RED CROSS CHRISTMAS STAMPS
Little Souvenirs StnI on Sale and
Are Doing Well in
Omaha.

Mrs. Edholm, who has charge OF the sale
OF the Red Cross Christmas stamps in
~Omaha, reports that the sale so far has
been very encouraging. but that the chief
difficulty seems to be that people do not
know where to obtain them, and inquire
at the postoffice for them. These stamps
cannot be obtained at the postof-
flee, because they are no part Of
the governments business. but they
may be had at any drug store. at
any stationery store. and at any stationery
counter in any department store. When
you mail a letter. step into the nearest
drug store or other place where the Red
Cross stamps are on sale and buy a supply.
The proceeds are devoted to the anti
tuberculosis campaign, and 30 Per cent OF
the total sales In Nebraska are devoted to
the work in Nebraska over 5000 of these
stamps have already been sold In Omaha.

BURT MAY REBUILD ROAD

Expected to Succeed Stickney ms Pres
ident of Great Western.
The appointment OF Horace G. Burt as
one of the receivers Of the Chicago Great
Western is taken as an indication In rail-
road circles that Mi. Burt will become the
president OF that road when 1t is reorgan-
lied. AS president Of the Union Pacific Mr..
Burt made a most ehviable reputation as a
railroad builder, and 1t is generally con-
coded that no one is a better upbuilder of
tho physical condition Of a railroad than he.
1t is recognized In railroad circles that
Mr.. Burt is the representative Of the Eng
lish capitalists who own the majority Of
the stock of the Great Western and as such
is expected by these capitalists to put the
road upon it's feet, There seems to be no
doubt that Mr.. Burt can do this If he 10
given the money. with which to work. In
looking over the properties of the Great
Western which have now come under his
charge Mr.. Burt was in Omaha a short
time ago, but his usual reticence prevailed
and he did not give any intimation as to
what he or the English capitalists expected
to do with the road.
The rumors that the road was for sale
seem to be put at rest by the employment
of Mr.. Burt and Omaha railroad men think
this is an indication that every effort will
be made to put that road upon its feet and

BAIT NOT FULLY SWALLOWED
Appeal from Railway Business As
ISOLATION" Doesn't Stampede.
osTENs1BLE PLEA FOR RAILROADS
some Readers of Letter Sent Out In-
terpret IL as Means OF Getting
Business for Big Sup
ply louise

In face Of the many announcements by
railroad companies that railroad rates must
be advanced and the growing tendency Of
transportation companies to meet every re-
quest for an equalization Of rates by an
advance, business organizations Of Omaha
are receiving many letters from business
organizations in the east begging the
Omaha organizations to help conserve the
interests Of the railways"
One OF these letters was received by or
ganizations in Omaha Tuesday when the
Omaha business men had scarcely recov-
cred from the coup which the railroads
worked on the Nebraska Railway commis-
sion in order to get rates increased for
switching cars between Omaha and Ralston
from about $3.50 per car to a minimum of
$40 per car.
The Nebraska Railway commission had
just realized how the railroads had thrown
a few hands full of mustard powder in
their eyes and announced that they would
reconsider the Ralston rate hearing when
the Railway Business association with
headquarters in New York City, sent this
appeal to Omaha:
We believe that your organization can
plan an important part in bringing about a
permanent and thorough resumption of
prosperity for all our people by fostering
conditions which will restore vitality to the

appeal and, II it meets with your approval,
cause 1t to be laid before your body for
official action. Trusting we may hear from
you favorably at your early convenience, ]
remain, very truly. G. NJ. BASFORD,
Acting Secretary.
Significant Array of Names.
Then follows an appeal from men whose
names are found in almost any guide Ia
manufacturers or sellers Of railway equip
ment, who send out such a letter when the
Missouri river cities are trying to figure
how much the railroads are going to make
as a result OF advances from the Pacific
coast amounting to as much as 20 per CEN
and advances from the Atlantic coast.
The organization sending out the appea
: says 1t is formed ito conserve the interests
u Of the railways of our country and Of tn,

! equipment, contractors in railway c~onstruc

RAILROADS ON RALsToN RATE

show Cause.
The State Railway commission has noti-
fled the railroads to appear January u and
show cause why the rates to Ralston
should not be established on a lower and
different basis than that which now exists.
With the consent of the commission the
rates to Ralston were raised some time
ago to a mileage basis and that new
town was taken from the switching zone
Of Omaha. On complaint of Sinner &
Chase, founders of the town of Ralston,
the case was reopened and the commits
sion visited Omaha asturday to look over
the situation. The notice to the Burling-
ton ana Missouri Pacific is the result of
that visit.

little more influence on them than a

When great magnates tell you that
all that is lacking to a complete res
toration of business 4 confidence they
are mistaken. There must be profit
in Whatever business is being done
and a demand for more business be-
fore confidence can exist. They have

ness precedes confidence. and it must

at that
It might as well be acknowledged
that business recovery will be slower
than was anticipated, and people
would be wise to govern themselves
accordingly We remember that a
year ago everybody set the date for
entire recovery from the then fresh
jar at the turn of the year, or imme-
diately succeeding January 1st. Then
it was postponed in the minds and
on the tongues of men until after
midsummer, then till after the cleo

THE HOUSE OF RIDER,

Herman Ridder is the kind OF treas

He does a good deal more than ao-
knowledge and apply the contributions
of others. He gives handsomely OF
his own. Mr.. Ridder has contributed
$4,000 and each Of his three sons has
piyen $4,000 to the democratic fund
making the neat sum Of $4,000 from
the Rldder family. That is the best
financial demonstration that has been
made on the democratic side thus far.
Mr.. Ridder has contributed the maxi
,num sum which the committee may,
under self imposed rules, receive from
80 contributor. and his sons have
each given within thousand dollars
80 that amount The only other con-
,r,hntion that is comparable with Mr..
p,aaer,s IS that made by Tammany
uan 10 the amount Of $4,000. It is
scarcely likely that the Raiders would
nave given this handsome sum Of
money at the last moment of the cam
naign If they thought it was to go to
waste in a HOPELESS cause.
