10 THE OMAHA DAILY HKK: TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1908. RAILWAY MEN BUSY AS BEES Orptnizlnj Their Protective Aisocia tioa Throughout State. PLAN ONE TO EVERT DIVISION M. J. Wllaaa, mm OftMlwr, They Are After the Political Agi tator Desnastdlosj All Rate Cat. Within a few weeks there wilt be a "local" organisation of the Nebraska FUil road Employe association In every divis ion point on' all linn ot railroad In Ne braska. Five meetings scheduled to be, held within the next ten day, which will be at tended by memberi of the executive com mittee and local organisation will remit from each meeting. The polnta where these meeting Will be held are Flattamouth, Nor folk, Auburn, Chadron and Columbua. At Mattsmouth the meeting- will be held Wednesday and will be attended by H railroad men rt the Burlington and Missouri Pacific llnea. The date for the Auburn meeting haa not been aet. It will be at tended by Mlaaourl Faciflo employes. At Norfolk the meeting will be attended by employee of the Omaha road aa well ia the Northwestern and I'nlon Pacific em ploye!: whl e at Columbus the Union Pacific employes promise , a big meeting and at Chadron all the Northweatern employes of the Black Hills country will gather to or ganise a local." All Re4y to Jola. M. J. Wilson, one of the organliers of the executive committee, returned Monday from a trip over the Burlington lines from Ash land to Sioux City, and from Sloux City to O'Neill. Before leaving for Flattsmouth Mr. Wllaon aald: "I did not met an employe from the time I left Ashland until I re turned to Omaha who did not Join the as sociation as soon aa he understood the fun damental principles of the organization. Re ceived In this way it will not be long until the organisation Includes In Its ranks every railroad man In the state of Nebraska." Attempts of the Hearst syndicate to moke political capital out of, the Nebraska or ganization are resented at the headquarters In Omaha, "We don't want to be misrep resented as some political writers are mis representing us," said Chairman F. M. Ryan. "We don't want to appear either with nor against Mr. Gompers. We don't care what he thinks about the situation or the republican and democratic plat forms and. we don't care what he says about them. The thing we are looking out for ia to put these engines and men back to work in the state of Nebraska. There are 17 per cent of the engines on the Bur lington road Idle and there are thousands of worklngmen idle as a result. After the Agitators. "We are after the political agitators who are advocating blanket or general re duction of railroad rates to get public of fice for themselves and transfer the amount taken from the corporate railroads to th corporate mercantile houses In the big cities without benefiting the consumers a single rent." Regardless of the statements of executive f fleers of the association, the "Nebraska railroad employe's Idea" is becoming a xntlonal Idea. Hundreds of letters are pouring Into the office of Chairman Ryan it the Hotel Rome, asking for literature and the plan of the Nebraska railroad employes who propose to oppose any can didate for the legislature or for state railroad commissioners who advocate gen eral reductions in railroad rates in order to "make good" with the voters. Requests were received Monday from South Dakota and Mlnneaota, and the Nebraskans have already distributed 10,000 copies of a ten page booklet telling ot their plan and clos ing with this thought: "Until conditions become normal it Is absolutely necessary for railroad men, with out reference to organization, class of service or political affiliations, to stand united in opposition to these policies that tend to diminish their wages or add addi tion burdens to their dally taak. The yoke must be kept from our shoulders by united and continuous effort." LOCAL BANKERSF0R GOTHAM 'J man a Financiers Bar New York Does Not Need Larger Cash Reserve. Bankers of Omaha will defend New York In the debate at the sixth annual meeting of the American Institute of Bankers to be held 111 Providence, R. I., the last of the week. In the event any of them find time to attend the meeting. Plans are being made for a big debate on the question: "Reaolved, That all bank Ing Institutions of New Tork City be re quired to keep a large cash reserve." It has .been frequently suggested that If a larger cash reserve had been on hand last fall the financial flurry of that period could have been averted. Don't need larger reserves In New Tork City now, nor did the banks need them last winter," said J. M. Millard, president of the Omaha National bank. I believe the reports 1 the other dav showed the banka of New Ybrk had on the average of something like 38 per cent re serve cash., The trouble is that they ar geiung reserves ico large. They are so large now they make money cheap. 'As for last winter, it seems that the legal reserve Is large enough to carry even jn new lorn ana i aon i relieve the re serves are too small or have been." Money Is cheaper In New York than for many years. Demand loans can be cured for SH to per cent, which to the bankers spells "stagnation." In Omaha the money market la down. Many loans are being negotiated at i per cent, the lowest rate for six years. DERM0DY BUYS C. C. RANCH iMwanm Company Takes Bin- Range Once Owned by the Fresrk radicate. Tne W. J.

BALLOON TESTS ARE DELAYED Necessary Deliberation In Krectlon of Ilant Psli Off Dates of Experiments. From present indications it looks as If the balloon experiments at Fort Omaha will not be undertaken before late in the fall or early next spring. The big balloon house is not yet finished and there yet re main some additional installations of ma chinery for the hydrogen gas plant. The work is belnig ptished forward as rapidly as possible, but there is much that cannot be done hurriedly. Captain C. F. Chandler will have charge of the work of the Installation of the plant and will also superintend the prac tical ballooning experiments. It is ex pected that Lieutenant F. C. Lahm, the winner of the balloon race in England, in 10O6, will participate In the Omaha experi ments. The technical Instruction In bal looning will be given at the Fort Leaven worth training school and war college. The balloon practice work at Fort Myer, Va., haa been discontinued owing tt the difficulty in procuring gas for inflation, and, for this reason, the work of finishing the balloon plants at Fort Omaha will be TOTS HAVE WILD WEST SHOW Children of Wealthy West End Fami lies Organize One.
