banks Increased more than $38,000,000,
and the number of depositors Increas
ed 70,000. Democracy gave Nebraska

A 100 million dollar wage increase for
men in freight and yard service (less than
one-fifth of all employes) is equal to a 5 per
cent advance in all freight rates.
The managers of the railroads, as trustees
for the public, have no right to place this
burden on the cost of transportation to you
without a clear mandate from a public tri
bunal speaking for you.
The railroads have proposed the settle
ment of this controversy either under the
existing national arbitration law, or by refer
ence to the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion. This offer has been refused by the
employes' representatives.
Shall a nation-wide strike or an
investigation under the Gov
ernment determine this issue?
National Conference Committee of the Railways
ELISHA LEE, Chairman.
Dr. Henry Cook, City Heultli Phy
sician, has issued a warning to the
people of Ked .Cloud and vaclnlty,
stating that all parents are requested
not to allow children under the- ago of
llvu to visit picture shows, parties and
other public places of amusement
until further notice. This Is being
done to defend the people of Red
Cloud and vaeiuity against the plague,
Infantile Paralysis, which is sweeping
over the whole I'nitcd States. Ho also
states that he and the local physicians
arc cooperating and doing all in their
power to prevent tho infection c
children in this locality. As yet, no
ease of this disease has been reported
here, but Dr. Cook ielievs that "an
ounce of prevention Ih worth more
than a pound of cure" He further
states that the germ of this disease
generally entois the system through
the mucus membrane of the nose and
mouth, and that one of the best ways
to ward it oil' is to drench the nose and
throat with a solution of one table
spoonful of salt to oncuuit of warm
water. This i a simple and inexpert
s'tve and can lie applied by anybody.
