THE MAIL ORDER BUSINESS

The Fairhaven Herald says that "the
encroachmnt of the mail order houses
on the business of the local tradesman
has reached point where it merits the
serious consideration of all retailers.
AS the basis of the mail order business
is the belief among the public that they
get better rates by patronizing the mail
order houses, so the logical way 20
counteract this influence is to convince
the public of the fallacy of their claims
Some of our merchants are doing this
effectively"
The Herald then proceeds to advise
its readers in the same manner that the
ISLANDER has frequently done, viz, to
deal with home merchalt Is OH the same
conditions that catalogue houses exact
and see if you don't get just as good
prices, besides the satisfaction of help.
ing to build up the trade of local deal
ers, who bear a large share OF the
burden of taxation, buy your products
and extend you credit when you need
it, which the Eastern catalogue houses
will never do. They invariably insist
upon payment in advance. They never
pay cent to improve the roads over
which the farmer hauls his products
to tide water; they contribute nothing
to the support of town or county gov
eminent, schools, charitable, penal or
d reformatory institutions, all Of which
derive their support from taxation
which the local merchant cannot escape
if he would. All these things should
be borne in mind and their advantages
weighed against the little apparent
saving in the first cost of al article that
may sometimes be effected by dealing
with catalogue firms in the great cities.
There is moral aspect TO the question
that ought not to be disregarded. Your
home dealer is at least entitled to the
first chance to serve you upon the same
conditions that the catalogue mer
chants impose.
In small communities it is of course
out of the question for The home dealer
to carry complete line of all the vari.
pus classes of merchandise required to
supply the wants of the ordinary fam.
lily, but what they do not carry can al.
most invariably i'm some neighboring
city, whose merchants are purchasers
of home products and large contributors
through the taxes they pay, toward the
support of state government and al
state institutions i'm the benefits O
which the people of all counties share
alike. The ISLANDER carries the ad
yertisements of few such firms-witf
one exception dealing in special lines
whom we know to be reliable. None
of them could afford to impose upor
their patrons and none of them woult
il the could. If your home merchant
can't supply you they can and they
will give you satisfaction.
