ON THE SOUTHERN.
J. N. Scale Receives an Important
Promotion.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 19.-
Changes affecting half dozen or
more officials of the Southern railway
were announced to-day. BY the new
arrangement G. IL. Ackert, fourth
vice-president, assumes the addition
al title and responsibilities of general
manager, vice Henry B Spencer, ap-
pointed sixth vice-president, in gener-
al charge of construction and purchas-
ing departments. Mr.. Ackert was
general manager prior to his promo
tion to fourth vice-president several
years ago. and is regarded as one of the
leading railroad men of the country.
]. N. Scale, formerly assistant general
superintendent, with headquart at
Charlotte, N. G., is appointed mana
ger of transportation, with offices in
Washington. This is distinct pro-
motion for Mr.. Scale, who has risen
rapidly in the service of the Southern
railway.
For number Of years Mr.. Scale was
Superintendent of the Mobile and
Ohio, at Jackson, Tenn, and this is
the second promotion in the last six
months. The four new general super
intendents will report to him.
Mr.. Scale has risen rapidly in
the railroad field. The gentleman
has number of warm friends in
this city who take pleasure in
reading this annou n m n t.
Among these are j. G. Reynolds,
proprietor of the Palace Hotel, and
j. Il. Rodgers, travelling for the
Brown Shoe Company, who spends

cent buildings were put in, thus
obviating the old fire traps which
caused the destruction of the old
building.
In August last the new house was
opened with Harry t. Robinson IN
charge, Geo. w. Robinson in the
tailoring department and Joe Rog-
ers and Dan Glenn as statesmen.
The new house was called The
Model, F" and, like its predecessor,
Immediately attracted large and
profitable patronage. In the first
place, the statesmen were the right
kind of men, but the great secret
of success which earned a reputa-
tion for the house was the one
price method. This was the pio-
neer one.price house in Union City.
The system was established by
Robinson, Bransford a. Co. an d
perpetuated by The Model The
rule is religiously and scrupulously
maintained in every transaction
made in the house and it has been
a success from the beginning.
The introduction of the one. price
business in Union City was some
thing like a revolution in our trade.
The merchants we're schooled un-
der the old Jewish system, and af-
ter the Israelites departed this idea

that system customer would some
times buy an article at half the
original price asked for it. The
goods we're marked to cover con-
siderable amount OF per centage,
including rents, taxes, insurance,
heat, light, etc, and the salesman

the largest net profit was the lead
ing talent as counter hopper" 1t
was the prevailing custom, and the
shopper who did not have the price
of an article reduced was ALWAYS
disappointed. This Gust TOM has
been obsolete in the larger cities
for many years. In fact it has been
almost entirely relegated to h e
second. hand clothing districts. The
one. price business ia S taken its
place and completely superseded it
in popularity. OF course the down
town districts have larger prices,
according to location and rate OF
expense, but there is also differ
ence in the grade of goods handled,
the more expensive lines being in
the more pretentious quarters.
The one. price business has had a
long run in the cities, but it was
not until receutly that the ner
chants of Union City had the cour-
age to adopt it, and the credit for it's
introduction goes to Robinson,
Bransford 81 Co., of whom Harry
T, Robinson and Geo. w. Robinson

Harry T, Robinson began busi-
ness here twenty-five years ago as
a merchant tailor, and his name be-
came popular from Cairo to Jack

both as a tailor and merchant.

Up to the time the FIRE occurred
in November, 1906, this house was
occupied by Robinson, Bransford

INTERESTS Of

senator could no any greater damage
to that section of the United States
than to provide that the railways shall
make no provision whatever for the
transportation of laborers for our
farmers during the very busy season.
The farmers whole crop is harvest
ed from the 25th day of July to about
the LIST day of October. If he Is going
to have laborers there at all, then
some provision must be made. I be-
lieve the usual method has been that
the railway gives a special rate and
requires the laborer to bring certifi-
cate of the farmer for whom he has
worked, showing he has given at least
SO many days labor, and then he is
returned home for about one-fifth of
the regular rate of fare.
There are SO many of these exigen-
cies that have to be met that 1t seems
to me 1t would be dangerous to tie up
railroad SO that 1t could not meet
these exigencies, not only in farming
operations, but in many others, such
as mining, irrigation work, and rail-
road work. There are thousands Of
other cases which might possibly be
mentioned In which It would be proper
for the railroads to give reduced rates
where It would be Just az important
as It would be to give the reduced
rates to ministers Of religion, etc.
