Scores Harvester Company.

Death so the business of the retail
Iowa implement dealer is seen by O.
v. Eckert, a prominent Northwood
merchant, in his speech before the an
nual meeting of the Implement Deal
ers' association of Iowa, in this city.
Mr.. Eckert sounds this keynote be-
cause of the bitter contest which is
now on between his association and
the International Harvester company.
The argument of the Northwood man
brought out one Of the most spirited
debates which has ever been seen at
convention of the association. Mr..
Eckert reviewed the history of the
giant merger of the harvester compa-
MES into the $120,000,000 combine and
declared that it would not be long be-
fore the middleman was thing of the
past. A representative of the Inter
national company, who was present at
the meeting, assured the dealers that
his concern had only the interests OF
the retailers at heart, and would not
encroach on their rights. 1t was
pointed out in the meeting that the
contract for 1905 between the COM
pany and dealer is more drastic than
ever before, and the speaker declared
that the retailer simply furnished a
storehouse for his employer if he
signed the agreement as presented
Should the association resort to decid-
ed action ON this question, it is almost
certain that the prolonged war be-
tween the harvester people and the
implement dealers will develop into a
conflict, which for fierceness. would be
unequaled in the history of the state

"Lakeview has several business men

that Reno leads anything they have

Baker City the leading mining
town of Oregon is contributing some
of her best mining men to Tonopah

leading capitalists of Baker City pass
ed through Reno for Tonopah last
week to look over the field and Will

State in nearly every point The mines

the great drawbacks to that district
is that there has been too MUCH boom
