CARS FORPEDDLING
Commission Listens to Arguments
of Railroad Officials and Case
Taken Under Advisement.
SHIPPERS DENY ALLEGATIONS
(From a Stuff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 17. (Special Telegram.)
Objection to the use of their freight
cars as salesrooms from which shippers
could retail their goods at stations was
the principal reason given by General
Freight Agent Holcomb of tlie Burling
ton for the promulgation of an order by
that road prohibiting the use of cars for
that purpose, and which was the reason
for the hearing today before the tate
Railway commission brought by retailers.
Mr. Holcomb thought It would be Just as
reasonable to allow anybody to set up a
cigar stand or a gum Joint In the com
pany's waiting rooms as to allow the
use of cars from which to sell apples and
other fruits.
In the contention the Burlington was
Joined by General Freight Agent Lane of
the Union Faclflc. Tanger from acci
dents caused by people crossing the tracxs
to get to the cars was another reason
given for the order.
The railroad officials were closely ques
tioned by the commissioners and J. Tt.
Duncan of the State Horticultural so
ciety, G. D. Christy of Johnson county,
a lesding apple shipper, denied the alle
gations of the railroads, and cited cases
where the railroads allowed shippers of
stock to use its yards for the purpose of
sales without opposition by the roads.
The commission took the case under ad
visement. Madison Farmer

SHARP TELLS OF
LATENT POWER
Nebraska Has Great Amount in
Water Courses that is Yearly
Going to Waste.
MARR IS ELECTED PRESIDENT
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 17. (Special. Elimi
nating the usual sprccchmaktng which
has characterized the annual banquets of
the Nebraska Manufacturers' association
the members were given an hour of hi
larity when President F. R uiunn n
Omaha was pulled before a kangaroo
court charged with the crime of attempt
ing to wrest control of the Omaha gov
ernment from Its political boss.
This morning the headliner of the pro
gram wss an address by president Hhifrp
of the Lincoln Traction company on
water pswer development In Nebraska.
Mr. Sharp has some strong ideas on the
subject, and the members were murh In
terested In what he had to say. He told
than In part that ttS.OOO.nno or fcX,Ono.t0
were floating unharnessed down No,
braska rivers Into the Gulf of Moti
yearly, when the citizens could keep that
amount or wealth within their state.
"Three elements that must be present
to create heat and power are wood, coal
and oil none of which Nebraska pos
sesses." he said, "nut Nebraska has a
fourth element water power which the
greatest engineers tias-a pronounced of
unlimited possibilities' on Nebraska Hir
ers."
To create the present power In the

sum. kept in the state, would Incren..

Molirarn and nine.
While the Niobrara and the Rlu
have excellent water power opportunities,
Mr. Sharp took the specific Instance of
the Ixup river with its three hr.n..
which, lie said, had been pronounced by
engineers as possessing possibilities equal
to the best river projects In the country.
On account of the condition of the soil,
he explained that it would be necessary
to construct canals from the river with
a slight drop, much less than the fiva
to seven feet drop of the river Itself.
With a ten-mile canal a fall of fifty
feet could be secured, to rach th level
of the river, a fall that would develop
an Immense horsepower.
State development of water power, he
said, would not be feasible for years to
come. The initial Investment for tlflles,
overflow rights, machinery of the plants
and the like, he said, would cost from
t5.00O,O00 to 17,000.000 with $3,000,000 to !,
000,000 more for the high tension lines
and right of ways necessary to transmit
the current 800 miles.

After two years of surveying and map
making and expert advice, Mr. 8 harp ex
plained how he had secured the necessary
capital to hack a development project,
when the legislature Interfered with stat
utes 'that would discourage the bravest
Investor. He appealed to the manufac
turers to use their Influence to remedy
those laws In their own Interests and In
the Interests of the state. ,.f

COMMON SENSE
AND HEALTH
COMMON sense tells you that real health cannot bo
forever dependent upon the artificial stimulation of
laxatives and cathartics.
Drugs relieve constipation temporariy, but never cure it.
Nujol is odorless and tasteless, absolutely neutral, and is
not digested or absorbed into the system. It acts merely as
a mechanical lubricant.
Nujol is not a drug. Its use will not give quick, temporary
relief. But Nujol is a genuine remedy in that it relieves con
stipation in the most natural way by lubricating the lining
of the intestines, softening the intestinal contents, and thus
promoting healthy and normal bowel activity.
