A very enjoyable time was had at
the residence of Mr. and Mrs. A. W.
Clark Iast Friday evening, by the young
and middle aged people of the surround
ing neighborhood, also quite a few from
the city. In fact Mr. and Mrs. Clark
thought a cyclone had struck their
place, by the way the wagons and car
riages began to rattle into their yard
and the occupants take possession of the
house and loading the dining-room table
with bundles and packages which proved
to be, farther on, something good for the
inner man. including ice cream, and
nearly enough to supply Coxey's army.
After the usual greetings, a musical and
literary program was carried out, in
which A. W. Clark led off with a violin
solo, accompanied on the organ by
Clarence Clark; Miss Hattie Berger fur
nished two songs; Miss Sarah Fitz
patrick two numbers of instrumental
music; Miss Herring a recitation and
two violin solos; Miss Annie Lockhart.
select reading; Miss Winnie Young two
recitations; Miss Elliott, Miss Nellie
Young, Miss Ruby Young, Miss Pearl
Nichol. Miss Myrtle Clark, recitations;
Miss Ettie Moore and Mrs. W. T. Ernst
instrumental music. At about midnight
refreshments were served, after which
until 3 o'clock dancing was the order of
the morning, all going home well pleased.
The true friends of home govern
ment have never been pleased with the
Nebraska Township law, the like of
which was never before known. Seem
ingly it was designed by politicians to
become odious and. in the near future
perish out of sight, because of offensive
features. There has been no limit to
the amount of curses, loud and deep,
that have been heaped upon the princi
ple of township organization, when they
properly belonged to a defective system
inaugurated for the purpose of making
the principle obnoxious. Those citizens
who in other states lived for years under
just systems of township organization,
have known all along that our statutes
could be greatly improved upon, and
bring them somewhere near what other
states east of us had been enjoying and
thriving under. A convention has been
called to meet in the senate chamber,
Lincoln, May loth, to discuss much
needed amendments to our laws. Platte,
Holt, Cuming. York. Hall and Gage
counties send committees, and seventeen
out of the thirty counties of the state
working under township organization,"
have signified their intention of being
represented. Platte eonnty's contingent
will be Supervisors Lisco and Kiernan,
and Clerk Phillips.
A local poet tries his hand thus at
the situation:
Whil I don't think th mayor
Entirely out of siirfit,
I'ti like to know
Which in tht tail
And which is the kite.
Tht mayor nppwira
To m-em to think
In nnitr to make a fail
That he will the body !,
And the council the tail.
If you would iil well
In all kinds of weather.
Make a strong pull
And pull all toother,
all
for
Columbus.
The Jocrnal thinks that the inexpe
rienced rhymester, while he is out of

occupied the solid platform of principle
and stands there with both feet in the
last expression of sentiment.

Mayor Phillips appointed Charles
Brandt special police, the next morning
after his rejection as chief of police by
the council. A conflict between the
mayor and councd seems inevitable. To
the ordinary citizen it looks as though
four councilmen voting against the
nomination was a sentiment entitled to
such respect of the mayor as would in
duce him to name a less objectionable
man for their consideration.

Communication Concerning School Jl.UterC
Editor Jocrxat.: I appreciate the
good intentions of onr new editor. Mr.
Parks of the Telegram, in speaking so
favorably as he does of the Columbus
schools, but it would be safe to say that
had he lived in Columbus longer he
would not thus lavishly bestow so much
praise upon our system and our super
intendent I am aware of the fact that Columbus
has many able teachers and that the
public has very generonsly patronized
the efforts of the teachers in giving en
tertainments for the library fund, but I
do not see tnat the credit shonld all be
given to Mr. Scott It is a question in
my mind, if that same money misrht not
have been better invested, and more
desirable books purchased than those
selected. I think, too. that more of the
money should be invested in books and
apparatus for the lower grades, and not
everything for the high school. Stating
that Columbus schools are not sur
passed anywhere, is more easy than
prnviinj the fact to many of its old citi-
;ens. A citizen-.
