Davldaoa af liman "chool.
"Come Let L' LIv With the Children"
was the keynote of an address given by
Superintendent W. H. Davidson of the
Omaha schools before the students of tha
Bummer school at tha state university In
Memorial hall this morning. He pleaded for
a closer relationship between teacher and
student. "Sympathy and love for one an
other must be begun In the kindergarten
and be retained through the grade schools,
the high schools and the universities If the
utmost good Is to be gotten from our school
system," declared Superintendent Davidson.
Motloa to Remand Railroad Case.
Attorney General Thompson thla morning
filed his motion In the federal court to have
the case brought by Mm to compel the rail
roads t oobey the laws enscted by the re
cent legislature remanded back to the state
courts. This Is the case where the attorney
general filed a petition In the supreme court
for an Injunction and the railroads made
application to have the case transferred to
the federal court. The application probably
will bo argued within a few days. The at
torney general Is preparln ga brief on his
motion to have the case sent back to tha
state courts.
More Money for Normals.-
Senator Jesse L. Root of Cas scounty,
who has been speaking at one of the Junior
normal schools on educational subjects, has
written to Superintendent McBrlen saying
J that the appropriation for the Junior norm
als should have been greater and that the
Doran bill for aid to weak districts should
be extended rather than diminished. Sen
ator Root was the stad of the finance com
mittee of the senate, and aa such he had
to do most of the cutting on appropriations
to keep the state from becoming mortgaged
and he came very near taking a whack at
the $50,000 appropriation for the aid ot weak
districts.
Capital Briefs.
Superintendent McBrlen haa returned
from vlsitln gthe Junior normals at Broken
Bow and Alliance and he reported that both
schools were doing good work. 8he Junior
normal has been established at Alliance for
five years and Mr. McBrlen said th prog
ress there was wonderful. 1
The State Dairy Commission Is anxious
for the shippers of cream to bear ll
mind that a public hearing will be held
here August 8 on the application of the
Western Traffic association for an Increase
In rates on cream,, This association claims
low rates on cream has decreased the num
ber of small creameries in the state and
has resulted in a concentration of . this
business In the cities. The commission
wants shipper of cream to 'be here on
that day to answer the argument of the
frelgbt men.
City Attorney Stewart ha made appli
cation to the State Railway commission to
appoint an accountant to go through the
books and records of the Lincoln Trac
tion company, the evidence found to be
used In the case wherein the city has made
application to have the commission force
the traction company to sell six fares for
twenty-five cents, as provided for In the
city ordinance. C. 8. Allen, attorney for
the traction company, and Mr. Stewart
will get together on an accountant and
recommend r him to the commission and
he will be appointed. This will save the
traction company from bringing In Its
books to the commission.
Poultry Mea Complain.
Complaint was filed with the 8tata Rail
way commission today by J. C. Baeachlln,
a poultry dealer of Aurora, Neb., against
the St. Joseph St Grand Island railroad.

In favor of the Swift and Armour pack

NORTH PLATTE Now that the fran
chise for the water works company has
been voted down, the question of municipal
ownership Is being agitated. At the re
cent meeting of tha city council, tha mayor
suggested that a committee of business
men be appointed to confer with the coun
cil for li. e purpose of ascertaining th
true value of the water works plant and
that an amicable settlement of the existing
difficulties may be had. Under th pres
ent condition of affairs It seems that tha
water works company must either com
mence to sell to the city at reasonable
hguree or else ths city will start an en
tirely new and independent plant and
system.

and diversity of its products from the Mississippi to the foothills. The projected route will be the logical
freight and passenger channel for this wealthy territory for upwards of ten miles on both sides of tho
line, which will be 159y2 miles in length. Its trains will be laden with the immense out freight which is
produced in this region, and the thousands of tons of freight, for which it is exchanged. In addition to
. tne freight an immense passenger traffic will be drawn from the tens of thousands who live in close prox
imity to the route. Wouldn't you like a share in the dividends which such an earning possibility presents? Increasing divi
dends are as sure- as the state of Nebraska are inevitable.
A moment's study of the map noticing the many feeders the electrio road will have in tho way of steam roads branch
ing out in various directions from Hastings, Aurora, David City, Wahoo and Omaha., will convince you that the entire pop
ulation of Adams, Hall, Hamilton, York, Polk, Butler, Saunders and Douglas counties will have easy access to the interurban.
You know the population of-these counties is something like 300,000.
Notice the freight proposition, llie road will easily serve a territory of five miles on either side of the line making a
territory ten miles in width and 159 miles' jn length, or a territory of 1,017,600 acres. In 1906 this territory produced over
40,000,000 bushels of grain. Raised over 40,000 hogs, and over 20,000 cattle, to say nothing of the horses, sheep and poultry

This Os Elo
Speculation
Electric railroading is the coming system. They have
been tested and tried; over 30,000 miles are in operation and
paying from 10 to 20 per cent dividends. Over 300,000 peo
ple live in easy reach of this line. In 1906 there was raised
within five miles of this line, between Omaha and Hast
ings over 40,000,000 bushels of grain, over 40,000 hogs, over
20,000 cattle, to say nothing of the horses, sheep, poultry, al
falfa and fruit. Over 80,000 tons of freight was shipped into
this territory. Don't you realize what thia means in the way
of Dividends?
