CIRCULARS CAUSE TROUBLE

p. Political circulars are coming into
the postoffce in such large numbers and
so poorly addressed that it has been
necessary to add ten clerks to the regu,,
lar force to sort and readiness them.
Postmaster W. D. Hale estimates the
total number of these. circulars at be-
tween 10000 and 10000.
Evidently those sending them out are
working with "a list Of names procured
two years ago or else an obsolete direc-
tory, as "a large percentage of the circu-
lars are misdirected. thus almost doub-
ling the. work Of getting them to their
destination. Much of this matter is
sealed and goes first-class.
When he saw the difficulty confront
ing his force, Major Hale at once wired
to Washington for authority. to take on
ten more clerks. The reply came yes
Friday afternoon and the extra force
went to work vest With this re-
enforcement the office will be able to

RA|LR0OD RATE LAW
PROVES 4 GOLD BRICK
EASTERN ROADS PROFIT AT
WESTERN EXPENSE.
New Measure Enables Established
Lines in Settled Portion OF Country
to Reduce Fares, While Northwest
Are Prevented from Giving Land
Seekers Excursions.

AS construction Of tn eclauses in the
new railroad Law. progresses, western
railroad men are beginning to discover
that the law itself is discriminatory.
They find every day new phases that
form cumulative evidence to the effect
that the law favors the east rather than
the west. y r
Apparently, hewesterners have been
caught asleep, or were outgeneraled by
Representatives of the eastern lines. The
law has been framed, it seems, in accord
with conditions arising in thickly set
tied country, while the same provisions
IN many cases, are detrimental to a
rapidly growing country where differ
must apply to carry forwar- the gro
gressive work that must go on to devel-
OPP the resources of the new regions.
The passenger rate and the pass re-
strlctlon clauses illustrate most clearly
where the eastern roads have won, in
the opinion of railroad men. Effect of
the new law has already been noticed
roads in reducing the maximum passen-
ger. rate. from 3 to PA cents mile,
with, 2-cent-a- mile transferable mile
age book on sale, which makes the rate
practically 2 ceats.
=. Conditions j. the west, where new
lines are beinl built and where initial
expenses are e1sarmous. are entirely diff
traversed by the three lines named.
They run thru q densely populated ter
sltory and their passenger travel is
fixed. The 2-cent rate may yield suffi-
clent revenue where lines are thoroly
established and are in fine condition.
In the west, where long distances lie
between stations and where one may

feet of the railroad law and the state
legislation which is following its en-
actment.
Land Business Suffers.
Western lines are particularly hard
hit in the matter Of colonization and
homeseeking rates. The fine hand OF
eastern railroad men shows in partic
ularlY glaring way to the western men
who begin to believe they see strong
railway motive in the passage of the
law.
In the east the country is thickl1
populated and local landseekcrs' rates
are an unknown thing. Under the new
law the western railroads believe tina,
they cannot make special rates to colo
nists, homeseekers and land hunters
unless it is thru the use Of a particu
larly long bit Of red tape. They repor
that they are cut OIL of he giving OF
free transportation to land men, wht
accompany settlers to the west. II
that event the land business, as carried
on now will fall off and the new coun
try settlement will suffer-
The motive Of the eastern people
can readily been seen as they fount
that the, special land rates Of the west
ern lines were draining their territory
with no due return. -

FRANCE.

T ISToRY shows that the great pc Fl litical upheaval in France more than one hundred years ago was the result of conditions similar in many respects to those now prevailing in Rus sia.
 Like Russia France supported a great body of nobility and d priesthood, taxes paid by the masses were high, wages were exceedingly low and the common people had practically no voice in the government.
 There were 230OO monks in France 60,- 900 eurates and vicars, 310OO nuns, 2j0O monastaries, 1900 convents and 6O.O0O churches and chapels In all there were 10000 persons in the religious establlsh- ments of France. Like the great religious dead weight now borne by the Russian people, this vast body contributed noth- ing toward the welfare and prosperity of France.
 There were also 10000 nobles in France, while the noble families numbered 30, GOO. On each square league of territory and for each 1000 inhabitants there was one castle and one noble family Almost pre- cise1y similar conditions now prevail in Russia, where the great mass of landed proprIetors hangs like a dead weight on the country

Truth About "aen-Hur,' .

From Harper's Weekly.
 How Ben-Hur came to be written and published has been told many times, but unfortunately few of the prevalent tales concerning this remarkable work are in accordance with the facts. Recently it has been stated in a popular magazine that Ben-Hur belonged to the long list of manuscripts which met with repeated rejection" This is not the fact. The story was first submitted to Harper X Brothers for publication and promptly accepted. The book, moreover, was a reasonable. though not a remarkable success in its first year The fact which surprised the publishers was that it's sales were doubled in the year following. It advanced from year to year by geo metrical progression until it became the most widely selling book in American llt- erature. Many interesting facts con corning the inspiration and growth of Ben-Hur are set duwn by General Wal lace in his autobiography, which is one of the important forthcoming publea- tions.
