1t is more pleasant to say nice things
than to find fault and newspaper al
ways likes to hold out the bright side Of
things to the public rather than the other
side. For this reason the Index would like
to agree with that in6nitesimal part Of our
population who say that our railroad ser
vice as now arranged IS better than il
ever has been but actual experience does
not warrant it. When the new schedule
was FIRST announced, we were led to be-
ieve that It was excellent but the first
few days Of il proved very clearly that
the former arrangement was one hundred
per cent better for the people Of Barber
county. 1t doe. seem that after an the
people Of Barber county have done for the
railroad company they should have de-
cent freight and passenger service. The
Santa Fe has no regular hours and the

sometimes Is three days coming hom At

that Is radically wrong IS the fad that t
costs nearly twice as much to 60 to
