The following has been received b
Mrs. Butterfield. Mrs. Lord, ou

again to Mrs. Burley to know If W

Salt Lake City,
August 18, 1908
| Mrs. A. G.. Butterfield,
Weiser, Idaho.
Dear Madam. Replying to yours
18th inst. You can readily under
stand that there must be some uni
form rule to be applied In the grant
ing Of reduced rates for the various
conventions. If this was not the case
1t would be question of but very
short time before some organization
had good grounds for complaint on
the charge of discrimination.
II there will not be total attend
ance of fifty or more from outside
points at the Moscow meeting, re-
gret that 1t will be impossible for us
to give you any encouragement In the
way of special rates. If you desire
rates under this condition, please let
me know in time SO that we may Is
sue the necessary tariff to comply
with the law, and at the same time
give me the exact dates of the meet
ing.
Yours truly,
d. e. BURLEY.
The following letter received by

term of Office.
