BREAD
Little Corner In the Market
 At Dawson

in last evenings News appeared an arr ticlc stating that m attempt had been made to form q bread trust in town. and that as result of the attempt. war was on between bakers. and bread was being sold at twelve loayes for dollar.
 \ Sun representative interviewed Mir. j. J. Blumcr. of the Washington bakery who Is the gentleman at the head of the attempt to form n cooperative bakery m Dawson, and to him Mir. Blumcr said:
 ''I vehemently deny any attempt 't forming n trust or combine and declare that the present cut and the former hlIh prices are the result of wasteful com petition. What Is aimed at is a co-opera- tive bakery. to save the wasted enort and needless business worry and rospon- sibilty. One delivery wagon and a good n1rse can deliver all the bread that ls now peddied by n half-dozen dough-bs- d,uhcd men behind as many hungry-look- ing dogs. One furnace fire. one set of lights. and no more stale bread would be the result of cooperative bakery' This waste Of energy and material the public has paid for in the past. and ! contend that the new plan would give the public better service. better material ana lower price than ever before. But these altruistic and communicable sentiments do not appears tO appeal to the matter-of' fact dough-punchers. and the last cut oi twelves loaves for a dollar will probably be followed by lower cuts--and perhaps inc poorhouse for some of us.
