INDIANA MAN
ON PARCELS POST
reiIs Senate Committee It Would
Hinder Commercial Clubs F rom
Securing Factories.

washington, D. c.. March 1.-The
report of the remarks Of Charles $.
Hernly of New Castle, Ind, before
the senate postofflce committee where
in he showed that parcels posts would
blight the efforts of commercial clubs
to locate factories has caused him to
receive a multitude of approving let
tiers from officers Of such organizations
in all parts Of the country. The COM
mercial clubs of Missouri in state con-
yention passed resolutions condemning
the proposed pracels post as hostile
to development of local industries.
MI. Hernly said to Senator Bourne,
chairman of the senate postofice COM
mittee In the hearings: Your manu-
featuring interest are all in Mass
achusetts, are they not? You have
no factories in Oregon, have you? No
wonder you want the government to
haul your goods to- the Pacific coast.
NJ owned knitting mills way down
east and wanted to get the goods away
out west, I would try to get the gov
eminent to go into the delivery wagon
business and handle my manufactur-
cred product at a fiat rate nominal
price. Parcels post will not help the
farmers market their products. The
farmers cannot use the mails for ship
ping his products and porcels post will
not build up home market for him.
It only enables him to buy, but not
to sell.
The general opinion here Is that
Speaker Clark will be nominated by
the democrats for the presidency.
Harmon headquarters will be ip
charge of ex-Congressman Gordon OF
Ohio. Congressman generally say that
Gov. Wilson has written too much
which would be prejudicial to a can
dldate.
Rev. Madison c. Peters, the New
York minister who charged RESPONSE
bility upon the retailers and establish
ed a grocery, found they were making

WILLIsToN HAS SCHEME
For Buying Power From the Reelama.
ton Service.

Williston.-This city has submitted
to the reclamation service of the de-
partment Of the interior a proposition
for a contract under which it is pro
posed to purchase power from the rec
tamation service plant, three miles
from Williston. There is something
like 1000 horse power standing idle
nine months in each year and 1t will
be a great saving to have the plant
in constant operation.
This work on the part of the city
officials marks new stage in the ne
gotiations that have been carried on
for several months. and which were
begun as a result of the investigation
and report of Engineer A. H. Stors
of Denver last fall. MIR. Stors is the
engineer who superintendent the con.
struction of the government plant
here and is thoroughly informed as tc
the local situation. 1t is probable
that his report and suggestions will
have considerable weight with the
government officials in making theil
answer to the offer of the city.
1t is understood that the govern
ment plant can generate power and
sell 1t to the city at lower cost than
the city can supply itself from its
smaller and less efficient plant. In
case the city contracts to take power
from the government. 1t will begin do,
ing so about July l.
