' Fteltls of the State. (
The bumper jrniiUt, grain crop being
harvested In Nebraska and adjoIntnK
states has brought about r strlngencr
In the labor market, especially In cjrcls
Trhtre common labor Is required. As
result every man who ha -wanted to
work has -been able to find employment
at Irom U0 to W.M per day.
Hero In Omaha the express companlei
nave been among the first to feel the
effect of the hlsh wages paid By the
farmers of Nebraska. Around the depots
the express companies employ largo
forces handling freight and trucking. A
couple of days "ago almont the entire la
bor force of one of these companies quit
And hustled off to the harvest fields,
The agent In cbargo of the work thought
It Mi easy matter to fill the places of
the men who had gone harvesting, but
when he wont among the labor agencies
he was unable to find applicants for
his Jobs.
When the express man told the labor
ing men that he would pay $40 per
month and that they would be expected
to work ten to eleven hours per day
and seven' Ski't each week, with nothing
fixtrft Jor tOverUme, they turned down
v Iujb C Ulsta Wages,
Thft fiiir$s& we experiencing'' 'great
ttflculty s4ii teelng their men on the
sections and the lure of the high wages
dn the farms have caused - hundreds of
them to thiwf down the pick and the
shovel and leave for the wheat fields.
However, the railroad officials are not
feeling badly, feeling that while they
-wilt Jssc their men for a time they will
get Ug returns later in the fall when
the grain moves to market,"
The Northwestern has been hiving soma
unique experiences with Nebraska farm-,
el during the last week. A good deal of
the company's Nebraska mileage Is
through the greatest winter Wheat belt
In-the world, When the harvest com.
menced. section men quit In pairs and
quartets. Something had to be done, so
this week officials honr sphered up an
even 100 ablebodled men, moat of them
young fellofla, capable, of doing hard
Tork, They Were Just the kind 0? men
any railroad company would want to
hire. They wero atj furnished with trans
portation and sept out into Nebraska, to
be dropped off at stations when needed.
They got their rides, but dt fo exceed
half a doxen of them are how Working
cn the sfoUona, As soon as the young
fellows got into the country ,tu fields of
ripening grtn looked pretty goa t6 them
and they began to leave the train. In
aoma unknown manner farmers along the
refit had been apprised of the coming
ef tha kawlftf men and at aVeaens of
towns they wera at the .stations waiting
for th-ew.

Bine Says Charter
is Good and Will Be
t Adopted by the City.
John A. nine, city attorney.' is can-
tinned that the new charter Is admirably
uuBiueu io mo neeus oi me my oi
Omalia, In speaking of the charter, Mr. i
nine says: . .
"There are certain newspaper? which
oppose the home rule, charter olely.Je
cause of the men whVwotelt. It is a
good charter and the 'people will adopt
It in spite of the personalities which
seem to be the vogue with the opponents
of .this charier.
"And ap&klhg of personalities, there
4s always another side , to tho case, nt-
member how- James C. Dahlrnan cams
here and ran for mayor and was acctlseo
of being 'a non-resident, although he haa
lived here. for. four years T
"The same tactics coiild be used In'this
fight If the opponents want. to indulge I
lh parsonalltlesithe''may'feersure' that'
the mud can be returned -with accumula
tions,
"For myself, I think .this is a good
charter and ought to pas. -More thaw
that, I believe It wilt
"The talk that It 'Is the work ot on
man is bosh. Nearly every proposition
voted on showed a lively diversity ot
opinion. That sdme of the bigger prop,
osltlons wero carried by a nearly Unani
mous vote, goes to shoW that these Vary
ing opinions were an one when on the
justice of such 'measures."
Or. n. W. Connell. city health commis
sioner, who will go out of office after
the home rule charter Is adopted, this
being largely due to the efforts of hi
earnest professional enemy. Dr. 13. Holo
vtrhlner, president of the nonrd of edu
cation, will' enter ttfe'rfice for election to
the office, he announced today. -
Connell believes Tlolovtchlner will also"
run for the office-, although Ilolovtchlner
denies that he has any design on the M.
"Ilolovtchlner will be In the race, I
absolutely believe," sold Connell, "arid
I'm going In with' him and mako a
strong and stubborn campaign for tho
position, believing I am entitled to It on
the record I have made."
Dr. Ilolovtchlner nnd many others are
of the opinion that it Is next to Impos
sible for a man to be elected health
commissioner after he has served a term
and enforced tho stringent health regufo-:
tmns or the city thoroughly.
