TO MAKE THE OLD ' LIKE THE MAIN LINE The Missouri Pacific through Louis ville is soon to become the principal or main line between Omaha and Kansas City. This is said to be the decision of the officials of the road after having made a careful Investi catlon of all the conditions existing. Tho main line now runs along the eastern border of the county through Union and Plattsmouth. It has no right-of-way from Omaha to the place about one mile south of Avery, where the trains are switched from the Union Pacific track and it Is claimed that tho rate charged by the Union Pacific company for the use of the track for this distance is the immedi ate cause for changing tho main Hue. The road running through Louisville was used for the main line up, to a few years ago but owing to Its poor condition, the shorter route wn3 selected.
