The Union Pacific railroad Is I'm the

the Nebraska maximum rate law
If the receivers can put in effect rate re-
ductions that cut the tariffs on merchan-
disc in carload lots from the river to
Utah points $3.50, or 72 per cent of the
old rate, why can they not logically
put in force in Nebraska cut not to
exceed 22 per cent of the present
rates? The courts are the peoples
tribunals and the people would be the
sole beneflciarieso of such action upon
the part OF the Union Pacific. 1t is
said that Receiver Clark long ago rec
ognized the injustice done his Utah
patrons by the operation OF the old
rate and he ordered the radical cuts
to reinstate hisl great road in favor
with the people of Zion. Would that
such a laudable motive might inspire
him to favor the people of this state.

FOR HER BIRTHDAY,

Household Words.
Do you remember, dear, the night
When with the current swiftly gliding
We sped beneath the eastern height,
The moon behind the beeches hiding2
The shadows by the woodland cast.
Lay dark upon the darksome river;
The ink-dark eddes hurrying past,
Set every little reed a-quiver.
And as we gazed with straining brows
TO scan the channel through the cleaning,
A bank of reeds would brush our bows,
A headland through the haze come loom
ing.
But each in turn was quick to mark
The threatening bank or shelving beaches.
And hand in hand we steered our bark
Safe back into the moonlit reaches.
so on life's waters swift and wide,
AS down the eddying years they sweep IN.
Loves eyes shall watch on every side,
Loves hand upon the tiller keep us.
And though the night be dark and drear,
And threatening shadows loom before US
Thus hand in hand we'll face our fear,
With Gods eternal starshine Ger us.

Road improvement in Massachusetts.

The people Of Massachusetts, have
not yet grSspod the C9xsy idea Of
paying for public improvements By the
non interest bond system, but the
Legislature of the stste has done the
next bsst thing, namely, taken hold OF
the building Of highways and paying for
1t by appropriation.
The last Massachusetts Legislature
appropriated 100000 for the construction
Of highways on the State system,l say 8
the New York Post. The Republican
and Democratic State conventions Bthis
month both declared in their platforms
10 favor OF good roads. There is no
question that the people are awakinR TO
the advantage Of good roads. AT present
petitions for construction by the State
commissions have been received from
$50 Of the towns Of Massachusetts,, or
just about two-thirds Of the whole.
Construction 10 actually going on In
seventy different localities. About 700
miles have been petitioned FOR already,
and localities which have bean hostile,
apparently from fear OF ths County
Commissioners that their prestige was
to be interfered with, have come around
t. favor the commission. Lt Ia expected
that ont OF the 20,700 miles Of road in
the state, outside Of the cities, about
1900 win ultimately DO taken under the

for their maintenance. That is, about

the abundant promise for the future
which IL seen. The introduction Of
better roads has had tho effect within
this short time, which was anticipated,
Of stimulating the towns to do batter ON
their own account. Mr. McOlintock OF
the Commission says that at least 30 per
cent. Of the towns which hsvs petitlousd
for new ROADS have bought new road
machinery and expect to improve their
system generally. The effect OF the
abort pieces OK improved roads which
are found in different part Of the State
has been to cause q demand that all the
other roads be made as good. OtCourse
the reform will be very long in accom-
plishment and may nsvsR be fully
realized, but il has actually begun, and
the more it is tried the botter it Ia
appreciated.
Another benefit to Che State is that,
under the supervision OF the Highway
Commission, there has been developed
grade Of road building ability which will
bS Of permanent value TO the towns,
even after the men have ceased to work
for the State.
"One object which the Commission has
Set resolutely before it from the beginn-
Ing has been to do its work thoroughly. 1t
has realized that the success or failure
Of the entire movement, az regarded In itS
popular aspect, depended upon CON.
scientious work from the foundation.
The Commission keeps accurate records
Of everything which has been done. It's
laboratory, says Prof. Shaler, 10 the
best in the State for such work.
Careful tests are made Of ell the rock
and stone which are used for surfacing,
and it will be known at the end Of the
life Of Che roadbsd what has been the
most suitable material. Analyses are
made in the laboratory to determine the
touehnsss and hardness Of the rock.
"This work Of road building is Of no
mean Importance in the development Of
the State. Prof. Shaler says that he has
computed, In terms Of freight transporta.
tion, the distance OF q manufacturer in
Cummington, in the west part Of Hsmp-
shire county, from Boston. The result
showed that, by this test, the manu-
fscturer was further away than IL he had
lived beyond Omaha.
"The Commission takes steps 10 show
In the future the exact benefit which is
derived from the state roads. Count 10
to be made Of the teams using the roads
ct present. and the character OF the
users, whether light teams or heavily
loaded wagons. This will give Q basis
of comparison at any tims hereafter. II
10 believed thstnot only win there be an
increased use Of the better roads by those
who would naturally drive over them,
but that they will be used az thorough
fares by many who will drive out Of
their way in order to get upon them for
heavy hauling, or for . long trip. The
saving OF grades and ths strengthening
Of curves are expected to prove sconomi-
cal for those who may be Rt trouble to
get upon the road at the outset.
