The railroads, we may grant, have
done for Nebraska what it has paid
them to do. But that is not all of
it, for the interests of the railroads
and Nebraska are one, mutual and
interdependent. And it is doubtful
if any state has had more consistent
cooperation from its railroads in the
varied enterprises for it's upbuilding
than has Nebraska. This may be
said without any peril for the facts,
or the fear of falling into the hack
neyed habit of the publicity agent.
Spend Thousands to Expoit State
Thousands of dollars year these
railroads expend in exploiting Me-
braska and it's resources abroad.
They do this by various modern
Omaha daily bee., 1912-10-20

methods of publicity, always seeking
the channels of freest and furtherest
distribution, engaging skilled men
for the work. They stand out on
the frontier beckoning new people to
the state, encouraging them by legit-
innate means, which run no risk of a
dangerous reaction afterward.
This spirit of interdependence be-
tween the welfare of the state and
the railroads manifests itself whole
somely in all the relations, even po-
litical. There was time when this
was not so much the case as to po-
litical conditions, but the railroads
came wisely to the conclusion
through the ordeal of bitter expert
ences that the only safe and sound
policy for them to pursue was the
one that did away with acrimony and
parsimony and cultivated popular

Iu6 EASTERN anu WSSLCrH
ReMSSSN links of the first transcon-
- tinental railroad in Amer
lea was driven at Promontory Point,
Utah, May 10, 1869.
That marked the completion of
the Union Pacific and formed the
coast outlet to the great path Of
progress and civilization across the
rolling prairies of Nebraska. That
pathway was begun when the first
excavation for the Union Pacific was
made in Omaha in December, 1868.
But in November, 1857, the North
western had drawn its lines east to
the Missouri river, so that the star
of empire had already westward
taken its flight over that route from
Chicago.
And since these pioneers made
their advent the following roads
have come to promote the progress
and development of Nebraska:
The Burlington, Missouri Pacific,
Wabash, Illinois Central, Rock Is
land, Milwaukee, Minneapolis &
Omaha (part of the Northwestern
SYSTEM, st. Joseph & Grand Island
and Great Western.
Next to Farming i'm Importance
These roads represent a combined
reproduction valuation of not less
than $500, 900, 900; that is, their
property within Nebraska. They op-
crate more than 5000 miles of lines
in this state, employing more than
10000 men and women. How many
families and individuals do they sup
port? What other single industry
in the state, save farming, ap-
proaches the economic importance of
railroads?
In these trite facts and figures is
the obvious answer to our question.
What the railroads have done for
Nebraska is what no other factor in
\ the business life of Nebraska has
Ndone. Oh, but it may be said, as,
indeed, it was said to me by a rail-
eoad man, himself, "the railroads
Rave done for Nebraska what it has
Mid them to do and nothing more. -
SUR friend Is entirely too modest.
gshe facts in the case entitle him to
Il much better claim.
Certainly and fortunately, the rail-
toad business is not philanthropy,
not charity. If it were Nebraska
would not today be criss-crossed by
the best of modern railroads; 1t
would not be nearly as far advanced

opment as it is; it would lack much

The Value of Co-Operation
The farmers Of Nebraska realize
the value of railroad cooperation.
This is a state of fertile soil and
good climate, tut up to few years
ago our farms were not producing
upon very high grade of efficiency.
The farmers and their city neighbors
became aroused to this and so did
the railroads; in fact, they had a
good deal to do with the arousing.
All saw that with better methods
two blades Of grass might be made
to grow where but one grew before,
applying the principle to live stock
as we'll.
Then came the era of the educa-
tional train. Railroads employed
scientific men who knew how to
tickle the soil and get more out Of 1t.
They equipped their trains, placed
these scientists in charge of them,
sent them over their lines in Ne
braska preaching the propaganda of
intensive agriculture. They kept
this up; they did not go at it spas
medically, but methodically; they
brought results; results measured,
not by dollars, but millions of dol
lars: they had helped farmers to help
themselves to increase the efficiency
of their labors and their farms.
Help in Solving Problems of State

agricultural and live stock state, the
railroads long ago engaged, SO to

They even experimental, themselves,

way have had potent part In work

new state, the bud of whose bloom is
hardly more than bursting into Wig

Nebraska's Importance in manufac-

roads have had large hand. Today

Since we have parted, Peggy.

When | think on the charming grace
OF the girl l left behind me.
The hours l remember well,
When next to seeing moved me,
The burning flames my heart doth tell,
Since first she owned she loved me.
In search of some one fair and gay,
Several doth remind me;

Though | left her far behind me.
The bees shall lavish, make no store
And the dove become a ranger,
The fallen water cease to roar
Before I'll ever change her.
