The Northwestern road has adopt
ed plan which offers inducements
to the travelling public to procure
tickets at the station, and thus re-
move the temptation to conductors
to appropriate to themselves the
cash fares collected. When payment
is rendered on the train, the fare
with an additional ten cents, is COL
lected, and receipt, called "cash
fare Slip" is given therefor, so that
a conductor cannot evade reporting
the full amount Of cash collected.
Perhaps under this new rule the
will be less prosperous
financially, but the manner of doing
business will be found satisfactory to
all concerned. Patrons will do well
to observe the order, and thus save
the Ioc collected for making change
on trains.
