When you pay cash you are entitled to the savings in cash, and saving money is what we are all trying to do. When you say you CAN'T pay cash you ad mit you can't save any mon ey, and it's a fact you can not get ahead very far on the old out-of-date credit system. The people that have ready money to buy with, are the ones that have bought their goods for cash. The Dean Taton Co. ftfr WitMp Hulltiogger MONDAY, Al'ltlli 17, l"l. Teiephhone 688.

"During 50 years of ao-called re publican rule, our ships have been driven from the seas. We have not had sufficient ships to carry our own goods to market. I say this to our shame and disgrace.

Senator Weeks of Massachusetts, candidate for the republican nomina tion for the presidency, said in an ad dress at a luncheon in Chicago, on November 18, 1916: "There is a universal agreement hat some action should be taken which will build up our merchant ma rine engaged In foreign trade.

Federal Reserve Act. "Since the passage of the federal reserve act, there is no danger of an other panic in this country. Under the old system a few men, by interlocking directorates. absolutely controlled the entire money system of the United States Through their banks, they were directing the mone tary policies of this couhtry. Indeed, this money trust had become more powerful than the federal govern ment itself. "Even In a time of profound peace and prosperity, a handful of men could create a panic over night and spread ruin and disaster from Maine to California Between the rising and setting of the tan this could be done.

Under the wise and sane leadership of President Wilson, reforms have by sworn testimony brought out by the investigation of the money trust j by the democratic congress This tes i timony showed: "That is financial institutions in j . n York.

"This nation has never had a pres ident whose ideals have been higher, or who has been actuated by lo flier Impulses than Mr. Wilson. None has had a deeper conception of American nationalism a more conscientious re gard for the sacred rights of human ity. That has been his guiding star In the conduct of affairs at home and abroad. He has placed clearly before! the American people, as no president! since Lincoln has done, their duties; and responsibilities as citizens: and in hi.- dealings with the nations In volved In war. he has shown that Waal applies to the Individual should, j with equal force, apply to nations in j their dealings one with the other.

No one has been able to force him into a step which would violate the declared neu trality of this country He has been bulded by an Inborn instinct of justice and right, and this has been the secret of his dignified and firm courage. Defends American Itlghts. At times of Jingo counsel and bitter partisan attack, he has deliberately investigated, and when once his course was made clear, he has pursued it; and the dignity and honor of the na tion have been preserved without re sort to arms. He has succeeded by peaceful means ill maintaining Amer ican rights and privileges, and today in Europe he Is recognised as the foremost figure In the world. As a result of his firm stand, we are at peace with ourselves and the wot Id. while the continent of Europe Is torn asunder, and the carnage of of war is resulting In the greatest slaughter in the history of the human family. diplomacy and appeals to humanity are settling great International ques tions, and they will be the guide posts for the maddened monarchs In co very is antiseptic kills the cold germs raises the phlegm loosens the coupli and soothes the irritation.
