PLUGGED SEWER
CAUSES OVER
FLOW OF WATER
City Storm Sewer on Washington
Avenue Rendered Practically
Useless in Great Storm.
From Thursday's Daily
A small thing
may cause a great
deal
of xlamage
and this was shown
during the cloudburst here this ,
morning when the wasningion
nue sewer was practically useless by
the fact that it was plugged up by
a laree stumo that was washed in
there several days ago and
wnicn j
with the small debris that banked
against it, made the sewer almost
useless to carry off any of the great
amount of flood water tnat was
pouring down from the hills and
which forced the water out over the
adjoining property and into the main
part of town.
The stump had lodged near the
O. K. garage building and checked
the water getting any further and
even this morning in the second
small rain, caused the sewer to over
flow again. The water reaching the
stumD. shot up through the surface
intake to the height of several feetl
and also backed up the water at the
opening of the sewer at 10th street.
Had the waterway been open as it
should have been there is no doubt
that there would not have been the
serious losses on the north side that
were experienced as the result of the
flood.
These stumps, trees and other ob
jects that are thrown or wash into
the creek contribute more than any
thing else to the overflowing of the
sewers and if necessary one man
should be detailed to see that the
creeks are kept clear at all times and
the sewers in active operation if the
property owners in that, locality are
to be protected from the dangers of
overflowing water.
The very narrow escape that came
to this city of an almost complete
damage of the property in the busi
ness section should be a warning to
play safe in the season of heavy
rains by taking the precautions that
ordinary good judgment should dic
tate. The creeks must be kept clear at
all times, even if this has to be a
special duty of some of the street
cleaning department, the open grat
ings and cellar windows along Main
street must have concrete water
walls placed around them or be clos
ed up entirely and the property own-(
ers wno nave laneu iu inace- muuh
flood walls along the alley ways
should do so.
The experiences of the past should
have taught the residents anei city
officials that it is better to be safe
than sorry anel they should lose no
time in getting busy in making ade
quate flood protection.-Another mat
ter that' should be given attention is
the- wholly inadequate inlets to the
new sewers along Sixth street where
there should be openings for half a
block instead of the present small
weed and grass catchers that do not
carry off the flood waters.
Interesting Copy of News
paper Edited by the Ladies
Mrs. C. E. Wescott, who is visit
ing here with her sons, has among
her treasureel belongings a newspa
per that is of much interest and at
the time of its issue, October 8th,
ISO", attracted a great deal of at
tention in this city. This is a copy
of the Evening News, a daily paper
published in Plattsmouth at that
time, and the chief interest in the
edition is the fact that the edition
was written and edited by the ladies
of Plattsmouth.
The paper was at that time owned
and operated by the Polk Brothers,
who graciously took a vacation as
far as the editorial wofk of the pa
per was concerned for the day and
left the work of preparing the edi
tion in the hanels of the ladies.
M.rs. Kate W. Davis, now a resi
dent of Lincoln, was the editor of
the paper, while Miss Carrie L. Hol
loway, who was then deputy for her
brother, Harvey Holloway, in the
county sheriff s office, was the assist
ant editor. Mrs. Fred Lehnhoff and
Mrs. Frank Morgan were in charge
of the advertising department, and
Mrs. Margaret Mauzy was the treas
urer of the organization. The ladies
had the city arranged in wards to
care for the circulation, Mrs. Henry
Mauzy, first ward; Mrs. John Lees
ley, second ward; Mrs. I. II. Dunn,
third ward; Mrs. Harry Barthold,
fourth ward and Mrs. A. I. Camp
bell, fifth ward. Of these ladies, Mrs.
Mauzy, Mrs. Uarthold and Mrs. Mor
gan are the only ones who still claim
this city as their home.
The paper had a number of very
interesting and special articles on the
city anel current topics that were
prepared by the ladies, one on the
churches of the city, the various
notes from other towns of the coun
ty which were arranged by the ladies
living in the respective communities,
an article on the V. C. T. U. which
was written hy Mrs. Wescott, and a
poem prepared for the edition by the
late Mrs. Isabel Richey.
While the paper was not featured
by news stories as the present day
newspaper would consider them, the
various articles are very interesting
and the paper quite a treat to look
over, especially to those who are
familiar with the residents of the
city at that time.
ENTERTAINS AT MAH JONG

ONE OF HEAVY LOSERS
From Thursday's vailv I
One of the heaviest losers in the
flood will be Frank R. Gobelman,
the cellar of whose building was
completely filled with water that:
made its way into the building from'
the adjoining cellars. Mr. Gobelman
had a large stock of powdered paint
in barrels in the cellar and all of
this is a comple te loss to him. and

Plan Big Get Together
Meeting Early in July
Another instance of helpful serv
ice in the American Legion will be
thrt of the early part of July, when
i meeting of ex-service men will be
held to give attention to the big job
of tilling out the application blanks
for adjusted compensation. All the
Legion comrades who were company
clerks or know anything about army
paper work will be asked to turn out
for fatigue duty that night. Type
writers enough to handle the job
will be secured and every ex-service
man who e-omes to the meeting, and
brings with him his discharge pap
ers (for reference in establishing
dates only) will receive competent
assistance in making out his applica
tion for the so-called "bonus."
This will be a job, but the ex-
pcrsonneil gang will turn to it with
a smile and determination ami no
matter how many come out to the
meeting, they will be taken care of
wmie a portion ot the ex-service
men are lined up for the trip thru
ine mm, tne others vi.. be en
joying themselves in a separate room
with tales of war time elays. Camels
and perhaps a "come and get it
ieee;, aitnougu that part or the pro
gram hasn't been decided upon as
yet.
At any rate, the assistance in fill
mg out the adjusted compensation
application blanks will be provided
and all are urged to take advantage
of it without cost or obligation of
any kind.
As soon as the past receives its
supply of the "bonus" application
blanks, a date will be set for the
meeting, and every Legion member,
as wcl as those who have enrolled
their names with Comrades Holly,
Dnxbury or Hild, will be notified by
post card of the meeting.
SUPREME COURT SPEEDS
UP ITS WORK A LITTLE
AormiK, Act)., June n. mere is
evidence that the state supreme
court has speeded up since he made
the charge last August in Omaha,
that the court was lagging in its
work, W. E. Bowling, of Madison,
candidate for supreme judge, told
a local luncheon club. Cases are be
ing handled very quickly, he declar
ed.
In his address on the American
judiciary system Mr. Bowling out
lined the court systems and told of
the duties of each court. He then
repeated his statement of last August
that the supreme court of Nebraska
is delaying justice by failing to keep
up with its work. He contends that
while the average district judge in
Nebraska decides some 300 cases a
year. the average supreme court
judge decides but 3 4. The court is
so far behind in its work, he said,
that cases two years old and more
are still undecided.

CHIEF PAYS HIS
TRIBUTE TO COL.
JOS, H. PRESS
Governor Bryan Comments on Loyal
ty and Ability of Late Filing
v Clerk in His Office.
From
Frilny'R Daily
ernor Bryan took occasion
Go'.
Thursday to express his appreciation
of the services of his late chief clerk.
Col. Joseph H. Fresson who died sud
denly in his rooms Wednesday even
ing. The colonel's desk was closed,
but upon it stood a bouquet of pink
roses. He left it Wednesday morn
ing not to return. Inside it was
found a manuscript of a partly com
pleted autobiography that he had
be-en devoting odd moments to in the
last six months. It stopped where he
told of going as a young man to St.
Louis to buy a stock of goods to
start a career as merchant.
Governor Bryan expressed deep
concern over the passing of the
colonel. He said:
"We were all greatly shockeel and
distressed over hi3 sudden passing.
He was in the office yesterday morn
ing as usual when I came in. and
bright and cheerful as always. I was
advised in the evening that his con
dition was not serious, and the mes
sage later on that he had passed
away was a distinct surprise.
"Not only will he be missed as a
member of the office staff and by the
numberless persons he came in con
tact with, but to me it is a great
personal loss. He was not only a
loyal friend but a delightful com
panion. He had been connected with
the office through a number of ad
ministrations, but his ability, di
plomacy and loyalty to each chief
executive whom he served was such
that there are few men with whom
he might bo compared. He had been
identified for so long a time and
felt such a deep interest in and re
sponsibility for his work hat it wili
be many impossible to replace him
"In fact no one lacking his years
of experience, coupled with the abil
ity and interest he possessed, will
be able to serve the state as effi
ciently and loyally as he had done.
Few men are possessed of the qual
ity of loyal service that he gave to
each executive, regardless of the
party to which he belonged I rec
ognized in him such an eificient and
indispensable public servant that he
was the nrst person appointed un
der my administration, and as he
stood in a class by himself no one
else was ever considered for the
place.
"He wa named in recognition of
the Grand Army, whose members
loved and respected him and looked
to him for advice. His death will be
mourned by all who came in contact
with him in the state government
and his many friends throughout the
state. I have cancelled an out-of-town
appointment tomorrow to at
tend his funeral.'
