LEAVING 1T

BY lodges and bitches. by labor or fraud we
gather up riches an elegant wad; the roll
showing has made life a grind; and then when
we're going we leave it behind. All, that is the
dickens the sting and the smart! 1t saddens
and sickens the miserly heart To leave all the
plumber for others to blow! What marvel, what
wonder wall in woe? The short-sghted
niggard saves till he must die, and l will be jig
gered if can see why amusement he lodges, all
fun he eschews and drearily lodges down there
by the news to harvest nickel his form he'll
exhaust; his life is pickle, fuke and frost.
In Golfers he's slowing all coin he can find, and
then when he's going he leaves it behind The
last of his journeys has borne him abroad and
gifted attorneys camp down on his wad. And
wastrels and spenders, his heirs and their kin,
for frivolous splendors dispose of his tin. So
it is with grieving the tightwads depart. their
large bundles leaving, the joy of each heart. But
the river no bundles known, miser
hearts culver at sight of bone Some silvery
pieces I've sailed away, to comfort my nieces
when I'm in the clay; but not in my keeping
such treasure you'll find, that might be weeping
to leave it behind.

COOL FURNISHINGS

IF gold were without value
there d be no thieves.
And similarly-if this store didn't
offer cool and comforting clothes
service to a sweltering Lakeland
would be without customer.
Suppose you wanted cool suit of -
underwear and we could only show
you red Aannel-or if you came in
for z or. straw and we were out of
everything but caps with ear tabs
Would we get the business?-you
know we wouldn't.
It's only because we are able to meet
your needs that you are giving us the
biggest hot weather trade we ever
enjoyed.
And it S only because you live in
Lakeland that we have brought this
fine cool stock to town.

present Scent fare which expires by limitation
on August l.
Secondly, the 7-cent fare is necessary in order
to pay interest on the bonds, failure to do which
means receivership to the company and possibly
a lucent fare and curtalcd service to you.
THE FACTS N H CASE r BRIEFLY THIS:
The bonds covering the Richmond railway property
amount to $~6,725,000. The annual interest payment of
so and 10 sinking fund charge amounts to 'S4O3. 500.
Under the present 6-cent fare we are earning only 1879,
or S96959, leaving a deficit on our bond interest Of
$316,563.
TO WHAT EXTENT WILL A FARE HELP?
We estimate it will yield about 100000. Of this, the
city gets its lo& of the gross, as provided in the fran
chises, leaving the company $36OyOOO. This, it will be
noted, covers the bond interest and allows a small margin
for shrinkage in traffic account of the higher fare.
H PRESENT 6-CENT FARE IS WHOLLY MADE
QUAIE. Out of every dollar the company collects today
It pays 81 cents for operating the cars and taxes alone.
Out OF the remaining 3 cents we get the 1870 interest
on our bonds, and we are obligated to pay Sc.
CAUSES OF THE HIGH PERATIN COSTS. One
reason IS we are giving more service and hauling fewer
passengers. 1854 MORE car-miles of service were
operated in the last eight months than in the compare
tive elght-months' period, whereas the lumber of pas
sengers hauled decreased 1929, 4O3 during the period.
Another reason is that the 2OO-odd iitnevs operatinp now
carry, according to actual count, about 10000 passengers
a day which would otherwise be carried on the street
cars.
blGEIIl IN ~ tN EARNINGS CANNOT CARRY
The impression seems to be general that
the company is making SO much profit on the light and
power business as to not make necessary any action for
rellet on the railways. THE FACT IS: For the past
tlscal year the earnings Of the light and power amounted
to LESS THAN 6 PER CENT on the value of the prop
erty used in the service of the public. This situation was
recognized by the State Corporation Commission only
recently when 1T granted some small measure of relief
through increased rates for wholesale power.
THAT'S THE WHOLE STORY. And the companv's
DOCKS ana statements are open at all times to inspection
and check by the proper authorities. We only ask for
justice and a fair chance to maintain the service as YOU
want it.

A Few Blunt Truths.

Senator Nelson earned the thanks
OF the nation when he got up in the
senate the other day and told the la
Dor union people a few blunt truths.
The probable decision of union men
on railroads and in mines to strike at
this time rather than to accept a very
modest reduction in wages that had
been ordered by a government BODY
after careful review of the case had
been made, can be construed only
that the unions consider themselves
bigger than the government and that
they are unwilling to join hands with
the rest of the nation in these hard
times of depression and take their
share of the losses that farmers and
business men all over the country are
taking in order to get the country
back on it's financial feet again. This
paper believes in organized labor and
will go as far as any one will 20 to
protect the rights of the organized
working man, but the facts are that
organized labor in this country has
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1921-10-13

Senator Mccormick of Illinois
thinks the United States must make
efficient and economic public admin
stration if it is to reduce it's burden
of taxation. Ending of the vast arma-
ments of the world is not alone the
problem, he declares, and he is right.
I'VE must seek to reduce public ex-
penditures in the city, in the state, in
the nation" he says, "and thus tighten
the burden Of the taxpayer and the
consumer: In Washington we have
made progress in the curtailment of
appropriations. The expenditures of
the national government have been re-
duced 40 per cent over period of two
years at the same time that local taxes
have increased a like amount"
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1921-10-13

permitted radical and unscrupulous
leaders to gain control Of their or
CARNATIONS and this leadership is not
only giving labor some mighty bad ad-
vice, but is persistently cultivating
among union men a point of view
which causes them to be unwilling to
cooperate with the rest of the people
in an unselfish way. If the unions
force strike at this time, paralyzing
what little business revival there is,
threatening with bankruptcy the farm
ers whose one hope of realizing on
their scanty crops this fall rests in
increasing the efficiency of transport
tation just as does also the welfare
of the business of the country gener-
ally, the people will rise up, as Sena-
tor Nelson said, and wipe the unions
off the face Of the earth. The worst
enemy to the cause of union labor
that has ever appeared in this coun-
try is the arrogant, selfish and mar
row-minded leadership which now has
the unions by the throat-Long Prai-
RE Leader.

The administration is letting it be
known, both here and abroad, that the
United States will not enter the con-
ference on the limitation Of arma-
ments with a despairing and senti-
ment-driven determination to get re-
suits no matter what the cost to
America. The administration holds,
and rightly, that the United States
will flourish no matter what occurs at
the conference. This country wants,
demands and hopes arms limitation
will come. We are not militarists and
the American instinct is to hate the
ways and works of war. While we are
willing to go long way to lessen ar
moments, we do not propose to go
alone.
