Cash or Credit

Ore of tne c elrest lessons taught by
the recent "stringency" and the re
sul,ant hard times" is that it never
pays the wage-worker to so it debt.
The. assurance for so long from certain
quarters that there was nothing ahead
of Us but prosperous times, mas foster
et spirit OF waste and extravaganza
which nothing could excuse, and the
masses have laid by but little, if any,
for the rainy day. When the shops,
factories, and other employments be-
gan TO close down, or lay OIL. or short
time" their employees, there were few
situated financially 50 the harcships
were not felt. nut the minority who
had conservatively kept in view the
FEASIBILITY Of such q time are now
reaping the benefit OF their prudence.
\ merchant does not make his money
off his cash customers. but from those
who carry accounts or books with nm {;
the cash customer who does her own
marketing, knows what she Is buying,
and usually sees for herself, by home
weights and measures, that she gets
what she is paying for. The woman
who places her orders with boy, or
over the phone, has half q pound added
here, a small shortage there, an in
ferior quality in part or whole. and a
FttIe extra price for something be-
cause it is scarce. The merchant
wants to set rid Of his goods and the
, entrance on the books never lacks half
as large as the same SUM looks IN
cash.
If the credit customer notices and
complains, there is offered q plausible
. excuse. and as he is accommodated
with credit, she decides to make the

always 2 lot OF ordering that could be

& Dangerous Proposition.

The Democratic proposition fOr pub
lc.ty of RECEIPTS and disbursements O:
campaign funds, is step to eliminate
the corrupt use Of money in elections
which everyone should favor. To
Offset this Democratic plan and try to
make the voters forget The Life Insur-
ance, corporation and other tainted
money that was collected by Mr. Cor
teiyou Tor the Roosevelt capmaign,
President Roosevelt recommended in
his late message to Congress that the
! necessary funds be provided by Con
gress to pay the expenses Of the two
| political parties. This monste1ous
proposition has received no favorable
comment. except the endorsement OF
Mr.. Bryan in an interview ct Lincoln
on the Presidents message, which was
reported in the press dispatches Of
December 18th. Mr. Bryan said
His recommendations as to campaign
funds is a new idea that 1 am glad to
endorse"
1t is very unfortunate that Mr..
Bryan has seen fit to endorse this
new idea" He Will be compelled to
rcpudiate his endorsement Of this Re
publican plan; or he Will have TO defend
/ it. When he comes to see where it
might ana would lead. no honest man
can defend it. The first appropriation
to the political committee would, no
doubt, be moderate in amount. 6ut
! each succeeding campaign would bring
more and more pressure upon Congress
from both parties Tor larger capmairn
funds, and the Struggle for control Of
party machinery. instead Of being to
advocate principles. or men, would de
! teriocate into O scramble for q share
Of the public Doodle. Every corru9-
/ ZIONIST would become an active cardi-
/ date for Committeeman and even .
majority OF the Democratic members
Of CCnrgcss might be led to Iog-roIi
with the Republicans in increase the
| appropriation. The political strikers
anu healcrs instead OF being kept in
the under world Of politics, and as all
honest men eventually nope entirely
eliminated, would have constantly be-
/ fore their eyes the prize to fight for.
1t would be almost ipmossibIe to con-
| fine such public campaign funds to the
election Of president, for every Con
gresham would want a campaign fund
for his district. every Senator for his
State, and the opportunity for corrUp-
tion would be appalling.
Democrats cannot endorse this Rose
Welt proposition, and &c IS much to lie
hoped that Mr.. Bryan viii upon n
vestigation OF it's danger to the Re-
public, change his determination to
stand Tor it.

Fashion Notes.

Fashions are changing" says Grace
Margaret Gould, the fashion editor, in
the April WOman's Home Companion.
1.-The new idea emphasizes the simple,
classic forms of dress. Paris is look
ing to ancient Greece for her inSpira-
ton. Surely that is stepping back a
bit. Nevertheless the new gowns are
extremely artistic. even though it will
be hard to make them appeal to the
practical, economical American woman.
They are characterized by graceful,
clinging lines, and generally are one
piece models.
The princess dress is good illus
tration OF the modified Greek effect
1t is made of one of the rough silks,
which are so fashionable this season,
and in a shade which suggests bronze
as the coloring. The gown would also
| look we'll developed IN olive silk wolfe.
I'm making the costume, the short
wasted bodice is mounted on fitted
! guimpe, which may be OF filet net or
ali-Over lace, dyed to match the color
| of the fabric. The bodice is made
with two plaits on the shoulders, back
and front, and it is cut round at the
neck and has q large armhoie, though
! not IN the extreme Japanese effect.
Rounded revers. which extend over the
guimpe, give touch OF novelty. They
may be in the same shade as the gown
or a tint lighter.
The graceful Empire skirt is gored
and extends above the waistline. where
| it IS also mounted on the guimpe. The
skirt is attached TO the lower edge OF
the bodice. Where the joining occurs
a band of the material is applied, or a
piping Of satin. or an embroidered band
may be used. The skirt has a demi-
train and at the back falls ia a triple
box plat.
"A gown of this sort made of soft
blacksssatin would be extremely beaui-
ful using cream net for the gUimpe and
draining it in dull art shades of silk

Sixteen Raiders Killed.

Details of a bloody battle recently
fought between the might riders" and
the independent growers near Birm-
/ ingham, Marshall county, were convey
ed 20 Governor Wilson Tuesday in a
letter from a grower, and given out by
him. The name of the farmer will not
be given, as it is feared that he would
be aSsassinated If he were known.
The informant writes to Governor
Wilson that he saw the might riders"
as they went on their raid and when
they returned. One man was missing
and another is believed to have been
buried on the battlefield. Another was
fatally wounded. The eyes of a second
had been shot out. another was lying
wounded across his horses back, and
four others. three of whom have died
and were secretly buried, were being
carried by men on foot.
The writer tells Governor Wilson
that he has heard of Is might riders"
who have been killed in that section
o. the State and buried secretly IN the
last two weeks. Governor Wilson
puts credence in this report and Will
have the matter investigated.
The Governor has report upon tie
negroes in one raid. The outlaws
went TO an old negro's house. and,
when he was ordered, he came forth,
holding out both hands, his wife with
a there-year-old babe in her arms at
his side. All were shot down by the
mob.
There were two negroes stopping in
the house and they attempted to
escape by a back way, but ran into a
large crowd of the might riders"
In their desperation they fired their
guns and fought until they made their
escape in the confusion.
