DEER AT WASASH
A loose

been seen near Wabash by
of farmers and where the
animal, which appeared domesticat
ed, came from is a matter of conjec
ture. The d'er or antelope that once
might have roamed over the Nebras
ka country have practically Ions
since disappeared and the animal seen
at Wabash is doubtless one that has
trade its escape from some park in
this portion of the state. The Lin
coln park keepers have checked up
i their stock of deer to ascertain if
any were missing, but failed to find
'any absent from the herd.

CITY GOVERN-
i5
HAS NEW
POLICE FORGE
ENTIRE NEW PERSONNEL ADE
QUATE TO DEAL WITH THE
STRIKE CONDITIONS.
Ftom Tuesday s Dally.
Today marked a firm and definite
st md by the government of the city
of I'lattsmouth in favor oi a policy
1 1 1; at would be more adequately lit-;
ted to deal with the situations that
have arisen in the last lew weeks. '
and to check which there has been1
a strong demand heard in the com-'
:nui. ity. j
I'nder the policy announced by
the mayor in his proclaim; tion to the
public there is one. and one motive
! tsnly, back of this move, and that is
to see that justice, firm and impar-;
!tial. be administered by the muchin-j
j erv of the citv government and that'
! the
; the
laws of the state and city and
protection of its people will be
strictly looked after an 1 enforced
to the letter regardless of whom the
I violator:; may be or the circumstances
' of tiie case.
To see that the policy is given
the fullest opportunity to work out
a settlement of the- frequent minor
troubles that have- occurred here
and which tin illy culminated in the
ooting affray last Wednesday nisiht
there' has hi t n a sweeping change
made in the police administration
that has eliminated members of
the old force and reptaced them with
a larger and more effective body
'that liavo received their instruction
; to see that the law is absolutely en
i forced in every case that conies to
! their attention, regardless jf who the
j violator of tiie law may be.
As the first step in the organiza
tion of the municipal police, there
MENT
Cap well, ?ll'.jhas been called to the luuii ot tne
torce llarr:.-(;n L. Uayer. lorn.er cap
tain of infantry, i . ts. army, una
who saw a loim and dist inuuislied
rervice for his countrv in I-'rance and
has now been persuaded to make an
. other sacrifice in civil life , and ue
Ivote his time for the present to the
j settlement of the questions that have
'pressed very heavily on Plattsmouth
land its peoole during the past few-
months. Mr. Gayer is well qualified:
by executive experience for this po
sition and comes to this city to un
dertake this work absolutely free- cf
any prtjudice in the strike situation
and is holding no brief or interest
in either the iturl ington railroad or
tiie striking ihopi.'.cn and lias sworn :
to enforce the law and instruct his
fejrc-e- to do so it gar iless of who or
what may b a u'e ted by this oder.
To a-ist Cafetain (layer. lJurwoo.
Lvn
l'::icri. ah') a. former se-rv-
i: e- man.
urging I
forts in
has been called in and after
;as decided to lend his tf
niukiug the city the kind oi
a place v. e a!! want it to h free
from dangers or
even more serio:
the possildlities of
as troulde- than v.--fore.
Mr. Lyn I- is
cf our people' ati'i is
well worth v f the
have had he? .-te
known to many
a voting man
trust and confidence of the public
and will perform his duty as faith
fully here as he did in th.e time of
greater stress in the world war.
The force organized to take over
the police work of the city w ill n
brace thirtv men or more and will
make an effective and determined ef
fort to see that the law is enforced
in all parts of the city at any and
all titties and that those who fail to
keep the peace will receive the pun
ishment they deserve.
One of the things that will be de
manded and expected is that any
resident of the city can walk the
r.treets free and unmolested by word
or action cn tiie part of any other
person, at any time they desire, ami
conduct themselves in an orderly
manner. Another matter that will
be enforced is the carrying of fire
arms, which is in violation of law
unless permission is given by the
perform j duly constituted authorities and vio
in holy'lators of this law will be punished
for their offences to the full let'er
of the law.
This solution ' of the problem of
protection in tiiis city will undoubt
edly be a success an l should be hail
ed by every citizen with pleasure, as
it is the work timl effort of Mayor
Johnson and City Attorney Rawls.
and the citizens are urged to see that
the laws are rigidly enforced and
which if given the ernest support
that it should have, will relieve a
situation that has been rapidly drift
ing into a condition where the arm
ed authority of the state would have!
to be called in. and in a short time,
too from all indications. j
The big fact that wants to be im
pressed at this time is that the new
organization is not for the benefit f
any corporation or person, but for
the general protection and welfare of
the city and any man or woman. '
whether striker. Burlington emplove
or person outside of either of these
(two elements, who does anything that
iwill tend to be a breach of the peace,
'will have to face the music, and we!
I believe that this is w hat the com
munity needs and wants fair and
impartial justice to all.

fire You Racing With Fate?
Some people spend most of their
lives in a Hfe-and-death race with a pur
suing army of debts.
Such a race can be avoided by a
little foresigfiht. For instance, part of
your crop money can be laid aside each
year in a fund to pay off loans as they
come due.
The First National Bank's Certifi
cates of Deposit will help you build up
such a fund. They draw interest at the
rate of 4 for six or twelve months, and
are always worth their full face value.
