One of the features of the improved delivery will bo that commodities, which are re ceived during the night, wi l be check ed directly into the wagons, instead of being put into the warehouse. This will be effected by the drivers leaving their wagons backed up to the load ing platform when they quit work in the afternoon. (This will mean from three to four hours quicker delivery in the city. | Two Stations When this building is completed the company expects to transfer its present business and up town office corps from the up towm station to the enlarged new station. The up town •.office on South Dargan street will bo maintained for the convenience of the public. „ , | The express company is understood to have determined positively on these Improvements, and its plans are being held up only for some conclud ing details. However the improve ments are expected to be made proba bly within the next six months, or sooner if possible. With the erection of this big plant the American Railway Express Com pany expects Florence wil have fa-; cilities second to none in proportion to her size and volume of busines!!. The determination of the Express company to make these improvements marks another recognition of the pos sibilities of Florence as a distribut ing point in this section. oid LOCAL POLITICS ARE VERY QUIET POLIT.CAL POT HASN'T EVEN BEGUN TO SIMMER.
