CULLoM SEES ISSUE
Senator Believes Rate Situation May
Figure in Campaign.

Chicago. June 2.-Senator Shelby NJ.
Cullom has returned to Chicago for the
summer to rest from his labors at wash
ington. The senator has suspended the
prolonged railroad rate hearing, and
altho the question has not been COM
pletely threshed out by the senate COM
mittee on interstate commerce, he made
some comments on the situation today
which are Of interest, especially as Sen
ator Cullom was the father of the fed
eral law which led to the present agl-
tation. He said:
1.-THE question Of railroad rates has
| grown SO important that would not pc
surprised to see it become an issue in the
next presidential campaign, said Senator
| Cullom IT am hoping that the railroads
will be inclined to compromise the matter
| so it can be adjusted, not only for the re-
lief of the people, but In fairness to the
| companies, which have done SO much to
| develop the country and advance c1V1llza-
ton There is no doubt in my mind that
the interstate commerce commission
should be given the right it hasn't
i the right now-to investigate complaints
I and decide if a rate is unreasonable.
The railroads might compromise by
granting that right. and then the roads
might proceed to readjust things and fix
a reasonable rate If that is not agreed
to would favor giving the commission
4 the power not only. to say when a rate is
unreasonable, but also to fix a rate which
i is reasonable. This may be considered
by some as somewhat radical, but should
be done if the roads refuse to CONFRONT
Use as have indicated. If the roads viii!
concede the rights of the commission to
pass upon rates and will rectify overcharg-
es themselves the question can be solved
If the commission has the right to say
when a rate is unreasonable, either the
roads or the commission should then make
a reasonable rate. The roads cannot stoI
/ doing business. LIDO not think the orig
+ inal act needs, much amendment, for, as
Commissioner Knapp said the other day
/ the more the law is studied the more
valuable 1t seems to the interests Of the
{ whole country.

London Prices and Mine

A friend just returned from Lon
don was much impressed with the
values he got there in clothes made
to order. A good suit for $1,000 and
fine suit for $2700. He explained
to me that his clothes were made at
very high grade shop, and that
the prices were possible because
there was no duty on the woolens.
I took the wind out Of his sails
when I showed him the goods I
make up to measure at $15, $40 and
$25. 1 tell you that you can travel
the world over and come back to 80
Nicollet and beat the best tailoring
values you have found.
1t is the Mitchell method of
clothes made to order at hand-me-
down prices.
But just remember this: "There
is none so blind as he who will not
see and none so deaf as he who will
not hear" If you won't credit my
advertised statements to the ex-
tent of Investigating, you lose. I
keep right on making clothes for
men who do investigate.
I say to you that now I am MAX
ing to measure for $50, suits that in
normal season would cost you $40
or $25 here. That they will cost you
$50 to $40 at any shop that com
pares with mine in the character Of
the work. tsS
If you won't believe it, pay the
other man s price or wear hand-me-
downs, but the materials and the
values should be investigated by
you now.
The early season cold weather
sold my medium weights but it held
j back the, summer weights, that is
I why / adopted such drastic selling
methods.
These. are the summer weight ma
I terials that you can have made. up
to your measure for $15 and which
say are worth $50 to $40; serges
in blue, black and the most popular
slate shades; cheviots in blue and
black; worsteds in blue, black,
plaids and light colors, Scotch goods,
rough spuns, crashes, hannels,
brown mixtures, striped woolens,
black and white mixtures and so on.
All warranted choice wool, shrunk
before making.
And your suit when finished must
4 please you or no pay. Furthermore
it must stay right. That is my sure
enough guaranty.
Isn't it time to shed the winter
suit and dress ups Yours truly, #

Many women long for 4 child to bless
their homes, but because of some de-
bility or displacement of the female
organs they are barren.
Preparation for healthy maternity is
accomplished by Lydia L. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound more successfully
than by any other medicine, because it
gives tone and strength to the entire
female organism, curing all displace-
ments, liberation and inflammation.
A woman who is in good physical
condition transmits to her children the
blessings of a good constitution. Is
not that an incentive to prepare for a
healthy maternity?
If expectant mothers would fortify
themselves with Lydia Z. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound, which for thirty
years has sustained thousands of
women in this condition, there would
be a great decrease in miscarriages, in
suffering, and in disappointments at
birth.
