Will BE Needed 10 Years Hence.
Is the government about to make
start toward the erection OF a fed
eral building in Dawson, for which
congress made an appropriation OF
100000 a year ago?
A letter Postmaster Lewis receiv-
ed Sunday from the department at
Washington seems to Indicate that
such is the case.
In the letter several questions are
Among them he is asked to report
to the department the number of
square feet of floor space occupied
at present, the number of feet neces-
sary to properly conduct the business
of the office at the present time, and
the number of feet that will proba
bly, be required for the office ten
years hence.
The department also wants to
know the number of employees in
the office ten years ago, the number
that will be needed ten years hence,
and the approximate population serV-
ed from the office.
The department closes its letter
of inquiry by asking if, in the opin-
ion of the postmaster, there are any
unusual conditions which would JUS
tify the department in recommend
ing that the matter of providing a
federal building for Dawson be taken
up out of the regular order.

preparation for building at Dawson

poets Are FOR comparatively Llt-
tie Criminal Business.
The fall term of Terrell superior
court will convene next Monday
morning, and unless the grand jury
works up considerable new business
the session promises to be botn
short and uninteresting.
Since the last term of the court
six months ago only "a new civil
cases have been filed and seven of
these, or nearly one-third, are di-
Vorce suits.
There are only 80 cases on the civ
il docket for trial at the approaching
term, and only two of thees are of
special interest. One is the suit of
Mr.. j. n. Cook against the city Of
Dawson for injuries alleged to have
been sustained by falling into a ditch
on Seventh avenue. The other is the
quo warranto proceedings brought by
Ordinary w. B. Cheatham to obtain
the Office of clerk of the board of
county commissioners, now held by
Mr.. X. S. Worthy. This case has
been set for the first day of court,
and promises to be an interesting
legal fight. Judge Cheatham is !ep-
resented by Attorneys Edwards, Yeo-
mans and Wilkinson, and Mr.. Wor-
thy by attorneys Gurr and Irwin.
The criminal docket is also com
paratively light, and work in this
branch of the court will be quickly
disposed of unless the grand jury
produces a considerable number of
new cases.
There are now seventeen prisoners
in jail awaiting trial. One of these
is Jack Kelly, a negro charged with
murder, eleven others are charged
with various felony Offenses, and
five are accused of misdemeanors.

N STYLE AND QUALITY.
GOVERNOR SLATON

ro1d Won when he was here how
,ob advantage it would be to the
n tSto to adopt the cash system; also
I,,, much it would help each indi-
i,dnaI farmer if ne would trade for
.T even if he had to borrow the
onov If it is not exactly clear to
'.onr mind we can convince you any
limo Won come to the store, especially
- Won buy a pair of shoes.
THE REASON
We are selling for strictly cash is
,ocanse we are not able to lend mon
~ and our factories make us pay
oosb for the grade of goods we buy,
Won see that charging these goods
,,onld be like lending money without
interest o~.
We ouit the charging business is
,ocanse it will be better for you to
nav cash. The credit prices you have
bpen paying explains a good deal of
that cost of "bigh living
ANY MERCHANT
Can sell you goods at less price
for cash, and you good paying people
ought to demand it, for just so long
&C YOU have goods charged you must
nav for all the leaks.
MY ONLY BROTHER
Sent check for shoes before they
upre sent to him. Thus you will see
cash means cash with us and means
cash saved for you.
ANY FARMER
And any other man who will al
wavs do right can arrange to get
what he needs and can get it cheaper
nv getting money from the bank and
having cash for his goods.
THE BANKS
Make their money by letting peo-
ple have money, and most any man
with good character can get together
two or three other good characters
and get money and all of them can
save money by buying goods for cash.
We can prove all of this to you if
you doubt it.
PEOPLE
From all around this section are
catching on to our spot cash G. o. D.
system and Uncle Sam is helping us
all out nicely. The government has
tried the cash system and sticks to it
because it is the best for all parties.
CUSTOMERS
Out of town need not be afraid to
send the money for any price shoe
they need. We have trusted you for
wears with larger amounts than that,
and if the shoes do not suit we refund
money cheerfully

Lake Tahoe Road Completed

The road connecting Tahoe and
Tallac, with a few minor repairs at
the close of the Winter, will be ready
for the opening of the 1914 touring
season. One of the drawbacks to
the lake trip has been the barging
from one resort to another on ac-
count of the absence of a road con-
Meeting Tallac to Tahoe. The finest
scenery is to be found where the
new road rounds Emerald Bay. This
part of the road, which is from 800
to 1000 feet above the water, is for
the most part blasted along the face
of a solid granite cliff, and in many
places one gets an absolutely unob-
structed view of both Emerald Bay
and the lake. At the south side OF
Emerald Bay the road climbs to the
top of a hogback, and one has a view
of Cascade Lake 500 feet below on
the left, of Emerald Bay 1000 feet
below on the right, and Lake Tahoe
spreading out directly in front, with
the rugged mountains on the Nevada
side of the lake as a background.

Pins MADE BY THE MILLION
England Alone Produces 81 00o, 900 Pins
Livery Day In The Year

In England every day there is an
OUTPUT of over 54, 000, 900 pins. Biz
bingham. the greatest center of the
industry, alone produces 10000 0
pins per day. The output of other
pin manufacturers in England is only
about half that of Birmingham. In
France the daily production $50, OOO,-
600, while Germany and Holland pro-
duce 10, 900, 900 per day. The total
output for Europe each day is, there
fore, "a, 900, 900.
1t is seleom that a pin gets broken
or worn, and the question is, there
fore, Where do all the pins go to-"
The greater number of them get lost,
and there is no other domestic article
where there is so much waste by loss.
If every person in Europe lost a pin
on every third day the daily loss
would represent over $4,000.
In former days the number of men
required to make a pin was n OF
the marvels of the manufacturing
world, but as with most other manu-
featuring products, machinery has
taken the place of men, and pins are
now produced very much faster.
The machines are so perfect that
they cut the wire of which the pins
are made into pieces of the right
length, head, point, polish and sort
them. They are then put into an
other machine, which affixes them to
paper at the rate of $4,000 to 10000
per hour.
In the fourteenth century pins were
pinsl They were not carelessly lost
as nowadays. or given as a substitute
for a farthing change. The law per-
mitted that they should only be sold
on the first two days of January each
year, in order that they mightnot be-
come too common. 1t therefore be-
came the custom for ladies of all
classes to buy their years stock OF
pins on these days, and the money
given them for this purpose by their
husbands or fathers was known as
pin money''---a phrase that has sur
vived to the present day.
