TWO connected telephones make the simplest form of tele
* phone communication.
Three segregated pairs give three lines for telephone talk.
Unite the three pairs by means of a central office and an
intercommunicating exchange system is formed, giving fifteen
talk tracks.
Five pairs thus connected give forty-five lines of communi
cation, and so on, in regular mathematical rule.
Millions of such groups are thus connected in the Bell

N. y. MASSMEETING TO
CONSIDER OPENING UP
OF EXPORT TRADE
Think Risk of Shipment Not So Great As Supposed—General
Suspension of Work on Piers—Five Thousand Longshore
men Idle—Steerage Passengers Fall Off 300,000
New York.—At a mooting tomorrow
of tho New York chamber of com
mere* « Mpc'laJ committee appointed
to consider for opening up ex
port trade will make its report. The
committee has held conference* wltn
merchants and hankers by many ot
whom it hag been contended that the
risk of shipment to European ports
is not so great as has been supposed.
It. was generally believed by the com
mittee members and others that the
shipping situation would be relieved
in a fw day 8.
Idle Pier*.
The piers of the Harnburg-Amer
lean and the North German Lloyd
lines in Hoboken, N. J., where seve
ral liners of each company are tied
up, there is a general suspension of
work. It is estimated that 5,000 long
shoremen are out of employment and
200 teamsters and about 1,000 freight
OPPONENTS RAPPED BY
HARDWICK BEFORE AN
AUDIENCE OF 3,000
Fine Impression Made By Senatorial Candidate in Atlanta-
Armory Speech—Crowd Enthusiastic For Hoke Smith.
Representative Stands By His Record
Atlanta.—Congressman Thomas W.
Hardwick’s address at the Auditorium
Armory Monday night served to bring
out the largest gathering of the year
to hear a political speech in Atlanta.
There were from 2,500 to 3.000 peo-,
pie on hand when the orator of the
evening was introduced by James L.
Key of Atlanta.
The speaker touched hardly at all
up<»n tiie parcel poet matter, in which
bgjlind Governor Slaton have differed
sb widely, nor did he devote any time
tri the tax equalization act, when he
has been fighting.
Praises Hoke Smith.
His time was divided between his
own record In congress and Governor
Slaton's record in the legislature and
in the executive office.
It was evident that the orowd in
the auditorium was overwhelmingly
for Senator Hoke Smith and corre-|
spending!y hostile to Thomas E. Wat
son. Time and again Mr. Hardwick’s
laudatory references to the senator
were applauded to the echo, while his
denunciation* of Mr. Watson were
equally as effective as applause pro
ducers.
Mr. Hardwick took the position that
handlers have been discharged by th*
large transfer companies.
Business In the flipping dlstjri-ct
of this city Is also at a standstill.
12,000 Parsons.
The poor commissioner of Hoboken
estimated today that of the 5,000 men
employed on the piers while they are
In full operation 3,000 live In that city.
This means he said that about 12,000
persons would have to be provided for
by the city unless the shipping situ
ation was speedily relieved.
Some relief from this situation may
result, however, from the absence of
the usual influx of Immigrants. The
falling off in steerage passages from
abroad for the year up to last week,
as compared with the same period of
last year was 300,069, which accord
ing to steamship agents and contrac
tors means a corresponding decrease
In the supply for the labor market.
It would be a' mistake to send Inex
perienced men to congress at this
time, and replied to the criticisms of
his absence by showing three wires
from Oscar Underwood, stating that
his presence in Washington 1» hot
needed at this time.
“When I am needed, I will go to
Washingtonsaid Mr. Hardwick.
Denounces All Opponent*.
The congressman was unsparing in
his criticism of Governor Slaton, and
particularly because the governor
would not accept his Invitation to a
Joint debate in Atlanta.
"You wouldn’t hire an Inexperi
enced man to run your business or
your farm," he declared. "You would
weigh the applicants and choose one
with experience, and the same Is true
In sending a man to the United States
senate. My experienc has taught me
the ropes In W’ashlngton and if you
send me there your Interests will be
well protected."
Calls Slaton Coward.
He prefaced his remarks with the
declaration that since Governor Sla
ton would not meet him In his home
town. It was Impossible to make
charges to his face. He said the gov
ernor had been groomed to run against
Hoke Smith, but had "run away.” ‘ He
is a Doinlnecker rooster, not of the
game variety,” declared Mr. Hard
wick. "and the ‘spurs’ on his legs are
nothing but feathers.”
Mr. Hardwick referred to the Grant
fortune, which he said was behind the
Slaton candidacy and said but for
that the governor ‘‘would not be heard
from.” He called Governor Slaton
"the artful dodger” of Georgia politics
and a tlght-rope walker w r ho could
span Niagara Falls without a pole.
Mr. Hardwick started In bad voice
but finished much better. He ex
plained that he had made 179 speech
es and that hla throat wae very sore.

When we see a steer endeavor
ing to butt a locomotive from
the track we may admire his
courage, but we condemn his
judgment.
There is an object lesson in this for the manufacturer
who spends his money for nation-wide publicity without
having distribution.
National advertisers who use newspapers spend their
money where it actually moves their products from the
dealers’ shelves to people’s homes. Newspaper advertising
is the most profitable, because it eliminates waste.
