In The Letter Box TAXING WORKERS Editor, Daily News: Taxing the people's food and clothes by means of a tariff on importations is shifting the bur den of taxation from the rich to the poor. Xo amount of argument or juggling of figures will change the truth, of that statement. The more manufactured goods are protected, the higher o the prices and the workers, who are the majority of the people, pay most of the tax. liaising tariff is just a scheme for laying a heavier burden on the already over-burdened working man of this couwtry. I hope none of my fellow workers will bi led away by the roundabout arguments of the Tories and vote for higher tariff. It is a vole against their own interests. - LAitortFJl.

TO THE PUBLIC: When the Montreal Importers opened up for business In Prince Rupert, their goods were all marked at Montreal prices and every shipment that we get from the eastern manufacturers and further shipments to complete our stock are coming Tn every week Montreal prices govern them all. We are taking this opportunity to explain how we do IL We buy direct from the manufacturers. We can do this. by taking quantity lots as. we have faith enough In Prince Rupert to believo that we can obtain tho necei-sary turnover of such quantities. And we mark our goods at such prices as to obtain the turnover. For instance, this week we have received shipments of men's clothing from such famous firms as Samuel Hart and Freedman A Co., both clothing manufacturers, and the prices at which they are marke-J now in our store will compete with any firm In this whole broad Dominion. Of course, there Is a little extra freight from Montreal, but we can still sell at Montreal prices because we have no Montreal rental to pay here. We have our own buyers In Montreal who know our requirements and are In touch with the manufacturers all the time. Many people send away for goods thinking they can get them cheaper. They don't need to do that now. We are here. We want you to appreciate our position. We want a share of your business we need your support to enable us to stay here. We have the goods at Montreal prices and price Is what so many people send away for. If we give you Montreal prices, we get your business and we are both satisfied. Inspect our stock for yourself, see our goods and compare our Montreal prices with any others you like, and If you buy so much the better for us both. Your, vegr trulyj,, .
