Immense amount of export grain which
is In the elevators at Buffalo and which
Is now trying to got to London, where
there is a demand for it. While there Is
now somewhat of a car shortage in the
west It Is temporarily relieved by the can
cellation of orders for cars for shipping
grain.
Operators on Bagular System Bonuses
given operators who remained at work for
the Western Union company throughout
the ""recent strike are now abolished and
the pay schedule Is on the same basis as
before the Inauguration of the strike.
Notice of this was given a few weeks ago,
the time of Its going Into effect being No
vember 1. Operators at work will still
make considerable extra money, however,
from working overtime as the force of men
Is not yet equal to the demand.

A fine Holsteln cow that had escaped
from her owner's lot was recently roam
ing the streets of Nashville when she was
roped In by the pound officer. This offi
cial action evoked a moving appeal from
the owner, who addressed the chief of
police In this wise:
"Chief Blank: Dear Friend Your po"n1
man has hauled my cow Into court this
morning for prowling. As It was her fn si
offense, please have her let off with as
light a fine as posklole. Yours, ."
Across the face of this letter the chief
scribbled the following instruction to the
pound man: ,

Has he employed any great number of

He told the people repeatedly that If

there would be erected a commodious, up-to-date

I have sold all of my property interests
In South Omaha It Is an easy matter for
me to tell the property owners how they
are going to be benefited by consolida
tion. Now let us see if this statement Is true.
In July of this year my brother and my
self sold our coal, feed and real estate
business to James Garliw, who In turn
sold the same to N. D. Mann A Sons.
In the transaction, however, very little
real estate wu taken into consideration,
namely, our holdings on which our coal
yards were situated. Mr. Garlow pur
chased the same from us for the sum of
$10,000; none of our other holdings wore

I was at that time and, as I have not
disposed of any property since, am now
the owner of lota and land In five warUs j
of the city and have one parcel of track i
age situated st Twenty-nlntn and '
streets that I had under contract for ale
to a large Industry, but thanks to our
city council and through the influence of
one of our prominent bankers, the my
has been deprived of one more Industry,
and incidentally I fulled to make a su'o
of tli.OuO worth of my properly.
I will further invite the clever doctor
to consult with T. li. Gustafson, who is
engagea in buying up property for v.''
and who has succededl la takl. over tttl-
to mo of almost the entire block of
ground situated between A and II streets
and Twenty-eighth and Twenty-nlnlh
streets In South Omaha, and it Is try 1
intention to put this property In shape !
immediately fur manufactui ing purposes. !
The Burlington railroad has already laid
sidetracks connecting up the same with
their man line. '
Now, who is this doctor that assumes '
to know so much about other peoples'
affairs? I understand he has his trunk
