been disturbed at all. Provision is made
for the payment Of the street car fares of
the letter carriers, and this has always
been done None of the Omaha letter car
riers during business hours have ever been
carried free on the street railways. While
they may not pay their individual fares
on each trip, as happens with the ordinary
passenger, their transportation is paid new
ertheless out of the general postoffice funds
as all other transportation service is paid
for. The carriers pay portion Of this
transportation out of their own salaries"
The street railway company has notified
the government that it does not care to
have the contract for hauling the mail
from the Omaha postoffice to the sub
stations or to South Omaha The COM
pany receives but 3 cents a mile for this
service, no matter what the amount Of
mail is. Sometimes the mail from South
Omaha will occupy over half the front
vestibule and for this the company has
been receiving but Is cents for the service.
The distance from the Omaha postoffice
to the stations is just a mile and for haul
ing the mail the company has been re-
ceiving cents a trip. For this they have
to carry several sacks of mail, the regis
tered sack and a man to go with the reg
stered sack, all for cents.

FIVE-CENT FARE FOR FLORENCE
Local Paper and Citizens want n
Single Rate for the
Suburb.

F. d. Nichols, proprietor Of the Florence
Items, has started a crusade in his paper
for a scent street car fare from Omaha 20
Florence. In the last issue Mr.. Nichols
published interviews with a large number
Of the prominent people of Florence and
they were all unanimous for the scent fare.
1--WE think we are as much entitled to
this fare from the street railway company
as is Benson or West Deavenworth," said
Mr.. Nichols. "A scent fare is absolutely
necessary to assure the growth and de-
velopment of Florence. With 1t the prop
erty will increase in value and many de-
sirable home builders will locate there in
preference to any other point Although
the street railway company built this line
reluctantly they have found since building
the line that It is one Of the best paying
investments they have. Florence people
can now ride for cents by buying books,
but what we want is a scent fare so the
people Of Omaha can run up to Florence
and look over the town. The distance is
no greater than many other points to which
the company hauls people for cents and
we can see no reason for the company S
refusing 10 grant this concession, which
we think We are entitled to-"
Mr.. Nichols is making a vigorous fight
for this concession and his paper says It
will stake it's reputation on getting the re-
duction.

cludes the woman. and the selection Of
gowns is also a good index 70 her charac-
ter. It is not always the one that spends
the most on her clothes that Is dressed in
good taste, but rather the one who can
afford so few frocks that she sticks 20
plain modes and colors best suited to her.
The well dressed girl will pay particular
attention to shoes gloves, veils and the
little finishing touches that gives style to a
plain costume II takes considerable time
and thought TO always appear well dressed,
but IL pays, as II costs less in the end and
better results and service Is obtained than

FnIse HaIr and Fads.

Fads, sooner or later. are sure of cap
tivating the feminine world. A good ex-
ample of this is 10 recall the sentiment
that existed against the manufactured curls
when they were first introduced. They
were frightful horrors when worn by 9TH
ers, but now they are the very life Of ones
soul when they cover ones own halo. SO
this goes 10 prove that the woman who
laughs at wigs today may live to wear a
wig tomorrow. There's no telling. But
the ludicrous part Of the adoption Of fads
is that they are not accepted just half
way-they are adopted, heart and soul
why. in this same instance, the false hair
mania has spread like prairie fire. The
world over has been searched for human
hair for the hearts JOY and the heads
ornamentation OF the modern women. Go
into any hair shop and you will see the
candidates for new hair subjecting their
bowed heads TO the sampling process.

PECULIAR ATTITUDE OF THE SENATE.

The House, straight from the people,
will refuse to touch the hybrid Senate
primary bill, which is no primary BILL
though it comedies the breakdown Of the
convention system and purports to give
the people direct nominations.
This very Senate bill shows that the
Senate machine knows what the State
wants. The House knows what the State
wants and by an overwhelming majority
viii give it such a law, unless the Senate
thwarts the popular will.
Does the Senate realize the position
it has taken, conceding the necessity Of
primary reform, but giving a milk-and-
water, half way measure that is neither
which nor t'other? Does it realize the
position it is IN, voting with the machine
leader. Fitzpatrick, and voting against
every member Of its own committee on
elections except Fitzpatrick? How is it
that of the members Of this committee,
to which the primary bill was submitted,
every one except Fitzpatrick voted
Wednesday and yesterday against the
Fitzpatrick mongrel bill? Has the SEN
ate no confidence in its committee? Is
the Senate really prepared to obstrud
public sentiment, to oppose the great
majonty of the House and to repudiate
its own Elections Committee?-Topeka

John D. Rockefeller, IT,, received
shock recently at the meeting Of his Bible
class. The New York World says that
MIR. Rockefeller invited free discussion
on why young men do not go to church
more. The last Of the story is told by
The World IN this way. "A young man
named Smythe, who has been member
OF the class for several months and who
is known to hold soc;aEsic views, was
Immediately on his feet. Addressing
MIR. Rockefeller, he said: 1 want to
warn you in advance. MI. Rockefeller,
that am an outspoken man, and may
say things to offend some people here.
The church has not outgown its useful
ness, and the reason why young men do
not go to church IS because the churches
Of this city are too fashionable and the
young man is expected to pay a certain
sum each Sunday, and if the young man
is poorly dressed he feels that he is look
ed down upon. If the church was run
on the old-dme idea Of one person be-
ing as good as another IN Gods house
you would get the young men. We all
have some pride, and if man is forced
to wear seedy suit of clothes he knows
that his better dressed brother would no,
SIT on the bench beside him in Sunday
school or church. This is one solid rea-
son. A hardwozking man who has little
money cannot stand being preached to
on an empty Stomach. If you gil his
stomach before you preach to him he'll
be more likely to listen to you and will
come again. 1t is all very well to tell
about the glory Of the future life. but if
you help him to get comfort and happi-
ness IN this world he'll appreciate it more
than your promising happiness in the
world to come"
