1 TRUTH I " ' iv . " ' - i , i i MfiB M HHlVVHtt h PY GOODS STMA I OUR GREAT SBMl-flNNUflL I - BEGINS MONDAY, JULY 1 I and is Destined to be the Most Colossal Sacrifice Sale and I Greatest Money Saving Event ever known in Salt Lake City I JOIN THE CROWDS! I FOR HERE IS THE GREATEST TRADE EVENT THAT EVER MADE ITS DEBUT IN THIS CITY. A STOCK REDUCING H MOVEMENT UNPARALLELED IN AUDACITY. A SALE THAT IS BOUND TO GIVE OUR FRIENDS ANOTHER PROOF OF H THIS STORE'S AGGRESSIVE LEADERSHIP.1 ABNORMAL CONDITIONS MAKE ABNORMAL PRICE CUTTING IMPERATIVE BACKWARD WEATHER AND CONTINUED RAINS HAVE NOT BEEN CONDUCIVE TO NATURAL STOCK REDUCING, SO M WE MUST FORCE THE SELLING BY THE ALLURING MEANS OF POWERFUL RUINOUS PRICE-CUTTING AND RECK- I LESS SACRIFICING OF HIGH-CLASS MERCHANDISE. NOTHING IN THE ENTIRE ESTABLISHMENT BEING EXCEPTED H CAPITAL AND LABOR. i ' The Wall Stre.e' Journal of recent date says: "Organized capital has recently gone through a very severe exper ience. It has been arraigned before the courts and commissions and in- vestigating committees and charged with grave offences against law and order. These offenses have been de ceit, manipulation, unfair competition oppressive monopoly, bribery of le gislatures and of courts and corrup tions of elections. " Organized labor ij now passing through a similar experience. It is '$ true that the great bulk of organized labor is not involved in the crimes charged against Haywood and his as sociates in the Western Federation of Miners. But neither was the bulk of American business men involved in the insurance and railroad scand als. Nevertheless, the reputation of corporate business has suffered from these scandals, and organized labor must necessarily bear something of the odium which attaches to the crimes of violence charged against the leaders of the Western Fcdera- $2 tion of Miners. If the story told by Orchard can be substantiated, then it appears that organized labor has attempted by assassination to ac complish the same results which or ganized capital has sought to accom plish by bribery and cut-throat of competition." THE REAL QUESTION. The increase in suicide is one of the alarming facts of the time. Reaction from the intense life which men are living, the disappointment which of ten follows the mad rush for wealth, and the lessening, in many lives, of the restraints of religious faith, arc given as some of the more prominent causes. To meet men who are discouraged, and ' comfort them, the Salvation Army has established bureaus in sev eral cities, which report a measure of success. Such success as they have had teaches this lesson: that many men and women to whom, in hours of depression, life seems not worth living, arc not in conditions of permanent hopelessness, but may be saved to happier lives than, in their discouragement, seems possible. A young man who had known a bit ter disappointment, and to whom the heavens seemed black and the earth barren, went, in his despair, to a friend. The friend was sure that, deep and, real as was the sorrow, there was much left in life for the young man; and he talked with him so kind ly, so hopefully, si- .rnly, that the young man rose in ai.amc and 'grati tude, and took uphis work again. " 'To be .or not to be, that is the question' " moodily quoted the young man. "No, that is not he question at all," was the stern reply. "What do you mcanf" "Precisely this: that the question whether wc arc to be or not is a question wc were not asked at the beginning, and have no right to raise. Wc cannot discuss it with knowledge either of the joys that remain or the duties that arc impending, nor yet the future shame that awaits us in some after life for the cowardly shirking of the burdens of this one. " 'To be or not to be' is the ques tion of the stage, propounded by a half-crazed character in a plot, the meaning of which is still a question debated by critics. The question for the real man, on the stage of life is, 'Being, how shall. 1 make the most of life?' For wc are, whether we like it or not; and we have no right but to be, and to be the most and best we can." "I hadn't thought of it in just that way," replied the young man. "Life is a discipline," his friend went on. "It is not given us for our own pleasure alone, nor can any man live it or end it and affect himself alone. Life is the gift of God; and no man, livcth unto himself, and no man dicth unto himself. "Life is before you, long years of it, I hope. Duties are before you. which God has kept in waiting long for the time when men could live as strong and capable lives as men may live today. Earth is before you, with needs and hopes and sorrows, sor rows deeper than your own, and need ing your strength and comfort. "Whether you shall be or not is H God's question, and for the present H you know His answer. Your qucs- H tion is what you shall be, and how." lYouth's Companion. H c H A GOOD CITIZEN PASSED AWAY. Mrs. Harold E. Schiller and little I daughter, Carolyn, left on Thursday I for Warrensburg, Mo., called thither H by a telegram stating that Mrs. I Schiller's father, Mr. Joseph Colin I was at the point of death. After they H had left on their sad journey another H dispatch came saying that he had I passed away. Mr. Colin was well fl known in Salt Lake, he having visited I here with Mr. and Mrs. Schiller scv- eral times. He was here a couple of H months ago and was taken suddenly I ill with heart trouble. He was taken H back to his home in Missouri in the I hope that the lower altitude would be more favorable to him, but he H never rallied to any appreciable ex- H tent. Mr. Colin was about 70 year? H of age, a most loveablc kindly gentle- I man of the old school. He served in I the Union Army during the civil war. I For many years he was the largest I and most prominent merchant in I Warrensburg. For some years hi' I sons have been associated with him I in business. His death is much re- I grctted as he was greatly respected I and loved by a large circle of friends I in Missouri. The interment will be at Hannibal, Mo., his former home. I
