The many Louisville friends of Mr.

grieved last week to learn of the

She spent a number of the years
of her childhood and girlhood with
her family in Louisville where the

Mrs. Long was married on Decem

grief cannot be put into words.

The Quality bakery that will be

secured the services of Albert Egen
berger, who has been engaged with
the Ortman bakery in Omaha and who
will in the future assist here in the
local bakery. Mr. Egenberger is a
baker, of many years experience and
his work has been of the very best
and it is needless to say that he will
be a very valuable asset to the local
bakery.
From Saturday's Daily
Last night had the great pleasure
of being the guest of the Nebraska
City Chamber of Commerce, at their
banquet at the Grand hotel, this be-'
ing their "Farmers Night" and en-
joyed a splendid dinner, met a jolly- i
good bunch of fellows, and heard
some very instructive addresses.
President Rice, of the board of
directors, in his talfc Drought home
the facts that the interests of the
farmers and the merchants are ab
solutely "identical"; also, their
Chamber of Commerce acted as a
"clearing house" for all the civic
activities of the merchant and the
farmer as well; that what is good
for the country is good for the city
and vice versa; that this section of
Nebraska has naver known a crop
failure; that agriculture is the
foundation of the prosptrity of
every business
A. L. Hacker of the Nebraska Uni
versity was the speaker of the eve
ning, his subject being "Cheese Fac
tories and the Dairy Business." Mr.
Hacker discouraged the proposition
of a cheese factory in this section of
Nebraska on account of climatic con
ditions rhppsp makine here renuir-
ing artificial cooling, and daily re-!
ceipas of the entire unsnimmed whole
milk while fresh and sweet. While
it would appear from prices received
for cheese, the profit might seem
greater than from butter-fat alone,
but after deducting the expense of
packing cheese, containers etc., it
was less profitable.
Here are quotations from Mr.
Hacker's talk jotted down by the
writer for the benefit of our own i
home farmers, and which bear out In
so many ways the suggestions this
office has been hammering home re
garding the dairy cow. ;
"The farmers and the city busi
ness men are getting closer and clos
er together. " "Thess meetings of
farms and civic organizations today
are going on over the whole United
States." "We are living in a com
petitive civilization under a com
petitive government, which requires
co-operation to get best results."
i "Nebraska Is fourth place now In
dairy cows in the United States, but
ilCth place in butter-fat on account
'of not placing the best dairy cows
on the farms."
"Nebraska has not touched the
dairying possibilities of dairying."
j "Farmers in this vicinity, are most
'favorably located here for dairy
, business: cost of raw material (feed)
j is cheaper here than anywhere in
: America, than the gTeat dairying
j states of Minnesota, and Wisconsin."
"The sea-boards control the mar
kets where ships export butter. We
are as far from either sea board as
we can possibly be. Butter offers a

within 500 miles of this lattitude.
It was inspiring to see the good
attendance of farmers at this meet
ing. It shows that the spirit of city
and country co-operation is growing
but too slowly! The farmer is a
"business man" the city needs his
brains and co-operation; he needs
ours! Now let's'g'et together.

Last evening the members of the
four classes of the high school join
ed in a most delightful party at the
high school building that was at
tended by some 200 of the students
and members of the faculty of the
school. The staid (?) seniors to the
youthful freshmen were at the party
and all came garbed in the fanciful
gowns of the Hallowe'en season that
gave a scene of more than usual bril
liancy and colorfulness to the pro
gram of the evening.
The party filled all parts of the
school building, a part of the pro
gram being in the auditorium while
the games were staged in the "gym"
of the building and in which all of
the young people as well as the mem
bers of the facuty participated.
The evening was one of the most
pleasant that the high school people
have enjoyed and was one that they
will all long remember.

Governor Mc-
Mullen Makes a
Visit to City
Addresses Voters at Court House Dur
ing Afternoon Monte Munn
in the Party.
From Saturday's Dally
The last large public meeting
that marks the 1926 state campaign
in Plattsmouth was held yesterday
afternoon when Governor Adam Mc
Mullen visited the city in the in
terest of his own candidacy for re
election as the governor of Nebraska.
It had been planned to hold an
outdoor meeting but owing to the
chilly weather prevailing it was de
cided to have the meeting in the dis
trict court room and where for some
forty .minutes the governor present
ed his cause to an audience that
filled the seating capacity of the
room.
The meeting was presided over by
Chairman Charles E. Noyes, of the
republican county oommittee, who
introduced the governor. Mr. Noyes
stated that he had been in the ses
sions of the legislature with Mr.
McMullen and even then was im
pressed with his ability as a mem
ber of the lawmaking body. I
Governor McMullen in his open
ing remarks stated that he was hope
ful that everyone would vote whether
for him or someone else as the ballot
box was the means given the voter
to" express their choice and decision
as to the candidates and their poli-j
cies.
The governor in starting his dis
cussion of the state affairs gave a
resume of what the process is in
making estimates of the years ap-'
propriations, the various institution!
heads reporting on their expenses j
and needs in repairs or improvements!
and which must be cared for in the
appropriations. The neglect of the j
stat in keeping up its buildings or
properly caring for the wards of the I
state was not economy but rather
lack of good business principal, the
governor stated.
Under the regime of his opponent
Governor McMullen stated there has
not been the proper handling of the
labor department and which had
been cut from five persons to two
to care for the business of the office
of Governor Bryan.
Mr. McMullen stated that when
he had taken office he had been judg
sented with a claim on a court judg
ment for $600,000 for road work in
the McKelvie administration and
which had not been settled in the
time of Mr. Bryan in the executive
mansion. This claim had to be paid
to cut the interest on the judgment
and which had been done altho Gov
ernor Bryan had refused to pay the
claim on account of no funds being
available.
Mr. McMullen stated that he chal
lenged his opponent to give any one
constructive measure that his ad
ministration had done. In touching
on the tax proposition Mr. McMullen
claimed that in Cass county for this
year the reduction in the state taxes
would amount to $31,000.
In attacking the record of saving
which had been made by Governor
Bryan. Mr. McMhllen stated that his
administration had to pay $1,088,000
in claims that had been carried over
from the previous administration.
Mr. McMullen also attacked the
highway work of the Bryan adminis
tration as being lacking In that the
proper development of the highway
program was not made and that
while Bryan had graveled 417 miles
of highway the McMullen adminis
tration had graveled 1,700 miles and
graded up 1,300 more for the gravel.
He also stated thatGovernor Bryan
had opposed the gasoline tax that
had made the highways possible and
which had been so strongly urged
in the last campaign, by the republicans.
The candidate stated that the
gasoline fund was protected by law
from being used for other purposes.
The failure of the Bryan admin
istration to carry out the bovine
tubucular test act was also scored
by Mr. .McMullen at the close of his
speech and in which he pointed out
the advantages that the test brought.
In regard to the employment of
extra men on the state payroll Gov
ernor McMullen stated that the re
cord showed that there was 340 on
the payroll in the various depart
ments outside of the road depart
ment as against 345 in the Bryan
administration. The governor stated
that force of men engaged in the
highway maintaining work had been
appointed by the county commission
ers over the state and had been
taken over with the highways and
that he had nothing to do with their
appointment. Mr. McMullen de
fended the state workers from the
charge of "taxeaters" as the per
sons on the pay roll were all earn
ing their money.
At the conclusion of the speech
the governor waa posed for the photo
graphers at the west door of the court
house with Monte Munn, the heavy
weight boxer who has, closed a very
successful campaign in the east in the
ring.

Platters Over
Run School for
the Deaf Friday
Roll Up Score of 40 to 0 In a Very
One Sided Battle George
Perry Stars.
From Saturday's Daily
Plunging through the line- at will
and with flashy end runs to add to
their scoring, the Plattsmouth high
school football team yesterday hum
iliated the team of the Nebraska
School for the Deaf by the score of
40 to 0. The game was played on the
gridiron of the North high school at
Omaha and the Platters were
scarcely in danger at any stage of
the game and kept the Omaha team
constantly on the defensive.
From the opening of the game the
Platters had the advantage and in
the first moments of the game the
Plattsmouth team started the march
down the field with straight foot
ball being used in the attack on the
rapidly crumbling defense of the
Omaha state school. In this quar
ter of the game two touchdowns were
made Wescott carrying the ball in
one of the plunges through the or
ange and black line while Bob Fitch
the husky Platts half back tore
through for the second scoring of the
game.
In the second quarter of the game
George Perry electrified his team
mates and the spectators by a brll
lian 55 yard end run that brought
the ball over the School for the Deaf
goal for the third touchdown of the
game, the Omaha players being un
able to check the onrush of the
Plattsmouth half who was playing
in place of Buttery at this position.
The third quarter also witnessed
Perry again featuring the Platts
mouth scoring when the School for
the Deaf attempted an aerial attack.
Perry intercepting passes and again
racing for forty and forty-five yards
through the ranks of his foes for two
touchdowns and which with the trys
for goal rolled up the increasing
score for the locals.
In the last quarter the Platters
tried out their air stun with the
result that a pass from Wescott to
Hatt netted them another touch
down and left the score standing 40
to 0 for the Platters.
Buttery, Clark and Mason of the
regular lineup were missing from the
game and Perry, Caldwell and Oliver
Schneider filled in the Ipaces most
acceptably and added to the winning.
The victory has been most pleasing
to the blue and white followers and
they are anticipating a repetition of
the victory here on next Wednesday
afternoon against the Auburn high
school team.
SHOWING IMPROVEMENT
From Saturday's Daily
Mrs. E. E. Gooding, who is at the
Immanuel hospital in Omaha is still
showing the most pleasing improve
ment following her very serious op
eration on Tuesday and her condi
tion has been most encouraging for
her speedy recovery and it is hoped
that she may soon be so far on the
pathway to recovery that she may be
able to return home in the next
two or three weeks.
