, of York
Neb., one of the original signers of
the call for a progressive convention
four years ago, and a member of the
resolutions committee of that conven
tion, favors the re-election of Wood
row Wilson to the presidency in pref
erence to Mr. Hughes.
Judge Wrnv withheld his verdict
until he had heard both Wilson and
Hughes speak in Nebraska. After
hearing Mr. Hughes at York Satur
day, he decided in favor of the presi
dent.
Judge Wray was county judge of
York county for seven years. He is
one of the most active and influential
progressives in the state. His sincer
ity in politics is recognized by all of
his associates.
The statement issued by Judge
Wray yesterday is in the nature of a
judicial decision. The verdict in favor
of President Wilson is returned in
thirteen' counts.
Judge W ray's statement follows:
After hearing both President Wil
son and Mr. Hughes in Nebraska, and
after conscientious consideration, I
have concluded, as a progressive, to
favor the re-election of President Wil
son and the election of John M. Parker
of Louisiana, the progressive candi
date for vice president.
Progressive Platform Fulfilled.
Under the president's leadership
many of the planks of the progressive
national platform of 1912 have been
crvstallized into law.
His foreign policy, in one of the
most trying times in our national life,
has kept the country at peace with the
world. He has achieved a notable vic
tory without war and bloodshed, and
definite steps toward social and in
dustrial justice in this country have
been taken during his administration.
The considerations which have led
to my conclusion may be summarized
is .follows: '
First The appointment of Justice
Brandeis, George Rublee, and Justice
Clarke appeal strongly To all forwaic!
ooking cit'zens.
Second A new system of federal
taxation has been devised and the
declaration in the progressive national
platform of li12 for an Income and
nheritance tax is now the law of the
and.
Tariff Revised Downward.
Third The tariff has been revised
downward as promised by the repub-

"There are no desirable buildings vacant anywhere in the business sec
tion of the city."
IN NORTH DAKOTA, UNDER PROHIBITION :
"Drunkenness, profanity and obscene language are no more heard in
public places. Poverty is well nigh banished."
GOVERNOR TOM C. RYE, OF TENNESSEE, SAYS:
"Drunkenness upon highways, streets, railroads, and other places with
accompanying profanity and obscenity has practically disappeared."
GOVERNOR LOCKE CRAIG, OF NORTH CAROLINA, SAYS:
"The benefits accruing to the state of North Carolina because of pro
hibition have been very great and are continually increasing. Since prohi
bition was enacted in 1908 twenty-one more children out of every one hundred
of school age have enrolled and twenty-one more children out of every one
hundred of school age have actually been at school each day. The school
fund of the state has increased more than 8." per cent.
"The capital stock of state chartered banks has increased about fifty
per cent. The deposits in the same banks have increased 100 per cent. The
stock building and loan association has increased in value more than 250 per
cent."

Plattsmouth Prosperity League.
J
licans in and by the democrats
in 1012. Steps along lines indicated
in the progressive national platform
of 1912 have been taken to eliminate
the tariff from politics through a non
partisan tariff commission.
Fourth The new federal reserve
act is a credit to the legislative pro
gram of any nation, and popular con
trol of the finances of the country has
been secured and retained.
Fifth The new federal trade com
mission is in line with the principles
outlined in the progressive national
platform of H12, and business men
today enjoy the greatest prosperity in
the history of the country.
Farmers Prosper.
Sixth Farmers have prospered un
der Wood row Wilson's administration.
The right of farmers to organize has
been established and the new rural
credits law will be of great service
to our agricultural population.
Seventh Labor also has been recog
nized. The Clayton act takes account
of the human element in industry and
makes clear the fact that labor is not
a commodity to be bought and sold
in the market place. Labor organiza
tions have been withheld from the
provisions of the Sherman act, and in
junction relief granted. The eight-
hour law for railway employes and
the eight-hour legislation for the wom
en of the District of Columbia are
mportant steps toward the desired re
form of an eight-hour day for labor,
and are directly in line with the pro
gressive national platform of 1012.
Steps for Social Justice.
The child labor law, employers' bu
reau, and seaman s act an indicate a
willingness to take definite steps to
ward social and industrial justice and
should have the support of all pro
gressive citizens.
Eighth Again, the shipping bill,
Alaskan railway, physical valuation
of the railroads are highly pleasing
to progressives. They indicate a de
cision to free the transportation of
the country and make experiments
ooking toward government ownership.
Ninth As to equal suffrage, the
president's position1 is satisfactory to
Dr. Anna Shaw, Carrie Chapman
Catt, Jane Adams and Ella Flagg
Young, who are supporting his re-election.
He made a special trip to New
Jersey to vote for the suffrage amend
ment. His declaration before the At
lantic convention enlists him in behalf
of this great reform.
Force Not Used in Mexico.
Tenth The Mexican situation can
not be divorced from the whole South
American problem. ; Our 'r relation to
the republics of the western hemi-
i)here is now of vital concern. Any
move toward forceable intervention
in Mexico would undoubtedly compli
cate the whole situation and create
fear and distrust where peace and
friendly relations are of supreme im
portance. The downtrodden masses
of Mexico, due in many instances to
American greed, need the help and as
sistance of the people of the United
States in this crisis in their affairs,
and the doctrine of force in these
new relations sister republics should
give way to arbitration and co-op-crption.
Prevented 31ilitarism.
E'eventh President Wilson makes
a strong appeal on the issue of peace
and war. True, large expenditures
for the army and navy have been
made, and the arnpy was ordered to
the border, but by so doing he has
in a measure, at least, backfired
against the spread of the war issues
in this country, and has prevented the
program of the militarist for complete
preparedness and universal military
sei'vice from being carried out.
Twelfth He has won the greatest
diplomatic victory of the age and has
established his position without war
and bloodshed. He has demonstrated
that he may be safely trusted with
the final settlement of the issue.
Preparing for Future,'
Thirteenth He is making prepara
tions for the long future, and. is for
mulating a program .looking to inter
national co-operation and a league of
rations. The new world political or
ganization means that no nation may
hereafter -wilfully disturb the peace
of the world without-first submitting
its grievances to the deliberate judg
ment of civilized men.
To th : splendid record of peace,
prosperity, progress and new worn
relations, I, as a progressive, sub
scribe and favor the re-election of th
great president who has made it pos

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, aa they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by, a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to Its normal condition, bearing
will b destroyed forever. Many cases cf
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the- blood on the mucous surfaces of the
eystem. '
