Of course we should be grateful that it is a medium which can ans-- wer him rather than some poor widow who HKad became involved with him in connection with that scandalous International Harvester transaction which almost resulted in Swift's in-- "carceration in prison on a charge of swindle. i Chailing: A few days ago the Sun got a let-- ter from Swift--knowing that every-- body in Lake county reads the Sun or the weekly Independent, he wrote to see if we would accept an adver-- tisement from him telling that he is seeking re--election. We told him we would--PROVIDING that he paid for it in advance.. For, we recalled that four years ago when Swift ran we had .trouble collecting our bill for 'his advertising--he took the stand that we charged him more than some-- body else~r The fact was we charged him the same rate as we did all other political advertising, a class of ad-- ¥ertising that justifies a higher rate than local merchants>are given; the Sun always has charged all campaign matter at a slightly higher rate than store advertising. And.Swift's was no exception.< He was charged the same What are we driving at? Well, here 'tis: © : But, apparently being in the habit of getting something for nothing, he didn't like the price, kicked on it and said we charged. him more than oth-- ers; charged him for some ads which HE didn't order in, etect .

And so far as our collecting in. ad-- vance goes, dear old Rod, we'd just like to let it be known that it's only the untrustworthy, the ones we have to threaten with suits for collections that we demand payment in advance from;. Waukegan merthants, reliable and honest public officials seeking office; newsboys, housewives and others--THEY tg have plenty of credit with the Sun up-- to the time we ir number and they try to jip us «then THHY too, pay in --ad-- vance for Sun service. And so, be-- cause you are in the latter class, of course it's cash--in--advance. No, we such "a large amount of property" in THENR hands? Again we thank those who have advertised the fact that somebody has that much confidence wouldn't consent to put it up in es-- crow because we'd be afraid you'd slip arqund anrid hoodwink the banker and get it away from him before we had a chance to collect. And so, so far as you are concerned, dear old Rod, we'll run your adver-- tisement if its is paid in advance, and, just so there won't be any trouble about it, the chtck must be certified; if not certified, then the=--advertise ment wiltk>--be held to determine whether it's good or whether you stop payment on it. Of course a 3oaul money order or express order will do just as well as a certified check, BUT this time we're goinato make sure of getting our money #ithout threaten-- ing suit; and our fate to you, Rod, is just the same as it is to other candi-- dates in the present campaign.
