Our city council are fully aware OF the

ways and means in order that no mis-

That 1t is Of paramount Importance to

is to vote YES for the proposition.

After the Express Companies.

It IS understood that the express com.
panies have to make a reduction in rates
rather than fight the cases that are soon
to come up in the supreme court. Yes.
terday all the companies filed their rate
sheets with the railroad and warehouse
commissioners, and indicated that they
would make reduction in some classes
of express matter equal to 10 per cent.
The committee have not yet indicated
to the commissioners in what particular
line they are willing to make reductions
equal to 10 per cent, but it is assumed that
and dairy products will
claim the greatest share of the reduc-
tions. and it is thought that the com
mission will insist upon these classes re-
ceiving the benefit, because they affect
the largest number of people.
