MOVING FROM OLD STRUCTURE Some Have Already thanared Ufa fives and Others Expect to Move by End of the Cowing- Week. Vnless the plans miscarry Union Pa cific officials and clerks will act as hosts to all , of Omaha and the surrounding country January 1, 1912. As outlined at this time the plan Is to throw the new Union Pacifio headquarters open to the public on New Year's day and hold a re ception, or house warming. By January 1 next the new building will be fully completed and all of the officials will be settled and ready to receive vis itors. These officials feel that Omaha people and those of ths surrounding country should be given an opportunity of inspecting the twetVe-btory building from top. to basement,, and are of the opinion that New Year's day Is the mobt appropriate and opportune time. Tha new Union Pr;flq headquarters building la rapidly naarlng completloSi, and during the coming week a number of the departments will move in, abandon ing tbe old building at Ninth and Farnam streets. Even at this time the freight auditor, the general pasnenger agent and the auditor of passenger accounts have partially completed packing their books, papers and documents and are prepared to move on a day's notice. These do part monts probably will be the first to move. In the new building the department heads occupy relatively the same posi tions as in the old. In the old building, with the exception of President Mohler and the general passenger agent, the department heads had their offices in the southwest corner, and in relocating the old plan has been adopted in the new structure.

OMAHA, SUNDAY MOKNIXU, AT LAST BOULEVARD JONDS URGED Park Commissioners Out with State meat to the Public HOW MONEY IS TO BE SPENT Contend that Without Additional Funds Proposed City Itoad Sys tem Cannot He Bettered or Maintained. The Omaha Board cf Park commission ers has Issued a statement in regard to tho proposed park bonds In the amount of $50,000 and urge the voters to endorse the bonds at the polls next Tuesday. The statement of tho hoard follows: OMAHA, Neb.. Nov. 4.-To the Kdltor of The Omaha Hee: The Board of Park commissioners bus asked the voteis to authorize an l.-sue of bonds to the amount of $00,000 to be used for t'.te improvement of tho boulevard system. By way of explanation, the boulevards of Omaha have no regular support outside of the road fund which comes from Doug las county. Since that road fund was inaugurated In 1S3A, the average annual sum from that source has been about $20,000. It can readily be Been that with tbls sum alone the maintenance of the system would absorb , tho major portion, while little would be left for macadamls tn or otherwise improving old boulevards or for grading pw ones. Ths charter pro vides that bonds may be Issued for this purpose, and bt this' means . macadamis ing can be done to great advantage anC new boulevards b graded and improved. We wish to slats to ths public what is contemplated In the way of . Improve ments, but first want you to know what sued in 1910, The necessary grading was sued In 1 S0. The necessary graded was completed and spans of macadam and curbing wero put In where most needed. It Is to complete these unpaved portions that we are desirous of the bonds now asked for. For the nine months ended the follow ing has. been expended in grading, paving and curbing: Florence boulevard. $11,- (W.86; West Central boulevard, $11,M3.B8.; South Central boiltevard, $12,6.12.20; North west boulevard, $14,340.10; Southeast boul evard, $S,C0J,78. From the bonds which it is urged that Omaha authorize next Tuesday, It will be possible to complete the macadam on Florence boulevard, extend the paving on Southeast boulevard toward Rlvervlew park, and macadam south of Hanacom park, where now there Is the oiled dirt road; connect the paving on West Cen tral boulevard and grade the new boule vard from lJcmls to Fontanelle park. Although the park board parses out Of office with tho coming of tho new com mission form of Rovernment next spring, we all sco the necessity of this bond Issue that tho work of perfecting Omaha's boulevard system be carried toward com pletion. Without tho bonds, the funds available w(U scarcely maintain the boulevards In a possablo condition, and with the exces sive wear the maintenance of cinder and oiled dirt roods Is very expensive and unsatisfactory. For that reu.son It is de sirable to put In permnnent paving, and to do this It is impossible under our laws wlUiout the bonds. Ho we ask the public spirited citizens to take an interest In this proposition of such largo Importance to the entire city. ROM B MILLER, J. L. NKItLKt 13. J. CORNISH. W. It. WATSON, T. It. MLLLKN.

The resolution adopted which provides for the drafting of the propoaed bill makes the following tclarutlons: "There exists a necessity for ascertain lng the true economic value of industria combinations to determine whether the Khtrmau. anti-trust la, enaated twenty years ago, is still an economically wist and (tatrsiniinllko statute and to decide whether big' business Is (o continue and, If so, tinder what rules and regulation!

The prcumblo to the resolution reads, In part: "After a score or more of years of In activity, without premonitory notice, a national policy has been Inaugurated In dealings with corporations, which threat ens tho foundation of our credit and pros perity. This policy lias created a gtnerul lack of confidence on tho part of ail busi ness interests and causes fear among in dustrial corporations both lurge and small. Business men who are anxious and willing to conduct their enterprises along linos ot honesty and nre upright In ovrry particular arc included in recent attacks among thoso who have sought advantage by unfair and questionable methods. The declaration has been made that business must Kjuare Itself tu tho statute of the country, notwithstanding tha administrative officers have failed to pulnt the way und the courts have fullei to Interpret what the law means. "Tho Sherman anti-trust law when It made Its uppearunce In 1MI0 seemed a model of simplicity and wus emu-ted for the purpose of preventing cuiublnutlona In restraint of trade. It wus pasted by congress istenulhly to correct an ap proaching evil and wu.i directed at, a few corporations. "It gave the government four remedies to meet tho situation. One was to en Join the creation of n combination; another was to punlsii it for Its forma tion cr continuance; a third was to seise Its property In Interstate transit and tho Ian was to drMroy and dissolve-It by the Judgment of tho couit Only the last remedy has been Invoked to any extent und then only In ths most unequal and spasmodic way.

"In the absence of any definite rule by which to Judto of the reasonableness of coipurato conduct In restraint of trade the I rcnt uncertainty, which Is de structivo' to 1iMlnena development, is houtid to continue.

EFFECT OF THIS ELECTION Majority for Republican Candidates ou Tuesday Means Much. MEN WORTHY OF ALL SUPPORT Tlrket Clean from Top to Ilottous and tbe Interests of the stats Much Concerned In the ' Flection. KLMWOOl), Neb., ' Nov. 4.. (Special.) John 1 Kennedy, chairman at ths re publican state committee, spoke to a large and enthusiast la audience in Klni wood tonight. He discussed In ' detail the qualifications of tho candidates oh the republican slate ticket and urged re publicans to votd tho state und county tickets sti sight. Judges Ietton, Rose and llamer, h sutd, wers all men of ability and large experience on the brnoh Judges Letton and Rose In the supreme court and Judge llamer In the district court. The candi dates for re-election as regents ot ths state university, Mr. Hallcr and Mr. Lyford, were commended to the cltlsens of the stute ns men well qualified to direct the affairs ot Nebraska's greatest educational Institution; and Mr. Hall, for railway commissioner, as a cspable man wholly free from corporate control. Mr. Kennedy commented on the fact that four of ths six candidates wers born and brought up on ths farm and two of them in country towns. Drynn's Idea Preposterous. Referring to Mr: Bryan's .Invitation to progressive republicans to vote ths dsino cratlo ticket this full, Mr. Kennedy said.) "Ths proposition Is preposterous. It Is based upon a, falsa assumption. Mr. Mryan assumes and States that ths pro gressiva republicans are democrats it heart This Is hot true, they tvers bofn and bred republicans and they still be llovo In republican principles. Repub licans do not differ among . themselves to any. great extent as to parly princi ples, but they do dirfer as to their appllr cation. These differences they will fight out within party I'nes,. without the aid or consent of any other party, and theaa Issues will be settled to the satisfaction of us all and to the benefit of the whole country. "Contention within party lines does not necessarily mean political death or decay. It means life end strength and Intensity of purpose. The republican party has been blessed with strong men, men of courage , and conviction, Differences of opinion sVnong such men are common. Tho republican party was born ot a great conflict. It has been the storm center of political discussion for half a century. It has settled, and settled right,, tha great quostions from time to time con fronting the country. It will continue to settle them; am' the so-called Insurgent will stuy within the lines and contribute their full share to the solution of thess problems, with credit to themselves, and to the honor and glory of ths nation. Mryan Does Not Lend. "Then again, what would It profit tha progressive forces to follow Mr. Bryan Into the democratic camp? Wise men follow leaders who hav been Successful, but It can scarcely be said that Mr. llryan bus succeeded in politics. On moral questions Mr. Hryan is a power. As a private cltlsen he is above reproach, I have for him a genuine liking and re spect. Had ho taken to the stage, and dealt with the Berlous problems ot life. the plaudits ut the world would tava been ut his feet; had he takon to- ths pulpit, his Christian Influence would have exceeded that of any man of modern times, but ho has neither the tempera-, mt-nt, the training, nor the talents for leadership Rlons economic Hues, Ills party hud not even a modicum of success until It ceased to follow his advice, and today it dooa not follow where he leads. "Tho populist party was composed of honest, courageous and conscientious men, yet they lost their influence. Iden tity and power when they attached theiiiarlvts to the democratic party. Had the people'si independent party never been formed; had the members fought the good fight within the old party lilies. It would have been better for them and Infinitely better for the country.
