GREAT LOCOMOTIVES ARRIVE
Four of the Largest Size Made Are Put on
Burlington.
SIXTEEN MORE TO COME FOR SAME ROAD
Each of New Engines Has Total
weight, Counting Tender, of over
Two and Fifty
Thousand Pounds.

Four OF the largest size locomotives made
came into Omaha yesterday. They are
the property Of the Burlington, the first in
stallment OF a consignment of twenty which
have recently been completed in the east.
The other engines are to come as they can
be released by the makers and put into use
without delay. The need for them is i'm
p~erative. The Burlington, like every other
growing railroad in the country, has been
In dire straits for motive power for many
months. Its steadily increasing freight and
passenger traffic has long ago imposed Inn
possible tasks upon the normal resources.
These engines. while they could have been
used to great advantage months ago, yet
come in the nick of time, for the avalanche
Of grain transportation is still in the flu
ture.
Each Of the new engines pulls down a
total weight, counting the tender, Of 25s,-
$50 pounds. The drive wheel is OF the
s4-inch standard and there are 5 1850
pounds on the drivers. The weight of the
tender, loaded, is 80, 400.
mparis with old Engines,
These figures show a mammoth structure.
Some Of the heavy engines now in use by
the Burlington weigh In the neighborhood
Of 1855, 900 pounds, so It can be seen what a
inference IN the capacity Inere Is between
the old and new locomotives.
The rule now is with all roads to in
crease the engine capacity. and with many
to reduce the number Of engines. As
shown by the annual report of the Union
Pacific that road reduced its number of
engines during the fiscal year ended June
80, 1902, about 5h per cent and at the
same time increased its aggregate motive
power by 9h per cent.
These facts account in a measure, II not
entirely, for the general demand among en-
ginemen for more wages. With the enor-
nous increase Of engine power comes to
them more arduous tasks and for this they
naturally want more pay. But one of the
worst features from the trainmen's stand
point is that It means the material reduce
ton of train crews. Larger engines will
haul larger trains and fewer trains will re-
quire fewer train crews.

sands in TaXeH.

The committee of fifteen appointed a year
ago to arrange for the consolidation of the
cities Of Omaha and South Omaha will meet
Monday to consider a bill prepared with
this end in view. A member of the com.
mittee said:
THE matter of consolidating Omaha and
a portion Of Douglas county surrounding 1t,
with permission for South Omaha and Flor
ence to become a part Of Omaha IL they so
elect, has attracted considerable attention
at intervals during the last two years, and
during the latter part Of last summer at a
mass meeting called by the Omaha Real
Estate exchange in the council chamber for
the purpose of discussing the advisability
OF consolidating the two governments and
thus curtailing expenses, a committee was
appointed to ascertain and report, first,
whether 1t was necessary to have a consti-
tutional amendment before such consolida-
ton could be brought about, and conse-
q~uently to advise sLch a plan as would best
secure such consolidation. Economy and
home rule were the watchwords Much con-
sideration and investigation was the result,
and Mr.. Green, as chairman of the commit
tee appointed at the mass meeting and as
representing the Omaha Real Estate eX-
change on the committee, has been ~untiring
in his zeal and has devoted much time to
the investigation of similar plans of con-
solidation in other localities, and as a re-
suit OF sis investigation he has formulated
a plan of consolidation in the shape OF a
bill, to be submitted TO the legislature for
that purpose, which he will submit at a
meeting of the committee to be held Mon
day noon at the Commercial club rooms.
He has notified the members Of the com
mittee OF this meeting and he earnestly de-
sires every member to be present at that
time"

The Green Forest tribune., 1903-07-04

upon me of presenting these diplomas to you this evening. After having listened to profound words of council and wisdom, and, after having heard your new and beautiful views of life and suc- cess, 1 feel that there is prob- ably not much that can say. With your kind permission, how ever, l shall try to give you a few of my views on the great theme of Life as 1 have found it. You, tonight, are standing on the
 threshold of life, as you your
 selves have admitted this evening not less than 587 times, if have counted correctly. have greatly enjoyed listening to your laven- der-colored essays and your orations with perfumery on them, and, l persume, as you sit here with your new shoes on and gaze out upon life as far as the eye can reach, you imagine that it will be easy to conquer, and that it will all be more or less of a tinted dream. Life is not altogether one grand, ceaseless, free for-al open air picnic, with a free bus going right out to the grounds, nor is it made up altogether of moist mildewed gloom. Life is a mixture of sunshine and shad- ow, pleasure and pain, poetry and poll tax, matrimony and measles, pride and porous plasters. The babe in the cradle to-day kicks up it's heels and laughs and tries to put one foot in it's mouth and has a grand old time, but to night 1t will be filled with sorrow and tlncture of paregoric. A boy gets a licking and a piece of pie and goes to bed to dream of Santa Claus and Satan. Man stands on the proudest heights of his glory with an onion poultice on his chest, and full many poet wears a wreath of laurel and a liverpad.
 "Once, years ago, 1 stood where you stand tonight. Ah! l remember how stood up in my new pants that struck me just around the shoe tops and told a vast and eager audience how to conquer success. ButI can see 1t now in d somewhat different light. 1 can see now that it is pretty hard for boy with q but ton-hole bouquet and boil on the back of his neck to step right out and cause much of all uproar
The Green Forest tribune., 1903-07-04

and commotion in the great,
 waiting world. To-nightyou will take your dear little essay, with it's wonderful suggestions for haltering success, and you will fold it up and tie pretty double-
 bow knot around it's waist and lay it away in a quiet place and
 sprinkle sachet powder on it, and then, to- morrow, you will start out into the world. Then, some day, after you have had few hand to- hand scuffles with the world, in which you have not succeeded in doing any great and irreparable damage to the world, you will get out your cream -col- ored essay and read it all over in a quiet, subdued tone of voice and then you will note, as have
 been observing, that it is one thing to sit here on this rostrum, surrounded by rose- e-geraniums and members of the faculty, and make plans with soft, oriental fringe on them, but it is quite another thing to step forth into the world and carry them out. "
