OLD RESIDENT POORLY
From Wednesday's Daily
Conrad Meisinger, one of the old
time residents of this county and
one of the two surviving Meisinger
brothers of the family that has had
such an important part in the de
velopment of this section of Cass
county, is quite poorly now at his
home in this city. Mr. Meisinger
has been troubled with the dailing of
his eyesight for the past few .years
and it has grown so severe that he
has been troubled with the failing of
fined to his home for the greater
part of the time. His advanced years
also have told on him and caused his
health to gradually fail. Mr. Mei
singer is still in many ways feeling
fine but the loss of his eyesight has
greatly troubled him in the past few
months.

JUDGE BEGLEY SUG
GESTED FOR HIGH
COUTOMMISSION
Presiding Judge of Second District
Strongly Urged By Friends
For Appointment.
From Wednesday s Daily
TTnder the provisions of the new
law passed by the state legislature.
Governor McMullen will be called
upon to appoint a supreme court
commission of six members to serve
for the next two years to assist the
state supreme court in handling the
cases that are accumulating at the
state court, and this fact has brought
forth the names of some of the dis
tinguished members of the bench
and bar of the state for places on the
court commission.
Among the names suggested to
the governor for appointment to the
place on the commission is that of
Judge James T. Begley of the second
judicial district, comprising Cass,
Otoe and Sarpy counties. The name
of the able jurist has beenpresented
to the governor and the members of
the bar throughout the district are
very strong in urging the appoint
ment of the judge.
Governor McMullen. while he has
a large field to chose from, could find
no more available material for this
position than Judge Begley, who has
for the past eleven years served on
the district bench with honor to him
self and the district. The decisions
rf the r!itrirt court have met with
approval at the state court in many
' affirmed cases that attest the wis
dom of the district judge in the cases
that he has passed upon.
Judgo Begley has at several dif
ferent times sat with the supreme
court and in the cases entrusted to
him he has prepared opinions that
showed real Judicial ability and es
tablished important points in law.
The general approval of the court
in this district is seen in the fact
that Judge Begley has in his service
here received several re-elections
without opposition. The members of
the bar have found in him a frank
and fearless Judge and a warm and
congenial gentleman. He is able in
his profession, just in his decisions
and has that happy faculty of keep
ing in touch and meeting the people
of his district. They know him as a
friend and one In whose fairness
they have the utmost confidence.
Should the governor of the state
decide to appoint Judge Begley to
the commission, the court at Lincoln
will receive a very able addition and
one that will reflect upon the corn
minion the greatest credit and give
the supreme court an assistant that
will aid In clearing up the large
number of cases accumulated on the
docket.

Last evening the members of the
Young Men's Bible Class of the
Methodist church held a very inter
esting meeting at their rooms in the
basement of the church and which
was quite largely attended by the
members to take up the matter of
the election of hte offlcers for the en
suing year. The class elected as the
offlcers for the year the following:
President H. F. Cecil.
Vice President J. A. Capwell.
Secretary Roy Perkins.
Assistant Secretary Elmer
Gaineg.
Treasurer Walter Ilerger.
Teacher K. H. Wescott.
Musical Director Mrs. E.
Wescott.
Song, Leader Dr. Oscar Sandln.
The class is observing its nine
teenth anniversary cs it was founded
on April 1, 1906,, and has been one
of the strong and active factors in
the church work of the city since
that time. The members of the class
at the time of its organization made
the excavation beneath the church
building for their class room and
later aided in the clearing out of the
entire basement that is now one of
the most pleasant portions of the
church edifice.
During all of these years Mr. Wes
cott has served as teacher and in his
work of assisting the young men in
their study of the bible has been a
warm friend and associate of all
those who have been enrolled in the
class. While the membership of the
class ha 3 given loyal and whole
hearted support to the teacher, it
has been the splendid work of Mr.
Wescott through the two decades
that has mr.de the class the great
success that It has been.
HAS BOOZE, GETS PINCHED
Prom Wednesday's Dolly
Last evening, Sheriff Carl Ryder
of Otoe county, called Sheriff E. P.
Stewart here and informed him that
M. 13. Fay, a resident of Nebraska
City, was speeding this way on the
evening Missouri Pacific train and
had in his possession two suit case
filled with booze. Sheriff Stewart
and Officer Joe Libershal, as soon as
the message was received, hastened
to the Missouri Pacific station and
when the train arrived boarded it in
search of Mr. Fay. The man was
located, all right, but the amount of
liquor secured wa.s only a pint, but
which was sufficient to cause him to
receive a fine of $100 and costs.
Judge Duxbury gave the offender his
trimmings and in failure to pay the
same, he was sent to the county Jail
to spend the time resting until the
feelings of outraged Justice were sat
isfied. Spring will be here and the
flowers in bloom before William will
again emerge from the confines of
the Jail.

sion of congress, but as lax legisla
tion was not taken up, the publicity
provision still remains part of the
law, and revenue officials here have
all intions of carrying it out.
It was said that the fact that there
are n. number of cases testing the
legality of the statute now before:
the supreme court would in no way
influence the attitude of the internal
revenue bureau in carrying out the
provisions of the law.
The cases now pending are all suits
instituted by the Department of Jus
tice against newspapers who publish
ed the amounts of individual taxes, in
order to test whether the publicity
provision makes publication of the
returns legal. It is thought also that
the court's decision also will throw
light on the question of whether the
statute is constitutional.
One of the chief ills charged
against the publicity is that it ma
terially helped stock swindlers, com
pilers of "sucker lists" and other con
fidence workers.
