home of Oscar McDonald and wife, of

here.
The snow storm which was very
heavy in thi3 vicinity, almost demol

by nature.

visitor in Plattsmouth on last Wed

vo bad that they could not all get
out to vote.
Leslie Rush lias been having sonic
time with attacks of rheumatism and
neuritis, which has caused him much

comes his way.
Mrs. Louis Schmidt entertained at
their beautiful country home on

vised a plan which he took to J. IT.
Buck, and these gent'emen then went
to work and as a result they soon
manufactured a box, which raises
and unloads the grain in a very short
time by letting it run out. and then
return to its natural position, and
. with very little work or trouble.
He Likes the Town
J We asked A. J. Tool, the hardware
and harness man, why he was living
in Murdock. A smile broke out over
1 his face and he said, "Well, there are
just one thousand reasons why I am
living in Murdock. I will only tell
you a few. Murdock is the best lit
tie town in the country and surround
ed by the very best farming commun-
i ity in the United States, and above
and beyond this the people are agree
able, industrious and friendly, mak
ing this the ideal place for a home
and a very s-ood business dace." He
' said he was a citizen of Murdock be
cause toe Irked-the 'people, the town
and the country. Then why not make
this his home.

DEPMR TMEMT.
Nebraska Wheat
Is Better Than
Decade Acreage
Eastern and Central Counties Show
Excellent Winter Crop Con
ditions, Report States
Lincoln, April 13. Nebraska win
ter wheat is now 9 per cent better
than the 10-year average according
to figures compiled here by the state
and federal division of agricultural
statistics.
Although the winter season was
exceedingly short of moisture, so
that heavy abandonment was expect
ed, light precipitation occurred in
February so that the wheat stooled
out and prevented injury from spring
winds.
The condition ranges from good to
excellent in eastern and central
counties, fair to good In south cen
tral counties and rather uneven in
southwestern countries. Consider
able abondonment is expected in the
southwest, but in the central west
few fields will be plowed up.
Nebraska's percentage on wheat
of 8 6 per cent is as compared with
CS.S per cent for the United States
as a whole.
The condition of rye Is S4 per cent,
and pasturage has the same index
figure. Insufficient moisture during
December damaged the rye.
Cash rents are reported slightly
higher than a year ago. Farm land
valued at $77 per acre brings an
average rental of $3. SO an acre.
Plow land valued at $107 an acre
brings $7.40 and pastures worth $31
return $1.30 on the acre.
The present farm labor supply ex
ceeds the demand although the farm
wages average slightly higher than
a year ago.
Farm wages per month with board
are $43.25. Day labor with board
averages $2.35.
Progress of farm work is fully up
to normal as weather has allowed
farmers to get an early start. Con
ditions have been favorable for feed
ing livestock and more animals are
on feed than a year ago.
Marketing of corn has been ab
normally heavy, as have the receipts
of hogs from Nebraska during the
last three months.

Metcalfe Gives
a Statement of
His Position
Thanking the Voters, the Democratic
Nominee Promises a Campaign
Free of Personalities.
Richard L. Metcalfe., democratic
nominee for United States senator,
today gave out this statement.
"I thank the democrats of Ne
braska for the high honor they have
conferred upon me. I believe that the
recent mudslinging fight in Illinoii
and the 'late unpleasantness' in the
republican senatorial fight in Ne
braska have surfeited thinking men
and women with that sort of contest.
There will be no mudslinging in the
campaign I shall make although it
will not be lacking in vigor. I shall
hope to be able to know at the con
clusion of the battle that I have
not left a personal seer upon a single
heart. Victorious or defeated I shall
hope to close the contest with my
own consciousness void of personal
offense to my opponent. I shall not,
of course, hesitate to express my dis
agreement with him wherever that
disagreement may occur. No public
office is worth striving for through
the infliction of personal wounds
which cannot, by reason of their
very nature, be healed. The office
to which I now aspire, and for which
I shall fight with all my zeal, is so
high, so fraught with solemn respon
sibility, that it ought to be possible
for the men who seek- it to strive
for it in a manly way.
"Should I be elected to the United
States Senate. Nebraska and her
welfare, particularly that of the
farming interests, for that is the
foundation of our prosperity, would
be foremost in my thought. I would
not want to be feared. My highest
ambition would be to W'lowd b the
men, women and children of my
state; loved for the constructive ser
vice I had tried to give, for the
protection I had sought to throw
around the weak and helpless, for
the sense of justice I had tried to
cultivate in my own consciousness,
for the effort I had made for the es
tablishment of better understandin?
between all our people laborers
business men, farmers, professiona
nipn.
"Cordial co-operation among men
and women in all lines of endeavor
will naturally result from a glimpse
at our neighbor's oroblems and bur
dens and an understanding of our
dpncndcncp noon one another in
building for ourselves as well as for
our state. Such co-opera t ion, made
in the real constructive spirit, will
bring us nearer a realization of the
agee-old dream of government of the
people, by the people, for the people,
in its bpst and Durest sense: for we
know that 'the people' means all of
us and we cannot withhold justice
from one without doing injustice to
all.

Klan Guilty
of Crimes, the
Court Holds
Judge Thomson Scores Hooded Order
in Dismissing Injunction Suit
Against Members
Pittsburgh, April 14. A stern in
dictment of the Ku Klux Klan in
which it was held to be responsible
for riots, bloodshed, and the burning
of men alive, was made here late
Friday by Federal Judge W. H. S.
Thomson, in an opinion dismissing
an injunction suit brought by the
order against five former merbers.
The court, after hearing sensation
al testimony for five days, including
a general denial by Imperial Wizard
Hiram W. Evans, of charges made
against the klan, held that the or
ganization came into the court of
equity with "filthy hands" and that
is could not gain any relief from
him.
Klan Pays Costs
In dismissing the klan petition for
an injunction to restrain the former
members from using its name, and
asking for $500,000 damages, Judpe
Thomson placed the costs upon the
klan. j
The court upheld practically every j
bit of testimony offered by the de-;
fendants against the klan, including
allegations that klansmen had burn
ed a Negro alive in Texas; that they
had flogged other citizens; that they
har maintained a secret terrorist or
ganization known as the "knicht j
riders" and "black robe" gang; thatj
they had fostered riot?, that they
caused bombs to be set off in an effort
to increase klan membership; that
they had kidnapped a child in Pitts
burgh, and that they had stirred up
racial and religious feelings through
out the country.
Invaded Rights
Judge Thomson held that the klan.
with the sanction of Evans and other
leading ofliciers, had not only vio
lated its own constitution and laws,
but had invaded the rights of citiz
ens who were not members of the
organization.
After entering his order of dinii.--sal,
the court noted that the plain
tiff took exception. Klan attorneys
said they would probably confer on
the question of carrying the case tc
a higher court.
Several days ago, in another opin
ion. Judge Thomson had dismissed
the cross-complaint of the five de
fendants, in which they sought to
have a receiver named for the klan
in Pennsylvania and asked that the
klan account for some $15,000,000
said to have been collected in the
state. At that time the court court
said that if the charges entered
against the klan were upheld, it
would not only be-the .right but per
haps the duty of the state of Penn
sylvania to revoke the charter under
which the klan operates. Omaha
