"Omaha ahould make a determined effort to bring the Great Northern railway Into thla city. It la now in operation aa far south aa Sloe City, and a heroic effort would no doubt bring the road here, mak ing this the aouthern terminus. It would put Omaha in direct connection with the greatest traffic road in the country. Mr. Hill not only builds the very best railways, but he develops the trade and commerce along tbe line. He's now constructing sev eral ocean vessels for carrying tbe trade across the Pacific, and he la determined to have the oriental trade. He la far-seeing In this. He would carry the food producta of the Mississippi valley to tbe Orient and bring back tbe oriental producta to tbe northwest, tbua giving freight both waya. enabling hla road to minimize the coat of transportation. "Tbe business Interests of Omaha should take up thla question at once and push it vigorously until we ahould become the southern term'nus of that great railroad aystem. I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Mr. Hill and I caught some of the spirit of hla great Intentions. "During the last year and a half I have visited every state of tbe union and there la no other section so blessed an tbe Mis sissippi and Mlaaourl valleys. Omaha la more favorably situated than any other city In the country. There ia no reason why It should not be the greatest city.

PUZZLE TO GET ROAD TO INSTITUTION Some Lltlsratlon Will Be Keressary Before tbe Sltaatlon Will Be Satisfactorily Adjnsled. Itnt Settlement Is Kxpected. The county and city evidently got a white elephant when a contract was entered Into last spring for an emergency hospital on the river bottoms between O and P atreeta. When It became imperative that something should be done to secure secluded quarters for smallpox patients and one or two tem porary pest houses had been burned by Indignant citizens the city authorities looked about for a new location. Some land was found east of the Burlington tracks and a tract comprising fifteen acres waa rented for a term of years. The county erected a building costing 81,000 on the ground wtth the understanding that tbe city waa to maintain the institution. Then came the question of a roadway to tbe hos pital. Arrangements were made with Her man Kountze for the use of a road through hla ground and also with R. 8. Berlin of Omaha. Theae arrangements were consid ered satisfactory and are supposed to be still In force. Monday, when the first case of email pox waa called to the attention of tbe city physician, the patient was ordered to tbe Emergency hospital. J. D. Homan, the ten ant on tbe place, did not want to receive the sick man as he said he had a steady Job and would not quit to take care of one patient. Then came a clash of authority and tbe agree'ment between Homan at) 3 the city had to be brought forth to ahow that he was under bonds to perform tbe duties he agreed to do. In the end Homan took in the patient, although he did it against his will. Homan is, according to the contract, to receive B0 cents a day for each patient and aome perquisites which tbe city allows. Thla doea not seem to suit and the chances are that other arrangements will soon be made. But the most serious problem is a road to the hospital. Selger, who looks after the Kountze property on the bottoms, haa placed a lock on tbe gate across the road leading to the hospital and declines to allow anv one to ao through the ground unless paid for it. This is In direct violation of tbe contract made with Mr. Kountze and the city authorities will take the matter up at once and see that Selger takea off the i wv OD the gate J While Berlin off ered t. dedicate half of tbe roadway to tbe city the details nave 1 neTer been attended to and consequently the city la now at the mercy of Selger, who demands a fee for passing along the road to a building erected by the county and maintained by the city.

Bound copies of the city charter and tbe waa found to be among the boys. To over come thla tbe principal haa devised the following plan: For tbe September work the averages of the boys were taken and the names of all who had worekd faithfully were placed on a list that ia posted In the principal's office. Out of 250 boys In the school leas than fifty were placed on thla liat for work they had proven themselves cspabla of doing. Tbe test used waa not a comparison of intellect, but Just of honest effort in lesBons and deportment. Tbe list ia headed with tbe following verse: Here's to tha hoy who Is willing to work. And if he could, not a duty would shirk; Doing hla best at work and at play. Such a boy will do to depend on, I say. Space is left on tbe paper for the name of every boy In tbe school, these to be added to aa they deserve to be. In each room record is being kept of the compara tive averages of tha boys and girls and the Improvement among the boys is becoming ao marked that the list promises to be ma terially increased the first of November.

Articles of Incorporation of the Omaha Wholesale Produce Market company have been prepared and signed by a number of the leading commission men and gardeners, as well as by one grocer. The object of the association is to create and maintain a market plaoe where vegetables and provisions will be sold at wbolerale only. The capital atock of the corporation la 825.000, -divided Into shares of 810 each. It ia the Intention of the company to lease a tract of ground near the commission bouses, upon which will be erected a num ber of sheds, under which the gardeners may display their products, and In the course of time erect such a market bousn aa may be desired by the persons engaged In gardening for the wholesale market. The incorporators who have so far signed the articles are H. Q. Strelgbt. J. R. ISnyder, David Cole, Teter Mogls. August Packmann and George F. Munro. The three first men tioned are commission men, the next two are market gardeners and the last a retail grocer. Bald one of the men who ia pushing the enterprise: "We have made up our mlnda that we cannot afford to do tbe small re tall bUBinesa which will be forced upon us if we go to tbe Capitol avenue market, Tbe market gardenera are all busy men. We can ill spare tbe tlm how required Tor the aale of our produce and If we had to go to the retail market and stand there until he housekeepers buy our atocka wa would be compelled to hire a man in addi tion to thoae we now employ, and there ia little enough profit In the business at thla time. Ko Competition with Grocers. "The grocers naturally object to our selling goods ' to their customers at the same rate that we sell to them, and the consumers would not buy from us if we offered them goods at one price and tbe aame goods to the retail dealer at another. At the same time we can cut the price materially when we sell at wholesale and get back to tbe garden." One of tbe promotera of tbe plan baa for aome time been negotiating for the lease of a vacant lot a block from tbe present cen ter of tbe market place, and while tbe deal has not been closed. It is expected that pre liminary arrangements will be made to be gin woek on tbe necessary buildings In time to have them completed before tbe spring trade begins. It ta expected that the ma jority of the stork In be company will be purchased by produce men and market gardeners, while aome of tbe property own era In tbe commission district are expected to take a number of shares if necessary. The retail grocers are not aa a rule taking any part In tbe plan, and while some of them will no doubt take a few sharea of atock, it la believed that tbe corporation will be controlled by the commission men and gardeners.

As show ing the estimation in which this remedy is held by ths public tt may Interest Ihi reader to know that ita aales now exceed those of all other pile remedies coniMaed. 1,
