Time to Get Together.
As a representative of tlio third
party the public which hns been In
jured by the prolonged strike lot the
Union Pacific employes, Tho Tribune
believosthnt concerted
action on .the
part of business men arid othora should
l)o tnkon In a effort to induce tho com
pany and Bho'pmon to get together nnd
end the strike
K Without discussing the Inerits of
th (propositions involved, but giving
tho mun the credit of conducting the
triko on the Union Pacific In n very
decent and orderly manner, it must be
admitted by all that tho strike has been
a costly one to the three parties directly
concerned - the mun, the company and
tho public. To the men it has been a
loss of wages that a majority Jo f thorn
can ill afford to lose; in fact in some
few cass at least, the men and their
families havo actually suffered fdr tho
lnck of actual necessities of life. The
strike should therefore bo settled as a
humantnrian net, if nothing else.
The direct as well us indirect loss to
the compnny has been enormous; that
such is true is shown by the published
decreased earnings in November and
Decembor. Porhnps tho officials and
tho directors figure that in order to do
feat certain demands made by the men
they can nfford to lose a million or two,
but in view of the present anti-corpor
ation ngitntion, it is policy for nj rail
ronti to "Do good or at least as
good as possible '
Next to tho men the public, and es
pecially 'tho business men nt the div
ision terminals, havo been tho worst
losers. It is not only tho decreased
trade from tho men involved, but the
strike hns an effect on other people
not involved, it causes them to draw
their purso strings tighter, it defers
renl estate transactions; contemplated
improvements are held back in fact
it deadens a town in all particulars. It
is true that tho number of men employed
in tho shops isnunrlyas great as before
tho strike, but these men nrc of littlo
qr no value so far as trado is con
corned. They aro boarded and lodged
III U10 Bliona. tnev so Horn eomn nvor
trjltown; they earn a bunch of tnonuy
and thon'seok other fields. They don't
como to North Platte for tho purpose
of making it their homes. ZZZ.;
A largo porcentago of tho North
Plntto shopmen who aro out on n striko
aro homo owners; they nro respected
citizens; thoy support our schools and
our churches; they nro part and pnrcel
of tho business of our city.
What is written nbpvo is not new;
all aro conversant with tho facts; tho
object is to cnll nttention of our bus
inesu men to uso as fnr as possiblo
their influonco in inducing tho company
and tho men to got together and thus
end a struggle that has boon barren of
results.
Telephone Merger a Fact.
Tho merger of tho Bell Telephone
compnny in Nebraska with tho Lin
coln Telephone & Telegraph company,
recently authorized by permission of
tho Nebraska stnto railway coinmis
aion, was completed Tuesday.
President Frank Woods nnd Secretary
C J. Bills of tho Lincoln company
issuud checks for $2,298,000 to
Vice President G. E. McParlantl of
of tho Nebraska Bell compnny in ro
turn for which the Lincoln company be
cuinu possessed offnll of tho Bell ex
changes south of tho Platte river and
onst of tho west lino of Adams county
in Nebraska, lho Bell compnny im
mediately pnid back the money to tho
Lincoln compnny in return for stock.
The chocks iBaued were threo in
number, ono for $2,000,000, anothor for
$222,900 and a thiol for $70,100.
By this deal tho Lincoln company
buys forty-eight exchanges of the Bell
company and several toll lines, In re
turn It withdraws from tho North
Plntte country in Nebraska. To por
foat the deal tho Lincoln company
asked for and received permission
from tho state railway commission to
Issuo $350,000 of common stock nnd
$3,000,000 of 5 per cent preferred stock.
Tho broak between Governor Wilson
nnd Colonol Ilnrvey was given public
ity, it appours, by a southern editor
who has long been hostile to the New
Jorsoy scholar. It is suspoctod tjiat
ho received the information from
Colonel Wntterson, and that the story
was put out at the moment when it
' vviib calculated it would do the greatest
possible lot of harm. Tho attacks upon
Wilson nro almost devilish in thoir
cunning and their timeliness. The
democrats who think lie is as good
ns nominated do not take sulllcient ac
count of.the pqwer and resourcefulness
of tho men who have decided that he
will not do as tlmlr candidate. State

Tho Omnhn Boo of yesterday con
tained tho following article:
President Mohlor, Vice-Prosiden
Munroo, In chargo of traffic; Passenger
Trafllc Manager Port nnd General Mana
ger Scott of tho Union Pacific nro in
Salt Lake City attending a family meet
ing of officials of the Ilarrimnn lines In
the west. Information is given out
that tho meeting is for tho purpose of
rearranging divisions on the Union
Pacific and formulating n new train
schedule. Humor, howevor, says that
this is far from being tho renl purpose
of tho meeting.
Men in railroad circles say that tho
president, trafllc managers and general
managers do not travel 1,000 miles for"
tho purpose of arranging divisions that
havo already been nrranged and to work
out a train schedule that Is under ordin
ary circumstances prepared by dis
patchers and superintendents nnd then
approved by managers.
Thoso who assort they know, contend
that the renl purpose of tho head men
of the Ilarrimnn lines at this time Is to
formulnto some plan by which the ex
penses of tho system mny bo reduced
and tho revenuos correspondingly in
creased. Llko all other roads, the Union Pa
cific mado a poor financinl showing for
December. When New York bond
holders and stock jobbers saw this re
port thoy clamored for something bet
ter in tho future and some trimming is
anticipated. In fact, it is already be
ing done, and tho start Is being made
in the low, it's well as in tho high
places.
Thoro aro rumors floating about that
tho mooting of tho Ilarrimnn officials at
Salt Lako has to do with the strike
that was declared by the shopmen
soma months ago, and that It is pos
siblo that a solution of tho difficulty
may bo brought about.
While the striko is still in force it is
known that some of the men have been
going back to work during tho last few
weeks. There has been no break in
tho rnnka of tho strikers, but they nro
going back singly and in pairs and
sometimes in bunches of several.
Strikers admit that somo of tho men
hnvo returned to work in Omaha and
olsowhoro, nnd railroad officials declare
that this is true. Up to this time no
overtures havo been mndo by either
side. However, whonover nn old shop
man has applied for a position ho hns
been put nt work in the event a vacancy
could bo found. Returning to work tho
old-tlmo shopmen go as now employes
and tnko tho same standing as if thoy
had novor worked for tho company.
Thoy loso all seniority rights, nnd if
thoy havo had years of servico they
ro-ontor tho company employ on tho
sumo footing as if thoy aro strangers.
P. A. Barrows, u former Plntts
mouth nowspaper mnn who is quite
vll known among tho ropublicnn
nwpaMr men of the state, hm ad-vi-ed
in a communication to The Beo
F. L. M00NEY, Cashlor.
of a few days ago, that tho manner of
criticism of President Tnft by tho La
Follotto boomers will not tend to the
exerciso of tho "soft, soft pednl" by
tho adherents of tho President with
reference to LaFollette, nnd rather en
cournged tho indulgence of similar
criticism in retaliation. But It doesn't
pay to retaliate in this mnttOr. The
LaFollette tirades against tho Presi
dent Ijavo rebounded against tho inter
ests of tho Wisconsonian becauso they
havo gone beyond the limits of reason
ableness and tho facts. Tho result
has been a gradual turning of
sentiment townrd the President
a growing conviction that ho has
not boon dealt with fairly and that
tho features of his ndminiatintion which
havo met with an honest difference of
opinion among republicans hnvo, been
nuguraonted while tho progressive
achievements of tho administration,
such as tho prosecution of ther? trusts,
the establishment of tho postal sayings
bank system throughout the .country,
tho placing of the postoffico department
on a paying basis, tho introduction of
economy in other departments, tho es
tablishment of a taritr commission, etc.,
hnvo been entirely disregarded nnd
kept from tho nttention of the public
by tho noise of criticism, which noise
had as its main motive the advance
