The shoemakers are not disposed

the present high prices of shoes. In
deed, they openly state that the
prices are going on up. 1t would
seem to the person who has to buy
two or three pairs of shoes a year
that the price had now about reach

which recently held a meeting in

In letter addressed to the Demo.
Gratis of Kentucky Ronald C. Oldham
of Winchester, one of the candidates
for the Democratic nomination fol
Lieutenant Governor in the recent
State primary, does not concede vic
tory to w. H. Shanks, of Stanford,
whose name will go on the ballots as
Democratic nominee for Lieuteant

ION the whole case, after retro
spective consideration of the returns
before me, win or lose, see nothing
to my discredit and am pleased and
satisfied. / expect to return home

taking the blame. They denOunce
the present price of shoes as ''unwar-
ranted." The prices of leather and
labor are, in their official statement
on the subject, excessive, far be-
yond any past experience" The ex-
port trade and the country's prosper
ity are likewise blamed. %,
What the makers are afraid Of
and they have good reason to be
is a panicky condition of the market.
They advise people not to buy any
more shoes than they have to. They
advise dealers to cut down their
stocks to the minimum. The price is
high enough as it is, but there is no
telling where it will go if people lose
faith in the trade and begin to buy
against an imaginary shoe famine.
There is plenty of raw material, but
it costs more; and there is plenty of
labor, but, as the recent successful
strikes among shoe workers indicate,
it also costs more.

You've all noticed it. 1t falls from

time immemorial baby lips have lisp

sounds, too, but in some instances it
is almost ludicrous. When the user
of the infantile epithet is grazing

"silver threads" are pretty evenly
dispersed upon the poll" father"
seems so much more appropriate,
doesn't it? But when one hears dad

respectful.
We've all noticed how "wonderful'

kinds of excellence in all sorts and
conditions of people and things, but
hasn't it been worn almost thread
bare? "Good-looking" is another
word that is running neck and neck
with wonderful" Just now it is the
very top of the mode. One hears of

the "saleslady" who is displaying
the costumes uses this word ad fini-
tum.
In shop the other day a young
woman was heard going into rapt-
ures over a line of stationery which

Mr.. BLANT0N LECTURED
FOR DELAYING As BILLS
Scored by Mr.. Dewalt In House for
INDUCING in Three-Hour
Filibuster..

After Representative Blanton of
Texas had by objection prevented tho
consideration of forty-si bills on the
private calendar under unanimous
consent yesterday Representative De-
walt of Pennsylvania boiled over
and gave a vigorous lecture on vast
ing the time of the House and work.
ing an injustice to those for whose
benefit the bills were introduced.
Representative Dewalt cited some Of
the measures thus blocked by Mr.
Blanton during a three-hour one-man
filibuster. -. -
To pay $541.12 to a dependent parent
of a civil employee killed by an acci-
dent in the Philadelphia navy yard.
To appoint Admiral William S. Ben
son and Rear Admiral William S. Sims
as permanent admirals in the Navy.
For removal of the remains Of an
infant child from temporary burial
place in the District
Representative Dewalt recalled that
when Mr.. Blanton came first to Con-
gross it was with the declaration that
he would make the House work from
am. until pm. and said that he
has watched him impeding the bust
ness of the legislative body by re-
peatedly calling for roll call, thus
wasting much of the time of the
House.
