TWO HUNDRED
BUBBLE WAGONS

This week the county sheriff's de-
partment issued automobile license No.
200. that number being given TO the
new machine brought in by DR.. Her
bert. This makes ninety-seven ma
chimes registered since the present adj
ministration went into office, all new
machines. while a number of the small
Ter numbers have been transferred
during the year from old machines
that have been put out of commission
to new and larger ones. The two hun
dred automobiles here are in use and
for the most part big touring cars.
Two machines were registered this
week, one getting the 200 number. the
biggest number issued by Clerk Rose,
and the other being recorded as No.
104. the smallest number issued by that
official. Frank Lillis got the small
number and was highly delighted to
have it hanging from his new Franklin
hack machine, as for years he has
driven hack number Il about the city,
and the number he now sports is his
old number with the cipher. land that
is nothing as he says. The reason why
| this number was available is the very
simple reason that it had never been
issued before. in spite of the fact that
/ No. los has been out for over a year,
being the first one issued after the
new force moved into the police sta
ton. Rose. when he took over the
automobile books, was in doubt as to
the last number issued and rather
than make the mistake of giving two
machines the same number, skipped
104 and labeled his first machine los
The number has been blank on the
books ever since until this week.

Formaldehyde is most commonly

of all ordinary foods is most subject

While it prevents the souring of milk
it does not retard the growth of dis

danger of its use lies in the fact that
the growth of acid forming bacteria

interests comes the announcement
that the property will still remain

a number of employees being laid off,
more will be required to operate the

The officers of the road will remain
the same, with the exception of Presi-
dent Trumbull, who says he is glad to
retire. and who has issued the first
statement of the present policy of the
road 1t is now planned to carry out
a great number of western extensions
contemplated by both the lines Pres
ident Trumbull, in a statement to Vice
President Parker, said:

held continuously for about seven
years a considerable interest in them.
During this period there have been
many vicissitudes of business in the

the lines have been expanded in a con-
sentative way in strategic situation
and they serve a growing country. The
net earnings of the properties are
about ten times what they were the
first year.

Roads Cannot Charge More for
Larger Car.
NO ARBITRARY RATES.

no ARBITRARY RATES.

By a recent decision of the Interstate
commerce commission, the railroads
have been driven from a position re
garding minimum carloads which, had
it been maintained, might have opened
the door wide for Determinations and
wrought considerable hardship to the
smaller class of shippers.
The decision was in the matter of
complaint of the American Lumber and
Manufacturing company against the
Southern Pacific road. the Lake Shore
and the Bessemer & Lake Erie. The
complaint arose out of the car famine
height the complainant ordered from
the Southern Pacific road a car of co.,
600 pounds capacity in which to ship
about 10000 pounds of lumber from the
for the car of the type ordered, under
the arrangements Of the roads, was 49,,
600 pounds.
The railroad, after much delay, sup
piled an 10000 pound capacity car, the
minimum shipment in which should
have been $4,000 pounds. There was con-
siderable negotiating between the rail-
road and the shipper over the use OF
this car, and then it was accepted only
on the understanding that it was be-
cause a smaller car could not be pro-
vided, and that the car should be re-
garded as $4,000 pound one for the
When the shipment and delivery had
been made and the shipper was called
upon for a settlement of the freight
bill. he found that the railroad COM
pany rebudiated the agreement made
with its agent and required payment
on the basis of a $4,000 pound minimum
ear. The bill was paid under protest,
the case carried to the interstate COM
merce commission, and that body has
just ordered a refund to be made to
the shipper, amounting to $125, the
amount Of the overcharge, with inter
est.
With the decision there was handed
down an order directed to all the roads
doing an Interstate business that they
insert in all their tariffs clause pro-
viding that when a car of a specified
size is ordered and cannot be furnished
and a larger one is substituted, the legi-
innate rate for the shipment shall be
that for which the car was ordered.
This rule is to apply not only to lum-
Der shipments, but to shipments of ev-
cry kind.

WOULD INCREASE SALARY.
Omaha Commercial Club Takes Action
EaXOring Mail Clerks.

Omaha, Neb., Dec 25.-Realizing thai
their business interests depended in
certain measure on the promptness and
railway mail service, and that in order
to keep it up to the present high stand
ard. an increase in salary for the men
in that branch of the government
should be given, the executive commit
tee of the Commercial club, at it's reg
ular weekly meeting last night, adopted
resolutions calling on the members of
congress to use every effort to secure
an increase in the annual postoffice APP
preparation bill. 1t was pointed out
that the average salary of a mail clerk
was 1000 a year, and on account of
the demands made on them, entailing
long hours away from home and the
necessary high expenses incurred on
the road, they should be granted an in
crease.
