uercal interests Of the country will be interested
in the information that largely through the efforts
OF South Dakota men arrangements have been
completed for the formation Of a company whose
purpose it will be to throttle and ultimately 10
abate the growth in business Of the big catalogue
houses Of the country. The company Will have
branches in practically every State in the Union.
Capital to the amount of about s4o0o0000 has been
enlisted in New-York City in furtherance OF the
plan to enter into competition with the big cata-
logue houses. 1t is proposed by those behind the
movement to make catalogue house, so to speak,
Of every retail house in the country, that it can
successfully compete in goods and prices with any
OF the so-called cheap catalogue houses and will at
all times have the prestige of large cash capital
and experienced men TO buy and furnish these
goods wares and merchandise for competing pur-
poses.
This plan will be vigorously followed out, and
the work of perfecting details with retail merchants
already has been begun South Dakota and will
continue by States throughout the United states
When so perfected, 1t is declared by those behind
the movement. the plan Will hold the commercial
trade OF the country in its regular channel afford
ing all dealers fair chance of competition. ThoSo
who have formed the company say It Is a fight for
supremacy between the manufacturer, wholesaler
and the retailer the one side and the big cata-
logue houses on the other
