mission follows and explains itself:
Hon. Edward T. Taylor,
Glenwood Springs, Colorado.
My Dear Mr.. Taylor:
In regard to your esteemed favor of
August 25th, docketed and designated
as Informal Complaint No. lag, in re-
exchange of mileage books on railroads
with the state of Colorado.
This matter has been the subject of
correspondence and conferences with
oficias of the Denver l. Rio Grande
Railroad company in an endeavor to
have the matter settled amicably in
harmony with your expressed views.
The officials of the Colorado Midland
road were not consulted In regard II
this matter, as we had previous knowl-
edge Of the fact that they are willing
and very anxious to exchange tickets
with the Denver l. Rio Grande Rail
road company.
The last conference between the
commission and the Rio Grande people
was held short time ago. Mr.. E. n.
Clark and Mr.. F. A. Wadleigh appeared
for the railroad company, at which
time the whole question Of interchange
able tickets was discussed. The eon.-
mission endeavored in every way -
induce that company to voluntarily
meet the situation, which they have
coasistently refused to Dc.
The commission has concluded that

E. C. Kingsbury and NJ. ]. Mayes
have formed a co-partnership for the
practice of law and this week establish
ed offices in the Brown building at 81
Grand avenue.
The new alignment was effected be-
cause of feeling on the part of the
two gentlemen that Glenwood offered
a good field for another law firm, and
they will seek to fill whatever niche
there may be and take care of such
business As may come to them.
Both gentlemen are well known in
Glenwood and Garfield county and ID
this way have an advantage over
strangers who might enter the fiell.
Mr.. Kingsbury established law pfac-

The device is one Of the very latest

this was the conclusion of the commis-
sion when it made its order in Case

mission vs.. the Argentine l. Gray's
Peak Railway Company, ct al, decided
May sth, 1918, q copy of which is here
with enclosed and the last paragraph
Of which reads As follows:
''It is the opinion of the com
mission that the family mileage
books should be interchangeable
as between the various defendants,
and, where feasible, we respectful
ly recommend this practice, but
shall not order.''
While the commission realizes that
the exchange of tickets between the
Denver L Rio Grande and the Colorado
Midland roads would result in gres t
benefit to the people living in the
Grand valley, and are willing and anx-
ious to do anything in its power to
bring this about, We feel, however, in
the light of precedents and adverse
judicial determination of this question, /,
that we are without power and author
ity in the premises. If you are ia
miliar with anv decisions contrary to
this belief, We would be more than gla !
to have them communicated to US and
will hold this case open waiting your

these districts may collect from rail
roads. In many of them our road "a!
other foreign corporations pay more
than 80 per cent of the school tax.
There's the Cebolla school distract,
officially district No. 25 of Gunnisol
comfy, which is composed of but one
family, the Carpenters. Mr.. Carpenter
IS chairman of the school committee,
Mrs. Carpenter and Elder Son Carpen-
ter are the other two school directors.
Daughter Carpenter is the school teach
er, and two years ago Younger Son Car
penter was the only pupil.
Last year it looked as if the school
might have to be closed. Younger Son
had graduated. The directors were IN
quandary. They held many consulta-
tions and finally = pupil was importe
from Idaho Springs. The school still
runs merrily.
"This one-room, one-teacher, one-pu-

manages to consume thirtyfive tons Of
coal each year, although four would be
plenty to heat the room through the
winter.
"Why don't the taxpayers kick'
They do, 90 per cent of them at least.
The Denver l. Rio Grande is the 80,
and only per cent of all the school
tax is paid by property owners in the
district. Not single Rio Grande en-
ployee benefits by the school.
"This school district has fine pi
ano. Why not. It's on the Rio Grande
in more senses than one!
"The school house is used as a sort
of club, which accounts for the waste
of thirty-one tons of coal. We pay,
and we kick as hard as can be, but
there's no use.
"Down in Pitkin county / refused to
allow the road to pay its school tax ir
one district because of the ridiculous
expense incurred. l found that the
school directors had charged $30.l5 for
pane of glass. l got an itemized
statement, found that Is cents was the
cost of the glass, and that three direci
ors had charged $40 each for trip tc
Aspen to buy the pane.

welcome chance to show their books
in court. They didn't t sue, and We CON
promised by paying about two-third'
of our assessment.
"The reason was the usual one. The
Colorado & Midland and the Denver s
Rio Grande paid $l,2O2 out of $l,22;
school taxes levied, and don t believe
any attempt was made to collect the
odd twenty three dollars.
"Colorado isn't any worse than the
surrounding states in this regard. The

but it is sl25,O0O in debt.

for the event and special offerings are
extended to the people of this city and
vicinity during this eventful week.
The jubilee itself has proven to be a
great success, as is shown in the num-
Der of redeemed books in the windows
of the Manhattan.
Owing to the large number of per-
sons desiring to guess on this stack
of redeemed books, it has been decid-
ed to continue the guessing contest
to Saturday. This will give an even
larger number of persons time to
place their guess. The contest is
absolutely free, It costing you nothing
to guess. Just inside the door of the
Manhattan are guessing blanks upon
which you write your guess, sign your
name and address and drop it in the
box. There are ten valuable prizes
which are offered as follows: First
prize, 1000 S. and H. stamps; second
prize. 500 S. and H. stamps; three
third prizes of 200 S. and H stamps,
and five fourth prizes of 100 S. and H.
stamps, making q total of ten prizes in
all. Inasmuch as it costs you nothing
to guess, no purchase of any kind be-
ing necessary for you to try it, it will
pay you to enter your guess before
Saturday night, when the deciding of
the contest will take place.
Today, some time between IL and 2
o'clock, there will be a boy and girl
somewhere on Franklin square, and the
first person who comes to them and
says: fAre you the S. and H. boy or
girl2" will be handed 1000 stamps
free. This will interest a lot Of stamp
collectors.
AS a whole. the jubilee week has
proven to be a great success not only
for the stamp company but also to the
general buying public, who have re-
ceived many special offerings.
