ting; expenses. .Evert road dolg business
In the state shows a iarge Increase In the
coat of operation, and. a corresponding de
crease' in the number of men employed.
A good portion of the time of the board has
been spent In trying to find out iumi what
constitutes operating expenses. Bo far,
however, none of the .board ; member has
been able to secure' information which
would settle definitely what Items each
road has charged An- to operating expenses.
At a meeting of trie board (ills morning
representative of the Missouri Pacific,
Cnarlf-s Waldrlc,h,' appeared; to protest
against the assessment of 'that road. Mr.
AValdrlch could not explain , why it cost
more to operate hi ,road than it does the
Bt. Joseph & Grand Island, but the figures,
he said, showed It did. . Only a portion of
the expense for rMmtfdln bridges. and put-,
ting In rw steel,1 he said, Was charged to
operation and . that no. Juggling of figures
mia hairi henn mmtf. tnr the reason the
books and accounts of ,hlroad wera cotf
tanttly under tlie. supervision of a repre
sentative -of the' Interstate Cbmmerco com
mission. The board will make no change
in the assessment of -the Missouri Pacific,
though the members discussed' the matter
with Mr. Wlldrleh all morning. The follow

A number of the member' of the execu
tive committee of the Nebraska Employs'
Protective association from outalde points.
Including 8. C. Mecomber of North Platte,
F. H. Crosby and F. M. Ryan of Lincoln
and C. X. Hopkins of Sioux City, la., were
present on this occasion and made speeches
and assisted in the plan pf organizing the
auxiliary. Nat Downs and C. A. Wilklns,
members of the executive committee at
Falrbury, were also present and assisted
in the organisation. Quite a number of
lively speeches were made by different rail
road employes at this place.
J. C. Hartlgan, a representative of the
Falrbyry Commercial club, was present and
expressed his views on the situation and
stated that-he was heartily in accord with
tha movement of the employe and wished
them godspeed In their efforts to gain Jus
tice before the State Railway commission
and eliminate adverse railroad legislation.
He expressed a great deal of astonishment
at the fact that the railroad employes had
deferred a movement of this kind so long;
that they should have started a number of
years ago. He also, admitted that the Ne
braska Employes' Protective association
would have great power and force for "bet
ter or for worse," as the case 'might be,
and admonished the members to use con
servatism and Judgment in their, motives..
D. B. Cropaey, an ex-member of the Ne
braska legislature, was also present at the
meetlr and was called upon, and he made
a short and humorous talk. He made the
assertion that the farmers, who receive $fcuu
and $1.0fl0 for a carload of fat hogs, do not
pay very much attention to rates; that. 'as
a general thing, they are more anxious to
gain quick service than economical - rates.
He even asserted that no one was anxious
to secure a reduction In rates, except the
politicians who desire to ride into office on
this score.
