CALIFORNIA CUTS IN
POTATO BUSINESS
With California freely offering, its
river potatoes at 60c to 65c per cental
f. o. b. shipping points, there is little
business available for the local stock
as yet.
While some of the local offerings
show matured quality, the bulk of the
supplies are still too green and the
skins slip too much for long distance
shipping. .
In a jobbing way there is only a
nominal demand for potatoes. Prices,
are low but this is not what is Inter
fering with the demand; Nearby pro
ducers continue to peddle their sup
plies and as this is the sole business
in the market at. the present time, it
takes everything away from the
wholesalers.
Owing to the size of the crop this
season an effort will soon be made by
the Produce Merchants' association to
secure a cut in freight rates to east
ern points.
The recent government report gave
the potato crop of the United States
a condition of 87.8 per cent compar
ed with 62.3 per cent a year ago and
a 10 years' average of 84.8 per cent.
CHIC SIMPLICITY
A novel design for an afternoon
gown which may be developed in silk,
voile or even tub material. The blouse
itself is the conventional peasant
fashion relieved by bands of lace and
embroidery, but the distinctive touch
is contributed by the two stole-like
tabs of lace-and the material which
fall from the neck to below the bust
line. A similar piece depends from
the short sleeve, falling over the un
dercuff of tucked batiste. The skirt

MARSHALL SAYS HE
IS NEAR SOCIALIST
(Continued from page 1)
party. Of the latter he said in part:
"Its creator and nominee for Presi
dent occupied that office for about
seven and a half years, but. during
that time he could not be persuaded
to say a single word in favor of lift
ing from the people the" burden im
posed by extortion of tariff rates.
True, he admits in his confession of
faith that certain interests have been
improperly favored by over-protection,
declares himself in favor of 'disrupt
ing the old crooked, log-rolling meth
od of tariff-making,' and advocates a
tariff commission wholly different
from the present unsatisfactory tariff
board.' It is impossible to rise from
a careful reading of his tariff discus
sion without being convinced that he
is a standpatter as was he was when
President.
"Certainlyonly a very stupid man
would expect him to curb the trusts.
Seven-eighths of all the combinations
in existence when he went out of of
fice were created while he was Presi
dent." Governor Marshall attacked the Re
publican party on the ground that it
had fostered special privilege to the
point of making men everywhere So
cialistic in theory if not in conduct.
He said:
"It is idle for a thoughtful man in
America, whether millionaire or pau
per, to longer play the ostrich. Safe
ty does not consist in holding one's
head in the sands of either sentiment
or hope. It is foolish for the vastly
rich to keep on insisting that more
and more shall be added to their rich
es through a specious system of spe
cial legislation ostensibly enacted to
run the Government, in reality enact
ed to loot the people.
"It is worse than ignorance for them
to smi-e at the large body of intelli
gent Americans who regard themsel
ves as fortunate if the debit and cred
it accounts of life balance at the end
of the year, and to assume that the
mighty many, who are becoming con
vinced that that social system which
we call 'democracy' is but a glittering
generality, will long endure the indus
trial slavery being produced.
"Whether voting the ticket or not,
men everywhere, looking upon the aw
ful injustice of this economic system,
are becoming socialises in theory if
not in conduct.
"And shall any fair-minded man say
that if it redounds to the interests of
the people of this country that 100
men shall control its business to the
good of everyone, there is anything
fallacious in the theory that govern
ment, instead of transferring business
to a favored few for the benefit of all,,
should itself discharge that business
for the benefit of all?
"I do not hesitate to say that if it
be impossible to restore this Repub
lic to its ancient ideals, which I do
not believe, and I must make the ul
timate choice between the paternal
ism of the few and the socialism of
the many, count me and my house
with the throbbing heart of human
ity. "The discontent in Republican
ranks is democratic discontent. How
much of it has reached the point
where, wearied with bad workings of
a good system, it is willing to topple
that system over and try something
new. I cannot prophesy."
