FORD DOES REAL SERVICE

Henry Ford has made a fatal wound in the
dragon Of high prices by reducing the prices
of automobiles IA to 81 per cent to pre-war
prices. In making this cut Mr.. Ford said:
The sooner we get business of the country
back to a pre-war condition, progress, pros
perity and contentment will occupy the atten-
ton Of the people,, sss
The cut in prices has been made without re-
ducing wages, and as q move to break way
from the system of profiteering, which is delay
ing business, and is a direct cause Of the clos
ing or slowing down of many industries
The people are tired of graft and will not
pay the high prices, and the quicker manufac-
turers and dealers manifest an inclination to
pocket a loss as cheerfully as they did profits,
at the beginning of the war, the quicker butsi-
ness will get upon a basis of prosperity, and
prosperity cannot come to the country until
the people have a reasonable assurance of q
deal. Hold-ups will no longer answer
in the commercial or industrial business of the

A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER

"A local newspaper is absolutely necessary to
any community. It is the home paper that
Keeps the people of the community in touch
with each other by giving them all the news Of
their own ~neighborhood and county. For that
alone they are of value and worth far more
than the small subscription price. They keen:
the local pride and progressive spirit aroused
and in various ways are worth far more to a
community than a community ever spends on
tnem. Inc daily paper with its large news
service and quicker facilities may, in some in
stances over-shadow the weekly, but the weekly
nome paper fills a place in the hearts of the
people that a daily cannot fill. 1t comes to your
nome as an old and tried friend while the dailv
enters as a stranger.

THOSE SUGAR PRoFITEERs

Notwlthstanding the efforts of Boston deal
ers TO dispose Of sugar stocks at present prices,
oy the employment Of loud criers to.uree the
people to buy sugar, the dear people do not
take the hint. They are waiting for still lower
prlces' and if they wait yet a little while thew
viii undoubtedly profit thereby. The world
Is producing more sugar than ever before. HIGH
prices have caused planters to extend their
acreage and profiteers to hoard products. The
combination is working fine just at present, and
tne result will necessarily be plenty of sugar
at moderate prices. The profiteers may shout
from the house-tops and from the street cor
ners' but the people are satisfied to await dew
elopments.

lhnty Thousand dollars a day is what Will
nam Lemke, specially appointed attorney gem

ers IN this. state as a result of his fight against
freight rates made discriminatory against th;s

in the aggregate a big saving. Yet i. y. As
Will dlsdaln to give credit to the man that
actually saves the public from being compelled
TO pay the increased freight rates asked-Its

passed. Who will pay increase if the railroads
