Vice President Johnson was the first speaker and took up the position thst the Interests of Omaha and the Missouri Paclfls are so closely allied that what Is food for one Is good for the other. This, ha contended, is so apparent that a Mis souri Pacific man always feels perfectly st home In the city, even upon his first visit her. ' He told In a brief war of the improvements that have been made upon the Omaha end of the system and ot the betterment of equipment during the last year, this having been continued until the road Is now in first-class con dition. President Bush ld that while ha had been In Omaha twice before, this was th f.rat time he bad ever had. aa op portunity of meeting! the burlness men.

President Bush predicted that the de mand for money Is going to be great In the future and that the times for borrow ing It at and per cent Interest has passed. As a result, if the cost ot opera tion ta to Increase and the revenues de crease, not only the Missouri Pacific, but most other roads will In the future, bay some difficulty ta meeting operations. t - ' . ' Meat of Feeling.' Reference waa mads to the unfriendly feeling that at on Urn prevailed toward the Missouri Pacific but this, the speaker thought, had disappeared, aa waa evi denced by so many of the' business men of the city being present. He felt that such meetings as that held in connection with the luncheon were good for all con cerned. They enabled the railroad and business men to get closer together and to have a batter understanding of matters that concerned the Interests of all. He compared the railroad business to all other lines of trade, for if It could not be continued at a fair profit with a balance left over for the stock and bondholders, it would soon become necessary to quit. Following the talk, there was a sort of a reception, at which th Omaha men present were given an' opportunity to meet President Bush and other officials ot the Missouri Pacific Co far A ate Ride. , After the dinner th visiting railroad official were given an automobile ride about the city, visiting the parks and other places of Interest, returning In time to lesve on their special that was scheduled to depart from th Webstar street depot at o'clock.'
