This seems to be an inconsistent
world. with Uncle Sam cutting wages and
making NRA folks raise them: with the
government AAA accused along with the
steel industry with price-fixing; with
popular demands crying out against fixed
and regulated prices in shops and mar
kets. Inconsistency seems to have lost con-
nections with It's Jewels in this roaring
year of 1884.

The Files Of The Citizen

Local politics was given impe-
tus yesterday by the announce
ment of Clements Jaycocks who
has entered the race for sheriff,
and the question most frequently
asked was from whom will he draw
the most votes. It was admitted
that nobody could answer that
question with any degree of ac-
curacy or surety but it is the con-
sensus of opinion he will get votes
from adherents of both of the
other candidates, but how many
from each it will be impossible to
conjecture.
