Watea have been figuring on going t
one. or both of the Pacific coast esposl
tlona net year. However, If plana con
template hy the reJIwoda ami llaely to
he matured aa talked at this time are
to maintain. If theea employe to to
the ihow the chance are that they will
pay their far or walk.
In the. it It haa been the custom to
give railroad employ" transportation to
alxrtit any place that they might want to
vlalt. What haa been the rule with refer
ence to employea baa applied In the caae
of families of auch employea and otheri
dependent upon them for 'ipptrt Now
there to likely to be change with reier
ema to traneportatlon to tha Paclflo
roast. , ,
It la asserted among railroad men that
the Ceneral, Bouthem. Western, Northern
Paririe. Oreat Northern and Santa Fe
roads, all reaching Paclflo ooaat points
have intimated that they are not going
to do any great amount of free hauling
of even railroad people next year and If
tha rank and file of railroad employea
want to aeo the exposition. They will
have to pay railroad fare Just the earn
aa other people.
We Free Rlaea West.
It ta probable that the Union Paclflo
will give Its employee traneportatlon aa
far aa Orden. tha Burlington. Rock laland
and tha Missouri Pacific, aa far as Den
ver. but from theae points, on west, there
will be no free lidea. It la possible that
a half rate may be mad, but there Is no
certainty even of thla.
- It la a j ant-ted that tn railroad paaeenger
officials figure that if they give trane
portatlon to railroad employe for the
round trip, It would mean that not less
than UO.OOO to SoO.CM people would be
carried free, and that this would be a
ta that would aot be Justified under tha
circumstance. However, official who,
according to the railroad rufea of
courtesy arc entitled to annual passes,
will be given transportation that will
take them and the person dependent
upon thelm, to the Paclflo coaat and
back. But aa It looks at this time, all
other who are In the employ of the rail
roads will have to pay If they go to
the ahows. The question ha not been
finally passed upon, but a number of
conferences have been held and Indica
tions are that there will be little doing In
the way of free ride.

In this volume Dr. Olbbona ha brought
within brief compaaa the diplomatic his
tory of Europe for the laat fifteen or
twenty years, explaining how, the pres
ent map of Europe ha been made. The
title of the book, therefore. I In a way a
misnomer, which 1 accentuated by the
final conclusion that the only v. ay to
have aVolded the catastrophe of a general
European war In August, 1914. would have
been to allow Oermany to make the
new map of EMroua according to her own
dealrea and conditions. Who la to make
the new map. and what It will b when
made. Is left entirely to conjecture ex
cept as Individual judgment may be
formed on the basis of the changes in
the map by tha Balkan ware, the redis
tribution in northern Africa, and In Turk
ish and Persian Asia.

Something About Shoes
Now Tor a recital of a little conversation with our
Mr. Tuttle. Says he to me: "Do you think we could
interest people in a Shoe Sale, while their minds are
on holiday wares?" Reply: "Sure, our one-time
boss used to say there Is a price even for brick dust."
Mr. Tuttle said: "I have about 300 pairs of Wom
en's fine Shoes that I would like to get rid of."
Frank, wasn't he? Well, his name la Frank and
perhaps that explains it. The styles, he said, are
good, beat sellers, Indeed. They were $4, $5 and $6.
Mostly small sizes from 2 to 6. There are a few of

New Isn't it funny what peculiar quirks the mind
has? Our headline reminded us of "IXHIB." Now
let us reason out the connection. First, the name
"Cobb" stands for goodness next for good Candy
and then we said, "by their fruits" and Cobb has
all kinds of fruit cake and fruit candy and there you
have It. 80 when we established the connection we
said, what shall we say to the lover of Cobb's Can
dies, for Saturday? HERE IS THE ANSWER:
Black Walnut Cream Kisses. 30 a pound. A de
lightful high quality confection, creamy, melting'
kisses enriched by a liberal proportion of new Black
Walnut meats. What do you think of that? Then,
he said Butterscotch, box containing , pound for
15." each piece wrapped separately. Smooth!
rich! Dellcioua We said, stop, that's enough. Th
children love it and it's good for them. And then
he went on, reeling off a story of sweetness which
was delectable
