It's true that Mary Grogan has

porters lately.

life-that's IS years-was to

But Mary is famous, because
|she was satisfied to live in one

her door, in this day and age.

STILL PROBE SUGAR FRAUDS
Indictments Against Those Higher up

New York, Dec. 21.-Sugar frauds
are again under investigation here and
hints thrown out uno1icially led to the
belief that an indictment against an
individual believed to be higher up
than men previously indicted might be
returned by the federal grand jury.
1t has been indicated that q con-
fesslon from some Of the men already
known TO be involved in the sugar
scandals was expected. Whether the
indictment anticipated depended on
the reported confession could not be
learned.
Meanwhile, definite development
in the sugar frauds cases was the ar
raignment Of Ernest Gebracht, for.
merly superintendent Of the American
Sugar Refining company's plant At
Williamsburg. He pleaded not guilty
to an indictment charging him with
conspiracy in connection with these
frauds.

THE MAIL ORDER HOUSE.

Emporia Gazette: The man who
buys goods Of mail order house, and
expects his neighbors to buy goods Of
him or to buy labor Of him, or to buy
profession service of him is ecnomi-
cally a leech. He is sucking indus
trial blood out of the town and gives
none back. He sends his profits out
of town like a Chinaman, and has no
more right to a standing in the com
munity than a foreigner. We are all
neighbors industrially in this town.
and the man who sends away for his
goods is not one Of us. He is Of an
other industrial system, and deserves
no mans support.
The fact that this is economically
wrong is recognized by the mail order
houses themselves. They protect their
customers as thieves by offering to
keep people from knowing where the
mail order goods come from. The
mail order houses have no tags on
their goods. They say in their cata-
lOgues that none Of their goods are
marked and that no one knows where
they we're bought. If It is proper TO
hide the place Of purchase OF an
article It is wrong to buy the article
at that price. Only the man who
steals is ashamed to say where be
got anything he has. There is such
a thing as tainted" dry goods
All Of such that are not bought at
home, Of men who befriended you
men to whom you owe = living are
tainted" because they come unfairly.
