The Commercial Union

81 The meeting of the Commercial Union
last Friday evening was one Of the bus
lest that body has enjoyed for quite q
season. Much of the discussion, howev-
er, an accommoda dating press has consent
ed to suppress for the present upon the
theory, presumably, that what the peo-
pie do not know will not hurt them.
Among the earller matters brought be-
fore the union was request for aid to
enable the FIRE department in sending q
delegation nine of its members to the
|State Firemen's Convention to be held
at Winona June 1s, Is and IA. The OBJ
ject Of the delegation being to secure
the annual session Of the convention for
this city in 1908. The constitution Of
the association provides that the home
city Of the member elected second vice.
president this year shall be The place of
holding thes convention in three years,
hence the hustle at the present meeting
will be to elect that official from New
Ulm and thereby settle the place of hold
ing the meeting In 1908. By unanl-
nous vote the Union appropriated the
sum of $50 for the purpose, the city
council having previously appropriated
$3.50.

NOTES OF The GAME.
The Concordia Band, which so patri-
seticaily donated It's services for the ben
lift Of the public library, IS entitled to
the thanks Of the patrons of the game
for the excellent music discoursed. In
fact they played better and oftener than
some bands which are payed for their
work. a4= s ai.-..
With the thermometer at 90 in the
shade and the wind blowing at 80 miles
an hour it is not much more pleasant to
watch an amateur game than tits to
play one but the people IN the grand
stand were q good natured lot.
No one was fined on account Of home
runs.
Umpire SaYcrien was as impartial as
5it was possible to be, although he did
Eget#a little mixed at one time, doubtless
owing to the fact that he had his eye on
some one in the grand stand.

Stand by Your Home Dealers.

Stand by Your Home Dealers.
The following article from the Blue
Earth Post is SO to the point that we re-
produce it entire.
County merchants think they fare
hard between the assessor, the gouge
game order man, and the city depart
5ment stores. An attempt is being nlde
to secure the passage of q bill through
Congress establishing a. package post
system by which large packages may be
carried through the mails.
At present packages weighing four
pounds may be sent, but this bill pro-
poses to provide for the carrying Of
Of much larger weight at greater re-
|duced price. While me advantage
would result to the reliant in thus
being able to escape the exorbitant ex-
press companies tariffs on small rush or
ders, yet his loss Of trade would far ex.
ceed any advantage thus derived.
We sincerely hope this bill will never
come to its passage.
Business is leaving the villages and
towns and making for the great centers
fast enought without Congress taking
q hand in building up these great com.
bines and trusts,
In the long run the people will suffer
for with competition destroyed the coun-
try is at the mercy of the great soulless
trusts.
The safe guard of our industrial de-
velopment must rest upon home trade.
The crossroad store, the village and
small Industries are the veins IN the in
dustrial body as necessary as the great
manufactures in our great cities.
Every time citizen buys bill of
goods from out of town he robs his local
merchant Of the means to carry a. large
stock and to sell at closer margin of
profit. In this way his supplies really
cost him more than they would if he
would stand by his local merchant pay
ing his cash, as he is obliged to do when
buying from out of town houses. e
But that is not all, nine times out of
ten the farmers who order direct or buy
through a travelling solicitor paying cash
is robbed.
Here is what some of our farmers who
have been caught on these sharpers'
hooks have said to some of our local
merchants; 81 can buy goods cheaper
than you can sell them but don't get
the. goods I buy.'' 49, ~.
''The samples shown by those fellows
are alright. They deliver the goods in
tight packages, are IN rush for the
money and when we've opened them af-
ter the fellows gone it's too late to mend
matters.''
