RURAL ROUTE CHANGES.
Route Number Two Extended Mile
 Further December End.

In accordance with the recommenda- tions of Postoffice' Inspector C. D. Lowe in a report to the department under date of October 23rd. Postmaster Mullen has been instructed by the de- partment to make certain changes in route number two from this office. This change adds something over a mile to the length of the route. plac- ing it one notch higher in it's rating. The change will be of decided benefit to number of patrons of the service, bringing the mail to their homes or very near them, whereas under the present conditions. their boxes are sit- uated some distance from their resi- dences. in some instances a mile or more. This change goes into effect December 2nd.
 In the same communication to the postmaster was issued another order which will be of interest not only to patrons of the delivery service but others. In part the order is as fol- lows: For public convenience and to facilitate a more accurate handling of mail by rural delivery carriers, it has been decided that each rural mail box in use on a rural route. which. under the regulations of the department, Is entitled to service, shall be designated by numbers. POstmasters are direct

ed to instruct carriers to review as soon as practicable the rural mail boxes in use on their routes and re- port to them which of the boxes con form to the regulations and are thus entitled to a designative number. No non-weather proof or otherwise unfit receptacles for mail shall be numbered and postmasters will report to this of flee the names of all patrons maintain ing such boxes. As soon as possible after completing the assignment of box numbers on route the postmaster will furnish box owners with their of- ficial numbers and request that this number be at one legibly and durably inscribed in conspicious place on the outside of the box. The delivery of mail when addressed to route and box number only is prohibited.

THANKSGIVING DAY.

You can see what's coming, atd you don't have to guess who's going to get the best of it, either. With cloths it's different. We're getting lots of men ready for winter; the difference is that both sides of the transaction get the best of it.
 Every time we sell a man a Hart, Schaffner and Marx Suit we make a profit and a friend: he gets a bigger profit and cause for thanksgiving that will last great deal longer than the best dinner he'll ever have.
 If you buy clothes you're foolish to accept anything less when you can get Hart, Schaffner and Marx clothes; all wool. perfect tailoring. correct style; and fit guaranteed.
 Plenty of other good things. too: Underwear, such as you want for win ter: Shirts. Hosiery, Gloves, Hats and Mems Wear generally.

has constantly treaded toward making

before them and holding men respon-

tasks. The employers will hold that
the labor union has had as much to
DO with making men machines - the
management Of the property, and that
the labor unions uniformly have in
sisted on definite tasks and the hold

PURE FOOD Law ENFORCE.
AENT.

The deputy food commissioner has
suggested . conference of county II.
torneys of the various cou.ties in Ne
Drsska to take up the question of pure
food law enforcement. Such . con-
ference may be Of some advantage,
although it is extremely doubtful that
it will be fully attended, or, even il
30, agree upon any concerted plan OF
sc'Aon' -- SA--
SWhilel the. pure food law devolves
upon the county attorneys the duty Of
beginning prosecution for its violation,
the deputy food commissioner has
taken it upon himself to determine in
first instance what constitutes . viola-
ton, and 90 far ~ he has gone in this
direction he seems, in our opinion, to
have woefllly misoonstrued the pur-
pose of the law.
The Nebraska pure food law was
enacted not to annoy manufacturers
and dealers OF to interfere with estab-
iished trade customs, but to protect
the public against fraud, misrepresen.
tation and a~dulteration. The purpose
of the law - to assure the consumer
when buying an article Of food by the
pound that he is getting . full pound
and that the article he buys Is also ex-
actly what it purports to be. But il
the article is not sold BY weight or
measure and no false statements are
made q to quality or quantity, no
fraud or misrepresentation is worked
and no ofense committed against the
spirit Of the law.
In the enforcement of the pure food
law the Bee wants to repeat what it
urged 1t the tine this Legislation VA
pending, that Nebraska should do
nothing BY far-fetched construction
that would put our manufacturer and
dealers 1t . disadvantage with their
competitors in other states; that al

IF the farmers were compelled to
sell their wheat and their cattle We
might be Witnessing some reductions
. q the prices of bread and meat. But
the refusal of these necessities to come
down in price Is explained by the facs
that the independent farmer, when he
goes to market and finds that the rates
on wheat and cattle do not please him,
turns around and goes buck home,
taking his grain and his cattle with
him. Or perhaps he does not 60 "

tAtions and refusing u take his slut
out of the barns and the pastures u
long ~ prices are down.
i this is the correct explanation for
the prevailing high prices Of things ~
eat in . time when, judging by other
conditions, prices ought to be lower, it
simply proves that the farmer is in a
veil intrenched position. He does NOT
sell, because he does not have to sell,
thereby proving his own prosperity
even at the expense Of those Who
would like to buy At prices somewha,
below the high figures which the shops
now display. The farmer wears the
smile that won't come oil, and q long
