THE LINCOLN SPIRIT.
Its Extension In Various Ways Has
Been Commented Upon.
That the city of Lincoln has
shown a most remarkable growth and
a development far beyond the wildest
dreams of. its earliest settlers is a
fact patent to all. That Lincoln is
just in the infancy of its development
as a manufacturing and jobbing cen
ter is evidenced by the faith dis
played by manufacturers and mer
chants securing locations here.
No business enterprise inaugurat
ed here within the past few years
starts out with a better prospect of
success than the Columbia Fixture,
Motor & Power rOo., with show rooms
and plant located at 112-144 North
Fourteenth street. The company is
fully equipped in every way having
ample capital,1 experience, skill ' and
sufficient energy and ability to
make this a leading establishment of
its kind.
This company is the successor to
the firm of Hull & Daggett, and in
addition to the departments operated
by that firm have added a drafting de
partment for designing fixtures, an
engineering department for the de
sign and management of plant instal
lations including mining equipment,
electric, steam and water power
plants and a contracting and main
tainance department which includes
electric and hydraulic elevators.
Aaron H. Sullivan, president and
geaeral manager of the company is
a Lincoln boy. He was born and
raised in this city and received the
first part of his technical training at
the University of Nebraska. He has
. studied electrical work under the pri
vate tutorship of one of the professors
at the University of Illinois, and has
visited and carefully inspected the
power plants of Niagara and others
in Switzerland. The spepial atten
tion of the company is to be devoted
to maintenance work in Lincoln and
the solving of electrical problems for
the public and an extensive electro
plating establishment is also main
tained. This company is one of the largest
and best equipped fixtures and con
struction concerns in the west and
it is with much pleasure that we re
fer 'to this new audition to the busi
ness interests of the city.
The officers of the company are
headed by Mr. Aaron H. Sullivan,
president and. general manager. The
department heads ave as follows: F.
W. Prewitt, munagtr of the fixture
department; Mi X vl. Oriype, gen
eral foreman of shops; Mr. Geo. W.
Mally, general foreman of construction.
OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKING AT
THE DOOR OF EVERY YOUNG
MAND AND WOMAN.
It is not opportunity that young
people of this day lack, but they are
failing because of neglected opportun
ities! Procrastination has caused
more young people to fall than all
other causes combined. What the
young man or woman is doing, not
what he or she intends to do in the
future, determines his destiny. One
succeeds because of intelligent deci
sions, another fails while trying to
make up his mind.
i-.very young man . and woman
knows of the large opportunities in
the business world for the person
. with business training, how many of
our young people are neglecting this
preparation. The best part of it is,
however, that so many are taking ad
vantage of this training, and are
steadily marching toward the heights
of business success. . If. you would see
them just watch the business section
of our city, and see this army march
ing to their work at about 8 o'clock
in the morning.
What came before these responsi
sible positions? Training. The busi
ness world opens its doors only to
trained workers. That is the reason
that the Nebraska School of Business
is doing everything possible to give
to the young people who enrol, at this
school, the very best possible train
ing. They have secured for their
school the very best possible location
in a new modern fire-proof building,

The teachers in this school are thor
oughly prepared to handle their de
partments, Some young men and women who
read this will decide to take advan
tage of the opportunity for training
offered by this school, and will enter
upon a career of greater efficiency
and therefore greater usefulness as
well as greater earning capacity. No
doubt some others will belong to the
class who .can not make up- their
minds just what they want to do, and
these will still be wondering what is
best for them to do, when the others
have completed their preparation and
have stepped out into the larger field
of business.
Remember, young people, there is
no success without intelligent deci
sion followed by prompt action.

PHILLIP A. SOMMERLAD.
Not many candidates on the repub
lican ticket have shown any more con
stancy and loyalty towards his party
than has Philip A. Sommerlad, re
publican candidate for county treas
urer, and this fact added much in &.v
ing him such strength and prestige in
the primary election which recently
gave him his election. Mr. Sommer
lad is a native of Nebraska and was
born in our state on August 27th,
1868, receiving his education in the
Public Schools of Lincoln. As a citi
zen and as a party man Mr. Sommer
lad has the respect and confidence of
all who know him and as a business
man he is a success. He is secretary
of the Woodruff Bank Note Com
pany, and his experience here has
been such as to ably prepare him to
fulfill the duties of the office to which
he aspires. He is a born leader of
men and a man who has endeared
himself to the men who have been
under him for o many years. He
has in every way fully demonstrated
his loyalty to the republican party
and ever shown a desire to promote
the welfare of the organization rather
than his own interests, and he has
the friendship and following pos
sessed by few aspirants to public of
fice. He amply proved his popular
ity in his candidacy for the nomina
tion two years ago. That he will
make an able and efficient treasurer
is admitted by every one with whom
he has come in contact.
