IT is about time for Colonel Edgar
Howard of Columbus to arise and sug
gest that Ex Secretary of State Porter
put it back
Too many officials have had to rue the
day that they utilized the spinal verte
brae of their friends rnther than their
own backbones
IT IS easier just now to stand up for
Nebraska than it was a few weeks ago
hence we find a more optimistic seuti
inent existing but its the optimist in
pessimistic weather we all most admire
and that Southwestern Nebraska needs
The newspapers of Nebraska have ut
tered a superb sjtnposium of the high
character and fine ability of Judge Sedg
wick the Republican nominee for su
preme judge He deserves it too Now
it is up to the people of Nebraska to do
the right thing royally elect him by a
decisive majority-
Fifty brave and chivalrous Spanish
naval officers assaulted a newspaper
office in Spain the other day They
made three separate assaults with clubs
before they succeeded in vanquishing
the manager of the paper and his two
editors Spain ought to take some
editorial blood into her navy It might
save her the humiliation of another
Manila bay or Santiago defeat
HENCEFORTH the impassioned denun
ciations of the fusion orator will omit
fourv big trusts instead of three the
silvefyrust the cotton and the ice trust
So manyjgreat fusion leaders have struck
oil in Texas that no further arraign
ment will be made in the party plat
forms of the oil octopus The list of the
oppressors of the common people is
thereby quite perceptibly shortened
The world moves Lincoln Journal
The demand of the steel trust that
labor organizations dealing with it shall
incorporate and thus become capable of
making an enforceable contract is not a
new idea It has been suggested in
previous discussions of strike remedies
Whatever ground of objection there may
be to the enactment of a law compelling
incorporation of unions engaged in
purely private occupations there is
reason in public policy why organizations
of labor employed by corporations en
gaged in public service should be made
to put themselves in shape to be amen
able to process This on the ground
that they have engaged with their em
ployers to serve the public and no dif
ferences between them should be per
mitted to interfere with the discharge of
their obligations to their virtual con
tracts with the public St Paul Dis
patch
We are going fo have school just

To Be Finished in Thirty Days
Hi B Segur general agent of the
Burlington at this place states that it
is very likely that the work of track
laying on the Cody branch will be com
pleted in thirty days from the present
time and that trains will be operating
into Cody a very short time thereafter
or as soon as the line can be surfaced
after the tracklaying is completed
Tracklaying is proceeding at the rate of
a mile a day and the surfacing gang is
close behind the tracklayers The
track is now laid to Garland a station
about thirty miles north of Cody

Great Westerns Plans
President Stickney of the Great West
ern has succeeded in his scheme to float
5000000 worth of bonds for the Omaha
and Sioux City extensions
Work on the extensions is to be com
menced next spring but some prelimi
nary grading may be done this year
The surveys have all been completed
It was Mr Stickneys intention a year
ago to build an extension to Omaha but
the Illinois Central got ahead of him
and as at the time efforts were being
made by the Morgan Harriman people
to secure control of the Chicago Great
Western further action on the proposed
extensions was deferred These nego
tiations failed to culminate successfully
it being said that the price asked by
Mr Stickney was considered exorbitant
by the New York capitalists Since
then Mr Stickney it is said has
changed his mind and is now of the
opinion that the property if properly
rounded out and extended is destined
to become one of the most valuable in
the west In a recent interview Presi
dent Stickney said the Great Western
was planning to change the railroad
map of southern Minnesota and western
Iowa Since its construction the owners
of the Great Western have been content
with its three main lines between Chi
cago and the twin cities and Kansas City
and St Paul with two or three feeders
Recently the company bought the
Winona and St Peter railway a line
connecting the Great Western at Mc
Iutyre and Winona It is now reported
that Mr Stickney has bought the Green
Bay and Western railroad a line cross
ing Wisconsin from Green Bay to
Winona J J Hill is believed to be the
principal backer of the Chicago Great
Westerns new enterprises and the
opinion is gaining ground that an un
derstanding exists between President
Hill and President Stickney for an ulti
mate alliance between the Great North
ern and Great Western and that the
latter will ultimately be operated as a
port of the J J Hill railway system

Life of a Locomotive
An English engine built in 1S70 has
run 4000000 miles and is still in service
The managers of the road to which it
belongs are proud of this record In
the United States a first class passenger
engine makes from 100000 to 110000
miles a year and at the end of twenty
years is supposed to be ready for the
scrap heap Seemingly Americans are
more extravagant than British railway
managers but the former do not think
they are They believe their policy is
the more economical one
As soon as a locomotive is put in ser
vice in this country it is pushed as hard
as is possible in doing profitable work on
the assumption that by the time it has
been driven to death there will be so
many improvements in locomotives that
it will be uneconomical to keep the old
one in service even if it can be rebuilt
Thus when slaves were cheap a Cuban
planter would reason that it was more
economic to work a slave to death and
buy a new one than to exact less labor
from a slave and thus have his services
for a long time
In England an engine is taken great
care of It is rested occasionally Its
life is prolonged as much as possible
Hence it is that an engine can be kept
in service for thirty years The men at
the head of American railways contend
that so old an engine must be an expen
sive one because it cannot do the cheap
er work a modern engine in capable of
The American policy is vindicated by its
results Chicago Tribune
