Address of Democratic Candidate Is
Greeted by Enthusiastic Re
sponse by Voters.
From Thursday's Daily
Last evening the closing demo
cratic rally of the season saw a large
number of the voters both men and
women assembled at the district court
room to greet Charles W. Bryan, the
democratic candidate for governor
and Col Phil L. Hall the candidate
a resident of Greenwood.
The greeting that the candidates
received and the applause that greet
ed their pleas for an economical state
government and the easing of the tax
burden from the taxpayers, showed
the sentiment of the audience.
Bryan
Judge James T. Begley presided fused to a, the code , aQd d
over the meeting and made a most a wth the expensive system or
able and earnest plea for the pro- government. The legislature had re
gram of better and more efficient malnfd in Besgion for four months
government at less cost which is the before th could must(?r th ,
keynote of the democratic campaign vntpa tn t. ptn - Mr
this year.
Col. Hall was the first speaker and
in presenting his cause to the voters
promised a strict business like ad
ministration of the office of treasurer
if he should be selected for the posi
tion. Col. Hall stated that he would
oppose any measure to increase the
state taxes and levies and would
sponsor any move that might be
brought forward for the reduction of
the taxes.
Mr. Bryan in his opening urged
the voters of Cass county to give their
fellow citizen, Phil Hall, a vote and
expressed the hope that the Green
wood man would be one of the offi
cial family at Lincoln and in his
office a member of the state board of
equalization.
Mr. Bryan stated that one idea
of the proper functioning of the gov
ernment was to prevent small and
highly organized units of the citizen

The great interests that had dom
inated the national government since
1920 had deflated the farmer, had
not only wrecked the financial struc
ture of the west but had added im
mense burdens in the tributes exacted
by law from the common people of
the west.
That the west was suffering from
the disadvantages of being used as
the football of the great interests
was shown in several ways, Mr.
Bryan pointed out that out in Lan
caster county there were 7.000 pieces
of property of the value of $10,000,
000, advertised in delinquent tax
sales because the farmers and small
homeowners were unable to meet. the
excessive tributes that had been
levied upon them. In Morrill county
in one newspaper there were six
pages of these delinquent taxes ad
vertised and which showed tbe con
dition of the affairs of the farmers
of the west.
Mr. Bryan stated that if his state
ments were not correct that he would
gladly withdraw from the ticket.
The record of the men that had
exploited the nation was cne of the
most shameful pages of history and

When the change of the state ad-

state government under Keith Ne

to the governorship the cost of state
government had leaped to $10,000,

ministration.
The first good roads movement
had been started under the Bryan
administration the candidate stater
and 4 70 miles of road were graveled
without increasing the taxes and this
without the gasoline tax that was
used in the last two years in the
McMullen administration to help the
road building program. The fight of

Business Section a
From Thursday's Daily
Omaha's "good will" special train
touring the southeastern coiner of
Nebraska, Thursday and Friday of
this week, arrived in, this,cily pt S-1-",
a. m. today, bringing seventy-five
presidents and sales managers of
Omaha wholesale houses, manufac
turing concerns, banks and other
lines of business for a short visit to
Plattsmouth.
In the two days journey these
business men will visit twenty-three
Nebraska cities and towns for the
purpose of greeting old friends in
these communities, and of widening
their acquaintance with the mer
chants and townspeople of south
eastern Nebraska.
"Omaha business men are not con
tent merely to establish long-distance
correspondence friendships with their
neighbors and customers in Nebraska
and the rest of the big territory for
which Omaha serves as the center."
John F. Barnes, United States Rub
ber company, chairman of the Good
Will Tours committee, declared. "We
want to get away from our offices
and meet our friends, clas?p hands
with them, and establish a personal
contact and acquaintanceship. That
is the reason for our visit to Platts
mouth today. That, we believe, works
to the mutual be nefit of Omaha as
a market center, and to Omaha's
customers, because no other way has
been found to better establish un
derstanding of one another's prob
lems in the wholesale and retail
field."
The Omaha business men, led by
a band of the Frost Battery com
pany, and wearing white hats with
hatbands of the green, red and yel
low of Ak-Sar-Ben, paraded from the
station through the business district

From Thursday's Daiiy
Last evening a stranger giving the
name of H. M. Bruse called at the
Hotel Main and registered for the
night In one of the cozy rooms that
Landlord William Barclay provides
for his guests. The stranger also
asked the night greeter at the hotel,
Francis E. Warren, as to the possi
bilities of getting a bill changed and
was told that it would be all korrect.
whereupon the stranger produced two
500 bills, one of which he tossed to
the clerk to have changed.
The night clerk was unable to

ing from the dazzling sight of the
$500 bill was induced to advance the
man some five smacks that he might
have some pfn money until the bank

ing and permit the changing of th2j
large William into smaller Bills.
Day came and the stranger failed
to returti to the hotel and also to
return the $5 bill that had been
loaned and accordingly the hue and
cry was sent forth for his apprehen
sion and Chief of Police Johnson as
well as Deputy Sheriff Schaus were
both callea upon to search forth the
culprit. The man -rta found and
brought to the efflce of County At

The man when searched and ques

KALIOWE'Ei; PARTY
rYom T1mrdav's ra!1v
The Sunday school choir of the
Presbyterian church had a delight
ful Hallowe'en party at the parlors
of the Presbyterian church last eve
ning. The choir is composed of abou
thirty boys and girls of the Presby
terian Sunday school, under the
leadership of Miss Fossler.
The choir first convened at 7:00
o'clock in the auditorium of the
church, for their regular choir prac
tice of half hour. After this the fun
began. The committee in charge of
the entertainment certainly did its
work well. Talk about spooks, hob
goblins, and blocd curdling events!
They were all there. All entrance?
to the lower rooms were shut off ex
cepting by vpll of a long slide down
the back stairway, in the darkness,
past ghosts, witches and what not.
Two at a time were conducted to the
entrance of the descent, given an
encouraging word by the burly guard
at the entrance, pushed off, and then
screams and wails until the land
ing was made, and the main room
found through a winding library
with all kinds of obstructions. After
a half hour of big thrills, lights were
turned on, and the joy continued
through many games that had been
arranged. At the proper time re
freshments were served to all, in
cluding members of the church choir,
who were Invited as guests of the
Sunday school choir for the refresh
ments. Everyone then lent a hand to help
clear up the floors, wash the dishes
and leave things as near as possible
as they were found.
All, then, in a jolly mood, started
for home, after an evening, long to
linger in happy memories.
VERY EITJOYABLE EVENT
From Thursday's lally
Last evening the school house in
district No. 27, known as the Cot
tonwood school, three miles-west of
Mynard, was the scene of a very de
lightful box social which had been
arranged by the teacher, Miss Lucille
Horn and her pupils.
The program that had been pre
pared was one of the greatest of in
terest and' covered a large array of
entertaining features that all of the
members of the party enjoyed to the
utmost and reflected the greatest
credit on all of the persona taking part
In the sale of the boxes of the dainties

Not being a "preacher." this may
"o-'tid p.wkward, and crude, but it is
certainly true and sound economical-
ly, and "spiritually." We'd be sur-
prised if some Sunday in several of
our churches, our loading business
men, on whom our churches depend
for support, woul say "Well, the
roads are fine now, and there is a
greater 'variety in Omaha, we have
decided to attend the Omaha churches
and pay our subscriptions there." The
moral principle i exactly the same
as members of a church who do not
give tho Platt?mouth business men
their united and undivided business
support, yet expect these same men.
members of their churches, to bear
the up-keep of the church. So. as I
said, the business, civic, and religious
life of the community is inter-woven
into one strand or one chain, and
a chain is never any stronger than Its
weakest link!
The question is answered: if you
wish to co-operate with the Cham
ber of Commerce, support your home
merchants; your home bakeries;
your home industries; it has ceased
to be a "civic duty" but looms up
as a religious one as well, for your
church contacts with every other
business aad industry in Plattsmouth.
Again: "Lord, God of Hosts, be
with us yet, lest we forget; lest we
forget."
