CONSTANT SOLICITING.
Merchants Soured by Endless Chain
Begging of Children and Grown ups.

Complaint that is not superficial is
heard from business men over the
constant Fostering that they are sub
jected to by solicitors. principally
children and young people, for con-
tributions in aid Of about every
scheme and plan that nimble brains,
not always their own. can contrive.
with view to separating people from
their money. The business men seem
to be first choice for picking with this
horde of canvassers. They want a
dime for this, twenty-five cents for
that. fifty cents here. and a dollar
there; and the business man, anxious
in q small community not to antag-
onize any interest, digs UP the coin
| for the hold-up assessments, grins,
and bears it.
As taxpayers, the merchants stand
| to meet liberal part Of the expense
Of running the town, and they do so;
| they make no objection to donating
occasionally TO worthy causes, but
| the daily begging to which they are
| being subjected is little more In prae-
| tice than looking the gift horse in the
mouth. It costs a business man some
! thing to live as well as 1t does other
| people, and it is generally understood
| that all the money they handle is not
profits.
| An appeal to parents to Investigate
carefully and then consider prayer
| fully any proposition Eaat involves the
sending of their children on tour of
the stores to solicit money would
make good plank in Danielson's plat
form for everyday life.

BARROW MAKES
SWEEPING DENIA
EVERY BIT OF THE EVIDENCE

TALLY FALSE.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, July 81
The case of the defense in the bribery
trial of Clarence s. barrow reached
it's climax today in mass of denials
and contradictions by the lawyerde-
PENDANT, in which he verbally swept
away every charge and accusation
made against him since the trial be-
gan. Every shred and particle of
testimony given by Bert Franklin,
John r. Harrington, George Benin
and detective Guy Biddingen was
characterized by barrow as false.
After the denials came a narration
by the defendant of negotiations
which eliminated in the compromise
rieas of the Mcnamara brothers
These details purported to show lack

above the ordinary conversational

of the buden which rested upon him
in bargaining for the lives of his eli
ents that he showed any trace of

1t was the hopelessness of the case,
he said, that prevailed upon him to
agree to the Lincoln Steffens propo-
sition.
