A Sensible Change.

An evidence OF how people appreciate
the action of President B. F. Bush, OF
the Missouri Pacific, Iron Mountain, in
abolishing the red tape that existed in
the Claim Department, Is shown by an
incident reported from Kansas. A lum-
Der company in that stale received a
carload OF lumber and paid freight on
the basis OF The weight as shown by the
invoice. They7unloaded the car and re-
weighed the lumber and found it weigh
ed considerable more than claimed in
the invoice. Thereupon they returned
to the Missouri Pacific Company 10,
the amount OF freight which should
have been charged in addition 10 what
was. In making the return they stated
1.-THE Company is treating US absolutely
square on all our claims. and has given
its local representative authority to set
tie with US here, without having to fight
Gye or six months for OR money, As
your company is SO fair with US, we in
tend TO treat it just as square, and send
you herewith $ii. which Justly be-
longs to it, for the additional freight
that should have been charged on the
car of lumber" Several months ago,
Mr., Bush, finding how much red tape
and delay existed in the Claim Depart
ment, inaugurated system after his
own ideas. He changed the arrange
ment from departmental to division
al plan, and abolished the Claim De-
partment as an organization, making il
a part Of the Legal department, 10 ex-
pedite settlements. He also had 1t ar
ranged that all ordinary claims could be
settled at once by the local station
agents or division officials, without 60
ing to the delay of referring matters tC
| headquarters.

the time 65 cents on the bonded debt,
school and water, while II all the
propositions carry, your rate will be
55 cents, which can gradually be re
duced as the assessed valuation and
income increases.
Your taxes In the future will be from
ten to fifteen cents lower ON the bond
ed debt, than they have teen during
the last ten years, even at 55c.
We can afford all the improvements,
therefore we urge the voters to vote in
the interest OF the entire community,

PROPOSITIONS.
One taxpayer or citizen has as much
