CRACKER TRUST WINS Bate
DEAL MADE WITH TRUSTS-ENE-
MY MEANS ADVANCE IN BIS
QUITS AND SWEET GOODS.

Owing to a deal being completed
whereby the Inland Cracker company
of Spokane entered the biscuit trust,
Walla Wallans will pay more for their
crackers of all kinds from now on.
For some years there has been a
war on between the Inland Cracker
company and those companies regard
ed as being in the cracker combination
which has headquarters in Portland.
The biggest fight was between the In
land and the Washington Cracker
company of Spokane, the latter being
supposed to have the financial support
of the cracker trust. This support en-
abled it to undersell the Inland, but
higher price as people bought the pro-
duct in the belief that the Inland COM
pany would steadily fight the trust
and prevent a trust rule.
Inland Company Agrees.
But after three years of war an
agreement was entered into at Spo-
kane to raise the prices by both the
Inland and Washington companies.
Manager F. w. Kiesling of the Inland
company said:
1--WE have both made efforts for some
time past to bring about an amicable
understanding, thinking it would be to
the best interests of all concerned. AS
to the rumor that we have consoli-
dated, that is all wrong. We have
agreed on prices, and will adopt the
price lists which were in force three
it. There was no written agreement
drawn"
"Will this verbal agreement result
in higher prices?"
Eyes a little For two or three
years past some of our manufactured
goods have sold actually below cost.
and all because of the personal feel
ing between the two companies. Such
a feeling in business matters is not
good for any of us, and we have final
ly decided to eliminate that part OF
it entirely. All disputes have been set
tied and we are going to give each
other a chance to make a little money.
We will get no more than the prices
that we got three years ago"
Grocers May Object.
"Of course we expect that the
grocers and other retail stores who
handle our goods will be opposed to
any advance in the cost of goods, but
they have been reaping a rich har-
vest on some of our lines at our ex-
pense There will still be a profit in
handling the goods, but not so much
on certain brands. We could not con-
tinue as the situation has been, and
we think to allow a reasonable margin
for the retail trade and make lit
tie money ourselves is no more than
right We do not want it all. We
want what is right from our business,
and will do what is right toward our
trade Heretofore we have not been
getting what was right

Washington, Feb. 5.-That beer is a
food product and that it is fast coming
to be classed with the least harmful
beverages, is a claim now receiving the
close attention of the government ex-
perts connected with the department
of agriculture. The department of
agriculture is. and has been for some
time, pursuing an investigation of the
nature, effects and value of beer.
Doctor W. H. Wiley, chief of the
bureau of chemistry, of the depart
ment Of agriculture. is especially inter-
ested in the subject, having referred to
it frequently in lectures. Doctor Wiley
Is not vet ready to make any state
ment or report on the question as 70
whether beer is food product.
81 will say this much he said to-
day, that the use of beer and wines
aids in the work of temperance. To
illustrate, there is not near SO much
intemperance in Germany, where wines
and beer are used to such great ex-
tent, as there is in Scotland. where
spirituous liquors are principally
used"

him before meals, after meals and be-
tween meals. 1t is on his brain. 1t
robs him of his cheer and interferes
with his daily work. Around him is a
dark spirit which presses itself for

hundred sixty-five men were found to
be present, and thirty-four absent, a
total of 799. The women are not count
ed in the muster, as the government
pays the state nothing for their sup
port. In the home are seven other
members who are not mustered. They
are men who did not serve in any war,
unless possibly some of the Indian
wars, but usually regular army men
who enlisted after the close of the

Accident Association For ,irav-
cling Men to Be Formed BY
Statesmen of State
MEETING HERE FEBRUARY II
Canvass for Charter Members Has
Been in Progress for Week, and
100 Have Already Signed-Head9uar-
tiers Will Probably Be Established
Here-claim 1t Is Not a Fight
Against the Iowa Association.

A movement which has been quiet
ly in progress among the tlaVeMhs
men of this city for the past ten days,
gives promise of resulting in the or
ganization of a travelling mems acct
dent insurance company, similar to the
Iowa State Travelling Mems Assocla-
ton, of Des Moines. Plans have pro-
crossed SO far that meeting is to be
held in this city on Saturday, Feb, ~,
when the business of organization Will
be commenced. Already more than l0o
have signed applications for charter
membership and while the canvass has
as yet been limited, those who are
most interested in 1t say that very
few Of the travelling men approached
have refused to become members.
The proposed association will prob
ably be incorporated under the name
of the Hawkeye Commercial Mems
Association, and the headquarters OF
the company will probably be estab-
lished here. The association Is to be
built following the plan of the Iowa
and Illinois companies, retaining the
best features of both, and diseard1ns
those believed to be objectionable.
Some of the chief ideas to be incor-
porated into the constitution and by
laws of the company will be. according
to those who are pushing it, the for
nation of purely mutual association,
which will not only pay for the acct
dental but natural death of it's mem-
bers. Only travelling men, and solicit
tors will be eligible to membership,
and all of the directors must be resi-
dents Of the state. The secretary's
salary is not to exceed $4,000, and the
annual conventions are to be held in
any city in Iowa.
Notices of the meeting for organ1za-
ton will be sent broadcast turnout the
state this week, and lit is expected the
meeting will be largely attended.
Prominently identified with the move
ment are w. ]. Van Derveer and A. G.
johnson, both of this city, altho a large
number of those who travel out of here
are soliciting memberships. 1t is said
that travelling men of Waterloo and
Dubuque are CO. operating with the To-
cal men.
Deny Fight on Iowa State.
1t is denied by those who aae push
ing the new association that it is not
primarily fight against the Iowa
State Travelling Mems Association. all
tho they admit that it is expected the
membership will be drawn largely
from that company and the Illinois
company which is similar to it.
While this is vouched for it is adj
mitted at the same time that the man
ner in which those living outside of
Des Moines were treated at the recent
annual meeting of the Iowa association
has caused great deal of Ill feel
ing here and other places in
the state 1t is also claimed that
there has been undue and unnecessary
extravaganza in the management of
the Iowa associations affairs, which is
given as another cause for dissatis-
faction.
