WHAT "cHEAPNEsS" MEANS
For the Laborer to do His Best, He
Must Have Good PAY.

For the laborer to do His Best, He
Must Have Good Pay.
"a cheap coat makes cheap man, -
said President Harrison many years
ago, when he stated great truth
which the world needs to learn.
Cheap labor cheapens the moral,
spiritual and physical powers of the
underpaid man or woman, and IN the
end is the costliest labor. A cheap coat
breeds ill-will and lessons a mans self
respect; a good garment helps the in
ward as well as the outward man.
|, Cheapness finds it's most fertile field
! n India, where wages run from three
/ to fifteen cents a day and where in
| describable poverty and suffering are
everywhere in evidence; In China,
Nnere poverty is so great that mil
| lions starve; in Africa and in Japan.
But America has blessed the world by
high wages, for by introducing high
wage schedules here it has gradually
lifted up wages throughout the world.
L
shriveled, money-mad souls or others,
falsely trained in economics, who be-
lieve in low wages, in poverty for the
farmer and the laborer, and in the
cheap coat and the cheap man. They
cannot comprehend that "cheapness'
is a cheapness of soul In themselves,
and they measure humanity only by
what they can make their dollar buy Of
other peoples labor and products.
High wages, full salaries. high prices
for farm products are thousand times
better than low wages. low salaries and
low prices for farm products.
Some bankers and some business
men view things from a different
standpoint They measure everything
by the dollar mark, and that is why
they praise the breakdown of prices.
The only true and honest way is to
measure by manhood and the influence
of high prices on the uplifting Of man
hood and womanhood, the betterment
of homes, improved school facilities
and enlarged comforts for women and
children. We have the highest testi-
mony that Heaven can give that the
laborer is worthy Of his hire, but in
these days. as in the past, the power OF
the old fetish Of "cheapncss' is wor-
SHIPPED and is being invoked to break
down the prices Of the farmers pro-
ducts and thus the wages Of the labor
ing man. The souls Of all men ought
to be open to the light of Divine truth
and to the teachings of history that a
cheap coat makes a cheap man, that
low wages mean poverty and anarch-
ism, that low prices Of farm products
mean an ultimate famine in them, and
that cheapness is one of the Devils
most efficient tools for working dam
nation. to soul and body. But many
having eyes. prefer not to see this
TRUTH Manufacturers Record.

HICCOUGH EPIDEMIC
Many Suffer In Budapest and Physi-
clans Unable to Stop Them. =

An epidemic of hiccoughs with
which the physicians ore unable to
cope has caused much alarm among
the Budapest population, says a Buda-
pest dispatch. The patients are un-
able to sleep or eat and some of them
have remained in the grip Of the NAL
ady for two or three weeks, until the:
affection had run it's course. AS yet
there have been no fatal results.
Professor Benedict, of the local
medical faculty, has sounded an
alarmist note in connection with the
epidemic. .
81 am afraid" he said. that this
hiccoughing is forerunner Of the I'M
flucnza. but it is possible we should
be visited by an even more terrible
plague" .i4y;.

Considered Monday by

Precinct registration places for the

fixed by the city council at a speciat
meeting which President Russell Will
son will call for Monday evening.
Under the registration law the council
must fix the places not later than fifteen

City Clerk George 0. Hutsell is anxious
that the council appoint registration IN

have his nominations in the hands Of
the council by that time. The council
names inspectors and the city clerk the
clerks for city registration boards Mr.
Hutsell desires all appointments be made
at least fifteen days before the registra
ton day although the law permits d
longer time for choosing same.
The annual city budget, and appro-
priation tax levy ordinances viii be in
rroduced at the special meeting. The
council must permit ten days TO elapse
between Introduction and adoption Of
the ordinances during which times citi-
zens have an opportunity to express their
views upon the taxation plans for 1922.
The cali for the special meeting also is
expected to include provision for the in

nance backed by the board Of public

times, viii again extend its hospitality to
the survivors of the armies of the North

mittee in charge of the arrangements.
The necessity of providing comfortable
rooms at reasonable prices for the old
soldiers and for their wives, as we'll as
for members of the allied organizations

in conjunction with the q. A. r. gives
to the people of the city another OPP

was hoped the carriers would show net
earnings Of ct least half a billion dollars
for this year.
Further drastic reductions in Operat-

fore the railroads can make any general
reduction in rates. he said.
"As the result Of the war and the
period of Federal control the earning
power OF the American railways was
practically destroyed" CuyleF declared
met earnings declined from approx

development Of American railroads
has been at a standstill for at least five
years. Naturally, no industry can grow
when II cannot surely pay interest or
dividends 10 those who invest their money
in it.
My belief. is that the railroads now
have turned the corner. It is hoped they
viii in the aggregate make net earnings
Of at least $500. o00O0O for the year OF

Cuyler explained that such an income
would be less than per cent return

Bickering.

Letter writing again is being INDUCED
in by the Marion County commission
ers and Federal authorities regarding the
proposed paying Of more than 60 cents

Under the ARA n cement which has been
in effect since Federal prisoners have
been held at the Jail pending trial and
the transfer to Federal prison. the
county actually has not received cent,
according to County Auditor Leo 4.
Fesler. because the 60 cents paid by the
Government goes directly to the sheriff
for the prisoners board
The commissioners have felt the Govern
ment should bear its part Of the over
head expenses at the jail In addition to
paying the 60 censt a day for each pris-
oner's meals
Officials at Washington, recently sent
a Federal agent to the Jail to make recon-
mendations and Auditor Fesler expressed
surprise when he received a letter to the
edact the commissioners some time ago
had agreed to continue the 60 cents
