Charley Bogue left last night for Los
Angeles and other California points on

iood of Railroad Trainmen.

pany with division oillcials. The road
bed, track, shops, stations and all
property of the company will bo in
spected. Tho party is expected to reach

Earnings of the Union Pacific for tho

?97U,142 over the Bamo month last year;

ng expenses and taxes, $1,182,055, an

Supt. Ware, of tho Nebraska division,
spent a few hours in town last evening,
coming up on No. 9 and returning on
No. 12. He informed us that beginning
noxt Monday, steel will bo laid on the
double track grade cast of tho bridge
for a distance of two or three miles
i.i order to relieve congested conditions
in the local yards. At Gothenburg,
Lexington ond Cozad the sidetracks
will be considerably lengthened, and
these will later form part of tho second
track.
Reports from tho big railroad systems
of the west show that the linns nro
overburdened with traffic and that an
approach is being mado in ull so tions
to the great volume of business handled
by these roads in the month boforo the
panic in 1907. In some sections tho '07
mark has been passed and 'n every sec
tion a demand for more care, and an
inability on tho part of tho railroads to
movn business so rapidly as is desired
because of power shortage is reported.
A few months ago long strings of idle
cars wero standing on storago tracks
and at shop centers long lines of en
gines were stored because the roads
hut no use for them, State Journal.

Will Continue Early Closing
A largely attended mooting of mer
chants was held at tho Common hi
Club rooms yesterday afternoon to dis
cuss and tnko further action on early
closing. Tho early closing has now been
in force for nearly two months, a time
sufficiently long to determine whether
tho plan is satisfactory. Practically
all present were of the opinion that
early closing had not resulted in loss of
trade, .and that it has proven a good
mbve, in that it shortened tho hodrs of
labor of tho merchant and clerk nlike.
The early closing will therefore bo
mado permanent, oxcept during tho en
tire month of December, when each
marchant will have the right to cloao
when he pleases. On the 19th of each
monthpayday on tho Wyoming divi
sionan exception will also bo made.
