Plans If Named
for Congress
V''
Diitrict Judge Prmifi Not
to "Go to Slfpp on Job"
and Work for Intrrriti
s of Rip Sixth.
Kearney, Neb., June Nl (Spe
eisl) Voters in the ISi Sixth dis
trirt ire enthused over the entrance
of Junge B. O. Hosteller in the re
for the republican nnminatmn lor
congress, to sunrrd Mor I'. Km
kaid. Hostetlrr ha presided over
the diitrict court bench here for IS
years. In a brief outline of hi poli
ciei he mure the voteri he will not
"go to leep on the job," neithrr will
he wear the collar of ipecial inter
eit. The statement in part said:
In becoming; a candidate for ron
tress. I beieve it my duty to state
briefly my view. My 18 years'
aervice ai district judge has taught
me to love justice. I do not believe
in class legislation for te benefit of
the few as against the masses. I was
brough up on a farm, and endured
the hardship! of pioneor farm life.
The businesa of the Sixth district is
largely agricultural and stock rais
ing, i snail tavor an legislation
that will improve the conditions of
the people engaged in those occu
pations.
Taxes too High.
The enormous tax burdens must
be reduced. The strictest economy
mu:t be practiced. Waste wherever
found must be eliminated, lhc
grafter must be prosecuted without
mercy, and when convicted he must
serve his full sentence.
I want a tariff law that does not
overlook the people of the Sixth dis
trict. I shall not vote for a law that
favors the New England manu
facturer and forgets the Nebraska
farmer. I believe in being jurt and
generous with the boys who fought
the world war for us. I favor the
irrigation plans and projects now in
effect, and that will hereafter be
promulgated in Nebraska. I shall
fight for the Lakes to the Ocean
waterways. I want the seaboard of
the Atlantic ocean at Chicago.
Will Aid Children.
I favor an amendment to the fed-
eral constitution, that will protect
the children of the nation.
i If elected. I shall not "go to sleep
on the ojb." I shall stand by and
help with all the power I may pos
sess, every legitimate business and
enterprise in the Big Sixth district.
I shall not wear the collar of the
special interests or "stand hitched"
while my countrymen are being
robbed.
Pawnee Sheriff
V Loses Gun Fight
Bootlegger! Overpower Guy
Avery and Escape One
Thought to Be Shot.
Pawnee City, Neb., June ,10.
(Special Telegram) Three armed
bandits escaped from County Sheriff
Guy Avery, as a result of a shooting
affray on the stat ehighway two
miles east of here. One of the gun
men is believed to be seriously
wounded.
Avery was called and went alone,
not knowing the nature of the busi
ness. He found a five-gallon keg of
whisky hidden at the corner of a
field. He hid. himself in the weeds
and sent a neighbor to call for help,
not expecting the owners of the
liquor until after dark.
At about 5:30 two men parked
their car opposite the spot and pro
ceeded to take the liquor. Avery
halted the bootleggers, stopped a
passing car and ordered Verne
Howard. the occupant, to put the
handcuffs on the men. Howard ac
cidentally locked the handcuffs be
fore getting them on. While Avery
was attempting to unlock them, a
third man appeared on the scene and
the three of them overpowered the
sheriff.
He was ordered to get into the
car at the point of a gun, but re
fused. The men then got into their
car and started down the road firing
back at the sheriff. At a short dis
tance they met Deputy County Clerk
Arthur Davis, who was coming to
help. Davis fired at the fleeing car
four times. He believes he hit the
driver.
The car was from Kansas. Local
parties are thought to be implicated.

head for the week before.
Sheep buyers made a good record
with the shipments of fat sheep and

Cat Loses Kitten Litter;
Now Mothering Baby Rats
Racine, O., June 10. While sweep
ing out the flouring mill here, the
owner found a nest of baby rats. He
turned them over to his mill cat, a
famous "ratter."
Tabby, however, had just lost a
litter of kittens. Instead of killing
the "little rodents, she carried them
to her nest and proceeded to cuddle
and feed them. he affection seems
mutual, as the old cat never lets the
rats put of her sight.
The owner of the mill says this
Story can be verified by a visit to his
mill.

(Continued From I'm fl One.)
tion of the acts under which' the
entire line was built, and observed
that "the obligation to keep faith
with the government continued, as
did the legislative power of con
gress concerning these roads, not
withstanding changed forms of own
ership and organization.
And the government proceeded,
by the suit decided last week, to com
plete the job of making the first
transcontinental line formed by those
two links entirely independent, and
free from rival control, which had
only been partially accomplished by
the decision in the Lnion Pacific
case.
Interest Was Recognized,
Although there was a clear recog
nition by the supreme court of the
special interest of. the Lnion Pacific
in the Central Pacific, as the owner
of one-half of the line built under
the Pacific railroad' acts, with the
aid of government bonds and land
grants, the Lnion Pacific, and no-
vvithstandniR the policy of the
Southern Pacific to favor the south
ern route, as stated by the supreme
court decision, the Union Pacific
has refrained thus far from taking
any part in the litigation between
the government and the Southern
Pacific.
"But we have been apprehensive
that in the case the supreme court
should decide in favor of the South
ern Pacific, it would yield to the
temptation to route even more of
this San Francisco and central Cali
fornia traffic in favor of its long
haul, and via the longer route
through El Paso, against the short
direct route through Ogden, -which
affords it a smaller division of the
through rate.
Apprehension Is Increased.
"This apprehension has been very
greatly increased by the tentative
consolidation plan promulgated by
the Interstate Commerce commission,
which, while leaving the Central Pa
cific with the Couthern Pacific, pro
vided for the merging of the Rock
Island with the Southern Pacific, thus
giving the latter a 100 per cent haul
over its own lines, via EI Paso, even
to the middle west, as well as to the
Atlantic seaboard, via New Orleans
and Galveston, which, quite natural
ly, it would be inclined to favor, as
far as it could control the traffic, as
against the short and direct haul
through Ogden.
"Such an arrangement the Union
Pacitic obviously would be interest
ed in opposing to the last resort, and
might be expected to take all neces
sary measures for the vindication oi
its rights under the Pacific Railroad
acts.
"Should Live Up to Act."
"The interest and rieht of the
Union Pacific is to see that the west
erly half of the federal railroad sys
tem from the Missouri river to the
Pacific ocean, of which the Union
Pacific is the easterly half, shall per
form its share of the duties imposed
by the Pacific railroad acts, which
provide for the operation pf the said
system as one connected continuous
line without discrimination of one
against the other by whomsoever op
crated. Now that the supreme court
has cancelled the lease and enjoined
the ownership of the stock of the
Central Pacific bv the Southern Pa
cific, and decreed the independence
of the Central Pacific as a competi
tor, in connection with the Union
Pacific and its connections, of the
Southern Pacific, via its El Paso
route, the Union Pacific is directly
concerned in the treatment and dispo
sition of the Central Pacific, to the
end that the through transcontinen
tal ilne which together they consti
tute, snail, in the language of the
supreme court, 'be able freely to com
pete with,' the Southern Pacifies
southern line 'to serve the oublic ef
ficiently, and to accomplish the pur
pose of the legislation under which
it was (they were) constructed."
U. P. Willing To Buy.
The Union Pacific is willing to buy
the Central Pacific from the South
ern Tacific if fair and reasonable
terms can be agreed upon. But it is
rot seeking to buy in Central Ta
eific, and it i not necesnsry for a
compliance with the detree of the
supreme court that it should
All the I'n on Pacific will ak is
that tit tVniral Paciiic be made an
intlri.rinliiit line ! be tipmti'd a
sudi, and that it per for in its dulieii
i the I iiioii ramie i performing H
duties under the IrgMation by which
they were both constructed and that
if it u to be merged into any system
under plan being worked out by the
Interstate Commerce romminion, it
be merced with the lnion racifie
with which it forms a continuous
transcontinental line, competing with
all others,
"It is inconceivable that the com
mission ever would even if it could
under the decisions of the supreme
court, put it in the power of the
Southern Tarific or any other com
pany operating and having a larger
interest in a rival and competing
line, to close this gateway, in the
face, so to speak, of the shortest and
by far the best and most efficient
transcontinental transportation line
and certainly the rights of the Union
Pacific, which is still bound, as is the
Central Paciiic, under the Pacific
railroad acts, are eititled to consider
at ion.
Active Propaganda On.
"There is very active propaganda
in California for the purpose of
working up public sentiment with
the idea, presumably, of influencing
the Interstate Commerce commis
sion to exercise some very doubtful
power in the premises, which need
not be commented upon now, further
than to say that according to reports
it has gone beyond the hounds of
possibility in representing the al
leged detrimental el feet that would
restijt from carrying out the supreme
court decree.
"The rates would not be more.
or the service less, if the Central
Pacific were made an independent
and competing line as ordered by
the supreme court, but every reason
just to the contrary; and, as for the
possibility of the Central Pacific be
ing merged with the Union Pacific,
no line has ever come under the
control of the Union Pacific which
has not been improved in service
and facilities to the public, and there
is no reason why the present in
stance should constitute an excep-
tiono m this respect.
Missionaries Visit Here.
