8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1895 JOBBERS WILL GO INTO IT Pleased with Plans and Work of the Trav- elers’ Protective Association, WHAT IT HAS ACCOMPLISH:D Address of Mr. Lyon Before the Fxecutive Committee of the Commers Club— Prediction that the Nebraska Organ- fzation Will Grow Fast and Strong. The gentlemen at the head of the Travelers Protective Assoclation of America, and who “have charge of the direction of its affairs, in- tend that the Nebraska division of the asso- clation shall be an organization In fact as well as in name. At the convention of commercl “held In this city last Friday and Saturday it was unanimously decided by the traveling men present that instead of forming a separate state organization they would form a Nebraska division of the above men- tloned association, belleving that as an integral part of one powerful national organi- zation they could accomplish better results than with o purely local association, which bad no influence or pi ige beyond the bounds of the state. Deeming it advisable to secure the co-operation of the manufac- turers and jobbers of the state, so that the Nebraska division would be thoroughly repre- sentative of all the commercial interests within the state, Mr. Burt W. Lyon of St. Louls, editor of the Commercial Traveler, was Tuesday invited to address the executive committee cof the Commercial club upon the plan, scope and advantages of the Travelers Protective Association of America, which or- ganization he represents. In presenting the claims of the Travelers Protective Assocla- tion of America for the recognition of the manuf: g and jobbing interests, Mr. Lyon sald: “We desire to present for your considera- tlon the practical rosults which have been accomplistied and which are sought by the Travelers Protective Association of Amerl and, in order (o do this clearly, it will pro ably be well that the causes which first in- duced the organization of the fation be mentioned. “In 1884 there existed in and te: ories of the imposed a tax or licen trayelers from other states restriction upon the commercial the country. Believing that this tax unjust and"in conflict witn the spirit of the constitution of the United States, which guarantees the freedom of commercial inte course between the states, the Trav Protective Assoclation of the United States, as it was then known, was formed for the purpose of resisting the operation of these laws. A test case was made in the state of Texas and after be arried through the courts of that state It was taken (o the supreme court of the United States, where the law referred to was declared to be un- constitutional. This decision at once had the desired effect and resulted in the immediate repeal of all such their non- enforcement. After red this trlumph the association 1 to exist for several years without any tangible object for so0 doing, with the result that lack of Interest gradually caused the disintegration of the organization. Secing thal something must be done to hold the membership to- gether the assoclation was reorganized at the national convention of 1890, which was held in Denver, and an accident insuran feature incorporated to give the association some cohesive strength, the dues at the same thne being increased from $2 to $10 per year. INTERCHANGEABLE MILEAG “Shortly after the reorganization the Travelers Protective ‘the question of Interchangeable mileage, which had previously been handled fn a desultory manner by various local as ‘thons, was taken hold of by the'Travelers Protective Asscelation of America and a bill introduced into congress in 1891, so amend- ing the Interstate commerce law as to allow rallroads to issue an interchangeable mileage book and grant a greater allowance of baggage to commercial travelers. The move in this direction was made for the reascn that the railroads of the country had per taken refuge behind the fact that undel provisions of the Interstate commerce law they could not legally lssue an interchange- able mileage book. The national officers and national legislative. committee of the Trav- elers Protective Association of America labored zealously to secure the passage of this bill, but without success. 1n 1893, the association having become greutly strength- ened by the addition of numerous new state divisions to its ranks, another bill was intro- duced into cougress, asking for the sar leglslative remedy. This bill met with better fate than its predecessors the exertion of strenuous cfforts by the rep- resentatives of this great organization it was finally reported favorably by the house com- mittee and cn June 19 last was called up by Representatiye Durborow of Tllinois and passed. As the United States senate was at that time ongaged with the tariff bill struggle the Travelers Prolective Assoclation of America bill failed of consideration at tho hands of that body during that session. At the prosent scssion of congress, however, the entire machinery of cur great nationai pesociation was put to ‘work, with the result that upon January 20 our bill was called up by Senator Gorman of Maryland and unanimously passed the senate, Tho president at once signed t measure, with the result that since it has be- come a law threo great systems of railroads havo each issued an Interchangeable mileage book, ono book belng good over twenty-three lines' of railroad, another book over twenty- elght lines of railroad and seven transfer lines, and another over cighteen lines of railroad, six steamboat lines, seven transfer lines and Is also accepted in payment for ex- coss baggage and sleeping car fare, Since 1 have been In Omalia I am also advised from national hesdquarters at St. Louis that Cincinnaty, Ham'lton & I Just dsued an interchangeable mileag Bood over sixty-eight diff es of rond. PLAN OF ORGANIZATION. These facts I submit to you, gentlemen, tangible cvidence of the benefits and of our organizaticn, and 1 wish to say you that when we ack you to join bands with us In strengthening this great a clation it Is with no ulterior object in view, but to the end that we may build up in thié country u yast organization of commercial interests, of- fensive and defensive, which will insure to those interests all such rights and privileges as should justly be accorded to them. This assoclation s founded upon the plan of the federal government. The national associa- tion is composed of various state divisions (at preseut numbcring thi v0), and the stato divisions are in turn made up of the local posts throughout the state. The local posts are under the control of thoe state di- Vislons, while tbe state divisions are abso- lutely independent of ench other and of the natlonal assoclation, so far as affairs within the state are concerned, and while free to aot in this capacity, have at all times the jght to call mpon the nationa) association t ercise its power and influence In securing fny Just aud reasonable concessions whi X Fests of any of the varlous state di may roquire, Thus, while a compons rt of tho one great organization, it at jmes has the rights ond privileges of te snd Aistinet state organization, e would bike Lo sco you gentlimen who vepresent the manufacturing and jobbing in sts of Omaha and Ncbraska join hands With our commerclal travelers in making this arganization a power for guod, and to that end request your earncet conslderation of alures Which bave been lald before travelers ne fifteen states on a law which o com a operat of association a and after ou. 9% the' conctusion of Ar.

The next national convention of the Trav- clers Protective association will be held at San_Antonfo, Tex., in June, by which time it {s expected that the Nebraska division will nuniber at least 300 members, which will entitlo it to five delegates in the national convention. —— Paor Digestion Leads to nervousness, frotfulness, peevish- ness, chronic dyspepsia and great misery.

A. il o MARBLE TO TEACHERS, Talks About the Clevel Convention— Some General Matters, Nearly all of the 330 teachers of the city schools were present at the teachers’ meet- ing in the city hall yesterday afternoon. The principal part of the time was occupied by Superintendent Marble, who related his cxperience at the Tecent convention of the superintendence branch of the National Edu- cational association at Cleveland. Dr. Mar- ble prefaced his remarks by a little advice to the teachers along gencral lines, He discussed the attitude which the teacher should occupy toward a pupil who was in- subordinate, which in his opinion should be as far remioved from lackadaisical sentimen- tality as from cold and unfeeling severity. He declared that unremitting cheerfulness should be one of the characteristics of every teacher. It was only by maintaining a cheery and pleasant exterior that she could do the best of which she was capable. It was sometimes difficult for a teacher not to bo disturbed by the trials and exasper tions incident to the school work, but she should think of how much better she was off than she might be and be happy. In_speaking of the meeting at Cleveland Dr. Marble sald that these meetings and dis- cussions among teachers had an important part in modern educational work, They found inspiration in co-operation and a spur 1o loftier aims. Rach tegcher was strength- ened by contributing hls share, however small, to the general fund of information and experience, He reviewed at some length the proceedings of the convention, dwelling on the principal points that were brought out i the digcussions, During the meeting Miss McCarty presented the claims of the war song concert that is to be given for the bene- fit of the Associated Charities, and urgea that each teacher should purchase at least one ticket and try to interest her school in the projec ———— TOLD BY DAME RUMOR, Omaha and Lincoln Capital to Purchass a Streot Kailway.

Council Sits Down on the Proposition to Locate Additlonal Lights. A Job lot of ante-election promises to admiring constituents went glimmering when the report of the committes on gas and electric lights was read at the coun- cil meeting Tuesday night. The committee re- ported adversely on more than a score of street lamp resolutions, and the lecation of the two lamps that were recommended were defeated, This seems to indicate that there will be no material addition to the present number of lights this year. The 1894 coun- cil inberited a deficiency of $15,000 in the lighting fund, and when the present coun- cil came in, this had increased to 000, The 90 per cent avallable from the present 3 mill levy amounts to $564,000, and tho cost of the lights now under contract amcunts to $68,000 per year. There is consequently a prospective deficiency at the end of the year In addition to that which was left by the old council. In the face of these facts the councilman who gets an electric light resolution through is entitled to a blue rib- Lon, or at least that is what is said, HOMESEEKERS EXCURSIONS, South Via the Wabash Raliroad.
