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.

women and children assembled at the
depot to get a glirnso at the black
champion, but they were disappointed
for ho did not make an nppearnnco,

enger on tho train said Johnson had
gotten oir for a walk at ench station,
and wliilo at Ognlnlla had received
word not to get off nt North Platte be
cause thoy were "laying for him."
Whether this story had nnything to do
with his failure to appear is not known.
