offices hereafter.

their cost that they have killed the goose
that laid the golden egg declared Mr.
Whiting. The general Paper company
was an organization formed legitimateIy
as natural means for properly conduct

preciate the very fair prices that We're
granted to consumers Any man with ten
cents worth of brains will see that this
has been true. This yellow journeI yawp-

absurd.

company will be formed or not to combine
