PLANS FOR RETRENCHMENT Boonomy is Now thy Paramonat Iwne Ameng Big Railroads. * AUDITOR GEORGE T, KLINK EXPLAINS Community of Intereats Shows How It s Possible to Lop Off Numerous Heads and Still Keep Business Going. George T. Klink, general auditor of the Southern Pacific railway, who is now in Omaha attending a conference of auditors, glves considerable credence to the reported reduction of expenses in all departments of ratiroading, which, it {s sald, will be the chiet result of the recent and universal establishment of “community of intercst” In these properties. This idea {s the latest version of the “'probable results” stories which have ap- peared so frequently and In such auantities since the goneral pooling of railroads throughout this country became an ac- knowledged fact. That the heads of the combinations arc aiming straight at a re- duction of expenses all along the line through definite channels of procedure is the theory which is now belng widely ag tated The system 1s completely mapped out by the prognosticators and the exact course which the pruning will take is cut and dried in advance. It is asserted that four depart- ments of rallroading will be operated upon in this manner. They are the traffic depart- the executive department, the operat- artment and the busiuess office sec- Economy will be visited upon these different dlvisions in different degrees, but tending In all to the same end, the lessening of the staff of oMcials and employes and the abolition of separate operations for the dif- forent member lines of the same system in all departments named, Will Move Slowly. That (he movement will be slow mitted, but none the less certaln. Many other complications and phases resulting from the new conditions of unification of in- terests will occupy the major portion of the attention of the men who are behind the consolidations for a time, and have done #o during the period of almost two years since the time the pooling began. But the eco- nomical featurs has been always in sight, and the magnates are devoting more and more of their time to a study of ways and means that will accomplish results along this line 1t 15 sald that on the traffic change will come in the nature of a whole- sale removal of traveling freight agents, of all fast freight service and of the expensive freight assoclations which now watch over this division of the business. In the op- erating and executive departments the merging of the powers and duties of sev eral high officials holding similar positions on different roads of the same pool Into the hands of one s asserted to be Imminent. Here also a large reduction of the working stafts would result. The last change fore- casted s the bunching of all the big ety offices of a certain combination into one, thus eliminating a larga part of a vast item of expenditure. It is said that eventually the four scparate offices of the Hill-Morgan lines in Chicago and six of the Vanderbilt rouds will be found consolidated, all busi- uess heing done from the one head. Mr, Klink is Sangui Mr. Klink s sangulne that a portion of ose alterations so comfidently promised will come to pass. He thinks it the most weasonable thing in the world that the big centered Interests should look toward econ- omy. But he will not admit that any euch move will be carried to the extent of doing away with any general offices or officers now extant, or Increasing the business bur- dens of others “1 think it very probable that some ex- penses wi!l be cut,” sald Mr. Klink. “There is every opportunity for doing so. But this saving will be accomplished in the trafic department. That would be a most logical and feasible place in which to set such principles in operation, and for this reason: Before the establishment of the community of interests and ownership the roads were competing, one against the other. They had meny men out representing thelr trafc departments and fighting for the busine: Now these same lines are pooled and it would be obviously inconsistent and use- less for them to sollcit business competi- tively, especlally at an extra expense to themselves. “In the trafc department, then, it will be easy to economize, but I do not belleve that the operating or executive divisions of the work will be affected. Before the consolidations every head and high official in those lines had practically all the work he could well handle and I do not see how he could be expecied to do more now. No Change in Heads. “Nor will the roads avk him to. Of course 1 do not mean to y that such a merging would be impossible, for it could be done. But railroads think too much of thelr presidents and managers and are too glad to have their services to make any such change as that. These men work hard enough now and thelr lines know they do. “The amount of responsibility and labor “G0 Wesl, Ranch it and h it and you'll soon et rid of that ::1 chest and that hack- ug cough.” That is what the doctor d to a young married man with a wife and chil({ to care for and a modest salary to support thew on.

Adar A Scream from the Eagle This is & day for noise, and it matters not how it s made. Sedate observers of the natal celebration agree with the doc- tors that it is safer to shoot off the mouth than the pistol. But tastes differ in that respect. Young and old boys can play with fireworks,while only a small per cent of the population possesses the gift of oratorical pyrotechnlc to occupy the center of the ple- nlc stage. A gonius in this line is Colonel P. Donan, who has scattered skyrockets and word pictures from the lakes to the Columbla. While getting the prairies afire in the Dakotas some years ago he turned out of his megaphone “A Scream from the American Eagle'’ on the Fourth of July. A few bunches of fireworks touched off on that occasion will be found as fresh brilllant and warm as when they dazzled the Dakota multitude. affection to the metal melts In the conflagration of of the skie go today endures. slad tiding of a natlon's birth. It claimed the adoptiou of that immortal Dec- Jaration you have just heard so impressively read, by which the thirteen British col- onles severed the ties that had bound them to the mother country and stepped into the arena of nationalities as independent, soverelgn states; as the freest and best government, the grandest republic the world has ever seen. Herolc beyond all panegyric was the act of the little band of men in that old hall on the Fourth of July, 1776, and glorious beyond all imagination have been its results. The feeble Infant republic, whose birth that sacred bell an- nounced in tones of mingled joy and fear, was born In & night of storm and cloud, and baptized in the fire and blood of a seven years' war. It was cradled in poverty and adversity and its only lullaby was the roar of cannon and the rattle of mus- ketry. But, borne on the hearts and bay- onets of patriots as dauntless and devoted in the field as they were wise in the coun- cll, the young republic lived and thrived British armies surrendered to it. One by one the proudest empires and kingdoms of earth were forced to recognize its power and its dignity.

It disciplined the pirates of the Mediterranean coast who had for ages preyed with Impunity upon the commerce of all other nations and taught them at the mouth of Decatur's guns that there was one flag that must be respected In every land, on every sea. It chastised the lbso- lence of Mexico and rapidly extended its dominion from ocean to ocean.

Equines ““It is 80 hot in Chicago that many of the dray horses are wearing straw hats,” sald F. E. Kingsbury, who returned Wednesday from the Illinols city. “Drivers have pro- vided thelr horses with a straw head cov- ering, which looks something like a hat. It has holes in it for the cars and is fas- tened on by a strap underneath the throat “The heat in Chicago is unbearable. Among the high bulldings the air is stifiing and even in the parks the heat is very op- pressive. Women and children throng the parks during the entire day. Breezes from the lake are the only salvation for the peo- ple who live in the heart of the city and these can be had only where there are breathing places.” The evidence gathered at the weather office yesterday morning gave no hope of imme- diate relief. There is less of the potent element of humidity mixed up in the situ- ation, however, and, although the temper- ature is conelderably higher than yester- there is no greater suffering. The merce of the world, skimmed every ocean, cast anchor in every haven on the globe. Gold poured Into Its treasuries. Kings and princes rose up to do it honor. In the sun- light of every clime, from Greenland to Japan, from Madagascar to Spitzbergen, from Siberia to the southern pole, the Star Spangled Banner unfurled itself to the breeze, everywhere the proud, unsullied symbol of literty, union, power, peace, prosperity and glory. “It swept on its dazzling way, from tri- umph to triumph, from glory to glory, until today, on the 12th anniversary of its birth, no nation rears its head to heaven with such just and honest pride as ours, this American nation, this American re- public; and no music stirs the patriot soul 88 do the lofty strains of ‘Hall Columbia.' Arhong all the nationalities and realms of arth, it stands peerless, unrivaled, un- approached and unapproachable. The grandest empires of the old world, of anclent or of modern times, sink to petty provinces beside its vast dimensions. The whole possessions of Rome, when her golden eagles spread their wings victorlous from the burning sands of Africa to the mist-clad hills of Caledonia, fell short ot the immensity of our mew world domain. Russia, vastest of modern soverelgntles, could be lost in our half-hemisphere, be- yond the power of all the detectives in Christendom to find her. France, land of apoleon, at the tread of whose leglons but little more than half a century ago all Europe trembled as it taken with a Wabash valley ague, would scarcely overlap the single territory of Dakota, while Great Britain, whose morning drum-beat sounds around the globe, would hardly make a fly- speck on the face of Texas or California. “Do other lands boast of thelr great rivers? We could take up all their Niles and Thameses, their yellow Tibers, castled Rhines and beautiful blue Danubes, by thelr little ends and empty them into our ma- festic Mississippls, Missouris, Amazons, Saskatchewans and De la Platas, without making rise enough to lift an Indian flat- boat off a sandbar. Do they brag of their scas and lakes? We could spill all their puny Casplans and Azovs, their Dead Seas, Nyanzas and Magglores, into our mighty Superfors, Michigans, Eries and Ontarios, and scarce produce a ripple on their pebbled brims to wash away the eighteen-inch ‘footprints on the sands of time' left by the fairy-like slippers of St Louls or Chicago girls. Do they prate of their romantic scenery? We have a thou- sand jewel-like lakes that would make all their vaunted Somos, Genevas and Kil- larneys hide their faces in a veil of riendly fog. The thunder of our Niagara drowns out the feeble murmur of all their cata- racts, while the awful crags and canyons of our Yosemite and Yellowstone, the prismatic glitter and dash of our St. An- thonys and Minnehabas and the lonely grandeur of our horizon-fenced prairies, boundless aceans of billowy verdure, dwatt to insipidity the most famous scenes of Switzerland and Italy, eclipse the wonders and glories of the Arablan Nights and defy all the skill of poet's pen and artist's pen- cll to depict the veriest atom of their sub- limity and their lovelines Do they prat- tle about their Aetnas and Vesuviuses? With our noses turning somersaults of in- eftable contempt clear over our heads, we thunder forth our Cotopaxis, Popocatapetls, Chimborazos and a score of other jaw- breakers whose very names alone are too huge for common tongues. “Do other lands and sations talk of | the rivers are IWILL temperature at 2 o'clock, 92 degrees, was not as appreciable to those who could walk on the shady side as the score de grees on the day before The continued deaths and prost the east bid fair to cont! for several days, as the decrease In temperature thie morning was only a three degrees conditions are such that as high a score as yesterday le expected during the afternoon FIELDS RIPE FOR HARVEST Small of 8 ations io yut rain I8 Safe in Northeast Ne- ter Than State Senator W.
