Makes Through Rates with an Electric
IIne-Other Roads Worried.

y CHICAGO, Nov. 1O.-Freight and passenger
officials Of other railroads are agitated
over the action of the Illinois Central in
fling with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission a tariff Of through rates on freight
between points on its line and those of the
Chicago and Milwaukee Electric Railroad.
This ia the first tariff ever published
showing an agreement between a steam
and an electric road 10 interchange freight
and make through rates.
Recently the officials Of the Chicago and
Milwaukee railroad consulted informally
some members Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission as to whether steam roads
could be compelled to interchange freight
and make through rates on electric lines.
1t Is understood that the commissioners
expressed the opinion that steam and
electric lines were on a parity under the
law and suggested hat the Chicago and
Milwaukee road make a proposition for
interchange of freight and through rates
to some steam roads. The proposition was
made to the Illinois Central for through
rates on vegetables and other farm products.
The proposition was accepted.

Another Electric Line.

The prospects of an interurban rail-
way line from Hampton to Clear Lake,
by way of Beed S lake, thence through
Latimer and Thornton to its destina-
tion at Clear Lake, is question being
discussed by the members of the
Hampton Commercial association. An
agent of Chicago capitalists has made
business proposition to the cities of
Clear Lake and Hampton, with the
final object of having this road built.
The proposed route will open up a
territory for interurban travel which
was practically the same as was
contemplated by the Iowa Falls Short
Line before it decided to go to Mason
City. The road will run from Hampton
to Beed's lake. distance of three
miles; this point it is calculated will
be a source of income, as the lake is a
very popular picnic and boating resort.
Hundreds of Franklin county people
along the line will find this con-
venient method of reaching the lake.
From the lake the road will run due
west to the town of Latimer, thence
northwest through Thornton and then
to Clear Lake. The proposed road
will be about forty miles in length

Reserving Seats for Lecture Course,

The reservation of seats for the
different entertainments in our Ly-
ceum Course has been attended by
not little inconvenience owing to
the large crowd and the consequent
jam and congestion at the ticket
window. In order, if possible, to
minimize this somewhat Objectionable
feature in connection with securing
seats, the executive committee at a
recent meeting resolved to adopt the
following plan: To print tickets or
cali checks numbered from to 600
consecutively. On the day ami at the
hour selected for reserving seats,
which for Earl X. Drake Concert Co. /,
which appears here on the 10Th inst.
has been fixed for Friday, Jan. II
from ~ 80 to5. Mr.. N. HI. Adams with
competent assistants will be present
near the entrance to the opera house
and distribute these numbered checks.
The holder of one of these checks
will then be entitled to pass on to
the ticket window in the order
designated by the number on his check
and be recognized by Mr.. Frank
Adams who will permit him to reserve
six seats or less. No more than six
seats can be reserved by any one
person at one time, and no person
who approaches the ticket window
without first having secured one of
the above mentioned numbered call
checks, or who approaches the window
in advance of his or Ter as indicted
by his check number will be re-
cognized by Mr.. Adams nor be allowed
to reserve his seat or seats.

Altho the year just passed has been
most satisfactory to us in the business
gains we have made over past years,
we still plan to conduct our store in
such manner during 1906 that the
year will end with even greater
showing.
1t shall he our constant study to i'm
prove our service and stock in every
way possible, and we intend to meet
the requirements of everybody, both
in goods carried and in features of
convenience.
We wish to serve you this year and
promise you prompt and courteous at
tention at all times. In regard to
prices, we can state that in the future
as in the past, we shall lead in good
values.
The professional side of our bust
ness-the compromising of prescrip-
tions and family receipts and the dis
pensing of medicines in geneial-will
be of the most scientific character.
AS announced in December, we pur-
chased the M. T. Torsen stock of
jewelry, cut-glass. hand-painted china,
watches, clocks, etc., and continued
closing out this stock during the
holidays.
In closing out we have been making
room for our new jewelry stock, which
we are are now getting in. We expect
to soon have new, complete and up
to-date stock of jewelry, cut-glass,
hand painted china and everything
pertaining to the jewelry business.
In conducting this department we
are under no additional expense, such
as rent, light, heat and many other
items, in fact we are able to conduct
this branch at practically no addi-
tional expense. This affords us an
opportunity of selling this line at a
very close margin of profit. 1t is not
our intention to run a cut price
iewelry store, but we can and will sell
thoroughly reliable goods at mode
rate profit. Reliable goods will be
our first consideration and our prices
will be as low as obtain in any town
or city in TIE state.
While we have disposed of the
greater. portion of the Torsen stock,
we still have many beautiful articles
that will be closed out this month at
very low prices.
Attic we expect to conduct a
thoroughly equipped jewelry store, we
wish to assure you our drug business
will receive our verv best attention
at all times, we still Intend to conduct
the best drug store in northeastern
Iowa.
We are quite sure you will always
be able to find what you want here for
our stock is quite large and varied
and includes, besides the best and
purest drugs the market affords, a
we'll selected stock of wall paper,
paints and oils, books and stationery,
and splendid assortment of sundries
and toilet articles, etc.
We thank you for past favors and
hope we may continue to serve you.

County Fair Meeting.

Considering the condition of the
roads, there was a good attendance at
the county fair meeting at the court
house ON Saturday afternoon, when
the committee in charge of the matter
of organizing stock company and
purchasing grounds reported very
satisfactory progress. After some
discussion AS to methods and fair in
terests in general this committee was
continued for further work, and the
meeting adjourned to the call of the
president. 1t is hoped that the stock
may be distributed generally through
out the city of DEBORAH and the county,
and as many as possible will become
interested in the revival of the old
fashioned fair, and that the fair next
fall may be made record breaker in
the history of this society. 1t can be
if only the people of the county will
take the interest they should in the
matter.
