The one-fare rate for the round trip Is to apply from nil points In Nebraska , In Iowa within 100 miles of Omaha , and In the Black Illlla of South Dakota. In addition to this rate there will bo n provision that no Ne- liraskan shall > bo charged more than $ C for hl.i railroad faro , a tilanket rale of $ r ,50 , In cluding an ndmlsslon coupon , having been announced by all railroads In the state. These ratoi have JURI been greatly emphasized by the decision of the Morchantn" Inireiu of the Omaha Commercial club to liohl Its second excursion of western merchants Into Qmnha during next week , The Initial excursion of this organization was held lant week , and was a pronounced success. Nearly 500 merchants wore brought Into this city , a number of whom were In the habit of buying elsewhere. They were granted a reduced rate of OIK * and one-third regular fnre for the round trip , and If 2 per cent of their bills of purchase at the local wholesale houses equaled or exceeded their railroad faro the price of their transporta tion was refundi.il to them through the Mer chants' bureau of the Commercial club. So great was the success of the experiment that nnothcr excursion will be held along the samp lliifH next week , when the merchants will have nn opportunity to witness the most gorgeous street pageants ever offered hy any .western . city. Clerks have been busy In the Commercial elub rooms for the last live- days mailing out circulars announcing the second excursion of the Merchants bureau of the club for next week. Fifteen thousand circulars have been sent to the merchants of Nebraska , western Iowa , northern Kansas and South Dakota. WORK OI > ' MERCHANTS' HITHKAU. It Is Impossible to tell what proportion of these Invitations will bo accepted , as replies are not requested. Commissioner Utt of the Commercial club said : "As a largo number of the incrclmitB to whom wo are sending out these invitations for next week are al ready members of the Merchants' bureau It will not be necessary for them to write us of their intention to toke advantage of the opportunities offered for next week. They will not write , but will just pack tholr grips and come. The attendance of the State fair this year long ago promised to eclipse all previous records , but now that the Merchants' bureau of the Commcrclil club lias sent out 15,000 Invitations to the mer chants of this and nearby states , I believe that the crowd of visitors wo shall see liere next week will bo so great that com parison with the attendance of previous years will b'e almost Impossible. " Hoth the Union Pacific and the Missouri Pacific railroads are pulling out a quantity' of advertising matter for their trains to and from the State fair grounds. Cards announc ing this service are being put In the promi nent windows tabont 'town , and veal pocket editions of the train schedules are being Ex tensively circulated. The Union Pacific cards are In red and blue colors , adorned with the fa'mlllar shield of the "Overland Iloutc. " The Missouri Pacific advertising ap jears In Ak-Sar-Ilcn colors. "Tho Union Pacific will run special trains to the State fair grounds from Council Bluffs and Omaha every twenty miuutcs during thii days of the State fair. A oeparato line will bo operated between South Omaha and the Btato fair. The Missouri Pacific trains will bo run from Webster street station , and part of them will make stops at these stations : Oak Chatham , Druid Hill. Lake street , Wal nut Hill and West Side Junction. CHEAT PAIIADDS NEXT WEEK. Thomas A.

The telephone company was represented by Its attorney , and the greater part of the afternoon was occupied by the ar guments of the attorneys on the objection raised by the telephone com pany thtt the board has no jurisdiction In the cafe ; that the law of 1897 , by which the Towers of the board were extended to cover1 telegraph , telephone anil express comiianbs , was not constitutionally passed , and that In any case the secretaries of the board have no right to act on the matter. Mr. Morscman occupied nearly three hours In submitting arguments and authorities to bear out his contention. Ho urged that the law by which the powers of the board were extended was amendatory of the pre vious law. In that case It was not con stitutional for the reason that It did not con tain the sections thus amended , nor did It repeal those sections. It did not define the powers which It attempted to confer , but merely provided that the board should have the ramo power over thcsu corporations that It hud over the railroads , llo urged that this was an important question as far as the telephone company was concerned , In that It Involved the question whether the affairs of a private corporation should be Investigated , supervUcd and practically man aged by thn board. Ho did not want this decided by the secretaries , but by the full board and the attorney general of the state. Mr. Yolssr occupied the remainder of the afternoon In Introducing authorities In re buttal. Ho held that a law could refer to another law without being amendatory of It. and that the law of 1897 was In no way an amendment to that of 1SS7 , The objection was then taken under ad visement by the secretaries with the state ment that a decision would bo announced as soon as possible.

To the Editor of The Bee : I am accused of working for the sue cess of the republican party. Well , why not ? There are but two to choose from As between two evils 1 must choose the least If I am to be honest. Hut I am 110 choosing. I have been denied the oppor tunlty of supporting n populist and feel Ilia I have Ihe right to criticise the acts o thoio who deprived mo of the privilege o supporting ope of my own party. I voted a democratic ticket in 1S52 , mj first vote and last one with that party There has been nothing In the history o that party lo Inspire confidence or encour age hope for all llicso last forty years. Its iccord Is oue of false promises and an out- of-date party. Why men who have bcei educated In our modern schools could be come democrats has been o mystery and wll continue to be to the end of time. I voted for Mr. Lincoln Iwlce , and Granl twice and have long been convinced thai ] voted for Grant once too often. 1 believe where there Is more of evil than of good In a party In letting It alone. Let the flghl go on , bill keep clear of it. There would be but two votes In Ne braska this fall for .supreme judge , one for each candidate. If I had the bossing of the job. No man or set of men can complain when their mandates nre nol obeyed. There Is no candidate chosen by the pe-ople's party for the office of supreme judge. No com plaint can be made If populists refuse to support a democrat. There Is an old guard left that has borne the brunt of the battle- tor twenty-five years. The English lan guage has been exhausted time and again to make us appear mean and contemptible. Wo are not dogs and do not have to lick the hand that strikes us. Wo do not have to tamely submit to being thrown to an old , corrupt , defunct party , nnd resurrect It from Its own folly nnd crimes. To bo coolly told that the democrats are "Just EH much In favor of reform as the popiillstK" Is an Insult to every populist In the land. Do their platforms prove their words ? Wo will not get what wo do not ask for. Wo have supported ono man who would not accept our nomination or our platform. Senator Jones , chairman of the democratic national committee In 1SUC and now. Intro duced a bill In the Fifty-third congress on January 23 , 1895 , that would have retired our greenbacks and Increased our bonded debt $500,000,000. Is that populist doctrine , and how long has It been KO ? Why do I let the republicans alone ? They are our avowed and open enemies , but the ( her fellows come to us In the name of 'friends , " "almost populists , " "there s no difference between us , " "they would coma to us , but we arc demanding too much , " "better take half a oaf lhan no bread , " which all goes to prove they are not with us In principle or purpose at all. The new reformers are made of more refined timber than tno old ones. We could fever our party ties without doing violence to our feelings. These new-fangled fellows arc a finer grained lot. Their hair s soft and flno. Their party tics are sitred , We must respect their love for party , even at the sacrifice of our principles. Hut I am told the republicans will again net pOHsosslon of the state If we do not vote 'he mongrel ticket. Wo have known for a eng time that the time would came when hero would be but two parties. Would It tot bo a pretty mcs for populists to keep a bird party alive ? We have been doing that n Nebraska until It Is fa id the democrats i old from f > 5 to 70 per cent of the appointive offices , while they have furnished but about cue-eighth of the votes. Again wo are told "wo will destroy Ihe people's parly " That Is a barefaced state ment , coming from men who are all fusion To dissolve ; to melt ; to bo molted ; to melt Webster ) . If they will look back down tlu > ino they will see that tbo man who has stood In the way of reform \ the same man who has always been for fusion. When fusion goes so far as to ask the people to wait for them to raise up a genuia- lon educated to believe free coinage of silver a all wo need they ought not to complain f wo decline tholr Invitation.

The ordinance introduced by Councilman lecuel last !
