PERIODICALS
NOT AFFECTED
A Statement Issued by POstmas-
Ter General Hitchcock

Washington, Feb. 22.--Postmaster-
General Hitchcock has issued the fol-
lowing statement; ee
From an analysis OF the 8S peri
odicaIs other than newspapers. Jour-
nails and the like, published in North
Carolina and admitted to the mails
as second-class matter with the priyi-
lege of carrying advertisements, ii
appears that only one of them will be
subjected to an increase in postage
by the provision in the pending postal
bill that increases the postage rate
on the advertising pages Of magazines.
and as that one periodical out of the
SO happens to be the State Agricul-
tural bulletin, which would not ordi-
narily carry advertisements, there Is
little likelihood Of its being affected.
The higher rate does not apply to
newspapers OF any kind, including
farm journals and similar publications
that print current Information of news
value, nor does it affect periodicals
that mail less than 1000 pounds at
each issue. as happens TO be the case
with every one OF the So general peri
odical publications Of North Carolina
except the State Agricultural bulletin
Just mentioned. On the other hand,
the proposed legislation will grant
for the first time to IS periodicals
published in North Carolina the right
10 carry Advertisements. These 10
periodicals. list OF which follows,
fall into the category of periodicals
admitted to the second class without
the advertising privilege under the
act OF July IS. 1894. and comprising
the publications Of incorporated in
stitutions OF learning. of fraternal
scientific and professional societies
etc. As these Is periodicals. all mail
less than 1900 pounds an issue the
postage on their advertising pages
will be at the present rate of one cent
a pound. II is therefore apparent that
50 far as the periodical publications
OF North Carolina are concerned the
postage rate provision in the pending
postal bill will carry only benefits.

IT is BEING MADE HERE BY THE

The Confederate soldiers OF Hous-
ton, Va, are having erected at the
Sharpe marble yards Of Durham a
beautiful and imposing monument.
which will be dedicated to the brave
nienibers of the Houston camp that
have passed into the great beyond.
The monument stands twenty-five
feet In height surmounted by an ar
tistic figure representing Confeder-
ate soldier in dress parade uniform.
The entire monument. including the
figure. is OF Barry marble. The in
scription Is; I'm Memory of the Con-
federate Dead, who Fought for Con-
stitutional Liberty In the War Of
'6l-65." The monument will be
erected on the courthouse square at
Houston.
That the Sharpe marble yards here
should have been given the contract
for the work in competition with a
number OF other concerns in the large
cities OF Virginia speaks well for the
enterprise OF the local enterprise.
When II Is remembered that the work
would naturally have gone to vir-
ginia concern for. patriotic reasons,
the superiority Of the workmanship OF
the local yards Is all the more APP

commodities to other ports, receiving %
per cent of the through rate from San
Francisco for this service. The Califor-
MIA Atlantic Steamship company desires
TO run It's vessels TO Philadelphia and
receive % per cent OF the total rate, but
the Panama railroad officials claim that
Philadelphia Is co-termlnal OF New
York. This point has not been settled.
On the basis OF this tentative PROPOSE
ton Secretary Dickinson referred the
whole matter to the board OF directors
OF the Panama railroad with instruc-
tlons TO draw up contract with the Pa
cific Mall and California Atlantic Steam
ship companies TO run two years. AS
the secretary departs for an inspection
tour OF the Panama canal In a few days
the question OF approving the contract
after II has been drawn will be taken up
with him by cable.
MIR. Dickinson assured the steamship
interests that the government intends
handling the question In an impartial
manner. He informed the officials Of
the Pacific Mail Steamship company that
they would be accorded the same right
which had been given the California-At
lantlc company To establish a line OF
vessels on the Atlantic coast TO operate
as co-carriers with the Panama rail-
road.
Among those who discussed the situa-
ton were r. p. Schwern, vice president
and general manager of the Pacific Mail
Steamship company; a. 5. Chesebrough
company; H. L. d. Jackson and e D.
Douglas OF the American Hawaiian
Steamship company, and j. a. Smith of
