CASS COUNTY FAIR
AT WEEPING WA
TER GREAT SUCCESS
Present Year's Exhibits Prove the
Greatest Yet Large Crowds
Attend Every Day.
From Saturday's Pally
During the entire session of tho
Cass countv fair at Weeping Water
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of j
this week, large crowds were in at-j
tendance daily. The fair was favored
with jrood roads and promising woa-,
thtr for all hut the closing hours on
Friday, and the opportunity for at
tending was excellent for farmers
am! town folks alike, so it was not
unusual that the people took ad
vantage of the occasion and came in
tens, hundreds and thousands to
view the exhibits and mingle with
one another in wholehearted enjoy
ment. "
The stock exhibit tills year was
excellent, both in hogs and cattle,
and the poultry department was also
well represented. The exhibits of
fruit and vegetables were pleiitious.
with very pood showings in each of
these lines.
The corn, wheat, oats and other
products of the farm were of a high
quality and Mich as could well grace
ev n the state fair itself, anil why
not, for they come from tne very
garden spot of the west Cass coun
ty, Nebraska.
The work of the schools proved one
of the finest things the exhibition
had to oaer and showed what the
young people of the county are do
ing and how they are progressing in j
knowledge under the able direction!
of our well r .'.id, happy and content
ed teachers. It is always pleasing to
see such a line demonstration.
The government had an exhibition
of its research work, a unique illus
tration of whirh was the growth of
water cher. a plant which has been
found very valuable for fertilizing
and building up the soil, and the use
of which is highly recommended.
Other valuable ideas were gained
from this valuable exhibit.
The amusement s.cio of the enter
prise w;.s lully up to the standard
of past years and the welfare of the
visitors received consideration of the
good people of Weeping Water, who

This bing a political year, no fair
could be considered complete with
out the opportunity of hearing both
Ides of the political argument, and
for this purpose two very able speak
ers were secured in the persons of
the democratic and republican can
didates for congress from the First
Nebraska district. On Thursday
Congressman John H. Morohead. t!ie
present incumbent, was present and
addressed the large crowd on the
deiiioeratie issues of the campaign,
and enjoyed as well the opportunity
of meeting many of his friends and
supporters. On Friday R. II. Thorpe,

From Saturday's Paily
Wednesday afternoon of this week
p. '-.out 3:1". o'clock this quiet little
villa.-'.e was suddenly aroused when
the word was rapidly flashed around
the town that the United Brethren
parsonage was cn fire. By the time
the vreater number of the fire fight

flames had been quenched by Rev.
Hewitt and neighbors.

'ON THE CORNER
PEOPLE OF MURRAY
WANT TO ISSUE
BONDS FOR ROADS
Proposition of Voting $9,000 In
Bonds for Graveling Five Miles
cf Roads Will be Asked.
From Saturday's Daily
The good roads boosters of Mur
ray and vicinity who are desirious
of having the Red Ball highway
made one of the best in the county
are now planning to ask the voters
of West Rock Bluffs precinct to vote
on the proposition of the Issuance of
$9.0(H in bonds for the graveling of
five miles of roadway in that pre
cinct, starting at the federal high
way corner and running west one
mile to the town of Murray where
the, street is already graveled and
thence taking up several miles west
of that place over sections of the
road that have been quite difficult
of travel in the past.
This morning Kverett Spangler.
president of the Community club of
Murray, was here to look up the
assessed valuation of the precinct
with the view of securing the sub
mission or the proposition to the
voters.
The question of voting the bonds
will be submitted at the general

little doubt that the necessary sign
ars to the petition can be secured.
This is the second move in the i
county to have bonds issued for j
graveling roads, as Stove Creek lire-
cinct has petitioned for the sub- j
mission of the proposed bond issue
of $ls,rou to gravel tne roaus tnru

HIGH WINS FROM
WEEPING WATER
Official Score 6 to 0 But Blue
White Get Raw Decisions
From Referee.
and
From Saturday's Pailv
The Plattsmouth high school foot
ball team yesterday afternoon was
the victor over the Weeping Water
high school team, the score at the
c!ose of the game being (i to 0 and
from the decisions of the referee in
the game the boys feel lucky in get
ting this much from the wreckage.
Twice the blue and white carried
the ball over for touchdowns hut
both times they suffered penalties
fir resisting rough tactics on the
pnrt of the Weeping Water team and
as tho result the final result was de
ferred although t'.ip outcome of the
game was clear to forecast in the
sneedier work of Coach Rothert's
eleven.
In speaking of the game, one of
t'.ie visitors who had w.mdcrcd over
to see a part of the confluf b"twc"n
examinations of the exhibits at the
county fair, stated that it was easy
to trl! what team had the b:'ll, as
when it was Plattsmouth's ball the
ofUcials were moving it back and
vhen Weeping Water had it t lie pig

that's that. '
The Plattsmouth touchdown that
the referee counted w:is made when
Krejci. the fust rjuartcr of tie lo
cals completed a fine forward pass to
Lnmlurt who carried the brill to the
Weeping Water 15-yard lin; from
where Krejci with k great end run
tore down the defence- ef the Weep
ing Water team and planted the ball
ov. r the line for the needed secre.
In the try for goal the efforts of the ,
Plattsmouth team were blocked by
the speedy work of their opponents
and they failed of the extra point.

HAMILTON
COMING
LEWIS
TO NEBRASKA
J. Hamilton Lewis of Chicago,
former United States senator from
Illinois, will come to Nebraska for
two or more speeches on October
3 and 4, according to advice re
ceived by Stnte Chairman Allen
from national headquarters. Mr.
Lewis is one of the country's lead
ing orators. In the senate he was
a picturesque character, owcing in
part to his- long and flowing beard:
but home time ago he parted with
his whiskers and Nebraskans will
see him smooth-shaven.
Senator Pat Harrison of Missis
sippi, whose assistance was sought
in the Nebraska campaign, will not
be able to come here as his time
is filled with engagements in other
parts of the country.
SAYS LAND LOST MONEY
Herman L Specht has a new-fan
gled kind of damage suit tnat a e.as
county district judge thought so
little of that he instructed the jury
I
' to trive a verdict lor tne ueienuam.3.
j Now, Mr. Ppeeht files an appeal to
i Cuc out what the supreme court
thillks about it. He says that back
in if,20, when the land boom was on
1 j e contracted to buy land of Mary
( c xeVlon and her husband for $00.-
! (KM), but that because of defects in
It ho title he was not promptly fur-
J uished, as agreed, with an ansirace
and proper deed. As a result ne iosl
the sale of the land to a neighbor
at a figure that would have netted
him
a nice profit.
Ho. therefore, sued for the $&.lou
'depreciation in the value of the prop
lerty that has since occurred. Lin
