A. Kaufman, who were on their way into the hills northwest of Florence. In the party were I. Kaufman, Wil- liam Ryan, John Ryan, Ray Wilson, William Menche and Will Simpson, who held on leash three fine coon dogs. When they saw Shotwell and Hoff, the hunters declared it was big game.

A taste for the best music has been created through study. That time has not yet come for drama,” Prof. S. H. Clark of the University of Chicago told the Drama league members Saturday af- ternoon. “If audiences understood plays and players, a great many ac- tors would have to go out and earn a living. Not until drama is read as carefully as a musician reads notes, will the day of fourth-rate plays and players be over,” he said. Prof. Clark’s talk was preliminary to- a reading and interpretation of Zang- will’s “The Melting Pot.” Much October Business Shown by Glover & Spain Glover & Spain report the follow- ing sales for the month of October: Southeast corner Thirty-sixth and Farnam streets from Mrs. Mary R.

HAPPENINGS IN THE MAGIC CITY Stockmen Interested in Open- ing Up of Territory Through Proposed Road. WYOMING MAN TALKS OF IT Opening up the 200 miles of terri- tory between Miles City, Mont., and Belle Fourche, S. D., again became a topic of conversation at the yards yes- terday when A. N. Hotchkiss, large stock grower of Kendrick, Wyo,, in the vicinity of the district to be im- proved, commented favorably on the matter. Hotchkiss brought in five cars of cattle, these being but a fifth of the day’s shipments from the north- west territory. A line of railroad connecting the two points has long been a proposi- tion boosted by stockmen of the dis- trict and of the local yards. The rail- roads have announced practically def- inite plans for the project, according to Hotchkiss, and will begin construc- tion work very soon. All of the ter- ritory in the vicinity to the north and west of this district, including north South Dakota, North Dakota, middle Wyoming and northern Montana, will be brought into immediate touch with the Omaha market.

University of Omaha Is Given an Idea of The Lower Regions Saturday evening, Redick hall, Uni- versity of Omaha, was converted into a lower region.

POLITICAL ADVERTISEME! Prohibition Destroys Property Values, Increases Taxes and Hangs “For Rent” Signs on Business and Residence Property A Warning From Nashville (Tennessee has had prohibition since 1909) C. C. Waggoner L. F. Waggoner Special Attention Given to Mail Orders C. C. WAGGONER & BRO. Dealers In GARDEN AND FIELD SEEDS, GROCERIES 217 Second Avenue, North Phone Main 994 Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 23, 1916. Douglas County Property Owners’ and Taxpayers’ League, 335 Rose Building, Omaha, Neb., Mr. M. J. Greevy, Secy. Dear Sir:—I am taking the liberty to write you in regard to an article published in one of our newspapers in Nashville, regarding the property values and the prohibition question here. Being a taxpayer and in business in Nashville, I feel that I am competent to give you some facts about the conditions here. 1t is an indisputable fact that prohibition has hurt Nashville. It has caused many business and residence houses to be vacated, which still have “For Rent” signs on them. It has caused a great number of people to leave Nashville, and caused merchants from near points — that should buy their goods in Nashville—to go elsewhere, and it is always a wet city that they go to, such as Louisville, Cincinnati or St. Louis. I have had the opportunity to find out on several occasions why these merchants do not come here and their answer is that they like to go to wet towns to trade, because the town is alive. We have had in Nashville lots of trouble concerning our municipal and county governments, but that did not depgive us of the great revenue lost by prohibition, which caused property to depreciate in value and loss of business. Feelipg that the lost revenue has caused taxes to be higher to meet the needed deficit, I among others made complaint, but the taxes were higher just the same. : Nashville being my native city I think a great deal of it and all my in- terests being here, of course, I want to see it prosper, but we cannot develop as we should, hampered with prohibition and fanaticism, and your city and state will have to face the same conditions that exist here and that we are now undergoing if statewide prohibition should be adopted. Our police rec'or_ds show an increase from one hundred to three hundred per cent per month in arrests since prohibition laws were enacted. I sincerely hope the voters there will consider seriously before casting their vote. i Respectfully, (Signed) C. C, WAGGONER. Nashville is a metropolitan jobbing city similar to Omaha. Prohibition would bring the same results to Omaha as it has brought to Nashville. A vast amount of trade now coming to Omaha would go to our commercial rivals in St. Joseph and Kansas City. In addition, prohibition would bring a decrease in property values and a heavy increase in taxes and in crime. Think it over. Douglas County Profierty Owners’ and Taxpayers’ League, M. J. GREEVY, Secretary. nn N N Grow With Grow « inéOaha
