Over 1t.


Over 1t.
Differences in the Interpretation OF the
Elkins law made trouble yesterday at the
meeting Of the Western Passenger asso
citation. Notice was given by the Wabash
the Wisconsin Central and the Grea,
Western that they would throw party rates
open to the public. Other lines said tina,
this would give brokers a new lease O.
life, as they would organize parties ane
".scalp' the rates. Because the Burling
ton had sent instructions to agents be-
fore a common conclusion had beer
reached. the row became worse. Further
it was learned that one Of the strong line!
had asked legal advice regarding the i'm
migrant bureau. which is thought by som'
to be in violation Of the new law. TIL,
purpose of the company mentioned Is tt
withdraw from the bureau, provided it il
held to be illegal. The association will
probably be in session for several days.

reading our advertisements about
Blanke's Roasted Coffee. She
said she was very particular
about the things she ate and
drank. She said she would try a
pound of Blanke's Coffee, and if
it wasn't first class she would
come back and get her money.
We told her all right. Did she
come back for her money? She
did not. Instead of that she sent
three neighbors around, and they
all bought Blanke's Coffee. That's
the way it goes. Hadn't you bet
