Sometimes buried landscapes exist
in countries now densely inhabited.
Recent investigation has shown that
one lies beneath the region in England
known as Charnwood forest. The
rocky projections seen there are the
peaks and aretes of a buried mountain
chain belonging to the old rcd sand.

FL0RIDA'S FIGHT FOR CENT
TON PHOSPHATE RATES
Supreme Counts Decision is Expect
ed This Week.

supreme Courts Decision is Expect
ed This Week.
Tallahassee, Oct. 15.--The mandamus
proceedings instituted by the Railroad
Commission in the Supreme Court to
compel the Atlantic Coast Line Rail-
road and the Seaboard Air Line Rail
way to operate 1 cent per ton per
mile freight rate on phosphate between
points wholly within the state, are
awaiting a decision of the court. Tes-
timony was submitted by the railroads
Wednesday in an endeavor to show
that they could not stand the reduction
in phosphate rates ordered by the Rail
road Commission. The case was argued
by counsel Thursday. j. NJ. Bars act
ed as special counsel for the Railroad
Commission, and j. r. Hartridge and
G. p. Raney represented the railroads.
The case Is of considerable interest
as a decision OF the Supreme Court
favorable to the Railroad Commission
will cause such reduction In phos-
phate rates as TO divert phosphate
shipments for export, from seeking an
outlet to the sea through Savannah, to
Fernandina and Jacksonville and other
Florida ports. Savannah is now and
has been for years handling the bulk
of phosphate shipments for export.
This has been because the freight rates
on phosphate to Savannah have been
very materially less, mileage consid-
cred, than they have been to Florida
ports. Jan. TO- on petition of the Fer
nandina Board of Trade, the Railroad
Commission ordered a reduction In
phosphate rates. The railroads refused
TO put into operation the commissions
rate, and the matter has been pending
in the Supreme Court since March.
Thus far the Supreme Court has sus-
tanned the contentious by the Railroad
Commission and the final decision is
awaited with much interest. The de-
cision is expected within the next
week. kilograms are being received
at the Office OF the Railroad Commits
sion daily asking concerning the de-
cision.

SOUTHWEST GEORGIA
DRYING UP
streams and Wells Failing aud Cat,
tie Are Dying.

Albany, Ca, Oct. 15.--News has been
received from Baker county and from
other parts OF Southwest Georgia, that
the drought has reached the stage
where cattle are dying OF thirst. A
party who has just returned to Albany
from a trip through Baker county,
says that he found conditions there far
more serious than he had dreamed,
and I'm localities remote from Flint
river and other permanent streams,
water IS distressingly scarce. Wells
have gone dry and others are falling
springs have ceased to flow, and ponds
that were never without water before
have their beds exposed to the sun
Many country people are Obliged TO
haul water several miles. and the
strictest economy in its use has become
necessary.
Many farmers have driven their cat
tie from old pastures TO localities
where water Is to be obtained, but II
Is stated that not all have been able
to provide relief. On one OF the farms
which the Albanian visited three COWS
had just died OF thirst. Unless rain
comes IN a few days, Il will DO neces-
sary for all cattle TO be driven 20 the
river, creeks or remaining ponds.

Weekly stock Letter Says it is Stin
A Bull Market.


New York, Oct. 15.-As predicted in
our letter of last Sunday, we have had
another bull week in the stock mar
ket. All of the standard rails and
most of the trust stocks have made
substantial gains. Notably Louisville
and Nashville, st. Paul and Copper.
We called attention to Press Steel last
week, when it was 35, and advised our
friends to buy 1t. 1t is now 42K. We
have inside information on this stock.
1t will go on a per cent. basis. 1t
now pays 4 per cent. 1t should sell
at go before Xmas. Look out for
Railway Steel Spring Company, now
quoted at rs. An investment in this
will pay big money. 1t now pays 2
per cent. on the par Value. We ex-
pect 40 for it shortly. This is pure
and simple, bull stock market, and is
going to continue so for long time.
Everything is favorable for it. Look
out for the trust stocks. They are
discounting ROosevelt's election. Four
more years of undisturbed protection
should put them on a higher level. In

and drawing salary, you would not
consider it your duty to see whether
the city was entering into contract
for payment of a hundred or a thou
sand dollars when the specifications
called for but Twenty-Five? A. Well of
course Mr.. Butler that is a matter of
opinion as to what l considered my
duty, but as l stated before, was not
an executive officer. but simply clerk,
and everyone knows what the duties
of an Office of that kind consist of. l
had no power to sign contracts, no
power to bind the city in any shape,
manner or form. The mayor was the
executive officer and l was only sup
posed to attest his signature and affix
the seal, and whenever the mayor told
me to do it did. He was the man who
had the authority, and whenever he d.
rected me to do thing l considered
it my duty to do SO. OF course if I
had thought anyone was trying to de-
fraud the city, or that signing the con-
tract was not right, I would have called
the attention of the council to it.
