To the Public- We are not in the habit of
trying our lawsuits through the newspapers
or grumbling nt any kind of n fight those
opposed to us may sec fit to adopt, but tho
general course of conduct of the Omaha &
Council Illuffs Ititllwny and llrldge company,
nnd particularly the Interview of someone
connected with Unit company published In
the Nonparlcl on Sunday morning, seems to
us to require a statement. While Mr. Dim
mock does not openly mnke tho charge that
someone connected with our street railway
enterprise tapped the feed wire of his com
pany for tho putposo of stealing power, yet
lie adopts nn Infinitely more unfair method
by lutlmnlltig such to be the ense. Whether
or not I hero was n connecting wire between
the two feed wires we hnvo only the state
ment of Mr. Dlmmork and the knowledge
that he wns In some manner tampering with
our wire. The Information enme to us very
early In the morning that Mr. Plmmock nnd
his foreman were doing something with our
line Just about daylight ami upon being dis
covered they Immediately nbandoned the
work that they were eugnged In and hid be
hind tho church. Wo cannot understand, of
course, why these gentlemen, If engaged In
protecting their own power, would Hint It
necessary to select such nn extremely curly
hour, nnd then upon being discovered would
endeavor to escape identification. Tho fact
Is that no ono connected with our company
had anything to do with placing nny connec
tion between the two wlrca nnd there wns
certainly no reason why nny Biich thing
should be done. Wo hnve nrrnngements
made with the Omaha Street Unllwny com
pany for the furnishing of power for our
construction work nnd such has been the
cane for about otic month, nnd this wns all
the purpose for which we had nny use for
electric power. There was, therefore, uo
necessity or reason why we should require
nny nddltlounl power. If there wns nny con
nection between tho two feed wires It was
certainly placed there by some one other
thun those connected In nny wny with the
Suburbnn line, nlthough we have no infor
mation ns to who did It nnd can think of no
reason why It should be done, unless by
someone Interested In discrediting the Sub
urban compnny by trying to create the Im
pression that It had been guilty of such n
disreputable net.
It hns been tho persistent practice of the
Omaha & Council Illuffs Hallway nnd Bridge
company to put this compnny in a had light.
It la said In the Interview Mr. Dlmmock
made n proposition to Mr. Tinley for tho
furnishing of power on Sunday, July 1. No
such proposition wns made and Mr. Dlm
mock knows full well that Mr. Tinley Is not
the propere person to whom such a proposi
tion should be made, but that he should
make It to Mr. Heed, who Is the ccneral
manager of tho Suburban compnny. The
fact Is, however, that at Innumerable times,
when the old Manawa company was operat
ing tho lake line by steam, It endeavored In
every way possible to get Mr. Dlmmock nnd
tho other officers of the bridge company to
furnish power so thnt the line might be
transformed from Bteam to nn electric line,
but wns always met with the answer that
they did not wish to be connected with the
Lake Manawa company. In this snmo con
nection tho public may be Interested In n
brief statement of the course of tho Omaha
& Council Illuffs Hallway and Ilrldgo com
pany toward the Suburban compnny from
its beginning and from this statement thu
public may Judge of thu deep Interest Mr,
Dlmmock nnd the bridge company has In
seeing the Suburban people operate their
Hue at once.
Immediately ofter Townsend, Heed & Co.

belongs to us.
For nenrly n year now the Suburban com
pany hns been paying to the labor of this
city from JS.000 to M6.H0O per month. The
men Interested In thu Suburban company
canto to Council Dluffs In the best of faith,
believing thnt there wns n demand for an
enterprising and up'-lo-dnte street railway
ono that would not refuse to expand, would
not haggle over the expense of n couple of
hundred dollars, thereby depriving the peo
ple of transportation to the park, would not
object to paying n few dollars towards
strengthening a bridge belonging to the peo
ple, an expense made necessary by reason of
the company's use, would not refuse to pay
the pcoplo for the paving that they had
placed down In the streets, would not scoop
up the grading belonging to the people with
out replacing It, one that would pay Its
tnxes without each year compelling n, suit,
believing that this was nnd would be it prof
Itnblo Held for such a company these men
have expended their money nnd, regardless
of whatever opposition tho bridge line mny
place In our way and regardless of the an
noying and expensive lawsuits that they
hnvo forced upon us, this line will be built
and we believe tho people of this city will
appreciate a street railway operated by busi
ness men capable of understanding thnt tho
people hnve some rights that corporations
should respect. We nsk the people to have
n little patience ttnd we will overcome the
obstructions of tho llrldge company and give
them such a street railway line.

Colonel C. (J. Saunders. Mr. Ilnlnbrldge's
letter all tuow- that tho rising of tho lloxei.i
was little- anticipated. Writing last .sum
mer to Colonel Saunders, Mr. Ralubrldge I
ays:
We nre spending the summer among the
hills, about tlfteen miles out from tho city,
living In n lluddhist temple. It 1.4 n beauti
ful spot. Tho view from our door Is unob
structed clear to l'ekln. and In tho uller
nnnn we can see the reflection from tho
yellow roofs of tho palaces. Ruck of us
rises Mount llruce and nearby thu higher
peak of Mount Ihirllr tame. These, of
course, are. tho foreign names of the moun
tains, derived from early Kngllsh and
American ministers. The emperor's summer
palace Is not far away. Tho surrounding
scenery Is very tine. I like especially to get
out ntnong thn people of the villages and
farms. This morning I took a long walk
alone, following the paths through the corn
and millet ilelds, nnd v?very now and then
meandering through n village, always meet
ing with n pleasant nod and kindly spoken
greeting, whether In the lonely path or In
the street. There's n little naked kid so
high at one of the farm houses near who
always runs out and shouts "11'ao" at mo
every time I pass. A little girl Haw mo
coming the other day and run Into her
house and got it pretty flower, which she
held up to me ns I w-tnt by. This Is tho
kind of Chinese rlotB 1 have experienced so
fur.
Tho redundancy of llfo hero Is something
remarkable. Ono expects and soon becomes
accustomed to tho Interminable crowds of
tho cities. Hut even here In tho country It
In simply Impossible to get tho Chinese nut
of sight. I hnvo tested it frequently, fixing
my gnzo nn what seemed tho barest nnd
steepest slopes nf the mountains and In
variably there Is sure to appear n China
man with his broad straw lint and bamboo
over shoulder carrying baskets of farm
produce or bunches of shrubs for winter
fuel. In this sense China Is certainly
"alive " Ono morning early I clambered
far up the steep sldo if Mount Rruce, nearly
to the summit. I stopped to take In the
view, thinking I was absolutely alone. Rut
on looklnir around I saw suiiattlng comfort

Dewey Dell, the 20-months-old son of
Thomui, Densley, living at Clara, tho first
Utlou north of Uuuucll Blurt on the
credited nur cnterptiuo and this article wns
by him sunt to nearly every banking house
and broker In the country. He then caused
nrtlcles of tho snmo character to bo pub
lished In the street railwoy journals. Dif
ferent members of tho bridge compnny either
wrote to or personally Interviewed nenrly all
of tho people from whom wo wcro buying
material and supplies nnd nttcmpted to In
duce them to refrain from selling to us tho
necessary material, telling them that tho
Suburban company was Irresponsible finan
cially nnd thnt tho mntcrlnl would not bo
paid for nnd In the samo Interview they
would show a list of the members of their
own company who were residing In Omaha
and point out their extremo wealth and then
compare it with tho list of thoso connected
with tho Suburban company. Ono of the
members of tho board of directors of tho
brldgo company persistently endeavored to
Induce persons with whom wcro wcro con
tracting to violate their contracts, offered
to pay ono company with whom we had con
tracted for a certain right of way a sum of
money In excess of our contract price. They
mado a written' proposition ngreelng to pay
tho sum of J45.000 for tho Bast Omaha street
rnllwny connection, piovlded tho represcntn-
tlve of thnt company would vlolnto tho con
tract with us. Should this have been ob
tained It would have prevented us from
building to Omaha and thereby havo de
stroyed the possibility of nn opposition line.
After they found that tho Suburban com
pany was determined to build Its line they
insisted to the public that If that company
would keep off tho streets occupied by them
that they would let us alone, but, of course,
this was n compact wo could not mako as
tho Suburban company wns organized for
the purpose of building a street railway that
would accommodate tho public and would bo
In direct opposition to the Rrldge line nnd of
necessity required thnt wo go upon tho prin
cipal streets of tho city and nt tho samo
tlmo wo could not expect, Judging from tho
past history of the Rrldgo company, thnt it
would keep faith with us.
Wo are met trom day to day with Injunc
tions and restraining orders procured by
that company, or nt its Instigation. They
know that a street railway opposite Mr
Wright's lot on South Sixth street would be
of no greater damage than their street rail
way upon the streets they occupy, and yet
they set up the clement ot damago ns n rcn
son why un Injunction should issue, and
certainly they do not expect that It Is pns
elblo to build n street railway In the streetB
of a city without going In front of someone's
lot.
For many years tho men Interested In tho
old Manawa line endeavored to get them to
take charge of tho property. They ulwaya
Insisted thnt there wns no money In tho lako
business and that they were- opposed to ex
tensions. Vet, when someono elso happens
to tnko up tho proposition thnt they have re
fused they Immediately hecomo extremely
energetic nnd conclude to build a parallel
lino to the lake, all of which was done for
the purpose of crushing, If possible, the en
terprlso of tho new- company, Thoy thought
by advertising to tho world that thay would
parallel our llnu that It would prevent us
from getting tho necessary money with
which to build the line. Falling In such tnc
tics they attempted o buy from under us
tho contracts for right of way and necessary
properties. Falling In this, and after Town-
send, Heed St Co. have expended about $100,
attended. Tho shortness of the time since
tho regiment was discharged will make all
nnxlous to meet again, and no doubt nil of
the members for whom It Is possible will bo
present. Oencrnl Hnlo nnd (Jenernl Charles
A. King liavo been Invited to be present at
tho reunion. It is not known for certain
whether they will he able to bo present or
not, but they will no doubt endeavor to be,
as both commanded the regiment during the
Spanish war.
Tho Fiftieth regiment will hold Its en
campment ut Ottumwa. It will begin Aug
ust 8 and last eight days, nnd will bo closed
with n reunion. Thero will no doubt bo a
largo number present nt this reunion nlso,
for whllo they did not bco active service
during tho war, they saw a great deal of
camp llfo nnd hnd time to become very well
acquainted and will bo glad to tnke this op
portunlty of renowing friendship nnd recall
lng tho experience of their soldier llfo.
