Stuart Patterson is chairman, has nearly completed its pre liminary report, which will be submitted to President Cassatt in a few days. The books and records of the company have been under examination by 100 experts of the New York Audit Company for the purpose of compiling data wanted by the committee. Where information wanted was not readily available, clerical forces of the company were detailed to get it. It is stated that particular attention has been given to car distribution, pur chase of supplies and contract work. It is not expected that a final report will be submitted by the committee until the November meeting of the Board of Direc tors. This is desired in advance of the convening of Congress, in the hope that any further unfavorable legislation may be forestalled. FOR SALE Small house. 1 acre ground Pleasant home addition. A snap.

IT PAYS TO PAY TAXES NOW Sheriff Childers is busy this week re ceiving taxes. Next Monday is the time limit and those who fail to pay their trxes by five o'clock of Monday afternoon, will suffer the usual penalty. The extra costs that will be added to the regular tax after that hour, will be a ten percent penalty wi th the additiodal cost of 12 percent interest from the 3 day of April 1906 to date on the amou it of the tax. It can be readily calculated how the reg-j ular tax will increase uselessly by lettingj. the payment slip by. X3 m WHAT Will you have for your dinner today.
