THEODORE MANN RETfREs.

After forty-nine years of service
for the Chicago and Northwestern
Railway, Theodore Mann retired on
October LIST, without mark against
his record
Mr.. Mann, or more commonly
known as "The" Mann, to his many
friends and associates, retires with
the good wishes of friendship as
broad as his acquaintance. He is be-
loved by all who know him.
He will retire to his home in Hast
ings, Neb., where he can enjoy his
we'll earned rest in the midst of his
family and friends. His home will be
the mecca Of all railroad men who
drop into Hastings, as it would be
considered almost crime to visit
chat beautiful cit, without saying a
few words with Theodore Mann and
receiving his salutation.
Mr.. Mann began his railroad career
as a fireman when 10 years of age.
He was promoted to an engineer on
May 5, 1873. and began his passenger
service in 1875.
He ran between Mo. Valley and
Sioux City from 1875 to 1887, and
from Hastings, Neb., to Omaha from
1887 to 1904. In 1904 he went on the
run between Mo. Valley and Hastings,
which he held until his retirement.

TO FIGHT
RETURN OF The
OPEN SALOON
Say They Were the Cause of
National Prohibition by
Abuse of Law

New York, Sept SO.-Distillers are
wondering what they are going to do
with the huge stocks Of liquor left
on their hands when the nation went
into its prohibition period.
They believe, according to o. n.
Wathen, who is head of Kentucky
largest whiskey manufacturing plant,
that whiskey will come back some of
these days, but even they are firm
against allowing it to come back in
the old way.
eve don't want saloon" Wathen
said recently. eve would have liquor
take its place as a commodity to be
disposed of at the grocery or the de-
partment store. We have no patience
with the saloon. It got us into all cur
trouble. A man used to drop into a
saloon, begin consuming whiskey, and
walk out staggering drunk. He went
home and annoyed his wife, the neigh
bors saw him and pitied him. The
drys pointed to him as a horrible ex-
ample and whiskey took all the blame
We believe whiskey can be handled
right in this country, and we are
going to make a fight to that end.
Abolish the saloon and let the house
holder buy his whiskey and take it
home. That's what we want to hap
pen and we want to do away with the
wrecks of people. Good whiskey
bad whisky that made physical
won't hurt any one unless he makes
a pig of himself"
Wathen estimated that there is
SIT 900, 900 in whiskey tied
up in government warehous-
ses. The government agents
hold the key to this stock, not
the distillers. A great deal of it
represents the capital of distilIers.
They want q chance to get rid Of it,
and are hoping that Congress will in
some way declare war prohibition at
an end and give them chance to sell
off the accumulation.
IF Congress will allow US to start
in October to get rid Of our stocks"
said Wathen, 1--WE viii come near dis
posing Of it by the time the national
prohibition law goes into effect. /
think we are entitled to some con-
''We can't get insurance on stock
unless policies had been issued before
prohibition went into effect. Insur-
ance companies fear destruction Of
