tor in Murdock on Tuesday of last
week, selling the corn of the estate
to the Weddell elevator, which was
shelled and delivered on Wednesday
of last week. The farm is being farm

way is one of the very best of farm
ers. Mr. and Mrs. Charles I. Long had
for their guests on last Sunday Mr.
H. C. Backemeycr and son Edgar.
The other members of the Backe
mcyer family would have been there
to enjoy the occasion, but for the
fact that they were under quarantine

Christmas very much and the visit
ing party returned the following day
via the train.
With reference to the squib we had
in the paper last week, wherein we
were joshing about a boxing match,
we were wrongly informed, for there
was no boxing in the matter, the one
doing the injury having come up and
dealt a blow as a surprise which did
the injury, perhaps not knowing
how he was striking, and the other
person unaware of it, for the blow
fractured a rib, and has caused much
suffering to the one injured.
While at their breakfast on last
Monday morning, and with nothing
to claim their attention, as it was
Christmas day. the family of H. V.
McDonald entered into a discussion
as to what to do, when someone sug
gested that they eo to Hampton and
visit with Gayle McDonald and fam
ily, and in a few moments they were
on the road, and all the family spent
the day and night with the son and
family, at Hampton, returning the
day following, and all enjoying the
visit very much.
Mr. and Mrs. Louis Hornbeck, of
Lincoln, entertained at their home on
Christmas day and had for their
guests. Dr. and Mrs. Russell Horn
beck and Mrs. Charles Backemeyer,
the latter the mother of Mrs. Horn
beck, and Mrs. Jerusa Wetherford.
a sister of Louis Hornbeck, all of
Lincoln, and I. G. Hornbeik. of Mur
dcik. who made up the Christmas
party. The joyousness of the occa
sion as it was wont to be, was dimin
ished by the recent death of I. J.
Wetherford. the husband of Mrs.
Wetherford. which occurred on De
cember 13th and the going saddened
the otherwise happy event. Mr.
Wetherford was well and very fav-
: orably known here and as brother-in-
law to the three Hornbeck boys, had
olten visited in Murdock.
At Liberty Again
The family of II. A. Guthman, who
have been kept at home for some
time on account of the illness of Miss
Janet, were released from quarantine

erty, after having been kept so close

H. M. Pollard Returns from Jour-
neyinjr Through the Green
Mountain State.
H. M. Pollard, who has been at
Ludlow. Vermont, and other nearby
towns for the past four months, re
turned home Wednesday morning,
after a very delightful trip and visit. 1
He made the trip east with Mr. and
Mrs. M. N. Tucker, late in the sum
mer, when they drove through the
eastern states on their vacation and
Mr. Pollard returned on the train. !
While in the east Mr. Pollard was
visiting with relatives at his old
home and attending to matters of
business while there. The greater
part of his time was spent in or near
Ludlow, Vermont, the home of Presi
dent Coolidge.
While there, he was in the big flood
area and witnessed the flood in all
stages of its great destruction. The
town was without communication
for several days and the only news
of the outside world was thru daily

Denouncing most of the constitu

as outright blunders, F. Dumont

Bar association, spoke before the con
vention of the Nebraska Bar asso
ciation ?t Omaha Thursday morning
on "Mending the Constitution."
Dean Roseoe Pound of the Harvard
law school spoke in th- attcrnocn.
Mr. Smith particularly condemned

Negroes the vote; the Seventeenth,
which provided for election of sen
ators by direct vote; the Eighteenth
amendment for prohibition, ar.d the
Ninttcentli, for worn- suPragt-y
Th" propored child labor amendment
also came in fc a sharp attack.
"Soon the states will be mere geo-

Of pll the amendnier :s to the con
rtit'ition. Mr. Smith thoucht that
only th Thirteenth. ;ibli?hin slav
ery, and the Sixteenth, providing for
the income tax. were actually neces
sary. "The Twelfth amendment," he
r.aid, "was hastily passed by the Jef
ferson republicans in a panic of fear
ovr the near election of Burr in
1801. It was a clumsy thine." Th
corporation objecting to taxation o-regi-lation
may sue. The vil feature
of this amendment. Mr. Smith declar-
j ed, was tat it took from the states
i the risrht to resrulate citizenship, a
thing they were best qualified to do.
The Fifteenth amendment, grant

"gha-tlv mistrke." he declared. "It

said, to make the south permanently

The Seventeenth amendment, be
declared, was "an absurd jresture
toward pure democracy," and com
bined with the direct primary it
has resulted in some of the great

The Eighteenth amendment is un
sound, Mr. Smith declared, because
"no centralized government hs ever
yet successfully exercised this kind
of drastic intimate police power over
a far-flung territory. The inevitable
result has alwavs been a corrupt, in-
