10 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, MARE RATES FOR AK-SAR-BEN Licoal Bailroad Officia's Meot to Deoide on Definite Reduction. ONE FARE PROPOSITION IS FAVORED Western Te- Jects the Application, but Omaha Passenger Association Lines Prepare to Take In« dependent Action. Despite the fact that the proposition to give a rate for Ak-Sar-Ben week of one tare for the round trip from pointa within a radius of 200 miles of Omaha was re- jected by the Western Passenger assocla- tion, the rate will undoubtedly go into ef- fect anyhow, as was stated by Assistant General Passenger Agent Fort of the Unfon Pacific in The Bee. Official notification of the action of the assoclation was received at the local rall- road offices yesterday, and a call was sent out at once to all of the passenger of- fictals of terminal lines ih Omaha for a meeting to be held Tuesday afternoon to take concerted action In the matter. At this meeting a decision will be reached as to the exact rate, -and notice will be served on the Western Passenger assocla- tion that such a rate will be put into ef- fect' by all of the roads running into Omaha. The general opinfon is that the rate will be the same as the original propo- sition presented to the association. This s almost the same as the rate granted by the association last year, except that the radius of selling points east of the river is increased from 150 to 200 miles The rejection of the rate by the associa- tion Is not looked upon serfously by any of the local railroad officials, as the vote must be unanimous in making such a rate, and any road can spoil it. Exactly the same end will be reached through serv- ing notice as if the proposition had not been rejected. one Ready for the Soldiers. The B. & M., Union Pacific and North- western lines have completed their prep- arations for handling the companies of the First Nebraska to the encampment at York . today. All but two of the companies will go by train, while the Wymore battery will only go as far as Crete, from which place they will march to York. The hospital corps, which 1s located at Tincoln, will go overland to the encampment and return over the Burling- ton. Three of the companiee, from Stan- ton, Wahoo and Omaha, will be carried by the Northwestern, a special train be- ing used from Fremont. The Union Pacific carries the Madison company to Columbus, where it will be joined by the Columbus company and car- ried out over the B. & M. on a special train. Most of the companies will be carried in speclal coaches on the regular trains of the rallroads, although the B. & M. has arranged for a speclal for the Beatrice and Wilber companies. The B. & M. will also carry the Geneva, Nelson and Broken Bow companies and the Weep- ing Water company from Lincoln. Signature in Ink at Window, A new edict has gene forth to ticket agents of various rallroads throughout the west to the effect that all signature tickets must be signed at the ticket win- dows with the companies' pen and Ink. It has been discovered that it was a common practice among ticket scalpers to furnish prospective sellers of the return stub of excursion tickets with a fountain pen, filled with an ink that fades out rapidly, to sign thelr tickets. The signature, having faded out, is filled in agaln by the pur- chaser of the return stub and any trouble as to difference In signatures or means of identification is done away with. ‘Will Test the Law, The Texas railroad commission has again asserted Its suthority over the rallroads of Texas In a letter, which is addressed to General Manager Egan of the Fort Worth and Denver City rallroad. The letter is the outgrowth of one complaint made against the rallroad because of a colored person eating on one of the company's diners. The xas law requires separate Pullmans and chair cars for white and colored persons and the rallroad commis- slon asserts that it will test the validity of allowing colored persons to eat on a diner if any more complaints are entered with it.

E. Johnson Gives His Views of Conditions Along the Pacific Slope. W. F. Johnson has returned from the Pa- cific coast, where he has been since early in July. Speaking of conditions in California he said: ““The frult grower seems uniformly dissat- isfled and discouraged, except as he has hopes of selling out to a tenderfoot from the east. He is not dissatisfied because he cannot raise fruit or because his orchards have to be renewed with too great fre- quency, but because when his harvest is over he has nothing. The Fruit Shippers assoclation, which is an exact twin of the elevator combine of Nebraska, has every- thing—trees, vines and all—unless he takes care. If he has been so unfortunate as to borrow money there will be no question about It being trees, vines and all. This is on the one hand. If, on the other, he has to make improvements, his lumber will cost him $28 a thousand and fence posts 85, cents aplece. Lumber at Portland or Tacoma at the mill is worth $10 a thousand and fence posts 6 cents aplece. Whether by water or rail, it makes no difference; the lumber combine, an adjunct also of the Transporta- tion company, takes its pound of flesh. But the miner who has a ledge of ore some place up In the mountain is better off. If there Is a smelter next door, yes, If not, no. It the ore has to be shipped, the rate is fixed ac returne the smelter and {s almost or al- together prohibitive unless the ore is very rich, “At Leadville, oClo., where there are both mines and smelters, I was told of a differ- ent condition. The rallroads and smelters are combined. The first will not carry the ore away and the second will not treat the ore at home except at rates that make min- ing altogether unprofitable, E at a standstill and has been for several years, This is what Is known as the freez- ing-out process. After a while, it is almost possible of demonstration beforehand, the men who own mining clalms and partly developed mines will be willing to letigo, and at whatever price they can get. “A few years ago Yaquina Bay, the only harbor on the coast between San Francisco and Portland, was the terminal of 100 or 200 miles of railroad that did not belong to the Southern Pacific. All coast- ing vessels and some ocean vessels stopped at Yaquina Bay, and a most valuable out- let was furnished to central Oregon. Now To coasting or ocean vessel stops, and the, mouth of the harbor is drifting full of sand. Some hundreds of thousands of dol- lars expended by the government in the way of temporary work in preparation for making the harbor good for all future time, has been wasted. What happened? The Southern Pacific got control of the cross-line of road, and congress for some reason falled to make an appropriation for finishing the work begun at Yaquina Bay. Yaquina Bay is a port of entry. It did §7 worth of business last year. It Is safe to assume that the shipping out was a little greater than the shipping in of foreign goods. Ten or a thousand times greater would make no difference. Central Oregon 1s shut up to one outlet, as before. 1 think I noticed in some paper, as I came across the state, that the rallroads of Nebraska would hardly be able to han- dle the grain and stock of the state this tall; that serious shortage of cars was looked for, and 8o it had been agreed upon that the rate on stock should be ralsed September 5—8 or 10 per cent. Will the governor call an extra session of the legls- lature, or would it be worth while? Wil the maximum frelght rate case be taken into court again, or would this be worth while? The average freight rate in Ne- braska on grain is almost twice the aver- age rate in lowa. If the average rate on stock s now or later made double the Iowa rate who will care? Not the governor, or the legislature, or the courts, under present conditions. Might not the producers or consumers become interested? One could hardly be set down as unpatriotic if he expressed simply the wish that the ad- vantage of the wealth produced by his own state especially benefit his own state until at least it has reached secure and good footing. Then, if Nebraska wants to bulld up & wealthy class in New York or some place, that will be Nebraska's business.” —e Will Do All This for You.

Hundreds of prisoners have languished in the Douglas county jail for hundreds of days move than required by the law, ac- cording to Judge Slabaugh, Police Judge Berka and City Prosecutor Lee. Since the jail was built prisoners servjng out fines imposegd by, the police magistrate have done 0 at the rate of $2 per day. The law ex- pressly provides that for all such offenses imprisonment shall be on & basis of §8 a day. The rule has been one of precedent and tradition in the office of the sheriff. Now it will be changed and the incarceration of men and women sent up for fines will be reduced one-third. Originally the misunderstanding came about through the ordinance giving the right to the police magistrate to sentence to “hard labor” which shall be worked out at the rate of $2 a day. Nothing was said about the working out or imprisonment for fines in the ordinances, and the $2 a day rate was merely inferred. The point was brought up by Attorney M. 8. Bouma, who endeavored to extradite a client, Henry Irish, who had been fined for assault and battery and had no money. Other technical points arose, so that the controversy over the jall rate did not come | oefore Judge Slabaught for a ruling, but he and Sheriff Power made a personal in- vestigation, which resulted in a change of rules.
