Mr.. Stanton" to collecting m1terIal
for the biography of my father, al
though his own papers i'm my
possession afford perhaps all tha'
would be necessary. 1t will be SLOW
aud painstakIng work to write his lie
and it is not yet fully settled who VIII
undertake it. | find that my father
has many enemies among the
surviving actors in the great wal
struggle. He made either IL friend or
an enemy of every man VIII" came III
contact with him, but those who were
associated with him day and nlght
understood and loved him, rugged
and arbitrary as he seemed to others.
The literature of the war Will not be
complete until the life of my father IL

The following circularhas been sent
to agents of Manitoba Railway Co. 1t
contains much of general interest and
we give it in full.
To Station Agents: Occasional
complaints reach this office that
wheat buyers are, at some stations,
making prices for wheat that with
freight charges added, leave an un-
reasonable charge for the service per-
formed by them.
You are advised that the Elevator
Companies along our lines guarantee
to make their receipts good at Min
neapolis or Duluth for the same
quality ana quantity of grain their
ticket calls for, given at the elevators
along the line.
This enables anyone delivering
wheat to sell his ticket and get the
same grade and same weight at Du-
luth or Minneapolis less the freight
and advertised rates for handling and
selling.
Elevators are required also TO re-
ccIve and ship grain for any party de-
string them to do so, at their usual
advertised rates for handling.
Where Elevator Companies or in
dividuals, having Elevators or Ware
houses on this COmpany's property,
refuse to do this; or where they refuse
to guarantee grades as above indica-
ted, Agents will promptly report the
same to this office by wire, giving the
name of Company or individual so
refusing.
Agents will keep this circular
posted in CONSPICUOUS place at their
Station for the information of the
public.
complaints are made to any
Agent that buyers are exacting too
great difference between the price
paid in the country and the quotations
at Minneapolis or Duluth, this Office
should at once be advised, with the
prices paid for each grade at the
Station OH the day when complaint is
made. \. MARVEL,
General Manager.
