Representative William SulZer of New

Sulzer's address was delivered in reply to
the toast Democratic Opportunity" at
the Jefferson's birthday banquet under

Democratic opportunity is at hand,

has failed to redeem It's promises; 1t has
disappointed the people; 1t has been
weighed in the balance and found want
ing: its tenure of official life IS short
on every issue today it is in the minority.
The republican party today stands for
tariff taxation that makes living a strug-
gle for existence; for subsidies that rob
the many for the few; for economic here
sizes that paralyze industrial freedom; for
Capitalization in government at washing
ton that destroys the sovereignty of tho
STATES; for political uxurpation that sub
verts the Constitution; for reckless sx-
travasance that Is little less than GRIM

monopoly and enslave the masses; for

HEARING IN SUIT APRIL Is
Until Judicial Opinion Settles
Test Case.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE. Md, April 1.-THE mer-
chants generally are gratified over the
new law prohibiting the use of trading
stamps.
While no single merchant will consent
to an interview for obvious reasons, many
assert In confidence that the new law will
operate to the advantage of both the
purchasing public and the retail mer-
chants.
Secretary Boggs' Opinion.
Secretary Thomas G. Boggs of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Association
is the only man in the city today who
seemed disposed to give expression to his
views.
To The Star correspondent he said to-
day:
ut Is a well known fact and one that
cannot be successfully controverted that
nowhere on earth can something be OBJ
tanned for nothing. Whatever one may
acquire in this world it is always paid
form either labor or money.
Therefore these premiums, so called,
which were given in return for books
filled with stamps, were paid for in the
increased price placed upon goods sold
by the merchants % this city. The trad
ing stamp plan was merely a means to
induce purchasers to buy without their
knowledge or consent certain articles
which they would not otherwise acquire.
THE retail dealers realized little or
no benefit from the system. and money
was taken from the pockets of the pub
lie to pay for the stamps
Law Is UP to Courts.
Just at the present time the operation
of the law is held in allegiance by the
suit instituted by the several trading
stamp companies operating here to re-
strain the states attorney from prose-
cutting and the police commissioners from
ma king any arrests under the provisions
of the trading stamp law, which the
companies will endeavor to have declared
unconstitutional.
The application was made for an in
junction to prevent execution of the law.
and Judge Morris of the United States
circuit court, after consultation with
States Attorney Owens, decided to hold
hearing April Is on the application for
the preliminary injunction. In the mean
time, it was understood that the trading
stamp companies and the merchants who
desired to continue the giving of stamps
would not be molested.
Practically all big retail houses are
observing the letter of the law. Secre-
tary Boggs stated that within the next
ten days he would have a report from the
committee of retail merchants on the
general effect upon trade of the discon-
tinuance of trading stamps.

put them in field adjacent to a box

They brought eight lambs. The best

buck lambs sold to the butcher for SIS
The three eve lambs were kept to In
crease the flock.
The next season the eight ewes with
Is lambs following were sold immedi

amples of just such kind of business
that can be done when the man is de
termined to do the business.
