NO EDITORS THERE.

An editor died, says an anony-
nous writer, and slowly wendod
his way down 10 where he supposed
q warm reception awaited him. The
devil met him and said, 'sFor many
years thou hast borne the blame Of
the bad spelling the printers have
gotten off IN thy paper. Thy paper
has gone for one dollar and also the
dollar has failed to come in. The
printer has bedeviled thee for wages
when thou hadn't . farthing to thy
name. People have taken thy pa
per without paying for it and
cursed thee for not getting out a
better sheet. Thou has been called
a deadbeat by the railroad conduct
ors when thou has shown thy pass
70 their enyious gase. Ali these
wrongs thou hast borne in silence.
Thou shalt never enter here" And
as the editor turns and walks away,
Satan mutters: Heaven is his
home and besides. If l should let
him in here he would have been
iunuing his delinquent subscribers
and thus created discord in my
Merrill (LoDa) Re
cord.

AN UNPARALLELED TIME
RECORD

Was made every day during the
period of the Omaha Exposition BY
the trains of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul Railway on its
Chicago & Omaha Short Line.
Although Its trains hauled from
ten to thirteen vell-filled sleeping
cars and coaches each night, vet
schedule time of arrival at Omaha
and at Chicago was an accomplished
fact-a record to be proud of, and
which has resulted in establishing
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway in the minds of the travel
ing community as the shortest, best
and most reliable route between
Omaha and Chicago and the East.
