MEN OF BUSINESS.

No more important gathering OF men
of business has ever assembled in Amer
lea than that which will assemble In
Boston today on the occasion
of the fifth annual convention CT the Ma
tionsl Association Of Manufacturers. Ii
promises to be not only the largest as
semi bly, OF the kind ever held but the
most practical The delegates repre-
sent every branch of industry and
every section of the country.
The National Association of Manu-
facturers was organized at Cincipna.1
several years ago at time when Just
such an organization was needed to
demonstrate the value of intelligent
organization in pushing foreign trade.
Since its organization the association
has wideued Its scope and increased its
mem bership until it has become the
largest and most Influential CONNER
cial organization in America. 1t en-
braces in it's membership over a thou
sand of the largest manufacturing in
terests of the country and during the
period of it's existence it has constant
ly put forth it's trongest efforts to in
crease Americas export trade in man
ufactures.
Included in the work OF the assOcia-
ton are the promotion of a department
of commerce and industry: the reform
of the patent laws; uniform freight
classification for all transportation
lines; the promotion of the inter-
oceanic canal; the restoration OF the
merchant marine; the prom Otion of the
principle of commercial reciprocity IS
a means of encouraging trade with
other nations: the improvement OF the
consular service; and the establish
ment of sample warehouses in foreign
lands.
The visitors to the conver tiop will
include the members of the Nation al
Association of Wool Growers. the New
England Shoe and Leather association
and the American Paper and Pulp
association, all of which associations
will meet in Boston during the week.
Following so soon after the meeting
of the Trans-Mississippi congress at
Houston it emphasizes the value to the
country at large of meetings of business
men and must.impress upon our local
chamb Der of commerce the wisdom of
the work progressing here through the
of that body.

into the United States senate by SEN

and unsafe character of the present

A WRITER in Harper's Weekly calls
attention to the fact that makers OF au-
tomobiles have so far neglected what
mi ght prove to be the most potent de-
tail In bringing about their universal
adoption. 1t is that they may be used OF
a Sunday by the owner without neces-
sarily engaging the services OF coach
man, groom or stsblemau. and thus dis
arm the complaint thatdriving on Sum
day to church or for pleasure must be
foregone, as it makes too much work
for servants on Sunday. But there
must be nothing but happiness con.
nected with this method of going to
church. One poor little clergyman, In
a too pious town, 1. is reported by the
New Orleans Picayune, has been ask
ed to send in his resignation because
he rode to church on bicycle.
