To the Editor Of THE EvKNiNa STAR
One great evil OF our country is the little regard
men have for promptness In their obligations. A
clerk contracts debt to-day on positive promise
to pay the same in fifteen, thirty, or sixty DAYS
and II he pays it In twelve months he seems to think
he deserves prize for his promptness. This works
often fatal Mischief for upon this promise our bust
ness men make their promises to the wholesale
dealers, and there they mean business and expect
and force our merchants to pay the day they PROM
business men are ruined. Why, some are so dis
honest they really pretend be 1nsuted you ask
them to pay you what they ought to have paid
months before 1t is time this folly and rascality
had stopped. People should have enough regard
for the truth and their word to do what they
promise to do. j. H. NJ.

following increases gradually from day to day. and

yet IL the present man1pulatOrs OF the market keep
up the pressure for another week 1t will compel the
covering OF shorts and give the gene raj market an
important lift toward q higher average range OF
