And meet the risen Lord to whom We

At Eastertide.

Their dewy cups. and field and noun

Thrill with their bursting buds of white

died.
Then will we bind his holy cross with
bloom,

Advancing Prices.

The retail price of wagons and bug
gies is to be increased so per cent this
spring, was the decision reached by the
National Wagon-makers' Association at
a meeting held in Chicago recently.
"a scarcity of the right sort of raw
material and car shortage were given
as reason for the advance. /" The car
shortage would hardly seem a good rea-
son for advancing prices, but the price
of lumber and iron have advanced so
per cent, chiefly by the monopoly en-
joyed by the Lumber Trusts and the
Steel Trusts in consequence of the
tariff protection on their products.
When the purchasers of new wagons
and buggies find the price demanded is
so much higher they should thank the
Republican politicians tor giving them
that evidence of trust prosperity and
continue to vote for Republican Con-
gress who stand pat on these condi-
tlons. If the tariff tax was taken off.
or greatly reduced, on lumber and steel
the present price of ali articles into
which those materials enter would be
cheaper than they are today, instead
of being advanced so per cent.
