Ta commenting on the propused compromise The Minneapolis Journal advises its acceptance, in case the companies make such an offer, and gives as its reasons, the avoidance of tion, poor service and other like inconveniences which can be imposed railroads, and are now betng en- dured by the people of Nebraska as a ssult of 2-cent fare legislation. The val further argues that the flat ent rate would antagonize the rail- oads to the extent that they would offer no cut rates on the occasion of fairs, conventions, tournaments, etc. in fact the Journal proposes the sub- servience of the people of the entire state to the railroads in order that the twin cities might draw large at- Let ‘er jance at their gatherings. go at the 2-cent rate, we can’t suffer biuch worse service. pean CE re Going to End It “Albert J.

He adopted a novel metho1 by which to test him. Heslipped into the boy’s room one morning and placed on his table a bottle of whiskey, a Bible aud a silver dollar: “Now,” said he, ‘when dot boy comes in if he takes dot dollar he’s going to be a beeznis man; if he takos dot Bible he’s going to be a preacher; if he takes dot whiskey he’s no good, and going to be a drunkard.” Ther he hid behind a door to see which \his son would choose. In came the boy whistling. Heran up to the table picked up the Bible and put it under his arm, then snatched up the bottle, took two or three drinks, picked up the dollar and put it in his pocket and wept out smacking his lips. The Dutchman poked his head out from behind the door and exclaimed: “Mein Got, he is going to be a bolitician.” Dislocates His Shoulder.
