Who Is TO Blame?

Through the late arrival of trains
on the local branch during the holi-
days, the Omaha Co., and even the
train crew themselves, have come in
for some scathing abuse. But stop
a moment to think and you may find
that you, yourself, have contributed
to this delay. Of course, no think
ing person can blame the train crew
that is all nonsense, for there is no
one, posi- bly,, more anxious to com
plete the run on time than one OF
them, nor can blame be attached to
the operation Of this branch, as late
trains on the main line force the To-
cal to wait. One of the causes for
delay on the long hauls is the rush of
holiday mail, baggage and express
in fact, it is the chief reason-so ii
you were among those who failed to
heed the request to mail your holi-
day packages early' you have no
right to complain of the late trains,
for you, with thousands Of others,
contributed your mite toward this
annoying delay.
