The capitalists don't run the railroads, they only own them. Eli minating the capitalists and their ownership would in nowise inter- fere with tho running of the rail- roads. The same people who run the railroads now would run them under public ownership. The only difference would be in the way they run them. They now run thcm for profits Under Socialism they would run them to give the best possible service to those who use them.
 The people made the railroads; {; why shouldn't they own them? He's true to God who's true to
 man; whenever wrong is done, To the humblese and the weakest,
 meath te all-beholding sun, That wrong is also done to us, and they are slaves mast base, Whose love of right is for them selves, and not for all the race.

General Rain Over West
Helps Winter Wheat Crop

Railroads report that the rain
over Wyoming and Colorado Friday
continued during the night, spread
ing over all Nebraska, most of
South Dakota and worked we'll
down into Kansas. When reports
were filed at 8 o'clock this morning
rain was still general over Nebraska.
Over central Nebraska and along
the South Platte and Republican
river valleys it rained all Friday
night, the precipitation ranging from
one to two, or more inches. Prac-
tically all over Nuckolls, Clay,
Adams, Thayer and Red Willow
counties there was two-inch rain.
Reports to the railroads are to the
effect that the acreage sown to VIM
ter wheat through the South Platte
country is considerably in excess Of
last year and the opinion is that the
recent rains, coupled with the one
of Friday night will quickly germi-
nate the seed and give the plant a
good start before freezing weather

In Friday afternoons Bee, ?
o'clock edition. appeared an eXclu-
sive story telling of the theft of a
roadster belonging to DR.. 0. S.

Harvey street.
Before 6 o'clock Friday night
within four hours after the exclusive
story appeared in The Bee-Dr.
Hoffman received seven different Of
fers of cars with chauffeurs. Later
the stolen car was recovered.
Although DR.. Hoffman did not
find it necessary to avail himself of
the offer of a car, the expediency
with which the offers were made is
indicative of the desire of Omahans
to extend every convenience and aid
to doctors who are playing such an
part in fighting and stem
ming the epidemic of Spanish in
fluenza which is sweeping the city.
Also the short space of time in
which people became acquainted
with DR., Hoffman's loss is convinc-
ing evidence of the expedient and
thorough circulation of The Bee.
