In nearly every community you viii

every woman you meet knows of the
great good it has been doing among
suffering women for the past 80 years.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,

many of whom state that it has saved
them from surgical operations.

Implied Compliment, Pleading
Not Guilty.

Pleading not guilty returnina
thanks for a compliment. and declar-
Ing his slogan a thing necessary to a
presentable campaign card, Mr. A.
F. Sweeney confesses in the letter
which follows. While declaring that
1t is only a republican who believes
in eXtrayagance, he makes no attempt
to explain why he should adopt a
slogan Of Economy, Efficiency and
Lower Taxes" during a city democratic
administration.
The letter:
Editor World:
Thanks for the implied compliment
TO be made the subject Of criticism
or attack by a republican paper is
the best testimonial a democrat can
get. But Pm not guilty as charged.
The fact that most Of my campaign
cards bear the slogan Economy, Eff
fciency and Lower Taxes, while the
words do not appear on some Of the
others, is an accident and not the re-
suit Of deep, dark intimidation by the
politicians as YOU charge in your edi-
toral.
When | went to the printer was In
a hurry TO get some cards and In pre-
pairing the copy, the slogan was mad
vertently left out. He ran off two
hundred withou: it and as soon as
noticed the omission ! had him put
II on the balance, and these | have
been using since.
Economy, Efficiency and Lower
Taxes" has heen good democratic doc
trine ever since | can remember and
without reflection on the present city
administration, it is good democratic
doctrine In Tulsa right now For II
is only the republicans who believe in
extravaganza I'm public affairs and no
body but the standpat members Of the
same grand old party could be foolish
enough to say that the measure OF our
prosperity is 90 be determined by the
Of taxes we pay, whether they
are collected directly or are levied in
the name Of a beneficent tariff
! trust you will be fair enough to
give this equal prominence with that
given the article to which it is re-
ply.
Yours truly,
\. +. SWEENEY.
