SAYS CITY MAKES BIO STRIDES Edgar Allen is. New Commercial Club President Asserts that Conditions Throogkeut the State and Territory Are Ex - ceptlonally Healthy. In All Maes. Frozen Within Thirty Feet of Fire Sheep Herder in Wyoming Suffer This Fate During: the Ee . cent Storm. Frank ' Peters, ' representative of the llimm Brewing company, has returned from Shoshonlj Wyo., where he was snow bound for eight days. Mr. Peters says the loss to sheep owners will be quits heavy in that section of Wyoming because of the Inability of the railroads to get food through the snowbound line. He said he saw many ' wa-on loads of pelts brought to town from sheep frosen to death. Two sheep herders also froae to death near Lost Cabin, one within thirty feet c his sheep wagon, where there was a good fire.' This man had both lees and hands frosen, but after be was found there was no train along for three days which could take him to a doctor and he died before assistance could be rendered. Supplies of provisions were running- short In many of thd towns along the North western before the trains wer finally put through. Dun's Review gives. Omaha a good boost for Its commercial progress In 1909. Under the caption "Oreat Activity During 1909" it says: Generally, characterised, the year of 1909 has been, marked by splendid progress and growth iii Omaha and conditions throughout the state and territory Imme diately tributary to this city appear to be In an exceptionally healthy condition. "Jobbers, manufacturers and the meat packing- industries report a heavier ton nage of business than for any previous year. They have also had the advantage of an advancing market and good profits have usually ben realised. . "There have been several Important ac cessions In the way ot new wholesale houses and the successful Installation of a modern 2,000-barrel flour mill. The manufacturing suburb, Ralston, has a car repair plant and an automobile factory In process of building. "In the way of new building, all previous records ' hsve been broken. Permits (De cember only partially Included) number 1.&85 for a total cost of 17,200,000, this figure exceeding that of the largest previous year (18S7) by over 11,000, 000.. The new buildings Include a $1,000,000 court house, a sixteen story bank and office building, to cost In i excess of 1700 000, and a theater represent ing- an outlay of nearly 1600,000. "The city has maintained Its position among the great primary grain markets ot the country, total receipts for the year ex ceeding 40,000.000 bushels, in corn alone re ceipts were over 21.d00.000 bushels, this fig ure being exceeded by Chicago only.

The mayor of Schuyler was In the city and had a picture of Russell, or Johnson, taken when that youth was working in a tailor shop in Schuyler.

Quiet pilgrimages made eastward by prominent officials of the Harrlman lines in the west are believed to have an Impor tant bearing on the proposed dissolution of the so-called Union Pacific-Southern Pacific merger, rtow being considered by President Taft and Attorney General Wlckersham. Three officials of the Southern Pacific from San Francisco, passed through Omaha Thursday enroute to Chicago and four rep resentatives of the Union Pacific In the Omaha offices have already answered the call to the eoBt. C. B. Scger ot Omaha, general auditor of the Harrlman lines, will be In Chicago Saturday In conference with Julius Krutschnltt, director of maintenance, and J. C. Stubbs, director of traffic of the Har rlman system. From Chicago Mr. Seger will proceed to New York, where he will see Judge Robert L. Lovett, president of the Union Pacific railroad. A. L. Mohler, vice president and general manager of the Union Pacific railroad, will go east Saturday night to confer with He.rrlman officials. W. L.

"The exact f ature ot my business :n the east I am unable to discuss at this time," said Mr. Seger, the general auditor. "This will be my first trip east since my appointment as auditor of the Harrlman roads and It will be my first conference with President Lovett as an officer of the entire system. "There may be a meeting of the pension board and a selection of a chairman to sue-' cecd Erastus Young of Omaha, the retiring general auditor and head of the pension board. I have not been Informed of such a meeting, however. The matter of le movlng the general auditor's offices to Chicago will also be considered and defi nite action taken. I shall return to Omaha late next week." Although official announcement has not been made it is stated on good authority that Mr. Seger and his offlce'staff will re move to Chicago May 1, where the general auditing department will be maintained. "Mr. Loomis, our general solicitor, prob ably will be kept In the east for a month or so," said Edson Rich, general attorney for the Union Paclflo. "The propos tion now before president Taft and Attorney General Wlckersham will receive the at tention of Judge Lovett and Mr. Loomis. We know nothing of the proposed dissolu tion except what we read In the pres dispatches."

Joslyn is a subject of much talk fol lowing the deolslon in district court that Clinton Joy Sutphen began his suit against Joslyn, at too late a date after reaching his majority. Slnoe It was on this ground alone that Judges Troup, Estelle and Bears decided against Mr. Joslyn the case of Earl Sutphen, now a youth of 17 years, is considered strong. One of tho Judges who heard the case re marked the day after the decision with re gard to Earl Sutphen: ' "That boy's In the saddle."'
