ROAD WILLING TO COSOPERATE
(From a Staff rrrpinilrnt.) '
LINCOLN, Nov. Special. A mass
meeting of fruit growers was held to
day In ropreaintatlve hall, to tHke att-pa
toward gettlnK a revocation of the rule
laid don hy the railroad. aRalnht the
retailing of fruit and vegetables from
freight cars at stations.
About twenty-five or thirty growers
rrp present. t". II. Gustafson, presi
dent, and Mr. Urinnell, was made secre
tary. Secretary Ptincan of the Horticul
tural society, stated the object of the
mteting, and Mr. i!ustafson said thnt
the real thins wnntel va free ili.itrt
button. He called upon T. K. Sturglss ol
the Twentieth Century Farm of Omaha.
Mr. Slurgla said, that drawing the line
between transportation and distribution
was a difficult one. Should the raiUva
commission hold, as the iiueatlun pro
rounded by Chairman Clarke, at the
late hearing would indicate, there would
Ve little relief for the railroads. He be
lieved that the best way to do would
lie to have a consultation with the rep
resentatives of the roads and secure somo
in m n)i I aiireement and then If that could
not be secured to might tie well t i fight
the rule.
Ileniurratr I.Ivpi Itiitht.
t'eorge Christy of Nemaha believed
that as long as the shippers paid de
murrage they should have the rislit to
the UBe of the car to sell its contents,
lie said that it the railroads ruled against
the shippers the people would rise up and
legislate In such a way that they would
suffer because of their ruling. Some
growers, ho said, were in favor of turn
ing the apples over ti the merchants
and letting them dispose of them. He
thought that the railroads had been used
toy the wholesalers and retailers as a sort
of catspaw, to pull their che.nuts out
of the fire. However, he had found the
railroad! always willing to meet him on
any reasonable proposition and lie
thought they would on this one.
.Mr. Sturglss thought that the retailers
ly asking for the order bad done much
to destroy community interests.
W. J. Korman of Hlalf thought there
ehould be a modification of the rule.
It ought to apply against t,he peddler, the
thing that the railroads were trying to
hit when they made the rule. He said
that it was Impossible to make any profit
liy turning the fruit over to the re
tailers because they would not pay what
the apples were worth, and it was there
fore up to the grower to peddle the fruit.
Jf some rule could be made which would
How the producer to peddle his own
stuff and cut out the middleman he
thought the matter could be fixed up.
Carl Aldrlch of Columbus wanted a
committee selected to take up the dif
ferent matters and confer with the rail
roads. C'larU'a 1'roitoanK
Byron Clark, solicitor for the Hurling
ton, was given a chance to talk for a
few minutes. Mr. Clark got right down
to the matter from the start. He wanted
the growers to understand fir.-t of all
that the railroads were Incorporated as
transporters and not retailers.
"When we have carried your products
to the place to which they are consigned,
our duty ceases," he said. Another thing
he desired them to remember was that
the tariffs made for handling freight
were made by the people and not by the
railroads. The methods of operation are
made by statute and the railroads are
the servants of the people, operating
under laws laid down by them.
"The transportation of apples," said
Mr. Clark, "is a new proposition, prac.
tically. Hut already the coal dealer, the
hay dealer, the shoe deals and other
dealers are making a demand that we ae
oor to them the same privileges of see
ing from the car that ywou have been
accorded 1 nthe past. Do you not under
stand what that will mean to us.' Cars
tied up all along the line by men who
feel they ran do business In that way.
Mr. Clark called attention to the fact
that he had very recently paid a woman
$1,000 for injuries received while Inves
tigating fruit In an apple car. Not know
In gtliat tho ear was being used the
freight men had backed up to It to get
It out of the way bo they could secure
two other cars the other Bide of It and
the compact had thrown the woman from
the improvised step of the ear and
had broken her leg. If the ears of the
company are to bo used for the sale of
every kind of merchandise, which would
be the case If such a condition continued,
It would be easy to see the danger that
might come.
Itoad Willing.
Mr. Clark said that at a small town
on the Burlington the people hud asked
for a distributing building. He had told
them that if they would find a suitable
place off the tracks, with the entrance
away from the tracks that tho road
would be glad to arrange so that the
building could be made a distributing
point and all danger be done away with.
The building could be made of corru
gated Iron and the cost, would not he
over for that size of a town. I la
believed that would settle the contro
versy. Mr. Clark's talk was creeled with
rnnsiderahle apl'lauae when he finished,
but he was kept on his feet some time
by reason of nueslions asked. H'.i plan
of a distributing building seeming to
strike a resionslve chord, while his
opening remarks regarding the duties
imposed on the loml.s by the people
seeming also have been well taken.
In the afternoon other speakers talked
cm the matter,' among them Railway Com
inifcsioner Hall.

THIS is the most liberal merchandising ana advertising campaign ever put
before the American housewife. It is estimated that 4,000,000 Polly Prim Polish
Mops will be given away. Our factory facilities are such that we are prepared
to furnish that many homes with this latest improved polish mop in a few months.
It is conceded by merchants, manufacturers, newspapers and advertising experts
that this is the most gigantic introductory enterprise ever presented to the public,
involving the expenditure of enormous sums in advertising and the cost of the
mops to be given free.
Our offer is so simple it needs no explanation. Just go to your merchant and
say, I want a dollar can of Polly Prim Polish and a Polly Prim Polish Mop free."
One dollar is the regular price of a full quart (32-oz.) can of Polly Prim Polish.
The regular retail price of a Polly Prim Mop is $1.25. So you get $2.25 in useful,
wanted articles for $1.
More Than Polish It Preserves!
DO NOT CONFUSE Polly Prim with ordinary
furniture polish. It is a scientific compound,
made after ths world famous formula of Dubeck
Monhardt of Germany.
Polly Prim Polish cleans, brightens and preserves
with a Eingl operation. It easily and quickly removes
stains, dirt, dust and crime and im
parts a tonic action to the varnish
by stimulating' it and preserving- it
from "age dry." Varnish pores take
up Polly Prim Polish and it pre
vents crystalization, drying, check
ing, cracking, scaling and dulling.
Polly Prim Polish is a clear solu
tion without grit or solids. It con
tain no gum, rosin, acid, alkali or
other ingredients that will injure the
most delicate varnish or paint. It
will not soil or stain the clothing,
curtains or rugs. It will not gum, be
come rancia or precipitate (settle).
Polly Prim Polibh is employed in fine homes, hotels,
art galleries, piano and furniture show rooms in Amer
ica and Europe, and is indispensable in the proper csre
of good furniture, pianos, oil paintings, automobiles
carriages, hardwood floois and all finely finished
surfaces. 6 o., 25c; 14 ox., 50c; 32 os., $1.00.
