Ware, general manager of the Union Pacific, came up from Omaha Wednesday morning and in tho nftor noon discussed tho passenger servico on tho North Uiver branch with thirty or more business" men nt a meeting held at tho Elks' home. J . 0. Wilcox and othors told of tho loss of trade that resulted to North Platto merchants bv reason of thn lnrt of better service, nnd expressed beliof that increased servico wonld result in increased passenger sorvice, and nt tho shine time prove nn incentive to the poonle of the valley to come hore to trade. Mr. Ware brought with him statistics showing the earnings of the North River branche, as well of other branches in tho state. These figures ouuni'u uint iiiu viuiiii iviver line was not a paying proposition and confessed that the traffic on the line had boon a disappointment to tho officials of tho road. Replying to tho suggestion that a motor service be placed on tho branch; the car arriving from Goring at noon and leaving after tho arrival of No. 11 at 2:15 in the afternoon: Mr. Waro said that such & servico would cost tho com pany $160 per day, yet if sufficient bus iness could be secured by the increased service, tho company would bo glad to put on the car. It was suggested that tho car ba put on for a ninety-day trial, and while Mr. Waro gave no direct promise that this would be done, ho said he would carefully investigate the matter. Should he arrive at a favor ablo conclusion, it is not likely the car would be given n trial until late in tho summer or early fall. Train service west of here was also taken up with Mr. Waro, especially as to Sutherland being made a flag stop for train No. 11. Mr. Waro stated that No. 11 is a fast train nnd that on ac count of tho Burlington's competition on tho Denvor business it was absolute ly necessary that tha fast time be maintained and that the fewest possiblo stops be made. He promised, howover, to see what ho could do, and bofore leaving town that night notifiod Presi dent Sceberger of tho Chamber of Com merce that tho request would be granted. This Dashes Our Hopes. Tho Lincoln Journal in discussing building operations by tho Burlington throws a wot sponge on our expecta tions which wer6 brightened last week by the article appearing in the World Herald and republished in these columns. Part of the Journal's article follows: Money for new railroad building is not easily secured. Thorcforo additions to mileage in this part of the west will come slowly. That is n statoment Bur lington men mako when asked about the construction of the proposed Platte valley lino. That lino will not bo built this summer. It probably will not bo built next. Riimmnr.
