CROOK, DENTIST, jj Graduato Northwestern University. L Oillce over McDonald Stato Bank To the General Public. In answer to tho editorial from the Sioux City Tribune and published in tho Omaha Bee under date of July 1st 1910, headed "Lost in tho Shuffle," will say that in justice to ourselves as conl dealers of North Plntto wo wish to correct tho statement made in this article. This editorial states that about two years ago the freight rates from Hanna and Rock Springs woro reduced $1.00 per ton on Hanna and Rock Springs conl to this point, which is correct. This change in freight rates went in to effect Juno 1st, 1908. The statement made in this editorial thnt the price of coal was not reduced at this time is Aiisolutkivy False. Eight days Inter, on tho first arrival of coal under the new rate, tho full re duction wns put In effect to consumers and they hnve to this day received tho full benefits of all reductions made. Our books nre open to tho inspection of any interested parties. W. W. BlKGK. Tho C. F. Iddings Co. G. T. FIELD. Authorize Sewer District.
