T^e Free Pass as a Branding Iron.
Omaha Bee: The remarkable state
ment given to the press over the
name of J. H. Ager, head prass dis
tributer and chief legislative lobbyist
of one of the big railroads of Nebraska,
should cause the people of this state,
and particularly the lawmakers in
session at Lincoln, to pause and
ponder over its significance. That
the free pass evil is widespread and
permeates the legislature almost
without exception has long been no
torious, so that the charges made by
a representative from Nemaha county
that the railroad lobby is using the
influence of their pass favors to pre
vent wholesome legislation contain
nothing new.
When, however, Mr. Ager puts the
shoe on and comes back with the de
claration that the representative in
question is himself a holder of an an
nual pass over his road, and has re
quested and received numerous trip
passes since the session opened, he un
dertakes to use the free pass as a
branding iron. Because the pass
accepting legislator has failed to meet
expectations by reciprocating railway
favors at the expense of his constitu
ents, the pass distributor denounces
him in public and in effect says to
other pass holding legislative mem
bers: “See how I have branded the
gentleman from Nemaha. If you do
not carry out the implied obligations
of your free rides you may expect
similar treatment.”
The question becomes not whether
a pass is to be regarded as a bribe, but
whether it is to be employed as a club.
When such practices are pursued
every public official who accepts a
railway pass must know that he puts
himself absolutely at the mercy of
unscrupulous railway hirelings and
that he must execute orders from rail
road headquarters without question
or refuse only to be branded in public
with an ineffaceable mark. Unless
the blighting menace of the free pass
is shortly recogni/.ed and averted by
stringent legislation before it grows
to more monstrous proportions, the
representative character of our gov
ernment will be completely destroyed
and our lawmaking bodies will become
mere machines to register the decrees
of the railroad lobbyists.
Trade Conditions
Dun’s Review: Trade reports are
still somewhat conflicting, but, on the
whole, improvement has followed
more settled weather, and the outlook
is considered favorable, even in sec
tions where current business is irregu
lar. Mercantiles are not as prompt
at the East as elsewhere, but the
liabilities of commercial failures in
February were much smaller than a
year ago. Tratllc blockades have been
lifted, restoring a normal distribution
of merchandise, and railway earnings
in February were only 5.1 per cent,
smaller than last year, despite the
severe weather at the start. Little
idle machinery is noted in the iron
and steel industry, textile mills are
Increasingly active, and New England
shoe shops are shipping more freely
than a year ago, although there is still
delay in booking orders for footwear.
Minor manufacturing plants are also
preparing for large sales, indicating
that confidence remains unshaken.
Agricultural communities have pros
pered, cash prices of all farm products
maintaining profitable positions, but
the speculative markets are erratic.
Foreign commerce at this port for the
last week shows a gain of $1,126,319 in
value of merchandise imported, while
exports decreased $887,535, compared
with the same week last year. Activi
ty continued in Wall Street, sixty
railway stocks rising to the highest
point of the season at an average of
$113.59 which was within $2.68 of the
high record established in 1902, but
subsequently there was more or less
reaction and irregularity. Rates for
money continued firm at the recent
advance to about 3 per cent for call
loans, but foreign exchange became
weaker. Bank exchange at New York
for the last week were 121.4 per cent,
larger than in the same week of 1904,
and at other leading cities there was
a gain of 25 per cent.
Healthy Mothers.
Mothers should always keep in good
bodily health. They owe it to their
children. Yet it is no unusual sight
to see a mother, with babe in arms,
coughing violently and exhibiting all
the symptoms of a consumptive ten
dency. And wliy should this danger
ous condition exist, dangerous alike to
mother and child, when Dr. Bochee’s
German Syrup would put a stop to it
once? No mother should be without
this old and tried remedy in the house

any lung, throat or bronchial trouble
in herself or her children. The worst
cough or cold can be speedily cured by

Proper treatment of Pneumonia.
Pneumonia is too dangerous a
disease for anyone to attempt to doc
tor himself, although he may have the
proper remedies at hand. A physi
cian should always be called. It
should be born in mind, however,
that pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attack
of the grip, and that by giving
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy the
threatened attack of pneumonia
may Ibe warded off. This remedy
is also used by physicians in the
treatment of pneumonia with the best
results. Dr. W. J. Smith, of Sanders,
Ala., who is also a druggist, says of it:
“I have been selling Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy and prescriding it in
my practice for the past six years. I
use it in cases of pneumonia and have
always gotton the best results.” Foe

DELICIOUS
STRAWBERRIES
Most everybody likes strawberries
and thy are the mosu easily grown of
any kind of fruit as well as the most
healthful and delicious and they bear
a full crop of fruit the next year after
planting. From 300 to 500 plants
make a good sized bed planted one
foot by three foot. We have the
biggest self-fortilizing kinds.
SWEET PRUNE PLUM
September 1, 1903, three bushels of
plums were picked from one five year
old tree in E. D. Hammond’s orchard
of Sweet Prune plums. The tree com
menced to bear two years after plant
ing and is bearing every year. It is
the only Prune Plum that has been a
success with me and I have tried
many kinds. It stood the dry years,
1893 and 1894, and the hard winter of
1899 and bore fruit the following sea
son. It is a grand success for North
eastern Nebraska. It is a dark purple
in color, large size, skin can be easily
removed and can be pitted like a free
stone peach. They are excellent for
canning and preserves and are so
sweet that they require very little
sugar. I sold this plhm at $2.50 to
$3.00 a bushel the past season when
other varieties of sour plums were
selling for 75* cents to a $1.00 a bushel.
It has taken first premium at the
Lincoln State fair, and limbs ana
brances loaded with plums, shipped to
the Pan-American exposition at
Buffalo, New York, were shown in the
Nebraska fruit exhibt that took one
of the gold medals. I also received an
honorable mention dipioma on this
plum from the Pan-American exposi
tion. We believe this plum has more
good vualities, and is the best plum in
existance for this whole northwestern
country. If you plant some of these
trees you will be well paid.
We have a choice tine lot of five to
six foot trees to seel for the Spring of
1905. These treets were grown from
grafts cut off these bearing treets that
bore these plums, and they will bear
fruit at two or three years old if
planted and are sute to be genuine. If
you want some of these trees send
your order early and get the best
plum in existence. Trees five to six
feet $1.25 each; $12.00 per dozon.
Six trees for $6.00. The only way
you can be sure of gettitg this plum
true to name grafted from my bearing
trees is to send your order direct to
me. Trees delivered free to any rail
road town. Call at Norfolk Nursery,
