THAT ROCK ISLAND LINE.
Delegates for the Short Route in
the City.

From the Lincoln, Neb., Journal
Some time ago the Journal gave an
account of the visit of Mr.. A. L. Funk
of Red Cloud, TO this city and of the
plan that he laid before the real estate
exchange for a route of the Rock Is
land southwest from this city by way
of Crete, Strang and Red Cloud for
the Denver main line of the road.
The result of Mr.. Funk's visit was the.
gathering OF delegates from eleven
different counties in this city yesteF-
day afternoon to talk up the proposed
line. The route, if followed, would
make a saving Of nearly seyenty-hve
miles over the route by Beatrice and
Fairbury.
A lively discussion Of the points in
favor of the hne as proposed was had
by quite a number of the delegates
and the greatest enthusiasm was dis
played. A committee of one from
each town and city was appointed to
/, secure and prepare statistics and in
formation as to the amount of bust
ness, the territory tributary to the
different localities, etc. Reports are
to be made to Mr.. H. NJ Wells, of
! Crete as secretary Of the committee
at the earliest possible time.
Another committee consisting of
! one member from each county and
five at large was appointed to take
statistics and information and present
the same to the officers Of the road
and use their influence for the line
as proposed. This committee con
sists of the following gentlemen: II
! G.. Clark. Omaha; H. T. Clark, Oma-
ha; n. H. Meeker, Greenwood; J. H
AIcClay, Lincoln; @. @. White, Crete
B. Mitchell, Strang; g. w. Barnes

Woman sufrapa

Wherever woman suffrage has been
tried, it has proved a success. The
testimony from English sources is
abundant that, since the complete en-
reimbursement of women in the Isle
of Man, the condition ofpublic affairs
there has improved; and this fact is
used as an argument to show that
parliamentary suffrage should be ex-
tended to women in England also. In
the territory of Wyoming women
have enjoyed full suffrage since 1859,
a period Of twenty-one years.-Er.

More can be accomplished in the man

Prohibition in Iowa.

The interview with Dir. Clarkson
Of Iowa, publised in yesterdays morn
ing CAPITAL, shows very plainly that
the republicans of that State are go
ing to yield to the demands of the
liquor power. And 1t Is unfortunate
from every point of view; it is IN
fortunate for the people at large, it is
unfortunate for republicans, Iowa in
particular, and it is specially unfor-
tlnate for temperance people every
where. The statement that these
local option republicans, or re-sub-
mission republicans, or high license
republicans, or any other class of anti
prohibition republicans in a prohIbi-
ton state favor temperance, Is all
moonshine, if there is anything in the
world moonshine which will suggest
substance. Where the law Of a state
prohibits the manufacture and sale Of
liquors for the purpose Of beverage,
when any class of people, no matter
who they are or how respectable or
how largely they proclaim their tenn
perance proclivities repeat, when
such people in such a place favor any
change in the law which makes il
possible for the establishment of
the saloon, they simply favor the sa-
loon and are doing the work of the
saloon-power voluntarily and of their
own free viii and accord. This If
putting it strongly We know, but il
can not be put in any milder language
and the truth be told. Men talk about
regulating and restricting the liquor
traffic; strange to say that these same
men, while protesting to be temper

same time propose a policy which vii

The time has come for very plain tall
in this matter. Either we must b.
free from the saloon, or We must b.
slaves to it. There Is no middl

bottom, It is very we'll, beginning a
the bottom and going upward, steI
by step, holding every position gain

we have secured prohibition, Whel
