There is m f eetioa bat the people
to the seriousness of the
traasportstlnn problem in this lad
of boasted freedom. Each little item
adds to the general information and
helps retain the subject with intelli
gent voters, deepening Jhe convic
tion that there must be a radical
change in affairs) and that very soon.
If the railroad companies themselves
will give more carefulif not prayer
ful attention to the subject of their
relations to the people out of whom
they make their money, and consult
the mutual interests of both, all will
be bettered and general interests
furthered. One of the main troubles
in the adjustment of differences be
tween employers -and employees in
some large establishments and with
most railroad corporations- is that
affairs are managed, not by the pro
prietors immediately coming into
contact with the laborers, but by
superintendents and "bosses," whose
only interest is to hold their place
and make a good showing in dollars
and cents to their superiors. This,
in a large degree, begets the penny-
wise, pound-foolish method which
has been greatly in vogue, and which
is alike detrimental to the interests
of railroads and people. If the Union
Pacific B. B. Co. had, at the beginning
of their run in Nebraska, assured the
incoming thousands that lumber and
coal would be furnished them for all
time at as low a rate as the haul
could be made, Nebraska would by
this time have been much more
densely populated than it now is, and
the local traffic of the railroads in
creased accordingly; but if, when
apples, for instance, are selling at 25
cents a bushel in Missouri and $1.25
in Columbus, and this difference is
mainly because of excessive freight
and express charges, it is an indica
tion that something is wrong; a
statement made by Frank Faulkner
in the last Schuyler Sun, is another
indication in the same line, showing
that something is necessary in order
that people may continue to gain a
livelihood and not give all their sur
plus cash to railroad companies :
"It costs as much freight from
Omaha to Schuyler as a whole car of
lumber costs in Wisconsin, lacking
$33.99 ; or in other words if the U. P.
B. B. had charged $33.99 more freight
than they did on a car of lumber this
week from Omaha, tho freight would
have been as much as tho whole car
load cost at the mills in Wisconsin."
If party politics can do anything,
let the machinery be set going. Life

The Temseraace Ware.
On the same day that the Journal
set forth the importance of enforc
ing the law, the Hastings Gazette
Journal contained the subjoined ar
ticle on the same subject. The re
markable unanimity of sentiment
shows "a state of affairs" that would-
be managers of party politics should
take note of. Under our state law
the peopel's will, whatever it may be
touching the liquor question, can be
carried out Those license men who
do not want to encounter the whirl
wind of prohibition, had best not
sow the wind of disobedienco or in
difference to law ; the liquor dealars
who are over-anxiouB to elect officers
who will wink at violations of the
statute, will find that it is best for
all interests that they conform to the
law in every particular. But hero is
what we started out to quote :
The radical opponent of the theory
of prohibition will be naturally be
very much surprised at tho result of
the municipal elections over the state
In nearly every town and village
the issue was license and no license
saloon or no 6aioon: 1'roDaDly a
hundred towns or more voted in fa
vor of no license, while in many
other towns the majority of the li
cence party were so small that a few
votes would have changed the result
It would not be dfficult to discov
er the reason for this astonishing in
crease in the temperance vote over
the state. The friends of high license
owe their defeat in many cases to the
laxity that has existed in reference to
the strict enforcement of the laws
against the saloons. In many towns
in Neb. the saloons have controll
ed the mayor, council, police judge
and the police themselves. As a re
sult the laws have not been enforced,
and public sentiment which is pretty
generally to be found on the side of
law and order, finally demanded the
abolishment of the saloon.
The friends of high license may
well take warning from the result of
election in many towns of the
state. They must see to to it that the
laws are vigorously and strictly en
forced. The chief merit in tho high
license law lies in the restrictions
which it throws around the liquor
traffic Remove those rections and
a high license law amounts to no
more than a mere compromise with
the liquor interests. Every citizen
should insist upon a strict, unequivo
cal enforcement of every provision
of the Slocumb law and society will
be the better for it
Tate Heal Disease.
Calhoun, the "Topics" man of the
Lincoln Journal, is pretty solid when
he takes to a subject on his own c
count, and tho following paragraph
is, we think, among the best of his
notions :
"Arbitration may, and doubtless
will, serve excellently as a tub thrown
to the troublesome whale known as
the relations between capital and
labor. But the real disease will con
tinue to exist beneath the salve that
covers it Co-operation nd part
nership between capital and labor is
the only real and permanent cure.
Such a system now difficult to be
even conceived, but easy to be
reached through practical experiment
and experience would do away with
many other evils besides strikes. It
would settle the laborer in- one
habitat, to the advantage of himself
and family and society. It would
avert many business failures. It
would relieve to some extent the
pressure of poverty on the poor. It

It is a pleasure among newspaper
men and others to learn that though
the London Times draws the line on
snake stories, it is great on egg
stories. The following from a Times
correspondent is its latest. "I think
some of your scientific readers may
be interested to know of an extra
ordinary egg laid by one of my
pullets. It was of an enormous size,
measuring nine and one-half inches
round its length, and weighing six
ounces. It was cooked, and on open
ing was found to contain a yolk and.
white, as well as another egg of or
dinary size with yolk, white and
shell all perfect". Platte county did
as well as that years ago in the per
son, so to speak, of a hen owned by
John. Wise, a record of which ap
peared in the Journal at the time,
and the eggs exhibited till they (it)
became no longer a curiosity.
. Speaking of the currency question
the National Bepnblidcn, Washing
ton, D. C says :
"Time was, in the hour of peril,
when the nation made drafts on the
people for blood and for money. It
gave bounty to both. A new policy
is demanded. The people's must
take the place of tho bankers' money.
This can be accomplished by deposit
ing the product of labor in the mines
in government vaults and issuing
coin certificates as its representative.
Let the national banks be no longer
banks' of issue when their bonds
are paid in coin. There will be but
one kind of money the 'people's
money. The antagonisms and the
bounty to bankers will cease. Until
this is done it is not possible that the
people will permit their representa
tives either to stop the coinage or in
crease in weight of the silver dollar."
Select parties in Omaha laBt week,
were realizing a good deal of sport in
operating the "Spiritual Talking
Board." One citizen thought his
family was spending too much time
over the "Talking Board," and being
about to leave homo on a journey,
secretly took the talking machine and
burned it up. The family could not
find it in his absence, but some one
made another, and the amusement
went on as usual. To the question,
what had become of the other board,
the answer was given, "Jack burned
it up," which somewhat astonished
Jack on his return. It will disclose
the whereabouts of absent members
of families, who are in the habit of
spending their evenings from home.

Ed. Journal, Dear .Sir: In your
issue of March 31st, was an extract
from the "Milling World" referring
to the evangelists Jones and Small
and introduced by remarks which I
suppose to be your own.
. I have no desire to join issue with
you, nor to vindicate either the men
or their methods. They should be
judged on their own merits, and if
given a fair tribunal I have no con
cern for results.
But the cause they represent and
by their labors are striving to pro
mote, is dear to me, and of interest to
others, because it Is Christ's work in
the world, and hence concerns the
best good of all men.
Now, since the sins of the creature
are so often charged against the
Creator, and the follies of the servant
attributed to the Master and his
cause, it is supremely important to
the interests of our common humanity
that no representative of Christianity
be misrepresented.
Therefore I ask as a matter of com
mon justice, and in the interests of
the general good, that yon publish
the extract from the Chicago Advance
herewith presented and referring to
the subject-matter of the clip from
the "Milling World." In addition I
would suggest that the "looks" of the
"outside man" are often so far out'
side the facts that a proper regard
for the good of our fellow men
should, in my opinion, constrain to
great prudence in giving them cur
rency. Yonratruly,
. - O. V. Bice.
At the close. o.,the Sunday even
ing sermon Mr. Jones said :
I feel like there is just one more
thing I want to say before I dismiss
this audience to-night and commence
the after service. Just one more
thing I would say. I believe,
brethren, that thirteen years ago I
(.nnannrfttAd mvaelf to God. I have
been a consecrated man from that day
until this. I have been consecrated
for the glory of God and the good of
humanity in the work that I have
been trying to do. Down in my
country I have never been in a soul's
way that I knew of. In a hundred
different instances here I have been
notified that "a habit yon are given
to ia a stnmblinsrblock to souls in
this city." Now, I want to say to
this congregation to-night that from
this day until we meet God in heaven,
yon can tell this world Sam Jones has
got no habit that is a stumbling-block
to anybody.
This announcement of Mr. Jones
was received by the vast audience
with ffeneral and renewed aonlause.
rendering it impossible for the
speaker to proceed for some
moments.
I havequit chewing tobacco. And
to yon, brethren, I will say this,
wherever aad whenever there is a
fanlt of mine that will lead any sonl
astray, or that is a stumbling-block
to- any one, God being my helper, if
I know it, that thing shall go down
forever with me. And if there is a
spot or aa iach about ma that is not
caaseerated to God aad humanity
U-aight, I say this minute, Lord God

Duty to mankind and obligation to
the manufacturers of the remedy de
mand that I acknowledge the won
derful results of using Swift's
Specific.
Three years ago I was afflicted with
that most horrible of diseases, blood
poison. In vain I sought help from
the medical profession, changing doc
tors two or three times. The mer
curial remedies used soon put me on
crutches and brought on untold pain.
I conld see myself failing every day.
My weight was reduced from 150 to
117 pounds in six weeks. I could see
no nse of living situated as I was, and
was so desperate at times that I felt
like taking my own life. Friends
interfered, and urged me to go to
Hot Springs. I started, but on my
way met a friend who persuaded me
to stop with him, and to try Swift's
Specific. I had no faith in patent
medicines, and at first would not
listen to such advice.' But my suf
ferings were so intense I finally
yielded. After the first bottle I felt
a great change, and by tho time I had
used one dozen bottles I was like
myself once more. I still felt some
pains in my limbs, and so continued
the nse of the medicine, and to-day
one would never think that I had
been such a wreck and cured by that
wonderful remedy. It stands at the
head of all blood remedies, and is a
blessing to all mankind.
