revenue which would accrue to that
road were it brought in by way of Oma-
ma and Julesburg. With this statement
comes another of kindred character to
the effect that an arrangement has
been contaminated whereby the Union
Pacific has already secured control of
the line from Julesburg to Denver,
thereby accounting for the Colorado
roads refusal to accept freight via
Julesburg.
In Colorado the Gulf road has many
friends among the shippers, and on
that account, as well as on ccoun Of
the highly satisfactory service in that
department, for which it is noted, there
are many extensive shippers who refuse
to give an order for a shipment of a
large consignment. except with the
understanding that the Gulf is to han
die it into Denver or any other Colo
RADIO common point that happens to be
Its destination. By reason Of such
agreements the Gulf is in a position to
dictate as to which way the freight
shall be brought into Colorado.
To courtc,act the effect of this
telling warfare the Union Pacific freight
men are getting their heads together
preparatory to making a firm stand
against its rapidly rising opponent, but
the Gulf has the advantage of having
opened hostilities before they were
aware of what was being done, thereby
gaining a great advantage over it's
stronger opponent. After the reorgani-
cation of the Gulf system the fight will
be waged with even more vigor than it
is being carried on at the present time.
The adoption of an impartial policy as
to what connecting line shall haul the
business from the Missouri river into
this state, has won for the Gulf the
friendship Of both the Missouri Pacific
and the Santa Fe, and has made allies
OF those two powerful lines, their nat
ural feeling of rivalry as regards the
Union Pacific tending to strengthen
their friendship for the Gulf.
From all that can be learned of the
quiet actions Of the Gulf people it is re-
garded as safe to presume that nothing
short of an earthquake. enveloping all
the higher officials of the road and the
members Of the reorganization COM
mittee, can make the Gulf anything but
a strictly Independent system. An al
~liance with the Union Pacific has been
feared in times past, but the recent de-
v~elorments related above are sufficient
to contradict all theories Of such a
nature.

TRUMBULL AFTER THE U. P,

TRUMBULL AFTER THE U. P.
The Denver Times Of last evening
contains the following:
The Gulf road has trained it's engines
Of war in the direction Of the Union Pa
cifc and has fired a few volleys with
such a telling effect that the latter road
has been made to vince, all of which
is regarded as a positive indication that
after November 10, when the Gulf sys-
tenn will be disposed Of at public auc-
ton to the highest bidder, that road will
be operated as an entirely Independent
system. Choosing the most vulnerable
point, Receiver Frank Trumbull has di-
rected his efforts toward the freight
business Of the larger corporation and
is now waging a war on that depart
ment that is causing those at its head
no little annoyance.
1t developed today that the Gulf road
is refusing to receive any freight from
eastern points in Colorado. unless that
freight is brought into the state by way
Of Kansas City and Pueblo, thus cut

NO MORE LANDS.
All Selections to Which the State Is
Entitled Have Been Made.

For the information of the many ap-
p~!icants for the lease Of state lands. the
state board of control makes the an
nouncement that all available lands to
which the state was entitled either I'M
der the admission act or as lieu lands in
place Of school sections in the Yellow
stone National park, have all been Sc
lected upon applications made by resi-
dents Of this state to lease the same.
The state office is being deluged by
applications from all over the state for
the lease Of lands, but every available
tract has been allotted.
1t is thought that the establishment
OF forest reserves may some day result
in the award to the state Of additional
lieu lands for the school sections con-
tanned in the reserves. but it may be a
long time before these lands will be-
come available.

The published in The Repub-
lican last week to the effect that E. C.
Harris, late division superintendent of
the Fremont, Elkhorn and Missouri
Valley railroad at Chadron, would sue
coed Larry Malloy as general superin-
tendent Of the Wyoming division Of the
Union Pacific, seems to have been we'll
founded, as the announcement is now
made that the change will take place
on November list. The appointment
was decided on some time ago and a few
days ago Mr.. Malloy was sent for and
was told Of the change when he report
ed at headquarters at Omaha.
The resignation of Superintendent
Harris from the Elkhorn road was made
public about ten days ago. The circu-
lars OF that company said he had resign
ed ito accept service with another COM
pany." Nearly every one in railway
circles then believed that Harris was
to come to the Union Pacific, but Pres
ihNht u VI liz SHlou 1 dCIlC Sdlu he
knew nothing whatever about the
matter"
The Cheyenne Sun, in speaking OF the
change, says:
Larry Malloy is one Of those ster-
ling men who has worked faithfully and
energetically from his early youth and
by his true worth as a man worked
himself up from a brakeman to a gen.
eral superintendent and is generally re-
garded as n Of the best officials on
the Union Pacific system. He entered
the employ of the Union Pacific in 1873
as a brakeman. He was promoted to
freight conductor, and in turn to pas
senger conductor and later as examiner
Of employees on rules and regulations.
He vas 500 promoted to the general
superintendency Of the Wyoming divis-
ion, which position he has held through
several administrations, his ability be-
ing recognized by the foremost railroad
magnates Of the west.
at is plain to be seen that the new
administration intends to change the
officials all along the line. This fact
has been evident for some time.
1.-THE retiring superintendent speaks
very highly Of those who have been his
su%bordinates, viz. Assistant Superin-
tendents Culross. Hay and Baird and his
old friend O'Neill, who was among the
first to resign; also Superintendent
King, the old wal horse, Anderson, and
the clerks in the Office.
Mr.. Malloy is undecided as to his fu-
ture. After a quarter of a century's
hard work. he will utilize the immediate
future in the enjoyment of a well earn
ed rest.
THE new superintendent. Mr.. Harris.
comes to us very highly spoken Of
both by railroad people and civilians.
He is an energetic, hustling young
man. who has made friends wherever
