RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT
The following resolutions were passed
iimwtTi wiiiwm miwuaat
ANntoKIp CltlJPYl ic COUP lv lfc McCook Commercial club at a
FKOM LINCOLN JOUKNAL TUESDAY
Alexander Campbell for many years
superintendent of the western or Mc
Cook division of the Burlington passed
away yesterday morning at McCook
He died at 2 a m Mr Campbell was
a veteran in tho service and few men
will bo so sincerely mourned as he He
was not far from seventy years of age
He began service with the Burlington
in 1871
Two years ago or more a reporter
hoard that Superintendent Campbell
was going to resign or that he had re
signed Ho took this story for verifica
tion to T E Calvert then general su
perintendent of the Burlington lines
west of the river and now chief engineer
of the road
I hadnt heard of it said Mr Cal
vert I dont believe it We cannot
spare Mr Campbell He is ono of the
best track men on the system and a good
superintendent Mr Campbell is ill
he is in bad health physically but he
has not mentioned resigning We are
hoping that he will soon get well and
return to his work Mr Campbell is a
railroad man whose place would be hard
to fill
Mr Campbell was retained for a time
as superintendent but later V O Eng
lish was sent to McCook as acting sup
erintendent A little later Mr Eoglish
was mado superintendent and then em
ployes of the Burlington knew that Al
exander Campbell would not recover
Alexander Campbell cared for the
place no longer He was ill and his days
on earth were short
Mr Campbell came to the Burlington
more than a quarter of a century ago
as a common laborer From such a po
sition he rose to a foremanship in the
track department then to assistant
roadmaster then to roadmaster and
from roadmaster to superintendent Of
him it has been said by high authority
that the Burlington never had a better
track man
Speaking of dead superintendent an
employe of the McCook division for
many years said yesterday Ho had
much to do with the building of the
lines of the Burlington on which he op
erated After they were built he kept
them in best condition and I have no
doubt that the worlds record for fast
running has been equalled time and
again on the west end of the Burlington
It is dropping down from the mountain
altitudes to the western Nebraska plains
that Burlington enginemen make their
best speed and it is common for them
to come down the heavier grades with
the fastest engines on the road working
to their capacity It is the track and
the grade that Alexander Campbell built
between them and death in the ditch
Not only did he excel in track work
but he was a good disciplinarian His
men liked him and obeyed his orders
and there were fewer wrecks on the west
end than on any other part of the sys
tem He was a great railroad man who

WriEKEAri By iho death of Alexander
Campbell on August 2Sth 1905 we the
members of tho McCook Commercial
club have lot ouo of our best and most
honored associates
Be Ir Therefore Rksolvkd That to
his wife and other surviving members
of his family this club extends its sin
cerest sympathy in their bereavement
and
Be It Further Resolved That the
headquarters of the McCook Commer

of grief for tho loss of one whom we
have all honored and respected

ALASKAS VASTNESS
Ocr IJisr Territory Equal In Size to
Twelve Great StuteM
Do you know that Nome Alaska is
300 miles west of Honolulu V Do you
know that Alaska has almost two and
a half times as much coast line as the
rest of the United States
If you start at Seattle and go up the
coatrt through 400 miles of Canadian
Inland waters to the rortland canal
you -will come to that imaginary line
that the Alaskan boundary commission
decreed as the place where Alaska be
gins This inland sea Is very like the
fiords of the coast of Norway and des
tined in time to become one of the
worlds great pleasure resorts and
when you know this region you will
deplore the lack of diplomacy which
lost us this picturesque coast line and
left the Alaska of today detached terri
tory In very truth the cry of 1845 of
54 40 or fight was right
At the Tortland canal Alaska begins
and as you sail up the thousand miles
of this wonderful inland sea of scenic
beauty and grandeur surpassing any
thing in the Avorld you are in south
eastern Alaska which includes the is
lands along the coast and the mainland
from the shore line to the summit of
the coast range as far north as Mount
St Elias From the summit of this
high peak the boundary line between
Alaska and British Yukon territory
runs directly north to the frozen
ocean as the old Russian treaty called
it
The territory of Alaska is about
equal to the combined states of Michi
gan Indiana Illinois Wisconsin Min
nesota North Dakota South Dakota
Iowa Nebraska Kansas Missouri and
Kentucky Maps are deceptive for
comparison unless they are drawn to
the same scale and unfortunately
maps of Alaska are generally drawn to
a small scale But put Alaska on the
United States and it will extend from
Savannah Ga to Los Angeles Cal
The climatic conditions differ as great
ly as those of North Dakota differ from
those of Florida The mean annual
temperature of Sitka is about the same
as that of Washington though the ex
tremes of heat and cold are greater at

Unlike Americans Englishmen pre
fer to have their surf bath before
breakfast They slip out of their
rooms and into the surf as a sort of
duty and prefer a buff bath or one
without the incumbrance of a bathing
suit if they can be permitted to enjoy
It With them the bath even In the
breakers is more of a duty than a pas

Americans Neither do the people of
continental Europe enjoy the pleasures
of the surf with the same avidity as
marks the summer day along the

THE
SAVING
HABIT
Should be encouraged in all possible
ways Like good morals and manne
the instruction should begin in the home-
As early habits mold the future character
so do those who early acquire the saving
habit lay the foundation for future-success
Many a boy has saved enough from his small earnings
to give him a liberal education or to make a start in bosisess
of his own Persistent saving opens the way to counbss
possibilities in success and many a young man owes his stess
in life to his having opened a savings accouut and adhered tcr
a strong determination to add to regularly and systematically
the first deposit made We invite your savings accounts
