Express Rates in Nebraska.

Philadelphia Record. The express
companies doing business in Neb1as-
ka have united in a remonstrance
against the enforcement by the State
Railway commission Of the recently
enacted state law cutting their ates
Is per cent. The companies offer,
as a compromise, to make a reduction
OF Is per cent. Whether, under the
terms Of the act. tile commission
will deem itself authorized to accept
the offer appears uncertain, but the
conciliatcry attitude of the CON-
panies attests the propriety of the
legislative action The extortionate
rates charged for express service in
Pennsylvania are quite as burden
some and unnecessary as the Nebras-
ka rates. The greater share OF the
express business ought to be done by
the railroad companies, at far less
cost to shippers and with great ad-
vantage to railroad shareholders.

The telephones OF the state we're

Now the papers are stating that
where a railroad company appoints
several attorneys in M town and all
of them carry passes, the state has
a right to know if these men give
the greater part Of their time to the
business Of the road as the law re-
quires, to make a man eligible to
free transportation. This is a matter
that, like the rat hole in Lincoln's

TOPPED The MARKET AGAIN
1. W. seaman's Angus Cattle Sold
Higher Thursday Than Any
thing Else on.Market.

L. W. Seaman came home from
Chicago Friday evening, having been
down 10 market with a couple CT
carloads of cattle, and he had the
distinction OF again topping the
market With his cattle.
One carload was made up of two
Year-old Angus cattle and it was
with these that Mr.. Seaman swept
the platter good and clean. The
Angus cattle reached the highest
figure Of the day when they sold for
$40 per hundred, which was 40
cents higher than any other cattle
sold for that day. The cattle ave
ragged him s1l2.l Is per head, and they
brought the most OF any carload Of
cattle that has been placed on the
market in some time.
The second carload was made up
of yearling calves OF heifers and
steers, Of a mixed variety, for which
he received 6 80, a figure that was
very satisfactory.
This Is the second time this year
that Mr.. Seaman topped the Chicago
market with his Angus, cattle, hav-
ing gone down in May with an ex-
ce%ptionally fine lot OF ANIMALS that
were taken up Immediately.
MIR. Seaman has been highly sue
cessful With his Angus cattle in the
years that he has been raising them
and be handles them IN such a way
as to bring about the best possible
results. The present car be has
been feeding for the past six months
and gave them a feed Of alfalfa and
ground corn, which in bis estimation
is the best food to top the cattle of
for the market. That be is right in
his Judgment has been proven on
two different occasions, and he has
some Strong competition when lie
goes to Chicago with bis cattle.
That is giving South Dakota a pretty
good reputation to be placed at the
head Of the class on the Chicago
market, but with such cattle as
produced by MI. Seaman the state is
only taking its rightful place in the
stock world. MI. Seaman raises these
cattle on his big stock ranch in the
vicinity OF Running Water and be
has everything equipped to bring
forth tine best there is in his stock.
