Opposed to Liquor

One of the most sweeping Orders
ever issued by a railroad company
in this country concerning the be-
havior and well-being of its employees
became effective June /, along the
entire Southern Pacific system. 1t
forbids the sale of liquor at restau-
rants connected with the depots
where such restaurants are rented
from the railroad companies.
AS nearly every restaurant along
the road is rented from the railroad
company the order has very wide
scope. The main purpose of the IN
novation is to prevent the trainmen
from drinking while on duty. At
the same time the order will cut OIL
a large portion of the revenue of the
railroad company, for at the many
stations along the road rents for res
taurants have largely increased after
the proprietors have obtained IL
censes to sell liquor.

Bad management keeps more peo-
pie in poor circumstances than any
ether one cause. To be successful
one must look ahead and plan ahead
so that when a favorable opportun-
ity presents itself he is ready to take
advantage of it. A little fore
thought will also save much expense
and valuable time. A prudent and
careful man will keep a bottle of
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy in the house, the
shiftless fellow will wait until nee
essity compels it and then ruin his
best horse going for doctor and
have a big doctor bill to pay, besides;
ones pays out % cents, the other is
out a hundred dollars and then won
ders why his neighbor is getting
richer while he is getting poorer.

GREAT FIGHT.
Prior's Forces Did Excellent
Work Yesterday.

Street Commissioner w. S. Prior was
out yesterday morning before the ris-
ing of the sun and took his station at
the city barn to engage every man and
team that hove in sight. A number
showed up and were at once sent out
with gangs to remove the snow from
the heart of the city or break out
country roads for the benefit of people
living on the outskirts. When night
fell the street department had done
great work and cut a big hole in the
snow which covered every street. in
the city. Considering the magnitude of
the task before the street commissioner,
be deserved great praise for the alacri-
ty with which he performed the work.
The force at work yesterday was
larger than on the first day, and a cor
respondingly greater amount of work
was done. There were about 1926 men
in the employ of the street department
