W. and bolshevik and socialist who attacks the Rockefeller or "captialistic system fails to know what he is doing" was emphasized .n a tpeech before 75 business men and members of the tate department at the Hotel Marion Saturday noon by Wil liam Howard Taft. In his talk mors than an hour ,the former president did not mention the league of nations but devoted his entire address to discussion of what he termed "a widespread at tack ad challenge to our governmental system." "When the I. W. W. or bolshevik at tacks the Rockefeller system," Mr. Taft declared, "he doe not know that we cannot have the homes of the workers without this system. Dollars and hapiness are not the same, as some who harangue this system claim, and anyone attacking this system and re jrards these two things as the same la Utterly wrong. "Some people believe that the man with wealth, and without happiness, regular guard talning and require ments, the infomation stated. .Floral Society Is I In Need Of Added i fi'J s t i r I T - ' r?

The former president dealt at length eulogizing the constitution of the United States, declaring that "our constitution, as construed by the u preme court of the United States, Is a wonderful instrument." "It is not the constitution," he said, "that Is the object of attack so much as it is the economic conditions that It supports, or that Is the capitalistic system. And as this system Is entirely necessary to the conduct of the na tion, and to our happiness, we might as well meet this attack and challenge it in the teeth, for It Is based on self ishness. "Out of trfe capitalistic system shower the things necessary to Ufa. Through sound spiritual aspirations they progress, and only through that source can progress be made. --. "The admirable trait of our govern ment is that It is adaptable to human nature,. And this Is being demonstrat es all of the time, "The accumulation and expenditure or wealth, as I understand has been termed the gospel of Mr. Rockefeller, is a Benefit to you and I. But if this accumulation and expenditure of wealth ever grows unbearable everv state in the union has the power thru . s legislature to regulate said accu- Imtluti.i.i ii, .. cAiitMnmure as it deems advisable." Mr. Taft gave a definition of Am ericanism that won lengthy applause jroin nis listeners: i ne essence and prlrclples of Americanism, as I see the.ii," he. as serted, "are Individual liberty; rule of the people and the responsibility or the Individual and the equality of opportunity that these things offer. And tinder this system, that our con stitution provides, we have thrived for 130 years, and have become the envy of all the world," ; Mr. Tnft will be heard Saturday evening at the armory when he will talk on "The League of Nations, lip to Date." .

( t We have been asked so many times to express our opinion in regard to prices of merchandise that we deem it our. duty to issue this statement, limited as is our information. 1 We might say that one guess is as good as 1 another where the sources of information are the same. Our opinion which seems to be shared by many large Eastern firms is that staple' cottons and domestics for every day use will maintain their present prices for some time and may even go slightly higher later in the season. The silk market has taken a sudden drop due largely to the labor troubles and unrest in Japan. There are many who predict that whatever fall in price there has been is only temporary and that the market will recover. However our advise would be to go slow. ' Buy only your immediate wants.
