OMAHA NORTHERN RAILROAD
A Itouto Proposed und a Vital Inter
est Considered--Connection With
Dakota North ol' "Ynnlclon
A Hluok IIIIlM llranch
In the Kilt tiro.
OMAHA , Nov. ii. : [ To the 1-Mitor : ]
Omaha Ls at last waking up to the fad
lhatshomiisi have ti northern railroad ,
: on > lruelcd by Omaha , and solely under
ho control of an Omaha interest , it
makes no dilleronco what other roads
ire already existing , the now ono mint
) ? established and operated for the bcne-
lit of Omaha. Il has taken a longtime
, o come to this determination. In self-
lefcnso the matter must now bo consum
mated. This projccl .should have been
entered upon years ago. If Om-ilui is lo
bo metropolitan in the Missouri valley ,
as many believe she i.s destined to be , thu
way lo accomplish the result of a surety
is to reach out and grasp and forever
hold Ihe lerrilory which legitimately be
longs to us.
Our sister city , up Iho river aud in an-
oilier slate , has shrewdly taken adx'an-
lage of our apathy. Wo lind her in al
most absolute possession of suvoral of
the counties of northeastern Nebraska
wliiuh are bound lo bu heavily populated
ere long splendid counties , who-je trade
fairly belongs to Omaha , and which trade
we must resolutely institulo measures to
secure. This can only bo done by an
Omaha Northern railroad , under the
control , exclusively , of enterprising cit
izens devoted to the expansion and
stability of our growth and trade. At
present , Cedar , and Dixon , and Dakota
counties , to say nothing of others , belong
to Sioux City , as much as Ihmigh in Iowa.
A cursory examination of a railroad
map shows this , liy a southwestern
road she gets to Norfolk , in Madison
county , and by a northwestern branch
from Wakoliold tip the North Logan val
ley , she gels to Hartington , in the center
ot Cedar county. Tne latter place is
tit'ty miles west of Sioux City , but i.s
reached by an ox-bow railroad ronle of
about seventy-live miles. If Yankton , in
Dakota , is to be the objectivepointof _ the
new road , there is , beyond question , a
way to reach it , and at Ihe same lime se
cure the trade of the territory lo which
Omaha is entitled.
This brings up the consideration ( of
the exact proper route. It is admilled at
once that Mr. McShane's idea is correct ;
that tlio road must bu ut least 150 miles
long in order to bu successful , ll is
Liken for ifranted. also , that the hue
out of Omaha will no , most probably , to
Kennard , in Washington county , about
twenty-live miles northwest ; . From
thence iu the.samo direction , it is about
l-.l miles to Ynnkton. Omaha and Yank-
ton , therefore , are about 101) ) miles apart ,
in a straight line , with an intervening
country of almost unexampled fertility ,
having hardly an aero but what will
yield profusely all the staple soil pro
ducts incident to Nebraska , in
cluding corn products which , so far
as the eastern counties are
concerned , will seek a market at Omaha ,
or Sioux City , agreeably to the transpor
tation facilities aUordcd. Suppose a
bridge is to be built at YuitkUm , and Da
kota pcoplj aud what they raise , are
seeking metropolitan Omaha , and the
question comes up , looking southward
troin the Nebraska pior.as to which way.
east or west , Iho line of the new road
shall delleet , to produce the greatest
benefit and to till the bill regarding the
expectations of those concerned in its
construction. Look at the map and
study Ihis point a few minutes. Trace ,
with an inclination southeastward
through llio northcasttownsliipsof Cedar
county , along Kast liow creek , llien
souiiruirough the western townships of
Dixon county , thus keeping well inside
and east ot'tlielLirtinglon branch ro.td ,
and then make either for Wakclield in
Dixon county , or Wayne in Wayne
county. If thu lallor place is preferred ,
thu crossing of thu Hartington branch
very likely will bo attho lir.sl stationCon
cord , nine-miles out of Wakoliold as the
depression in Um properdireetion of what
is called Logan Slough can bo profitably
utilized . If VVakclicid is preferred , moro
of : Sioux City's territory can bu invaded
by wiirkingtowards the center townships
of Dixon county from the head of Kast ,
liow creek. Hut , whether the route shall
bu o.v way of Wayne or Waketield. the
course is then clear for llio bountiful val
ley of Plum Creek in Ihu direct ion of
West Point , or vicinity , in Cuming coun
ty , and from tliencu to Ivcnnard in Wash
ington county.
if the future is to be looked after as
thu community develops , ; yi.l Om.ilia's
desire shall bo , as time progresses to
lean towards Niobr.tra and the Hlaelc
Hills with her own road , either Wavno
or Wakoliold or Concord can bit regarded
as an excellent point of detiartnn ) for a
deeper cut northwest. It may bu re
marked that no shorter route can bo
adopted than the one indicate.I , ami the
opinion is ventured thai it will be much
the cheapest as the irenil of the
streams snow p rtieularly Husl How
creek and Plum Creuk. It is doubtful
if any sinuosities will make thu road
longer , than l.VS ni'les ' between Omaha
ami Yankton. Tno route proposed
deviates very llltlu between the two
places from a biralght line the line
being considerably t < > thu westward of
north and thu eastern dolleetiou from
said line , as compared with a western
( me , it i.s obvious , will bu of inestimable
value to Omaha.
Of onu thing the eili/.cns of Omaha
may bu eonlidently assured. If ibis
route is pursued m conbtructingr the
Omaha Northern un a line of railroad
truly their own , the , merchant , other
business men aud people generally of
Omaha will bu gratiliod in seulug their
friends periodically from thu northeast
ern counties they will bu spared the
contliimd mortilleatlon of knowing that
thu trade of tins rapidly developing re
gion goes to enrich a city In another

OX ) . And thlsjcnormouH body of our
nalional wonlth is absolutely'wltliotit | > ro-
tection in the west where $300H)0UUO ( ) of
ills located. It is tiio i'a = iiiion nowadays
to abuse the cattlemen and beef growers
jut as if the production of beef wna of
no conscqueuco lo the people of thu
United Slalom. Cheap meat and cheap
breadsluiVs are the great wiints of our
people , and beef leads both wheat and
corn as an nrtic.lo of prime nccr.isity.
Why then should the cattle raisers bo
abused ? \Yould it not be better lo pro-
t ! ct BO great an industry and oneourago
our ealtlemon to rsiUp more and Imttgr
rattle "o that if possible the people may
have cheaper and better mealto eat. The
demand and consumption will ntwnys
regulate the prices , hut if there is any
thing in this \uu'ld our neoplo need just
now it is more luef : and lower nrices. An
o\vi production of beef will always be n
blessing in Americ.a to our poor people ,
and L am in favor of protecting and en-
con rajring the American cattle grower
instuad of : i Musing and discouraging him
in we have been doing.
What is it the cattlemen want , do you
ask ? Protection of their business and a
just recognition of their industry by the
government , people and press , I reply.
All sort1 * of laws have been made lo pro-
tecl the farmer , the merchant , railroad
corporations , bankers , and about every
body nnd everything bill cattlemen. And
this great industry which represents
moro wealth than any olhur one industry
of our comrtry is loll to shift for itsclt.
To read the papers , one would think llio
man who is engaged in the honest and
useful calling of raising beef for thu
'
people to eal'was doing something dis
reputable or criminal. They are called
cattle barons aud cattle kings , monopo
lists , and oven thieves. It is true they
occupy and use government lauds thoi
do not own , but whoso fault is that ?
It is the fault of the govern
ment itself. The government has never
protected the cattle men in their business
or otlered them a chance lo buy or lease
its hinds on which to conduct their busi
ness. 'J'ho government has found time
to pu&3 laws and give away to railroad
corporations millions upon millions of
acres of its bust lands , yet it could not
lind litno to legialnle for llio poor caltle
men whose aggregaled wealth , the re
sult of their own honest industry , is
greater than Ihti capital of all the rail
roads combined , free of debt ,
The time has" colno for the wealth in
catlle to assent iUolf. The cattlemen
have waited long enough for some one to
help them and now they should help
themselves. Fifty or one hundred mil
lions expended " in protecting their
' business will be none too much.
' As to tho" method in which
they Should1" exnornl it I
will not preiund'lo ' say , but it might be
well enough to send .sixty or a hundred
cattle niun to congress and a do/on or
Iwo to the senate lor ti while. The rail
road men have their members , the farm-
era their members , Ihc bankers their
members and even the woolmen have
representation on llio lloor.of congress ,
while llio cattlemen v.ilh their $1,0 M- ,
( ) iiUOO ) ) have only one member devoted to
their interests , llio Hun : Joseph Carc.v ,
of Wyoming. 1 1 is past limn that the cattle
men had ii better understanding with
their government and ( hey must have it
KOOII or their business will go to rack
and ruin. Suppose some line morning
the president wore lo order that all cat
tlemen should gra/.n their oattlo on hind
'
actually owned 'by them and lo which
they held litlq , what would become of
Ihu caltle business of the west ? 'J'ho
president has a right to do this and may
do it at any timo. The use of llio pub
lic grass for grazing cattle is
a privileiro and not a right , Ivvurv cattle
man who raises cattle on the public hind
is in Hie eye of Ihc law a trespasser und
can , at any time the president jdeaccs ,
bo interdicted from the use of public
land or uublic grass for ptock raising
purposes. No other men ever did busi
ness so blindly as the cattlemen have
done it. No other men would invest
their money in a business which they had
not a right lo ply. The manufacturer ,
before he builds Ins factory , fjocure.i the
silo on which to erect his buildings ; the
farmer before he plants his lield secures
11 right to the ground in which ho plants ;
i oven the railroad before it builds gets a
right of way , but the cattleman jroes up
on public land aud raises his o.ittlu on do
main which is not his own and to which
ho has nol even a shadow of u title. It
, will bo said that this is not
I the catllcmnn's fault as ho can
neither buy nor lease thu lands on
I which ho does biibiness. Tins is true ,
' , but it does not excuse him from being u
! tresspasser and it will not save him when
' his trouble comes. Hero again wo comeback
back to our lirst proportion thai the cat
tlemen must help themselves. They must
in-a word so inlurcHt Iho governmonl in
their business its to make it givn them
i protection llio sumo that it Inui other in-
I dustries of lussur Importance to thu people
ple and lesier value to Ihu government
I itself. My own idea would bu to add an-
i other gradu to the public lands to bo
| known us the "grazing lands of tlio
United States , " and lease the public
/jniss / upon them to cattlemen for term of
live years. I would survey all tno puullo
lands and divide llieni up into ,
1st , Agricultural land * * ,
! M , Mineral liuulrf.
8d , Timber lauda.
4lh , Gra/.ing Iud3. : (
Those lands , whould bo rcjjraded

must have hoof an v.r.ll as wheat , oats ,

A Statement From Superintendent
1'leroo.
Superintendent Pierce , of Iho county
poor farm , iu reply to the KKE'S editorial
criticising him for his disbursement of
ralions among a corlain number of
women of ill-repute , admits that there
are several such women on his list , but
thai Ihey are in deslitulu circumstances
and have children who must bo fed. Hy
giving rations lo these women their
children are not only kent from begging
from house to house and iion ] ) the street ,
but are given \\r. \ opportunity to attend
Bchool , and it is the belief of
Mr. Pierce that these children , such
us are of Bohool age , do go to school.
This is his only object in assisting them.
"One of the , women on the list , " said Mr.
Pierce , "is a now acquisition , and she
has been sick for POIUO lime. I put these
persons on the list myself , after investi
gating tho.r cases , and ascertaining
whether they are actually in dKstittito
circumstances. I do not question the
morals of a Hull'ering person. I do not
know whether the county commissioner.- *
are aware of all the circumstances in all
these oases. One woman who has an
idiotic child is given i"iO cents a week ,
but this in in addition to rations , and ai
the direction of thu commissioners. 1
don't give any of these persons coal. 1
did give them Rome last winter during
the extreme cold weather. If these people
ple are not taken euro of in this way ,
they will have to become in
mates of llio noor house. Il is
about as broad as il is loiml
It is a dilllcult problem to solve ami 1
am doing Iho best I can under the cir-
cuin.-lanccs. 1 am only temporarily talc
ing care of these persons , a.s I have
urged the county commissioners to ap
point a man to do notliingelsn but look
after the destitute poor of llio city ,
whether good or bad I am restricted in
the quantity of supplier dealt out. The
record shows everything I do and the ac
counts are audited every week by the
commissioners and are carefully looked
over by Mr. Points , who as you know , is
an honest man and an expert account
ant. There is no jobbery or polities in
this business , 1 assure you. I am buying
supplies , for instance , from one imin
whom I don't even know , but I know bis
prices , and 1 make purchases at whole-
Bale establishments as well. "
