HniTQR Tribune: While a rail
road is being pushed from North
Platte up the North Platte river to
the Wyoming line, why cannot the
residents of the northeast part of
the county have the line extended
through their part of the county?
Numerous surveys have been
made running through that part of
the county in a northeasterly and
southwesterly direction. We be
lieve that the people of that part of
the county once voted bonds to
build a railroad on one of the many
surveyed routes.
The proposed extension would
extend from North Platte in a
northeasterly direction, passing
through portions of the settlements
of Willard, Whittier, Garfield and
Kilmer.and could terminate at Cal
laway for the present. Callaway
is at the end of a short line leading"
to the U. P. and B. & M. railroads
at Kearney.
The Union Pacific makes a great
sag to the south before it reaches
Omaha. This railroad line throujrh
Willard as indicated above is in
direct line from Nqrlli Platte to
Omaha and when completed would
save much time and many miles of
travel to the public
A railroad through tfyis part of
the county would; be near or along
gqrae of the original routes surveyed
from Duluth to the southwest, and
is a recognized line of future com
mercial importance.
The proposed extension would
pass through one of the most fertile
and prosperous table and valfey
lands of Lincoln county.
With the returning climatic
change Avhich gave to central Ne
braska so many prosperous years
and consequent happy homes, with
irrigating- developments constantly
increasing and in the light of pres
ent discoveries .of new process for
for beet sugar, whereby the refined
gyrup instead of the weighty raw
beets is sent to the refining factory,
makes the proposed extension
through the northeastern part of
the county one ot the most desirable
districts yet tapped by a new rail
road. With a sugar refinery at
North Platte, four railroads radiat
ing from it as a common center, the
Platte would be one of the leading
if not the very best city in western
Nebraska
Lines have been surveyed along
the proposed extention, bonds have
been voted, and it seems to me that
if the matter is properly looked
after what has been "accomplished
can be done again. I think the peo
ple along the entire line will hearti
ly co-operate in a movement t
secure a railroad. People interested
in the proposed line ought to meet
and take steps to lay the enterprise
before men who would be glad to
aid us. W. A. Gregg.

NEBEASKA NOTES.
Grace Minor, a sixteen vear old
Omaha girl is the latest convict to
escape jail. She picked the lock of
the woman's department of the jail
and leisurely walked out and off.
Chadron enthusiasts are again
working at a sugar factory bonus
and will endeavor to raise about
$35,000 to "sugar" some capitalist
to come there and build a factory.
Judge Post is now chief justice of
the Nebraska supreme court. The
judges rotate with relation to this
honor. Each third year's service
gives a judge the head place on the
bench. This is simply a rule of
the court.
Beatrice thinks of putting in an
electric light plant and ten miles of
equipment, together with machin
ery at a cost of $9,000; also an in
candescent system of 1,200 sixteen
candle power lights at an addition
al cost of $6,000.
J. J. Lynch, the retiring treas
urer ot Platte county, is reported
to be short in his accounts, the
amount ot the deficit stated to be
from $15,000 to-$41,000. He claims
he will be able to cover the defici
ency in a few days and that the
money has simply been loaned by
him.
The Independent points with
pride to the fact notwithstanding
the very dull tirqes :q thg neighbor
hood pf Grand Island a building
and loan association of that town
has increased its assets over $7,200
in six months. People are saving
what little money . thev ret their
lands on.
The last school enumeration tak
o
en in Nebraska gave a total of 10,-
000 fewer children th,aq the prev
ious p.ne. U'liis falling off is, doubt
ess due in part to emigration but
principally from the fact that the
taking of the census was not paid
or on the basis of the number of
childreu enrolled. The two factors
therefore, are the drouth and the
mercenary spirit.
SAVAGES OF THE NEW "WOMAN.
Rev. Dr. Mackey of New York
preached a sermon the other dav
against the new woman. His note
of alarm is to the effect tlat cheap
woman laoor is haniciiinn-
bred winners from thousands of
places in that city, to the derotra-
tion of labor and to the enrichment
of the capitalist. There are many
employments in which women can
do about the same work c
If the women received tli Mmo nw
as the man she displaced, the end
perhaps no harm would be done to
the ranks of labor, as the woman
employe would oe a bread winner
and the general result be the same.
The doctor points out that the
fact is far otherwise. The woman
who seeks the place of a male head
pf a family offers to do the work for
a sum vastly inferior to that of her
predecessor is receiviug. She does
not expect to support anybody, not
even herself with her waire. but
a
merely to pay a part of her own ex-
frp, iw w ...
r . v
tives at home.
Thousands of wnmpn nr rlninrr
"'"tj
ine woric m tne department stores
ot the large cities at less than the
Dare cost ot subsistence, while
. . .
thousands of male clerks who used
to get adequate pay are left out of
i
employment and their families suf-
ferthe pancrs of novertv. The
. VJ J. J
snops tnat employ this cheap labor
i.uauigu tu UUUC1SC11 LUUSC LllclL. I
adhere to the inexorable law of
competition to discharge their well
paid clerks and hire women at less
compensation than they pay for
kitchen or chamber maids, or go out
of business.
The doctor appeals to fathers
and mothers and to the
women themselves to withdraw
this ridiculously paid service from
the avenues of trade. He appeals
to mem eitner to demand man s pay
JL1 . I
for men's work or cease to crowd
the male wage earner out of em
ployment, He claims that the in
jury to laboriug people worked by
amateur candidates tor such posi
tions from among the ranks of
women not dependent on their
wages for a living is irreparable.
He even favors a law excluding
young women below a certain age
from the right to. work in .shops and
stores. Journal.
