The Proper Way Of Doing 1t.

In several Nebraska cities aud towns
the first effective fight ever inaugurated
against the mail order houses OF Chicago
is now in progress. Instead of scolding
the big firms and demanding the aboli-
tiou of the rural mail delivery and ask
ing for restrictive legislation, a few local
merchants are buying liberal spaces in
their home papers for the purpose of
showing the farmers and people that
goods can be purchased at home more
cheaply and satisfactorily than in
Chicago.
The campaign is conducted along def
mite and convincing lines. The Chicago
prices are quoted with freight or express
charges added. Then the merchant tells
what he can do on the same goods with
the privilege Of examination before they
are taken from the store. II all the
Nebraska merchants would adopt this
enlightened and effective policy they
could reduce the mail order shipments
into Nebraska by fifty per cent in less
than five years.--Nincoln, Neb., Journal.

Railroad Officials Here.

The first passenger train TO
reach Condor rolled into town last
Saturday forenoon. The train con-
sisted OF the Pullman parlor car
"0regon" and a diner, the special
of Mr., j. P. 0'Brien, general man
ager Of the Hartman interests IN
Oregon, who was making his first
trip Of inspection over the complet-
ed line of the Columbia River n
Central Oregon Railroad Accom-.
panying Mr., o'Brien were the fol.
lowing officials Of the @. II. & n
Co., II. b, Miller, general freigh:
agent; W, J. Buckley, superintend.
ent; G, w. Boschke, chief engineer;
and J. b Eddy, of the right.of.way
department
Mr. o'Brien aud the other gen.
tlemen were highly pleased with
the appearance of the town and
surrounding country and expressed
themselves as being as anxious to
see regular train service inaugu-
rated over the new line as the peo-
Pile Of Condor can possibly be,
The well at this place, which has
been drilled for the company by
McCachran & Numaker was ac-
cepted while the officials we're here
aud the drilling apparatus will be
moved TO Glenn at once where the
we'll commenced there some time
ago will be completed. 1t is be-
lieved the we'll at this place will
afford plenty Of water for all pur-
poses but it found insufficient it
will be sunk deeper The idea at
this time seems to be TO get water
stations established at all neces.
sary points along the line for the
operation Of regular trains.
When the train came in Mayor
Dunn with the members of the city
council and few other citizens
were on hands TO meet the railroad
officials and extend welcome to
them in the name of the city. AZ
ter looking over the yards and ter
minals Mr., O'Brien aud his party
enjoyed a walk around town, The
use of carriages was rendered the
visitors for this trip and Mayor
Dunn also invited Mr., 0'Bnen and
his party to take a drive of an hour
or so into the country to catch a
glimpse ola few Of Gillian county's
famous wheat fields but both in
vitations were respectfully declined
the first because Mr.. 0'Brien felt
that he needed little exercise and
the second because of lack of time
to look at the country on this trip.
He stated, however. that he ex-
pected to visit Condor again in the
near future when he would arrange
to take the necessary time here to
enjoy the city's hospitality in a
drive around the country. The
party left at 130 for an inspection
of the company's property along
the main line.
