Arthur Brisbane, in Chicago Her.
ald-Examiner: Figures are interest
ing. When you say fifteen million
dollars rapidly it seems lot of mon
ey. Democrats say the republicans
wicked, wicked people, wanted to
Iaise campaign fund of fifteen mill
ions. Too bad, very sad. What have
democrats in Office to say to these
figures? Fifteen million dollars
would be fifteen cents for each in
babitant of the United States. Every
time you democrats in office allow
ed the sugar thieves to sell a pound
Of sugar for twenty-five cents he was
robbed of fifteen cents. Don't you
think it would pay him to contribute
fifteen cents once to get rid of the
kind of government that allows the
vilest kind Of profiteering to sur
vive the war, and steal fifteen cents
for every pound of sugar? When
the democrats get through saying
what they think about Mr.. Harding's s
campaign fund. interesting imag gin
ary thinking, perhaps they will tell
exactly why they have done nothing
about their friends, the profiteers
that began by stealing thousand
million dollars through the aircraft
board, and have kept it up ever
since in every direction?

MUSICAL COMEDY
WELL LIKED
''Oh Daddy" Pleases Dubuque AUDI
fence Immensely. Will Open
Grand in DecOrah Thursday
Sept. 80.
HAS SNAPPY AND
WELL TRAINED CHORUS
Gorgeous Scenery and Dazzling Cos
tunes are Features of the Show
Which is Drawing Big
Crowds Everywhere

"Oh Daddy" the musical Comedy
which will open the Grand opera
house in Decorah for the fall sea-
son on Thursday evening, Sept. 30,
is getting many fine press notices
from papers where the show has ap-
peared. 1t was at Dubuque recently
and the Times Journal has the fol-
lowing to say:
In describing a musical comedy, It
is generally customary to start out
by saying something nice about the
show itself, then add praise for the
principals, follow up with a few re-
marks relating to the chorus and
close with a mention of gorgeous
scenery and dazzling costumes"
But not so with "Oh Daddy"
two-act musical comedy which was
presented at the Majestic theatre
Friday and Saturday. First mention
il this particular instance is of the
chorus, not because the chorus
girls are any different than the
ordinary run of chorus girls but
partly for the snappy, well-trained
way in which they work and princi-
pally for the costumes they wear.
The stereoptyped term dazzling
costumes" fits the rOh Daddy"
chorus like kid glove and if there
wasn't another redeeming feature
in the show the freakish, even out
landish, but nevertheless beautiful
costumes, together with neat stage
settings, serve to make "Oh Daddy"
we'll worth the price of admission.
Plus Miss French
\ But there are other redeeming
features, chief among them the
singing of Belva June French,
very much blonde prima donna. who
warbles like bird and has a pre-
ference for ballads, although her
jazz numbers are faultless and put
over in the proper manner. Then
there are three Sarles in the show
Peggy and Kathryn, who are clever
dancers, and Billy, who essays a
juvenile role, that Of Lieut., Tom
Gray, U. S. A.
Most. If not all of the comedy, is
furnished by two veteran funmakers,
William Cotton, as a poppy old
doctor who lust loves the ladies' and
Martin Bowers, as an eccentric all
around servant and handy man.
More comedy is interjected by Jean
Darrow, whose greatest handicap is
her weight and who probably would
do better in blackface and as
coon shouter."
The show itself is lively, boasts of
tuneful music, and is good for more
than two hours of clean. wholesome
entertainment.

A woman, who registered in the

the dead of winter in the millinery

Why the Discrimination?


For several years previous to the
Wilson democratic administration it
was a popular policy among the law
makers of the country to pass laws
which prohibited the large CORPORA
tions and manufacturing establish
ments from discriminating among its
patrons. but since Wilson got into
power the big trusts have had easy
sailing Print paper is costing the
large daily papers of the country
four and five cents pound the past
six months, and probably less in
many instances. Country newspa-
pers Of Iowa have been paying
twelve cents pound, and even over
that amount in many instances. Why
the discrimination? Why is it al
lowed by the democratic administra-
ton.
John Rockefeller is not allowed to
make one price for oil in Hampton
and a five cent less price at some
other point in the state. The line
creameries are not allowed to pay
more for cream at one point in Iowa
than they pay at some other point.
Why should the print paper trust,
owned by the corporation of the east
be allowed TO hold up and rob the
country newspapers of the farming
communities of the United States?
asks the Hampton Chronicle.

But Georges does not stop there.
He can do ten miles cross-country
