Discussing the European tipping habit,
Hermann S. Fink. of Dresden, Germany,
who IS at the Arlington. said that al
though on most railways and in many
hotels notices are posted threatening with
fine or dismissal any OF the company's
servants who accept a gratuity. the men
are encouraged by the officials to receive
tips. Directors and superintendent OF
railways have been known to give tips.
just as hotel proprietors, when travelling,
tip walters and ehambermaids, and every
other class Of emPloye.
Without the present system os tipping.
hotels and railroads would have to pay
higher wages. Hence their managers can
never be depended upon to take any
whole hearted steps 70 check the evil.
An Englishman told me he knew many
men at home who regularly each year
refuse invitations to shoot simply because
they either cannot afford or do not feel
inclined 70 spend from SIS 10 $50 in tips,
In addition TO their fares, on country
house visit lasting from three to six days.
and these men are bachelors Regardless
Of the fact that a woman takes her own
maid and extracts service from nobody
else az the end Of the visit a half dozen
housemaids and the like appear 10 have
been overworked by the mere fact Of her
presence"

You can say for me that our district

will be placed in the hands OF Victor Will
son of Stromsburg. who made the big
speech for the bill in the house and caused
its resurrection.
One of those who had much to do with
the passage Of the bill made this remark:
"~Shallenberger is a dead one. Had he
vetoed II he would be a dead one. We
knew that all the time. But 1t will not
hurt the party. We will simply nominate
Victor Wilson and he will be elected
This remark was made a few moments
after Governor S~hallenberger had signed
the bill.
Continuing, the man said:
Wilson has the strongest following of
any man in the state in the democratic
party. He is a Swede and he will get
every Swede vote in Nebraska, which gives
him about 1900 votes to start with"
Should the friends whom the governor
has slapped in the face make a big fight
over his nomination then Wilson becomes
the candidate of the temperance faction of
the party and the governor will be left to
hustle for himself.
