A CIRCULAR.

The following is copy of a circu-
lar received Friday by AgentBurdick,
Of the Omaha road, and addressed to
employees of said road:
CHICAGO, June 20, 1894.
TO the Employees of the c., st. p, M.
q o. Ry. Co.:
The effort now being made by ire
SpOnSlble persons to induce the en-
ployes of the company to abandon
their employment with the avoWed
object Of Gripping the company in
the discharge of it's duty as common
carrier, should meet with no favor
whatever. There is no unadjusted
grievance between the company and
any class of its employees. Every
promise and obligation has been and
will be faithfully kept. You are
therefore urged to continue faithful
to the cOmpany's interest in the dis
charge of your several duties and not
to listen to the appeal of any persons
whatever to make the Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Ry. Co.
and it's employees party to the adjust
menu of alleged grievances between
another company and it's employes.
The duty of the company under the
law, both state and congressional. is
so plain that it does not appear to be
necessary to make any explanation
nor to offer an apology. 1t must and
will operate it's railway without fear
or favor, and it will exhaust it's re-
sources to the uttermost under the
law to protect it's property and the
men who are engaged in operating it.
You are therefore urged to remain
steadfast in your respective places
and the discharge of your duty.

Mr.. Chas. Kramer, of Good Thun-
der, in talking to a Journal representa-
tive is regarding chinch bugs says: II
obtained some of the diseased bugs
last year and placed them on my
farm, and also saw that all the old
straw stacks and rubbish on my place
was burned. This summer [ find that
there are 80 per cent. less bugs on my
farm than on adjoining farms where
no attention was paid towards the
destruction of these pests year ago.
Having experimental with the dis
eased bugs am strongly of the opinion
that the danger from the chinch bugs
can be greatlyOless by the use of
the infected ones"
