CoLCafBCs, May 5, 1902.
EonoR Colckbtjs Journal: For the
last six weeks the great atate of Ne
braska, and more especially the county
of Platte has been to a great extent
hi rt or cursed almost continually
with an unusual variety of wind, and I
shall not be in the least surprised it in
the hereafter, Platte county should be
known among the sisterhood of counties
as the windy county of Nebraska. I for
one with a good many others do not
object to an occasional blowing of a little
wind, but most strenuously object to a
lot of wind that comes from certain
directions in Platte county in such great
chunks, which does nobody any good,
but baa done and will continue to do a
lot of harm. Reports up to date are to
the effect that Boreas has been getting
in considerable work in the northern
part of the county, with very little dam
age as yet, but we expect to hear also
from the neighborhood of Duncan and
Lost Creek in the near future.
Now to the point. We are on the eve
of an election to be held June 3d, at
which the voters will decide, whether the
county of Platte shall issue bonds to the
amount of 965,000 for the purpose of
building a new court house at Columbus
or not. But now comes Platte Center
and offers(?)S50,000 towards the building
of a court house, provided it is located
there.
Humphrey don't want to be outdone,
and goes Platte Center one better and
offers (?) $75,000 more or less, provided
the court house is built there, but alto
gether unexpectedly, comes Lindsay and
a private individual there shows his
liberality by offering to build and equip
an up-to-date, elegant court house to the
tune of $90,000, entirely free of any ex
pense to the county, if the people of
Platte county will consent to the locat
ing of the county seat in that thriving
little burg.
As Humphrey and Lindsay, for geo
graphical reasons, cannot and do not
expect the county seat, those towns
being farther away from one end of the
county to the other than Columbus,
lying on the extreme northern part of
the county, and only from two and a half
to three miles from the Madison county
line, and as Platte Center will eventually
be good, and relent from the errors of
her ways, I will make Humphrey and
Platte Center, for the purpose of having,
hereafter, peace in the family, the fol
lowing proposition, viz: If you will, in
good faith, relinquish for all time to
come your aspirations for the location of
the county seat in your respective cities,
and agree and bind yourself in a good
and suflbrient bond not to raise any more
disturbance, (or wind) but will assist me
in getting the county seat located at the
city of Tarnov, I will, in addition to the
$75,000 not promised but already sub
scribed by the good people of Tarnov
and the surrounding country, add my
mite of $25,000 to the above subscribed
amount, besides donating a 5-acre tract
for a site, and build and furnish an A,
No. 1, brown-stone front building with
all modern conveniences, not to cost less
than $100,000, and donate the same to
the good people of Platte county for
court house purposes. I will also agree
as a further inducement to the two
neighboring cities to build, equip and
maintain for all time to come, free of
charge to the public, an electrio road
from Platte Center to Humphrey by way
of the next county seat, Tarnov, same to
run every twenty minutes between the
two stations. As Tarnov is about cen
trally located in the county, and as it
is only a question of a very short timet
when the city of Humphrey will be the
suburb of Tarnov to the north and
Platte Center, a suburb of Tarnov to the
south, I hope and trust the good people
of Platte Center and Humphrey will see
the benefit they will derive thereby, and
gladly consent to unite with me on this
proposition. The more so on account of
the monopoiy the 41,, a will then
tav on account of the ranid tranrt to
the detriment of Columbus. There is
no doubt in my mind that the three
cities will eventually form the one great
city of Tarnov, not to be outdone by any
one city in the great state of Nebraska.
I can assure the good people of Platte
Center and Humphrey that this offer is
made in good faith, and is no windy
proposition on my part, although I will,
for argument's sake confess, that it would
have been no wonder, it in this windy
and blowing weather, so prevalent lately
now in Platte county, I should have
caught on to that windy disftsoo.
Respectfully submitted,
Israel Glvck.
Governor Savage has had the thanks
of all good republicans for withdrawing
from the canvass. The party may pos
sibly be doubly thankful to him, first,
because his avowed intention to try for
re-nomination concentrated the opposi
tion, making results, so far, sure and
emphatic. Now the sovereign voters at
their primaries can send delegates to
their county conventions and they to the
state convention, no fully imbued with
the gravity of the occasion that they
will be sure to select the very best men
for candidates for governor as well aa for

head of the ticket should be able to bold
his own in debate with any man the
other party or parties may select as their
ataadard-bearer. Perhaps what has
already occurred may be the most potent
factor in producing the desired election
of the entire republican state ticket
about to be nominated. Fusion may be
dying, bat it is not adrisable for us to
deceive ourselves by thinking that

braska, however closely that condition
may be simulated just at present. It is

THE HUMPHXIT MASS MUCTG
Wai Largely AttemW aa FravsaU
Orajai tooeaaj in Every Way.
Besponding to a call by a committee
of Humphrey citizens to hold a mass
meeting for the purpose of ftiernisMng
the Court House Bond proposition, a
large number of citizens from Humphrey
and vicinity, and representative dele
gates from Lindsay, Creston and Platte
Center, met at the opera house in Hum
phrey Monday evening to deliberate on
the objects of the meeting.
The meeting was called to order by C.
H. Swallow and an organization was
perfected by electing Wm. Webber
chairman and C. M. Oruenther secretary.
The three main questions, as outlined in
the call, were then taken up and dis
cussed in their order to-wit:
(1.) Is not the sum of $65,000 an ex
travagant sum for the county to spend
for a new building?
This question brought out a very
spirited discussion, but the concensus of
opinion was nearly unanimous that a
courthouse ranging in price from $35,000
to $45,000 would answer all the require
ments of public utility, and that above
sum would build a court house of suffi
cient size and beauty to be in keeping
with the high standard of thrift and
resourcefulness of Platte county.
(2.) Is it sound business sense for
Platte county tax payers to bond them
selves for $65,000 to pay for a new court
house when two towns, Platte Center
and Humphrey, both more centrally
located than the present county seat,
offer to budd and equip a modern court
house of sufficient size free of expense to
the county?
The sentiment brought out by this
question was unanimously in the nega
tive. The most prominent and beet peo
ple of Humphrey pledged that in case of
a removal of the oounty seat, they would
support Platte Center provided Hum
phrey would be out of the race. They
supported their argument by illustrating
that a court house even at Platte Center
would bring the agricultural community
of the north half of the county within a
half day's drive to the oounty seat, which
circumstance would enhance realty val
ues, and whatever would' benefit the
farmers of the north end of the county
would benefit Humphrey and other
towns in the north part of the county.
(3.) Conceding that Platte county
needs a new court house, is it not sonnd
common sense to locate the county seat
in a town that will build it free of ex
pense to the county, especially when
such town is more centrally located than
the present county seat?
On this question again the meeting
agreed to a man, after which the follow
ing resolutions introduced by P. E. Mc
Killip were enthusiastically adopted:
First: Resolved that the sum of
$65,000.00 is an extravagant sum for
Platte oounty to spend for a new court
house.
Second: Resolved that it is not sound
business sense lor Platte oounty tax
payers to bond themselves for $65,000 to
pay for a new court house, when two
towns, Platte Center and Humphrey,
both more centrally located than the
present oounty seat, offer to build and
equip a modern court house free of ex
pense to the county.
Third: Resolved that although Platte
county may need a new court house, is
not it sound common sense to locate the
oounty seat in a town that will build it
free of expense to the county, especially
when such town is more centrally located
than the present county seat?
A motion prevailed instructing the
secretary to prepare a synopsis of the
proceedings of the meeting and furnish
a copy thereof, together with a copy of
the resolutions, to the press of .the
oounty.
Un motion by C H. Swallow the citi
zens present from neighboring towns
were elected as delegates to organise
and call similar mass meetings in their
respective towns. Whereupon the meet
ing adjourned.
City Ceandl.
At the met meeting of the city coun
cil a petition waa presented asking that
water be famished the Sisters' hospital
free. The motion to grant the request
waa amended to defer the subject. We
find, on our rounds for news, that the
whole waterworks subject is under dis
cussion, and very numerous are the sub
topics: Whether the counci can legally
do so? Whether the plant is self-sns-taining,
and, if so, whether any repairs
are needed? If everything else is all
right, cannot service be extended where
naked for? If the reams should be
granted by this council, could not the
legal rate for euch service be recovered
from the recipient, by suit at law?
