VOLUNTARY REDUCES FARE
L. d N. Announces New Fare Of Two
And q Half Cents q Mile

The Louisville g. Nashville Railroad
Company, last week announced its in
tention to reduce, in the immediate flu
ture, mot later than May l, 1910 pas
senger fares on its lines in the State
Of Kentucky to a maximum Of 2 Ia
cents per mile. This action on the part
Of Kcntucky's principal rail carrier is
voluntary, and is taken in order to
equalzc the rates in its home state
with the rates effective or to be made
effective on or before the date mention
ed in the States OF Tennessee and Ala
bama.
This company states that it adheres
to its belief that a 3 cent rate fare is
not wholly remunerative and is not I'M
fair to the public. Nevertheless, in
difference to public opinion, particu-
larry in other states, the management
has decided 10 apply Tie lower rate in
the hope that increased volume of traf-
fic will save material losses, and pursu-
ant to promises heretofore given the
people Of Kentucky it proposes to
place Kentucky on the same basis as
other States. Should the reduction
prove disastrous, the company will APP
peal to the railroad commission for
such readjustments as will be fair TN
der all conditions.
The reduction to be made will apply
to all of the lines operated by the
Louisville & Nashville Railroad Com
pany for its own account in the state
OF Kentucky, with the exception of
few branches and new lines on which
the passenger business is not now re-
munerative or is conducted at loss.
The reduction will be made effective
on lines which now are producing over
nine tenths of the Company's total pas
senger earnings in the State of Ken
lucky; thus will affect nine tenths OF
the Company's passenger business.
The reduction proposed in Kentucky
will not apply on interstate travel be-
tween points within the state, but will
also apply on interstate traffic over the
same lines to and from points within
the state and through the state; also
as similar reductions have been or are
to he made on the principal lines of
travel in the state of Tennessee and
Alabama. the effect on interstate trav-
el on the lines of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad Company will be
to substantially establish a maximum
fare of IL cents per mile from the
Ohio river to the Gulf of Mexico.
Some idea of the reductions to be
made by the Company in its passenger
fares may be had when it is under
stood that the reduction in Kentucky
Tennessee. and Alabama will repre-
sent an annual reduction in passenger
revenues OF about 100000. In Ken
lucky alone, the annual reduction in
revenues will amount to about $780,
600 on interstate traffic, and about
S250.O00 on interstate traffic. or to
total amount of about $380,0O0.

One Of the saddest deaths that has
occurred in this community in many
years, was that on Monday morning

When we consider the beautiful and
consistent Christian life. which Mrs.
Pence had always lived. we can but
say Death is delightful; death is dawn

MISS MARY BRUCE NEW
P0sTMIsTRsss HERe


The daily papers printed a dispatch
from Washington last week that the
name OF Miss Mary Bruce had been
sent to the Senate by the president for
appointment as postmistress of Stan
ford. This was the first official an
nouncement Of the selection Of Miss
Bruce for the local office for the next
four years, but il had been expected
for some time that Congressman Har-
vey Helm would recommend her and
the appointment is in every way a
popular one, notwithstanding the fact
that there were a number of others who
sought the privilege of handling Uncle
Sans business here.
The term of Postmaster j. c. Flor
eIse expires early this month bn. Il 's
not vet known just when his successor
will be sworn in nor who her assistant
will he. Postmaster Florence has pro-
badly longer record OF service than
any other postmaster in the state for
the class of the office, as he is just
rounding out his fourth term and has
had an official life Of sixteen years,
during which he has proven himself an
efficient officer in every way. He has
not decided just yet whether he will
go into business or farm, it is under
stood.
Stanfords new postmistress is one Of
the most popular young women in this
part Of the state and is in every way
competent to perform the duties which
she will assume. She is the daughter
OF that sterling democrat, Col. !. M.
Bruce, and for a number of years has
acted as secretary to Congressman
Helm at his office here
