We had given warning to our rea-
ders to be careful how they pressed
those indebted to them. At this time
with people half scared to death it is
as difficult to arrange for debt of a
few dollars as it would have been a
few months ago to have paid debt of
as many hundred dollars. The last
day for bringing suits in the Circuit
Court was last Friday and we are
sorry to say quit number of unnec-
essary suits have been brought. We
again beg our people to stand by each
other instead of bringing bankruptcy
by unwise moves.
