LAND SEEKERS ARRIVE
FROM NEBRASKA POINT

@. w. Olsen, the 'and mai
from Harrington, Neb., arrived
in this city Wednesday morning
with party of seven and seek
ers and is spending a few days
showing the mer the country
surrounding this city. Mr.. Olsen
called in at the Herald office
while here and stated that the
men were well p eased with the
country and that he would close
several deals before going back.
On being asked what he thot
of the crop conditions. Mr.. Olsen
stated that he cou d ask for no
better time to bring IN his men
than at the present time. when
rumors were current that the
crops around Lennon we're in
bad shape. He states that the
men who came out were very
pessimistic about the country
until they had saw it and then
they were very much surprised.
Mr.. Olsen says that the crops
here are the best of any point
that he had visited in South or
North Dakota.
Some time ago Mr.. Olsen call
ed in at the Herald office and Sc
cured some cuts of crops which
he is using in connection with
aivcltisil. i. in the pape.'s .'' I
east ard he is having many -
quiries. He gives free transpor-
tation to Lennon and in this
way shows that he has un United
faith in his proposition and that
he feels that if he can show the
goods he will make sales.

it and were paid for printing
big and little papers have had
it.
The raj roads have never
taken the public into
their confidence as to how they
arrive at this figure. They mere
W state it as a fact. And the
public would do well to accept
such facts only after careA
investigation.
Our guess on the matter is,
and it is probably what the
roads have done in estimating
that it would cost hundred
dollars year IN additional
wages. is to assume that the
mems demands would be app led
to SERVICE CONDITIONS AS
THEY EXIST AT THE PRES
ENT MOMENT. In other words,
where men are now wo king
ten, eleven, twelve and four
teen hours or more a day. the
railroad gentlemen are assum-
ing that IF such schedules are
continued, the new demands cal
ing for punitive overtime pay
ments, would increase wa~es bv
some amount. This, Of course j.
absurd. What the roads would
p roceed to do Immediately
would be to rearrange their
schedules so as to make the runs
as nearly as possib e on the
eight-hour basis.
According to the sworn state
ment of the Western railroads
themselves in the recent arbl-
tration case, slightly less than
half of the freight traffic Of the
west now moves within an eight
hour day. These raj road exhib-
its showed that the average
time of seventy-eight per cent
of through or irregular freight
traffic on all roads west of the
Mississippi, in October, 1913,
moving between terminals l12
miles apart was eight hours
and twenty-four minutes. This
means 100 miles in seven hours
and thirty minutes. Therefore,
on neary four-fifths of this
through or irregular freight
traffice, the adoption of the s.
hour day would mean NO addi-
tional outlay for wages. On on
ly one-f9fth of this class Of traf-
fic would additiona' outlay be
necessary, and would only be SO.

from a new angle. the raj road
men are already rolling in
wealth. The average wage for
trainmen is S1,O23, and for en-
gineers $1,771 per annum."
Even if this were true, the *
nlficance of it is not apparent
These men are engaged in the
most hazardous and arduous la
Dor; they must be experienced
high grade men. An average
wage of 81 .O32 and $l,77l is by
no means too high2 But the
statement is not true Glance
at the fact a moment The ex-
isting scae between the Train
mems brotherhood and the rail
roads show that the average
wage for trainmen in eastern
territory is $2.67 per day; in
western territory So IS per day;
in southern territory $275 per
dam. This is an average daily
wage of $2.73 and 1-3 or on the
basis of a ten-hour day 1927

the railroad figures of ST O23
per annum for trainmen IS cor
rect. If you will take the trou-
BILE to divide twenty-seven
cents, the hourly average rate.
into S1,O23 you viii find that
the trainmen (accordIng to the
railroads) work 3,7SS hours per
annum. At the rates OF ten
hours per day, this IS 31S days
out of 365. In other words IN
order to make $1,023 per an
mum the trainmen, on the aver
age, would have to work ten and
one-half hours every day IN the
year, Sundays included, with
the exception of four days. The
facts that this average IS too
high, and is based on figures

Commission rejected as MIS-
leading and which the staticlans

INTERESTING LETTER
FROM MILTON EDDY

and Mrs. Eddv' the ne "iu 10 e
.b,ed this week to publish .
very interesting letter from
Milton Eddy, who is now serving
his country with Co.: K, S. D. N.
e and the Mexican border. The
Hera d would like very much to
receive other like letters from
the bows on the border and would
like TO receive letters from the
bovs of Co X telling of the con-
d;t;ons and how they ike their
border duties.
San Benito, Tex,
Aug. 10, 1916.
Dearest Mother
Received your letter today,
and was sure glad to get it and
TO hear all are we'll at home and
lennon.
We are camping right in the
heart of the Mercedes Valley, in
the town of San Benito, whose
population is about $500, Two
thirds of these are Mexicans and
they are real friendly with us.
am sure you would like the
climate here, as a nice gulf
breeze b ows over the camp. 1t
is not nearly as hot as it was in
South Dakota.
We are going to have a fine
camp when we get all fixed up.
We have our tents all ditched
for rain now-and that is fine
warm shower every day--it is
is raining now, but this rain ne.-
er hurts anybody. Next we build
a mess hall anil floor our tents.
Our tents viii be screened also
and we will have cots to sleep
on. Gee, it's great! We are GER
tainly treated fine and nobody
has a cause for any complaint.
There is not a regiment that
has better set Of officers than
ours. Our company officers
cant be beat. There is a whole
brigade here; three regiments,
Ok ahoma, Louisiana and South
Dakota, also four companies of
regulars. They sure are . fine
bunch of clean, strong built men.
They are called out quite often.
Col. Bu lard is in command of
the brigade and he is q fine SOL
der There is q special train
kept here all the time for the
regulars, We are camped six
miles from the border and 20
mi eS from the Gulf. Every
night thee is a searchligi,t s.g-
nal flashed on the sky, which
means All quiet along the
border"
Tarantulas are few and far be-
tween. There are supposed
to be centipedes here, but we
have not found any. Scorpions
are common and their sting is
IKE that of bee, but if we
touch 1t with iodine it does not
hurt at all. At the most it only
smarts about a half hour. Some
fattlesnakes are to be found if
you care to hunt for them. A
few have been XII led in camp.
lhey are like the Mexicans-
scared to death of us.
We had a fine trip down here
ana were treated fine along the
me At Enid, Tex, the Red
Cross association treated US to a
line lunch. We were hiked
afond Ft. Worth for a day and

"atermelons as big as curse yes

a dozen. oranges 2Oc and bananas
loc. Some differences to the
prices in the north.
Just south of us are the San
nernlto sewerage pumping and
oil stations. Well, night before
last at exactly IL o'c ock we
were awakened by q terrific ex-
p'oslon. We all rushed out and
saw flames leaping to the. sky.

the Baltimore Sheet and Tin Plate
Company was the logical and natural
thing. a home market for a large
part Of its output being assured, un-
usual transportation facilities for
domestic and foreign trade at hand,
it was only necessary to perfect an
organization with the experience
necessary to make the most of such
an opportunity This is only one of
many instances illustrating the point
in question.
Baltimore's recent Industrial de-
velopment has been at an unprece-
dentcd rate. No visitor to the Curtis
Bay district can fail to be impressed
by the number and the magnitude of
the new enterprises there. The har-
Dor appears to be much buster and
the industrial strides that the city is
making will undoubtedly result in
revival of commerce. A forecast of
this is 10 be found in the activity in
the construction Of new piers elevat-
ors and other port facilities. The
advent Of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany in the Baltimore district is a
matter OF large significance, because
it is a recognition of the advantages
of tidewater to a steel plant.
The management Of the Consol-
idated Gas Electric Light and Power
Company has been devoting the best
of its energies to the development of
the industrial resources of Baltimore.
II is a fruitful work, from which re-
suits are already apparent in a num-
Der of new industries, and it is the
purpose of the management to con-
tinue its efforts to encourage and
foster now industries in Baltimore
and to aid those already established
here in increasing in Importance.
The space allotted only allows me
to touch upon some Of the paramount
features which have been impressed
upon me by the experiences of recent
years in Baltimore. 1t is a fascinat-
ing thing to have to do with things
that grow, and now that Baltimore
people have realized such splendid
results from their endeavors of rec
ent years, it is to be hoped that they
will in the future find an added
pleasure and profit in concentrating
their energy and capital in the fur
ther development of home industries

or all institutions that go to make
up great city. none is OF more in-
portance to it's necessities or to its
attractiveuess as the theaters. After
the business strain OF the day, nature
demands mental relaxation, an agree
able distraction compelling an entire
change OF thought. This distraction
may be secured by an interest in
others who arc burdened with "the
heartache and the thousand natural
shocks that flesh is heir to-" and
through a sympathy created by the
dramatist be spurred on by renewed

and his FIRST thought is, how can he

ment the prosperity of every great
Metropolis is largely dependent upon
its ability to entertain its transient
population, to amuse the visitor who,
compelled to be away from his own
freside, seeks rational entertainment,
which II found becomes an incentive
to return, but if lacking, discourages
a repetition Of his visit.

dramatic history as Baltimore.
