shall. When he had agreed
with the boys for ten cents a
drink, he started them to
drinking in his saloon. And
he went out about the third
hour and saw others sober in
the streets. He said To them,
Get We also TO drinking, and
as much as We pay for, that
shall We drink"
Again he went out about the
sixth and ninth hour, and did
likewise. About the eleventh
hour he went out and found
others standing sober, and
said unto them, "Why stand
we here all day sober"
They said unto him, BE
cause no man hath made us
|drunkards."
He saith unto them, Get
We also TO drinking, and what
soever you drink that shall We
|ay for"
So they went in to the
saloons and began to drink,
make merry, shoot one anoth-
er and rob their wives and
children of bread. And il
came to pass, that when the
wives and mothers saw their
children had no bread they
lifted up their voices and
wept and the voice of their
weeping was heard, even to
the utmost parts of Marshall.
When the chief captains and
rulers of the people heard the
weeping of the Marshallites
they said one to another, "Go
to let's make unto our selves
a law to be known as a local
option law that there be no
saloons in Marshall for 10
these many years.
And all the people said it is
we'll spoken. And it shall
come to pass that there will
be a day of fighting between
the Marshallites and the
saloon men. And it shall
come further to pass that the
Marshallites shall utterly de-
stroy the saloon men and
shall smite them hip and
thigh, and shall burst their
bars asunder and turn their
saloons into grocery houses.
There shall be no place for
the saloons throughout all the
land of Marshall.

NEW BRIDGE AT FREMONT.
Northwestern is to Spend 100000 In
REPLACING Platte River Bridge.


Replacing Platte River Bridge.
Lincoln Journal: Work will begin
in a short time on the replacement
Of the Northwestern wooden bridge
over the Platte river near Fremont
with steel. The wooden structure Is
a bridge of the truss pattern with high
ratings on either side, while the new
steel structure will be a girder bridge
of the deck plate type. 1t will cost
when completed 100000, but it will
not be completed this year, A portion
of the wooden structure will be re-
will be used for some time that all of
the value possible may be secured.
The old footings will be used as long
as they will last, and eventually they
will be replaced with concrete piers.
A feature of the new structure is
that when completed the new bridge
will be three feet higher than the old
This will lessen the grade that much
in climbing the bank on the south side
of the river.
The Northwestern's bridge at this
location has been in service twenty
one years, and has cost very little for
rebuilding or repairs when compared
to the cost of maintenance of other
Platte river structures. Where built
the river has always had free chan
mel excepting when ice jams have
formed above it or below. 1t has
never been in serious danger from the
ice, and when other bridges have been
thrown out of service this structure
has remained in use.
During the past three years the
Northwestern has done lot of re
building on the Lincoln line of the
road. New steel has been laid on part
of the line, ballasting of large part
of it has been completed and bridges
have been strengthened.

of something that makes itself known

gulled are holding the sack and it's
said that one fond maid who knew
him as leap year possibility, refuses
to be comforted. Bill Gail hailed from
Red Oak, Iowa, and in looking him up
it has been discovered that his name
was more placid, simply Horace Shap-
colt, which is much better considering
what he caught in Wayne. 1t is fur
Their now known that he has a wife
living at Red Oak. The Wayne

account. The business men who got
