The state railway commission at
Lincoln has received a request from
A. II. Sirkman 2nd twenty-seven
other residents of Tipton precinct in
western Cass county, asking that
the commission compel the Missouri
P.-.cific railroad to cut the weeds
along its riiht of way in that pre-
Cilict.
The law gives the commission no
jurisdiction. It provides that if rail
:o:m's do not mow their right of way
land between July and August 15
then it is the duty of the road over
r to do so and take his pay from
the county peneral fund at the rate
of T.."iO a day for one man. mower
and team. The county is authorized
to charpe the expense against the
railroad and collect it as other taxes
are collected.
Census Takers Count 10,904 Vehicles
on Dodge County Highways
in 15 Hours Sunday.
Fremont, Neb., Aug. IS. An ac
tual check by census takers Sunday
showed that 10,904 vehicles traveled
on state highways in Dodge county
between the hours of 6 a. m. and 9
p. m. The census was taken in co
operation with the federal govern
ment collecting data on road con
struction. Of 10,904 vehicles, 4,272
cars were from Dodge county, 5.603
cars from outside, mostly from
Omaha and 927 autos were from
other states. There were S4 trucks
enumerated and a total of fourteen
horse drawn vehicles.
The heaviest travel was on the
Lincoln highway where George Wolz
state counsel of the Lincoln high
way association was in charge of the
census takers. They were stationed
about five miles east of Fremont at
the junction of the highway and the
Elk City road, where Wolz sought
to compare the difference in travel.
His group of census takers counted
4,192 cars at the junction of these
two paved roads and of this total
3.2 4 S were either Dodge or Douglas
county cars.
Only one horse drawn vehicle
ventured on this auto infested high
way. Traffic was nearly equally di
vided in its choice of roads between
the Lincoln highway and tho Elk
City or Military highway road.
There were 1.34S Douglas coun
ty cars traveling on the Elk City
road while 1,194 favored the Lincoln
highway.
Twenty-five states were represent
ed in the data gathered with Iowa
cars the most frequent.
On the Cornhusker highway cen
sus takers at the Platte river bridge
south of Fremont counted 1,505 ve
hicles. The six mile stretch of pave
ment from Fremont to Ames carried
2,095 curs.

Kenneth Schultz was a visitor In
Omaha yesterday for a few hours,
while arranging to go on to North
Dakota to work on a farm in that
state. Kenneth has just recovered
from his broken leg and finds that
the work he previously had in the
packing house was too severe for his
present condition.
Ed was unable to secure the number
of the car and by the time the theft
was reported and the police arrived
on the scene the parties taking the
tires were out of the vicinity and
all trace of them lost as well as the
tires. The great demand for tires
and inner tubos and the easy way in
which they can be disposed of makes
tire stealing a very profitable indus
try judging from the energy with
which it has been plied here in this
locality.
