Why This solieitude ?

A writer in an advertising publica-
ton says that a large mail order
house is trying to find out why farm
products which net the man who
raises them little or no profit, are
sold to the ultimate consumer at
prices which are prohibitive.
He goes on to say that this inves-
tigation may disclose the fact that
the retail grocer, who in the small
town insists that he is the true friend
of the farmer and in the city poses
as the friend of the consumer, may
be shown up in rather unfavorable
light. But the (naming the mail
order house, will not lose any sleep
if that happens, he continues. The
retailer is no friend of theirs.
But did it ever occur to the mail
order house, whose defender is
bluntly honest about the mail order
house attitude towards the retailer,
that if it were not for the retailer,
there would likely not be any pros
porous communities from which the
man blbtt HbhhtS Npuid taNN tiASAA
pound of flesh?
People gather together in towns
and small cities such as ours, build
what we call homes and dwell to-
gether in peace and harmony. Each
man has his part in the community
life Some are retailers, some are
professional men, some till the soil
and others work at trades.
Certainly people would not estab-
fish homes, build streets and schools
houses and churches and the other
adjuncts Of community life, if there
were not some retailers to supply
their daily wants.
They could not depend on mail
order houses in far distant cities
that pose as friends of the people,
yet exact toll that yields immense
profits for their stockholders.
Retailers are as necessary in COM
munity life as any other body of
citizens and they know that the mail
order houses, which beguile their
customers with fine descriptions and

STRAIGHT TALKS
WITH AUNT EMMY
ON WHAT WOMEN SHOULD
KNOW ABOUT MONEY

"When you are as old as l am"
said Aunt Emmy to her niece Molly,

Aunt Emmy Every day better in
vestment advice is open to women.
Nowadays the banks make their de-
positors feel that they can go to them
with their financial problems. The
more women have to do with banks
the wiser they become about the dis
position of their money. In time
women will know enough to look
carefully into every investment be
fore they venture. and TO question
any promises to psy more than a rea-
sonable return. It takes an expert
enced financier to judge if Investment
is safe Women as rule do not un-
derstand the tragedies that Turk
around money. They love nice things
and naturally want them so they are
often led into foolish investments and
speculations because they seek to
crafty their wishes quickly. The so
called sure thing that pays enormous
dividends is usually sure loss.
Don't think Molly, that l mean
that women should not seek to get the
most out of their money. They
should. But the way to get the
most is to keep it safe They should
seek advice Properly and conserya.

real problem on his hands in deciding
what the Administrations attitude
should be toward the Japanese. If
he signs the exclusion bill passed by
Congress he may lose his Secretary
of State and if he vetoes the bill he
NAV lose the electoral vote of Cali
fornia and number of other
western states. Even if the Pre-
sident should veto the ill Congress

talking about it, are all riled up on
the question of oriental immigration.
AS far as any serious consequences
are concerned as the result Of bar
ring the japanese, no one familiar
with the situation expects anything
more alarming than the loss of one
or two diplomatic heads.
HIRAM JOHNSON is clear off the
reservation. Although he has
abandoned all hope of getting the
Republican nomination, he is still
driving away at Coolidge and there is
no limit to his assaults. The Cali
fornia Senator still calls himself a
Republican, but it will be hard for
him to find place in the party
again after the storm and stress of
the presidential campaign has passed
into history.
TALK, HARDLY rising above the
level of murmurs, is heard now and
then concerning a possible formid-
able third-party movement, having
its inception in the agricultural
states of the middle west, but the
long and serious illness of Senator
LaFollette makes it difficult for the
movement to gain much Roadway.
And if La Toilette should regain his
health before the middle of the
summer, not even he would attempt
to lead a third party into action
unless he was more than reasonably
sure of success.

misleading statements regarding ar
ticles, are no friends of theirs; Meth
er are they friends of the people to
whom they sell their goods.
The retailer is accountable to the
people who trade with him. He is at
the same stand every day and if his
customers feel that they have not
had fair treatment as to price or
quality, they know where to make
complaint. He is interested in
everything that is for the best in
terests of the community He
pays taxes and helps support the
churches, schools, public improve
ments and every other worthwhile
enterprise.
The mail order house, which has
taken such a concern in the welfare
of the farmer, has no interest in this
community or any other, aside from
how much revenue it will produce.
The mail order house does not pay a
cent towards educating our children,
building our streets or public build
ings; in fact, contributes nothing to
the community.
They take money from the COM
munity and add nothing in return.
Their solicitude for the farmer is

WASHINGTON, D. C., June T. When the Harding administration took office in 1921 prohibition agents were engaged in cleaning up the liquor situation in Washington, the senate Daugherty committee was told today, but thirty-four persons and places pur- veying intoxicants all escaped prose cution

CHICAGO SEWERS ARE
 FLOODED BY BEER

CHICAGO, June 7-Geysers of real beer, squirting five feet into the air for more than an hour last night and flooding the sewers in the vicinity of the Manhattan brewery, furnished the basis for police investigation today that advance warning had been given of contemplated raid. More than one hundred thousand gallons of beer was drained from brewery vats. An alysis showed high alcoholic content, officers said.
 Concerted drive by police and fed eral agents to close every brewery in northern Illinois which is manufactur- ing beer of illegal alcoholic content has resulted in prices having jumped from $45 and $50 a barrel to S65 and up to S100, police say. It is also re- ported that defense fund of $150,0O0 was being raised for those arrested.

 When first introduced in the Sen ate the bill was referred to Senator Wesley Jones of Washington, who has had considerable experience in fisher ies legislation. It was reported out April 2S with the destructive amend ment eliminated with some modified tion in the section providing a week ly closed season in Bristol Bay.
 The presentation of the bill in the senate was made the occasion for bitter attack by the Hearst publlca- tions, which quoted extensively from the statements from Delegate Dan Sutherland, and Senator King of Utah. These articles contained an amazing mass of misrepresentations, conceived with the idea of involving Secretary Hoover in a fisheries scandal, provok- ing several clear-cut and forceful re- plies from him.
 President Coolidge has taken an ac- tive interest in the bill and urged It's prompt passage.

Gateway Be Enlarged
 Within Short Time

Owing to greatly increased foreign advertising space and also an increase in local advertising due to many new business houses starting up in Sew ard, The Gateway will be enlarged as soon as the chases can arrive from the states to an eight page five-column paper giving our readers about double the reading matter now given.
 During the past months the daily has been compelled to turn down ad- vertising and throw it to the Saturday paper often at loss ,on account Of lack If space. The change will be ben efjcial to advertisers in that 1t will make for better position for the ads.
 This size paper will continue thru the summer months and probably thru the winter if advertising continues as it is That Seward is growing is evi- denced by the increasd circulation of the Gateway winch has jumped up sev eral hundred to the westward and probably fifty in the town since the be- ginning of the year.
 The management has no desire as yet to make money with the paper, but rather prefers to build up a large plant capable of handling the larger kinds of jobs now going out of the territory, or badly botched by being run on inferior machinery. The Gate way plant at the present time is one of the best, if not the best in the Ter ritory, and better than anything found Outside in towns of less than twenty thousand population. During the past year about $8,OOO new machinery has been installed. The run of work secur- ed from Outside the town has placed many hundreds of dollars in Seward, and the popularity of our work and our prices are steadily increasing our output.
 The enlargement of the Gateway will giv us opportunity to elaborate on stories and news service now held down to skeleton form, and uill also give us room fo1 better display of ad- vertising.
 We thank you for your patronage and believe that you will not be dis appointed in the new and larger Gate way.
