Lincoln's Freight Bureau "Working Hard to
Justify Its Creation.
A PROTEST TO THE BURLINGTON.

The cfl'eot of establishing a freight
bureau in Lincoln Is becoming manifest ,
find the people generally believe that In
Securing John E. Utt as the commissioner
of the bureau that an active , enorgctio
man has been placed nt the helm. A
short tlmo ago the bureau issued n circu
lar to the Missouri Paciiio road showing
the discrimination that existed against
Lincoln , and Saturday a protest notice
was filed upon the Burlington road ,
Which , in cfl'ect , states that if the dis
crimination is not removed that every
ease will bo taken into tlio courts. In
conversation with ono of the gentlemen
vrho has largely Interested himself in
these matters the statement was made
thut the point Lincoln business men were
insisting on was not a rale the same as
Omaha's , but it was for a rate on thu
Whole mileage from Chicago to Lincoln
proportionate to the rate given Omaha
on the entire mileage from Chicago to
V Omaha. The form of protest prepared
for each business man receiving ship
ments from the cast gives full informa
tion m the matter , and if this protest is
cot heeded every case will bo taken in
the courts , not only from this time for
ward , but demands for the ex
fccss received and charged by the
company since tlio 1st of April last when
the inter-state commerce law wont into
effect. Following is the
NOTICE OP ritOTKST !
To the llurlmeton & Missouri Hlvcr In Ne
braska nnd the Chicago , .Burlington &
Qulncy Kail road Company ( owner ) , Their
Agents and Attorneys at Lincoln , Neb :
You will take notice that 1 or we object and
protest against payment of tlio excessive
freight charges thnt have been and are now
be I UK exacted by your company's railroad
lines to this city ou and since April 5 last
from Chlcngo and common points or origi
nating beyond for example from Chicago :
Class 1 , SI ; class 3 , 84c ; class3 , 57c : class 4 ,
Blc ; class 0 , 35c ; class A , 40c ; class it , 85c ;
class C , 88c ; class I ) , 85c ; class K , 'Jlc ; salt ,
. BfSc ; hard coal. 25c , and on lumber from Chicago
cage , 20c ; Clinton , 24c ; Minneapolis , 28
cents per Hundred pounds , and from other
points higher or lower rates according to es
tablished dllleroutlaH based on the Chicago
rato.
rato.The following reasons are given to Justify
the action taken in this Instance :
The rates and clintges are unjust and un
reasonable as compared with adjacent and
competing points for example the rates
from Chicago are : Class 1 , Wc ) ; class
C , 75c ; class 3 , 50c : class 4 , 35c ; class
5. 'Me ; class A , U'J c ; class It. ii9.Kc ;
class C , 83c ; class U , 20c ; class E , Isc ; salt ,
SOc ; hard coal , 20c ; and on lumber from Chicago
cage , SOc ; Clinton , ISc ; Minneapolis , 23c ,
per hundred pounds , other points taking the
usual dlltercntlnl.s. based on Chicago , but nil
rates are at least six cents per hundred higher
to Lincoln than to Umiilm or Louisville. A
comparison of your existing freight schedule
allows that the rates from Chicago to Lincoln
average 118 per cent of the class rates , 100
per cent on lumber ana 125 per cunt on salt
nnd bard coal nbovo rates to Omaha aud
Louisville. >
The distance , via your lines , are , from Chicago
cage to Omaha , DOS miles : from Chicago to
, Louisville , 510 miles , and from Chicago to
, Lincoln , 541 miles. If tlio mileage from Chl-
* - , cvgo to Lincoln was applied to the Louisville
* * nnd Omaha rates on a proportional basis , the
rates from Chicago to Lincoln would be 100
percent of the rates to Uiese points. At
present your llnea charge and collect more
per ton per mile on freight to Lincoln , being
the long haul , than for the short haul to
Louisville , the latter being included wholly
In the former.
The current tariffs from Chicago to Lincoln
fcrea discrimination against this locality ,
and disregard the existence of similar condi
tions and like circumstances , Lincoln being
B city of commercial Importance
competing with Omaha for supremacy In nil
territory west of the Missouri river , with
many superior natural advantages over that
point. The excessive rates to Lincoln are
the result of a collusion between tun Missouri
Pacific , Burlington A Missouri Itlver In Ne
braska. Chicago. Jiurllngton & Qulncy
( owners ) . Union Pad lie , Fremont , Elk horn
K Missouri Valley railroads andcounections ,
competing lines , compromising their dltler-
- ences , and placing this city on an extortlon-
r Bto basis by an unlawful combination.
" Therefore , I or we , give llnal notice hereby ,
that In due time an appeal will bo made to
the United States courts and the Inter-state
commerce commission for ritllot In the prom
ises , also claims will be made and payment
insisted on for reimbursement based on
equitable rates for all over charges that have
accrued or may accrue in shipments made
over your lines since April 5,1837.
This protest Is to bo signed by the parties
Buttering from the discrimination anil filed
with the company , nnd as stated In the pro
test. If the relief Is not obtained recourse
will be had to the United States court and
the Inter-state commerce commission.
I'AVINO MATTKKS.
The action of the council in acceding
to the majority petition for paving dis
trict number two with cedar blocks
makes the minority , consisting of the
Btnto Journal and the paid attorneys of
the other paving company , sick to their
tomach , but they will apparently hnvo
to take their medicine. There is a
coterie of men , including the Journal ,
thut insists on "regulating" things with-
L -cut regard to majorities , and it hurts
* them when the city council , twelve in
number , by a unanimous vote , took the
word of a majority of the property hold
ers in the second paying district nnd
I- pave them cedar blocks. Even the Jour
nal's' pot democratic mayor , that it
bolted the republican ticket to elect , fa
vors block pavement. It comes with
very poor grace for thu Journal , which
lias feasted and fattened on jobs and
4 printing steals , to call the twelve conn-
oilmen boodlors because they would not
bo "regulated" by a minority. When
the editor of the Journal heard that the
council had met and awarded the con
tract for block pavement , he swore pub
licly on the streets. It is to be hoped ,
however , that the asphalt company will
recognize that the Journal has worked
for them , and turn over a fee without
hesitancy. The Journal has earned
something and ought to have it.
A11OUT THE OlTlf.

Strong resolutions ou the rebel Hug ques
tion that were adopted unanimously. In
these resolutions one was passed espccl-

his stand taken on the question and the
vigorous language expressed by him to
the president ,
The State Journal is talking lustilv
ngainst the location of the city Tiospital
on the city park , and a citizen calls at-
lp tcmtlon to the fact that this is not locat
ing a pest house or even contagious dis-
jy * cases in that locality. The Journal
should remember that Us special pot re
form mayor that it helped to elect was
the very man who suggested the location
* of the hospital at that place.

A largo number of Lincoln citizens wil

A NEW INDUSTRY FOR SUMMER.
Hundreds of Chlcnco "Women Making
Toboggan ,
Chicago Herald ! ' 'That makes over
SO ! ) , " said tiie manager of a knit goods
manufactory yesterday , ns a young
woman with a bundle in her hands closed
tlio door behind her. " 1 advertised for
women to do crochet work at their homes
ami I've fairly * boon besieged with appli
cants ever since. "
"NVhy is them a special demand for
crochet work at this season of the year ? "
"Toboggan caps , " was the laconic
reply. " 1 ou sec , we're getting ready for
next winter's trade , and , as there seem
to bo no signs of the toboggan craze dying
out , wo want to lay in a good stock of
material to fill the denmuds of the job
bers. This crochet work is an excellent
thing , by the way , nnd there's many a
family in Chicago which is entirely sup
ported by It. It doesn't require much
skill , and a woman with any aptitmlo for
that kind of work can easily crochet ten
caps Hi the course of a day. Wo pay 10
cents a cap , t > o you see a woman can
make a nice little income out of tlio work.
Strange to say , however , most of our ap
plicants arc married women , who are
supported in comfortable style by their
husbands. They have everything they
want except pin money , and they take
this means of getting it. After all , it's
sort of an amusement for them , too.
After their household duties arc
over , and they find their
time hanging heavily on their
hands , they can take out a cap nnd
work on it' 'Why , ' said a woman to mo
this morning , 'I think this is just a splen
did schema. I don't care if I don't make
more than $1 a week : it will keen mo in
icecream. ' Sonic firms require the
crochotcrs to make a doposite before they
take the work homo , but wo nuvor do.
I've been in the business over ten years ,
nnd 1'vo ' never known the firm to lose an
ounce of material. No , the people who
do this kind of work arc honest. "
At this point a buxom young matron
entered the manager's ollicc , leading a
little girl by the hand. "Oh , Mr. , "
she exclaimed , "I want material for six
do/on caps. Wo'vo started a society on
the West Side ; and we're going to have a
capping bee every day. It's just too do-
ligutful for anything , and I'm going to
make ever so much pin mouoy this sum
mer. "
"That is just the way it goes , " Haul the
manager after tlio applicant for material
had departed. "Now , I Know that
woman. Her husband is head clerk in a
big store clown town , and gets a salary
of $1,800 n year. She has no nocd of
money ; it's only a freak in which she has
induced some of her friends to partici
pate. They'll soon tire of it , though.aud
then some ono more In need of the money
will receive the bench't. "
BETRAYED BY HIMSELF.
A Fellow \Vho Didn't AVnnt to Go to
War Gives Himself Away.
Cincinnati Star : "I remember a funny
experience I had during the war , " said a
leading physician to-day. "I was up at
Camp Dennison examining the con
scripts , ami many heart-rending pleas
for exemption 1 had to refuse. One day
a farmer , a Gorman , a peaceable minded
fellow , who thought more of his turnips
and cabbage than ho did of military
glory , was brought in to mo. "
" 'Doctor , ' ho said. 'I am not fit to go
to the war , I am all crippled up with
rheumatism. '
"Where1 said I.
" 'In my right arm ; 1 can only raise it
voost so high,1 raising his hand about two
inches from his body with apparent great
effort.
" 'Well you have got it pretty bad,1
said I , 'you certainly can't go to war in
that condition. How high could you
raise your arm before you trot rheuma
tism r
' 'Oh , so high-said ho raising his arm
high above his. That was just what I
expected , and giving him a push I sent
him along out to bo sent to the war. "
The President's Salary.
Haltimoro American : .A great deal of
talk has been occasioned by the mention
of the fact that the president always used
new money. Some people laugh at the
idea that ho handed a crisp now $100 bill
to Dr. Sutherland for his marriage fee ,
and , again , that ho put a crisp now $0
bill in the collection plato at the Oakland
church. People said : "Why , the pres
ident must have money made especially
for him. " The truth is , the president
always recoivo's now notes direct from
tlio treasury. Ho never gets old notes ,
except in change when he pays a bill or
makes a purchase. The United States
treasurer , on the last day of each month ,
Bonds the president his i alary $1,1130.00
the odd change in bright Jiow silver and
copper cents , and the notes all now and
of the latest issue. Mr. Cleveland , like
his predecessors , keeps a private bank
account with Briggs & Co , , and the day
after ho gets his salary ho makes a deposit ,
reserving enough to pay current ex
penses. It is said that his account has
shown as largo a balance ns $35,000.as he
has an income besides his ollicial salary.
Before he entered public life he made
from f 10.000 to ? 15,000 a year by his prac-
tice.and his expenses wore not more than
| 9,000. He has saved much of bis first
year's salary , but now that ho is married
his expenses will increase.
In making the assertion that Pozzoni's
medicated complexion powder is entire
ly free from injurious or deadly poisons
wo do it upon the authority of a thorough
chemical analysis. It is ono of the oldest
fuco powders in American market , and
is used in tlio faraalles of some of our
most prominent medical men who have
personally acknowledged to the proprio-

"Do you understand about notes of

"Ithiukso. "
"Wall , I had a feller's note for $20. It

"And you indorsed the amount on the

"I did , hey ! Was dat do way to do ? "
"Of course. How did you do ? "

Lcwlston , Mo. , Journnl : "Tho rich

n steam wagon , too , if they will como to
Lowlston nnd essay what the tccmlnir
brain of n rcmnrkubc Lcwiston inventor
has attained ,
Inn smalt.one-story building , some
what back from the dusty highway of
Uanal street , Lowlston , you can lind the
machine. The buildihg looks as though
it had been built for it. It la about : H
bie ns a now-fanglcd hennery , and has
two windows , one in each side. Glance
through the windows and you see n won-
derous thing , in wheels , and boiler nnd
smokestack , standing bolt upright in the
middle of the lloor a spectacle that , in
the days of the Salem witcheries , would
have hung the owner of the building and
Us mysterious contents higher than
Human.
15ut you ask , "Is it mysterious ? "
Not a bit of it , dear.
It is lust a modern invention a big
thing to be given out just iti keeping with
this latter age , when all the world's
thinking iust us tight as it can gallop of
how it is possible to move and think
faster stil. It is a machine to propel you
over the country roads a mile a minute.
It is a contrivance to outrun the wiry
"reader , " and to pass the Maud S.sand
Jay-Eye-Sces , ns though they were
'litched to a brick block.
It is something to climb hills , clatter
> vcr pnvcmunts.bowl over country roads ,
'amble over beaches , whisk around cor
ners , back up to basemonts.haul loads on
wharves or hum around the race track ,
't is a steam wagon. It is everything that
ho imagination cnn picture such a con.
rivancc to be , and , best of all , it scorns
certain to work ; for it is built , so far as
ho professional nnd unprofessional eye
inn see. on the commonsonsc planand is
'airly bristling with inventions and was
ivell applied.
An Auburn clergyman , a local con
noisseur of the her c , an enthusiast on
the nineteenth century of American pro
gress , nSabatis mill owner , the invent
ors and the Journal , seven in all. viewed
tlio machine nt 1J ( o'clock Saturday fore
noon , nnd the iirst four named asked
more questions than an infant class. The
Enthusiast ( largo "E" please ) , was do-
'ighted , the clergyman unpronounccd ,
ho connoisseur exhibited mental reser
vation in favor of the "nobil animil"tho
inventors were calm and confident , the
mill owner had seen or hoard of such
hings in Germany , while the Journal
was more than pleased. "
In thu iirst place it is n wagon. It is
built on the principal of a grocery wagon.
Some of the extra heavy grocery teams
on thi- street might have served for the
basis of the contrivance , except the in
ventor , Edwin F. Field , of the iirm of
Field & Crawshaw , of this city , desired
that it be extra strong , and so ho had thu
wheels and axels and cross-bars , etc. ,
built a trillo heavier than on the ordinary
grocery wagon. Its shape is the same.
Its wheels are the same in size and shape.
Its wagon body its exactly the same ns
that of the ordinary delivery wagon ,
with iron bands. The boiler , which is
upright , sits on the roar axle. Power is
applied by cogged wheels to the rear
axle , to which the hind wheels are
rigidly nflixed , so that the movement of
the machinery propels the wagon , The
front wheels are independent of machin
ery , and arc simply steering gear. The
engine is a double cylinder condensing
engine , controllen by the link motion ,
exactly as in the locomotive.
It can bo reversed or stopped from the
driver's scat. Water is carried in a small
tank under the wagon bed. The engines
exhaust into the boiler the exhaust
being easily controlled from the driver's
seat. Thonoileris a live-horbu power ,
tested to 400 pounds pressure , and capa
ble of carrying 500 ! wounds without the
slightest dilliculty. The engines develop
four-horse power with 100 pounds press
ure , or twelve-horse power with 800
pounds.
With hard coal the boiler will make no
smoke or steam. The design of the
builders is to conceal everything , and
they expect ; when finished , that the con
trivance will not bo very odd in appear
ance , and that it will not frighten horses
any more than a bicycle or a street
sprinkler.
Every portion of the machinery is made
with the view of strength. Various in
ventions on the boiler make it specially
valuable , while every part of the engine
has been designed and built expressly for
the purpose , and is full of oddities and
inventions. The axles are stcclo and the
wheels iron-hubbcd. The hind wheels
are thirteen feet in diameter.
The water tank holds half a barrel and
would sutlico for a run of twonty-livo
miles.
"Havo von ever run it ? " was asked of
Mr. Fields. "Yes , " was the reply. "We
have worked the engines and the wheels ,
but haven't tried it on the ground yet. "
"It was a great success. The hind
wheels went in a perfect bu// . Wo esti
mated it at 80 revolutions n minute , and
as the carriage will advance about live
feet at a revolution , wo reckon thatmak
ing due allowance , the wagon would
have been going considerably faster than
a two-minute clip. I don't practically
see nny limit to the attainment of speed
except the courage of the driver. "
Mr. Field has about completed the ma
chine. A description dees it no sort of
credit , and the public should see it to
appreciate it. There is no sort of doubt
but that the machine will go , nnd but
that it can bo steered and controlled.
From the wayside brook the tank can bo
filled , and from the coal locker the ( ires
of the boilor. Mr. Field thinks that the
machine can go a mile n minute , IIu
will have the hind wheels drilled nnd
corrugated for teeth , provided there is
not friction enough , but ho says that ho
has no fear about the friction.
Germans In London.
The Nineteenth Century : There was
a grain of truth in the jest
ing expression of a Gorman resident :
"Thcro is still n lot of English in
London. " A German was more justified
in saying this than any other foreigner
would have been , for by far the larger
portion of the foreign clement present
in London is recruited from the "Fath
erland. " Thu proportion is so high as to
be usually estimated at not less than six-
sevenths. Whereas the other foreign
colonies are more or less limited to cer
tain quarters , the Germans are distrib
uted over all the districts of the colossal
city. According to some their number
is 35,000 .others make it 70,000 ; a third
estimate even doubles this last calcula
tion ; but throughout England there can
hardly bo fewer than a quarter of a mil
lion , If we include the Gorman-speaking
Austrians and Swiss. It may therefore
be fairly assorted that the German colony
in England is , after that of North
America , the largest German group in
nny extra-Gorman state. * * * * *
The modern German colony ot London
owes its oricrin and iU extraordinary
spread in great part to the fact
that Queen Victoria , herself the
scion of a German dynasty like her pre
decessor Anne , chose a Gorman prince
for her husband. Albert brought ever
many of bis countrymen , directly und in
directly. Ho was the means of introduc
Ing a wider extension of the German
language among his adopted country
men , and bringing the German name in
better odor. It u to him and to the
events of 1870 and 1871 , as well as to the
patriotic effort of Kinkcl. Karl Wind
Frciligroth , nnd many others , that the
Gormann settled in England feel themselves
solves to be Germans nvnnt tout. Unco a
man emigrates his nationality is. as a
rule , endangered ; the German emigrant
especially , is usually in a great hurry to
throw'oiYth.0 old Adam and Identify him
self with the new .surroundings. It is
this very adaptability which has much to
lo with tlio success which generally nt-
ends his settlement in foreign countries ,
The London Germans , however , ns a
whole , do not prove recreants to their
origin , nnd have even taken many en
ergetic measure ? to assert their German
nationality , which they have generally
succeeded in maintaining intact. They
ako lively interest in thu moral and in-
ellectiuil efforts and in the political life
of their f athcrland. This was shown con
spicuously , inter alia , on the occasion of
ho Schiller festival in 1809 , during the
list Franco-German war , In the Schlco-
vig-ilolstcin afl'air , etc.
THE TYPEWRITER.
What in lleriulrcil to Insure Success.
New York Graphic : The typewriter ,
f it is notatroadv , is rapidly
joeomlnjr mightier than the pen.
There is a typewriter and stenographer
attached to all the hotels here as is prob
ably the case in every other city , homo
of the stenographers are making a great
leal of money by a little extra enter
prise. To niaku n great success it is
iccessary to combfuq literary ability
with mechanical qualifications. The ob
server was talking to the young man at a
oading hotel the other day and ho re-
ated several amusing things in conncc-
ion with his business. Ho found when
10 Iirst started that there were a great
natiy men who made a name for them
selves in the business world who were
iiiable by the use of their pens to com-
> osu a letter ; but they were good talkers ,
tic would take their dictation , polish it
up a little and when the work was com
plete It possessed some literary merit.
Jf course this pleased this class of pa
trons ; and many of them who did not
write two letters a week would send out
treble that number a day. To these men
there is a great fascination in talking to
i stenographer , and a man unaccustomed
, o it is often astonished at the result of
Ins conversation , particularly when the
stenographer looks out for thu punctua
tion and superfluous words. By adver
tising in some of the papers ho has been
able to get n good deal of liter-
rar.y work , not only from men ,
nit from ladies. Among his
patrons aru n number of shop cirls
whose education lias been sadly neglect
ed. Still they are ambitious to create an
impression thnt they arc not without lit
erary talents. They have love-letters
written , winding up with poetry of a
most sentimental character. Besides ,
they admire seeing these produced by
means of a typewriter , ns it has for
them about as much fascination as it has
for the spring poet to see his effusions in
cold typo. This enterprising young man
is also called upon to turn out works of
fiction , and has written speeches for
ward statesmen.
But the most amusing feature in this
line is the work ho does for his male pat
rons. Some of them will start to dictate
an ordinary letter ; but as Mr. Beacons-
Held once said , when thay get to talking
they "become intoxicated with the ex
uberance of their own verbosity " and
before they know it they have enough
dictated to make a column in an ordinary
newspaper. It has become the fashion
of a number of New York swells to keep
stenographers regularly employed. Ono
well-known dude keeps , a diary and dic
tates for two hours every night before
he retires. If it could bo published it
would bo pretty sure to make mighty in
teresting reading. It , wus very amusing
a short time ago to liea'r a western sen
ator , who was dictating to a stenographer
intho corridor of n hotpl. Ho had never
been known to make a speech while in
the senate , but as lie talked to the sten
ographer on this occasion ho grew quite
eloquent. Suddenly he forgot his sur
roundings and let himself out. Ho
walked up and down and talked in a
very loud tone , gesticulated with both
hands , and soon had quite an audience ,
but he kept right abend and was unem
barrassed. There are lots of people who
dictate out loud in the corridors of the
hotels simply to attract attention , and it
tickles them greatly it you t > top and lis
ten to them.
For fear of loosing a day's workt many
persons put oil' taking physic until Satin -
in day. The better plan is to not delay
but take it as soon ns needed , it may save
you a hard spell of sickness. If you
want the most benefit from the least
amount of physio without causing you
any inconvenience , loss of appetite or
rest , take St. Patrick's Pills. Their action
on the liver and bowels are thorough ,
they give a freshness , tone and vigor to
the whole system and act in harmony
with nature.
Who Built Atlanta ?
"Why , this looks like a northern city ! "
That is the first remark the northerner
makes who is permitted the felicity of
looking on tins fair town , says thu At
lanta Constitution. The bustle , the rush ,
the fine buildings , the ccneral get-up und
hustle sort of atmosphere , bjds him to
Hatter the average northern city by com
parison.
His next remark is : "Well , I've always
hoard it'was built by northern men und
capital , and I guess it must bo so. "
But it wasn't.
It was built by "crackers. " By young
follows m jeans und homespun who came
up from Georgia country sides by young
confederates , who came in from the
neighborhood in their faded gray clothes ,
and east Tennessee rebels who drifted
this wny because their own country was
too hot to hold them. From every com
munity snd country cross-road in
Georgia como the men who made At
lanta , us the veins of the human body
lead back to the human heart. Of all
cities , this is pre-eminently the homo of
the "cracker" built by his energy and
dominated by his ideas.
We have in twenty-one years , starting
from such desolation as can barely bo
conceived.accumulatcd $35,000,000 worth
of realty ( not counting thu suburbs ) built
sixty-seven churches , furnished free
schools Jor eight thousand childrenspent
millions of dollars in streets , gathered
( Vi.OOO inhabitants , and made such a
reputation for enterprise that Chicago is

Evorjf roeiiTrees. ! .
Germantown Telegraph : Besides pro
ducing a pleasing landscape cfl'ect thut
can be produced in no other way , the
planting of evergreen , trees affords u
protection from cold winds in winter to
the dwelling and outbuildings. Spruce ,
fir , and arbor vitsu tree $ are free growers ,
nnd if sot when quite small , the acu will
bo more likely to bo attended with suc
cess than if the trees are larger. The
protection which they atlbrd to orchards
often produces excellent results. Where ,
for ctleotn circular enclosure was formed
of arbor vitas surrounding a pear tree ,
the size of the fruit and increased productiveness -
ductivoness of the trees as compared
with others outside were marked.
The same was true of trees set in the
row with the evergreens , showing con
clusively the favorable influence exerted
by them.

a well-known literary society , addressing
a woman who had just been admitted ,
"for what was wit before marriage be

"That's a fact , " replied the now mem

"Satirical V" added the old member.
"Oh , awfully" > o. Ho just sits right

I can stand him as long as ho talks , bu
when ho becomes satire it breaks me al
