This Number of Letter Car
riers and Clerks in Rich
mond Are Affected.
NAMES NOT ANNOUNCED.
1T is HOPED TO GET AN IN
CREASE IN FORCE WITH CLOSE
OF THE PRESENT FISCAL YEAR,
MARCH 81.

There are just fourteen city letter
carriers and postoffice clerks in
Richmond who will benefit by the re-
cent bill passed by the national con-
gress, providing an increase in the
wages, which will go into effect July /.
The per cent is very small considering
the amount of business transacted by
the local office and gives room for
much thought. The -1uncie post Of
flee, which does, or will have done but
little more business, il any. than the
Richmond postoffice during the fiscal
year, not only has more clerks, but al
so carriers, and the question naturally
arises. why is this so? Local postal
men are at loss to understand the rea-
son and although the Richmond office
is badly in need of at least three new
clerks, the postoffice department has
not seen fit to grant the increase. al
though it has been asked for several
times.
May Secure An Increase.
1t is thought, however, that when the
final report is made for the fiscal year
ending the latter part of this month,
the higher postal officials will look
with greater favor on the local office
and give it at least two more clerks.
since they are SO badly needed. At
Nuncie seventeen clerks were affected
by the recent increase, while Richmond
only has fourteen.
Postmaster Spekenhier has up to date
received no names of them who will
benefit by the increase. nor the exact
amounts which they will receive after
the first of July.

increase in the amount of low grade
cotton does not warrant such diff
ference between the better grades and
the lower grades.
The brokers and those who are ac-
customed to sell to the mills certain
grades Of cotton at certain number
Of points above quotations for the
high grade, and certain number Of
points below for the lower grades,
found themselves unable to get
enough Of the higher grades to fill
their contracts, and consequently tho
premium of these grades was advanc-
ed rapidly. And in order to save
themselves, the discount on the lower
grades was made equally as great in
order to make up OH whatever low
grades they delivered for what they
lost in their failure to deliver the
higher grades; and the man who is
holding cotton ought not to submit
to any such an outrage.
If there is such tremendous
amount of low grade cotton, and the
spinners cannot get enough high grade
cotton to fill their contracts, they
should not be allowed to discount the
lower grades to make up for their
loss. Let every holder OF cotton de-
mand for his low strict middling,
good ordinary and ordinary price
reasonably relative to that which is
offered for the high grades. In other
words, if middling cotton is worth
ten cents per pound, demand 3-4 to
8 7-9 for strict low, and from l-8 to
Id off, according to the grades be-
low this. 1t is monstrous for strict
middling cotton to be bringing 10 Sd
and II cents, and strict low middling
cotton bringing from 8 81 to 8 cents.
The world will need all your low
grades as we'll as your high grades.
Do not sacrifice the low because they
seemingly offer premium OH the
high.

What IT'S ALI Your Fault is Like.
\ TO those who have witnessed the
funny Sclwyn farce, "Tt's all Your
Fault" the title impresses the alt
t!itor as most apt and appropriate
one.
TO those w!> have never seal ;lc
piece it must be confessed the title
is misleading one, suggesting a slap
stick, tilting stairway, hit-him-on-the
Observation-Disclosures, characters in ex-
aggcrated makc-ups and ludicrous
costumes, and all that sort of thing
usually resorted to TO "gct laugh'
in The average farce comedy.
"It's All Your Fault is not a
farce comedy in any sense Of tho
word. 1t a modern farce Of the
highest class. It's characters are
ladies and gentlemen, real artists
every one of them-attired in the
height of fashion. There are no short
skirts, no clowning or grimacing come
dies. Everything done in this unique
play brings its laughs from the audi
cncc by strictly legitimate methods.
One noted New York writer said,
"The farce moves like full-blown
Kansas cyclone, and the action Of the
piece was frequently interrupted by
tn" rolls of applause.
Charles j. Slime and Miss Olive
Evans, the stars of Manager Edward
r. Salter's splendid orgaization, have
won plaudits in every part Of their
own land, as well as in London, Paris,
Berlin, even in far-off Honolulu, New
Zealand, Australia, China, and Japan
and South Africa, from which tour
they have only returned the past two
years.
Master Pericus, in the role Of Arch
ibald, the orphan asylum waif, less
than one year ago, was a real Times
Square newsboy in New York City.
This precocious youngstcr, although
only ID years Of age, during the long
run of The farce at the Savoy in New
York, secured more original news
paper space in every leading New
York paper than Richard Mansfield
and George M. Cohen, then playing
on Broadway combined. The produc-
tion Of otis All Your Fault" to be
presented in this city by Manager
Saltcr will be identical in every way
with that given the farce during it's
100 nights run at the Savor Theatre
in New York.
