at The APPEAL Office:
To the Editor OF The Appeal

have taken great many negatives, and
delivered the pictures rs fast as they could
be gotten out Probably one-third are not
yet delivered, but the firm has been and Ii
working as rapidly rs possible upon them.
! am satisfied that several respectable
firms are further behind in delivery Of
work than VIC are, yet no cry Is raised
against them and ought not TO be. The
writer bought half interest In the bust
ness, and will keep every contract he has
ever made. He cannot believe that the
people Of Memphis wish 10 drive him out
81 the business by such persecution n that
adopted by the Scimitdr, which seems de-
termined 20 ruin his business. II tho

good firms here have not been able TO de-

will unless our business Is destroyed and
our affairs ruined by defamation. I camo

sert the words ''per diem, weekly and

Randall's amendment. lie said he
wanted to know the difference between
the productive efficiency OF wages in
Europe and this country-whether il
man in this country did five times as much
work and got twice as much pay, he was
not the cheaper laborer OF the two.
Mr.. Randall am not going to philoso-
phize MS to that.
