could not see any advantage in such
a combination in Denver and decided
to make the fight us Republicans. The

AN OCCASION NOT TO BE NEG.
LECTED.

Pueblo owes it to President Benja-
min f. Bush of the Missouri Pacific
to give him, socially, the best time it
can possibly give him on the occa-
sion Of his visit here Saturday.
But Pueblo has another and more
important duty to perform than the
social duty. For years Pueblo has
been seeking to secure from the Gould
lines fair treatment. Previous ad-
ministrations have all refused or neg
elcted to remove the Determinations
against Pueblo in favor of Denver.
But President Bush belongs to the
new order of railroad men. He is
one of those who believes in playing
no favorites, but in so administering
the road as to permit of the fullest
development of every section tributary
to it.
Pueblo, therefore, will be derelict
in its duty if it does not call to Mr..
Bush's attention Saturday the things
.sueDlo wants. They are as follows:
The location here Of the joint shops
of the Missouri Pacific-Denver q Rio
Grande system. Pueblo is the logical
point for these shops. 1t is at the
junction Of the two roads. The steel
needed for repairs is made here. Both
time and money would be saved TO the
road by locating the shops here.
The same difforential to points in
Pueblo territory west OF Alamosa on
second, third, fourth and fifth class
freight that Pueblo now rightly en-
joys on first class and less than fifth
class freight. The railroads admitted
the justice of Pueblos contention
when first class rates were reduced.
A day passenger service into the
San Luis valley and into western Colo
rado.
The standardizing Of the Marshall
pass line from Salida to Montrose, and
of the southern Colorado division from
Alamosa to Durango.
Pueblo's destiny cannot be fully
realized until these demands are
granted. 1t has been almost a Yea
now since President Bush was eject
cd and though Pueblo has been prom
ised many things, nothing has been
realized from all these premises. In
stead the office of the general super
intendent has been removed to Denver
1t may be many months before Pue-
bio again has an opportunity to pre-
sent her demands to President Bush
By all means, therefore, he should be
apprised of just what Pueblo wants
and of what Pueblo intends, eventual
ly, to get.
All Pueblo asks is justice, and this
man of President Bushs sense OF
fairness ought to be willing to grant
