Tho fact is tho averugo newspaper should be thanked for the things not published Instead of cen sored for what It does. Tho Times Herald Is no exception to this rule. !

In somo Instances thero la no apparent rea son for being so far behind the shod ulo time. To bo sure thero havo been many car loads of stock ship ped during thu past aoveral weeks and we understand thore are several moro yet to be shipped, but It Is not always tho Hhlpmout of stock that oooms to delay tho train. It Is very Incouvonlont and causes much ud verso criticism ns thero Is an Impression Hint the train could ha brought into Crane nearer sched ule time. Tho train is rarely on tlmo In coming In nnd It Is gottlng to be quite a Joko among thoso who know of tho circumstances. Just herauae it la it lirnnrh lino Is no reason to "monkey" along behind schedule, which la slow enough at beat.
