The management of the Union Pacific-"The
Overland Route" made a change in the rum
ming time of its local trains Sunday, April g.
that will be hailed with delight by the resi-
dents of 1.-The Omaha and Republican Valley"
This change is made in conjunction with the
St. Joseph and Grand Island branch, making
the leaving time of No. Z at Council Bluffs
$40 a. m. and Omaha 900 q. m. Arriving at
Valley at 1925 a. m; it connects with the
train arriving at Valparaiso at 11:56 a. NJ, and
at Stromsburg at ESQ p. m. Here it connects
with the St. Joseph and Grand Island train,
via McCOol Junction and Fairfield, arriving at
Alma at 1O:6Op. IN. The train running opposite
leaves Alma daily at $3.50 a. m, arriving at
Stromsburg at r. p. m, Valparaiso 2:3O p.
M, and Valley 4,15 p. III. connecting with No.
arriving in Omaha at $3.50 p. IN. and Council
Bluffs at 6:1O p. M, connecting with eastern
trains. A change in the running of trains bet
ween Lincoln and Valparaiso enables pas
sengers leaving Alma in the morning to reach
Lincoln at $40 p. m. Leaving Lincoln at II 35
a. H. they connect at Valparaiso with the
Alma train, arriving there 1000 p. III.
Good time and through chair car accommo-
dations, makes this the most desirable line
running into this portion of Nebraska. Pas
sengers between Alma and Lincoln will be
obliged to make only one change and that at
Valparaiso. J. S. TEBBETs,

Of board Of tra1e, the capitalists have
inaugurated a novel movement which not
only aids materially in the growth Of the
place, but gives such advantages to the
laboring men that the chances for strikes
and kindred troubles are reduced to q mini
mum. Any manufacturer locating in Olean
IS guaranteed homes for his employees built
and supplied to them at actual value, the
tenants paying thereon the rental price
of from five to SIX dollars per month. Thus
Is left the laborer the option Of owning
his home, or of paying rent, the terms
If either instance being the same, save
in the matter Of interest upon the unpaid
portion in case Of purchase. This the CAPT.
talist takes as his profit on the transaction.
In the one instance the man who buys has
his home paid for in a few years; in the
other the tenant pays in the same time
nearly as much and does not own single.
In Olean the laboring classes are not slow
to see the advantage Of buying; the manu-
facturer sees the advantage Of steady and
reliable labor thus afforded, and the resi-
dent capitalist a sure prevention Of strikes
and safe investment of his money. The
example Of the moneyed men Of Olean Is
worthy the emulation Of those In other
towns whose growth is regarded BY the
too conservative policy Of capital-Ek
