A FEW
WORDS ABOUT
J0BPRIu7INC

1t used to be that the quality of
Job Printing did not amount 70
much, so far as success in business
was concerned. Any business man
or woman could get along fairly well
without it. But We live in another
and altogether different era.
Today it is necessary for business
people to have neat stationery if they
intend to occupy prominen, place
among their competitors.
When you see a piece of job print
ing crowded and the type jammed
too close together, with dirty-lookiug
ink and finger marks smeared over
it, on low grade of paper, it doesn' t
speak we'll for the firm which uses it.
In fact, YOU don't have the same
opinion Of that place as you have of
the man whose stationery is clearly
printed with good lux on the best
grade Of paper.
The quality Of stationery reflects
the standing of ones business. Ii is
therefore duty YOU owe to yourself
to have good printing.

Principles of Andrew Jackson. Made
Effective and Permanent. VIII Re.
lease Country from Grasp of Greed
and Restore True Democracy. Says
William Randolph Hearst.

Responding to numerous invitations
to attend Jackson day celebrations in
various cities OF the United States.
William Randolph Hearst. whose du-
ties compelled him TO remain I'm Wasl,-
ington. issued the following address
to the people OF the United States:
The name OF Andrew jackson will
always stand for fundamental. fear
less and victorious Democracy.
His name is inspiring. especially
worthy OF reverence at this time when
the people again encounter an attempt
by INSCRIPTIONS wealth 10 control the
government of the country.
Today's situation resembles. in a
greatly exaggerated form. that with
which Andrew Jackson dealt when our
republic was young
To realize the work that Jackson
did we must remember that he not
only attacked and destroyed a national
danger in his own time. but undoubt-
edly put OF for many years that
growth i'm the power of financial cor
rupuon which threatens the country
now. This nations DEVELOPMENT of in
dividuality. liberty ana prosperity for
SO long time under popular govern
ment we owe TO the genius with which
Jefferson met the questions OF his day.
TO the courage and lighting quality
with which Jackson attacked and de-
stroyed the public enemy OF his day.
Never i'm the history of this country
has arrogant ovcrpowering predatory
wealth been as mcnacing as 10 is now.
never through the wide exposure OF its
methods has IL been as thoroughly de-
tested as IL is now. The criminal trust
issue is the dominating issue i'm the
minds OF the whole American people.
To deal with the criminal trusts rad
ically. making of them it's great issue.
Is the duty Of the Democracy Moral
duty demands that the Democratic
party attack ana destroy mis.Ovcrn-
ment 10y trusts. And political wisdom
(the duty Of leaders 10 their partyl de-
mands that the trust question shall
dominate in all political agitation until
the end OF the next campaign.
Jackson day reminds Us that the ac-
cidental election OF Democrat on
some tritling basis OF expedicncy is no
wise or worthy aim for Democrats.

Among the important bills before
