C. W.

Qt is bound to hurt business on that street, C. 8. Goodrich—By all means 1 am in favor of having the eable line loeated on Farnam, Four tracks wont hurt the street at all, In Chicago the business street is the one that has the cable lines on. Yowll notice the same thing in Kansas City. It will certainly help our business interests. Chris. Hartman—l don’t want to sce four tracks on Farnam street. 1 am in favor of having the cable line on that gtreet but not with the horse Iway. It will surely hurt business and_obstruct travel. Why, riding on the street with four tracks would be absolutely danger- ous. John Drexel—I cas having the cable The rnam the like to see it run But it won't do I should like to sce wouldn’t care if the Cable line alone were to be on Farnam, but Idon’t want tosee that and the car line too. It will hurt busi- 0. W arnam str Ames—I don’t want to sce it et, and | think the prop- 1 up by the street-car company, will kick so vigorously that the cable people will have™ to back down. The concensus of opinion scems to be that the line ought to run on any other street than Farnam.

Frank Ramge—Farnam street is not going to have the cable_road, and_don't you forget it. 1t would be an outrage. Farnam is not the only street in the city. Why don't they locate 1t on Douglas or some other stres They could do it just a8 well, and get just asmuch business. 1 am bitterly opposed to four tracks on Farnam, because it will ruin all business on that street, People will cease to us it for driving, and the consequence is that it will be abandoned entirely From the expression noted above will be seen that property owners and business men on Farnam street are about equally divided on the question of havi the cable line on that thorougl Many are opposed to the line bsinF on Farnam, because there would then be four tracks, two belonging to the cable company and two to the street car compuny. ~Were it not for that circumstance, they would be in favor of Fuarnam street as the route. Others are imclined to belicve that even with four tracks, the business of the street will be materially bettered by the location of the thereon. he general opinion seems to be that the action of the street ear company in inning injunction suits against the eablo company and threatening to build & eable line of their own is a big “bluff” 1o force the cable company to consolida- tion.

A NEW MIN lh\L WATER. Enterprise Encouraged By the Unlon Pacific—Rail Notes. The Union Pacific railroad is doing everthing in its power to encourage an enterprise which has just developed along its Idaho line—the bottling of min- eral water from the famous soda springs. These waters have long been noted for their eflicacy, but only until recently did un attempt to bottle them, and at the same time retain their health giving qual- ities, prove successful. The Union Pacific company, deter- mined to ascertain, if possible, the rea- sons which prevented the waters from retaining their effftacy if removed Trom the springs, and engaged a corps of chem- ts to reveal the mystery by practical tests, These gentlemen—there were ten of them--worked assiduousl y for ten days before they were able to declare them selves masters of the situation. Afte numerous experiments, the y succeeded in bottling the waters so as 'to preserve all the natutal gnsuf and minerals pos- sessed by them In these springs. The winnmg ‘experlment was a simple m“x By running a pipe to }Jm bottoifi of the springs the water is forced by the yat- ural gases into a large copper cylinder, thence into bottles which are corked by machinery, and the water is bottled as it “Lieserl” An leaves the earth, impregnated with gas and mineral properties.

That he was favorably im- pressed with us may be inferred from the following talk which he had with a reporter of the ‘‘Journal” of that place. He says: “It has been twenty years since I visited Omaha to look the city over, although I have been there several timeson business during that time, and I tell youdtis a magnifi- cent place. 1he city has been just as hard to build as Sioux City, but they have done the work gradually, and now are able to make a fine showing. The streets are broad, and are paved out a long di and the magnificent city park 1s just whe y city needs and must have. Sioux City ean’t move too quick in sceuring a park site, before the ice of real estate gocs up any higher. park at Omahais un uudulating of ground, the sume as can now y be obtained here, but the work that has been cxpended upon it has transformed it into a very beautiful and the street cars to and from it onded with people all day long. Then the city is making great and & cessful efforts toward getting munufac- turing ishments of various kinds, and seems to realize that a city can’t be made of green grocer's establishments, with a few wholes es thrown in. We are short on factories here in Sioux City, and the utmost effort must be made to secure them if we expect to continue to grow and be a city of importance.” Opelt’s Hotel, Lincoln Neb., opened March 15th, first class in every respect. A Half-Breed Trailing. The Bek of Tuesday night contained a special telegram from Papillion, in this state, telling of the detention at that place of two men who were caught while endeavoring to run a mortgaged team out of the country. The item caught the attention of Louis Hanl- ilton, a half-breed, who bears a gilver star upon s breast on which are engraved the the lotters “U. 8.
