HIGHER PRICES.

During the past ten years the
price of printing paper has in
creased about 80 per cent, yet
every printing Office in the coun-
try is doing work at the same
old price.
1t is simply impossible for
these conditions to continue.
Printers cannot live.
They must have an increase in
prices for their work.
Yet some business men com
plain at our present prices and
send their work to catch penny"
houses to be done by boy and
girl cheap labor-send lat much
money away from home.
The home printer spends his
money at home.
The business man says: "Ah,
well, business is business; lam
in business for what there is in
it and you cannot blame me for
buying at the lowest price"
Then the printer should say:
Very well; pay us for all the
little boosts and items we give
you and your business, your
marriage, birth, death and fun
eral notices: pay us for all we do
for your town to build it up and
to draw trade to it; pay us for
what we do for your churches,
schools and lodges, then let us
order all our goods at wholesale
and see how much you gain"
But no; the printer must for
ever go on, silent and faithful
burden bearer.
How would your town loolt
without its newspaper?
No other business does sc
much for the community and is
paid less for it.
All other businesses are pros
porous. The merchant puts his
prices up with the market.
Properties and rents have ad
vanced.
Professional men charge il
keeping with the times.

HOW ABOUT DEBS?

No doubt there are many good
socialists and they are honest in
their convictions, but taking
some of their leadesS as a cri-
terion, for instance Eugene V.
DebS, some of them must be
greatly misled. For instance,
here is an extract from a recent
proclamation of his, issued to
socialists throughout the coun.
try:
Arouse you, workingmen and
workingwomen of America. A
few men may be needed who
are not afraid to die. BE We al
so ready. Let us swear that we
will fight to the last ditch; that
we will strike blow for blow, and
that we will use every weapon at
our command and that we will
never surrender. Let us fight
Loyalty together in this crisis.
Roll up a united socialist vote in
California that will shake the Pa
citic coast like an earthquake,
and back it up with general
strike that will paralize the con
tinent. Let the sturdy toiler of
the Pacific coast raise the red
standard of revolt, and the work,
erS of all other states fall into
line and swell the hosts of Am.
erican freemen in their fight
to rescue their kidnapped broth
ers from the clutches of "a muir
derous plutocracy."

wish to emphasize is the fact that
that young man, with the honest coun.

with itching and scratching when he
told us that unmitigated falsehood.
His legs and arms must have been
crimson with irritation, yet he stood
right up there and denied it. Either
that or he lied when he said that
