DEPOT FOR ANTIOCH
Nebraska State Railway Commission
llulletln States That Agent and
tSatlon to Come
The following article regarding the
erection of a new Turlington depot at
Antiooh and the installation of ' an
ugent is taken fr a the Railway
Commission Bulletin of July 8. The
business referred to in the article ia
the potash Industry, which la rapidly
developing. Generally when this commission is
called upon to investigate the ade
quacy of depot facilities at any Ne
braska town or city and to issue an
order predicated upon its findings, it
finds the complaint of the municipal
ity vigorously resisted by the railway
companies.
During the month of June, how
ever, two complaints of this kind
arose in which an agreeable conclus
ion was reached without the neces
sity of a hearing, the taking of testi
mony, and the issuance of an order.
At Antioch. Nebr., the second sta
tion east of Alliance on the Burling
ton, date for a hearing and all other
arrangements had oen made for a
hearing. The defeudant carrier In
formally presented the fact that a
new Industry was being developed at
, the station in question and that the
j resulting traffic inbound and out
hound would, without doubt, justify
I the construction of a depot building
I and installation of an apent. On this
! account the hearing was postponed
sixty days and in the mean time an
'agent will be undoubtedly installed.
