Well Attended by Retail Men
From Kansas.
NEW POSTMASTER DIES
Editor of Moline Republican
and Present Postmaster
Passes Away Suddenly at His
Moline Home.

Kansas City, Jan. 20-The increased
attendance at the Retail Implement
Dealers association today was a source
of qualification. It is the biggest gath
ering of business men that has been
held in Kansas City for years.
One of the best speeches of the ses-
sion was that of E. r. Moses of Great
Bend, Kan. He urged that all of the
highty and irresponsible dealers be
frowned npon and driven out of bust
ness.
The members of the association will
visit Swift's packing houses this after
noon.
The following resolutions were adopt
Whereas, This association realizes
and appreciates the concession made by
the Jobbers of implements and vehicles
IN the matter of drayage; and,
Whereas, Said concessions are of in
caIculable pecuniary benefit to the re-
tail trade, and as a token of apprecia-
ton and good will to said jobbers be it
Resolved, That we, as individual
members of the association, pledge our
selves and our influence to the end that
we will settle our balances due said
JObberS in current exchange, and that
1T is the sense of this association that
we Will individually abide by the rec
ommendatiOn embodied in this resolu-
ton, that there may be an end to the
stamping in red letters on the bottom
of our monthly statements: DO not
send local checks"
Mr.. Madden of HAYS Citv objected
He said his method of paying his bills
was his own, and he did not think it
germane the association should dictate
how he should remit, whether by local
check, eastern or Kansas City ex-
change. But when the nays were call
ed on the resolution he remained glued
to his chair and went with the crowd.
The body moved as a unit.
This over, the association prepared to
move as unit on another tack. What
about the fellow who will not join US %
was asked. I'VE come here every year
and are under expense, we save dray-
age and obtain other benefits all of
which he shares, yet he remains outside
the pale, and, l ask what of him?"
