that the administration of Rolla
Wells Of st. Louis as treasurer of the
democratic national committee will
mark a new epoch in the use of mon

Mr.. Wells has brought to bear his
long years of experience in the ham

is being managed with the same eff

Mr.. Wells was mayor of St Louis

line, being one of the purchasing de-

whether it be lead pencils or million

quistition prepared in triplicate by the
head of the department desiring the

then presents this requisition to Mr..

requisition then comes to the purchas-

all the business houses in Chicago, OBJ

is given to the lowest responsible
