We are credlbly Informed that

one. too. that In welcome In It's
beneficial effects, 1t is true that
It has decreased the revenue Of the
railways derived from travel but
on the other hand It has dealt q
severe blow to those big city mcr-
chants who depended on large
custom from points fifty or u hun

In smaller communities are already
realizing that they are helped by
tho change.
While tho railway fares were low
there dwelt u class of people In
each community who thought them
selves smart In going to larger
places to do their trading, It was
plebian to buy anything much AT
