The railroads are preparing i
interrogate the postmaster geueri
inquiring as to what the railroac
can carry as "railroad business'
which has been a mooted questio
for some time. The railroads war
to know definately where they ar
at on that question.
The Burlington has signified it
intention of building a depot i
Omaha , and will not wait for othe
roads to join in the enterprise

The decision of the Unitei
States supreme court in the Elm
wood elevator case comes as a mil <
surprise. It will be rememberec
that the Missouri Pacific railroai
company declined to allow the erec
tion of an elevator on laud belong
ing to that corporation , notwith
standing an order from the stat <
board of transportation. It appear
ed that in this case the Farmers
alliance of Elmwood had sough
and was refused , the privilege oj
erecting a grain elevator at the
town of Elmwood , and that npor
this refusal the board of transportation -
tation issued an order requirino
the company to grant the privilege.
The Nebraska supreme courtwhen
appealed to , rendered a decision
adverse to the company , " which took
out a writ of error to the United
States supreme court. Justice
Gray , in the course of his opinion ,
said the case involved no question
of ratesbut that carefully analyzed ,
it appeared as a case in which a
voluntary association of persons
sought to secure for themselves
certain privileges from the railroad
company and to compel the * dona
tion of land for elevator pupoBes.
He dwelt upon the fact that the
alliance was not a corporation , bnt
was a voluntary association of in
dividuals. Under these circum
stances , he said , the court was
unanimously of the opinion that
the proceeding wa3 an attempt to
take private property for private
use , without due process of law and
in violation of the Fourteenth
amendment to the constitution.
