My carrier, city, Publiened Daty ‘by The Star Publisning Co, Phone Mais Just a Word to Congress Gentlemen of the house and senate, just a word in your fuss over your tariff ¢ Don't make the mistake of thinking we are not interested. How can @e tell you what we think? We don’t know, The bill has been so largely Kept under cover, is so huge and complex, and so technical in form that the people fhave had no chance to form opinions, So we are on the whole keepify rather still. You can get away with business poisoning, economic midnight assassination, and trust highway, robbery if you want to, for a time. - ) But we shall remember that the special interests know exactly what they want, ‘and that they have their say. "We took your word on the special tariff bill, for instance, in which you “protected” ‘wheat. We know that wheat has gone down 20 per cent in price since, We think + that talk about helping the American wheat grower was bunk—we think that already. We hope there isn’t so high a percentage of bunk in what you have just been doing but we are harassed by doubts. ” After we begin trying to live under your Fordney bill we. shall gradually find eat whether yot are fit for your jobs. You have put blinders over our eyes and are becking us in between the shafts. You can ‘oad anything under heaven on the cart, ") and we shall not know it; for you give us no chance. $ But if the thing turns out to be the economic crime which some of us out here in “Ghe slashes suspect, God help you, gentlemen, in a political way after the blinders are ripped from our eyes by the hand of experience. The anger of the nation is already aroused against profiteers and bloodsuckers who thrive and have thriven thru governmental favors. If you are voting more such favors, hand of the people will not spare you when the tables are turned and the voters the reins in hand and are wielding the whip. 4 THO.

BARTON \ N England, paper C money seldom is allowed to get dirty. It does not stay out long be- fore it gets back to the Bank of England or some one of its branches, and it never goes out again. A note of Engiand keeps the character of a neta, and ts not reissued. When it comes back the Srst time, even if it has not been out an hour, ia cancelled, It fs not so in this country. Our paper money fe used and used until it js worn to shreds and abominably soiled. ‘The government will take ft back whenever it i# sent in for redemp- tion. The expense to a local bank is amall of sending to Washington & package of soiled money. I should like to start a nation wide campaign for clean money. © Why should not the merchants of any town hang out’ a sign: "WE PAY ONLY CLEAN MONEY"? How to éo it? not pay it out again. Let the merchant keep it to send to the bank with his dally deposit, quit fighting about paying, and it is to begin thinking about some payments made, but, of course, always taking into coisideration the fact that we must give some rea- sonable extension of time to those countriea.—Sen, Reed (DJ, Mo. when it has a quantity of soiled money, send it to Washington and get new clean money instead, In w few weeks the old dirty, tat Fit were possible for the thou- | sands of U. S. dealers to gather ‘into one big: national convention,’ the public would have a surprising picture of good tire merchandising. Probably you would see banners feading like this:—“ : \**We sell tires and tire service—not ‘discounts. i s‘Our customers demand the par quality tire at a net price,"’, _»"*Ask us about the leadership of U. 8.
