YOUNG MEN'S
CLOTHING.....
Of Proper Style and
At Reasonable Prices
Is rather difficult to find. This is be
cause there is really very little differ
ence in the cost of manufacture between
young men's and men's sizes. The only
difference is in the quantity of material
used. The tailoring costs precisely the same. Wc,
however, recognize that young men, or boys, as their
mothers prefer to call them, must have clothes of smaller
cost than men; clothes must be stronger at many points
than men's clothes. "Wc solved the problem -by simply
cutting off a big portion of our legitimate profit on Young
Men's Suits, which is the only way. wc can sell garments
of exceptional quality at popular low prices.

The Subject Most
Discussed.
An Important Innovation.
The Omaha Bee of last Saturday
says that an important innovation
relative to the operating employes
of the Union Pacific railroad com
pany will be inaugurated Septem
ber 1. It will be the introduction
of the system of discipline by re
cord, and after its operation begins
the suspension of employes from
duty, with consequent loss of time,
will be discontinued. Instead of
this practice, which has been in
dulged in from the beginning of
the history of the Union Pacific
system, discipline will be main
tained by reprimand, book suspen
sion or dismissal from the service.
When an employe has had a rep
rimand or a suspension entered on
his record satisfactory service for a
given length of time will cancel the
debit side ot the account. A rep
rimand will be canceled by a clean
record ot three months, five days of
suspension canceled by a clean
record of six mouths and so on
until sixty days of supsensiou will
will be wiped off the list by a clean
record of eighteen months. In this
way an employe who through some
act of indiscretion or inattention to
duty gets a suspension charge
against him, instead of being com
pelled to quit work, continues on
with his duties and by performing
satisfactory service for a certain
length of time is enabled to clear
up his record.
