In the reply to paragraph in the
Omaha Republican asking If the life
had been entirely knocked out of the
Omaha Yankton railroad scheme, George
l.. Miller Gays in communication to
the Republican:
The question is pertinent. / may not
be able to answer it definitely, but can
say with confidence that there are many
strong and taxpaying men in Omaha
who think that If the lifeof the Yankton
railroad scheme or that of a kindred
scheme that once included the Yankton,
has been knocked or iostled ont, 1t may
be, and ought TO be, Immediately res.
tored.
/ wish to say that one OF the principal
reasons why accepted, with much per-
soDsl reluctance, merely nominal place
at the head of the proposed new Union
CLUB in our city, was because could
procure G committee Of leading men
who, acting ss one man, might take up
the Yankton scheme and other business
projects, and unite our people in sup
port OF their own important interests.
With this very matter in view / have
| had recent conversations with several oi

| mittee Of fifteen, and with others who
are not connected with the new organi-
cation, and I am very confident that il
the right men in Omaha will agree to
agree for once in their lives, putting all
lesser things behind them, the Yankton
scheme with at least one important an
nexment, can be realized as potential
fact within eighteen months.
/ Omaha is conscious OF the Vita
Importance Of this connection and
this consciousness extends to all the
active business men OF the city. Its
chief trouble seems to be to reach ar
agreement upon any project having fol
its purpose the contamination of the pro
lieet. Existing railroads havinR an in
terest in the territory to be tapped take
advantage OF this condition and worh
confusion to every proposition submit
ted to the people. The interest OF rail
lroad owners in preventing the fulfill
ment of Omaha's hopes shows tho i'm
portance Of the proposed construction.

IT NEVER PAYS.

It never pays to fret and growl
When fortune seems our foe:
The better bred will look ahead
And strike the drawer blow.
Your luck IS work
And those who skirk
Should not lament their doom,
But yield the play,
And clear the way,
That better men have room.
1t never pays to wreck the health,
In drudging after gain,
And he is sold who thinks tuat gold
Is cheapest bought by pain.
An humble lot,
4 cosy cot,
Have tempted even kings,
For station high,
That wealth will buy,
Not oft coItentmeut brings.
Il never paws! 4 blunt refrain
Well worthy of a song,
For age and youth must learn the truth
That nothing pays that's wrong.
The good and pure
Alone are sure.
To bring prolonged success,
While that is right
In Heaven 5 sight
Is always sure to bless.
