beet sugar factory costlnj oua and
a half million dollar, . '.
Sterling is not. as favorably sit
uated for, a aujjar factory aa is
Ndrth Platte; the land surrounding
it docs not produce as larjye a yield
per acre of beets, nor are thsy as
rich in suar.
But the psople of Sterling ,nre
active; they don't cit around and
w'alt for homctlun to turn up; they
rustle and turn feofnethinir up.
Thry unite. and boostand their
boosting brings results.
What Sterling has accomplished
North I'latte cun achieve
That is, it the people work to
gether. Results cannot be obtained by
oue class of citizens boosting aud
another class knocking.
We must all boost.
It is estimated that the new hc
tory will incrcasu Sterling' busi
ness to the extent ot 5250,000 per
year.
, A sugar factory ot similar propor
tions at North Platte would in
crease the business of the city to a
like extent.
Do we want to expand?
T3 we want to make North
Platte the best town in the state
and twicoltt the best county in the
state?
There is a way to do it.
Everybody work for an increased
acreage of sugar beets aud

Demand of Railroad Employes,
A distinct movement is discern
ible among railroad employes al
most universally to demand a sub
stantial increase ot wages. So
imminent is it that the Wall Street
Journal warns its readers, who arc
almost exclii6iyely of the invest
ing, speculative and capitalistic
classes, that the railroads of the
country are likely to be confronted
in, the next few months with the
alternative of paying more wages
or paying more money as the result
ot a strike, and it is significant that
that organ declares bucIi a retult
to be fully justified.
While there have been a consid
erable number of increases of the
wages of railroad employes, the
increases have by no meanB kept
pace with the increase of the cost
of living. The average increase ol
wages has been less than ten per
cent. The disposition of numerous
organizitions ot emplpyes is to de
mand a twenty per cent advance,
which would certainly not more
then put them abreast of the riBeof
the, commodities which constitute
their living, to say nothing ot
recoir.pensating the disparity from
whjcb they have for several years
suffered.
Aside from the equalization ot
their wagCB to subsistence cost, on
which ground alone public opinion
would sustain the demand of rail
road employes for the advance in
wages, the owners of the roads
have refused to make any equitable
concession from their profits.
These have been, enormous since
i8, 6o that the value of most ot
the stocks has in the meantime
doubled aud trebled. In fairness
the railroads should let go their
grasp upon some fraction at least
of the incalculable gains con
tTibuted by labor at not much more
than the old wages on the one hand
and the general public on the other.
An average increase of twenty per
cent on account of wages would re
quire less than two per cent of the
portion ot earnings now going
theoretically to stockholder, but a
far less per cent ol the portion in
lact accruing to them.
Railroad employes in theUnlted
States, who nrc thoroughly organ
ized, now unquestionably have it in
their power to force the corpora
tions to make just concessions.
The general public would be as
universally and decisively in sym
pathy witn the railroad wage earn
er as they have been with the nn
thrncite miners. The public has
equally felt the ficlfishue&B nnd ar
rogance of the transposition com
panies through their refusal of con-
cessions in tentorced contributions
for carriage aud through their un
varying rcustance to payment ot a
lair proportion of the tax burden.
Relief is within reach of railroad
employes if they have the courage
to seize it. Omaha Bee,

Cozad has established a quaran
