DOES 1T MEAN A DEPOT
Why Have u. Il. officials Formed q
Real Estate Association?


The talk of a union depot and a large
freight depot for the Union Pacific has been
revived by the extension of tho tracks of
that company westward from Twenty-fourth
street which, 1t is claimed, is being done be-
cause the read requires more yard room at
that place. There is doubtless some truth in
this, but it is a well known fact that for
years the different arrangements of the COM
pany have been considering various locations
in that part of the city for both
passenger and freight depots. This
move is considered q larger one than is made
to appear on the surface, especially when
taken in connection with the Incorporation
which was filed a few days ago, which tells
of the organization, with a capital of $780, 600,
of an association to buy and sell land and
composed almost exclusively Of Union Pa
cific officials, the leaders being r. L.Kimball,
Erastus Young, c. j. Smith, John M. Thurs
ton and 7. M. Orr. 1t is not at oil likely
that the present engagements of these gentle
men would enable them to carry on a regu
lar real estate business, such as has been car
ried on here during the past
few years. Neither would it be
at all likely that they would nave others to
attend to the conduct of the business for
them. The most probable inference is that
these gentlemen have received a pointer as
to the intention of the company to build a
freight or passenger depot in a certain To-
cality and that accordingly, they intend TO
purchase in the neighborhood before the an
nouncement of the location is made and then
secure a good return upon the investment
when the proposed Improvement shall have
enhanced the value of their purchase. The
gentlemen are quiet about the matter but so
is nearly everybody who is working q quiet
deal.

Can Catarrh be Cured.

The past age might be called a superstitious
one. The present can more properly be called
an age of surprises, for many things once classed
among the impossibifities have now become
everyday possibilities. 1t would be superiuous
to enumerate them. But have we reached the
utmost limit2 Have WEI Physicians who claim
to make certain ailments the human body Is
subject to a special study and claim to be able

impossibilities of others is now all the rage, and

Mccoy or his associates do not make claims to
anything marvellous, such as raising. the dead
and giving them new life; neither DO they claim
to give sight to the blind; but by their new and
scientific method of treating catarrh they have

and throat troubles. They make catarrh q
specially because 1t Is one ofthe most prevalent
and troublesome diseases that the people of this
climate are heir to. Since DIR. Mccoy and his
associates have located in this city they have
treated with success hundreds of persons whom

classed among the incurnbles. Do they not pub

Graves Withheld.

At noon yesterday occurred the ceremony
that made MIR. Douglas N. Graves, of Bara-
boo, Wis, and Miss Allie Withheld, daughter
of John Withheld, man and wife. Dean Gard
ner officiated. The knot was tied under a
beautiful canopy of smilax, in front of which
was a beautiful floral horseshoe. A large
number of invited guests were present. The
bride was most charmingly attired in white
moire silk, entraIne, handsomely trimmed
with white chantilly lace; the veil was
fastened with orange blossoms and fell to the
end of the train. Last evening the newly
welded couple left on their wedding trip.
Mr.. Graves is engaged in business at Bara-
boo, Wis, where he, in partnership with his
father, WINS extensive stone quarries. The
lovely bride he has won is one of Omaha's
most charming society ladies, and she carries
with her the well wishes of a large circle of
friends. Mr.. and Mrs. Graves will pass the
summer at the lakes and then take up their
residence in BarabOO.

dead man and who paid s45 of the latter's
money TO the undertaken, brought the miss
ing gentleman forward a few hours after the
announcement was put on the streets. He
claims that he got the money in question
from the sisters in the hospital, the same
having been given them by Murray when he
entered the institution. The sister supposed
O'Neill was a friend Of the dead man and re-
turned the money so that IL might
eventually reach those who had the best title
to it or that II might be used in defraying the
expenses OF Murray's burial.
O'Neill adheres TO the story published,
namely, that Murray had paid DR.. Smith 500
a short time before entering the hospital to
be cured Of dropsy. In a card over that gen.
tleman's name, which appeared in The BEE,
the physician says that Murray did not pay
him a penny for medical treatment. In adj
dition TO free treatment, DIR. Smith went to
st. Joseph's hospital and paid $40 out of his
own pocket for two weeks board and attend
ance. Thus the matter stands. When the
mystery will be unravelled and the incon-
sisteut statements harmonized cannot be
imagined.
GRIFFIN.
Mrs. Joel Grifiu, an old and respected
resident of Omaha, died Tuesday night atthe

and were owners Of considerable property.
Her husband died about five years ago, and
was a man we'll thought of by all who knew

Omaha and the Union Pacific.

Senator Henderson has presented to
the senate of the United States the pc
tition of the Omaha board of trade in
favor of the Union Pacific funding bill.
In Washington this will be taken as
the expression of a commercial body
representing the mercantile interests
of the Nebraska metropolis. In Omaha
it is known to be u transparent sham.
The Omaha board of trade is con
posed of $50 members. There were
just fourteen members present when
the resolutions ~instructing the
secretary to forward the petition were
adopted. The whole proceeding was u
farce SO far as it pretended to
represent the sentiments Of the
board of trade or of the citizens
of Omaha generally. But it will
serve the purpose for which it was
gotten up just the same by affording an
excuse to our repres entatiyes in con-
gress for supporting the Union Pacific
bill.
The only return which we are prom
ised for favoring this bill to continue the
eXorbitant trans-Missouri tolls for fifty
years longer is the construction of new
branches to the Union Pacific system.
Where these branches will be built is
| ~problcmatic. Ten chances to one they
| will be built in Kansas and Colorado for
the benefit of Kansas City, where
| the Boston managers of the Union Pa
cifc have extensive personal invest
ments. Possibly some of them will be
built on the Pacific coast. II the Omaha
board of trade had eXacted ONE tan
glble guarantee from the Union Pacific
that it would carry into effect some OF
its long standing promises of improved
transfer and depot facilities, there
might be u shadow Of excuse for allow
ing itself to be used as a decoy to our
senators and representatives. 10 in

Union Pacific would have been

The Voice of Oregon.

There was no encouragement for the
democracy IN the result of the Oregon
election. The party had undoubtedly
expected a different outcome. The CAM
paign was made on national issues, and
the influence Of the administration was
thrown into the scale to the fullest ex-
tent practicable. No restraint was put
upon the political activity of the federal
of1iceholders in the state, outside talent
was imported to stimulate democratic
zeal, the duty of endorsing the policyof
the administration was vigorously
urged for the impression it would make
upon the country at the opening
of the national campaign, the i'm
portance OF securing a demo-
cratic senator, which would tie
the two parties in the United States
senate, was earnestly presented, andin
short every possible effort was made to
place Oregon in the democratic column.
The result is q republican victory by an
increased majority. The first express
sion at the ballot box on the policy OF
, the administration is condemnatory.
Whether it be ascribed to the PROPOSE
tion to make wool free, or to that and
other causes, the reputation is unmis-
taxable, and it removes all question as
to where Oregon will be found in No
vember if the republicans make no
mistake at Chicago.
There is a moral influence in this re-
publican victory, by an increased ma
iority, at this iuncture, which is
of very substantial value. Its
effect upon republicans everywhere
will be r~eassuring. 1t proves that the
influence of the administration, exerted
through federal officeholders and by
every mean known to political manipu-
%lation, may be less formidable than has
been feared. 1t shows that the people
are very much alive to the issues that
will be most conspicuous in the national
campaign, and that their action will be
largely determined by what they be-
lieve to be their interests. The Oregon
figures give evidence that a great many
democrats deserted the party. Why
may it not reasonably be supposed that
there will be a similar experience in
other states? All is not serene and har-
monious at st. Louis. 1t is inevitable
that the completed work of the national
convention will disappoint many and
embitter some. There are demo-
Gratis in every state who will sacrifice
party to personal interest. The in
tluences that swelled the republican
vote in Oregon will not be absent else
where, and they will be nowhere more
strongly operative than in the doubtful
states of New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut. There is great encourage,
ment to republican confidence in the
Oregon victory.

THE New York Times has special adj
vices from Chicago that the Rock
Island must of necessity extend its line
iAto Nebraska at Omaha and from here
radiate to the southwest and northwest.
This will be done, in all probabilities,
as soon as that road, now busy with ex-
tensions in Kansas aud Colorado, can
turn its attention TO this state. The
Rock Island has very expensive work
on its hands in the construction Of ter
lnInal facilities at Kansas City. But
that will not in the least deter the road
from its entering upon Nebraska terri
tory. Since the Union Pacific has
turned its back on the Rock Island and

obvious. that speedy measures must be
