Editor, Note Yes, Mr..
Starch's blood must have been
boiling after reading the article
HE Didn't Mention It," written
by Editor Bjornson of Minneota
and published in the American
Of March l7th-and his blood
was evidently still boiling when
he wrote the above lines 1t is
a bad time to write or say any
thing when mans blood is boil

marks will necessarily have to be
taken lightly.
It is usually expected that the
man who pens an article is the

hardly TO be expected that Mr.
BlornSon will answer a piece Of
wrath like that given out by Mr.
Starch for if he did we would
feel sorry for one Starch.

we can inform Mr.. Starch that

Thrift and Prosperity!
Cincinnati Enquirer.D !


 Disagreement of doctors has always been held to be fatal to the patient although there is no proof Of this ancient q assertion Mention of it is made merely to introduce the pending difference between tWo national associations which have headduart CTS in New York; one devoted to the propagation of thrift and the other to the spread of prosperity
 Those who desire that all should be prosperous assert sorrowfuly that the thrift doctrine which they assert encourages boarding, is seriously ob- Jeetionable at time when the natural circulation of dollar is sadly needed to keep men working Hence they have dispatched a letter to the rival organization announcing their fiat opposition to any campaign which will tend to stimulate stineiness and undue savings during the malefcent period
 They insist that Roosevelts definition of thrift should be preached: Common applied TO spend ing. It is they say, common sense to buy now when goods are plentiful and the savings banks are oulslng with the greatest deposits they have ever known With millions of workers. lacking em- poyment the small of the country have locked up $4,l6O,OOO GOO during the last twelve months an Increase Of 40 per cent. This is discordanee they assert ., g
 The thrift association, just. about to Iaunch its nation wide plea for savings more than ever argues hat by supplying the banks with capital bushes; will be benefited through low-priced money and in consequence the advent of prosperity will be hast ahed Evidently the quarrel attaining this result Is of method
 There should be timOrOus thoughts on this account. Accepting the conditions recited by both tides, it will not be very long before an r9mutable ordinance will make its power felt and bring the hing desired This is the unchangeable unameud- lble, unrepealabe law of supply and demand the irresistible force which brings together the man and he job, the goods and the dollar And its operations already discernible

Improving His Grammar

There is a twelve year-old optimist in the Jewish Hospital in Cincinnati Ohio. His name is Alex Fall, and his home is Nashville, Tenn. He was injured in 9 football game last fall and his leg was amputate1 above the knee a few weeks ago In spite of diversity, however, ne is the most cheerful little chap in the United States, and he sees the bright side of life He is confined to his bed, but he draws funny car toons and thinks up funny things to tell his friends. He told Luke a story the other day about a tough boy in school who was always be ing punished by his teacher for al ways using atrocious grammar. One afternoon he used the term: q have wrote instead of saying: "1 haze written" and the teacher made him stay in after school and told him tG write: q have written 100 times to cure him of saying: 'I have wrote. , The teacher was called to the jhone and when she returhed to the room the boy was gone, but she found this note on his desk:

MIR. BRYAN AND RULE BY THE PEOPLE

When Ntr Bryan quits talking in favor of the inclusion of his moral code in the Constitution, asks for the repeal of National prohibition, urges Con gress to turn all the public lands and natural re- sources over to the States within whose borders they le we shall believe he is sincere when he discusses the restoration of rule by the people," The only danger to rule by the people in the United States are the standardization processes that are changing the country from a democratic republic to a bureaucracy. But that is not the danger that MT. Bryan is thinking about for he has been one of the strongest advocates of standardization measures in the country.
