Llewellan has been in this locality this

northeast and east from Platte Center.
There seems to be a good prospect for
the establishment of this route.
A caucus was held last Friday even
ing for the purpose of nominating three

board to take the places of Wm. Bloe-
dorn, D. P. Mahoney and C. J. Carng,
whose terms expire. M. E. Clother, P.
J. Riley and Robert Wilson were the
gentlemen named for these positions. It
looked for a time as though this would
be the only ticket in the field, but last
evening, after the time for nominating
had expired, a petition, with D. D.
Roberts and Lew Hoare as candidates
was filed, and now it looks as though
there was going to be something doing.
