South Bend
Residents File
Gravel Petition
Document With Fifty-Eight Signers
Asks for Levy of Three Mills
for Graveling
The agitation that has been con
ducted in South Bend precinct for
the graveling; of a highway through
that precinct from the Louisville pre
cinct line northwest through the
town of South Bend and connecting
with the D. L. D. near Ashland, re
sulted yesterday in a petition being
filed in the office of the county clerk
asking the commissioners to accept
the petition and proceed according
to law to satisfy the wishes of the
people of that section.
The petition asks that the sum of
three mills be levied on the taxable
property of the precinct for a one
year period and that this be used
In the construction of a graveled
highway through the precinct, the
board of county commissioners to
meet a like amount from the county
funds, which would be appropriated
to the road work.
The residents of South Bend have
long felt the need of a good surfaced
road in their precinct and are tak
ing active steps to ' see that their
wish is realized and that another
part of the county is served by a
year around highway. In their de
sires the residents of the precinct
will have the hearty support of all
of the county as the road is one that
is needed to help link up a real
highway system that Is growing and
which needs only the completion of
the road from Greenwood to Platts
mouth to make a very thorough sys
tem of graveled and paved roads.

P. A. Jacobson
Files for County
Commissioner
Well Known Resident of Louisville
to Seek Republican Nomina
tion in 2nd District
From Tuesdays PaJiv
This morning Judge P. A. Jacob
son of Louisville was a caller at the
court house aird while hero filed his
name as a candidate for the repub
lican nomination for county commis
sioner in the second district, sub
ject to the wishes of the voters at
the primary in August.
Mr. Jacobson is one of the long
time and prominent residents oi
Louisville and has been very active
in the life of that community and
at the present time is serving as
justice of the peace and is one of
the most highly respected residents
of his community.
The new candidate is a former
business man at Louisville and has
splendid qualifications for the ofllce
that he is now seeking at the hands
of the voters. It has been a great
many years since LouiBville has had
a candidate for the commissioner
ship from their locality and they
feel that with the growing size of
the community that they are justified
in seeking to have a representation
for this time on the board.
So far the only other filing in the
second district has been that of K.
B. Chapman of Union, democrat. So
far Commissioner Harris has not
entered his name in the race for the
office that he held for the past sev
eral terms.
Following a conference lapt week
at Lincoln as to steps that might
be taken to secure the abandonment
of the old wooden bridge over the
Platte river at Louisville and to sup
port the new structure that is being
built and which the state and harpy
and Cass county have a tentative
contract to purchase and operate.
the county commissioners yesterday
received a petition asking that the
roadway that leads to the old bridge
be vacated.
It was held at Lincoln that the
bridge was a part of .the highway
system and that while there was no
authority for the state and counties
closing a free bridge, that there was
a law that permitted the abandon
ment or vacation of highways that
led to the bridge and as the bridge
was considered a part of the high
way .ystem that it too could be in-
luded.
The granting of the request of the
Louisville petitioners will assure
that the new bridge will have the
support of the community in paying
for the structure through tolls and
making it that much quicker to real
ize v. free bridge than if the old
bridge was also left in commission.
The road to be vacated is at the
south end of the bridge and extends
south some seventy-five feet from the
bridge abutment.

Miss Beemls of the Wright Bias
Tape company had met with the pro
ject leaders at Nehawka and the pro
ject leaders had many new ideas for
the use of bias tape. One thinks of
tape as only a binding, but after the
meeting it was found that bias tape
could be used for many, many things
such as dress trimmings, lingerie
trimmings, pillow tops, quilt blocks
and many other useful articles.
The lesson on quilts and their his
tory was very interesting. Among the
exhibits was an old coverlet that had
been handed down for three gener
ations of the Wolf family. Several
other members had quilts, quilt
blocks and quilted pillows to show
the club.
The business meeting was held by
the president. The club voted to send

a bullet in his brain, all the result
of an admision to a basketball game

money. The boy is said to have gone
to the door of the gymnasium where
Byrd was taking tickets for a basket
ball game and asked Byrd to admit
him and subtract the admission price
from the alleged debt. Byrd refused,
the boy said, and the argument en
sued. Harr left, but returned and
again asked admission. He said an
other argument followed, at the con
clusion of which the coach struck
him and knocked him down. He
then fired the shot, the bullet enter
