LOCAL AND PERSONAL Sigma Chi. The gentlemen of the Sigma Chi fraternity entertained their lady friends in their elegantly furnished rooms last Friday evening.

INDIANA CASH GROCERY AND CROCKERY STORE, Complainant COMPETITORS, Defendants. Now and Whereas, We the INDIANA CASH GROCERY AND CROCKERY STORE are leading all others in our respective lines, we wish to submit our case to the people of Lawrence and Douglas County, as well as the State of Kansas; that we waive all unnecessary prejudice in our plea, all we wish is to state plain facts in as brief manner as could be done. Now, Your Honors, (the people) All we wish is to state facts just as they are, and will try and curtail on the expense of stationery, so we will commence at our subject in view: Questions and their Answers opposite. Why does Cash buy the most? Because you get a rebate. Why does your monthly bills seem so large? Because you don't get what you buy Why don't you get what you buy? Why don't you change your trading place for a cheaper one? Because you buy two-price goods. Why is this dreadful mortgage on you so binding? Why is your wife happy when you buy from us? Because they have a mortgage on you. Why should your pocket book be your guide and your eyes your judge? Because we give you your money's worth and she, your wife, has pin money left. Because you have no money left to go elsewhere and purchase. Because you would then be doing Justice to your families. Now, Your Honors, (the people) To close our argument. we will submit to you our case, and trust you will handle it with the true judgment most of you have always done to us. In referring to each of our points and facts, be sure you open the eyes of the blind and not allow themselves to be duped by men who call themselves grocerymen, and men who never knew the difference between an honest earned dollar and one of which is earned by the sweat of the brow. We are your sympathizers! We are your redeemers! Throw off your Mantle of Mortgage and be a free man in your country and true to your family. This cut-throat credit system has and will hang men and drive them to all crimes both to themselves as well as unto others. BUY FOR CASH and you owe no one. BE INDEPENDENT and you will be a man both to yourself and country. Untie the bonds that have kept you a slave. Follow our example and you wil be what we are: KING OF THEM ALL!
