DELAY EXAMINATION
OF POSTMASTERS
Applicants For Fourth Class
Offices Will Have to Wait
Until Urgent Deficiency
Bill is Passed.

Washington, d. c.. August lG
Although practically not u
wheel has been turned during
the past month towards making
preparation for examining all
of the applicants for fourth
class post Offices it ia quite
probable that the plan FOR hold
ing these examinations i'm Nir-
ginia some time in September
or early October will he carried
out.
The cause for the present de-
lay is the fact that the civil
service commission has no
available fund to defray the
expenses OF taking tho thou
sands Of examinations. Prcsi-
dent Wilson some months ago
modified former President
rafts order, placing all the
fourth class postmastors under
the protecting wing of the civil
service system, by ordering
that competitive examination
should be held to select post
masters.
But when Post Master Gener-
al Burlcson called on the civil
service commission to carry
out the order and submitted the
list of States made up into
groups of four in the order i'm
which he wished the examin-
atoms to be held he discovered
that there was no fund avail
able To carry out the enormous
task Then it was that Post
Master General Burleson and
Commissioners Black called on
the house appropriations com
mittee, explained the situation
and asked that money be pro-
vided as soon rs possible. 1t
was following this conference,
az told in these dispatches be.
fore, that the old Dominion
delegation discovered that Nir-
ginia had been placed far down
the list to he examined Bnt
this matter has all been arrang
ed now and through the insis-
tent urging OF the delegation,
Virginia has been placed we'll
tn the front.
At this conference also il
was arranged that the approp.
rintion committee would ask
for enough money at one time
to dcfray tho expenses OF all the
examinations and that they
should be held in eight States
at II time, all To he examined
within n year The commis-
sion estimated that $40, 600
would be necessary, and nc
cordingly an item for the
amount was inserted in the ur
gent deficiency bill which has
been prepared by the nppropri
ations committee and is now
ready for passage.
IL is useless, however, for the
house 10 pass the bill until an
agreement can bc made with
the senate leaders 20 make way
for the bill when it reaches that
body. Under tho rules obtain
ing in the senate no business
can be taken up until the tariff
bill is out of the way, unless n
special rule is passed and ar
rangements made with Senator
Simmons and the members of
the finance committee having
the tariff bill in charge.
With a view To making such
an arrangement members Of

County?

Doubtless most of our READERS
have read something about the
wonderful Improvement n
farm lands aud farming condi-
tions, and the very large in.
crease in crop yields through
out many parts of the South
during the past five or six
years, brought about largely by
the work of the Farm Demon
stration Bureau of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture ut Wash
ington in corporation with the
several State Boards of Agri-
culture and the Southern Edu-
cntional Fun Endowment.
Probably only II few of you
know, however, that more than
80 of che 100 Virginia counties
have awaited themselves of
this opportunity, and are now
regularly employing county
demonstrators; and that in
every single case the farmers
and. in fact, all the people of
these counties are more than
delighted with the results.

comes to dashing out masterpieces
concerning B. Nelson, is going to
turn evangelist.
The battler reached this decision
after hearing the Reverend Billy
Sunday turn Columbus upside
down and back again, and in the
VernaCular, knock 'em off their
seats" The Hegewisch fistic ex-
ponent was dazed He admitted
that Sundays sermon certainly
made a fellow regret every mean
thing he ever did, adding that it
made one long, lingering impress
sion on him and henceforth he in
tended sticking to the strait and
narrow
Nelson was so impressed that at
the conclusion of the ceremonies he
made his way to the stage and in
troduced himself to Sunday, telling
him that he was the squarest ref
cree he had ever seen or heard.
Sunday and the battler, after
speaking in glowing terms of each
other exchanged autograph photos
and Nelson was induced to return
for the evening services. The ex-
champ not only returned. but OcCu-
pied a seat on the platform and was
prevailed upon to accept song
book and take part in singing.
Bat was a regular visitor during
the remainder of his stay In Co
lumbus. and before leaving pre-
sented the former big league base
ball player with copies Of his con-
tributions to American literature,
namely, The Life. Battles and Ca
reer of Battling Nelson" and THE
Wonders of Yellowstone Park" In
exchange Sunday gave Bat several
books on how to become an evan
gelist and exacted a promise that
Nelson would join him at his
earliest convenience.
1t is the intention of Nelson to
join Sunday in his tour of the
East, and he expects to tell those
who attend the revivals of his ex-
periences in and out OF the ring
during his career as fighter.
