these complaints and find In almost
every instance that the papers leave
this office. A few days ago a friend
in Fort Worth Complained that he
had never received copy of the pa
per, although he subscribed for it
the first week>in August. On exami-
nation, we found his name entered
correctly, the first week In August,
and the paper mailed to him each
week. We are now investigating
this case and other eases. tt does
not seem possible that the postmasters
would attempt to prevent the deliv-
cry OF the paper to our subscribers,
even though we do teach a new, and
perhaps to some Of them q strange,

A Missouri postmaster, who also
runs a grocery store, uses the sam

fellow.

you to kick, friends. If you will keep
on kicking we will get the matter
fixed, even though we have to add ex-
ira force in our office to look after
this work specially. We are very
anxious that all our subscribers get
the paper each week. You will con-
fer a great favor on us by kicking,
and kicking hard, till we get every
thing fixed as it should be. If the
fault is in this Office, we have yet
failed to find it.

On the contrary, they are holding

Mississippi Banks All Right.
Hattiesburg, Miss, October 81
Bankers here who were not inclined
to express opinions last week, now
say freely that the outlook is very
hopeful. They are a unit in declar-
ing that nothing in the financial sit
uation has thus far unfavorably af-
fected this section.
Nashville Not Bothered.
Nashville, Tenn, October 27.-New
YOrk's latest financial excitement has
not shaken confidence locally. The
Nashville banks are, naturally, care
fully scrutinizing the paper offered
them, but legitimate enterprises and
industries are experiencing no diff
Guilty in securing ready money.
While demand for local securities is
not brisk just now, there is no pres
sure to sell and no material change

banker tonight declared that the sit

THE HONOR rs wATsoN's.

1t makes us sick and tired to lis
ten to the whiting dry goods box pol
tician argue that southern congress
man can't do anything in Washing
ton with the republicans in power.
If congressman is a great man he
can do something, otherwise he'll
amount to no more than a garden
seed peddler. Tom Watson did more
IN two years than any other southern
congressman has done in all the time
that he has been in Office. Page 1859
of the Congressional Record, Febru-
ary II, 1893, shows that Tom Wat
son secured the first adoption of a
resolution in favor of the present ru-
raj free delivery system and secured
an appropriation therefor. Mr.. Wat
son has often said and published over
his own signature that he would give
81 900 to anybody to show that this
was not the first amendment and the
FIRST appropriation made in behalf
Of the present rural free delivery sys-
tenn.
An incident within our own recol-
lection will show how much prejudice
there was against Mr.. Watson s plan
to deliver mail to the farmers along
In the nineties. Postmaster W. G..
Cole asked certain well known pub
lie citizen to draw up petition to
secure a R. F. D. Route from Law
renceville and was laughed at and
told that the scheme would bankrupt
the government. Well, the rural free
delivery of mail hasn It bankrupted
anybody and is the greatest blessing
to the country people secured for
themin quarter of a century.
The Journal editor never voted
for Tom Watson nor would he do
so now unless he would run for Of
flee as democrat, but that doesn It
alter the fact that he is a great man
and in some respects the greatest
man in America Certainly as a po-
litical speaker and writer, he has no
equal in this country, not excepting
Bryan, Roosevelt, Hoke Smith, Joe
Bailey, John Sharp Williams or any
body else.-The Gwinnett journal.

but there have been no failurs, and !
very few have been forced to sell at

Savannah Is Confident. s.
Savannah, Ga, October 27.-It is
with feeling Of confidence that the
bankers Of Savannah view the re-
sumption of business in the great f.
nancial centers tomorrow. The be-
lief is general that the worst has
passed, and that there will be rapid
and general improvement in the Sit
uation.
"The determination of the clear
ing house associations of New York
and Chicago" said a prominent
bank president today, "should, and
no doubt will, serve to relieve the
pressure upon the banks, place more
currency at their disposal, aud cause
rapid passage of the financial
stringency. The crop moving period
is approaching its close, and soon the
money centers will be free from the
strain this season always occasions.
The movement of cotton in the South
VILE soon have been accomplished,
and foreign mills payment for the
yield will render money easy"
Plenty of Money in Texas Banks.
San Antonio, Texas, October 27,-
The financial situation in New York
has had absolutely no effect upon
banks and financial institutions in
this city. Money is not tight in San
Antonio, nor according to bankers
Will 1t become so. All of the banks
have an unusual amount of money on
hand, 1t was said today, owing to
the fact that they no longer use New
York as depository for large amounts,
and because of the prosperous condi-
tlons existing in This section of The
country.
Galveston, Texas, October 27-
Summing up the financial situation in
Galveston, 7. j. Groce, president of
the Galveston Clearing House Asso-
cation, and president of the Calves
ton National Bank, said today:
There are no disturbing factors
in the local situation. The banks are
working along quietly and conserya-
lively, insisting on the gradual houi-
datlon Of outside obligations without
any pressing or harassing methods
and emphasizing the necessity of CO.
operation in gradually relieving the
situation. The feeling is quiet, and
there IS no savoring of a disturb
ance IN the atmosphere.
Dallas, Texas, October 27.-Ofa-
clals of national banks in Dallas de-
clare they have plenty of cash for
any contingency and express no un-
easiness over the situation. Money
here IS at 8 per cent, the rate having
been raised from per cent during

IMMENSE PROFIT OF UNION
PACIFIC.

power of the common. stock Of the
Union Pacific Railroad. The rather
startling statement is made that the
common stock of this road earned
during the last fiscal year 81 Ia per
cent. In other words, after all OBJ
Grating expenses and the 6 per cent
dividend on the preferred stock we're
paid, there remained ont Of the gross
earnings $41, ,576, 1853, which is equal
to little over 2I per cent on the
$195, ,479, 100 Of outstanding common
stock.
In discussion Of these figures the
Wall street daily says:
"These are startling figures. I'm
derlying them there is wealth Of
reserve earning power that can be
duplicated by no other railroad prop
erty in the West, and perhaps in no
other important railroad property. 1t
is not alone that Union Pacific in
the fiscal year just closed expended
more money for maintenance Of way
and structures and equipment than
In any previous year, which means
that it is maintained on scale Of
Gberality which is not equaled by any
other important railroad west Of the
Mississippi river, if. indeed, any
where else in the United States: but
that, furthermore, its earning power
is protected by the earnings of vari-
Gus railroad properties, east and west,
in which it is dominant and upon
which it might call at will for larger
distributions.
The Journal prints a table of the
comparative gross receipts and expen-
ses of this road for the years 1902
and 1907, which shows that the gross
earnings of the road in 1902 were
$47, 100000, while five years later
they had grown to the enormous total
of $76,000,000; and that the operat-
ing expenses per mile in 1907 were
but ST ,542, while the gross earnings
per mile were 5000. The total re-
ceipts of the Union Pacific for the
last Rscal year, which included its
income from stocks and bonds held
in other railway properties, amounted
to nearly $9O,00O,OOO, or nearly $16,-
900 per mile of road.
Notwithstanding that the showing
made by the Union Pacific in the late
fiscal year is really phenomenal
showing, it is safe to figure that the
current fiscal year will be productive
of even greater results.
The meaning of these figures is
clear, to wit: Not only is the 10 per
cent dividend on Union Pacific COM
mon protected as to earnings, as few
if any dividends of the more import
ant railroads Of the United States
are protected but it appears newt
able that unless the country is to run
into prolonged period Of depression
Union Pacific common will become In
some form or other a 12 pei cent
stock. unless the management decide
during the next year to make dis
tribution of free assets to the stock
holders, a development of which there
