I was soon in a deep sleep. Alex is
sometimes a victim of nightmares.
At this particular time he imagin-
ed that someone was after him.
He jumped from bed and through
the window , fell to the ground be-
low , picked himself up and ran
several yards into a fence before
he finally awakened. He was a
sorry , sight when discovered. His
limbs were cut by the glass and
torn by the wire. Dr. Tische was
called to dress his wounds. At
present he feels stiff and sore and '
wonders why he wasn't , killed j'

J. A. Ollis , state senator from Val
ley county , and a well known stock
man , has given out a significant state
ment in reference to the conspiracy of
the railroads , led by the Burlington ,
to advance the freight rate on dressed
meat from the Missouri river , and
thus rob the stockman of his profits.
.
"This is a more serious thing for
t.he stockmen of this state than most
of them imagine at first : thought , " says
Senator Ollis.
"Th advance of 30 per cent in the
rates on dressed meat from the Mis- '
souri river to Chicago means a great
many cattle and hogs will be taken
through the South Omaha market and
kilh'd in Chicago. The same men-
with one exception - are killing there
who are slaughtering in South Omaha.
If they can ship live stock as cheaply
as dressed'meat , or cheaper , they will
kill in Chicago.
"There I is every reason why the
stockmen should be interested In
building up the market in South Oma
ha.ye can get the South Omaha
quotations one mornjing ) and be there
with the stock the next morning , and
do not run much risk of a break in the
market. But if we ship to Chicago
we cannot get there for three days ,
and there is danger of getting there
on a break of 30 to 40 cents , which
happens many times. This wipes out
the entire profit of feeding What
the stockmen must have Is good ,
strong markets on the Missouri river.
These markets can only : he buUt up
by giving them business and the only
way they can get business is to have
rates which will enable them to com
pdte with Chicago. *
"This " is a matter In which every
stockman west of the MlssOtt'ri' river
has a vital interest and should , help
the South Omaha market in getting
