THE NEW
TARIFF BILL
One Of The Most Important
Before Congress

One of the most important
meetings of Congress in many
years is now being held in Wash
ington. 1t was called in special
session by President Wilson to
revise our present tariff laws.
Just what the outcome will be is
as yet problematical, but the
final result will be watched for
with great interest. In The
News this week you will find a
three-column article from Con-
gressman Oscar Underwood,
Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, explaining
what the proposed Legislation
means to the country; also a
four-solumn article giving a con-
else statement of the changes
proposed in the new bill. These
matters are of grave importance
to all and we hope our readers
will avail themselves of the op.
portunity of reading about them
IN The News, and thus be post.
ed on the matter.
The News is the only paper in
Meade County that will publish
these articles and we are proud
of the fact that we have secured
them. You will always find the
good things in The News.

They paid every depositor every

They paid the expenses of the

And this is the story of the
Oriental Bank. The financial
pirates of Wall street broke up
the Brooklyn Bank and the Bor-

plundered the Oriental and sent
1t to the wall with a crash; they
blasted the reputation of Kelly,
broke his heart, and he died in
less than a year. But before he
died he left written statement,
giving this story as ] have given
it to you.

many instances that could be CIV

GOV. HODGES
ECONOMIES
Proposes Big Save In State
Institutions

Institutions
Topeka, April 14--Governor
Hodges has worked out a scheme
by which he hopes to save the
state of Kansas considerable
sum of money each year by hav-
ing the supplies for all the in-
stitutions purchased at one time
and under one contract. The
governor has arranged for the
board of control, the board of
corrections, the board of admin
istratlon, and the board of man
ayers of the Dodge City Sol
diers' Home and Mother Bicker-
dyke annex TO meet IN Topeka
the last week in May and let the
contracts for all the supplies for
the state institutions.
The supplies will be purchas-
ed for month periods.
State penitentiary, State re-
formatory, Boys Industrial
school, Girls Industrial school,
Topeka Insane hospital, Osa-
watomie Insane hospital, Larned
Insane hospital, Hospital for
Epileptics, School for feeble

phans' home, Soldiers home at
Dodge City. Bickerdyke annex
for soldiers wives, at Ellsworth,
State University, State Agricul-
tural college, State Normal
school and branches, School for
deaf, and school for the blind.
For eight years the board of
; CONTROL has been buying the sup.
plies for all it's institutions at one
time, the contracts being let for
six-month periods, and this
worked saving of some sixty
thousand dollars year in sup
porting these institutions. BY
the supplies for the other insti-
tutions at the some time, it is
believed that further saving to
the state for every institution
will be made, carrying out Re-
publican economy proposition.
"Kansas has been buying its
supplies piecemeal,' said the
governor. The penal and char
table institutions buy over half
million dollars worth of food
supplies every year and about
three hundred thousand dollars
worth OF clothing. There is no
reason why all of these supplies
cannot be purchased at one time
and under one bid, and with big
contracts like this, extending
over period of six months, the
state ought to get the very low
est prices that can be quoted,
Except the blind and deaf schools
the educational institutions do
not buy clothing or food. but
they use great quantities of
school supplies every year and
each one has bought its supplies
separately. There is no reason
why all the schools cannot buy
all their supplies together and
get the lowest price on large
quantities"
