EDITORS AGREE ON FREE psLvEaY.

1t would have interested the farmers
md merchants of Iowa If they couiI al
have heard the discussion OF rural ace
delivery and Its benefits that took flecc
in the convention of Upper Des Mo.ncs
and Northeastern Iowa editors at Ma
son City Friday morning. The associa-
tons are composed of editors Of the
county weeklies and 1t was the con-
tention of those who led in the discus
sion with prepared papers that the free
delivery of mail in rural districts was
injuring the business of the local pa
per, subjecting the local merchant to
unjust competition and doing the farm,
ers no good because they were still
farther Isolated from their fellows when
there was no longer need for the week.
~ visit to town. Because farmers with
free delivery would not visit SO much
as formerly insanity would increase;
because they did not come to town so
often they would buy more OF the mail
order houses and because mail was de-
uvered to them every day they would
read daily newspa pers.
Had this been the end Of the discus
sion the meeting at Mason City would
have been sensational, but the reading
of the first paper had not been fairly
finished when half dozen volunteers
were on their feet to argue to the con-
trary. Ed Madigan, editor OF the
GAINESVILLE Star and postmaster at that
place, was the most vigorous and
pointed in his remarks. He prefaced
them by saying that rural free deliv-
cry was here to stay, that it was SO
greatly enjoyed by the farmers that 1t
was increasing the price of farm lands

editors were wasting their time protest.

livered some personal experiences
which were interesting. He admitted
that the farmers We're reading lots of

subscriber to his weekly because of ru-
raj delivery and had actually gained AS
postmaster he realized that the mail
order houses were sending out vast
amounts of advertising literature, but
1t was his opinion that the local mer-
chant could do the same thing and he
was tired of this business Of merchants
sitting down and trusting to the local
paper to fight their battles while the
outside fellow went after the business.
He believed that If the local merchant
would advertise and hustle for trade
rural delivery would actually help him.

remarks indicated that the majority Of
