The members of this department wish to express their appreciation for tho entertainment provided by the North Platto firo boys July 4. Wo wero givm lino treatment in the contests and the North Platto Department exerted thomsclvcs 'to seo that wo had a royal good time and wo cortainly hqd it. Gothenburg Fire Department. A Catchy Political Enemy. Lincoln News: If you are interested in political speculation, here is an in teresting problem: If Roosevelt goes through with his third party scheme and becomes its candidato, will bo hurt Wilson or Tnf t most? Thero aro sev oral arguments to bo presented on either side. If ho and Wilson run as tho Himon pure progressive candidates with Taft as the conservative candidate, will they not divide tho progressive yoto nnd mnke Tuft's election certain. Or will tho progressives wait until it is seen whether Rorsevelt or Wilson develops tho most strength and then vote largoly for that man, who wll un doubtedly bo Wilson? Or will Wilson hold ing tho progressive democrats, bo ono easy winner because Roosevelt's candi dacy will deprive Taft of tho united ro publicnn support? Or will Wilson, while running ns a progressive, drive tho conservatives of his party to Taft, thus overcoming tho dofection from the republican pnrty duo to either Wilson or Roosevelt's appenls to the progres sive republican? Or aro thero so fow conservatives left in the country that if they do unite on Taft it will bo either Wilson or Roosevelt, which, by way, looks to bo a rather absurd proposition. One Way Oot. Tho third party convention call ad dressed to all who aro unwilling to ro innm with the existing political parties, leaves it to tho several statos to solect their delegates in their own wny. This opens tho door, so it seems to us, for relieving tho peculiar situation confronting us hero in Nebraska. Our election laws mako it easy for a now party to organize and secure a place on tho official ballot by holding a mass convention and filing nomination certificates bearing tho names of 500 voters claiming membership in the party. Lot those who wish to enlist with tho third-term candidate hold a convention of their own inNobraska and constitute themselves a pnrt of the national pro gressive party. Let them choose their delegntos to tho Chicago August national convention und give thorn commissions "fresh from tho people" Let them at the same time nominato a But of presidential electors to go on tho ballot ns "nutionul progressives" and leave to tho republican electoral ticket its proper function of standing for the republican presidential nominees. Lot them do ns thoy please about making nominations or endorsements for Btato and local offices, This procedure would Bavo tho rights of all concerned nnd avoid a lot of un necessary contention. It would bo the honorable thing for tho third pnrtyites to do. Bee. Diminishing Railroad Returns. Monthly summaries of tho revenues and expenses of the Bteam railroads of the United Stntes have been compiled by tho Bureau of Railway Economics from tho reports filed month by month by tho railways with tho Interstate Commerce Commission, for the twenty two months from July, 1910, to April, 1912, the latest month for which re turns are available Net operating rev enue per mile of lino for vtho railways as a whole in comparison with the cor responding months of the previous year decreased in eighteen of theso months, nnd increased in but four. The decrease per mile of lino per month was as great in amount as $53, and as great in ratio as 15 per cent. The greatest increase for any one of tho four months show ing incronses was $31, or 14.1 per cent. This was in February, 1912, and was exceptional as this month contained one more day than February, 1911. The highest average net operating revenue per mile of line for any one month of this period was $109, tho lowest $203. Seven of the ten months from July, 1911, to April, 1912, show decreases in net operating revenue per mile of line as compared with the corresponding months of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911; and eleven of the months of tho fiscal year which ended June 30, 1911, showed decreases in comparison with the respective corresponding months of the fiscaj year ending June 30, 1910. It is therefore evident that the trend of railway net revenue has boon downward for the past two years. GOOD NEWS. Many Tribune Readers Have Heard It and Profited Thereby.
