Thle recent wvidely heralded "crash"
in the prices of merchandise may
make possible the purchase of a few
art icles at cheaper prices for a short
period of time but little hope for
permanent lower prices can be real
ize'd itil production Catches ip with
Consluilptiol and people have to be
Fold rather than accommodated with
l'erllaldise. Either production mut1;t
be iicreastd or Consumption de
creased.
Ex-Senator Bienet and IEx-Senator
Pollock are stirring themselves u1p
over the woman suffrage issue out of
all proportion to either on1e's chalices
to beat Ed. Smith. inctm1lbert, for re
election to ihe t'nited States Senate.
When Senator E1lison Duitant Smith
gets tip to tell the farimers about cof
ton, thle woman suffrage issue and tli
two young aspirants for senatorial
honors will be swelit before the flood
of oratory which will follow. Cotton
is still a factor in politics as well as
in textile mantufacttre and the senior
senator knows how to handle it.
Trihe recent instance in this city of
the arrest of a man piosing as a
charitable worker and soliciting funds
for a rescue home brintgs tip the ques
tion whether or not indiscriminate
soliciting and begging should be a
lowed on the streets of aturens. It
is iot allowed ill some places and it Is
reasonable to suppose, especiall y
since this recent incident, th'at the
pitblic is often taken advantage of by
traveling fakers. Maly solicitors, no
doubt, are worthly of generotis sup
port, but very often money is contrib
uiteld which never is used for honest
PIIrposes and at other times is very
inefficiently expon ded. The k'ity Coiln
eil might. provide for a committee,
either from its membership or from
among repitable citizens of the town,
Wil-ich could pass on the worthiness
of various causes presen ted on the
streets, giving a e1 bill of health
to tile worthy catuses anid telling the
others to pass on.
