POSTMASTER TELLS
ABOUT POSTAL WORK


services paid accordingly.
Article No. 2Ba of the postal laws
provides that postal employees must
wsrk at any time the postmaster sees
ft so that the service may not be I'M
paired. 1t places the men under the
postmaster q control so far as conduct
ing the Office, issuing mail and work
ing his men, is concerned. Clerks must
work at suck times as they are re-
quired to by the receipt of mails, so
that a high standard Of efficiency in
the service may be maintained.
Regarding Sunday work, the postal
law prescribes that-employes of a post
Office shall work as little as possible
to an extent that wil1snot be detrimen-
tai to the service. This, Mr.. Tice be.
heves. he is carrying out. He declares
his men work an hour or two on SIM,
days to handle the mail to a degree
where a good standard of service is
maintained. He complies with the law
in keeping q window open q certain
time and says his men are only in the
office long enough on Sundays to han.
die mails that must receive attention
He has mails handled to such an ex
tent that matter received on Sunday
can go out then and not on Monday
in which event it would not reach It'll
destination until probably Tuesday. II
is therefore conceded that the present
Sunday schedule cannot be altered
without detriment to the service and
as that would be a violation OF the
postal laws, there seems to be little
room for o change.

PAYING TAXES.

Adjusting valuations and tax rates
under the new one per cent tax law
las caused more or less confusion
md delay in all the counties of the
state. The county tax budget COM
missions were unable to make up the
total tax duplicate until they heard
from the state tax commission.
County auditors were unable to get
heir tax books to the county treas
Irers on time. This has handicapped
he county treasurer in writing up
his tax receipts. Taxpayers of Put
nam county should not be in too
much haste in wanting to pay their
taxes this year. County treasurer
Rudolph and his deputies are work
ing early and late on their books
and will be ready to take care of all
who come soon after December first.
Don't be in hurry to pay taxes be-
fore the books are ready this year.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER "a, 1911,

James r. Garfield is said to have
his eve on Senator Burton's seat But
that won't prevent his being the he
publican nominee for. Governor next
year nor prevent his being elected
and serving out at least one term
Senator Burton's period of incum'
bency does not expire until l9l5'-
North Baltimore Beacon.
Let us carry the story little far
ther. The Ohio Republicans will be
wise if they nominate Garfield Tor
Governor in 1912. He can be elected.
Then in case Taft should be turned
down for nomination and LaFol-
lette nominated in his stead and then
beaten at the polls as he will be, the
Democratic President who will thus
be elected will have just four years
time to get the country turned upside
down, when Garfield, with the four
years experience as Governor which
he then will have had, will be the log
ical candidate for the Republicans to
nominate and elect in 1916. Think
it over. Is it not about right?

SATIRE ON OHIO.

The following article Satire on
Ohio" is taken from the Bulletin of
Commerce, published in Columbus,
Ohio:
Ohio is located on the extreme
western edge of the Pie Belt of the
United States. Some geographers
maintain that the good old common
wealth no longer belongs in the Pie
Belt, since Ohio housewives serve
pastry only once a day, patent break
fast foods having displaced the apple,
mince and pumpkin triangles as a
part of the morning meal.
Ohio weather is so uncertain that
no citizen of the state finds it neces-
|sary to journey forth in search of a
change of climate-he can enjoy
more than fifty-seven varieties at
home.
One can travel farther for his
money in Ohio than in any other
state, because of the two-cent rail-
road fare and the three-cent street
car fare.
The Buckeye state is so progressive
that it has to pause occasionally, so
as not to get entirely away from
some of the adjoing states and leave
a blank space on the map.
The chief productions of the state
are presidents and college graduates
In the conservation of natural re-
sources, the government thoughtfully
set aside Ohio to furnish presidential
timber for national use. The last
tree hewn from this forest was of
truly remarkable size. The foresters
lin charge of the preserve have al
Iready marked another tree which
will be sacrificed if necessary.
The Buckeye schoolboy doesn't
hitch his wagon to star-he tethers
his aeroplane to the presidential
chair.
Ohio mothers soothe their babies
to rest with this variation of the old
lullaby:
Hush, little baby, don't you cry,
| You'll be president, by and by.
In spite of his advantages, the
characteristic for which the Ohio
man is noted is his beautiful mod
esty. He knows that his state is far
superior to any other state, but he
doesn't boast of the fact-never!

Warren 6. Harden, one time can
didate for Governor of Ohio, on the
Republican ticket, told some plain
truths at banquet of large manufac'
turers in Columbus last week. He
made it plain to them that they should
obey the law in all cases, and where
any manufacturer, trust or corpora
ton violated the law, they themselves
should insist that punishment, severe
and sure should be given to the vio-
later. He told them that violation OF
the law by big business interests and
the failure on the part of officers to
prosecute them is largely the cause
of unrest, socialism and anarchy.
