"Voting on Ago' Means
Being Between 21 and 22
A dispute over the meaning of
"votlns on age" Is presented by Mr.
Eunice 0. Rurr, 3.14 Jackson utrcct,
llarrlman, Pn,
Two sides have been taken. She
wrltex :
1. That a person Is voting on age
when he votes a month before he is
twenty-one years old.
'J. That a person Is voting on nga
wheu he U between the nges of
twenty-one and twenty-two years,
and that no one can vote until hN
twentj -first birthday.
The first proposition ! incorrect;
the second Is correct. The reason why
the first proposition !s incorrect la
that a person must be twenty-onu
year old on or by election day or
lie cannot vote nt all.
To "vote on age" the person must
be over twenty -one yenra and not
twenty-two on election day. A per
son "voting ou age" need not pay a
poll tax.

are just beginning to learn that the

stood in the way of purchasing from

Monstrosity of Waste
"In good sense, nnd In good con
science, it has been necessary for all
of us to recognize that we have im-u
dragged toward chaos. A nation which
prides Itself upon its business sense has
ben forced to see Its government, which
hndlv needed efficiency and reorganiza
tion." twisted Into a monstrosity ol
waste and slipshoddiness. And thnt ad
ministration, almost innocent, we may
say, of business principle, has not stop
ped there, but has gone afield to med
dle abroad In such a way as to crcun
enmity, where its meddling hns been
uninvited, nnd to create dissension at
home among our population of foreign
blood.
"Rut thnt is not all an administra
tion which could not attend to Its -wu
business well, with new economic
theories, with experiments, with ac
tivities in which it was never lntcnueu
government should participate, and
with laws and eexeutlve orders which
failed to curb profiteering or contribute
to our high htnndnrd of American busi
ness, has reached out Its hinderiuf,
hands in meuncp to American business
and American prosperity.
"I loot: forward to an America
where all Americans will put their
shoulders to the wheel nnd in a united

Sees Easy Victory
Continued from TAtse One
foreign policy of the Wllaon adminis
tration. The league members tn North Dakota,
like the league members In Minnesota,
are expected to vote for Senator Hard
ing. There Is no doubt about his car
rying tho state and of the re-election
of Governor Frazler, the leaguo can
didate for governor.
In South Dakota tho situation Is
different. The primary laws' there
.have forced the Nonpartisan League out
Into tho open ns n separate pnrtv. The
league membera cah no longer fight In
the Republican prlmArles for the con
trol of the Republican party. The
result In that the league nf South Da
kota Is supporting Christiansen, the
Farmer-Labor candidate, for President.
Unlike the lengue In other states It
sent a delegation to the third partv
convention In Chicago nnd affiliated
with the movement started there.
The league In South Dakota in not
as strong ns It Is In North Dakota and
Minnesota. It Is fl!d to have about
25,000 members': allowing for sons,
daughters and wives of members, per
haps this means fJO.000 votes. It Is
thought that fl large proportion nf these
votes were formerly Republican. If
they can be all delivered to the Chris
Hansen ticket. South Dakota will prob
ably he a close state both on the na
tional ticket nnd on the United States
senatorshln. Some Republicans from
South Dakota believe that thn Demo
crats have a chance to carry South Da
kota, but It will probably be difficult
for the league to throw itp full strength
In South Dakotn to Christiansen.
KEEP EYE ON BUTCHERS
Housewives Warned Against Tricks
of Unscrupulous Ones
Housewives are being asked by the
county commissioners' Bureau of
Weights and Measures to check up care
fully on the prices their butchers charge
for meat.
It is explained many butchers pretend
to sell meat at a reduction, then throw
It on the scales, glance nt the weight and
exaggerate it to make up for the ad
vertised reduction.
The way to do, It Is suggested, is for
the purchaser to ask exactly what the
meat weights, then calculate just what
it should cost. ,
The defective scale and short weight
basket have almost been eliminated, it
is pointed out. but the new scheme nulli
fies efforts to give the customers a squnre
deal and cut the cost of living.
According to the report for the first
six months of the year. 48,50:1 scales

SOME BENEFIT. TO PUBLIC
There has been no big drop In the
cost of the necessities of life as yet,
although In some lines of business it Is
being, looked for. Merchants general y
declared today that prices wilt remain
stationary nt least until the nrst of the
icar In most llbes, but others admitted
that the determination of the public to
buv only what Is absolutely necessary,
and that nt the lowest possible price, is
having Its effect.
So far the reductions have been
noticed In wholesale markets only. If
the public cftntlnues an orgy of spend
ing, It Is shbwn, the retailers will hot
be under necessity of lowering their
prices, nnd they will absorb the benefit
of lowered wholesale prices, a well as
the extra charge they put on their goodn
ot retail. If. however, say the mer
chants, the public sticks to ltd present
program, competition will Inevitably
forco prices down.
Cotton yftt'n prices are low as cam
pared with that of last year, the large
mills nnnounclng substantial reductions
In cottons, glrtghnms and flannels.
Hosiery nnd underwear arc being of'
fcred retail stores at great reductions
also, It Is snld. and this is exci!(l
soon to be reflected in lower retail
prices.
Shoo prices are somewhat lower than
they were a' year ago, but the dealers
maintain there can be no decided drop
for some time to come. The retallera
aro blamed for present high prices by
the tanners, who declare they aro let
tint? their hides irn nt verv low figures.
It 1m not expected. that clothing will
be much lower until next spring, by
which time, the clothing dealers say,
nresent stocks, bought nt very high
prices, will have been sold. Then the
henefit of the lower nrlces will be passed
along In the new spring goods unle
tno public refuses to buy tne nign-pricea
stuff in the meantime nud demands lm-
rnedlnte results.
Members of tho National Assoclntlou
of Hosiery and Underwenr Manufactur
ers, have severelv criticized Governor
Harding, of the Federal Reserve
Ilnnk. for what thev term his
"cnmn'ili'n tn force deflation bv stnnPlttX
of buyintr." They have made public their
letter to him. This refusal of the public
to buy nt present high prices, tne.v de
clare, hns "ruined" home of the mill.
PREPAREDNESS HIS MOTTO
