I know the wants and needs of our city and will do my best for you. I hope I have done nothing to warrant you in discharging me from Council. Your Vote and Influence Respectfully Solicited Leadin? Republican Paper Asks Mondell’s Defeat and Kendrick’s Re-Election. The forthcoming primaries in Wyo ming, August 22, will have a general interest outside of that State by rea son of Mr. Mondell, the Republican candidate for (Senator, having been the Republican majority leader of the House of Representatives. As an evi dence of the widespread interest is the following extract from an editorial in the Boston Transcript, one of the lead ing Republican newspapers of the country, asking for Mondell’s defeat and the renomination of Senator Ken drick: “The primaries in Wyoming are of interest only because Frank W. Mon dell, majority leader of the House of Representatives in name if not in fact, aspires to the seat of Senator Ken drick, the Democratic incumbent, as pires, indeed, to replace Senator Lodge as the Republican leader. Mr. Mondell may defeat Senator Kendrick —Wyoming is a Republican State— but he will never head in the party organization in the Senate. “It would be a great help to the Re publican party if Mr. Mondell were defeated in November. His leadership of the House in the last four years has been the most incompetent and ignominious that the country has seen in twenty years. He has opposed, rather than supported, President Harding on many measures which have come before Congress since March 4, 1921, despite the fact that they were in keeping with the plat form pledges of his party. In the melancholy event of his election the Republican leaders of the Senate should see to it that Mr. Mondell’s place in the Senate is as small as they can make it. If the people of Wyo ming wish to be creditably represent ed in the Senate they will let well enough alone by re-electing Senator Kendrick. Mr. Mondell is the same politician that Roosevelt condemned for all time in his ‘Autobiography.’ ” LET “PAT DO IT” 510 Courtland St. democratic Party and Hon est Business. When the question of recomniiting the Profiteers’ Orphan Tariff bill to the Ways and Means Committee or sending it to conference, with all of its deformities, iniquities and vices up on its head, was under discussion in the House, Representative Campbell (Rep. Kan.) undertook to forestall the inevitable by charging that a conspir acy existed between the importers and the great mercantile interests of the country and the Democratic party to repudiate the tariff bill, if it shall be passed before election, by increasing prices on the part of the retailer. This is the same Mr. Campbell who as chairman of the rules committee, pocketed a resolution passed by his committee and refused to introduce it in the House. He has since been re pudiated at the polls by the Republi cans of his Congressional district and his autocratic career as a chairman and a member of the House will ter minate next March. Here is the great Democratic Business Men’s conspiracy as seen by Mr. Campbell from the depths of his recent defeat. He said: “It will be a great disappointment to our Democratic brethren in the House and in the Senate and in the country if this bill is not presented to the country along about the middle of October, for the Democratic cam paign managers have arranged a very cunning campaign to be inaugurated the day after the tariff bill becomes a law. Already the arrangements are made, the stage is set, the prices are fixed. Advances are to be made in the price of every article covered in this bill by either specific or ad va- loren duty. The price is to be ad vanced on the orders of the importers down through to the retail dealers. * * * It is the hope of the Democratic party that the increases may be made about the middle of October. They will be made any time the bill passes before election.” It requires no imagination to fore see a rise in prices all along the line when the Profiteers’ Tariff bill actual ly becomes a law. Only a distorted partisan imagination embittered by recent defeat could see in this a con spiracy. The Democratic party pleads guilty to being a friend of honest business of all kinds and honest business men of all grades, big and little. The con nection existing between them is in the open broad light of day. They both desire public prosperity and the common welfare, and in opposing the nefarious Profiteers’ Tariff bill they are both working in the interest of the public and for the prosperity of honest business. In the Fordney-Mc- Cumbef Tariff bill the Republican re actionary leaders have arrayed the Republican party against every hon est, legitimate business enterprise in the country and have entered upon an alliance with every privilege-seeking profiteering business class.

Qabot ought to be fixing the duties on silk hats, bouton nieres and de luxe editions. Uncle Truman Newberry’s record is an open checkbook. We used to say that we Republicans simply had to get the taxes down, even if it was only a matter of book keeping, and now as the campaign ap proaches apace, we are prepared to go a step farther and announce that we’ve got to do it, even if it’s a matter of straight lying. It is sort of pathetic when youth calls to youth and then gets the wrong number. You A re Safe And Your Doctor Will Be Satisfied When You Have Your PRESCRIPTIONS j Filled by . ! I Chas. A.
