Barber BIames Customer.

This stuff about the talkatve barber is ali wrong. it appears. A barber writes Seattle Post-Intelligencer pro testing against further misrepresen- tation. It is the customer who insists upon opening his heart, he writes, and the poor barber Is obliged to listen to all manner of confidential batter, home troubles, scandals, and occasionally the customer spills bum tip on the stock market and the barber goes broke. Ii Is this latter contingency that impeis him to protest.

The next time the senate met Gore re- sumed and remarked that when he was interrupted he was "more or less sur charged with the subject. The senate and the country will never know what an intellectual and rhetorical treat was denied them on account of that inter- ruption" And then he also remarked :: +As I was saving when the Ashurst rebellion broke out" From remarks that were made by the Oklahoma sen ator previous to the "Ashurst rebel lion. his speech upon the second .t- tempt lacked a great deal of the fire and criticism 1t would have contained if he had not been interrupted and had three days in which 10 cool of.

It was Vice President Marshall who once remarked to Republican sena- tor after the late Senator Newlands had made an assault upon the actions and policies of the Democratic party that he (MarshalD believed that "Newlands is the original fat boy who spilled the beans" Probably in these later days the vice president would be willing to transfer his remark to the blind senator from Oklahoma.

Food prices in Washington range from 10 to 70 per cent higher on all articles than in other cities of the United States In some instances t Is found that the chief staples cost nearly twice as much at fhe retail places in Washington as they do in some of the middle West ern cities Even after making allow anee for freight. the range of prices is altogether abnormal and shows that there is a concerted effort in the na- fional capital to profiteer in foods. II has reached q point where the com plaints are forcing official action and t Is altogether likely that in addi- ton 10 legislation which struck al the rent proflteer in the national capital, there will be some kind Of law passed to save the people who are compelled to live in Washington from paying this tribute to those who handle the food supply of the city.
 Investigation thus fur does not place the blame upon farmers, because the farmers in the vicinity of Washington do not produce enough food to affect the prices. The supply grown in the region surrounding Washington Is linn tied and in many cases absorbed by cities which can be easily reached by water - Baltimore, Philadelphia and New YorlA
