Bradstreet's Monthly index oil
prices shows that the cost OF living
increased at more alarming pace
in September than ever before. The
list not only includes foods, bnt
metals, textiles, coal, building ma
terial and other necessities, the
prices of which grew during the
month 2.5 per cent over August.
This Is another evidence OF the
workings of the high protective
tariff upon which Mr.. Taft and the
Colonel pirate 80 extensively. 1t
forces people to pay high prices for
necessities for the benefit of the in
