h rni'ss .Not Announced,
Tho most sweeping ndvnnco In railroad
rates ever contemplated by wcntem freight
olllclalH has ust hecu decided upon by the
railroads belonging to tho Western Trunk
l.lno committee. A horizontal mlvaneo or
S cents per 100 pounds on fourth ami llfth
class rates between Omaha, Chicago, Mis
sissippi river and Intermediate points tt an
nounced. Tho date upon which tills radical
lncreaso will boeoino effectlvo has not jet
been mailo public.
Commercial men, manufacturer!, Jobburs
uud retullers In this linmediato turrltury
wcro somewhat etartled when tho exclusive
announcement was madu In Tho lleo early
In December that such a proposition as set
forth In tho foregoing was under considera
tion by tho members of tho Western Trunk
Lino committee. At tho meeting of the
committee December 12, Ul nnd U the mut
ter was tuken up for dlscurslou. Olllclsls
of tho various railroads whose rates aro con
trolled by tho action of this committee de
clined to discuss tho nature of tho consid
eration given tho subject. Special attention
has, it has since leaked out, been given tho
matter nt ench subsequent meeting and tho
final division was reached to ndvnnco tho
rates, From tho tlmo that tho announce
ment was llrst made of tho consideration of
this proposition commercial InterestH have
hoped Hint no such arbitrary action would
bo tuken by tho freight rate-makerH.
Iinpoi'liinei' of the Advance,
Tho Importance of thin proposed advance
can readily bo appreciated when It la con
sidered that tho bulk of freight shipments,
comprising tho bluplu articles of commerce,
are transported at fourth and lltth-class
rates. Among tho most important products
of manufacture mid trade utrcctcd are: All
lrou and steel articles, sugar, coffee, chicory,
canned goods, baking powder, woodenware,
oils, giant fruit Jai'rf, all glassware, window
gl.ifcs, wlro, paper nnd molasses.
For years fourth and fifth-class rates have
remained unchanged, nnd have passed through
the stormy galci of freight rato demoraliza
tions without' being ilUdutbcd. In tho ad
vance) now agreed upon tho added tovonuo
to tho railroad companies resulting from
the aggregate Incomo of tho Increased ratos
'will bo enormous. Shippers assert now, as
they have nt nil times heretofore when rates
wcro advanced, that the. v,olsht of tho in
creases will fall upon tho consumer.
Tho present fourth and llfth-clnse ratcB
nnd tuoio contemplated by tho recent de
rision of tho Western Trunk l.lno commit
tee In tho territory nITceled nro iih follows:
llotwccn Omaha nnd, Chicago, Milwaukee,
St, Paul, Minneapolis nnd common points
Prcsont fourth-clnss rate. 32 cents; present
ilflh-cltiM rute, 27 cents; contemplated
fourth-class rate, 25 rents; contemplated
flfth-clasa rate, SO cents.
Between Omaha nnd I'eorla ami Pekin. III.,
and common points Present fourth-class
rate, 2!'Vi cents; present fifth-class rate, 2Wi
cents; contemplated fourth-class rate, 32Vi
ccntu; contemplated lifht-clnsa rate, "--cents.
Ilctween Omaha and Mississippi river and
common points Present fourth-class rate,
27 cents; present fifth-class rote, 22 cents;
contemplated fourth-class rato, 20 cents;
contemplated fifth-class rate, 2."i cents.
Hri'Mer Alone Hncii'm-.
The nmber-hued liquor produced by the"
breweries is tho only commodity exemptel
in the sweeping ndvanco of class rates, and
tho lulluence of tho brewurs Bcoms to havo
been exercised with powerful persuasion
upon tho rate-makers. Ileer taken tho llfth
i lasa rato ami in tho horizontal ndvanco of
3 cents agreed upon transportation chnrgoj
on shipments of beer would be tilted upward
In proportion with nil other llftli-clnss prod
ucts. Tho present rato between Omaha and
St. I.oiiIh on beer is 22 cents per 100 pounds
and between Omaha nnd Chicago, 27 cents.
Instead of Increasing theso rates by 3 cents
tho committee, has decided to mnko n notahlo
exception of beer and continue tho fifth-class
rato as nt present.

The general officials of tho threo rail
reads having headquarters In Omaha are
in Chicago attending a meeting of western
railroad olllclals for tho purpose of discuss
ing primarily tho live stock situation. Tho
meeting was prompted, It Is said, by tho
recent action of tho Nebraska Stato Hoard
of Transportation in demanding a reduction
in rates charged for tho transportation of
live stock. It Is believed In local railroad
circles that this conference in Chicago will
ho attended only by tho general officials
of tho lines operating In Nebraska, although
a railroad man lu position to know gave out
the Information that the meeting was a gen
eral conference of all wentcrn lines held to
discuss rates and other mntterH In general.

Politics lu South Dakota nro attracting lin
es mil attention this early In tho campaign.
Tho campaign of 1000 promises to bo the
most nctlvo and aggrcsslvo tho stato has
ever scon.
Whllo many minor Issues will enter Into
tho campaign, tho one great Issue will bo
Pcttlgrew. Tho wholo political machinery
of tho stato will movo for or against that
man. Ho Ih tho power now guiding every
movo mado by tho fusion forces. That Pettl-
grew Is tho main Issue has hecu recognized
by tho republican party anil they stand ready
to light tho battle along tlint line. They nro
already making nctlvo preparations for a
vigorous campaign and It will bo conducted
with n view of winning at every point. ,
It Is yot too early to name tho stato ticket,
but It Is generally conceded that Charles N.
Herrlcd of Eureka, tho chairman of the
republican stato central committee, will
head the republican ticket. Ills record stands
above reproach and no stronger candidate
or better man could bo found In the state.
If Governor Loe desired tho renomlnntlon
ho could doubtless secure ltwlth llltlo ef
fort, but It is thought tho fusion ticket will
bo headed by W. T. LnFallutte, who aspires
to tho place.
HUHON, S. D.. Feb. 16. (Special.) The

stato central committee on February 20, to

tho opening of tho campaign for 1000. What
town will get tho convention seems of verjj
little importance, as the town selected can
not hapo to get tho convention that shall
nominate cnudidntctj for stnto otllcerB. For
tho latter convention there will bo a lively
contest. It being nlroady practically settled
that two conventions will bo laid.
