The jacobson wye Law"
Word for Word, Is Placed
in the Famous 'Sher.
man Act
PRAISE FOR MADISON MAN
Senator Deliver OF Iewa Says Mimae-
sofa Resnblicaa Nominee fer
Governor Is an Advanced
Thinker.

Hon. J. F. Jacobson, the Repub-
lican nominee for governor, is not
only man rightly famed for his
rugged integrity and worth. but
in all justice must be accredited
rs a deep and advanced Thinker; :
a man whose ideas and plans for
the public veal have always been
many years ahead of his day
Mr.. Jacobson is SO described
by no less a parsonage than the
famous orator, Senator ]. P. Dol
liver of Iowa. This statement
and the proof were presented by
Senator Dolliver before vast
audience in Minneapolis recently.
He told how the United States
congress had to come to Mime
sofa, to the modest but bralny
farm machinery merchant OF
Madison, to get for federal enact
ment what has for years in Min
nesota been known as the : Jacob-
son Wye law
The Jacobson Wye law was
the pioneer statute in the United
States to establish the great
precedent for the people that a
railroad can be compelled to make
a connection with other roads at
interesting stations, and that o
joint rate on freight may be estab-
lished therefore by law. '
Not only did congress come to
Mr.. Jacobson for his idea ON this
subject, but they found he had
drawn the Minnesota law so per-
fectly that the jacobson Wye
law of Minnesota was copied,
word for word, into the congress
sional act known as the Sherman
law, and is now one Of the strong
est and most valuable sections OF
that great act.
Every great reform always
meets with great opposition. AM
SO it was that Mr. Jacobson had
to wage a great legislative battle
to get his Wye bill passed by the
legislature. This was
in 1895. Two years later, rcee6-
nizing defects in the original
draft, he had the law amended in
to its present form, and it has
since proved great boon for tie
public.
The railroads refused at first
to comply with this law, and
Mr.. Jacobson brought a test,
case before the board of rail-
road and warehouse commits
sioners. He prepared the case,
presented the evidence and made
the argument before the board,
which rendered decision sus-
tanning him in every point Of
The companies ap-
pealed the case on points of law
to the district court, and it was
tried before Judge Powers of the
Twelfth district, who rendered an
elaborate decision sustaining the
commissioners. 1t was then taken
10 the supreme court of Mime
sofa, which upheld Judge Powers.
From there it was carried to the
supreme court of the United
States, which confirmed the Min
1esota court, and the "Gentleman
rom Lac qui Parle' had the sat
sfaction of having the law he in
and was instrumental
n passing, declared CONSTITUTIONS
Il by the highest court in ths
and.
This state law has been of in
sstimable value and convenience
@ farmers and other shippers
throughout the state. AS included
n the Sherman law, it has also
become of tremendous value to
shippers all over the country.
And these thousands of people
hus convenienced have to thank

STATION MASTER
AT THE JUNCTION.
Next Monday Clyde Hayes Goes
on Duty for the Rush.

Commencing Monday and continu-
ing through the Rosebud rush, the
Northwestern will employ a station
master at the Junction depot. His
duties will principally be to call
trains and direct travellers to their
proper trains.
The station master will be Clyde
Hayes, brakeman on the Council
Bluffs-Norfolk run. This is a happy
selection in the vocal line, for there
is probably no one in the Northwest
ern train service who is as we'll quail
fled for the place. Mr.. Hayes has a
voice of megaphone power, loud, dis
tinct and far reaching. His ordinary
tone of voice is as loud as most peo-
pies yelling. .5-
The employment of a caller at the
Junction will be to the public's ad-
vantage. There is endless confusion
at the Northwestern depot over train
movements at the Junction, which a
caller can simplify. Sometimes north
and west bound trains leave on one
track, and again on another For ex-
ample, the eastbound Deadwood train,
due at 1880 p. m, arrived yesterday
nearly two hours late. In conse-
quence, the Rosebud train, which
usually leaves the depot on the south
track, left yesterday on the north
track
The employment of station mas
ter will save Ticket Agent Beymer a
lot OF question answering. If he sold
as many tickets as ne answers ques-
tons over the arrival and departure
of trains, the Northwestern would get
rich at the Norfolk Junction alone
People who buy tickets at the juno
ton ask the ticket agent what time
their trains go and on what track,
and then in few minutes return and
repeat the same question. Besides
this, Mr., Beymer has to give innumer-
able directions to people holding
through tickets, who change trains at
the Junction.
The Rosebud trains were crowded
yesterday and today, especially the
smoking cars in which passengers
had to stand

sending out a special train to carry
passengers to Omaha for eastern con.
