KPOiCAJNE. Wash.. Ort 7 Spokane
caw the close, tonight of one of the most
Interesting days of President Taft's trav
els through the west. The I day was
spent In northern Idaho and eastern
Washington, the principal stopping; places
being Walla Walla, Wash.; Lewiston and
Moscow, Idaho.
For many hours the presidential train
wound Its way through the famous Snake
river canon and from his car window the
president saw some of the most unique
farms in the entire United States. From
the water's edge these farms rose in
rolling; billows to the benches and hill
tops on either side of the canon; at some
places they seemed almost perpendicular,
but everywhere was wheat stubble, indi
cating that the last crop of the year had
been safely harvested. All of the farms
were In the dry farming district where
the crops are raised without the aid of
Irrigation.
Governor Hay of Washington met the
president at Walla Walla and accom
r,anid him to this city tonight. The
rovernor In his first Introductory speech
of the day declared hlmbelf in favor of
Mr. Taft's renomlnation.
Speaks oil Big; Business.
A second Interesting development was
the repetition by President Taft at
Lewiston of portions of his Waterloo
utterances on the relation of the gov
ernment to business. We have put the
railroads under control, he said, "and
they acquiesce in it. For a time they
were defiant. Now, under the steady ac
tion of congress in increasing the power
of the Interstate Commerce commission
they have realised that the whole people
re greater than any part of the people.
that the whole people, if they move in
one direction and are determined to con
trol and bring about a Just condition are
likely to win in the end, however often
they may be defeated in reaching that
purpose. 8o, too, with respect to our
trusts. The Industrial combinations that
lisve controlled prices are now, under the
anti-trust act and are beginning to feel
the heavy weight of the hand of the
law."
"There axe trusts in process of prosecu
tion." the president continued, "but my
own hope is that they will all recognize
that the Standard Oil and Tobacco dec!
slons were epoch making decisions, that
they are bound to change the course and
tendency of bneiness. If they had not.
gentlemen. I doTiot know where we would
have gone. Everything would have been
n a trust. The only rescue from that
would have been state socialism." -
On Currency II r form.
Referring to the need of reform In the
currency system of the country, Mr. Taft
aid:
"There baa been a plan devised by the
monetary commission. The plan has not
been agreed upon in detail, but it is hoped
that It will be so arranged that neither
Wall street nor th& political powers in
the government will have influence in
reepect to the issue of currency to meet
the demands of the market.
The president spoke of the prosperity
of the farmers and tho hope of extending
the usefulness of the Postoffice depart
ment through a parcels post system. -
"With the parcels post, with rural free
delivery." he concluded, "with the tele
phone, the farm prices doubling every ten
years, apparently the farmers will be.

the United States will be found in the

Nemaha Bar Makes
Statement on Charges
Against Official
AUBURN, Neb.. Oct S.-(Spe.-aJ 1-A
meeting of the Nemaha ccinty bar was
held this morning In the office of Kelll
er & Ferneau to Investigate the charges
made before the governor by Henry Mor
garstem against Fred C. Hawxby. county
attorney. It developed that the county
attorney' hsd filed a precipe for a raplas
for the arrest of William F. Semi on
September 23. and that Morganstern had
notice thereof on September S3, yet not
withstanding said notice, he on October
3 sltntei and swore to the complaint.
which was on October 4 filed with the
governor. It also developed that Mor
ganstern had previously been demanding
the prosecution of Seaman, and that the
county attorney took time to Investigate
same, and ascertain whether the pres
ence of the witnesses rould bo obtained,
since the two most important witnesses
lived In Iowa.
It further appeared that when the In
dictment was returned by tho gram Jury,
Seaman was confined In the Kansas pen
itentiary at Lansing, nnd was pcrvlng
an Indeterminate sentence; that nbuut
the time of the return of the Indictment
the Board of Pardons had recommended
the release of Seaman, but on account of
the fact that he was wsnted In .Nebraska
he could not be released so long as he
was thus booked, n.nd could not be turned
over to the Nebraska authorities until the
end of his sentence: that as a conse
quence he served two extra years In the
Kansas penitentiary, and was released a
little over a year ago with the consent of
the county attorney of this vounty, who
had investlcated the
vinced that Seaman was rifprmed and
was trying to live an honorable life,
and considering the fact that i.n.i
served two extra years, believed he !md

One Thousand Exchange Men Are

in Omaha Today.

COME FROM ALL OVER COUNTRY
Committees Organized to Take Care
of Many Visitors.

Matters of Importance to Grain Men
Will Be Discussed.
SOUTH OMAHA TO ENTERTAIN

tales go to Brtiia- Delegations
from All Parts of Kaat to
Omaha Convention.
According to the estimate of John F
Courcler of Toledo the convention of the
National Grain Dealers' association.
which meets this morning, will bring to
Omaha at least 1 W0 visitors from other
American cities. Mr. Courcter is the sec
retary-treasurer of the organisation s"d
Its executive officer by virtue of his po
Fltinn.
Omaha was selected ss the place for
holding this convention because of tti
tremendous strides the local grain msr
ket has been making since its establish
ment a few years ago. The very heavy
receipts of grain at this terminal point
have been attracting the Interested atten
tion of the grain dealers throughout the
land, and the selection of Omaha as the
place for their annual meeting signifies
the local market Is now ranked among
the best and most promising in the land.
Many among those who are coming to
this convention have never before set
foot In Nebraska, and those who have
been through this section of the west on
business or pleasure have been telling
tales of Its wonders that aroused a keen
desire among their friends to see for
themselves the wonderful development
of which they have heard so much.
All Promises la B Kept.
F. S. Cowglll, who was mslnly Instru
mental in landing the grain dealers' con
vention for his home city, Is one msn
who is going to see to it that all prom
ises are made good. He has the active
assistance of N. P. Updike, chairman
of the committee; E. P. Peck. Sherman
Saunders and F. P. Manchester, secre
tary of the Omaha exchange.
In its line, this Grain Dealers' associa
tion la the greatest In the world, ail
things considered. It takes In the men
who own, run or manage the small ele
vators along the railroad lines, as well
as the heaviest dealers in grain on the
various exchanges of the country. Its
members actually buy or handle about
all the grain that Is raised and shipped
in the Untied ptatea. . They are body
of men more than ordinarily well in
formed as to the material conditions In
the agricultural Industry at all times,
from ocean to ocean; 'and naturally, too,
they keep a sharp lookout as to the con
ditions existing In the markets of the
world. Not only are they keenly inter
ested in the amount and the price of
grain, but they take a very lively part
In the settlement of all questions that
arise between producers and shippers and
the railroads of the land. On their pro
gram at this, as well as at every con
vention, place Is irlven to masters jd
experts ' in the various phases of the '
trade. Thus, by attending the annual
conventions, the members are enabled to
gain Information that is, educational as
well as informing.
Will Talk Soilness.
"We get down to brass tacks In our
discussion," said one leading grain man.
"The experience gained in buying, selling
and shipping throughout the year is here
given voice by the men who handle at a
thousand different points the immense
grain business of this country. Obstacles
met and overcome are discussed in the
most practical fashion, and mistakes"' are
pointed out as freely as advances in the
transaction of thia vast business are
elucidated. Only those actively engaged
In the- buying, shipping and selling of
grain can appreciate the extent to which
this business is involved In the general
prosperity, - or otherwise, of the United
States. State laws are not yet ail uni
form In the details that directly affect
the grain business, but great progress
has been made along this line."
One peculiarity of a great gathering of
"grain men" is that It brings together
so many men who are most excellent
Judges of values. Aside from the men
whe spend their business days in the
"line" elevator, these delegates who are
to assemble tn Omaha today have "a

Balaore Sheet Shows Road's 1 u-

terest Money Loaned to
Proprietary Companies.
With the operating Income of the road
about JOOO.OOO less than In lniO, with oper
ating expenses nearly W .000,000 more, and
with taxes Increased 4.00 per cent, the
Noreswestern railroad has earnet 8 20 per
cent on Its $162,512,334 outstanding pre
ferred and common stocks during the last
year, against 9.08 per cent for the previous
year. While the expenses of the roafl
have increased so as to preclude a sur
plus of this proportion from that sou ice
the gain Is placed under the head of
"lntertst on other secorltles and loans."
The Wall Street Journal believes tho
dividends have come from subsidiary
companies and that it does not neces
sarily follow that they will produce thlb
year. The Journal says:
"There was no change In the com
pany's equity in the Omaha and Union
Pacifgio properties, but dividends from
other sources showed an Increase of SI 16, -971,
or 7.33 per cent. Although the' details
are not given in the report, these divi
dends evidently came from subsidiary
companies which have no stated period
for making disbursements. Hence It does
not follow that lsst year's gains in
reenue from these sources will be main
tained, for these receipts have shown
wide fluctuations from yar to year. Hark
ing back only to l'.'lO. there was a de
crease of $291 942 from 1306's figures."
An Incerastd dividend of .30 per rent
was paid on common stock, being 8 30 per
cent on the 1,H!.M vemraon stock out
standing. The total Increase In revenues
for the year was more than tSOO.oM, and
the dividends paid were 2.S per cent
greater.
Freight revenue ran behind that of 1910
by nearly SiOJ.nOO, while passenger, other

revenues increased $1354,381, passenger

COST OF PAY1NGC0MES DOWN
Omaha is Getting Work Done at
Lowest Figure in History.
SAVING TO PROPERTY OWNERS
At Least fTB.OOO Will Be Cat Off
the Bill for the Cnrnnt Year
as Resalt of Cempetl.
lon. n
Here's a paradox: With everything else
going up in price Omaha Is getting Its
paving dons cheaper than ever.
The last contracts let for paving, in
September, were at the rate of $1.70 per
yard for asphalt and $1.95 for vitrified
brick. When you contrast this with the
good old prices of $2.60 to $3 per yard
for asphalt and $2.76 to $3 per yard for
brick, you will note a difference, a sav
ing to the publlo that amounts to some
thing. Of course, these extreme prices
have not prevailed of recent years, but
paving is still In service in Oinsha that
was put down at those figures.
Redaction Came la Maree.
Real reduction In the cost of psvlng
to the consumer began with the letting
of contracts In March of this year, and
It Is now figured that on the work done
in 1011 a saving to ths property owners
of at least $75,000 on the figures of 1910
has been effected. Here is a little show
ing that will support the proposition thst
it is a good thing, to have competition
even in the matter Of paving:

.Season not yet finished
Navlnsj for the Year,
The city engineer estimates thst the
paving to be finished yet this year will
amount to more than was Is id last sea
son. If only an equal amount is laid,
the saving to property owners, based on
the average reduction In price per yard,
is $68,345. But the larger proportion of
the paving was let at the minimum price,
which brings the saving still higher, so
that the estimate of $7b.0W is not far
out of the way.
M. Ford of Cedar Rapids, la., who in
troduced the Buffalo paving brick In
competition with the Purtngton brick, for
which Charles E. Fanning has the
monopoly, started the cost of paving on
the down grade in Omaha, He also went
after Hugh Murphy on ths asphalt work,
and brought down prices on that material
also. However, no division of work
amung contractors has been possible this
st-afun. for the competition has destroyed
that form of combine most effectively.

ning the James Gordon Bennett troj-hy
in the International balloon race which
started from this city Thursday, Lieu
tenant Hans Gericke. pilot of the Berlin
11, was lost to the world for the third
time.
The Berlin 11 landed in the wilderness
near Holcoinb, Wis., at 7 o'clock Satur
day morning, thereby traveling aavanty
flve nillta further than Its competitors
In the rare.
Last night, after all the entries in ths
race had been htard from, a telegram
was sent by the Aero club of Kansas
City, to FYed C. Alnsworth. adjutant gen
eral of Jhe United States army, asking
that all life-saving stations, signal corps
and others In the government service in
the Great Lakes region bt requested to
look for the German balloon.
Shortly after this telegram was sent
a mcssitge wss received from Lieutenant
Gericke telling of his landing at Lady
smith, Wis., at 7 o'clock yesterday morn
ing, having traveled 4K8 miles. Gericke
and his aide. F. O. Duncker, who came
from Germany with the pilot, landed In a
wilderness, uninjured, but were unable
to reach a telegraph station before mid
night. Three Times Lost.
Lieutenant Gericke waa also given up as
lost last year In the international race
which started from Bt. Louie In the
German balloon, Dusseldorf II, he was
in the air forty-two hours, traveling 1,100
miles and landing In the wlldernecs of
Canada, from which he and his aide
emerged four days later after a narrow
escape from starvation.
Oericke's second time to be given, up for
lost waa lsst summer, when he went up
from Berlin in the German elmlnation
race. He drifted out over the North sea.
He was sighted in England, but was
again lost from view over the North sea.
He finally landed in Franc. :

The nearest rival ef the German
balloon In this year's race waa the
Buckeye, piloted by Lieutenant Frank
Lahm of the United States array. It
landed near La Crosse. Wis., 370 miles
from Kansas City. Lieutenant Lahm and
his side, J. H. Wade, landed tn a awamp
suffering greatly from the cold. . They
had encountered a severe storm after
passing over Chicago and drifting out
over Lake Michigan. They met a south
ward current which completely changed
their course. They tried to rise above
thlN, but succeeded only In finding a
current which carried them westward.
They were both worn out and exhausted
with their nine-hour vigilant and decided
that they land.
The French balloon, Condor II, Emll
Dubonnet, pilot, and Pierre Dupont,
aide, after swinging over Lake Michigan
an hour or more Friday drifted back to
within twenty miles of Dcs Moines, la.,
and b miles from Kansas City.
In winning this year's race Germany
has taken the Bennett cup from America,
into whose possession tt would have
permanently fallen if this country had
been victorious. Amotica had won the
championship for two successive years
and a victory this year would haye ended
this international series. The next race
will be held In Germany.

Roosevelt gave bis fellow townsmen some
advice sbout their civic duties last night

Within the past few months Oyster Bay
has had three murders and none of the

Colonel Roosevelt made tbts his theme
and declared that In such eases It was
ths duty of every man In town to get out
and help run down the murderers. Aa
the result of the ea-presldent's urging

of a regular police force In place of the
two constables who now do duty only
on special occasions.
While Colonel Roosevelt waa speaking
some one outside of a window shouted
"fire" and In a Jiffy the ball waa almost
deserted. It proved a false alarm and
after a fruitless search fur the joker the
townspeople returned, to hear Colonel
