Ho said : "It can't be In any way called i
boycott , The farts nro simply these : SOUK
time ago , when the Union I'aclilc wan tryltu
to got Into the stnto ot Washington , the
Northern Pacific barred them out am
claimed local rates on all business done bj
Hint road , That was before the Union Pa
cillc built Into all the territory It now occu
pics. Tlio Union Pacific appealed to the KI
Grande \VoHtem , the Chicago , Hurlington I
Qulncy , the Denver & Rio Grande and othe
wads in protest .against that action.V
backed them vigorously and helped then
win.
"Some time in April last the Cnlon Paelfl
issued n circular saying they would not re
uelve tlcltets of the llio Grande Western t
any Union Pacific station east or west n
Ogdcn without' the ticket holder paid loci
rates , This was , for ono way only. 15ut fo
homo reason they allowed our round trl
tickets going over one road and returnin
over the other. We concluded , that they dt
that because the round trip ticket bcnulUc
them and they thought tlio one way ticki
would not do so to the same extent. W
therefore came lo the conclusion that if the
would not do business with us on single tri
tickets wo would not do business with the )
on round trip tickets. Wo hesitated forsoni
time about taking their tickets out of on
ofllccs , fearing it might have some Imdoffei
on friendly lined cast of u.s , but wo flnall
got them in consultation on tlio subjec
when they concluded that o were perfect ]
right and they resolved to order the Unto
Pacific tickets out of their ofllces. The ou
come is yet to be seen. "

subscribed to by all interested , but after
discussion of the subject , it was decided '
postpone action until after the meeting i

that after the revision of that ngreemeu
the AVisconstn Central will have no furthi
