covning thoroughly aroused over tho
aliescd "hard boiled" methods used
by State Deputy Sheriffs Schmitt and
Milton Cuter on a well known auto
dealer of that city a few days aco
en the highway, betweei Platis
mouth and Union.
The case lias attract', d much at
tention in the eastern part of ti.e
state and sentiment at Auburn and
locality, where Luther Grits, tl:
victim" of the attack of the officers,
resides, is strongly in favor of t'.-c
;:uto dealer.
The citizens there joined in a mas
meeting Friday night and passed
resolutions condemning the action of
the state officers in very plain terms
nd a copy of the rerolutions wiU be
placed in the hands of Governor Mc
Kclvic. At the meeting. Gritz told of hav
ing driven to Omaha last Tuesday to
cet Arthur Chuse. a mechanic who
was to go to work for him.
"Whiie we were driving back be
tween Plattsmouth and Union a h'gli
powered car drove up and lour men
got out. I thought it was a hold
up. They shouted they were siat?
agents and before I know what it
was all about, one of the

beating me otr the Lead
butt of his revolver."
Gritz displayed a welt on hi- he?d
as big as a man's fist together with
two gashcsi He said he cftere l t!
officers no resistance whatsoever
and that after they had searched his
car they permitted him to go.
Stste Sheriff Gus Hyers gave the
following version of the affair, after,
he said, he had investigated it: "Af
ter careful investigation, I find my
men were not to blame. The only
trouble the officers had was in sub
duing the man after he had started
to make trouble."
Hyers claimed the officers stepped
Gritz because he was driving an
automobile minus a private license.
Gritz contended that inasmuch as he
is a garageman, he has the right to
drive cars on which are dealers'
licenses.
I!yers said he had instructed Co.
Atty. Cole of this city to file two
charges against Gritz, one for oper
ating a car without a private lice-ns- ,
and another for resisting an officer.
Myers explained that only two of
the four men who. stopped Gritz
were deputies of his; the other two
men were just riding with them. He
did not give their names.
According to A. M. Ingles and
Herman Ernst, of Auburn, who
called the indignation meeting.
Gritz is one cf the most reputable
citizens of the town. They declared
his character has never been ques
tioned. Harry Furlong of Auburn
was selected as chairman of the
meeting.

A Popular-Priced Cord Tire
Without a Rival
"The new Goodyear Cross-Rib Tread Cord Tire is built with
genuine high-grade long-staple cotton, as a foundation
It is liberally oversize the 41-inch tire, for example,
measuring nearly 5 inches.
The deep, clean-cut, cog-like pattern, of its tread affords
excellent traction even in snow and mud, engaging the road
like a cogwheel.
The scientific distribution ofjubber in this tread the wide
center rib and the semi-flat contour gives a thick, broad
surface that is exceedingly slow to wear.
This new tire is a genuine Goodyear through and through
in design, in material, in construction.
It costs less to buy than the net price you are asked to pay for
many "long discount" tires of unknown reputation and value.

NEBRASKA BANKS
GASH RESERVE IS
UNUSUALLY HIGH
Commercial and Saving: Institutions
Have 22 Per Cent Surplus
Law Requires Fifteen.
State commercial and savings
banks of Nebraska show an unusual
Iv high cash reserve more than 22
per cent in their rectnt official re
ports to the state banking bureau,
under date of June 30. The total re
serve held is above $51,000,000, be
ing 516,000,000 in excess of the
legal requirement.
Accompanying this exhibit of fi
nancial strength is a gain of over
$6,000,000 in deposits since the last
previous statements dated March 5.
The June total under that heading
is $233,000,000. Loans grew about a
million dollars from March to June
and stood at $209,000,000 in the lat
ter month.
Trade and Commerce Secretary
Hart looks upon the June showing
as one of the best ever made, so far
a.s reserves are concerned. He is
well satisfied with a moderate in
crease in deposits, coming as it does
in a year marked by national indus
trial disturbances which have held
back the business revival.
The number of banks reporting on
June 30, was 970, being smaller than
before on account of a number of
failures which have occurred. These
banks had 577.978 depositors. The!
'average deposit account was $400.
Aggregate capital, surplus and un- I
divided profits of the 970 banks are
iraore than 140,000,000. I
Last evening Judge William Weber
held an extra inning of his justice
court to consider the matter of the
complaint filed against Sigfried We
deen, 3S32 Castellar street, Gust Ol
son, 3716 Maple street and Alex
Sandquist, 25S4 Evans street, all of
Omaha. The three men were charged
with having made a disturbance
near the farm of George Everett and
James Ervin, near Union, last Sun
day and with having called Mr. Ev
erett a number of unpleasant names
in the course of the argument be
tween the parties.
It seems that the Omaha parties
were down in the southern portion
of Cass county gathering wild grapes
and in the course of their wanderings
came to the farm of Mr. Everett,
where an argument took place over
their presence and the discussion
grew rather warm and Mr. Everett
stated to the court that the remarks
made by the Omaha visitors were of
a nature that did not set well with
him. On the other hand the three
Omaha men denied having cursed
Mr. Everett or having made any un
complimentary remarks toward him.
After hearing the evidence in the
case Judge Weber decided that the
evidence did not warrant holding
the men on the charges preferred
and they were accordingly discharg
ed from the custody of the court and
returned to their homes in the metropolis.
