the age of sixty years and who have
been twenty years or more in service,
may retire on pensions. They may
be retired at the option of the COM
pany when they have reached the age
of fifty-five years and have been
twenty-five years or more in service.
The pension age of female employees
is in each case five years younger
than that of male employees. Any
employee who has been thirty years
in service, regardless of age, may be
pensioned on the approval of the
president of the company.
The amount of the pension is auto
matically based on the years of SER
vice and the amuont of pay, and
will be on per cent. of the average
annual pay for ten years, multiplied
by the number of years of service.
Therefore, man who has been thir-
ty years in service would get thirty
per cent. Of the average salary which
he had been receiving during his
last ten years of service. No pension
will be less than $4,000 month.

FLAGSTAFF. AriZ.. July 25.-NeVer in the history of northern Arizona have conditions been more favorable than at present Abundant rains have made the cattle and sheep men glad, the mills are running to capacity and every one is feeling the benefits of prosperity The only cloud is the possibility of a reduction in the tariff and the return of conditions similar to those of the last democratic ad- ministration, when sheep sold as low as B cents each. The lumber ln- dustry, too. would suffer by a re duction in the tariff. The FlagStatt Lumber Manufacturing company. with a capacity of 9O-125 M. per day, has been forced to put on a night crew in the box factory, and it is thought full night crew will be working Tn all departments in few days
