If ho should die before tho election,

Our history reveals Instancos
where it similar exigency wbh pre

The Tariff Commission.
HcgardlcBS of. the outcome ot tho

of tho next congress, congress
should continue the tariff commis

committed to It. Colonel Koosovelt
advocated tho principle some years

hand, might go wltb. tho democrats
In opposing It If ho permitted par
tisanship to guldo him. t ho listened
to tho domand of the pcoplo, we fool
sure, ho would do what ho could

Standard Oil company has notified

which will necessitate making over

OMAHA. Oct. 23. To the Editor of The '
Beo: In The Bee I camo upon an article '
headed "Hans for Omaha" which went
on to gtvo an account of a meeting ot
the Commercial club and some very abla
speeches by various members. But it
strikes mo that In planning for a Greater
Omaha that some or all of your Com
mercial ctub have lost sight of some ot the
small things which Impress tho stranger
while stopping for a time In your city. I
will mention some which struck me very
forcibly.
A few evenings ago t was coming cast
On Union Pacttlo train No. H. We were
delayed a short time a short distance
west of Elkhorn and arrived a few min
utes late I o'clock Instead of 12:25 o'clock,
I had fallen In with a friend who resides
In Omaha and he Insisted that I spend
tho night at his beautiful homo In the
West Farnsm district, an Invitation I
gladly accepted. Together we met an
acquaintance ot his who 'was preparing
to leavo for Chicago. We visited for a
few mlnatcs and then proceeded to my
friend's home, when, lo, not an auto was to
Ixj had. Bvery one had been pressed Into
scrvlco to take belated passengers up
town.
I remarked that It was ot no con
sequence; we could tako tho street car,
for .he had told me the car line ran
within a block of his home. I was sur
prised to recclvo the reply that there
waa no ear service at that- hour. "Why.
certainly you have an owl car In a city
of 200.000 Inhabitants?" "No, nothing
dplng after 12:41 o'clock from the Union
station." "But what do the people do
who como In on the lato trains?" "Oh,
they take cabs or wait until the cars
commence to run." "What time In the
morning Is that?" "Five a. m." But I
continued; "How about the people who
cannot afford cabs; thp train employes,
for Instance?" For the conductor had
told me he lived In the northwestern part
of the city. "Oh, they walk, or if they
llvo out too far they stay at the depot
until morning."
A city of 200,000 people and no car ser
vice after 13 o'clock!
Just affew evenings nfer this? I hav
ing extended my visit over Sunday, my
friend and myself repaired to the Union
station to meet hla daughter who was
coming In on the Chicago-Rock Island
train No. , This train was a few min
utes late and we waited in the station
until It arrived at 1:20 o'clock, and waa
confronted with the Information that
there was no elevator running to the
street. "We still have tho stairs," I
Jokingly remarked, whon I was informed
that hot so; we were compelled tq stum
ble through the dark and mud together
with some thirty other belated people to
the roadway In the rear of the building.
nnd this a Union station in a city ot
200,000, oil on account of some official
putting out the order to lock the front
doors after 1:30 o'clock In the morning.
Now ( wUh to ask If these are not .
conditions which your Commercial club
should look Into? No night cars, a Union
station closed against the people who
may come to It when not Informed on
thp exact schedule ot trains, and the
stranger goos away with no very favor
able Impression of your city and Its
commercial management.

I THE D00 UNDER THE WAGON.
An Old Favorite.
"Come, wife." said good old farmer Gror.
"Put on your things, tls market day;
And well be off to the nearest town.
There and back ere the sun goes down.
Spot? No we ll leave- old Spot behind."
But Spot he barked and Spot he whined,
And soon made up his doggish mind
To follow under tho wagon.
Away they went at a good round pace,
And Joy came Into the farmer's face.
"Poor Spot," said he, "did wnnt to come,
But I'm awful glod he's left at home
He'll guard tho barn, and guard the colt.
And keep the cattle out of the,lotr
t'l'm not so sure of that." thought Spot.

Home through the lonely forest. Hark'
A robber springs from behind n tree
"Your money or else your me, says
The moon was up. but he didn't sec
The dog under tho wagon.
Spot ne'er barked and Snot ne'er whined
nut qutrkly caught the thlf behind;
Ho dragged him down in the mire
And tore his coat ami tore his shirt,
Then held him fast on the mirv ground;
The robber utte-ed not a sound,
While ' hands and feet the farmer
bound
And tumbled him Into the wagon.
So Spot he saved tho farmer's life.
The farmer's money, tho farmer's wire,
And now a hero grand and gay,
A silver collar be wrars today:
imnnir his friend", amontr his foes
And everywhere his master goes
He follows on his horny toes,
The dog under the wagon.
