the complaints of many travellers, or:
dered the Pullman company to appear
before it November 19, and explain
its practices, rules and regulations.

passengers Tins in figuring porters'
wages.
Why upper berths are pulled down
when not occupied, making lower
berths stuffy and cramped.
Why the answer mo lowers left,

take the next morning.
Why passenger cannot get his
berth made up when he wants it, but
must await the porters' pleasure.
Why berths so often are sold to
more than one assenger.

It is possible that the disturbance
being raised by the bankers of the
state becaue of claimed over assess
ment in taxation will result in some.
thing approaching a full valuation of
property in the state. There should
be some method Of Furnishing tax
evasion, and the man who works out
a scheme for securing a full valuation
will have the gratitude of the state.
