Master Mechanic Malone OF the

undergoing repairs and being rebuilt
go far as necessary for passenger and
freight service on the Union Pacific
and Oregon Short Line roads. This
work will be pushed to completion as
early as possible and will result in the
employment of every available man
who can work to advantage In the To-
cal shops during the present month.
While these engines all belong 20
the Hartman system OF roads. the
work being done on each is looked
upon as outside business and the ex-
pense of repairing them Is chargeable
to the companies owning and operat-
ing the motive power-and Is entirely
outside Of the regular monthly apDro-

The benefits derived from this ont-

Three passenger trains OF the Ore
