ASK FUR CONT INUANCE IF
 HEARING ON RATES

On account of changes made by the transcontinental railroads in the application for lower through rates on many commodities, moving either east or west, representatives of the shippers of the intermountain terri tory have found it necessary to pe- tition for a continuance of the hear ing to be hel1 tt Chicago on Nov. r. to the interstate commerce com mission yesterday.
 The necessity for the postpone ment came yesterday to the traffic bureau of the chamber of commerce and to the state corporation commits sion, to the former from J. A. Ford secretary of the intermediate rate as sociation, setting forth that the trans continental traffic bureau had so amended and supplemented its orig inal application, making complete changes in the schedules so as to make the exhibits and data which the shippers have been collecting for the last three months of no effect. The telegram stated that Attorney Karl Gartner representing the ship pers of the int ,rmountain territory, is now in Washington and had made application to the interstate com merce commission for a postponement of the hearing for at least three months. Petitions were forwarded by the traffic bureau of the cham Der of commerce and by the corpora tion commission.
 Governor Campbell on Nov ad- dressed the following letter to the governors of Texas, Oklahoma, Kan sas, Nebraska, Iowa, North Dako- ta, South Dakota and Wyoming urg- ing prompt cooperation in opposing the original application at the hear ing then recently fixed for Nov. IT. and calling attention to the disas- trous effect of such a changing ot rates as that which application had been made:
 T am enclosing herewith copy of Fourth Section Application No. 19. same being an application by the transcontinental carriers for permis- sion to establish lower rates to Pa cific coast terminals from eastern de- fined territories than are contempo- raneously applied to intermediate points. Should such a rate adjust ment be authorized by the interstate commerce commission it would have the unavoidable tendency to destroy all jobbing interests and retard the growth and development of all the commercial and industrial enterprises in the intermountain states and also over a large district of your state affected by the proposed change ir rates.
 1 Tn view of the fact that this mat l ter is of vital importance to the com mercial life of a large number O, the communities of Texas, I most earnestly request that you brine this important mater to the atten- tion of the commission of your state having Jurisdiction over the regula.

 Old brushing methods do not effectively combat it. Much is left intact, forming dingy coat. And most tooth troubles traced to it.

SENATORS ATTACK
PRICE OF COTTON
CONDITION LAID TO FEDERAL
RESERVE BOARD BY WATSON.
HELM HITS EXCHANGES.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-With the
supply of cotton unable to meet the
demand three southern senators,
Smith of South Carolina, Hef1n OF
Alabama, and Watson of Georgia, de-
livered speeches in the senate this al
ternoon, constituting a joint inquiry
into the market, which is still far be-
low the cost of production.
There is no explanation or justifca-
ton for the situation, according to
Senator Smith Senator Watson pro-
ceeded against the federal reserve
board. Senator Hefin urged the de
capitation" of the stock exchanges OF
New York and New Orleans, and in
addition charged that the federal re-
serve board was chiefly responsible
for the plight of the farmer.
In connection with the situation, the
proposed amendment to the cotton fu-
lures act, introduced by Senator Dial,
OF South Carolina, which requires the
exchanges to deliver the exact grade
of cotton the purchaser had contract
ed for, and which, it is contended,
would greatly rebound to the interest
of the south, remains hidden in the
committee.

PITTSBURG, Pa.-Humming soft,
ly to her 5-year-old daughter as she
rocked the latter to sleep Mrs. Cath
crime Carbon, AZ, sat in her home in
Page street, McKees Rock, late last
night Suddenly a crash of revolver
shots from the darkness outside shat
tered the window near her and she
slipped to the floor dead, still clasp
ing her child. who died in the Ohio
Valley hospital this morning. Seven
bullets entered the mothers body.
Two struck the little girl, one pene-
trating her head. The brutal murders
were committed in revenge for Mrs.
Gardens failure to comply with black
mailing letters demanding $500.
Neighbors who peered from their
windows on hearing the shooting saw
two men dash from the shadows of
the Carbon residence and leap into a
green racing car, the engine of which
had been left running as it stopped at
the curb. A moment later, the car,
driven at top sHeed, had disappeared.
Investigation by county detectives
has led to the belief that the assassins

atoms, similar to those of the Black
hand, have stirred terror in other

May Fix a Definite
Date for Easter Sunday
Astronomers Will Meet in Rome to
Discuss the Wandering Day.

The vatican has announced that a
conference of astronomers will take
place in Rome next April, under the
presidency of Cardinal MERCER, with
the object of reforming the calendar
and fixing Easter. The occurrence this
year of Easter Sunday on March Il,
within five days of its earliest possible
date, revived the proposal for a fixed
Easter.
No fewer than 10 casters will hap
pen in March between now and the
close of the century-an average OF
one every FIVE years-unless some
thing is done to prevent the, errat1c
wandering of the festival between
March p and April rs. Under the ex-
isting ecclesiastical rule Easter Sum
day can fall on any of the IS dates.
The present rule is that Easter must
be Sunday and that the ecclesiastical
iull moon (Which is not the same as
the real moon) upon which it depends
must occur on one of the seven days
Immediately preceding it. Thus, to have
Easter Sunday on its earliest date,
March p, the ecclesiastical moon must
be full on March Il, which date must
also be a Saturday.

Ludicrous Situation.
"Mr. President, if that were not lu-
dicrous enough, the Jew cannot wor-
ship his God without violating the law
or getting an exemption, the Catholic
cannot worship his God without VIC
lating the law or getting an exemption.
As my friend, the senator from Ken
lucky, knows, there was a war inside
the Catholic church for centuries be-
cause it took away from the laity the
right to drink the wine and confined
it to the priests. The laity wanted some
of it. The priests took it away from
them, and the priests still have it; and
now we do not want either the laity
or the priests to have it, but they are
both going to have it. You need not
doubt that. We Baptists, we Metho-
dists, we Episcopalians, we Presbyte-
rians cannot worship God without vio-
lating the law or getting an exemption
from it. That is queer state of af-
fairs. 1t seems to me somebody is get

ATLANTA, Ga-The Amalgamat-

now disband.
The anvil chorus is silenced.
The knocker is knocked.
The pessimist has no place to voice
his woes.
At least not in Georgia. Not in At
lanta. Not at all.
AS witness the statement OF Joel
Hunter, business counsellor, who SUI
pervises the audits of many manufact-
uring concerns here and throughout
the south, that the payrolls OF manu-
featuring plants and other big con-
Germs in Georgia have shown mark
ed increase. Mr.. Hunter declines to
give out any confidential information,
as a matter of course.
This increase, Mr.. Hunter says, in
dictates prosperity of the healthy va
'riety. 1t is concrete, exact, basis up
lon which one may compute with &C
'CuraCy.
1t indicates, too he says, an increase
in the manufactured products IN At
lanta, in Georgia, in the south. 1t
shows that the section is going tor
ward; that normally prevails; that
there are workers in the south who
have earning power and that there
are factories in the south which have
producing power.
The figures alone, according to Mr..
Hunter, if pointed out in many in
stances, are sufficient argument for OPP
timism. The pessimist, he says, has
lost any argument he may have had;

Half a million Chinese Nuchwang

and many millions OF Australian rab-
bits contributed their furry coats to
make the hats worn by our fighting
men. Figures gathered by the Smith

blankets were provided for the use OF
American doughboys in Europe. In
one year of the war the medical de
partnent OF the army called for 574,-
100000 yards of surgical bandages.
Two hundred and sixteen million
buttons were required in a single year
for army shirts alone. A requisition
for 100000 pillows disclosed short

OF the United States had contributed
to their utmost it was necessary to

The average American soldier was
blessed with an excellent appetite, and
he ate nearly three-quarters OF a ton
OF food in a year. American armies in
Europe could not get along with Jew

WON EN- OF SCHLEY
LOSE IN ELECTION
]. H. HOLLOWAY WINS FOR
TAX RECEIVER IN SPIRIT
ED SPECIAL RACE.
WOMEN IN POLITICS RESENTED
Relative of Mrs. Rainey, Who With
drew, Was Defeated by Ten Votes.
Had the Loyal Support of Every
Woman Who Was Registered.

ELLAVILLE, Ga.-There is woe
among the good women of Schley
county as a result of their first expert
ence in politics. Going solidly to the
polls in Tuesdays special election to
fill the vacancy in the office of tax re-
ceiver, they found the men of the COM
munity largely framed up against
them and they lost, their candidate be-
ing defeated by 10 votes out of 542
cast.
An interesting story surrounds the
election here. A few weeks ago A. S.
Rainey, a highly respected citizen and
tax receiver for many years, died. A
special election was called to fill the
vacancy and his widow announced,
she being the first woman ever to an
nounce for office in the county. The
women of the county were interested
in public affairs, and many pledged
themselves solidly to her support.
But a number OF the men of the
community appeared to resent the APP
.pearanCe OF petticoat in politics,
viewing it as an encroachment upon
their long-held prerogative, and sever
al men prepared to announce against
her. However, it dawned upon them
that, with the strength known to be
behind her in the community, she could
easily dispose of a divided field, and a
caucus of the opposition was held. AS
result it was decided that J. H. Ho1-
loway should make the race against
Mrs. Rainey and attempt to insure the
perpetuation of a man in Office. Hest
tating, under the circumstances, to
make a fight which threatened to be-
come bitter, Mrs. Rainey at once with
drew, and in her place T. c. Tondee,
relative, announced, passing the word
around that he would divide the pro-
ceeds of the office with the widow of
the late incumbent who had just with
drawn from the race. And so the race
developed until election day.
The women voted in full strength,
and it was said not female vote went
for Mr.. Holloway and not woman
registered failed to cast her ballot. The
voting went on all day, with the inter
est at high pitch, although there was
nothing but the best of order, and it
was with GREATNESS interest that the
result of the counting OF the votes was
awaited. Finally the announcement
came: J. H. Holloway, 176; T. c. Ton
dee, loo. The women had lost
But we are not discouraged" one
woman said afterward. Instead, we
have gotten thoroughly interested in
politics, and you may watch out for
the women next time We will be bet
ter organized and we have learned
something about the game Of politics
from the men who beat us this time"
