On This
Occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

In 1899 the legislature passed a small
leans act and set a limit of interest
at per cent per month This act Is
now under fire and it is proposed in
bill introduced by Senator Lommen to
repeal the measure. The old law at
fecting loans of up to 5000 is to be
reinstated and new statute affecting
such loans is to be substituted. II
you will remember the time before
the small loans act became part
of the laws, the interest rates were
anything you could squeeze out of a
lucklesS borrower who fell into your
net. The interest rates and concealed
charges on small loans under the old
system sometimes ran as much as sc
cents per month. instead of per year
as at present. As we understood it
the act was passed to allow short time
borrowers to get a few dollars to tide

An Open Letter to
People of Ely

1.-THE PIT. A. Council would like to
make public statement regarding the
petition made to the city council last
week that carnivals be barred from
the city. We did not single out the
I. o. o. F. Boosters club in any way.
We know it to be a fact that the
show they sponsored last year and are
sponsoring this year is the cleanest of
its kind, and we know that they have
turned down offers from more un-
desirable shows which would have
Melted them bigger returns.
"Our letter read: Surely the groups
sponsoring the carnivals are made up
of individuals who recognize the evils
of the situation-parents who can
realize that they are sponsoring some
thing that may contribute to the de-
linquency of their own children We
are ready to stand by this statement,
which must certainly be recognized as
