The opening up of a now railway line is alwayn nn event of unusual in terest , ovoti if it bo a stub road con necting some interior town with the main line of a great system , When , however , the inauguration of a great trunk line is to bo signalized it must bo done with the pomp and ceremony befitting the christening of A IIOYAIi INFANT. It was an occasion of the latter class which the press , Iho city officials , and the representative business mon of the two cities on opposite banks of the great Missouri , which catch ono the first says the other the dying glow of the orb of day , wcro called upon on Saturday to celebrate , in company with the local and visiting railway magnates. In short it was the open ing of the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul railway company's now Omaha line for through pansongor traffic , as on and alter to-day two express trains will run daily between Chicago and Council Bluffs ever the now road. Great efforts are being made by the officers of the Milwaukee & St , Paul to make their Omaha route as popular as any now running between Chicago and that point. To accomplish this at once they have waited the opening of the road for through traffic until the tracks had boon placed in the boat possible condition and they had provided - vided the line with the most improved equipment. The trains to bo run ever the now route are to bo in the true sense of the word "royal trains , " 'mndo up of the finest and most olcgant passenger coaches Pullman palace aloeping-cars and palace dining-cars that have ever boon placed on a west ern road. To show the style of its now equipment for the now line , and particularly the magnificent now dining-cars , the Milwaukee & St. Paul gave an oxcuraion to the little city of Earllng. 47 miles out on the road to the Badger otato capital. COMING EVENTS cast their shadows before , and the run out was made from an Omaha depot , where the invited guests were notified that the train would bo in waiting for them at 1:30 : p. m. The train crossed the bridge at 10:30 : a. m. , and was temporarily anchored on a track in the Union Pacific depot where it might bo admired by the passengers on thn overland train and others ar riving at this time of day. The mag nificent specimen of the equipment of the now road , as it lay there bright and fresh in all the glory of now paint md nioklo , was voted a triumph of ; ho machinists' handiwork , and of decorative art. It consisted of : 0. , M. & St. P. engine No. 433 , Engineer Dave Roberts ; baggage car No. 104 , day coach No. 240 ; a dining car "B ; " a Pnllman'drawing room car , "Nu- nidia , " nnd the parlor car "America. " The train was in charge of Conductor 3. G. Lund , of Marion , Iowa ; the dining car of Conductor D. P. Mo- Adam , for eight years in the service of the Pullman Company and the "Nurnldla" cared for by Conductor E. D , Kern , As the lucky excursionists were slowly arriving A TODll OV INSPECTION was made through the train before the start. Tho. several cars were all rolling palaces , as fine a qulntntto of them as ever rolled across the broad Missouri , but the magnlficonco of the Pullman sleeper and the luxurious ease and comfort of the parlor car were Ml thrown into the shade by the grandeur of the dining car , which ia ono of six now ones iust put on by the 0. M. & St. P. railway , which are credited with being the handsomest in America and consequently in the world. It is to this feature oapecial attention is being dlroctod by the officers of the company and therefore a brief description will bo of intorosl to all A OOJU1EOUH UAIt , They are of dark wino color , with Eistlako designs executed in gold , with nine plate gloss windows to a side , each 42 inches wide by 32 inches high. The oars are 02 foot long , nioun - od on first claw aix-whoel trucks , iitted with 42-inoh stool-tired paper wheels , on French's double elliptical rprings. Miller platforms , draw fixtures and WostinghoDBO air brakes and double land brakes complete the exterior , riiero are four boxes under each car , two being for ioo and two for moats , etc. , and each lined throughout with jalvanlzod iron , leaving air spaces between - twoon , The interior of the cars rival the oxtorlor , and is simply magnifi cent. They are fmUhud in mahogany , with trimmings of rosewood and inanjnotorie , and with hard wood ceilings. The entire middle section is devoted to dining purposes , The seats , chairs and steam plpo heat ers are of a very late style , never before fore seen on a similar car. Silver casters , containing various condi ments , are fitted to each window sill , and can bo so arranged ns not to occupy the space used for dinner by a guest. The lamps are of silver , ol rich design , There ia a handsome sideboard-room with a solid mahogany sideboard , the equal of which has rarely been soon , that occupies a pace between the pantry and dining tlpon , Everything in this room ii unshod in mahogany.

P. depot nnd across to the Transfer , where the visiting delega tion from that point joined the Omaha party , and soon wns spinning toward the heart of the Hawkeye state at a lively speed , its two score passengers all bent on enjoying the occasion to its utmost. As if nature had combined with the oflicials to show off their trains and roads to the best 'advantage , a aloT , drizzling rain had act in early in the day and kept it up throughout the trip. From the blight and cheery luxury of the dining and pal ace cars the passengers laughed at the storm and soon gathered around a fcs- tivo board , where sandwiches nnd other cold viands were spread , flanked by liquors to wash thorn down. This was only putting in a uubatantial foundation on which to rest the * KKOAL FEAST that the guests were next naked to partake of , nnd ever which they spout at least two hours and a half of time. The menu was served with a different wine at each course , Super intendent Tourtollott , of the dining car system , seeing that none disobeyed tho. scriptural injunction to "Eat , drink and bo merry. " The following was the MENU : Blue Points Half Shell. Consomme a la Kegouco , Salmon , Sauce Ilollandalso. Cucumbers. Fillet of Beef , 1'iquo aux Champignons , Tomatoes Farcies. Potatoes Duchesso. Breast of Turkey a I'Ainbaseadrice. French Peas , Punch a la Homaino. Roust Quail. Salnd. Uhecso. Charlotte Knese. Assorted Cakes. Ice Cream. Fruits. Colfso. At each pinto was laid a souvenir , laving printed upon the front the fol- 'owing : "Ohlcogo , Milwaukee nnd St. Paul Hallway. Short Line to Chicago , Inauguration. Saturday , November 1th , 1882. " Upon tno inside was the Menu , printed upon satin , fringed at the bottom , and hold in place at the center by a silk cord and tassel. Under the satin , printed upon the lower loaf of the card , were the fallowing appropri ate versos ; 'We may live without poetry , music and nrl ; Wo may live without conscience , and live without heart ; We may live without friends ; wo may live without books ; But civilized man cannot live without cooks. " "Ho may Iho without books what is knowledge but grloylcg ? He may live without hope what la hope but deceiving ? Ho may live without love what ia passion but pining ? But where Is the man that can Iho with AFlBtt blNNEH. Itiia i\ meal that would have graced the table of a king , and it is innecosoary to suy'thac it wns fully appreciated by the hungry excursion- sts as it will bo by the sovereign people ple of America generally , for just iuch dinners will be set up on this ino every day.

The "sociable" in the cars was kept up until the return to the Union Pacific transfer , at 7:30 : p. m , Wliilo on route homo the following resolutions were unanimously adopted by the party : Jlesolfftl , That the thanks of the Rutats present are hereby tendered to the Chicago , Milwaukee & St , Paul railway company for the very hospitable and pleasant man ner In which they have "entertained , " and that we as a body believe the above named company to bo all they claim ami represent.

A Pro-Hymeneal Tour In a Special Car * * > It is rumored that a big wedding will take place in a day or two , ono of the parties to which is a well-known and popular clerk in the freight audi tor's department of the Union Pacific , and the other a lady who for four years past has been in the employ of the president of the Union Pacific. A dispatch received by the gentle man a few days ago announced that the lady would arrive Friday , and accordingly ho wont ever to Council Bluffs to rajiot her. As ho did not sao her face among others on the arrival of the eastern train ho remained until evening , only to be again disappointed. The fact is that the lady did not como as a common passenger , but arrived on the morning train in Mr. Dillon's private car and had baon immediately brought ever the bridge. Driving to the headquarters in a carriigo she learned that her affianced Wasnot there and coneequontly wns somewhat at a loss to know what to do until oho met an old acquaintance who took her to his homo. The clerk arrived in the evening feeling considerably disappointed and was rather surprised to find the true state of affairs and that his pros pective bride had arrived ahead of him. However , as nils well that ends well , ho was satisfied and the mooting was as folicitious as could have boon desired. County Commissioners. SATURDAY , November 3 , 1882.

A colored men's mass mooting was hold at John Lewis' hotel Saturday croning , at which W. II. 0. Stephen- eon was elected chairman , and A. W. Parker secretary. A committee of three , consisting of C. D. Bell , A. W. Porker nnd W. II. Butler , was appointed on resolutions , nnd in just tlireo minutes loportcd a sot of cut and dried preamble and resolutions , condemning the action of tholato republican convention for not giving them representation on the legislative ticket , and onu pledging themselves not to support its candi dates. After Messrs. Boll , Parker and Stephenson hud inudo opooohcEi the aamo was adopted. The committee also reported another resolution , condemning the action of the laboring men's convention for nominating E. R. Overall , which after ! \ spirited discussion , waa laid on the table. On motion of Q. W. Wallington the workingmon's platform was read after which the mooting adjourned , CAIIU FBOM Mil. O4B3LEY. To The Editor of TIIK BEK. For the first time in thn history of Douglas county politics , the colored voters have a candidate fcr the legis lature. This distinction has been con ferred upon them by the anti-monopo list party , and ought to excite the prldo nnd appreciation of every colored voter in the state. Sinca their en franchisement the colored citizens of the north hava stood firm and true for a party , which , profcjaint ; its devo tion to equality and justice , has per sistently ignored their claims in all their party conventions , and religious ly discouraged every effort mndo by them for political preferment. Wo have witnessed how the party cau cuses and conventions each year strengthen the ticket by giving each class or nationality a representation ; but not a word or an effort , in all these years , to strengthen the ticket by giving the colored voters a repre sentation. Against this injustice colored orod men have protested. Wo have so much desired a ticket made up of citizens of all classes and trades , and Without distinction of color , and if wo do not support it , wo cannot , In the future , claim any special favor at the hands of any party , whom wo may ask for representation. The Germans command the respect of party leaders because when a Gor man is placed upon the ticket , the Germans vote for him. . So with the Scandinavians , Lot it ba BO with the colored voters. Lot them stand by Mr. Overall not on personal grounds , but because ho stands as ths rep resent at Ivo of every colored man in Douglas county , and a vote for him is n vote for all , and a vote against him is a vote against all.
