Tuesday night the following officers
we're elected to serve under Chief
Upton on the police force the com

protection during the crime wave
that is sweeping over the country it

Officer Stockdale is at present

Labor Keeping Up Prices!

The much heralded looming down Of prices is
in a sense reality but the person expecting to buy
any manufactured article at pre-war prices is DOOM
ed to disappointment. Practically every retail mer-
chant in this city and throughout the country is SELL
ing his wares as cheaply possible and in many
cases at Actual Cost, but goods cannot be sold at
former low prices until the cost of labor is mate
rally reduced and even then it will be six months
or year before the consuming public will be eff
fected to any material degree.
In every manufactured article the main cost is
not the product, but the price of the labor re-
qured that makes the selling price, and until this
condition is radically changed from that of the pres
ent prices are bound to remain at about the same
figure as they are today.
We are all advocates of Give and let live" and
to maintain the prosperity enjoyed in the past few
years is necessary that all continue to buy but
buy cautiously and when there is any decline, rest
assured merchants will only be too glad to give
you the benefit of at the earliest possible mo-
ment. The depression the country is bound to
be a temporary one and continuance of prosperity
is assured, unless we choose to make it otherwise.
LET'S DO OUR PART TO INSURE PROS
PERITY.

ly be attempted, however desirable
and profitable and justifiable the
outcome might be.
In the Virginia and North Caro-
lima markets selling is progressing
quite satisfactorily to the buyers,
and the growers are taking their
medicine. Trade journals report like
this: "All good grades are in active
demand with prices stronger than
they have been, some lots going as
high as $25, making on the whole
a pretty fair average"
But they also go to to say: moth
ing is seen in the outlook to cause
any Improvement in prices in the
near future" Those words speak a
volume. In another report the fol-
lowing: wrappers and fine cutting
leaf are in strong demand and prices
on these grades show decided up
ward tendency"
The best grades, those of high
quality Of any character of tobacco,
will always be in demand at good
prices. 1t is the average that counts
in all crop sales.
