The town has been full of drum

Wheeler friends that hate 'smiddle
men," or at least don't patronize
them. Some Wheelers have got
ten the wrong idea about "oppres-
sion" and trusts" They seem
to think the reason they don't get
better prices for grain, produce and
stock is, because: our merchants
and stock men won't give better
prices, when the truth is, they
can't. The "trusts" that is hurt
ing the country is far above our
retail merchants, and hurts them
equal, if not more SO, than the
farmers. That there is a wrong no
one doubts, and our Wheeler
friends should 60 to "headquar.
ters'' to right it. Surprising they
should Iut down every retail mer-
chant and kill all business In the

Think about this, Wheelers, before
you want to "break down" oul
