Here is q free trade item that will in

old Democratic days when Buchanan
wa president and there was no IRE
publican robber tariff" MIR. Moon came
to South Bend from his Union township
farm and bought material for a pair of
pants. All wool goods were then so
high priced that he bought s~atinet, a
cloth made of cotton warp and wooden
filling, which is rarely sold in these days
of low priced all wool goods.
Mr.. Moon bought 81 yards of satinet
at IS cents a yard; IL yards of drilling
at l2tS cents a yard, IA buttons for IA
cents and a skein of linen thread at )
cents; total. s.. He then had to pay
for having the pants made by a tailor,
or get them made at home. Today
under a protective tariff, he can buy
satinet at so cents a yard and less. He
can buy a pair of ready made satinei
pants from Sl.25 to 81.

ported, with the fruitful crops of the
present year, a thousand others who are
delinquent members will be reported at
the next convention. Receipts of the
year S965. 81; disbursements, S202.49.
All ofthe general officers were re-elect-
ed.
Eva Williams and Mrs. Davis were

ticn at Denver. from the north and south
part of the state. Some changes were
made in department Superntedent.
Mrs Millikens, of Alpena, was made

tendent of juvenile work, in connection
with the Sunday school department.

dent, organizer and lecturer. and delegate

former position Of reporter. The
state president and superintendent of

Mrs. Louise NJ. Rounds, of Chicago,
entertained two immense audiences at
the opera house, there is no more pow
erful and logical speaker, in our nation
than is Mrs. Rounds. The mayor of

ers. This is the first time a mayor has
conferred that honor upon himself, IN the
history of the state. Mayor Collier will
long be remembered.
The second regiment comet band escort
ed the convention in a procession of 90
carriages, to the agricultural college, in
response to an invitation from the Fac

come. Nearly every n of the dele
gates found among the two hundred
students some one from her own
county. There are nine stude nts this
year from Day county, last year there
were twelve. Our citizens have no oc-

state supports so good a school as this is,

taken by the state convention of South
