Entered at the postoffice in Decatur, .ndlana, as second class matter. Mr. Bryan is credited with the statement that J. P. Morgan is now endeavoring to do what ills astute father—the late J. P. Morgan, sr„ —said was impossible, that is, unscramble the eggs. The task is not impossible, but it is stupendous, and that the house of Morgan lias even attempted it is of vast significance. "There is no business sense,” observes the Boston News letter, "in kicking against the picks. If certain theories as to competition and as to interlocking directorate— I with all the power of lawmaking and law enforcing behind them—are for some years to prevail or go througli experimentation. It were folly to attempt a losing obstructive fight. Especially so when these theories are entertained in a spirit far more con-| structive and open to common sense compromise or adjustment than they are destructively hostile. Both sides are now accepting the chance to be | gracious as well as reasonable.” — NOTICE TO MILK DEALERS. All persons selling milk, cream or buttermilk within the city of Decatur.
