THE PARCEL POST
SHOWS INCREASE
sLlL<k rs z
NEW RATES AND WEIGHT LIMIT
POPULAR, THOUGH ARE NOT
WELL UNDERSTOOD.

While a healthy increase has been
shown in the business of the parcel
post department at the Brunswick
post office since the Inauguration of
the new regulations by which the
rates were very materially reduced
and the maximum weight of parcels
increased from II to 20 pounds, eff
fectiye on August Is, it is evident
that there are many people who use
the parcel post who have as not yet
familiarized themselves with the new
rates, but continue to observe the
same old rates, in the dispatch of par
cells:
1t was stated yesterday to a repre-
sentative of The News by the authori-
ties in charge of the parcel post de-
partment at the local post office, that
parcels are still being constantly re-
ceived with the same amount of post
age stamps thereon as was required
under the old regulations. These
rates in many instances are twice as
great as the rates under the new reg
ulations now in force, consequently
persons who continue to observe the
old rates are doing so at an unneces-
sary expense to themselves.
The rates have been published
from time to time and may be had
for the asking at the local post office.
When these rates are fully under
stood it is expected that the parcel
post department will show even a
greater increase in popularity among
the mail order merchants and people
living on the rural routes and in the
smaller towns in the future than it
has in the past.

GEORGIA CLIMATE

FARMERS OF THE MIDDLE WEST

SECTION.

With normal temperature-be-

has been for the past week or more
enjoying the summer. Just rains
enough have fallen over the state to
keep things comfortable, keep crops
growing, and cause enyious chances
from less favored states, where they
have beep praying for rain every time
they thought the wind was right.
Reports of dry weather damage
continue to be sent out from Kansas
and Northwestern Missouri.
Fruit growers of Northeast Kansas
and Northwest Missouri say the APP
pie crop, which early in the season
promised to break records, will be
little better than failure. Immature
apples are tumbling from dried up
twigs to the ground, to be fed to the
hogs or turned into inferior cider.
Scattered showers the last four
days have reduced average tempera-
lures several degrees, and in some
sections have been sufficiently heavy
to give the corn a chance to mature,
temperatures in many parts of Kan
sas are still above a hundred and
no promises of relief are in sight
In direct contrast to this take the
reports that are coming from every
section of Georgia telling of banner
crops of cotton and corn, and stock

AGAIN CONSIDER
RIVER PROJECT
MACON CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
WORKING ON BRUNSWICK
MACON BOAT LINE.

A. j. Long, member Of the freight
bureau the chamber of commerce
Is still working hard on the project
to get power boats ON the Ocmulgee
river to ply between Macon and the
tidewater. Learning that motor boats
and barges were successfully opera
ted on the smaller streams in West
Virginia, he has gone there to fully
look over the plan.
Mr.. Long is now at Parkersburg,
w. Va, where motor boats have been
successfully used on a stream no bet
ter than the Ocmulgee and after max
Ing an inspection of the methods
used there, will secure information
to put before the freight bureau of
the Macon chamber of commerce and
its members, with view to getting
the navigation company organized for
business.
No call was made on the freight
bureau to defray the expense OF the
trip. Mr.. Long is making the investi-
cation on his own expense, railizing
that 1t will be mutually beneficial to
his own, and the business interests
Of other Macon establishments.
Impetus has been given the project
to place boats on the river by recent
announcement from Washington, d. C
that the chief engineer OF the United
States army has approved of a plan
that carries with 1t an appropriation
OF $20,000,000 with the intimate pur-
pose of building up motor boating on
the upper Mississippi river and other
inland streams. The job will require
1t is estimated about IL years. to com
plete.
The engineer and corps recon-
mend that large sums be devoted to
making and trying models, power
boats, and barges suitable for non
tidal and shallow inland streams.
THE freight bureau of the chamber
of commerce has time after time en-
deavored to impress on the public the
Importance of installing power boats
| propelled by engines of internal com
bustion strong enough to tow one or
two barg and OF sufficient power to
afford transportation service between
Macon and the tidewater," said b.
| Gillian, traffic manager, discussing
the matter recently.
THE necessity of joining forces on
this proposition Is day by day tighten
Ing and it is not question of wheth-
er II can and ought to be done now,
but II is a question of doing it. The
feasibility of the proposition has been
vouched for by some of the best en-
gineers in the country and it is be-
| ing done elsewhere.
From January l., to December /,
/ 1912 the Ocmulgee river laying idle
cost the people of Macon at least
$150,000 by conservative estimate on
freight rates which are steadily in.
creasing. This self-imposed tax
grows heavier every day
When Mr.. Long returns from West
Virginia he will lay his facts before
the navigation committee of the
chamber of commerce and the freight
bureau with view to getting the or
ganization perfected to build and OPP
crate the boats.

Former Premier Promises Quick
Action if Liberals Are Re-
turned to Power.
lBy telegraph to The Tribune.

Ottawa, Dec. 10.-"Are we to be the
spectators Of want and hunger in this
country asked Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the
Opposition leader. late last night in a
speech given at a Reform Club dinner for
W. ;. Fielding, the author of reCiproc-
ity, who was Finance Minister during
the fifteen years Of the Laurier regime.
Both Sir Wilfrid and Mr.. Fielding, for
whom Montreal constituency is TO be
opened soon to permit his return TO
Parliament. outlined the Liberal pro-
sramme for the coming session Of Pariia-
ment. which will be opened by the Duke
OF Connaught on January 10.
Sir Wilfrid promised that if the Liberal
government were returned TO power they
would appoint a commission of Cabinet
Ministers to go from one end of Canada
TO the other to find means of reducing thu
tariff without injuring the manufacturers.
We would be recreant as Liberals and
as citizens" Sir Wilfrid said III We
closed our eyes TO this burden OF the high
cost Of living. 1 new condition has arisen
at The present time-fOr the first time
since 1896 men are seeking work and not
finding II. There is now such a thing
as non-employment in this country. The
Mayor of Winnipeg Yesterday stated that
there are 5000 unemployed in the city OF

To-day in Montreal. Toronto and all
the large cities OF Canada men are seek

most powerful employers i'm the country
are decreasing the number OF their work
ers and cutting down the hours OF labor,
at the same time the cost OF living Is
always increasing The result is less
work on one side and higher cost Of Nv
ing on the other. This is a serious stu
alton What is the government doins
TO cope with il? They show no sign OF
dealing with the problem.
Yesterday, speaking To the business
men Of Halifax, the Minister OF Labor
said there vas nothing 10 do. Every 70
thing was all right and for the best. |

He goes on to say. II YOU want cheaper
living let us have a few years of nara
times. There were hard times Ia this
country from 1898 10 1896, but living was
cheaper then Now there is no work and
living il dear So We are hit both ways
friends. Our enemies will agree with me

There was work in every city FOR every

not abnormally high Wages were on a

since the government viii not do any

"rhe Conservative press tells Us to-day
that the tariff in no way apprcciably IN

this answer TO make: The question to-
day is not whether the tariif appreciaOly
increases the cost Of living or not. but
whether the tariff as II Is to-day, per
mits the combines 10 exist and to m
crease and 10 shift the burdens upon the
people. You know as well as | do that
the price which is paid 10 the producer
for his produce is not the price that Is
asked from the consumer.
THE combines know the conditions
very well. They know exactly the amount
Of supplies in the country OF meat, pouI-
try, butter eggs and so forth They
know that nothing can come in from the
other side, and knowing the production in
their own country they are able TO fix
the price to the producer and then Tx IL
10 the consumer. giving as little as they
can TO the producer and charging as muSh
as they can to the consumer.
