A Big Temperance Day in Nebraska
City.

Editor Nebraska Advertiser.
Last Thursday, May 23rd. was th'
day appointed for the gathering OF the
temperance masses in Nebraska City
The people came from Otoe county
principally, but not a few from Nema
ha, and by common consent the day
and occasion were made perfect sue,
cess. The rally-for such 1t was-wa:
under the immediate control of the
Nebraska City T. of II.
Alto O'Clock the people assembled
at the capaoious lodge room, and after
exchanges of social greeting between
the brethren of the city and visiting
brethren, Capt. Sousley, marshal OF
the day, arranged line of march.
The procession marched up Main
street to 10th, and down 10th 10 the
Park, headed by the Helicon band
and officers of the Temple, and fol-
lowed by the members two by two.
Major PeaFman, w. &. T. of the Ne
braska City Temple. called the multi
tude to order in a neat speech. Speech
es were made by Revs. Rodabough,
Reed and Williams, and Bro. Fem,
of the Peru Herald, all of whom
showed themselves earnest and en-
thusiastic for the promotion of gener-
al temperance principles. The means
urged to be employed for eliminating
the traffic from the land were similar
to those of THE ADVERTISER. The
exercises were sandwiched with band
music. After dinner a few speeches
were delivered, all to the same pur-
port as those previously given. This
day was quite an event In Nebraska
City,s history. We noticed num-
Der, who were formerly hard drink
ers, now reformed, and they were the
principal instigators of the movement
and the most persistent workers in the
temperance cause.
But gorgeous as WIS the day in pa
rade, the evening Outshnne it, as
stellar night excels the best efforts in
the windows of q drug store. 1t was
