Persons In k class will be interthe ested In hearing that Btuyvesant Fish, former president of th Illinois Centra Railway, says this: In my opinion it Is really harder for persons who have bad an Income of, say, $250,000 a year, to coma down to live on a $50,000 year basis, than a man who ha been earning $15 a week to acoustom himself to living on fifteen-a-wee- a week." In Fish's opinion the relative suffer- 510 ing is greater. The big financier made this statement to a reporter aa he boarded the steamship New Tork of the American line, with Mrs. Fish, bound to tour Europe in their automobile until September. They have no fixed Itinerary. There is no indication of revlvalof business, went on Flair, with an air of gloom. I based this observation on bondl'.iona as they exist in New CHANGE TACTICS ' ft.

Hundreds of women are using bicycles' and. everyone carries the standard. 'The. National Union of Woman Suffrage is organising a house to' house' canvass to reach every corner of the' empire.

There are many who are unable to find the needed cash. Having stated the outlook aa one who looks through the windows of a cottage at Newport, Fish continued: The railroads, this year will show big earnings, but the net earnings will be low, this being due to the excessive wages demanded by labor. There are signs of splendid crops, but the farmers will get most of the profits. The rmy ot the unemployed will grow. Rich men who stay In this country will be heavily bled for campaign' 'contributions on the plea that the election of some candidate who can restore normal conditions must be assured.
