Nehave received the new time table of The
Narrow Gauge Railroad. which is to 20 in
to effect next Monday. We must protesr
against it as II great injustice to Lexington
and to all those persons living in the western
part of Lafayette county who desire to come
TO Lexington, transact business and return
the same day. BY this arrangement the morn
ing train Will arrive here at 1903 p. m, ant
the train west will leave at 1.2G p. M, just
giving passengers one hour and twenty-three
minutes to transact business. and get to and
from the business part o: the town. Besides,
the time table dIScriminates in favor OF
Kansas City and against Lexington by yivins
passengers five hours and fOrty-eiyht min
utes in that city, whilst it only gives then
one hour and twenty-threc minutes here. Ii
will neither suit the business men OF Licking
ton nor the farmers who are expected tt
p~atrOniZe the road. We can see that thi:
time is made to accommodate the lndepepd.
ence and Kansas City travel, but certainly
some arrangement en- be made by which
that can be done, and the Lexington trad,
be accommodated too.
