WASHINGTON, D C„ Sept. 24.-—
While the country has been watch
ing with interest the activities ol
the militant suffragettes and the
extraordinary police tactics in this
city against the pickets to which
President Wilson has himself again
and again stated he did not object,
the suffragettes have brought their
demand l'er the right to vote suc
cessfully botore Congret.s. Today
it may be said that the suffrage i
question came to a shown down. This |
will be put before Congress today j
by Charles Pou, chairman of the j
House Rule Committee. He is bring-!
iug in a special rule to provide for '
the creation of a woman suffrage J
committee of the house.
The f'ght will come on the adop
tion of this rule by the House and
its defeat would lie a signal defeat
for tlie supporters of 11re suffrage.
The suffragists demand the in
troduction of the Susan B. Anthony
amendment.
The great weight of opposition
exists in many eastern states which
fear the smashing of their strong
political machines in the event of
women voting.
This is especially the case in
Pennsylvania and in Xew York and j
j
the suffrage has no bitterer enemy •
than Tammany. ] 2

If candor and straight-forwardness is going to deprive us
of an individual sale v.e may safely conclude that the sale better
he sacrificed than that the cliarci. r of our store he placed in
jeopardy.
There is but otic basis upon which 1 lie relations between 8
the merchant and customer may be safely placed and that is t
upon the foundation of confidence. I
One lie may not destroy that foundation but it develops a I
fracture that require many more libs to conceal that the struc
ture is bound to disintegrate.
We must pay a certain market price for our goods and
we must sell same at a little more than what we pay for them
to be able to maintain our structure efficiently and to pre
serve same in order to aid in the present and future develop
ment of our community.
