Alger broad hint to get out of the
cabinet, but it will be noticed that

Retailers VIII suffer.

NEW YORK, November 25.-P. Il. DOVE,
president Of the Commercial Travellers
National League has received the fol-
lowing letter from Senator William Z.
Chandler, Of New Hampshire:
AN attempt has been made to break
the force OK the opposition by CONNER
clal travellers TO trusts by insisting that
it is wise 70 dispense, If possible. with
the expense of the travellers, in order to
lessen the cost Of producing and selling
articles, and thereupon to furnish them
to consumers at lower prices.
"Of course, anything that fairly lessons
the cost Of production Of any article is
a benefit 10 society, and in the long run
the consumer will succeed. II competition
prevails, in getting his share OF the
saving.
But can the cost of the commercial
travellers be saved under any method Of
trade reasonably attainabe? / answer no.
The retail dealer must do two things be-
fore buying his stock-tirst, see samples,
and, second, talk about prices with the
wholesale vendor. Under the old system
the retailers were continually travelling
To and from the cities and the factories,
i'm order 10 examine goods and discuss
prices before giving :heir orders. The now
go the rounds of the retailers has given
out. simply because it is cheaper than
the old method Nothing else has brought
about the change. Ii Is the progress or
economy in trade.
at is quite true that If trusts arc al
lowed TO destroy competition. CONNER
cial travellers may be dispensed with. But
if competition is 10 continue 10 rule as
the life Of trade, the commercial travel
lers Will remain an indispensable part OF
such competition. II competition must 20.
the commercial travellers must go-not
travelling, but out of existence. Yet, II
is certain that even then. under trusts
without competition or commercial travel
lers. the various savings VIII not all go
20 the consumers. They viii be used TO
increase the profits OF the trusts. These
will get the lions share. and retail prices
are sure 10 rise So the commercial
travellers are lighting not only for tnem-
selves, but FOR the consumers. AS a pure
economic question. the position OF the
commercial travellers is impregnable.'
