With most profound regards, I have the honor to remain, Cordially yours, NORRIS BROWN. Why the Difference f YORK, Neb., Sept. 5. To the Editor of The Bee: I have before me a bulletin of the Burlington route, Lake Shore & Mich igan Southern railway, giving rat?s to the Grand Army of the Republic national en campment at Atlantic City, N. J.. Septem ber 19 to 24, 1910. From York to Atlantic ritv and return for summer tourists the fare is $45.50, tickets good to return to the original starting point within thirty aays. The fare over the same route for the Grand Army boya and their friends Is $48.40, a dif ference In favor of the summer tourist of $2.90. Now, the query Is. has the ordinary citizen or the man who la able to take these summer outings done more for the country and these railroad companies than the old soldier and his friends, that these differ ences are made? Not only la the tourist given the cut of $2.90 In the rates, but his ticket Is good for thirty days, while the Grand Army man's is only good at the longest from September 13 to 29, unless he validates Iiih ticket by paying $1 extra at Atlantic City, which will extend his time to October 28. Now, Mr. Editor, wherein do the rail road companies show JuBtloe to the men who made It possible for them to run their lines all over this country, and especially In the west? For myself, on behalf of thousands of my old comrades, I protest, and were I commander of this department of the Grand Army of the Republic, I would Issue an order the sume as did the depart ment commander of Kentucky, for every Grand Army man to stay at home, where I expect to stay, with hundreds of others who had planned on going, expecting It to be the last time they would ever make the trip back to their old homes In the east. Respectfully submitted for the con sideration of the people of this republic. M. L PEMBLETON. (Mr. Pembleton'a communication was called to tha attention of the Burlington passenger department and an explanation asked. It was said that the summer tourist rales are open to members of the Grand Army of Cue Republic. The reason for the difference In rates is that the Grand Army rate permits certain stopover privileges that are denied on the summer tourist tick ets.) Epidemic of Thefts at Aberdeen. ABERDEEN, S. D., Sept. 6 (Special.) The annual crop of yeggmcn, which ap pears with the threshing season In the Dakotas, Is In evidence In Aberdeen. The murder of an unknown thresher hand on Saturday night was followed by a' holdup, a burglary and a theft on Sunday night. H. Mano, a stranger, who arrived from the west Saturday night, was held up Sun day night and robbed of $11 In money and a watch. The same night, C. P. Owen of Council Bluffs, la., while asleep In a lodg ing hounn, was relieved of $ii. his watch snd pneketbook In the room. Also on Sun day night, the drug store of H. F.
