1t might be we'll to call attention
to a declaration in the last demo-
cratic national platform adopted by
the convention which nominated
the president. 1t was as follows:
I'VE denounce the prot1igate
waste of the money wrung from the
people by oppressive taxation thru
the lavish appropriations of recent
republican congresses, which have
kept taxes high and reduced the
purchasing power of the people S
toll. We demand a return to that
simplicity and economy which be-
fits a democratic government, and
a reduction in the number OF use
less officers, the salaries OF which
drain the substance of the people. :
The lavish appropriation OF the
previous republican congresses was
denounced and yet the first demo
cratic congress appropriated SILL
600, 900 more than any republican
congress and taxation was lncreas-
ed in order to meet the economy
of a democratic administration; IN
Guiding an income tax in time OF
profound peace at home = and
throughout the country there is
business stagnation and great suf-
fering.

Commission on Industrial Rela-
tons, that philanthropic founda-
tons are inconsistent with demo-
cratic institutions. The fact that
men of great wealth are willing to
devote a portion of their surplus
millions to the public good, should
be encouraged rather than con-
demned.

the officers were after them, decided
to stop and disembark in the corn
fields. From a safe distance they saw
the marshal and his friends take the
car back to Vail. They then walked

The post Office department is TAX
ing every means to make the parcel
post system more popular with the
public. The regulations heretofore
have made the extreme limit in size
70 inches, but with September 1st
there is an increase to "a inches. In
measuring tape line is laid across
the package to find its greatest
length; then the tape is wrapped
about the shortest dimension clear
around. If both these measurements
do not exceed "a inches the package
can be sent. After September 1st one
sending package can obtain receipt
on payment of one cent extra above
the regular postage rate. With the
same date there is change in the
rates for insured packages, so that the
terms are as follows: Package whose
value is SIS or less, fee cents; not to
exceed $25, fee 5 cents; not to exceed
$50, fee 10 cents; not to exceed 500,
fee 25 cents. The receipt given for
the ordinary package on payment of
one cent is in no way an insurance,
but simply an evidence that the pack
age was deposited in the post office
Packages can be insured through the
rural carriers, and the receipt on pay
ment OF one cent secured from them.
