The Labor Trust "gathers in" local

The Labor Trust does likewise.
The Oil Company may "use meth

The labor Trust men go further

Low Rates to State Fair.
The Union Pacific has aunounnced a
rate of 1 cent a mile for state
fair travel. This is the third year un
der the 2 cents a mile law that the
Union Pacific has cut the rate in half.
In past years it has not been followed
by other roads. The regular conven
tion rate of one and one-half fares
has been applied by other Nebraska
roads. They have argued that when
the regular rate was 3 cents a mile
they made a half rate, making the
rate the same as tnat made now. The
state fair and the Lincoln Commer
cial club, in making the request for
the reduced rate in 190S. asked for a
fare and a half. After a long struggle,
during which the rate was made and
recalled, two or three roads granted
the rate asked. The Union Pacific
held out. Finally that road announced
the half fare rate.
The Burlington and the Northwest
ern roads have filed notice of state
fair rates, naming a fare and one-halt'
for the round trip this year. The Bur
lington has announced its schedule of
special state fair trains and it is un
derstood the other roads will run spe
cial trains, giving the best service
from the widest territory on the days
when aviation events promise to he
the most interesting. It is announced
that the Burlington will give shuttle
train service again this year between
the depot and the fair grounds.
Lots of Automobiles.
During the year Trom August 1. 1909.
to August 1. 1910. 5.700 automobiles
were registered in the office of the sec
retary of state.. A great number of
these automobiles have been bought
by Nebraska farmers. An automobile
is not only useful as a methed of re
laxation and recreation aTfer a nerve
racking day in the office, hut is fast
assuming the position of a necessity
in the every day life of the people o?
a great agricultural commonwealth
In recognition of this fact the man
agers of the state fair have set apart
the old live stock pavilion cs an au
tomobile building and the demand for
space therein has been so great that
a big 'show is assured. As a feature
of fair entertainments an automobile
parade will be held in the afternoon of
Friday. September 9. when, for the
best decorated automobile, will be
given cash prizes, $20 to first. $25 to
second, $20 to third. $15 to fourth and
$10 to fifth.
County Agricultural Exhibits.
Twenty-two counties have entered
agricultural exhibits at the state
fair. This insures the continuation
of the fact that Nebraska will aga'n
have the finest rgricultural exhibit
shown at any fair in the United
States for 1910. Others that claim to
be leading agricultural states often
wonder how Nebraska maintains the
first position in agricultural product
display. The state is divided into
three districts. The eastern being
bounded on the west by the west line
of the following counties: Knox,
Piehce. Madison, Colfax. Butler. Sew
ard. Saline and Jefferson. The cen
tral section !nc all counties west

western division being all counties

Secretary Mellor of the state fair
hoard has received four magnificent
silver cups which are offered by tho
Union Stock Yards company of South
Omaha as special prizes at the live
stock show at the state fair. Each
cup is worth $100. One is for the best
beef bull of the show, all breeds and
J ages, another for the best beef cow of
the show, all breeds and ages, tho
third cup is for the best fat steer of
the show, grade and pure breeds, all

Fixed on What Might Be Called
Higher Things.
Mayor William S. Jordan, at a Dem
ocratic banquet in Jacksonville, said
of optimism:
"Let us cultivate optimism and hope
fulness. There Is nothing like it. The
optimistic man can see a bright side
to everything everything.
"A missionary in a slum once laid
his hand on a man's shoulder and
said:
"'Friend, do you hear the solemn
ticking of that clock? Tick-tack; tick

what day it inexorably and relentlessly

Where Millions Are Entombed.
The catacombs at Home were the
burial places of the early Christians.
They arc about 530 miles in extent and
are said to have contained 6.000.000 '
bodies. During the persecutions of the
Christians under Nero and other Ko- ,
man emperors the catacombs were
used for hiding places. Under Diocle
tian the catacop'bs were crowded with I
those for whom there was no safety J
in the face of the day. The art of the ;
catacombs is unique and most inter- (
esting. Simple designs are etched in
the slabs which seal the tombs. Now
and then are small chapels whose
paintings are to be found. All are ,
Bible illustrations, so that the cata
combs may be said to be a pictorial
Bible in effect. The Christian Herald.

Rockefeller's Hard Shot.
John D. Rockefeller tried a game of
golf on the links near Augusta. On a
rather difficult shot Mr. Rockefeller
struck too low with his iron, and as
the dust flew up he asked his caddy:
"What have I hit?"
The boy laughed and answered:
"Jaw-Jah. boss."
