Electric Light Plant Sold. .
Lester W. .Walker, superintend
ent ol the North Platte Electric
Light Co., and part owner of
the plant, received a letter yester
day morning from J. J. Henry stnt
iug that the latter had sold his
stock in the company to Colorado
parties and asking Mr. Walker to
place a price on the stock held by
him. Simultaneous with the letter
came A. G. Tiffany, who will on
next Monday succeed Mr. Walker
as superintendent of the plant.
l ins change was somewhat of a
surprise to Mr. Walker as he hnd
no direct intimation that Mr.
Henry had a sale of the plant in
view. Mr. Walker will dispose of
his stock to the new purchaers,
and will probably seek a new field.
To Mr. Walker 1b largely due the
credit ot having an electric lierht
system, and his management Of the
piani nas oeen very satisfactory to
tjje patrons. He is, a very compe
tent electrician and to him Is due
the excellent working of the sys
tem. The Fair Sale Continued.
At the beginning of the Manu-
facturers' End Sale at the Fair
Sto're it was the intention, and was
so announced, that the n)e would
close Novembar 15th. The patron
age accorded the sale has, however,
been so large, and so many requests
for a continuance have been made,
especially by those who have a pay
day n-xt weelr, that Air. Kichards
has decided to continue the Bale all
all of next week, closing November
22d. The purchasing public will
no doubt b( glad to learn that this
bargain-harvest offered by The
Fair is to be extended a week
longer and they will not be slow to
diow their appreciation ot Mr.
Richard1 action tn extending it a
week. The opportunity to buy
reliable merchandise at fuch low
figures as nre'ofTered by The Fair
seldom comes to the residents of
North Platte and Lincoln county.

RAILROAD NOTES,
Supt. R. W. Baxter spent yes
terday In town coming up lrom
Omaha the evening before.
Freight traffic on the Union Paci
fic has fallen off to some extent,
but as yet no reduction has been
made in the number of train crews,
Archie Campbell, a second dis
trict brakeman, had his right foot
badly crushed at Wood River yes
terday. He was also bruised on
the head.
An employe of the U, P. coal
chutes named McGinn received a
fall yesterday which resulted in
several ugly gashes on his face
and head.
Engine 1859, pulling passenger
train No. 4, and two mail cars 'were
turned over in the Grand Island
yards last night by running
through an open switch. No one
was hurt.
Several of the 1700 class ot
freight engines have been supplied
with high wheels and will be put
into passenger service. Two of
these remodeled engine 1725 and
1704 passed west today and will
run between Sidney nnd Cheyenne.
An Omaha paper states that dur
ing the past week or ten days the
non-union force a't'the! Union Pa
cific shops iu that city has dwindled
lrom 645 to 220. Very few strike
breakers arc being imported by the
company, due it is said, to the in
ability to get men whose services
arc worth having.
The Union Pacific BtrikerB have
fitted up cheerful quarters 111 a
front room over the One Minute
Coffee House on Front street, and
meet there regularly for the trans
action of businesB, The quarters
5'lso serve as a reading room for
those who have leisure time during
tJie day or evening.
The general committee of the
Order ot Railway Trainmen, which
s now in session in Omaha, will
demand the same increase of wages
which was granted the lines
terminating iu Chicago, namely
about twelve per cent. The com
mittec is confident that the Union
Pacific will grant the demands and
that a strike is a remote possibility.
In the annual report of the Union
Pacific made public this week it is
announced that the failure of the
corn crop in one tfccliou traversed
ny me company's, lines was onset
by an extra yield in other sections
and bv an enormous increase in the
shipments of industrial products.
There was appropriated from1 the
year's income f 2,000,000 for better-
merits improvements and equip
mcnt, an increase ot 5500,000.
A strike breaker came to Omaha
yesterday from North Platte, who
claimed that he had been robbed ot
?3l&0 by other.'strikc breaker-' in the
employ or iue, union i-acuic. tie
said that he had saved that amount
out ot his earnings and his fellow
workmen succeeded in wielding an
influence over him sufficient to di
vest' of him his stronir box. He
came to Omaha to lay his hurdens
before William Canada, chief of the
Union Pacific's detective force.

THE MODEL,
men on, other lines have taken
courage, and it is thought that the
Union Pacific will readily accede
to the demands of its employes.
The present strike on the Union
Pacific is counted on as an advan
tageous element for the trainmen,
for it i thought the company has
about all the labor difficulty in
this strike it cau well care for.
President Burt is quoted by an
Omaha paper as saying that the
Union Pacific trainmen are not
thinking of an increase in wage,
and that they will not be so un
wise as to ask for an advance. It
correctly quoted, President Burt is
ignorant of facts that are generally
known, vide, that the trainmen
will demand an increase of pay,
and that a refusal to accede to the
demands will result in compli
cations that will make the present
fnbor trouble on the road seem of
minor importance.
