William Carlisle train bandit,
ontcred tho Westorn Union of

a message to tho Union Pacific
thnnklng them for the haul
mado from passengers in a
holdup of ono ofho Union Pa-
clflc'a trains Tuesday night.
TO
An entire redisricting of city pre
cincts, made necessary by recent leg
islative action, effective January 1
providing for thje holding of city
and county elections at the same
time and place thereafter In cities of
more than 2000 and necessitating
conformance of boundary- lines of
precincts within the city limits, will
bo begun at onco by the county court
and city council.
The change will operate to in
crease the number of precincts in
side the city from 10 to probably
14. Some of the present precincts
are too heavily populated and will
bo split up, and precincts on thy
edges of the city, at present lapping
over the city boundary, will have to
bo rearranged so as to bring them
Inside the limits.
To take care of voters jur ou-
sldo the city limits on the west, it
is proposed to establish a new out
side precinct, called Orlndalf, from
territory In the direction of Keno,
and on the south a new precinct,
called Altamont, and In that dlrcc
tion, will be made.
Other changes, may be found nec
essary when the maps are spread out
and the re-districting committee cets
down to the actual work of drav.or.
boundary lines.
