CAN THEY AFFORD IT?

Beloit Gazette: Once in while a
notice comes from some faithful
postmaster telling of the fact that
Mr.. So-and-So has refused his paper.
OF course this method is good one
to use when a publisher persists in
sending his paper after being told
to discontinue it and saves further
trouble.
It may be that some employ 1t in
the first instance in order to save a
2-cent stamp and the stationery nee
essary to write a courteous letter to
the editor requesting him to stop the
subscription.
1t may save time and be sure
that no more copies win find their
way onto the pantry shelves.
But the fact remains that in nine
cases out Of every ten the subscrib-
or who refuses to take his paper
from the postoffice is back on his
subscription account. The amount
which he seeks to defraud the pub
fisher ranges from 25 cents Gas did
the case in Beloft this week. to a
few dollars.
Can a man afford to sell his hon.
esty, his character and his reputa-
ton for 25 cents or even a dollar or
two? It's pretty cheap, isn't it:
The editor needs all the money that
Is due him but he has far the better
end OF the deal when a delinquent
subscriber seeks to repudiate an hon
Est debt by refusing his paper.

CURTIS, OLD SOLDIERS FRIENl

The National Tribune, the ma
tional organ of the G. A. r., is out
for Charles Curtis for United States
senator. 1t says:
mot only the veterans and their
widows of Kansas, but those all over
the country, will feel an intense in
terest in Senator Curtis candidacy.
No man since the war has been a
better or more effective friend OF
the veterans than Charlie Curtis
For fourteen years a member of
the house and six years member
of the pension committee in the
senate. Every one Of those years he
filled with constant, uhselfish, in
defatigable effort for veterans and
their dependent ones. He made no
question when any matter concern
ing the interest of the veterans came
up, but threw the whole of his great
energy and ability into securing its
passage. He struggled with rare per-
sistence and energy for the passage
of the Sulloway bill.
THE veterans and their widows Of
Kansas owe it to themselves, as we'll
as to Senator Curtis, to bring all the
votes they can into the primary to
secure his reelection. This would
be the commonest gratitude for the
past, and his election would secure
for them a strong and reliable friend
in the senate that they could always
reckon upon with the utmost conf
Ience. Let every veteran. veterans

One of the candidates for supreme
court justice who will have large
vote in this county is Judge G. H.
Buchanan of Winfield. He is an able
judge and one of the best lawyers
in the state. He was speaker Of the

1911 and was particularly a friend
of Dickinson county in the recogni-
ton given its representative. c. A.

this county was interested. There is
