DON'T CHANGE MANAGERS.

under democratic administrations, it
would seem an insult to American
intelligence to doubt the result of the

is TO COUNTY ROADS

LAST weeks Herald contained a
letter from |. NJ. CONFESS advocating
a return to the district method OF
making and keeping in repair county
roads.
During the period of district road
supervision several county roads were
established but not plated correctly,
so, as has been discovered lately, the
road from Walcott to Encampment is
about the only legal road in this sec
ton of the county.
Mr.. CONFESS is in error when he
says the roads and bridges are retro
grading under the present method of
keeping them in repair.
For the amount Of traffic over them
the roads and bridges are in
much better condition than ever be-
fore, and more work and money has
been expended this year than in pre-
vious years, probably not in Mr.. Con.
ness section, but where it was most
needed.
The county commissioners are en-
deavoring to establish new roads but
the amount of funds available for
road work are inadequate for so large
Il county, and when the Ianchmen
hold the county up for damages in
excess of the amount of money nee
essary to build the road, the ranch
men and not the county are to blame
for the non-construction Of roads.
If county roads are wanted let the
sections benefited by them show
a disposition to aid in their construc.
tion so far as right of way is concern
ed, at least, and the roads will be put
in and well taken care of.

WEEKLY STOCK YARDS LETTER
Strike and Stock Sold for What
Can be Obtained.

South Omaha, July 2S.-Since
the last correspondence one strike
in all of the packing house centers
has been ended and another begun.
The second strike which is now
pending, is of a much more seri-
character than the first and it
is difficult to tell when it will be
ended.
In consequence of the present
situation shippers are holding off
their stock, fearing it will be tied
up at the various markets and eat
Its head off while awaiting the end
af the strike.
However, the packers are secur-
ing considerable numbers of men
to take the places of the strikers
and while it would be foolhardy
to say that there will be no inter
ruption to business. it may safely
be said that a sufficient force of
employees will be maintaintained
to handle the small shipments of
stock sent in from nearby points.
The men at South Omaha all
agree that they have no cause OF
complaint and are merely ordered
out because of the strike at Chica-
go and Kansas City. AS to wheth-
or or not a real grievance exists nc
one here can say. 1t is only def,
initely known that in South Oma.
ha the scale demanded by the
Chicago employees has been in eff
feet, the South Omaha men receiv-
ing two cents an hour more than
those at Chicago. This makes
the South Omaha strike purely one
of sympathy, and because no rea.
son for dissatisfaction existed here
the Omaha and South Omaha pub.
lie are already prejudiced against
the stikers.
1t would be useless to quote
market prices this week, because
prices are whatever can be obtain
by selling to competing buyers.
The greatest fear is that whei
the strike does end there will b,
such a rush of stock to all market,
as to break prices to pieces, il
which case they will be raised will
difficulty to their level at the be
ginning of the strike.
Shippers are urged TO pos
themselves thoroughly on strik'
conditions at the markets befor,
consigning stock, as all consign
ments will be subject to delays in
cident to the existence of thu
strike.
