1859

A little over seven years ago, un-
der another management, the Pal
ladium was an odd looking little
paper, published in quaint little
shop and boasting of a circulation
of 400 or 500. -...
Today the Palladium is a mod
ern newspaper in every respect and
has circulation of 1859.
The Palladium's average circula-
ton in the city of Richmond is A.
200. 1t is estimated that there are
$500 homes in this city and the
Palladium enters about So per cent
of them. On an average there are
four people residing in every home
in this city, so it is estimated that
at least 16.S00 people in Richmond
read the Palladium every evening.
On the rural routes of Wayne
county the Palladium goes into g
900 of the 5000 farm houses.
In the small towns of the county,
the Palladium has a circulation of
over 1000.

The bloodhound is sometimes called

variety which hunts the scent. The
male weighs from 81 to 100 pounds
and the female from 80 TO 10 pounds.
They vary In height from twenty-three
to twenty seven inches measured at
the shoulder. The color of these dogs
is black and tan. brown or liver col
Ored and sometimes tan hecked with
white or badger colored hairs. 1t is a
popular impression that the blood

probably owes this reputation to his

whether Senator Williams, who had
declared that a delegate should abide
by Instructions given him in a pri-
mary, did not believe that the vote of
the entire state should not bind the

Williams replied that the state at
large should control only the dele
gates at large. He insisted that a
delegate at large from primary state
should be bound by the majority in
the state and that a district delegate
should be bound by the district ma
jority vote. \ state convention could
not claim control over district dele
