COAL PILES MOUNTAIN HIGH
Union Pacific Prepares for Possible
Fuel Famine.
HALF A MILLION TONS STOKED
General Manager Mahler Sara HI
Line Will Be Kept Running- Dar
in the Winter In Spite
of Shortage.
"The Union Faclflo now has 212.000 tons
of coal stored, most of which came from
the mines of Illinois, Missouri, Kansas and
Colorado, and only part of the Wyoming
division Is supplied by our mines," said
General Manager Mohler of the Union Pa
cific Friday morning.
That the Union Pacific Is following out
the Idea conveyed by General Superin
tendent Park In an Interview In The Bee
some weoks ago Is evidenced by the large
supply of coal which that road Is storing.
A large force of workmen has been put
to work In the Cheyenne yards, handling
storage coal, and within the next few
weeks no less than 60,000 tons of coal
will be stored at that point. There Is now
at the Cheyenne yards 20,000 tons' and
40.000 additional Is expected from Hanna
and Trinidad, Colo. Over 276 cars of Illi
nois coal have already arrived at North
Platte, and there are 200 yet to come. It
Is estimated that not less than 600,000 tons
will be stored along the Union Pacific be
fore fall, so that when the oriels comes
this winter, as railroad men assert it Is
sure to come, the company will be In a
position to keep Its trains moving without
making extraordinary demands on the
mines.
West Wants Coal.
"The tremendous demand for coal by
the country west of tfreen River, dependent
upon th Union Paclno mines for Its sup
ply, makes the movement of coal to points
east of Green River, to any large extent,
absolutely Impossible," added Mr. Mohler.
Therefore, we have been urging that Ne
braska dealers obtain coal from eastern
mines, the same as we do, to Insure their
supply.
"We are granting a number of requests
to outsiders for tracks to ' coal mines In
Wyoming and Colorado, but such work Is
low, and represents a large amount of
money and time before its effects will be
felt Money In this respect has heretofore
1 been spent In Wyoming, and the lands
4 found coalless and the projects abandoned.
Naturally there are always some gentle
' men who think they could satisfy all in
terests, both state and Interstate, and we
would be glad to have suggestions, as the
outlook to us at present is most serious.
The questions Involved will be prospective
strikes aud a great scarcity of coal miners,
which will make a decline In the coal
supply, as the mines have not for a
number of months, and will not now, be
worked to full capacity. The country has
been raked for more men, with hardly any
noticeable success."
FAIRBANKS-MORSE WILL BUILD
Another Bid Warehouse Deetded On
for the New Omaha Jos
bins; District.
AH doubt as to the erection of a large
home by Fairbanks, Morse & Co., has been
dispelled by the announcement of Fisher
& Lawrle, that they have been Instructed
from the company's home office at Chicago
to proceed with the plans. Mr. Lawrle
returned from Chicago this week with in
structions to get out the plans and invite
bids with all possible dispatch.
The building will be six stories In height,
stxty-slx feet in width by 132 feet In
length, and will cost approximately $70,000,
says Mr. Lawrle. It will be at the north
west corner of Ninth and Harney, with
Union Pacific trackage on the east and
Burlington trackage on the north. It will
be built of vitrified paving brick of dark
blue color; the tone of the brick and plain
ness of detail being calculated to lend dis
tinction among the other large structures
of the neighborhood. A peculiarity will be
in the floor, which for strength will be
made of planks laid on edge and spiked
agalnBt each other, the whole covered with
maple flooring, laid in the ordinary way.
Plans will be completed as rapidly as
possible and it is expected to ask for bids
within a few weeks. The company needs
tho building very much, as at present Its
building on Farnam street Is full and it
has goods stored in several small ware
houses about the city.
HARD STONE IS COMING UP
Contractors for Macadam Aerreo to
Furnish No More Poor Material
to tho County.
As & Qtyult of their trip to the Nehawka
quarries Thursday the members of the
county board have secured a promise that
no more soft stone will be sent to Omaha
for use on the county roads that are being
macadamized. The commissioners were
well pleased with the quality of rock in
general at the quarries, but found some
ledges in which the material la of a poor
grade. It was from these that the un
satisfactory rock which caused the Inveal
gatloh was taken. The proprietors of the
quarry assured them it was entirely acci
dental that the poor grade material was
sent to Omaha and promised to see that
only the beat grade was hereafter quarried
for the road contractors.
The party consisted of the members of
the board. County Engineer Beat, Contrac
tors Craig and Van Court and the proprie
tors of the quarries.

DOES ROTATION BALLOT GO?
Maguey Says That Section of Law is
Not Changed.
PRIMARY ELECTION'S NEW PHASE
Deputy County Attorney Reverses
nim.elf, but Deputy County
Clerk Says Secretary of
State Decides.
Deputy County Attorney Magney has re
versed his opinion given several weeks ago
In relation to the ballot, and now is of the
belief that the rotated ballot will have to
be used In Douglas county at this fall's
primary. In his first opinion he held the
section. of the law requiring the use Ot the
rotation ballot in Douglas county had been
repealed by the new primary law, but sub
sequent investigation has oonvlnced him
that it was not affected by the new enact
ment "When I gave my opinion to County
Auditor Smith," says Mr. Magney now,
"I had referred to copies of the law pub
lished In the newspapers. From these I
was of the opinion that Section 6811 of Cob-
bey's Annotated Statutes was repealed In
Its entlrty. The rotation ballot is provided
for Is subsection 1 of section 6811. Since
examining the pamphlet copy of the law
I find that only subsections a to h of seotlon
6811 were repealed by the new law, leaving
subsection 1 Intact and In full force. Hence
I am now of the opinion the rotation ballot
will have to be used In this county this
fall."
Dewey Has Another View.
Deputy County Clerk Dewey discussing
the use of the rotated ballot declared the
question was up to the secretary of state.
"The secretary of state prepares an of
ficial ballot for us, and we will use what
ever he prepares for us. This office has
nothing to say about that, as the duty of
making the form Is placed on the stato
officer. We are not worrying much about
it in this office,"
A new point that may complicate the
situation has been pointed out. The general
election law provides ballots for state of
ficers shall be uniform throughout the state.
If Douglas county has a rotated ballot for
district judge, it is argued, and Washing
ton county has not, will it not be a viola,
tlon of the law requiring uniformity, both
counties being in the same district? Deputy
County Clerk Dewey baa raised this ques
tion and Mr. Magney admitted it might be
serious one. He declined to express any
opinion on It, however, until he had looked
It up.

garmenta a woman can own. To those
who expect to Include camping, fishing,

For use on occasions where the corset is

or other exercise, where absolutely free

sweater is Ideal. There are Just two things
to be kept In mind when buying or making
the garment. It must be an easy fit and of
a color that will bear washing.
