Aside from an improved volume of

LABOR AND CAPITAL.

We favor the enactment and administra-

partially their just rights. Capital and

necessary to the other. Each has its rights
but the rights Of labor are certainly no less
vested" no less sacred" and no less
''inalienable' than the rights of capital
Constitutional guarantees are violated
whenever any citizen is denied the right to
labor, acquire and enjoy property or reside
where interest or inclination may deter
mine. Any denial thereof by individuals,
organizations or governments should be
summarily rebuked and punished.

 Anybody can buy for cash! 'Thatss easy" There's no special honor in the fact that one can walk into store, lay down in cold cash the full price asked for an article and so become the possessor. Come to think of it it's the coldest sort of a proposition. a mere transaction. To have credit given you is entirely different Makes you feel as though you were entitled to 1t What a great honor it is to be able to enter as store. select such goods as you want and arrange to pay for them in amounts and at times that are convenient to you. What n great dignity there is to credit, and how far reaching its beneficial effects.
 A large per cent of the worlds business owes fts existence to this great comodity. To buy for cash, then, is very ordinary. But to buy on credit is always a distinction that one should be proud of.
