UNCLE SAM WANTS
TO CUT THE PAY

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 19.-That the
postal department is planning to make
an effort to cut still further the COM
pensation paid to railroads for carry
ing Uncle Sans mail, though it is al
ready unfair and inadequate, is de-
clared by President ]. w. Oglesby of
the South Georgia Railway Co., in u
statement furnished to the Atlanta
newspapers today.
"The railroads have proved" says
Mr.. oglesby, beyond peradventure to
duly constituted official committees of
congress that they have for years been
seriously underpaid for the service of
hauling the mails; and now not only
has the parcels post been added to the
work performed by the railroads but it
is now proposed by the postoffice de-
partment, by process of abracadabra
in changing the basis of computation
from weight to space, to cut the COM
-pensation to the railroads far below
its already inadequacy."

A half dozen privates gathered round

These observatories would be fascin-
ating additions to Adirondack camps,
being successive flights of stairs with
strong landings, winding round the
highest trees, painted the color of

iage. There is no military secret about
this for it is we'll known that both

CALHOUN TIMES IS
IN FOR GOOD Time

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 19.-If the
crime of ''lese majestic" still existed in
this country and covered the dignity of
the bench as well as the throne, it is
safe to say that Judge Fite of the
Cherokee circuit would today be en-
gagged in the pleasant occupation Of
having the editor of the Calhoun Times
hanged, drawn, quartered and fed to
the lions.
For the editor has published quiet
ly scathing comment on recent aaffirs
in Murray that makes what the Dalton
Citizen said some time ago sound like
d tribute of praise by comparison.
I'VE don't know much about law,
ard we don't know much about judges
rights" says the editor. "but we do
know that If our laws give judge the
right to Jail men elected by the people
70 transact the business of the people
for no other cause than his own per-
s0nal views about matters in which he
should have no voice, then our laws
should be changed.
THE judge has been on the bench
in this circuit good long time-too
long for his own good name or for the
general welfare of the people. The
judge, after all, may not be forced to
preside in the courthouse SO lbjec-
tionable to his dignity"

RUSSIAN SHIPPERS
ARE SHUT FROM THE
MARKET Of WORLD.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 49,
Among the specialties of Great Rus
STA which have been shut out of the
markets of the world by the war are
the wonderfully embroidered leather
slippers made by the women of Tor
jok," begins a statement issued by the
National Geographic society. "These
products enjoyed considerable pop
ularity outside of Russia, and they
we're thought by the women who wore
them to be more comfortable than the
Indian moccasin and more chic than
the artistic creations of the French.
The women of Torjok also make many
other sorts of embroidered articles and
delicate variety of Russian lace, a
lace descendant of the Byzantine finery
genre.
1.-THE slippers, mostly Morocco
leather worked with gold thread, form
the little city's chief claim to recognf,
ton and distinction. They are known
in every part of Russia, and are to be
seen in the Caucasus and in Siberia as
well as in Moscow and Petrograd. In
recent years, this Russian product be-
sam reaching the markets of other
countries. Travellers in the Cars en-
pire became acquainted with chance
pair, and thereafter their fame would
be made in such travellers home COM
munities. The Torjok slipper stood
for solid comfort, good materials and
artistic perfection.
Several hundred women do the en-
hroidery work for which Torjok is
famed, and they are much sought after
as wives, because each of these skill
full artists more than doubles her hus-
bands income. The Russian mechanic
who is lucky enough to get one of the
girls trained by the municipality in
Torjok's school of embroidery is re-
moved from all threat of future pow
erty. He no longer has to dread the
day when he must seek out a pawn
shop and pledge his copper samovar,
his beloved tea-machine, the one in
piece of Russian furnr-
ture.
1.-THE Zemstvo or Town Council OF
Torjok, founded a school of en-
broidery some fifteen years ago, in or
der that the towns embroidery tradi-
tons might be kept free of all artistic
blunders through all the years to
come. The school is now the central
influence in the industry. Girls enter
the school at about the age of 70
years, and finish the course in three
years. They are taught all of the ele-
ments of their work, including design
ing, and the natural, inherited ability
Of the peasant girls of this section has
been increased many times since the
Zemstvo's foundation"

WAR DEPRESSION
FAILS TO HINDER
FAIRS PROGRESS
Freight Bill on Exhibits From
Eastern Points Exceeds
$500, 900 Contest for Free
Trips Remains Open.

Before the moving picture descrip-
tons Of your free trip to the San Fran
cisco fair, including the expositions at
Denver and San Diego, actually begin
in this space in The Palladium, 1t has
been deemed advisable to assure all
the candidates that the European war
will not interfere with the success for
the big shows.
Freight Exceeds 100000.
That this Is true may be seen from
the fact that the freight bill for trans
portation Of exhibits to the Frisco fair
alone to date exceeds 100000. This
has nothing to do with the cost Of the
buildings and institutions Of various
kinds which will aid in making the
fair the greatest in the history of the
world
The work on the Frisco show, the
bigger OF the three which The Palla-
dium's guests will visit, already Is
much ahead Of its scheduled time for
completion. BY far-sighted policy OF
the fair management, exhibits and
buildings for the exposition were Or

for in the contracts This was done
in case something unexpected might
occur to set back the exposition. In
this connection who in the world
would have thought there would De
such a war as now RACES over Europe!
Place Exhibits Early.
The wisdom of having the exhibits
on the grounds eight months ahead OF
the time called for now Is apparent,
because the displays in question were
delivered at San Francisco long be-
fore the outbreak Of the war. Conse-
quently the war now cannot interfere
with their presence in the places al
loted to them. Not the least signlfi-
cant fact Is that since the war began
q number Of foreign nations have
passed governmental appropriations
greatly Increasing the amount OF
money spent by them.
All this Is explained in order that
the candidates for The Palladium's
great free trip will know at the outset
that they have set for themselves 4
goal worth while.

county have published notices that ar

given in fairness to applicants for
