A representative Of one Of the
largest mail order houses in Chicago
recently gave his experience TO a
meeting Of newspaper men. He said
that the mail order business depends
entirely upon advertising. He made
one remark that merchants should
heed. He says they took the local
papers and directed their special
efforts to communicate where the
merchants are not up-to-date adver-
tisers. II he found that any line Of
business in any town or city was not
well advertised. as for instance. fur
niture. he said that they flooded that
territory with their literature and
always with satisfactory results. He
said he believed it true that country
merchants could greatly cripple the
mail order houses If they would ad-
vertise freely and in the right man.
ner. He said that every advertise
ment should describe minutely the
article to be sold and quote the
prices. He thought as a general
proposition that advertising that
does not quote prices is thrown away
or largely so. Here is food for
thought by merchants who feel the
effect Of the mail order houses.

Comparatively few people know

Department of Justice Has Made Complete Plans for Campaign
 Against oil Company.
POSSIBILITIES TO COMMENCE AT ONCE
Attack Is to be a Test Case as to Whether the sherman Law Can Suppress n Mo- nopoiy and Has nos Connection W iti, Rebate Cases Already Instituted in Chicago and Jamestown. M.

Washington, Sept. 29.-Complete )lans for a campaign against the Standard Oil company have been irawn in the department of justice Attorney General Moody has returned rom his vacation, and will take them ID at once, and if he approves, as 1t is expected he will, hostilities will be begun against the great oil monopoly IS quickly as possible and pressed with yigor until the supreme court determines whether the Standard Oil company can exist under the Sherman .nti-trust law. These plans of the ittack were drawn by Charles B. Morrison, of Chicago, ex-district at sorney for northern Illinois; Frank B. Kellogg, of St Paul, and Assistant Attorney General Purdy.
 The attack on Standard Oil will be a great test case as to whether the sherman law really can suppress a monopoly. The question involved is not like the Northern Securities proposition, and has never been de- cided by the supreme court. The Standard Oil company owns so much of the oil business as to be monop- ply. It has secured this through d. rect ownership and not by the usual trust process. Can man or a cor poration buy and own as much of everything as desired, regardless of whether this establishes monopolistic control? This is what the fight against the Standard oil will in volve.
 The new campaign has no relation Q the rebating cases pending in Chi cago and Jamestown, N Y. It is said the Chicago relating cases against the Standard company will be tried m October. Whether civil or criminal proceedings. or both, will be insti- tuted in the fight about to be opened Is not decided. Criminal proceedings would lead to fine or imprisonment. or both, while civil proceedings would aim to break up the monopoly through iuiunctiOn
