12 TIIE OMATTA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, AUGUST S, 1P07. RAILROADS PULL OFF COUP Tetitic-n State Commission for Higher Express Creamery Bate. FARMERS INDUCED TO SIGN UP Borllnsrtna TtkM Lend la F1kt te Array "mall Dalrymea Against Lrr oa Esprees Cau( Matter. Nebraska la BfTordlTif to the world the unique ereotacln ot a people petitioning; Us government to allow It to pay higher rates for the transportation of one of IU chief commodities Ail thla despite the fact that tha laat legislature reduced rates to satisfy a great public clamor. It la said many signatures have been secured to petition! asking tha State Railway commission to al low tha express companies to put In effect a advance of 6s per cent In rates on cream. Tha railroads themselves are said to have cured the great majority of tha signa tures. To each Burlington agent la Ne braska two copies of the following were aent from the office of 1 W. Wakeley, gen eral passonger agent of the Burlington: To the fltat Railway Commission: The undersigned cltlrons of the slate, deeply Interested In the welfare of home In dustries, petition your honorable body to five us and the people of the state rellnf rum the discriminating rates on cream which the larger and centralised creamerlea enjoy ami ask that the railroads be allowed to put In the rates which are proposed, the present rates being a menace to tho very existence of the few local creameries that are left. lnstrnrtlins to Areata. With th petitions went these Instruc tion to the agent: To the Agent: I send you herewith two copies of a petition to the Nebraska State Railway commission, which you should at once arrange to have circulated for signa tures In your town. Influential business men will undoubtedly co-operate with you. Secure a strong lint of signatures. Includ ing those of the business men, cream pro ducers and farmers and send the petition to me not later than Saturday, July 27. It la aald by the local creamery Interests that many business men and farmers, their patriotism appealed to by the words "home Industries" and "discriminating rates," blindly signed these petitions without in quiring Into tha "rates which are pro posed." , Coincident with tha circulation of the rail road petitions, the Schuyler Creamery com pany was sending out circulars to the small creameries of the state asking them to petition the commission in terms similar to those suggested by the railroads. The company's aim was to array the smallef creameries, situated at Ravenna, Ord, Loup City, Columbus, Fremont and other of the smaller towns against the so-called "cen tralised" creamerlea, situated at Omaha and Lincoln, the allegation being that tha centralized creameries enjoyed discrimina tory rates. Scant Reenlt from Petition. "What the relations of the Schuyler Creamery company are to tho railroads, I cannot say," remarked an Omaha creamery man Friday. "If I knew I could then ex plain that company's -attitude. What I do know Is that It's petition to the other creamerlea brought scant results. No creamery manager in a Nebraska town needs glasses to see that a 66 per cent in crease in rates all over the state will keep his town and Omaha In the same relative position that now obtains. And we have the railroads' own figures to show that very creamery In the state enjoys the same special distance tariff that the Omaha and Lincoln creameries have. The Ravenna Creamery company, which has three plants at Ravenna, Ord and Loup City, is with us; Golden Rod Creamery of Fremont is with as, and I. E. Cahoon of Fontanelle is with us. And I understand that others have re fused to sign the petition sent out by the Schuyler people. Some concerns which have signed are nothing more than butter and poultry buyers and have nothing what ever to do with cream rates. "How the farmers were Induced to sign the railroad petitions, I cannot understand. It will be the farmer who will pay the freight." As showing the unfairness of the state ment that Omaha and Lincoln are enjoying discriminating rates. J. H. Rushton of the Fairmont Creamery company says: "I am dead against the proposed schedule of the express companies, and yet the bulk of my company's business is done neither at Omaha nor Lincoln. Our company's two biggest producing factories are at Crete and Fairmont." 1 w 100 Arci.e WOMEN'S ELBOW LENGTH SILK GLOVES.

"If the ctty council will show how streets may be paved without obstructing them I will be inclined to aat on the resolution that I remove obstructions from Famam street," said City Engineer Rosewater Fri day rooming. "The fact Is, there is no way In which this work can be done and the street left free for traffic. Of course the paving contractors are expected to push work when they tear up a street and should not get Into a place where they are compelled to delay traffic while waiting for material, but this cannot always be avoided. "If the council desires it can declare a contract forfeited, but this Is the only way I know In which they can stop the work when it is started. Famam street is being paved as rapidly as possible now and the company is no doubt as anxious as the city to get the work done."
