for high prices.
"The tariff law is not the sole rea-
son why it is harder to make both
ends meet than it was a few years
ago." says the article. There are
other reasons. They may be summed
up in two words-special privilege

terror of the bank. After blowing op-
en- the second door the burglars helped
themselves to the money inside. They
took $4,000 in paper money and $4,000
in silver.
Completing their work in the bank,
the four men went back to the garage
and carried the baker to the bank and
laid him on the floor One of their
number then drove up in carriage,
the rest of the party entered the We
hicle, and all departed.
