situation stated this morning that
While coal is at present coming into
the city in fair Quantities he feels
that people will have to exercise the
strictest fuel economy in order 70
avert a serious shortage next winter.
Mr.. North wishes to impress uD0n
the people OF the city the Imperative
need Of having their heating appara-
tus repaired during the summer
months, also the necessity of having
their doors and windows repaired to
make them more cold proof, If they
wait until cold weather arrives the
plumbers and carpenters will be so
busy that many will be unable to get
the work done. People must realize
that another cold winter is coming AID

wool deal erS, cloth manufacturers
and clothing makers, by which $75,-
100000 worth of clothing for men,
boys and youths is to be put on the
market at what seem to us low prices.
Suits for men are to cost SIS, with
lower prices for youths and boys,

Gently. Of course, this only provides
for q small part of the population,
but it is believed that it fixes the
price for all clothing of that grade.
Better and finer suits will cost more,
but prices suggested range very close
to those Of the pTe-War era
The matter is of interest here be-
cause it is possible that some such
arrangement may be made by our
government in an unofficial way. AS

Thoughtful republicans have realized
for some months past that only the
best wisdom of the party could save
the state for republicanism this year
and make it an important factor in
the national contest two years from
now. It had become unhappily ap-
parent that the rivalry of aspirants
was not only defea ting their own am
btions but imperilling party success;
and the feeling has steadily deepencd
that unless republican politics could
be lifted to q higher plane such hope
as there was of victory this fall must
rest on democratic incapaclty and
Numbering. This is a, preCarous toun-
dation on which to build, unworthy
of the party and its great traditions.
Now if ever parties must take high
ground, look to their wisest for guild
anCe and conscript their strongest
men to lead them. The times the is
sues, the crisis on the world call for
craftsmanship, and the party which
fails to choose a leader whose life and
