Now For Better Roads Near Here.
Merchants and business men are to
be assessed for the support of good
roads tributary to Norfolk , and a new
campaign has been started looking
toward better roads.
In a circular letter to the business
men of Norfolk the Commercial club
has listed all business men and have
used a scale of assessment rating all
as equal as possible In money or teams
or labor. Following is the letter sent
out :
Norfolk , Neb. , Sept. 11. Dear Sir :
For the past few years there has been
an effort made In various localities to
better the road conditions , not only for
the satisfaction and pleasure that it
affords to ride on good roads , but for
the advancement of business gener
ally.
ally.Tho movement has become so uni
versally popular that the government
has made appropriations for the edu
cation of the public In road building
and they have sent out experts to lec
ture and give demonstrations in the
handling of different devices to drag
the roads and to explain the best
methods to pursue. They have select
ed the materials to be used In the
making of roads in different localities ,
as the soil condition is a factor in get
ting results.
Some of our states have taken the
matter up to such an extent that the
legislatures have enacted bills , and
appropriated funds for the specific
purpose of road building.
In cities , the work generally falls
on some organized body , so the Com
mercial club of Norfolk have taken It
upon themselves to stimulate the
movement In this locality and are en
deavoring to enlist the help of every
live merchant , citizen and farmer to
put the roads within a radius of five
miles of Norfolk In good hauling con
dition.
We live In n section that depends
entirely on agriculture , and our loca
tion Is such that wo draw trade from
all directions , and , besides , wo are the
largest town In the territory and our
merchants carry heavy stocks of goods
and by the upbuilding ajid upkeeplng
of the roads leading into Norfolk , your
sales and business can bo very mate
rially Increased.
From the present Indications , Madi
son , Pierce and Stanton counties will
have one of the largest corn crops In
the history of these counties , and Nor
folk wants to be In a position to take
care of her share of the good things
that our wonderful producing country
affords.
The Commercial club has adopted
the following plan : Wo expect to en
list the help of the farmers , and will
ask them to donate labor and teams
to an equal amount of money expended
by us. In addition to this , wo will ask
the assistance of the county commis
sioner and Will request him to have
his men and teams work In connection
with ours. In order to effect an or
ganization that will carry this project
through wo have decided to hold a
special good roads day. All business
men In Norfolk and farmers In the
vicinity will bo Invited to participate.
It will bo the purpose to have the
farmers organize themselves in dis
tricts choosing a chairman to bo
known as the good roads man of their
particular district , and then work In
connection with us according to plans
agreed upon.
In order to accomplish what wo ex
pect to It will mean the expenditures
of not only time and work , but money ,
so wo ask you to help , not In the time
and In the work , but In the money.
Wo have listed nil of the merchants
and have used a scale of assessment
rating all ns near equal as possible ,
and your share will bo $ Tills
amount can bo paid in three payments ,
or In the furnishing of men and teams
equal to the amount of your subscrip
tion.
tion.The
The time Is short and Immediate ac
tion Is necessary , therefore we ask
you to kindly act at once. Fill out the
enclosed card and mall , to Mr. W. A.
Wltzlgmnn. Your negle'ct to comply
with this request may bo the means
of failure of the project.
Hoping that you realize the Import
ance of the movement and that you
will do your part , wo beg to remain
Very truly yours ,

TO MAKE HIM HONEST.
A St. Louis Prisoner Is Eager for Sur
gical Operation.
St. Louis , Sept. 14. Cyrus Eaton , a
patient In the City hospital , Is eager
for the physicians to operate on his
brain and destroy the Inclinations that
have three times caused him to be
sentenced to the workhouse , and which
have caused him numerous arrests for
theft and other violations of the law.
Several doctors who spoke to Eaton
and watched him carefully in the hos
pital say that ns far as observations
are concerned , Eaton Is perfectly sane.
His talk and actions speak for his
sanity.
"I place all my crimes to the Injury
to my head , " Eaton said today. "I
cannot govern my Inclinations since
my Injury. I drink to excess and while
Intoxicated I commit crimes I would
have been ashamed to think of before
my accident. I want the doctors to
operate on me , because I want to be
a good citizen. "
Eaton , before he was Injured two
years ago , was a well respected buyer
for a mercantile company. He had no
bad habits then , although he says he
drank liquor occasionally.
The operation of craniotomy will
mean the removal of several square
Inches of bone from Eaton's skull to
permit the doctors to examine the eov'
erlng of the gray matter , and act ac-
cordlngly. One of the physicians at
the hospital said Eaton's trouble was
caused by a bone pressure on the
brain which could be removed success
fully. Eaton says ho Is willing that
the doctors shall cut into his skull if
they can only cure him.
SAYS PROHIBS WILL FAIL.
Catholic Prelate Tells Audience That
Reform Must Come From Within.
Baltimore , Sept. 14. "Prohibition
Ists all over the country are making
an effort to suppress the use of Intox
icating liquors , and while I hope they
will succeed , I don't much think they
will. Reform must come fron. within ,
not from without. You cannot legis
late for virtue , " said Cardinal Gibbons.
His remarks were made during an ad
dress following the pledge given to
the main portion of a class he had con
firmed In St. Mary's church , adjoining
Doughoregan manor , on the historic
old Carroll estate.
"There Is but one thing to do , " con
tlnued the cardinal , "and that Is to
inculcate abstinence in young persons
so they may not become slaves to
liquor. Its effects are found every'
where , sometimes oven among church'
men. No church should tolerate a
clergyman who drinks. If a tendency
to drink Is found among seminarians ,
they should bo asked to leave off
studying for the sacred ministry.
Should the superior of St. Charles col
lege , who Is present , find among his
students one or another with an Incli
nation toward strong drink , he would
at once have that student removed.
"Understand mo , I do not mean to
say that it is a sin to take a little re
freshment , but It should bo taken at
the proper time , and once you are of
ago you are not to make up for lost
time. The Catholic church does not
advocate extremes , but wisely , safely ,
steers In the middle course. "

ther , C. S. Bridge , 1103 Norfolk av
enue. Only relatives and a very few
friends wore present.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. Edwin Booth , Jr. , pastor of the
First Congregational church , the Im
pressive ring service being used. The

Miss Molllo Bridge , and the groom by
Spencer Butterfleld , a fraternity
brother.

His Daughter Dead Three Months.
Fred Boche of Norfolk has Just
learned , three months after she was
laid to rest , of the death of his eldest
daughter , Lottie , at Salem , Ore. The
young woman , 27 years of age , had
been married but a month when her
death came. The name of the man
she married has not been learned by
the family here.
Mr. Boche yesterday received a let
ter from his son , who went west with
the daughter. In this letter the son
asks whether or not he has heard of
Lottie's death. She died June 9.
The son says he wrote three months
ago but , having heard no word from
home , believes that the original letter
never was received in Norfolk. And
this is the case.
Mr. Bocho did not know that his
daughter was ill , and does not know
now what caused her death. He has
written for further particulars.
Lookl Listen ! Locate.
The dry weather In certain parts of
Nebraska , Oklahoma and Texas preventing - j !

harvests are bountiful and the climate
pleasant , to investigate the Teton and

cating there , where choice land with

Notice.
To the Citizens of Norfolk : You
are Invited to co-operate with the of
ficials of the municipality to clean up
all streets , alleys , vacant lots , business
places and homo promises.
A clean city means less sickness and
a lower death rate. Rats , flies and In
sects feed on and breed In garbage and
rubbish and as the former carry dis
ease , the danger from them is les
sened by eliminating their food supply
and breeding places. : Last month there
were ninety cases of the plague In
Canton , Ohio , with seventy deaths.
This disease Is carried by the rat flea ,
and the rats In Norfolk could become
infected as easily as those of any other
city. There are twenty-six varieties of
( lies that frequent sewerage and hu
man food and carry typhoid and other
diseases. Earth closets should , there
fore , be treated with quicklime and
screened , and all manure removed
weekly during fly season. Please do
not , for this reason , throw waste from
the table or kitchen upon the open
alloy , but In a screened box.

City Physician.
