UNION PACIFIC EARNINGS BIG
over Eleven Per Cent on Common
stock for First SIX Months of
Fiscal Year-D. ID. Mann OF
Canadian NOrthern9

The latest report IN railroad circles IL
that the Northwestern will extend its
Casper line into the Rout county coal
fields of Colorado, and is now surveying
for a line from Casper to Walcott, where
it will connect with the Saratoga & En-
campment road, a line forty-four miles
long, recently completed by the Pam Wyo-
oming Copper company.
A contract has been let by the Saratoga
& Encampment company for another
twenty-five miles OF track, which will take
it to Whiskey Park, Wyo., near the Colo
rado line. From there but forty miles will
be required to take the line to Steamboat
Springs. the metropolis of Routt county.
1t is rumored that the Northwestern has
already gobbled the -Encampment road and
is building the extensions through the En-
campment road.
The Northwestern hauls it's coal from the
Illinois fields, and from there to Wyoming
is a long haul. up hill most of the way. The
road to Routt county will furnish all the
coal needed n the grade will be slight.
Union Pacific Earnings Are Big.
The Union Pacific has made another re-
markable record by earning lis per cent
on it's common stock during the first six
months Of the present fiscal year. For
this time the surplus applicable, to divi-
dends is approximately $24,&7,30 After
deducting 1906 $50 for six months dividend
on the company's preferred stock there
is a balance earned which is applicable to
common stock dividends amounting to

a new bank which opened in that city only

own statements. they went out on strike
to compel us to recognize their so-called
union and to reinstate a few operators that
we had no use for; and who knows what
next they would have demanded had they
found us willing victims and acceded to
their demands.
And L wish further to state that the
strikers are composed of an element that
we wish to weed out from our factory for
ever. For to most of them striking is
their trade and trouble making the means
of their livelihood. They never stay in
one place, as l have stated before, but
shift from place to place and bring their
radical ideas wherever they go. We do
not want any of them back again. and we
wish the public to Judge whether 1t Is
right or even lawful of them to force
themselves upon us and to compel us to
take them back again to work when we
are securing peaceful and law-abidpg citl-
zens to take their places.

Memento of Lincoln.

OMAHA, Feb. Ito the Editor of The
Bee: Noticing In The Evening Bee of this
date an article to the effect that Mrs.
Lena Hanson of this city was the possessor
of an original copy of the New York
Herald detailing the assassination and
death of President Lincoln, brought to my
mind a fact which l had almost forgotten,
to the effect that / am the possessor of
a copy Of the New York Weekly
Tribune as OF date April 81, 1856. This was
received by myself from my grandfather,
who was a regular subscriber to the paper
at the time, and II bears the label, having
his name on 1t as papers of this day do.
The paper is printed with heavy black
column rules, and is quite an interesting
relic, it being just one week later than the
assassination and details many interest
ing facts of a historical nature.
Another interesting paper to the writer
and possibly to many of the older citizens
of our city, which L found and had almost
forgotten 1 had. is an original number Of
the Omaha Excelsior, bearing date of July,
1876. A quotation from the head of the
editorial page may not be undressing

The paper is printed with blue ink for
the type and red horizontal and vertical
rules, demonstrating the patriotism of the
then youthful editor. thought this might
be OF interest. as the Excelsior is still regu-
larry issued and the present editor and one
OF our foremost citizens and churchmen
has long since abandoned the youthful
name Of "Clemie' for the more dlgnified
one Of Clement Chase.
Both Of the above mentioned papers are
quite interesting to the writer, and 1 am
glad to be the possessor of them.

KEARNEY, Neb., Feb. 6.-To the Editor
OF The Bee; How l came TO be there l
cannot explain. but I found myself some
how at the state capitol, in the hall where
our astute law-makers spend some hours
each day In frantic effort to save the coun-
try and the commonwealth. The scene was
for the moment rather dull and common
place, mere routine work, and 1 must have
dozed AS 1 leaned idly back in my seat.
Suddenly l awoke with a start and began
to take notice. Some member was making
a speech. He spoke loudly. earnestly and
with great fervor, while the house listened
In awed silence. 1t might have been Taylor
OF Custer. but as to that l cannot say, but
whoever he was he spoke with that indom-
table courage which has made heroes and
martyrs in all ages.
"Gentlemen," he said, Il must protest In
the name of the people of our fair state
against the tendency you have so far shown
to truckle TO one man in all your legislative
efforts, and that man not even a member
Of this body, l must warn you against this
un-American state of things. Are we Ro-
mans and this man our Caesar? Are we
slaves ?'-and here the speaker threw an
attitude-"ATe we slaves and Is he our mas
ter? Perish the thought! The only master
a freeborn citizen OF this republic should
acknowledge Is the Almighty and the peo-
pie THE speaker said 'peepul,' but let that
pass.
Now then, here is a man who is no
doubt a bright and shining light in the
democratic party. but Is he'll ask you in
all candor-is he the whole thing? Is he
II, in fact? The election. returns OF last
fall did not seem to indicate that he is,
and / confess TO myself that l cannot see
why this body cannot pass a law of any
kind. unless II Is some trifllng thing like
a bill regulating the lengths OF bed sheets,
or whether . shirtwsist should nave but

down on Bonded knee TO this one man and

fact remains that the earnings are now

AStyle Compass

Before the invention OF the com
pass, ancient mariners had various
methods of determining the right
course to pursue in steering their
in their way. yet just when they were
most desperately needed something
was sure to occur which rendered
them Intellectual, so that the ship was
often falsely guided far from its in
tended course. The winds, the fog,
the clouds or the temperature might
any one of them bring the mariners
laborious calculations to naught.
Then came the wonderful Mariners
Compass-correct any time and every
time !
And does not the stylish woman
stand In need of a compass in these
days when changing modes, shifting
shades and questionable qualities on
front her on every side, with a whirl-
wind of confusing, misleading prices
flying in her face at every turn, and
a mirage of impossible values paint
ed in glowing colors to relude her in
to the belief hat she can find correct
STYLES and qualities every day in the
year at half or less than half their
real worth?
The compass of the Economist
points unerringly to the best styles,
the highest qualities and the finest
workmanship the country affords. If
an opportunity occurs by which they
can offer the public cut prices With.
out veering from this straight course,
they do it. Having expert buyers in
New York City, who know every
twist and turn of the market, they
take instant advantage of any price
concession which can be secured with
out sacrificing style or quality.
Is not an accurate dependable
style Compass OF this character a pos
tive necessity to the modern woman
Of fashion?
