No dissatisfaction was expressed about
the Grain exchange Saturday over the an
nouncement Of the Union Pacific thai It
would pay an elevation allowance of ~
cents per 100 pounds on grain transferred at
the Omaha elevators. Nels B. Updike,
whose elevators are OH the Northwestern
and the Burlington. said there was no rea-
son for any kick among the grain men
until it was seen what the other roads
would do. II the Union Pacific allowed
for transfer and the other roads didn't he
said, the elevators on other roads at COM
peting points would be at a disadvantage.
He thought II probable the other roads
would follow the Union Pacific.
Grain men who have elevators along the
Union Pacific, as we'll as the Grain ex-
change in general. are well pleased with
the announcement, because all dealers along
the road are now plainly on an equal basis.
The suggestion is made that other roads
may try to pay an elevator allowance at
Chicago instead OF Omaha but In that
case the aid of the courts could be invoked

GRAIN CROP FOR THIS YEAR
Estimated Yields in Various Counties
of Nebraska Prepared by the
Union Pacific,

The passenger department of the Union
Pacific has prepared a crop report estimate
for June OF the principal crop producing
counties Of the state. The acreage Of the
various crops is not yet available, 80 the
yields per acre only are given. From the
yields It is estimated the total wheat crop
this year will approximate ss,oOo,0OO bushels,
rye 100000 bushels oats b0OoO,OOO bushels.
The corn crop promises better at this time
than at the same time last year and the
alfalfa crop probably will surpass last
years in both quality and quantity. The
report was made up just after the rains Of
June II and Is, and It may be that the re-
port for July will show material changes
At that time the Union Pacific will give tine
yields from each county as the assessors re-
turns on the acreage will be available.

What Is a Tonic?

What Is a Tonic?
A tonic is q medicine that increases the
appetite, increases the digestion. increases
the power Of the system to Rssimllate and
Appropriate food.
This is the action OF all true tonics
To Be sure there are tonies that are
simply stimuiants They irritate the
stomach and an unnatural craving for
food Is excited. This class of medicines
should be elassed as stimulants rather than
tonics.
A tonic, as above stated, dnickens all
the functions Of digestion. II invigorates
the body BY furnishing more force for the
body.
The action of true tonics is not tenn
porary, but lasting.
The lassitude which warm weather brings
IL due to an under-supply OF nutrition for
the body. Plenty OF food may be on the
table, but the food Is not relished, or else
IL not digested.
Slight catarrhal arrangements OF the
stomach and bowels will 90 effectualiy in
terfere with digestion as to produce great
depression Of the system.

wvANN RETURNS FROM CHICAGO VISIT
Illinois Central and Northwestern
OmciaIs Promise to DO what
They Can for Omaha
with Frisco.

Secretary McVann of the Omaha Grain
exchange has returned from Chicago
where he went to see the officials OF the
Frisco, as we'll as those Of other roads,
on the subject of the new tariff.
Il had a talk with the officials OF the
Illinois Central and the Northwestern"
said Mr.. MoVann. '"rhey told me they
thought they could induce Vice President
Biddle of the Frisco to reconsider his
action and leave the tariff as it has BEEN
by showing him how the new system Will
demoralize freight rates. They said no
radical action would be taken by the other
roads until Mr.. Biddle is given a chance
to make what they call final" decision
1t is TO be hoped that their influence Will
be strong enough on Mr.. Biddle to caus'
him to abolish the new tariff"
The feeling is general among the grain
shippers that II the Frisco cannot be in
duced to withdraw its rate, the Illinois
Central should publish at once pro-
portional rate OF 10 cents per 100 pounds
on corn from Omaha to Memphis In the
general adjustment of grain rates to which
all the Omaha and Kansas City lines have
been committed, the agreed difference
between Omaha and Kansas City on
Memphis business is cent per 100 pounds,
but the action of the Frisco widens this
difference to cents, and in order 70 main
tain the proper difference, there is feel
ing the Illinois Central ought to make the
10 cent rate.
II is true the Rock Island has line

the same control as the Frisco, IL would
