MIR. Ziegler Returns

Albert Ziegler returned We'd
nesday from his eastern business
trip, where he journeyed three
weeks ago to make purchases for
his spring and summer trade.
Mr.. ziegler appeared on the
markets early, therefore, he
bought at prices that will enable
him to sell at prices that will be
very reasonable taking into con-
sideration the high prices pre-
vailing over the country. In
connection we wish to say that
an investigation will prove that
our business houses are under
selling most of the business
houses of the east and this is
accomplished by getting in on
the buying game early. Mr..
Ziegler joined Mrs. Ziegler al
Chicago, where he stopped over
on his return from New York.
She had been i'll at the home OF
her daughter, Mrs. Gutnecht,
but is much improved and will be
home in about one week.

Washington, Feb. 25. In NAM
ing Bainhridge Colby for secre.
tary of state to succeed Robert

Washington an even greater sur
prise than when he named John
Barton Payne of Illinois to sue
ceed Franklin X. Lane as sec
retary of the interior. Mr.
Colby's name had not even been
mentioned among the probabili-
ties.
Republican leaders in congress
see some cause for political con-
