Republicans Apt to Reach Subscribers One Day Late.

The change in the schedule of Monon trains is quite certain to make it impossible for many sub scribers to The Semi-Weekly Republican to get the paper on the date of publication, unless the carriers are required to await the arrival of the milk train at Parr, Pair Oaks, Thayer and Roselawn. While The Republican is printed on Monday and Thursday afternoons, it is impossible to get it in the postoffice, in time to catch the afternoon mails on those days. The papers will go to the postofflces named on the milk train Tuesday and Friday mornings, but this train is scheduled an hour - later than formerly and the papers will probably have to remain in the offices until the rural route deliveries on Wednesday and Saturday.
