SMALL AMOUNT IN OLD LINE
PItIfuI Minority of Life Insurance a.
Car shops Held In Big
Companies.

Attaches OF the Union Pacific are stin
perplexed, II not annoyed, at the strange
order from e. II. Hartman In New York
calling for a statement of the amount OF
old line insurance each emplOye of the
company carries. Polls to satisfy the de-
mand are still being taken in Omaha and
elsewhere along the road. AT Cheyenne Il
is asserted that recently many employees
OF the Union Pacific forwarded their proxies
TO Thomas w. Lawson and II is feared
knowledge Of this fact has reached and
aroused Mr.. Hartman. who is DESTROYS OF
getting at the exact facts, so he may be
guided in a wholesale decapitation.
The poll Of the employees in the car de-
partment OF the Union Pacific shops in
Omaha shows a pitiful minority OF insur-
ancs in old line companies. The inquiry
developed these facts and figures: $5S4. 900
in Ancient order OF United Workmen:
$4,000, Modern WOodmen OF America: $50,
Co., WOodmen Of the World $4,000. in mis-
cellaneous small companies and 5000 in
old liners
Asked for an explanation Of the insurance
inquiry, General Manager Mohler dis
claimed any knowledge Of IL, saying it
was a matter entirely with Mr.. Hartman

Something like dozen bids were received
for the construction of bridge over the
Pappio creek, near the Oakdale school
house. The bids ranged in price from 1900

them for tabulation. 1t has not been

Still another phase Of the administration
of county finances was thus outlined by a
man who is entirely familiar with the
county system of making contracts and
keeping the books:
Either Dun's or Bradstreet's agency
will tell you that, compared with ten years
ago. the cost Of all supplies, especially
foodstuffs has increased In that time at
least 1914 per cent. Thus II the county
administration ten years ago cost 10000 it
would today cost S2S5.OOO, without allowing
anything at all for the natural growth in
expenditures as population increases or for
the many added expenses saddled onto the
county by the legislature, such as the
juvenile court. The county commissioners
have really made very creditable showing
In the last year all things considered.
